Nonsexual acts of intimacy - ◇ slow dancing
Sure thing, Anon! But there’s no pairing here… Not even telling me which fandom to choose! So I’ll choose my own. ^^ This was a very quickly and roughly written drabble, so bear with me.
Pairing: Sousuke/RinWords: 678
“Can you please go with me to this stupid gala?”
“Oh it’s ‘stupid’ now? Really selling it,Rin.” Sousuke raised a sarcastic eyebrow at his boyfriend before going back towatching the TV. “And no.”
“So you’d rather me goalone?! Makoto is going with Haru, you know,” the red-head complained, armscrossed as he stomped up to the couch to glare at the other man. “And if youdon’t go, I will be there dateless!”
“Why are you trying to guilt me? That’s dirtypool. Just ask your sister to go with you.”
“She’s eight months pregnant, asshole. Shebarely tolerates getting dressed in the morning anymore, let alone have to goto a white-tie gala that lasts all night.”
“Seems as if you’re out of luck then.”
“SOUSUKE!” Rin shouted in completeaggravation. “Fine then, let’s settle this with a showdown. And if youwin, I’ll never pressure you to go to another formal event.”
Rin’s sharp grin neverfaltered and Sousuke found himself sucked in, as he usually was. He figured heshould have learned a long time ago that what Rin wants, he gets. At leastwhenever it was in Sousuke’s power to give it to him.
And considering howSousuke failed triumphantly once again in their game of rock-paper-scissors (I’m really going to need to stop throwingrock, he thought to himself miserably), he realized that this was somethingelse he was going to do for his lover.
But it didn’t stop himfrom whining. “C’mon, Rin. I hate having to socialize with those people allnight and you know I can’t dance.”
“Oh save your belly-aching,you already lost. Besides, you know you like glaring at the men and women whohit on me at these things.” Rin wiggled his eyebrows at his protectiveboyfriend, grinning in victory as he blocked the view to the TV. “And I happento like looking at you in a tux anyway.”
Before Sousuke couldcontinue his complaining, he found himself hauled to his feet and pulled to thecenter of the room. “What are you doing?” he deadpanned.
“Since not being ableto dance is your only other complaint, we’re going to learn together.”
Sousuke blamed thebright, tender smile on Rin’s face for not immediately stomping away from sucha ridiculous offer. His lover’s sharp, challenging grin may have been sexy ashell, but those softer looks of affection and trust always melted him. And hewas determined to never reveal this weakness.
“You know there’s nomusic playing,” he offered as a weak objection.
“Don’t need it,” Rinanswered softly, placing the other man’s larger hands where they belonged onhis body, one around his waist and pressing against his back and the other heldup to hold Rin’s own. Finally placing his other hand on Sousuke’s shoulder, heslowly pulled on the larger body to move toward him in a waltz step.
They were slow andclumsy at first, barely saying two words to each other as they stared at theirfeet to count steps and avoid injuring the other person. But once they found aslow, steady rhythm even Sousuke had to admit that it was rather nice. Having Rinin his arms like this was more than pleasant and the thought that he’d be theonly person who Rin would ever let take the lead sent warmth through his chest.No matter who might ask Rin to dance that night, the man was his and his alone.
“Ok, so maybe this isn’tso bad.” Sousuke mumbled, acting as if it was difficult to admit. Hearing Rin’schuckle caused him to smile automatically in response. So he really couldn’thelp himself when he drew the shorter man in closer, their chests pressing gentlyagainst one another, and Sousuke lowered their joined hands to rest over hisheart.
“Not so bad at all,”Rin agreed quietly, planting a kiss on Sousuke’s chin without pausing at all intheir box step as they danced together in silence on their living room floor.
