krystalkatzficz | Break-ups and New meetings part 90 (Reply)

Jun groaned loudly as he checked his watch. It was already well after nine and given all of their late nights it was very likely that Nino had either gone to bed or was sitting in his PJ’s playing a video game. It didn’t mind so much, it wasn’t as if they’d had any concrete plans but he had wanted something. Sigh he climbed into the elevator far too tired to bother with climbing the stairs. His muscles ached which was strange considering he hadn’t been doing any heavy lifting but he supposed that the meeting had been stressful though and that was what was causing his muscles to feel so tight around his shoulders. The elevator came to a stop and he yawned getting out and eagerly headed to his apartment his key card in his hand immediately becoming surprised when the door was thrown open and Aiba was coming out a huge grin on his face.

“Aiba-san?”

“Hello, Jun-kun!” Masaki said in an overly familiar way giving him a salute and a wink before heading off to the elevator whistling loudly and tunelessly all the way. Rolling his eyes to shake off his surprise Jun walked into the darkened apartment guided by a flickering light.

“Nino? I’m home…Are you here?” He asked surprised at the lack of sound coming from within and he was even more surprised when he opened the door to the living room/kitchen. Around a dozen candles were scattered around the room with strings of lights around the room. The table was decorated with a crisp white table cloth and scattered with little pink love hearts, sparkles and glitter around the plate which were filled with amazing looking food. It wasn’t over done but it was enough to cause a strange kind of flutter deep inside his stomach. The best part of it was Nino who was standing next to the table with a shy smile on his face. “Nino…What…? Since when were you so…Romantic?”

“Shut up…I wanted to…Surprise you…” Nino mumbled looking so delightfully unsure that Jun couldn’t stop himself from ginning all of the tension slipping away from his body “I think Masaki went a little overboard with the decorations…But…Anyway…Um…The food should be good…I think…At least…Um…Sit down…”

“Yes, sir!” Jun quipped tossing his briefcase down onto the sofa and settling himself into the chair in front of his empty plate while Nino did on
the opposite side of the table. “You didn’t have to do all of this…”

“I know and I wouldn’t have done it if I didn’t want to…” Nino shrugged lifting up the lids from the dishes and Jun had to admit that his stomach grumbled happily at the scent which assaulted his nostrils. His mouth watered a little and he was more than eager to sample everything even if he couldn’t understand what he had done to deserve it. Eating the food with a happy smile he couldn’t help but notice that Nino was watching him with a rather strange expression on his face. “Did you mean it…What you said…”

“About letting you do me?” Jun asked with some surprise his lips twitching into a smile wondering if this was all it about “Of course I meant it…You didn’t have to do all this…”

“You idiot…!” Nino hissed his cheeks colouring brightly as he glared at him “I meant…About you loving me? You told me that you loved me…”

“I know I did and you told me that you cared about me…”

“Yeah…Well I can’t be right about everything…” Nino grumped spearing a carrot before dropping it back down onto his plate and mumbling “I don’t just care about you…I’m in love with you…”
