@skxteboarder
They were sitting together on Reki’s bed hunched over his phone watching skateboard videos on youtube. It was about 11 o’clock, meaning they’d leave for S in about half an hour but... Langa yawned, head falling to rest on Reki’s shoulder.
“Tired...”
( @skxteboarder ; Reki ) “Cherry!” The pink-haired skater was in the second place he checked; Joe’s restaurant. Reki let himself inside, comfortable enough here to use his outdoor voice when he shouldn’t. “What happened? Are you okay? Langa asked me to check on you.” Confusion tugged at his brow. “Huh? You seem okay though….” This wasn’t a ‘I’ve fallen and I can’t get up’ situation, so what was wrong?
“It’s Kaoru when we’re not at S and keep your voice down. There are paying customers trying to eat.” He scolded, gesturing for the redhead to take a seat at the counter next to him.
“He probably asked because he felt bad. We had a slight disagreement earlier before he ran off.”
( @skxteboarder ; Reki ) “What’re you planning? Are you trying to take Cherry to a love hotel too?!” Yeah, he’s onto you! Hitting someone with your car (and trying to avoid being sued) and giving someone coffee are in the same realm, obviously. “I won’t allow it!” This is for Joe!!
“...” He stares, deadpan, down at the redhead, because what. “Is that why you’ve been giving me the evil eye? Because I brought my friend some coffee?”
Squints.
“...You’re starting to get near Adam’s level of dramatics. Be careful. Or soon you’ll be donning a cape and calling Snow your Eve.”
( @skxteboarder ; Reki ) “Langa.” Reki sounds serious. More serious than he ever has in his whole life.
“Do you… like twinks more than muscular guys?”
|| @skxteboarder (((I’m sorry)))
Reki called his name, and Langa was instantly concerned about his friend’s tone. It sounded like something serious... He looked over at Reki, putting down his pencil and mentally shoving aside the studying that they had been doing. Math final? Not today.
Was Reki alright? Did he need help? Was it something important? Did he-
Huh? Twinks or... muscular guys...
Well FUCK that was important!
Langa paused to think, leaning back in his chair in thought as he crossed his arms, scowling down at his desk as he contemplated this extremely important question.
On one hand: twinks.
Cute. Normally a little more feminine. Fun sized. Nice for carrying bridal style. Generally they had a good sense of humor and a friendly smile. He’d known a few twinks in his time....
On the other hand: muscular guys.
Strong. Dependable. Could kick your ass if you asked them too and you were into it, of course. Abs for days, calves for weeks, and biceps for months.... Yep, Langa had also known a few beefy dudes in his time...
But still... Reki’s question was on his preference, not his thoughts on them individually. So, if he had to pick between the two, what would he pick?
Langa leaned forwards, placing his elbows on the desk as his head fell into his hands so he could concentrate more.
Maybe he was coming at this from the wrong angle, maybe he needed to assess what he generally liked in a guy first and work backwards from there.
Alright, alright, good plan. Yeah yeah yeah.
Langa leaned back in his chair again, letting his head fall back so he could stare up at the ceiling, face tight in concentration.
What Langa liked... well... he liked dependability - someone he could trust to have his best interest in mind when he was and wasn’t there. A sense of humor was a plus. Someone who inspired him, brought new things into his life, filled every moment with excitement. A good listener, both to verbal and visual cues. The type of person that lit up a room when they entered and made Langa’s chest tight and his toes squirm. Someone like... like... like...
Langa’s head slowly fell to the side and his gaze landed on Reki.
Blue collided with amber as Langa’s world froze. There was Reki... funny.. dependable.. inspirational.. exciting.. patient.. illuminating... just--
He took a steady inhale, held it, and slowly let the breath out. A light pink blush rose to Langa’s cheeks.
--breath taking.
Langa’s mouth was probably hanging open an little and he had definitely been staring for an uncomfortably long time. Embarrassed, and turning more pink, he quickly sat back up and picked up his pencil, hovering over his previously forgotten studying.
“Um... both are-- alright.” To Langa, twinks or baras were two irrelevant answers in a test he wasn’t planning on taking.
He swallowed the lump in his throat and circled the answer to the question he had been working on.
c. none of the above
The clock struck midnight and LANGA WAS FREE! He had been keeping so many thoughts to himself while he was trapped in his mun’s mind box and it was time to share them!!!
First @partum-memoriae -
“Kairi, I don’t know what your dad was saying to my mom but FIRSTLY they are not allowed to date and SECONDLY whatever they’re planning is sketchy I don’t like it meet me tonight at 11:30 before ‘S’ so we can try to figure out what’s going on. I’ll pick you up on my bike don’t let your dad see.”
@petalsbloomed -
“Reki, if you bring up any of those baby pictures you aren’t my best friend anymore and Joe is taking your place.”
@chatmiya -
“Everything she said was a lie I’ve never wet myself once not even that time that she scared me super badly when I was coming out of my room last year don’t believe it!”
@multixmused
“Kaoru.” Pause. “Actually I have nothing bad to say here, thank you for treating her nicely.” Seeing his two moms be friends was very refreshing and it added 3 years to his lifespan.
@skxteboarder
“Don’t--- sh-she... um-” Reki didn’t know who she was just yet, but it was only a matter of time, and when he did: “S-She doesn’t know what she’s talking about.” Yes, Langa is blushing.
@matador-of-love
“Just--- I-” Pulls out the spray bottle. “Stay away.” Spray, spray.
//*slowly drops this and walks away*
@tinys-muses’s Reki:
never dated anyone
has had many big crushes
wears his heart on his sleeve
my Langa:
dated several people
has never had romantic feelings or crushes on anyone until Reki came along
hides his feelings because he doesn’t understand them
( @skxteboarder ; Reki ) 5'9"!
Height Comparison || Accepting
@skxteboarder
“Hey, you might still get a growth spurt, you never know!”
@skxteboarder ( @skxteboarder ; Reki ) Reki can’t be outdone by Tadashi. He offers Kaoru an energy drink and a thumbs up. He’s got you, mom.
“Thank-you Reki, this will come in handy.” He hadn’t been this reckless with the amount of caffeine he was drinking since he was Reki’s age.
Is he picking up a bit of animosity between the redhead and the assistant? Color him curious.
