Truth be told, I didn’t realize it was mofu’s birthday today until I saw user starrol’s birthday art post of her in a different platform. Shout out to user starrol fr could’ve never done this without her 😭🙏💕
Misaki snuggled closer to the older man, pressing his nose to Usagi's; the two were lying in bed the night before Misaki started his first day as Usagi’s assistant. He was hesitant, but he didn't want to let on how uneasy he felt. Misaki Grinned as he wrapped his arms around Usagi.
Usagi: Misaki what are you doing?
Misaki: Cuddling? Is that not okay?
Usagi: No; it's fine, but I thought you said you didn't want to do that tonight.
Misaki: I said no sex. I didn't say we couldn't cuddle.
Usagi: Alright, (Wraps arms around Misaki). Now, do you want to tell me what's bugging you?
Misaki: *Grins nervously* How did you know?
Usagi: Because *Kisses Misaki's head* I know you.
Misaki: I'm nervous about tomorrow? *Sighs* Maybe that's not the right word... I think I'm a little hesitant?
Usagi: *Sits up* Wait why? *grabs Misaki's hand* Do you not want to work with me?
Misaki: What? of course I want to work with you, it's just, I don't know Usagi. What if this doesn't work out, or leads to like us fighting a lot or something?
Usagi: If that's the reason you're hesitant about tomorrow, then you have nothing to worry about.
Misaki: What if people think I only got the job because of you? Or like, I'm basically being paid to hang out with you?
Usagi: The company is paying you, I'm not. You're not being paid to hang out with me, anyway. It's your job to help me with things I'm not great at.
Misaki: Usagi I'm sorry. I didn't want to make you worry.
Usagi: I always know when something is up with you.
Misaki: *Sits up, leans into Usagi's chest* Yeah, I know.
Usagi: *Runs fingers through Misakis hair* Hey, remember earlier today when you said you hated my ties?
Misaki: *Groans* I didn't say that! I said I thought you'd be more comfortable if you wore other things than ties all the time. Stop twisting my words. *Rolls eyes*
Usagi: *Laughs* You're too cute. *Kisses Misaki's Cheek*
Misaki: Stop! What's your point?
Usagi: My point is, *Wraps his arms around Misaki* Maybe we should dress each other tomorrow.
Misaki: What do you mean?
Usagi: Like pick out each other's outfits.
Misaki: What, why?
Usagi: Look, I'll see if you can pick out a more comfortable outfit than my ties.
Misaki: I promise you I can. I picked out all the ones after you were in the hospital.
Usagi: I know that; but I mean a work outfit.
Misaki: okay, and you think you can choose a great outfit for me?
Usagi: *Rolls eyes* Yeah, Of course. I mean, I picked out all your suits.
Misaki: Most of them, I never wear them. On that note, I will not wear a suit tomorrow.
Usagi: Fine, not suits for you, or ties. *Pauses* Then you can't pick out a sweater vest for me.
Misaki: You only own like two. You look good in them.
Usagi: I'm not wearing any.
Misaki: Fine, we have the terms down.
Usagi: *Laughs* It's not a contract.
Misaki: *Giggles* I know. *Looks at the clock on the bedside table. * It's getting late Usagi, we should get some sleep.
Usagi: It's only midnight.
Misaki: Yeah, I know. *Lays down, pulling covers to his chin* Goodnight, I love you.
Usagi: *Grins* I love you too. *Runs his fingers through Misaki's hair.
Misaki: *Looks up at him* Are you going to sleep?
Usagi: Soon.
Misaki: Are you okay?
Usagi: Yeah, I am. There's something I need to do before Eri comes in the morning. *Gets up, walking over to Misaki*
Misaki: Okay.
Usagi: *Kisses the younger boy on the head* Get some sleep, I'll be back soon.
Misaki: Okay.
Usagi: *Smiles softly at Misaki, then walks out of the room*
Usagi sits in his office putting finishing touches on his manuscript, then sends it off to Eri. It's one-thirty when he's finally done. The older man walks slowly into the bedroom, not wanting to wake his fiance, Usagi slowly crawls into bed, wrapping his arms around the younger boy taking in his scent. Misaki's breathing is soft, he's almost purring. The older man smiles, drifting off into a peaceful sleep.
Misaki sits up, his boyfriend grinning at him from the edge of the bed.
Misaki: What are you doing so early?
Usagi: It's only six-thirty.
Misaki: It is early, especially for you.
Usagi: *Grabs Misaki's hand* Can't just be here with my boyfriend early in the morning, before his first day of work?
Misaki: Not unless you have an ulterior motive.
Usagi: What? No *Sighs* Misaki, I just love you, that's all.
Misaki: *Laughs* I love you too, so do you want to tell me what you're actually up to?
Usagi: Fine, I made you breakfast.
Misaki: *Gently beams, squeezing Usagi's hand* Usagi, you didn't have to do that.
Usagi: Of course I do, Misaki. You do so much for me; I mean, the least I could do is cook for you every once in a while.
Misaki: *Chuckles genty, looking deep into the older man's eyes* Okay, well we should go eat then.
Usagi: No, I'm bringing it to you.
Misaki: *Breathes out softly* Usagi. you don't have to do that. We can eat together at the table.
Usagi: No treating you to breakfast in bed. *Stands, letting go of Misaki's hand* I'll be back.
Misaki: Wait.
Usagi: What's wrong?
Misaki: Do you need any help?
Usagi: What I need you to do is to relax. *Leans down, kissing Misaki* Don't move* I'll be right back.
Misaki: But-
Usagi: I can't hear you, I'm going.
Misaki: *Slumps in bed*
Usagi: *Grins, Kissing Misaki*. His lips were sweet from the pancakes.
Misaki: Thank you Usagi, the coconut pancakes were amazing. I loved the Spicy bacon as well. *his eyes light up* everything was perfect.
Usagi: Thank you, I was hoping you would like it.
Misaki: *Leans in, giving Usagi a kiss* Um, *Clears throat*, It's getting -
Usagi: Late?
Misaki: Heh, I was going to say close to the time where we should get ready?
Usagi: Want to take a shower together?
Misaki: Heh, Um. Sure Usagi. But no funny business.
Usagi: So just like washing your hair, and body then?
Misaki: Fine.
Usagi: I'll take the dishes downstairs, then come back up here to the bathroom.
Misaki: Okay. *Stacks dishes, handing them to Usagi* I'm going to pick out your outfit.
Usagi: How long have you had it planned?
Misaki: *Laughs* Not long. *Kisses, the older man on his cheek* I'll see you in a minute.
Usagi: Okay.
Misaki giggles as the older man presses his lips to the nape of his neck, his hands exploring his body.
Misaki: Stop it Usagi, *Turns to face the man* I said no funny business.
Usagi: This is me washing your body with my hands.
Misaki: *Cupping the older man's face* I know, but the funny thing is... I didn't do this when I was washing you.
Usagi: You could've, no one stopped you.
Misaki: *Sighs* I know you want to have sex, and I promise we will, but after today. *Turns off the shower, reaches for a towel*
Usagi: I know, I'm just trying to help you relax.
Misaki: You have helped, breakfast help. *Dries his hair, tossing the towel on the floor* Now, we need to get dressed, because Eri gets here in an hour.
Usagi: Okay.
Misaki: Your outfit is on the bed.
Usagi: *Grins* Yours is hanging in the closet.
Misaki: If it-
Usagi: No suits, no ties. Promise. *Wraps arms around Misaki* You're going to look adorable though. *Kisses Misakis head* I love you.
Misaki: Oh no. *Looks at Usagi out of the side of his eye* If I look adorable, that means you have something picked out that's interesting.
Usagi: NOT TRUE. You're always adorable.
Misaki: I'm not wearing this!
The older boy stood in the closet, his arms folded; in front of him hung a sailor suit, something that looked like Suzuki-san once wore. Usagi smirked at him, tying a red tie onto the blue flannel that Misaki picked out. The younger boy paired the flannel with black jeans and black boots; Usagi loved the outfit. His Fiance really knew what he was doing with stuff like this.
Usagi: I knew that. *Laughs* I just wanted to see your reaction.
Misaki: *Pushes the older man* You suck.
Usagi: *Raises an eyebrow* Of course I do. Hands Misaki his outfit, blue slacks, a grey polo shirt, and white sneakers. *wraps arms around Misaki, whispering in his ear softly* You know, you should really get dressed. Eri will be here in about twenty minutes.
Misaki: Shut up. Go downstairs! I'll see you in ten.
Usagi: It's going to take you ten minutes?
Misaki: GO! *Pushes Usagi off of him*
Usagi: What?
Misaki: Your little joke is distracting me! Go away.
Usagi: I'm going. *Heads for the door*
Misaki: Hey, you look really nice.
Usagi: *Blushes* Thanks*.
Misaki smiled to himself, getting dressed. As nervous as he was for his first day being the great Akihiko Usami's assistant, he was just as happy that he was getting to be by his lover's side.
Misaki walks the streets of downtown Tokyo for about an hour until he comes across a shop that has the perfect gift for their anniversary. He grins, rushing into the shop to pick out the gift; as he exits, his phone rings, it's Usagi.
Usagi: Hey Hon, where are you?
Misaki: I'm on my way home, heading to the train station. Should be there in about fifteen minutes.
Usagi: Okay, well hurry, our reservations are in an hour.
Misaki: An hour?!
Usagi: I'm sorry! That's the best I could do.
Misaki: *checks watch* I'll be there as soon as I can.
Usagi: Okay, I'll see you soon.
Misaki: Okay. I love you.
Usagi: I love you too, baby.
Usagi hangs up, straightening his tie, grinning once satisfied. He wore a black suit and a blue tie. He thought he looked perfect but was always nervous going on dates with Misaki. This one was different, though. This was their fifth anniversary, and he felt like he was going to puke. Misaki walks in the door grinning, placing his bag on the couch.
Misaki: *Calling out* Hey Usagi! You upstairs?
Usagi: *Walking down the stairs with a grin* Hey!
Misaki: *Smirks, meeting Usagi at the bottom of the steps* Hey.
*Misaki quickly kisses the older man, taking him in. He grins, wrapping his arms around him. Misaki hugs him tighter, taking in the older man's scent. He loved him so much.*
Usagi: *Chuckles* Hi Baby, you okay?
Misaki: *Nodding against Usagi*, Yeah, you smell good.
Usagi: I showered, might be why.
Misaki: Heh. *Pulls away*, Alright, we'll I need to shower then, I won't be that long.
Usagi: *Places hand on Misaki's face, softy rubbing his cheek with his thumb* Okay. *Stares intensely at the younger man*
Misaki: *Blushing* W-what, what is it?
Usagi: Nothing, it's just, I love you.
Misaki: *Looks down* I love you too. I- um, I'm going to go shower. *Brushes past Usagi, heading up the stairs*
Usagi: Hey, M-Misaki?
Misaki: *Stops, turns to face Usagi* Yeah?
Usagi: I wasn't sure what suit you wanted to wear, so I laid out the one from your graduation, and that grey one you wore to the wedding we went to a few months ago.
Misaki: *Grins* Thank you, but I have a novel idea in mind.
Usagi: *smirks* Novel?
Misaki: *Shut up* I'm going to shower. I'll be back in twenty minutes.
*Misaki paused, rummaging through the closet he now shared with Usagi. Where was that suit? It's been so many years since he wore it, but he knew he brought it in here at one point. Nothing was in his old room now except his bed and a computer that he used sometimes; it mostly served as a guest room now. Misaki walked to the closet, searching through all the suits that were hanging. He grinned, shaking his head; they had way too many. The young man smiled when he found the Grey suit with the pink collared shirt. Finally, he found it; now only if he could find the purple tie.*
*Usagi sat on the couch, nervously flipping through channels. He didn't want to be late, but more than that, he wanted to enjoy a nice proper dinner for their fifth anniversary. They enjoyed their trip, but since it rained so much, the two of them felt like they needed a proper date to celebrate*
Misaki: Usagi?
*The younger man strolled down the stairs, walking over to Usagi. Standing, he grinned at Misaki, looking at him, gasping.*
Usagi: Wait, Misaki, this is the suit I bought you when we had our first date.
Misaki: Um, *rubs neck* Yeah, you know, I just thought it would be perfect. I think we should go, though. I don't want to be late.
Usagi: Yeah, you ready?
Misaki: I am. I just need to grab something from my bag.
Usagi: Okay.
*Usagi Smiled staring at the menu, the two made it just in time, their table overlooked the lights of the city it was pure beauty. Misaki Grinned grabbing Usagi's hand causing him to blush slightly*
Usagi: Misaki, You're cute.
Misaki: *Chuckles* Thanks, babe. Is there anything sticking out to you?
Usagi: I was thinking we could share the roasted duck unless you want something else?
Misaki: I was thinking the duck too, the manganji hotpepper sounds amazing.
Usagi: Okay, do you want white or red wine?
Misaki: You pick, you know what's the best.
Usagi: Okay, well the 2018 Alsimy Sauvignon Blanc is fantastic, we can get that.
Misaki: Perfect.
*The two order Enjoying an amazing meal, under the ambiance of the lights, the food, and each other's company. Misaki Smirks Wiping sauce off Usagi's face, then licking it from his thumb*
Usagi: *Chuckles* That brings back memories.
Misaki: I can't believe that was five years ago.
Usagi: Still as cute as ever.
Misaki: *blushes* Stop it. Oh, before I forget. *Pulls Box out of Jacket pocket* I got you something, Happy Anniversary Usagi.
*Misaki sets the box on the table Usagi grins, wiping his face off. He runs his hand over the box, grinning at Misaki. He opens the box, inside sit two dragon claw marble necklaces. One has a green marble, the other is purple. Usagi gives Misaki a look of confusion*
Usagi: I don't get it.
Misaki: Ah, well we, when we went on my birthday trip I got the jar of marbles, and we both made three wishes. I always thought the last one was most important.
Usagi: Yeah, Mine was "I hope I can be with Misaki Forever"
Misaki: Yeah, I remember. I never told you what mine was, but it was the same as yours " I hope I can be with Usagi-san forever"
Usagi: *Blushes* Really?
Misaki: Yeah, it always embarrassed me to tell you. Uh, anyway, a little while ago, after we told Nii-chan about us, I found them again. I made the wish to be with you forever and ever, with all my heart. So when I was trying to find the best gift, I thought of Marbles, or rather, these necklaces, so we can hold on to the wishes we made. *Shakes head* I know it's dumb.
Usagi: *Grabs Misaki's hand* Misaki, I love it. *Picks hand up, kisses knuckles* It's perfect.
Misaki: Oh, um, the greens yours, it matches my eyes, and the purples mine.
Usagi: I figured.
Misaki: I uh, know we rarely wear jewelry except for our engagement rings, but-
Usagi: Misaki, stop. I love it.
Misaki: Okay. Um, can I put yours on?
Usagi: Yeah. *grins*
*Misaki stands, walks around to Usagi, he gently takes out the necklace, then places it on Usagi's neck. Misaki grins, he softy kisses Usagi's neck then touches the marble, it shines in the light*
Misaki: It's perfect.
Usagi: I need to put on yours.
Misaki: Of course.
*Misaki leans against the table as Usagi places the necklace on his neck, Usagi leans forward softly kissing his lips, the taste spicy from the duck sauce, but sweet from the wine*
Usagi: let's get out of here. *He smiles, rubbing Misaki's legs*
Misaki: We need to pay.
Usagi: You know what I mean.
Misaki: *Rolls eyes* Where are we staying tonight?
Usagi: The prince park, I choose a room with the view of the tower, access to the bar, a nice tub, HUGE bed an-
Misaki: You spent a lot of money on the room deduct?
Usagi: Not a lot of money...
Misaki: You're crazy.
Usagi: *taps Misakis nose* You love me.
Misaki: I need you to save money. What are we going to do for our wedding? And then when we start the process for surrogacy? That's not cheap.
Usagi: It'll be okay, I have savings for that stuff. Misaki, I- I have an extra account for this stuff, the fun stuff. Our house expenses, the house we're building, the wedding, the future... all of that, I have another account for that. I promise you don't need to worry.
Misaki: Really?
Usagi: Really. *Kisses Misaki's cheek* Do you want anything else before we leave?
Misaki: No.
Usagi: Alright, let's see about getting out of here.
Misaki: *Smiles* Alright
*Misaki walked into the room, stunned. It was beautiful; the tower looked amazing at night. They had such a close view of it; the bathroom was enormous, so was the bed. The room had a small minibar and a small lounge area. There was a tv perfectly placed so they could watch tv in the lounge area or relaxing in bed. Misaki walked to the window taking in the view, Usagi smiled walking up behind him wrapping his arms around the smaller man's waist; he gently kissed his neck, resting his chin on his shoulder. Miksik smiled at him through the window, placing his arms on the older man, their rings, and necklaces reflecting off the city lights*
Usagi: Do you want to go to the Executive lounge for a drink*?
Misaki: *Grins* Executive lounge? sounds fancy.
Usagi: Oh, it is. *Raises an eyebrow*
Misaki: *Turns to look at Usagi, grins at him, wrapping his arms around his neck* Why is it so fancy? Wait, let me guess because only people who have these rooms have access to it?
Usagi: Yeah, wanna go?
Misaki: Yes, but only for one drink. *Smirks* I want to enjoy this room while we have it.
Usagi: Well, I can book an extra night.
Misaki: NO! that's not at all what I meant.
Usagi: I-
Misaki: Let's go.
*Misaki grabs Usagi's hand, they head down to the bar where Misaki orders a Saketini and Usagi orders a whiskey sour; he insists they get cocktails*
Misaki: Um, Usagi? *He sits across from the older man, sipping on his cocktail, he's nervous, but Usagi can't read him this time*
Usagi: What's wrong? *He places his drink on the table, giving Misaki a loving look*
Misaki: Um, when we first met, do you remember how we like hated each other?
Usagi: *nods sadly* Yeah, I do.
Misaki: Well, a few months into that, the more we started to, uh, hang out and spend time with each other, the more I started to kinda have feelings for you.
Usagi: *Smirks* Really? Why didn't you tell me?
Misaki: Well, first, you were in love with my brother? But more than that, I-I didn't think it was okay for me to be in love with you or have feelings for any man. I mean, when we first starting dating and having sex; I was kinda, how do I say it? Not opposed, obviously, but I didn't know how to react or deal with all the feelings I had for you. I called you a lot of mean, rude names that I didn't mean; I'm sorry Usagi. Also, you need to know how much I've always loved you, even if I could never express it clearly. It was hard for me sometimes, but I've always felt a great deal of love for you, even more now, I just wanted you to know.
*Usagi is smiling. He's clearly holding back tears. Picking up his drink, he stands, walks, and sits beside Misaki, takes his hand, strokes the back with his thumb. The older man smiles, kissing the younger man gently on his cheek.*
Usagi: Misaki, I um, I knew how much you loved me, I've always known. *Clears throat* As for names that you called me? That's in the past, and I understand why. I know that it's hard to come to terms with who you are. I also need you to know, that night when you cried for me, I fell in love with you, but not just because I allowed myself to be vulnerable, but because you somehow understood? But I guess it's because you had those feelings for me?
Misaki: *Wipes tears* Um, yeah I guess, when we first were dating, I was upset because I didn't understand how you could fall for me so fast?
Usagi: I knew that at some point, I had to let go of the feelings I had for Takahiro, so when I realized I could show verbality in front of you, something I've never done in my life, I knew I found what being in love meant, you've shown me that night that I could be open and honest with my emotions. *Smiles* I couldn't do that with anyone but you, so thank you for showing me what true love is.
Misaki: I, you've shown me what true love is. Usagi, you're my first love, you know? I don't think I've ever felt for anyone; I haven't had like crushes. I know you get jealous sometimes, but thank you for always being so protective of me, even if I complain, I appreciate it.
Usagi: I know that.
*Usagi picks up Misaki's hands, locking their fingers together. He smiles at the younger man. The two finish their drink, then head back to the room. They decide to a bath in the hot tub. Misaki wants to wash Usagi for a change since he doesn't get too often*
Misaki: Stay still, let me wash your hair.
Usagi: *Grinning, trying to snuggle against Misaki* I want to do this.
Misaki: You have suds in your hair. Can I finish? *Misaki places Usagi's head under the water, rinsing his hair off, he lifts Usagi's head inspecting to make sure all the suds are gone, smiles; then wraps his arms around Usagi.* Now I'm done. Are you happy?
Usagi: What about you?
Misaki: I showed before we went to eat.
*Usagi turns to bring Misaki into him. The older man rubs his thumb over Misaki's lips, then brings his chin up to his lips, softly kissing him. He pulls back, smiling at the younger man, who gives him a loving but seductive look.*
Usagi: What?
Misaki: Nothing, it's just, Happy anniversary.
Usagi: You know, it's not technically our anniversary anymore?
Misaki: *Shoves Usagi* Shut up, way to ruin a moment. *Gets out of the tub*
Usagi: Hey, come on, where are you going?
Misaki: To bed.
Usagi: Fun bed or?
Misaki: *Rolls eyes*
*Misaki lies on Usagi's chest, the two are in bed talking about moments they've shared in the past five years; Usagi is caressing Misakis' hair; the city lights are shining in the bedroom, giving off a warm glow.*
Misaki: I think when I went to visit my brother in Osaka was when I was felt nervous about our relationship; leaving that week hurt.
Usagi: I know, I felt the same. I couldn't think of anything but you.
Misaki: When you came to get me, I was happy but embarrassed. *Grins* You came three hours for me, and we spent the night in the sleeping car. I loved it.
Usagi: *Chuckles* Your first birthday we spent together.
Misaki: It was also your first real trip.
Usagi: *Smiles, squeezes Misaki* it thrilled me to be with you.
Misaki: I was happy too. I still have all the pictures saved on my laptop. You held my hand in public for the first time. I remember how it felt when I tried to tell you I loved you, I couldn't say it, and then when I could, I was so happy when I could tell you. I know there have been and will be people who like me or you but, the difference is, you're the love of my life Usagi, and you always will be.
Usagi: You're the love of my life Misaki, I love you so much.
*Misaki Grins; slowly traces kisses down Usagi's chest, causing the older man to moan slightly. He glances up at Usagi, then makes his way back up to his neck, placing gentle kisses on his collarbone. Misaki Smiles Climbing on Usagi, wrapping his legs around his hips, the younger man grins at the older man below him. He pushes Usagi's soft hair back, the smell of shampoo filling the air.*
Usagi: I love you so much, baby.
Misaki: I love you too.
*Usagi grins, taking Misaki's head, pulling it towards him. Softly he bites Misakis's lip, using his tongue to find a way in. The kisses are sweet from the cocktails they had earlier, their tongues softly dancing with each other. The two pull away, searching for air. Usagi smiles at the younger man, rubbing his back, gently kissing his nipples.*
Misaki: Usa- Usagi?
Usagi: *Pulls away from Misaki's hard nipples, smiling gently at the young man* What's wrong? Are you okay?
Misaki: *Nods* I want to be in you.
Usagi: Okay.
*Misaki sat up while Usagi turned. He still got nervous when entering Usagi. The younger man gently kissed Usagi's lower back, then slowly made his way inside. He heard Usagi gasped as Misaki thrust himself inside the older man, until they both came together, clasping on the bed out of breath. Usagi took Misaki, wrapping himself around the smaller man. Misaki smiled, as Usagi's scent wrapped around them like a warm blanket.*
Usagi: *Running his fingers through Misaki's hair* Misaki?
Misaki: Yeah.
Usagi: Are you okay?
Misaki: Perfect, are you okay?
Usagi: I am. I can't believe we've been together for five years.
Misaki: We've been through a lot, huh?
Usagi: We have.
Misaki: I remember when I didn't read any of your books.
Usagi: *Laughs* Where did that come from?
Misaki: *Looks up at Usagi* It's just now I've read all of them, and I'm going to be your assistant starting next week.
Usagi: Ugh, is next week already the begging of May?
Misaki: Well, we went on a trip for like three weeks. We left on the day of my graduation.
Usagi: We came home early though.
Misaki: It's the twenty-fourth of April. May is next Sunday.
Usagi: So we still have a few days to do this?
Misaki: *Reaches up, gently rubs Usagi's Chin* We have the rest of our lives to do this.
