Enjoy some Coleiji angst I wrote at 4am while sleep deprived and crying over them<3
~~~~~~~~
“Your hands are freezing.” Eiji says with a gentle smile, holding Cole’s hands in his own. It’s not a particularly cold evening but it can’t be classified as warm either.
“You know I get cold easily.” Cole jokingly pouts while interlocking fingers with his lover.
They are in their usual hangout spot in the forest clearing. This is Eiji and Cole’s happy place. Somewhere to be completely alone with one another without fear of interruption.
“You need to wear gloves then. I can't be your personal heater forever, Cole.” He leans his head over to rest it against the other's shoulder. “It makes me cold when you do that, then that does neither of us any good.”
Cole laughs softly, pressing a kiss to the top of Eiji’s head. “I know. I know. I’ll wear gloves next time.” He won’t. He likes the way Eiji’s warm hands feel on his cold ones.
“Mhm.. you better.” Eiji knows for a fact Cole isn’t going to but he can’t be bothered to push it.
The two fall into a comfortable silence. Both of their eyes trail up to the night sky, some stars are already beginning to brightly gleam. It feels as though for a moment, all problems slip away. It’s just the two of them there and now. Always and forever.
“.. always and forever,” Eiji mutters, staring at the photo in his camera while sitting in the corner of a decrepit old classroom. A tear drops to the screen, beading down and off the edge.
Always and forever.
