Kazumi couldn’t sleep again. It happened more often these days it seemed like.. He wasn’t sure why. Honestly he should be sleeping better if anything, but sometimes, he’d wake up in the middle of the night, and just couldn’t fall asleep again for a while.
Obi was actually asleep next to him, a short distance away, or at least it seemed that way, so he got up, being extra quiet, and wandered away from the camp, heading towards the little lake nearby. Maybe a cool bath would clear him of whatever was messing with him.
He stripped himself of most of his clothes, though not everything, since it was a lake and not an actual bath, and slipped into the water, the moonlight shining off his now wet skin. Kazumi closed his eyes, and gave a quiet hum of approval. The cold water really did feel nice, and he sort of just laid back, his head and back resting against a rock that was half submerged.
“I wanted, in a messy, maddening way, to go on forgetting myself and yet, to find myself too.”

“I love you, finally, with a calm, giving love and I love you, furthermore, present in the longing I love you, finally, with great freedom within eternity and every instant I love you like an animal, simply with a love without mystery and without virtue with a solid and permanent desire”

Vinícius de Moraes, Soneto do Amor Total
“Amo-te afim, de um calmo amor prestante E te amo além, presente na saudade Amo-te, enfim, com grande liberdade Dentro da eternidade e a cada instante
Amo-te como um bicho, simplesmente De um amor sem mistério e sem virtude Com um desejo maciço e permanente”

shadowofaprince:
“…” He was silent for a moment before tears welled up in his eyes. “…I…yes…yes…I’m scared, so scared, but yes…” He reached up and tried to wipe at his eyes, but the tears just kept falling.
“…Kazumi…Kazumi…I love you…”
Kazumi got up, and took Obi’s hand, slipping the ring onto his finger, and wrapped his arms around his now fiancé, pulling him close. “I love you too. And you just made me the happiest man in the world right now.”
He honestly couldn’t stop smiling, and outside of the windows, some of Kazumi’s staff who had been helping and watching just as anxiously for the answer, had started quietly clapping for them, making Kazumi blush. “Should we go home now, love? I got us some dessert to take home to celebrate, in case you did say yes.” And yes, it was chocolate.
shadowofaprince:
He turned to do so and stopped, eyes widening, blinking at the message staring at him from the window.
“Ka…zumi…?” His cheeks colored, heart pounding and he turned around again and found his boyfriend on one knee.
Oh lord.
“…You…really wanna marry me?” He asked in a small, hopeful voice.
The look on Kazumi’s face was one of calm certainty, at least amidst the nervousness. He really did want to marry him, and he put a lot of planning into this, clearly, and even spent time while he was away for the conferences shopping for the perfect ring.
“Yes, I really want to marry you.” A small chuckle, amused, but Obi could probably still hear the anxiousness in his voice. Obi still hadn’t given him an answer. “I’m sorry for making such a fuss, but you deserve to have a big deal made out of this event.. Whatever your answer ends up being.”
shadowofaprince:
“Yeah, lets go. And that’s fine, I have my work clothes on me, so it shouldn’t be a problem to go in tomorrow.”
If Kazumi had called him off, he obviously had no idea.
“You look nervous. Is everything okay?”
The drive to the hospital would be a fairly short one, so that was a plus. At Obi’s question though, Kazumi just beamed at him, giving an awkward bit of a laugh. “Yeah, I’m fine. Just a bit anxious myself I guess since I haven’t taken you out for a while and I know I already made you anxious. So I just want the rest of the night to go well.”
That wasn’t even a lie, though he was definitely focused on the road as they made the drive to the hospital. He got to use staff parking of course, and he’d let his staff know with a quick text that he and Obi were heading up. He slipped an arm around Obi’s waist as they headed up the elevator to the floor where his office was. The blinds were actually up on some of the windows to the hallway, which was semi unusual, but then it could have just been because Kazumi had been gone. The cleaning staff could have easily left them up. He tugged Obi over towards his desk, facing away from the windows, as he dug around in one of his drawers, pulling out a file and glancing over it, as well as a key he’d left on purpose.
He glanced up briefly, and saw that things were ready, and so casually, he made eye contact with one of the staff members outside the window. There were a few that had chosen to help him, and they were holding up signs pressed against the windows, which spelled out the words 'Marry me, Obi?’ across them in big, hand drawn words, his staff hiding behind the signs.
“Hey, babe, can you go close the blinds on the windows really quickly before we leave?” He was still seeming to be looking at the patient file he’d pulled out, and then moved to put it away, pulling a ring box out of his pocket once Obi turned away..
And then once Obi really had faced away from him, Kazumi bit his lip nervously, and he actually got down on one knee, with the ring in his hand, waiting for him to turn back around. Gods, he was so nervous, but he wanted this so much..
shadowofaprince:
“Good,” the wait for their food started and Obi seemed to calm down a little, ordering a refill for his drink and sipping at it with a happy, calm flush to his cheeks when the food arrived.
He managed to eat half of it before saying he wanted to bring the rest home.
He was glad that his lover seemed to have calmed some, and it didn’t take Kazumi long himself to finish his food. He’d ordered something a little lighter than usual because he too was anxious, but he had good reason to be.
“Are you ready to swing by the hospital? You should come in with me, since it might take me a minute.” They were going up to his office, and Obi had been there before, so it shouldn’t make him too nervous. He also ordered a dessert for later, since he planned to bring Obi back to his place after the hospital instead of Obi’s house. “We’re going to my loft after the hospital, so if you need to pick anything up from your house, we can.”
shadowofaprince:
“If you say so…” He wasn’t sure he trusted that, given his boyfriend’s track record, but well…there wasn’t much he could do about it was there?
“…Afterward, I wanna go home and snuggle though.”
Snuggling afterwards sounded like a very good idea, although he sort of had a feeling Obi would want to go home afterwards anyway, for a different reason. “Yeah, we can do that. I very much like the sound of that.”
Honestly, Kazumi felt bad for stressing him out, but he knew Obi would be very glad of all of this once he found out what was really going on. He was planning to text his staff at the hospital once they got there, because he’d included them in his planning.
shadowofaprince:
“…You know I don’t like surprises…it’s making me nervous, which is making me nauseous.” He didn’t want to seem like a buzzkill, but he couldn’t help his body’s reaction to things. “…So I…I’m sorry…I’m trying…you know I am…”
He felt bad, but…
Yes, he did know that, however this wasn’t really something he could avoid surprising him with. It sort of required being a surprise, so Obi would have to deal. “I know, love. But currently, this really is just a very nice date.” He reached across the table, to brush his fingers over his partner’s cheek.
“Although I promise I am not going to be surprising you with something else like a house or a car. I was gone for a while, and I wanted to do something nice for you, by taking you out for a really good dinner date, and spending time with you.” Hopefully that would help him relax, and throw off some suspicion that something was actually going on.
shadowofaprince:
“Sure. Did you forget something there?” He still didn’t understand what was happening and likely wouldn’t until it was shoved in his face. Their drinks arrived and Obi was quick to take a sip to calm his raging nerves.
“…” There was nothing cheap on the menu, so he decided on a steak dinner.
Ahh, yes, there was something he wanted to look at, but he’d intentionally left something in his office, for an excuse to have to go back. “Yes, there was something I forgot I needed that I left.”
As per usual, Obi really didn’t have to cheap out on food, he could order whatever he wanted, but honestly, Kazumi hadn’t expected any less. His lover had been pretty much traumatized and trained into not taking up space, when honestly that whole sort of thing was a load of bullshit. But it would take time to unlearn, and some habits never were broken. “This is a date you know. You can enjoy yourself, love. I want you to.”
shadowofaprince:
The problem about this whole thing was–Obi did not like surprises. He was very on edge, though he smiled lovingly back. “I missed you too…”
He didn’t have to drive obviously, so he didn’t hesitate to order some alcohol with his dinner, hoping it would take the edge off his nerves.
Well, in this case, he had a feeling Obi would like the surprise, but Kazumi was doing a great job at hiding what it was that he had planned. And he could tell his lover was anxious, so he didn’t say anything about the drink, it wasn’t like he wasn’t going to sip on some wine himself.
Luckily enough for Obi, dinner was meant to be fairly relaxed, it was just dinner at a nice place, since Kazumi could afford such things. He had other plans after this. “I’m glad. By the way, can we swing by the hospital on our way back from here? I wanted to grab something from my office.”
