krystalkatzficz | Kazunari Matsumoto-Ninomiya part 34

“Wow this tastes amazing!” Masaki moaned in pleasure as he bit into the flesh of the fish and Nino couldn’t help but agree. He had eaten a lot of fish as Jun had read somewhere that it was good for him but this, this was something amazing more so because it was the fish that he had caught with his own hands. The stone cooked meat was just as good to but everything was made even better by the fact that he was sitting with his back again Satoshi’s chest as they eat. It felt somewhat incredible without being too nerve wrecking and he allowed himself to lean against it and enjoy the warmth coming from his body as he looked out over the lake. He could see easily why this was called the Black Lake. The water was an inky black just lazily stretching out to the horizon with tiny sparkles of light playing around on the surface. The large trees that were surrounding it though were beautiful from this angle, never had imagined that could be so many shades of green or reds and oranges. It was a fantastic scene and he wondered if this was why Satoshi had started painting and he couldn’t resist asking;

“Ne…Satoshi…Have you painted this lake?”

“More than once…I sat here thinking that I wanted to paint it…They weren’t very good though…I improved a lot when I was in prison…” Satoshi answered and Nino stiffened his eyes moving to Sho and Masaki worried that the mention of prison might set Sho back but the sappy idiot couple were too busy eating from the food wrapped in their own little world. “There were no windows in my room just an opening in the door out onto the walkways “I painted the images that I wanted to see…If I had been dating you then I might have focused more on portraits…”

“I’m only 17…Three years ago I would have been 14…” Nino pointed out stupidly his eyes blinking slowly as his cheeks flushed brightly not knowing how else he was meant to reply to that. Satoshi’s face wrinkled cutely lines forming in his nose as he allowed those words to sink in before whispering;

“…Yup…That’s a little creepy when you point that out…”

“Sorry…” The younger man whispered hoping that Satoshi wouldn’t find their age difference creepy now. It wasn’t all that large after all and in a few years nobody would find it all that strange but at the moment it sounded a little gross. Satoshi though let out a soft hum resting his chin on his shoulder and staring into the fire that had started to die down but was still casting a warming glow around them.

“There was a kid in my cell around that age…” He muttered eventually and Nino struggled hard to imagine being sent to prison so young “It was weird cause I wasn’t yet 21 I was sent to the Juvenile Detention centre and he was only around 14/15 every night he cried himself to sleep…”

“That’s…Tough…Why was he in?” Nino asked suspecting that he would have done the same. He couldn’t imagine being anywhere without Jun for so long let alone somewhere that sounded so depressing and scary but he didn’t want to admit that to Satoshi.

“He stole some shit…He was only in for a year before he got out…But I wasn’t particularly nice to him…” Satoshi said with a soft huff pouting as he looked into the fire. “He had the top bunk on the first night he was there and he pissed the bed…after that you can imagine that I wasn’t pleased with him…Sorry…I know you don’t want to hear about this stuff…”

“I do…But after that you had the top bunk right?”

“Too right I did…”
