Ban and Hoji were both laying on the ground slightly panting after their little tussle and weren’t able to get up. Their teammates were all around them looking down at them with smiles.
“Need any help up, Ban, Hoji?” Sen asked the two
“Nah! We’re alright! Just head on out without us. We can catch up later.” Ban told picking his head up a bit.
“Alright. We will meet you both at the entrance to Neo-Deka Base in a bit.” Tetsu said herding his friends and teammates to the stairs leaving Ban and Hoji alone.
Ban smiled up at Tetsu as he gave a slight wink before joining the others going downstairs. Ban let his head fall back onto the roof of the building still tired.
Hoji turned to Ban with a raised eyebrow. “So why did you want them to leave?”
“Well the first part is because I am way too tired to try and stand at the moment. Ban said moving his hand to the pocket of his pants.
“Guess we are in the same boat on that one.” Hoji said turning his head back towards the sunset.
“The other reason is to ask you something way overdue.” Ban stated putting something in Hoji’s out stretched hand.
“What?” Hoji was confused before he turned his head to see a little black box in his hand and his eyes widened. “Ban?”
“Well are you going to open it?” Ban had a slightly nervous smile on his face.
Hoji moved to sit up a bit even though his body didn’t want to move and went to open the little box in his hand. As Hoji opened it he saw a simple silver ring with two red and one blue stone places nicely in the ring where diamonds would be placed. On the inside was also a little note with the words ‘Marry me?’ in Ban’s messy scrawl.
Hoji was shocked to see the ring and held the box out to Ban. Ban thinking this was a rejection for Hoji had turned his head up to the sky.
Hoji saw the upset look Ban was trying to hide. “Idiot. Are you going to put it on my finger or do I have to do it?”
“Is that a yes?” Ban asked in surprise
Ban’s shocked face before it morphed into an excited grin. Ban finding some extra energy pushed himself up and went to sit next to Hoji. Ban took the ring out of the box and placed the ring on Hoji’s left ring finger.
“I am so glad you said yes, aibou.” Ban’s smile never fading
“One don’t call me aibou, two Why wouldn’t I say yes?” Hoji raised his eyebrow. “I am guessing Tetsu and Miwa were in on this?”
“Yep, but I do not want your sister near me with a rusty spoon.” Ban shivered remembering that lovely conversation with Miwa.
“Well then don’t get her mad at you then.” Hoji said with a smirk.
“I won’t… But I will make sure you are always happy, Hoji.” Ban said leaning his forehead against Hoji’s
“You better, Ban.” Hoji leaned up so that his and Ban’s lips met in a sweet kiss
Ban smiled and returned the kiss with enthusiasm. After a few moments the two pulled back to breathe
“We better get going. The others will start to wonder where we are.” Hoji said getting up from the ground.
“They can wait a few more minutes, plus Kouhai can keep them entertained before we get barbeque.” Ban said grabbing Hoji’s hand and pulling the man into his lap.
Hoji rolled his eyes. “You just want another kiss don’t you.”
“Of course!” Ban leaned down to captures Hoji into another kiss.
Hoji shook his head before Ban could kiss him and returned the kiss. Hoji knew Ban would bug him until he got another kiss. The two once again pulled away from each other with small smiles.
“Oh right. Do you still want to keep our relationship secret? Or do you want to tell them about our engagement?” Ban asked
“Keep it secret. Boss and Swan-san just confessed their love. Let’s not spoil their moment.” Hoji got out of Ban’s lap and held a hand out. “Now let’s go before Tetsu goes insane.”
“Okay!” Ban took the offered hand and got up off the ground. “Let’s go. Although I am sure kouhai can keep them entertained or at least busy.”
“Well if it was you down there then you would be bored before Tetsu could try to keep you entertained.” Hoji said with a raised eyebrow
“Oh fine. Let’s go.” Ban pouted
The two kept their hands intertwined while walking down the stairs but as they were getting closer to their friends and team the two let their hands drop and Ban ran over to the group. Tetsu being the ever observant one noticed the new ring on Hoji’s finger and turned to look at Ban. Out of the corner of his eye Ban saw Tetsu looking at him and gave him a smile. Tetsu knew that Hoji said yes to marrying Ban, Tetsu hoped the two of them happiness when they were actually married.
