Kunichuu + “I wasn’t sure you were coming home.”
So. This prompt gave me hell. I don’t know why. I hope you enjoy this Anon! This one also went over 300 words and reached a max of 579. So uh whoops! I think I talk a lot. Lol.
“I wasn’t sure you were coming back.” Kunikida said in lue of greeting the man who had just entered their shared apartment.
“Neither was I.” Chuuya said, his voice tired and unsure, eyes focused on anywhere but Kunikida. His demeanor was calmer now, like the anger from their fight had drained away in the hour since he stormed out.
Kunikida’s own frustrations had ebbed away too and left dread behind it like a wave leaves the sand.
“Where did you go?” Kunikida asked, standing from the couch though not proceeding any further. Simply watched as Chuuya’s lips moved to form his response eyes still focused somewhere else, “Ane-san’s.”
The answer was like a kick in the gut. Not so much because it was surprising -because it wasn’t- but rather because the words filled him with apprehension. Ozaki has never approved of their relationship. If she’s heard they’ve fought, she may very well be on her way to make good on her promise to Kunikida about what she’d do if he ever hurt her protégé.
Though, he was more concerned about what she’d said to Chuuya than what she’d do to him.
“Are—,” Kunikida began but the redhead cut him off. Gaze finally coming to meet Kunikida’s own with a kind of determination that was startling.
The four words were spoken with so much conviction Kunikida could do little else but believe them.
The blond reopened his mouth but Chuuya shook his head, “No I’m not done speaking. We had a fight. But I’m not leaving you over it and I know that’s exactly what you were thinking. You said some shitty things and so did I. It doesn’t change anything for me and I doubt it changed your whole perspective on our relationship either.”
Quietly Kunikida said, “No. it hasn’t.”
For the first time that night, Chuuya cracked the smallest of smiles, the expression seemed somewhat relieved, “I’m sorry. I should have called you to update you on what was happening. It wasn’t fair for me to leave you in a lurch like that.”
Kunikida frowned slightly at the apology, “No. I knew what I was getting into when I asked you for a relationship. I apologize for how rude I was when you came home. It wasn’t right that I attacked you before you’d even entered the room.”
Chuuya’s expression shifted again, the small smile tilting into a smirk as he replied, “That was a dick move.”
Giving into a fond laugh which was more like an amused breath than a laugh Kunikida said, “It was.”
Stepping away from the front door Chuuya came over to Kunikida, stopped just short of touching distance. Just close enough that Kunikida could feel the heat which always seemed to emanate from Chuuya’s body in waves.
“I’m obviously not perfect,” Chuuya said, eyes flicking between Kunikida’s as he continued, “But I’ll try harder to be more careful and update you on what’s going on so you don’t ever feel like you’re being left in the dark about my safety.”
The agency member nodded, “And I’ll try not to get so frustrated with you when you can’t.”
Chuuya smiled, a full and genuine smile before stepping into Kunikida’s embrace.
