krystalkatzficz | Sleeping with the boss part 6 (Reply)

Nino watched as the couples swayed around on the large ballroom floor to the Christmas songs that were coming out of the large speakers that were trimmed with tinsel. He recognised a lot of the dancers as workers from the Matsumoto building and judging from their reactions they recognised him too and he knew that when his father went into work on Monday morning this news was going to be running through the building like wild fire. Nino shook the thought away to look at the decorations that were hung on every surface and in the corner a large full pine tree stood at least 16 foot high towering over the room and at its base were 100’s of presents wrapped in bright paper. His family had never been into celebrating Christmas, he could only remember one year that his mother had tried to give him something that resembled a Christmas. It was when he was six years old and his father had been out of town. She had brought a tiny Christmas tree and wrapped it in gold tinsel underneath had been two presents. He had thought that there would be one for her one for him but in the end they had been both for him. The first was a collection of super sentai figures, the cheap kind that had only lasted for four or five plays and the other had been a t-shirt with the blue sentai ranger on the front, the dinner that day had been amazing too.

“What are you thinking about?” Jun asked softly his arms wrapping around him his cheek pressing into his as they rocked slowly from side to side in time with the song that was playing. Nino stiffened just the tiniest bit at the action and then relaxed allowing himself to enjoy it.

“My mum…I think that…I should buy her a present…” he said surprised at how choked his voice was and quickly he hurried to push away the knot that had formed against his Adam’s apple. Over the years he had forgotten that, his mother had lost her will to fight with his father instead choosing to follow everything that he did or said for the sake of a peaceful life.

“Then tomorrow I will take you shopping…I know the perfect shop for mothers…” Jun told him and although Nino wanted to protest he knew that the tone of his voice was one that wouldn’t accept an argument. “Now come on let’s go and dance…”

“I’m not much of a dancer…” Nino admitted as he allowed himself to be pulled onto the dance floor by his boss and pretend boyfriend. Jun let out a laugh and then tugged his arms so they were pressed together chest to chest their bodies moving in a slow and steady beat that was almost out of sync with the music Jun’s mouth pressed against his ear and he whispered;

“Neither am I but since I get to press up against you I think it’s worth it…”

“…Careful, sir” Nino croaked his voice shaky as he focused on where he was putting his feet, even if it was more of a foot shuffle than a real dance he didn’t want to crush the older man’s feet or shoes, he couldn’t believe the words that were coming freely and sweetly out of Jun’s mouth. It wasn’t fear to give him more hope than he already had “…I think that you might be going overboard with this pretend date…I might start…Believing it…”

“I think that you definitely should start believing it…I already decided that I would want more than tonight…” Jun told him easily and confidently, seemingly not caring that his words almost caused Nino’s heart to try and break free from his chest. He gulped looking into the beautiful face of his boss, who was grinning happily, and asked;

“Oh, when?”

“I would say right before I kissed you in the cloak room…But the truth is when I was sat in the café…I decided that anybody who could make me excited as you do I’d be an idiot if I let you go after one night…” Jun purred in his ear though Nino could barely hear him over the sound of his heart hammering against his ear drums. His hands clung to the man’s grey jumper terrified that he would going to be woken up at any second “Of course this is all if you want to date me…”

“Yes…” he almost shouted before blushing hotly and looking down at the floor as Jun gave another laugh “I mean…Um we could try it right?”

“Right…” Jun chuckled tilting his face up with his fingertip and motioning to the plant that was dangling above their heads. There were clumps of the stuff hanging all around, green with light yellow buds “Do you know what that is?”

“Mistletoe…” Nino answered slowly knowing where this was going even before he saw the wicked smirk that was on Jun’s very kissable lips as he asked;

“And what are you meant to do under the mistletoe?”

“Kiss…” He answered his heart racing again as his eyes darted around looking at the people that were dancing and messing around them. Nobody seemed to be paying attention to them but he was still nervous about kissing with everyone watching them. “Um…”

“Just a small one” Jun whispered closing the distance between them and giving him the lightest of kisses to his lips. The light kiss lasted for about a second until Nino gasped his lips parting to allow in the warm probing tongue. Nino moaned as he moved against his date still swaying along with the music that was playing. The younger man pulled away when his boss gave a hungry sounding growl, “Sorry…”

“It was nice…” Nino admitted his tongue moving slowly over his lips and Jun chuckled happily spinning him around before pulling him into his arms again.

“Having fun?” Jun asked in his ear his lips grazing over his skin as they moved together in this awkward little dance

“Y-yes…”

“I am so happy that you’re enjoying yourself, Nino-chan but now you must have a dance with me, my darling!” Sachiko said shrilly hurrying over to them. She pushed in between them, her face flushed and her eyes dilated indicating that she’d had more than a few drinks, and then thrust the dog towards Jun “Here Jun! Hold Pokey!”

“Yes mother” Jun sighed wrinkling his nose as he reached out for the pink poodle who began to growl and yap at him as his hands approached. Nino couldn’t believe how much the dog had changed. The soft passive animal looked almost furious at being handled “You need a muzzle…”

“Oh tosh! He just loves his mummy…Come on Nino-chan let us rock the dance floor…You can tell me which of my son’s charms was the one that won you over!”
