The next morning started gloomily with rain hammering against the wooden blinds that passed for windows and Masaki felt like a cat wanting only to stay in bed and wait for it to pass over knew that was impossible, more so since Sakurai seemed to be full of energy, but it was a nice idea to think about. The temperature seemed to have dropped as well and his nose burned with the cool air that was in the air. He lay happily wrapped in the mass of blankets watching his husband through half closed eyes listening to the sound of the rain against the side of the building. It was an ominous sound, which filled him with more dread than he was filling last night as he listened to it and he felt his stomach swirl around not once but twice before he realised that Sakurai was talking to him.
“Masaki…As tempting as it is to allow you to stay curled up in your nest like a dormouse I am sure that you will wish to see your friend…” Sakurai said coming to sit on the bed and tugging the blankets away from his nose so that they could look at each other. “We will soon be leaving and it may be some time before you see each other again…”
“…Yes…You are right…” Masaki nodded recognising the truth in his words and he sat up rubbing the crust of sleep from his eyes and stretching out his back as he yawned loudly blushing when he saw Sakurai staring at him with a loving smile on his face “W-What?”
“Nothing, my love…I am still happy to be able to see you like this, all sleep rumpled...It is an endearing sight…” Sakurai told him while Masaki tried to frantically straighten out his hair with his fingertips. The older man let out a laugh darting forward and capturing his lips lightly as his arms wrapped around him holding him against his chest “So many new things that I can learn about my Masaki, I look forward to it…But for now, my love the water is as hot as they could make it so you should bathe and then we can go down and see your friend and mine…”
Masaki shivered a few times as the blankets were all tugged away from his body and the cold air hit him full on seemingly caressing the parts of his skin that weren’t covered by the long nightshirt that he wore. He bit his lip staring at the large tin bath that was set in front of a cheery fire hoping that the little puffs of steam that were raising up from it weren’t just fooling him.
“Have you had a bath, husband?” He asked looking at Sakurai who was already fully dressed. The soldier’s hair was still damp and sticking to the places that it met his skin giving him his answers before Sakurai even opened his mouth to say;
“Yes, husband…You are a heavy sleeper…I felt for sure that they would wake you when they first brought the water and then again when they took it away again to bring yours but you barely even moved…”
“The bed is warm…Or it was...I have never slept as well as I do now before…Having you in the bed should be strange but…It feels nice…” Masaki mumbled blushing again when he thought about it. He would have thought that he would have to get used to all the things that came with sharing a bed, like getting used to somebody else being there for starters or all the little movements that somebody else made but it felt comfortable sleeping next to Sakurai.
“…I am the same…It feels good to have you beside me...” Sakurai told him a hand coming to rest on his cheek his fingers lightly caressing him “I had imagined it many times but to feel you against me is perfect…But this does not change the fact that the more we talk the more the water grows cold…Come on…I will wish your back for you…”

Nino woke with a jump as Jun kicked out in his sleep a moan tearing from his throat that sounded as if he was in pain. His first thoughts wen to the injury on his chest, he had seemed okay last night when he had returned from the outhouse but he had also been asleep so it was possible that he had just mistaken that for him being okay. He sat up on his knees and looked down onto the face of his husband. He was pale, not as much as he had been yesterday, but his eyes were closed tightly and his jaw was pressed into a thin line as he gave another moan. Nervously Nino reached out a shook him by the shoulder gasping in shock and fear when his wrist was grabbed and held tight painfully tight until it was almost breaking point.
“Hus-Husband!” He gasped out hitting his shoulder with his free hand and Jun opened his eyes slowly blinking as he looked up at him. A puzzled frown formed between his eyebrows for a moments and then he sighed his body relaxing and his hand releasing his wrist.
“I am sorry, sprite…” Jun mumbled with a yawn his fingers moving through his sleep ruffled hair as he pushed himself slowly into a seated position looking out at him from almost red rimmed eyes “I was having a bad dream…I did not mean to hurt you…”
“…I…Are…Are you in pain?” Nino asked chewing the corner of his mouth his eyes going down to the bandage glad to see that it was holding up. Last night after he had returned from his walk he had lain in the bed and thought about what he had had heard the soldiers discussing and wondering what he should do if it was true that Jun was in love with Toma. There was nothing that he could actually do about the circumstances, he and Jun were married and nothing…Except death could change that now…But that didn’t mean that Jun couldn’t have what he wanted he had heard of lord’s, and lady’s, that had lovers that were known about by their partners. Jun’s hand came up to rest over the bandage and he gave a very small smile shaking his head a shrugging all at the same time as he mumbled;
“…A little…But nothing to concern yourself with…Your flowers are doing as you said…Even my father’s best healer would be impressed…You really are a sprite…”
“I…Um…My mother…She…She told me…” Kazu stammered his ears burning at the praise that sounded strange coming from his husband. Jun let out a small half chuckle, half sigh as he hummed thoughtfully and stroked his chin saying;
“My father was right then, the only ones worth anything from your family are your mother and you…”
“And Masaki…” Kazu added automatically, even though Masaki was only the ward of the Ninomiya house for him he was better than his own brother and Kazu counted him as part of his real family even if nobody else did. In his opinion Masaki was worth a 100 of his brother and more than that of his father. Jun let out a hum of agreement as he nodded stroking the back of his neck before saying;
“Ah yes, of course…He will be leaving the party today…He and Sho will be traveling west to go to their estate while we go north to my father…”
“…Yes...My husband…” Kazu nodded his head hanging quickly as the reminder that Masaki was leaving came like a physical punch to the stomach. They hadn’t actually spent much time together since the journey had started but just the knowledge that he was there had been comforting but now that was going.
“Come…I am sure that they are awake now…Let us dress and go down…So you may spend time with them…” Jun told him in a very surprisingly gentle voice that seemed to even shock him and Kazu swallowed down the lump that had formed nodding as he whispered;
“Thank-you…”

How blind can he be???
Although I have already noticed he is very insecure... He seems to feel like he is un-worthy of things, and Jun's love may be on top of that.
