This was just what I needed ♥



Cold water splashes up Kusano’s legs, droplets seeping into his pants and chilling his skin. Yet he finds that he doesn’t care, can’t care. The sun burning overhead and the soft warmth of Tegoshi on his back is more than enough to keep away the worst of the bite.

They strike a pose for the camera, peace signs and ridiculous faces that betray their true ages and it’s times like this, Kusano muses as he hears Tegoshi laughing openly above him, that make him truly appreciate his relationship with the boy.

He selfishly wishes they could stay here forever, could feel the sand between his toes and Tegoshi’s breath on the back of his neck for eternity. He knows it’s helpless, a frivolous desire, but Kusano reasons to himself that they’re still only young, still only seventeen, and he figures that if anyone is allowed to dream, it’s them.

When they leave the water later, shoulders red and peeling, cheeks warm and aching, they collapse as one into the cooling sand. Kusano allows Tegoshi to curl in closer, head against his shoulder, as he runs his fingers slowly through the other boy’s wet hair. There’s sand in his pants and salt crusting at the ends of his eyelashes, but Kusano doesn’t have the heart to move, doesn’t have the heart to pull that content smile from Tegoshi’s lips.

Kusano isn’t sure how much time passes, but he’s happy to stay exactly where he is for now. Tegoshi’s breath comes in soft puffs against his skin, his heart beat thumping quietly against Kusano’s fingertips.

It isn’t paradise and it certainly isn’t perfect but, Kusano thinks as he leans his head against Tegoshi’s and allows his eyes to drift shut, it’s close enough.

When reality is this sweet, who needs dreams anyway?

this is wonderful Amy. I feel you in this one. You know, about that comment on that Kusatego in progress where I said I couldn't feel you in it? Well, I definitely can in this one. And it came out beautiful. Short, but beautiful. I've always admired your choice of words ♥
