Double Life

This was starting to become an issue. The tutoring sessions were fine at first with Mikaela and Yuuichirou just minding their own business. The two would spend the entire time in Yuuichirou’s room, doing their own thing and occasionally leaving to get some food. Mikaela was honestly surprised that Yuuichirou lived in mansion like house. The nerd’s room was enormous that it shouldn’t be called a bedroom. Nonetheless, it was actually fun, but after some time, it just became boring.

Mikaela was walking around the room, blue eyes gazing at the same wall, at the same posters, for the past damned hour. He groaned in annoyance, glancing over at Yuuichirou who was studying, green eyes having not blinked once. There were bags under the young teen’s eyes, Yuuichirou could barely keep his eyes open and still he decided to study. He was just a very dedicated nerd that always found ways to raise his GPA.

The bad boy rolled his eyes, “You gun’ die without sleep”

“Correction… you’re going to… not you gun’…” Yuuichirou corrected, a small yawn following soon after. The yawn sounded more like a whimper, but the nerd wouldn’t know, only Mikaela thought it sounded like that.

“Does it seriously look like I give a damn?” Mikaela grumbled, stuffing his hands inside the pockets of his black sweater.

Yuuichirou merely shrugged, “I don’t know, I’m not looking at you,” he whispered just loud enough for Mikaela to hear. The tall teen made his way towards the nerd, yanking his chair back, earning a yelp of surprise from the action. Yuuichirou glared at Mikaela, growling at him, fist clenching in case the bad boy was asking for some fight. “Go do whatever the fuck you want! Play video games! Sext some bitch, but just leave me the fuck alone to study!”

Mikaela placed a hand underneath Yuuichirou’s chin, tilting his head up, their faces inches apart, causing the nerd to blush. “Remember our little deal… If I’m bored, we do whatever I want,” he whispered huskily, worsening the hue on the young teen’s cheeks.

“What do you mean by that…?” Yuuichirou said right after he cleared his throat, attempting to be calm and collected, but that obviously failed.

Without a word said, Mikaela lifted Yuuichirou off the chair, hoisting the short boy into his arms. The nerd immediately began to struggle, not liking where this situation was going already. He wasn’t going to give himself up to a bad boy. He wouldn’t stoop that low. Mikaela walked over to the king sized bed and dropped Yuuichirou down onto the mattress, quickly crawling on top of him with a smirk on his face. Yuuichirou scowled, trying to push the other off his bed, punching the bad boy in the chest only once before Mikaela took a hold of his wrist, pinning them down.

“You’re so feisty, I’m surprised you aren’t screaming for help” Mikaela chuckled, his blue eyes lighting up in pure amusement.

“Oh, that’s because I’m thinking of a way to murder you if you dare do anything disgusting!” He snarled, glaring as best as he could, but he was both physically and mentally tired. Even if he threatened to murder this bad boy, he knew he’d fail, his body was currently weak and all he wanted to do was sleep.

Mikaela hummed happily, shifting into a better position. He loosened his grip on the young teen’s wrist and rested his head against the other’s chest, closing his eyes in tiredness. “Did you seriously think I’d fuck with someone like you?” he chuckled, hearing the fast beating of Yuuichirou’s heart, “This was to get your stubborn ass to bed, you’re welcome. Now go to sleep shrimp”

Yuuichirou groaned in annoyance, “This is fucking weird, get off me before my parents think I’m dating you behind their back”

“Not gun’ happen, I’m too comfortable in this position, so deal with it~”

“Mikaela” Yuuichirou called out in a warning tone, his eyes narrowing on the bad boy. Freeing his wrists, Yuuichirou placed his hands on the older boy’s shoulder, attempting to push him off, but Mikaela was quick. The bad boy wrapped his arms around Yuuichirou’s small waist, holding him tightly as he moved his head away from his chest. “Get your filthy arms off me!”

Mikaela shook his head, pressing their bodies closer as he buried his face in the mess of black hair. Yuuichirou was about to scream in frustration, but the position was actually comforting, it was relaxing. The young teen stopped putting up a fight, his energy depleting by the seconds, eyes slowly closing. Yuuichirou removed his glasses, setting them at a safe distance from them before finally letting his eyes fall shut, his body feeling at peace.

The older male silently watched, his blue eyes on Yuuichirou, not getting the chance to see his beautiful green eyes without their light shielded from the glasses. He smiled faintly as Yuuichirou snuggled up closer to him, submitting to sleep and throwing his pride entirely away. It took a couple of minutes, but soon enough Mikaela finally knew Yuuichirou was finally resting well in a deep slumber when a soft snore like purr escaped his lips.

“…Why are you so stubborn,” Mikaela mumbled, gently rubbing the boy’s back for a couple of seconds before reaching over to grab his cellphone from his pocket. He had lowered the brightness and muted his phone in order for him not to disturb the sleeping nerd, afraid to face a shorty’s wrath.

He began to go through his Facebook newsfeed, his eyes scanning every post, every picture, every link, and every video he could. His regular routine on Facebook was just to scroll down, like, react, share, or reply to something he was tagged in. The bad boy’s notifications were blowing up with constant tags of him in pictures of the girls he had added as friends, he didn’t know them, but they tagged him in everything, begging for more likes to satisfy their narcissistic souls.

Mikaela let out sigh, about ready to just close the application, that was until he saw a picture that grasped his full on attention, a post that was telling people to follow this person. The blonde teen clicked the picture, his eyes staring at what seemed to be a screenshot of an Instagram post. The post was a photo of none other than Yuu, posing with a peace sign, a smile wide from ear to ear, his green eyes that held the world, were bright under the rays of the sun. He was simply breathtaking…

‘So you have an Instagram, Yuu-chan…’Mikaela grinned like the idiot he could be, remembering the short teen’s account username right before opening up the application, quickly searching up for him, finding it in a less than a minute. Luckily, the account was not private as everything was open for all to see. Everyone was welcomed.

Yuu had over two thousand followers on his account and most likely, they were obsessed fan girls. Scrolling down, Mikaela felt his heart race at the sight of each picture, unable to handle the mesmeric photogenic Yuu. The teen looked like a model and he was a model in the eyes of his followers.

He soon logged off his account and turned off his phone, setting it back inside the pocket of his pants. Mikaela took a deep breath, his hands rubbing the nerd’s back. The bad boy snuggled closer, closing his eyes, feeling himself drifting to sleep. He didn’t care if he was in a way cuddling with this nerd, this nerd he really wasn’t fond of, but then again he was always contradicting himself…

The two started up a new routine for the past month, a routine that always ended in them falling asleep one way or another. They didn’t stay up close for the most part, they usually kept a distance, but somehow, subconsciously, they’d end up together. Yuuichirou saw this as a strange behavior and it worried him that at one point he’d wake up with a mess of black hair, with his bright green eyes open for Mikaela to figure out that he was Yuu. Snuggling together was soothing, it was comfortable and they would never mention it once.

“Mikaela, Yuuichirou, do you guys want dinner!” Shinya shouted from downstairs.

Mikaela let out a groan, sitting carefully up as he rubbed his eyes tiredly. He looked down over his shoulder to see Yuuichirou curled up closely beside him, his hair still surprisingly neat. The bad boy let out a sigh and began to stretch out his arms, “Sure we would!” the teen responded loudly before he yawned. The older teen shook Yuuichirou’s shoulder lightly, hoping it would wake him up, but it did not.  Yuuichirou was out cold. “Oi short stack, wake up. Your mom made dinner”

“…five more hours…”

“...Seriously shorty wake up, or else I will throw you off this bed!”

At that moment, Yuuichirou forced himself up quickly, his head throbbing from the fast motion, the whole room spinning around him. The short teen did not open his eyes, knowing Mikaela would see the resemblance between him and Yuu. “Mornin’ already…” Yuuichirou mumbled sleepily as he rubbed his eyes.

“Sorry to burst your bubble shrimp, but it’s still almost five in the afternoon”

“Then go home big foot”

“I would but my sister ain’t here, so I’m stuck with your short ass”

“Great…” Yuuichirou reached over the nightstand and took a hold of his glasses, putting them on. He stood up, hunched over as he dragged his feet across the floor, his body rebelling against him, wanting more time to sleep.

Mikaela sighed, “You should take a week off from studying. It’ll be the death of you if you don’t”

“…’m good…”

Out of nowhere, Mikaela swiftly scooped Yuuichirou up off the ground. The young male did not complain, his legs were about to give up on him anyways. Mikaela set the boy back down on the bed, and patted his hair, “I’ll be nice and bring your food for you, so get a bit more rest”

Yuuichirou blushed, “…Uh… thanks…”

“Anything for senpai, I want Yuuichirou-senpai to notice me you know!” Mikaela spoke in a girlish tone, even adding a giggle to the end of his sentence. Yuuichirou stifled his laughter, “Kya! I made Yuuichirou-senpai laugh~!”

“Stop” Yuuichirou snorted.

Mikaela laughed, putting his hands up, “Alright, I’ll be back”

“Don’t come back”

“I’m obviously going to do the opposite of what you said”

“Uh…come back?”

“Haha too late!”

“You little shit!” Yuuichirou grabbed one of the pillows and he saw the smirk on Mikaela’s face.

“You’re the little one here, senpai”

The young teen screamed in frustration as he threw the pillow at the tall teen, but Mikaela quickly left the room, slamming the door shut with a laugh. Yuuichirou let out a sigh, reaching to grab his cellphone from the pocket of his pants. He unlocked the device and checked the messages he received from Shinoa. They were random texts that just had Yuuichirou rolling his eyes.

Shinoa Babe

4:29 p.m.//

Yuuichirou chuckled at the messages, deciding it’d be best to reply later to see if she’d send more messages like this. He lied back down on the mattress, staring up at the ceiling, a quiet sigh escaping his lips, his eyes falling shut. He wasn’t one to complain about spending time with his crush, his love for this bad boy flourished over the days with every tutoring session… but thing was, he really missed the other side of Mikaela and he missed going to his other life. He didn’t have much freedom with Mikaela being around him, he didn’t have the time …

“…What do you think I should do mom…” Yuuichirou whispered to himself, referring to his biological mother. He may have never met her, but both Guren and Shinya had told him much about her. They said that she was a very sweet woman, she was great with kids, and she was a rebel. She got pregnant with the boy at a young age. The short teen knew he was unplanned, he was an accident as some would say, but he was the best accident like Guren would say sometimes behind his back, thinking Yuuichirou would never hear. “…It would’ve been nice if I got to see you myself in person… Dad says you’re like a mature version of Shinya with the looks of Shinoa”

Knowing that his words would go unheard, that his question towards his actual mother would go unanswered, he didn’t feel any sadness to know that she wasn’t here. He hasn’t met her, they didn’t have a connection, as they didn’t have a mother and son bond because they never had the chance to do so… but… All of that said, was a lie... He felt at fault.

 Yuuichirou took a deep shaking breath, he was sad that she wasn’t here, knowing his birth caused her death. He was a mistake. He was her demise even though it was common for women to die from complications of childbirth.

The door to the bedroom opened and Yuuichirou sat up, opening his eyes that met up with blue eyes that belonged to the tall teen. Mikaela tilted his head in confusion, seeing the redness within Yuuichirou’s green eyes, “Hey… are you okay…?” he asked, setting the tray with their dinner on top of a dresser.

Yuuichirou blinked, “What do you…” At that moment, Yuuichirou felt tears rolling down his cheeks. Instantly, he wiped them away, rubbing his eyes as he turned his back on Mikaela. “I-I’m fine” he said, flashing a smile that was clearly broken.

Mikaela didn’t buy it and sat beside the short teen, his brows knitting together in worry for a nerd for once in his life. The fact that this feisty, strong nerd was shedding tears was a sign, a sign that meant that something was truly wrong. It was in Yuuichirou’s eyes, they held his true emotions, the sadness within him that was beginning to eat him alive. “…You don’t look okay…”

“I said I’m fine!” Yuuichirou laughed, his voice cracking mid-sentence, his lips quivering as he refused to break down, he refused to unleash the heavy weight in his mind. Taking a deep breath, Yuuichirou had managed to keep his feelings bottled up, he gathered up all the pieces and put them back together before they could ever break again. “…I’m fine…” he whispered, but even if he repeated that in his mind over and over again, he knew he wasn’t fine.

Still not taking a bite into the lie, Mikaela pulled Yuuichirou into a sudden embrace, cradling the nerd’s head, his hand slowly stroking his back. Yuuichirou felt his heart begin to race, his mind deciding to break hell and make him hyperventilate upon the contact. To be held in such a manner, to be in the arms of someone trying to comfort him, it was slowly breaking the wall he had built inside to hold back the emotions. With Mikaela being persistent, it was a difficulty to hide the depression inside him.

It was a small cry that made Mikaela sigh in relief not because Yuuichirou was crying and it was amusing, but it was great to know he was opening up. Yuuichirou brought a hand to grasp the blonde headed teen’s shirt, holding onto him tightly, throwing away his pride, throwing away his double lives for just one second to merge them into one for just this one moment. He held back a few cries before he completely broke into a sob.

“I-I never met her… but s-she died because of me…” Yuuichirou babbled, not caring to elaborate on whom he was speaking of, “If I-I wasn’t born maybe my dad would’ve been happier… I-I wouldn’t be treated like shit by the people that loved her and looked up to her!”

Mikaela didn’t say a word, he just nodded faintly, keeping an open mind, trying to understand the raven-haired teen’s problem. “It was always, oh, she was so sweet, so great, so loyal, so selfless, so smart, and so strong. When others that knew her see me, they are always like oh he’s nothing but a lost cause! He’s the reason such an amazing girl died!”

“…She seemed great…” the bad boy whispered, assuming that Yuuichirou was speaking of was his birth mother.

“S-she was… s-she was young…s-she had a whole life ahead of her and it was cut short because of me! I always ruin shit! I’m always a topic when speaking about her! I wished I wasn’t fucking bor—”

Mikaela hugged Yuuichirou tighter, halting him from talking any further, hearing small muffled sobs as Yuuichirou buried his face into the other male’s shoulder, arms wrapping around him. “…Don’t ever say that… your mom is a part of you, half of your chromosomes come from her. You’re honoring her memory by being you… she would’ve been proud”

“Why are you fucking being nice…” Yuuichirou sniffled, ignoring the fact that Mikaela was starting to be smart around him, but it was most likely a slip up…

“Because… geez can’t a guy be nice out of the ordinary?”

“Um… no…” Yuuichirou mumbled, “There will be a ripple in the space-time continuum and bring the end of the world”

Mikaela chuckled, “Then if that happens, it’s good that I spent the majority of my time with a shrimp like you”

“Fuck you…”

“I see a smile on your face~” Mikaela cooed, poking the young teen’s tear stained cheek, effectively making Yuuichirou’s smile grow wide.

The raven-haired boy laughed, swatting Mikaela’s hand away, still keeping his face hidden, “Stop it” he mumbled. He pulled away from the tall teen, bringing a hand up to wipe away the remaining tears, his eyes now swollen.

Mikaela stood up, kissing the top of Yuuichirou’s head out of random before heading to grab their tray of food. The short teen’s cheeks became a rosy shade, bringing a hand to rub his head, still feeling Mikaela’s lips on him. Mikaela sat back down beside him, their dinner between them. “You know maybe you should really cut back on studying, first you’re sleepy, now you’re starting with this entire emotional thing”

“…I just got emotional because I’m dumb enough to remember…”

“Hey don’t beat yourself up about it, also don’t come at me with that ‘I’m dumb’ bullshit because we both know that you are a fucking nerd”

“You’re such a great person to lean onto during tough times you know” Yuuichirou sarcastically grumbled. He gazed down at their plate of dinner, licking his lips in hunger to see that it was not even dinner. It was freaking dessert.

 Mikaela laughed, “I can’t believe you guys eat shortcake for dinner”

“Shinya has a sweet-tooth…” Yuuichirou chuckled as he grabbed one of the forks and began to dig into the delicious slice of cake.  “It’s dessert dinner tonight!”

“Dessert dinner? That’s new”

“It happens every month, you think this is it? This is just the first dish!”

Mikaela raised a brow as he took a small bite of the cake before sticking his tongue out in disgust. “This is too sweet…”

Yuuichirou rolled his eyes, “Delicious is what it is”

“Taste like sweet cavities”

“How can you not like this?”

The tall teen shrugged, stabbing the poor slice of cake with his fork. “…Never liked sweets, I prefer bitter things, like something with a salty taste”

“Like what?”

“Semen”

Yuuichirou just dropped his fork, his cheeks heating up immediately at the comment. Mikaela burst into a fit of laughter at the young male’s reaction, his expectancy met. Yuuichirou scowled, reaching over to slap Mikaela right across the face, knocking him out of the bed. “You’re disgusting!”

There was a moment of silence and the two stared at each other, staring right into each other’s soul. They could not keep their seriousness and the two began to laugh. Mikaela smiled as he stood up, rubbing his cheek, “I just noticed that your eyes light up when you smile…or laugh”

“I just noticed that you might have an eye fetish”

“I like eyes because that’s the only way you can tell how a person’s feeling” Mikaela took a hold of Yuuichirou’s chin, tilting his head up. “It’s the only thing that cannot lie…”

“…Mikaela…”

“You can call me Mika, there’s no need to be formal with me”

“…Um…okay Mika” Yuuichirou nervously chuckled, “… Guess you can call me… um…”

“Hmm…how about… Small Fry?”

“Why?”

“I tend to prefer fries over guys, and you’re my small fry,” Mikaela said with a wink.

Yuuichirou snorted, “That’s the lamest shit I’ve heard”

“Fine senpai it is then” Mikaela chuckled along with Yuuichirou, feeling quite happy for once with this nerd. His heart was pounding against his chest at the sound of Yuuichirou’s sweet laughter, to see those beautiful emerald eyes shine behind those glasses. He gazed down at the shortcake slices and let out a small sigh, “…Hey I’m probably not going to come to tutoring for a few days, if that’s alright”

The short teen looked at him, “That’s alright, I’ll just tell my dad so he doesn’t force you over to the office every time”

“Thanks senpai, you’re the best. I’ll be back though”

“Sadly”

“Hey!” Mikaela laughed, “Geez you’re so rude”

Yuuichirou smirked, “Why of course, only to my kouhai”

“I feel special”

“You should”

The two exchanged more laughs together, being either sarcastic or just plain hilarious to make the other burst into a fit of uncontrollable laughter. Honestly Yuuichirou didn’t know how fun it was to actually socialize with someone he wouldn’t most likely be with as his nerd self. He knew he was gearing towards his other life at this moment, he knew that if he acted way out of line, Mikaela would suspect a similarity between him and Yuu. Yuuichirou just wasn’t going to risk that, not now, not ever.

Even if he says he wasn’t going to let that happen, he just couldn’t help to smile and laugh with Mikaela. The guy was showing him a side he hasn’t seen, this was the first time Yuuichirou has made a new friend. He was getting to know who Mikaela is and how he acts! The blonde male was only giving the nerd more reasons for him to love him. This blonde dork was going to be the death of Yuuichirou, the tall teen was adorable, he was smart, he was silly, outgoing, he was fucking sexy, and he seemed athletic… how could someone not like him?

Mikaela stretched his arms out, plopping down on the mattress after setting the tray of dirty plates aside. He let Yuuichirou have his shortcake that wasn’t even shortcake anymore, it was a pile of crumbs. “Krul’s probably stuck at work right now…” the blonde teen mumbled, “Means I’m stuck with you… not that I’m complaining. Anyways, you should sleep shrimp-senpai”

“I had enough rest for the day…”

“Bullshit” Mikaela pulled Yuuichirou down beside him, turning to his side to face him with one arm secured around his waist. “It’s good to sleep”

“Well too much sleep can be bad…” Yuuichirou grumbled as he slapped the older teen’s arm, trying to pry it off. “Do you seriously need to hold onto my waist?”

Mikaela only tightened his grip, snuggling close to the short nerd. “This is the best way to sleep…” the bad boy mumbled, burying his face at the short boy’s chest, letting his eyes flutter shut, falling asleep to the sound of Yuuichirou’s fast paced heartbeat.

The young male sighed, bringing his hands to tangle them in the mess of soft curled locks. He ran his fingers through the blonde layers of hair, enjoying the way it felt smooth with every stroke. The nerd took a deep breath, resting his chin on top of Mikaela’s head, trying to relax, trying to regulate the beating of his heart. Mikaela had fallen into a deep slumber already, not making any movements to show that he was not in a way still conscious of his surroundings. Yuuichirou didn’t attempt to move, actually finding the position comfortable.

He took off his glasses and set them a few inches away from him, but just far enough for him to grasp when they wake up. He removed a few bobby pins off his hair, keeping one that held most of his bangs to the left, enough to make him look far different from his other life. “…You better not do weird shit in your sleep” Yuuichirou mumbled, cradling the bad boy’s head in his arms, a small satisfied smile plastered on his lips as he fell asleep.

Guren had arrived home, running a hand through his hair, dark rings under his eyes, as he had to deal with delinquent students all day, kids that are trying to be cool and just wannabe gangsters. The tall male shut the front door and headed towards to the living room to take a nap before going to bed. As he set foot into the living room, he spotted both Krul and Shinya already on the couch, laughing at something one of them said and drinking tea.

The silver haired male noticed his husband and smiled, “Hey Guren, gosh did you have a bad time at work again…?” he asked, tilting his head.

“Yeah, the freshmen want to be cool, very annoying like usual…” he grumbled as he walked up to the two, “Hey Krul, what are you doing here?”

“Oh both Mika and Yuuichirou fell asleep, didn’t want to wake them up, they looked really tired,” Krul said as she brought a cup of tea up to her lips, sipping the warm drink.

Guren pinched the bridge of their nose, “Please tell me my son is still a virgin”

Krul chuckled, “Don’t worry, he is, Mikaela won’t take advantage of the principal’s son anyways, he knows he’ll get his ass kicked by all of us if he does” she smiled, “Besides Mikaela leans more towards liking women rather than men, so the chances for him to actually want to fuck a guy is pretty low, well right now”

“So when are you going to wake him up?” Guren sighed as he took a seat with them, lulling his head back, with an arm draped over the couch.

The young woman merely shrugged, “I was hoping to ask if he can stay for a short sleepover, he rarely gets any sleep at home. So seeing him sleeping for once is a miracle”

“Sleepover? What do you think Shinya?”

The young male smiled, “As long as he doesn’t destroy the house then it’s alright,” he giggled. “I should probably go get them some blankets, it’s going to be chilly tonight”

“One blanket is enough, Mikaela surprisingly has a lot of body heat. Yuuichirou would most likely move away from him the longer they stay cuddled up”

“Wait they’re cuddling!” Guren shouted out of nowhere.

“It’s just cuddling, Guren”

“Cuddling can lead to sex!”

“No it—”

“Sex that will most likely be unprotected and pass down an STD to my son!”

Krul elbowed Guren in the stomach, carefully holding her cup of tea with one hand, pinky raised out of habit. Guren hunched over from the pain, glaring at the young woman who sipped at the tea as if nothing had happened. “Mika does not have any STDs I can guarantee you that, he isn’t dumb enough to fuck some random bitch with a possibility he will get a transmitted disease”

Shinya chuckled, “Can’t blame Guren, he’s just being the protective daddy he is supposed to be at all times” the young male stood up and stretched his arms, “You’re welcomed to stay as well if you want Krul”

“Thank you for the offer, but I have to pass. I have to help Ferid deal with his homophobic parents in about an hour” She stood up and set the empty ceramic cup on the coffee table. She turned to face Guren and smiled as she patted his head, “Don’t you dare see my little brother as some slut you hear me?”

The man cleared his throat and nodded, fearing that he’ll be hit again honestly. He didn’t have the energy to put up of fight, he was spent, and he just wanted to sleep peacefully in bed. Krul left the room right after giving Shinya a short hug as a form of goodbye before she walked out the living room to head to the front door. Guren stood up, rubbing his stomach as he heard the front door close. Shinya merely giggled again, reaching over to wrap his arms around his husband’s neck.

“Do you want me to help you up to bed?” Shinya questioned as he kissed Guren’s cheek, feeling the older man’s arms snake around his waist.

Guren buried his head at the crook of his husband’s neck, closing his eyes out of sheer tiredness. “…I’m afraid that if I go upstairs I might hear the two fucking…” he grumbled.

“Mikaela won’t fuck him. Like Yuuichirou is beautiful, he gets his handsomeness from you, but you know he isn’t willing to lose his virginity to some bad boy” Shinya ran his fingers through the short black locks, a smile forming on his lips. “Will it kill you to actually trust Yuuichirou…”

“Kid had to deal with a lot of bastards and bitches that wanted him for sex, I’m just don’t want my baby to get hurt”

“Aw you called him baby, I knew you were a good dad!” Shinya chuckled as he hugged Guren tighter, slightly crushing the other male. “You’re always such an ass to him”

Guren shrugged, chuckling tiredly, “I have to toughen him up, get him ready to make comebacks. Like mentally prepare him for shit that will come his way. I don’t want Tenri or Kureto getting to his head”

“True…”Shinya let out a quiet yawn, “Come on papa bear. Let’s get some sleep”

“Alright…” Guren actually giggled, but it was a very tired giggle, as he hasn’t gotten any kind of rest. “Lead the way”

The room was peacefully silent. Yuuichirou blinked a couple of times, rubbing his eyes with one hand, feeling something soft against his other hand. Managing to see just a bit, he saw Mikaela sleeping soundly beside him, his face inches closer to his. Yuuichirou’s breath hitched at the sight of Mikaela, noticing every single flawless detail on his face. The older teen had a chiseled jaw, his skin was a fair tone, he had long beautiful eyelashes, and his slightly curly bangs fell over to the side of his face.

Yuuichirou turned his body completely around, his back on the tall male. He still felt those arms around him, not caring since he just wanted to go back to sleep. Just as he closed his eyes, he felt the grip around his middle tighten, the taller male curling up just behind him their bodies pressed together. Not a word was said, the silence was here to stay.

Feeling his heart accelerate, the nerd tried to move away, but his body refused, he was tired. “…Idiot stop…” he mumbled, gripping the bad boy’s arm, “Mika…?”

“Mm…” The older boy groaned, pressing his forehead tightly against the nape of the younger boy’s neck, shifting slightly to get into a more comfortable position, his grip tightening on Yuuichirou.

The nerd yelp, the pressure pushing the oxygen right out of his lungs. He tried to take a deep breath, but with the tight grip on him, it constricted his chest from rising to take in the fresh air. “Mika you’re crushing me!” Yuuichirou groaned, elbowing Mikaela’s side in hopes to get him to loosen up his arms. It just made matters worse as Mikaela made sure to wrap his arms over Yuuichirou’s arms, holding them in a tight grip, forbidding him from using them. Not only that, but Mikaela also hooked a leg over the short boy, trapping him underneath. “Mikaela!” the younger boy shouted in anger, struggling frantically under him.

“…you’re loud…” Mikaela murmured against the nerd’s ear. He let out a silent yawn, his body tensing up for a short few seconds. Being nice, he released his hold on Yuuichirou, turning around with his back to him as he curled up into a ball before falling asleep again.

Yuuichirou sat up, coldness hit quickly, his body shivering and his teeth clattering. Mikaela was actually keeping him warm and he kinda regretted making the tall teen let go of him. Blushing, the short teen scooted closer, wrapping his arm around Mikaela’s waist, the older teen’s body heat radiating onto him. A soft chuckle came from Mikaela, startling Yuuichirou. “You cold…?” he asked tiredly.

Yuuichirou hummed in response, closing his eyes as he buried his face against Mikaela’s back. The blonde haired male turned around, facing Yuuichirou. He pulled the nerd into an embrace, “Don’t crush me…” Yuuichirou whispered.

“I won’t… you know you’re really huggable…”

“…I’ve been told that before…”

“Not much of a surprise…” Mikaela flashed a faint smile, tangling his legs with the younger boy. “What I am surprised about is that you’re not trying to fight me right now…”

“I’m tired… besides you’re super warm…”

“I’ve told you countless times to sleep, but you don’t listen…”

Yuuichirou sighed, “I’m busy… I’ll be taking college courses soon”

“College courses? Where?”

“Not sure…Mom has connections… I’m not sure when they’ll start though…”

Mikaela gazed down at Yuuichirou, noticing the nerd hadn’t open his eyes one bit, refusing to reveal his emerald eyes. The blonde teen lifted himself up slightly, “I’ll got get blankets, I’ll sleep on the—”

Yuuichirou gripped the bad boy’s collar shirt, his eyes still closed, “Stay… you’ll just be wasting energy…” he mumbled, yanking Mikaela back down. The older teen blushed, smiling faintly as he rewrapped his arms around Yuuichirou’s waist, burying his face in the crook of the young teen’s neck. Yuuichirou brought his hands up, tangling themselves in the soft blonde curls as Mikaela had quickly fallen asleep.

The short male took a deep breath, letting his eyes fall shut, his body feeling limp, feeling relaxed. He snuggled closer to the bad boy, his warmth addictive, welcoming. The two unconsciously tangled  their legs together, locking each other in their position. Yuuichirou could feel his heart accelerating at the fact that they had no space between them. It felt as if they were close in terms of being more than friends, if that is what they were to begin with.

“So you mean to tell me that you guys cuddled while sleeping?” Shinoa was walking beside Yuu, a brow raised at her nephew. Yuu had told her all about yesterday and everything that had gone down that day. He mentioned the break down, he mentioned their short moment of actually getting to know each other, and lastly the cuddling that Mikaela was insisting in the beginning. “You guys are weird as fuck honestly. One moment you hate on each other, but then it’s like you’ve been friends for a while. So, love-hate relationship eh?”

Yuu groaned, rubbing the back of his neck, “Believe me, it’s fucking hard to not be rude to him, I do like him… it’s just the fact that he’s a bad boy is what’s bothering me” he grumbled.

The short girl clung to the older teen’s arm, letting out a yawn, “Totally understandable, honestly I would’ve smacked the shit out of him if he wanted to be an ass and still cuddle”

“Wait real question, if I date him as I am now, and he wants to fuck me when I’m a nerd, would he be cheating on me?”

“…Bro… I never thought of it that way!” Shinoa laughed, “I dare you! I flipping dare you to do that! See if he’s worth it! If he doesn’t come clean to you, dump his ass like the trash he is! We can always be crazy cat people!”

“Nah, what are the chances of him falling for my nerd self! Hell it’s been long since I’ve been my other self! I doubt that Mikaela would remember!”

“Speak of the devil…” Shinoa mumbled, spotting Mikaela heading their way with his eyes glued to his phone for a few seconds before gazing up to see the pair.

“Quick, act straight with me!”

“Fucking shit Yuu-san! Too late, abort mission! Abort! I re-fucking-peat! Abort!”

Aborting their supposed mission was too late as Mikaela now stood in front of the short duo, towering over them. His blue eyes were fixated on Yuu, a smile forming on his lips, making the short boy smile faintly in return. “Hey Mika” Yuu calmly said despite screaming internally along with the fast beating of his heart, creating a music based on the fear he was feeling inside.

“Hey, it’s been long” Mikaela chuckled, “How have you been?”

“Good, how about you”

“Same, is this uh… your girlfriend?”

“Lol, he wishes” Shinoa snickered, elbowing Yuu’s side.

The moment she said that, Mikaela’s eyes seem to have lightened under the gleaming sun. Yuu didn’t gaze into his eyes, he didn’t want to fall more for this bad boy secretly a nerd. Mikaela grabbed Yuu’s arm and pulled him away from Shinoa, “Hope you don’t mind, I’m going to steal him for a bit”

“Wait what!”

Shinoa grinned, “Go ahead! I’ll be waiting here, take all the time you need”

“Thanks”

“Wait, do I not get my opinion on this!”

“Nope” Mikaela picked up Yuu and practically flung him over his shoulder and began to walk away with him. Shinoa cackled, having to lean against a nearby wall as she began to die from laughter.

Yuu pounded his fist against the tall teen’s back, wanting to be put down, but it was obvious Mikaela wasn’t going to set him down. “This is kidnapping!”

“I’m simply borrowing you”

“I am not a freaking object!”

“Shush, you would’ve been stubborn to follow me anyways”

“Damn it this is a violation of my human rights!”

“Which one out of thirty?”

“…well…” Yuu groaned, landing on more punch on Mikaela’s back before giving up, “…Fuck I forgot…”

“Exactly”
