A Love Time Cannot Change

Summary: A few years after high school, Choutarou ran into Shishidou and they began sharing an apartment. A few months later, they get into a fight (over nothing really), and Choutarou spills out what he's been meaning to say since middle school.

Hey, this is my first yaoi story…it's actually taken from my other OC story, but since I can't post that one, I changed it around to work for the lovely Silver Pair (which it already worked for anyway…strange how that happens XD) Hope you all enjoy!

"Choutarou! Why won't you talk to me?"

"What is there to talk about?!" Choutarou cried. He tried to run away again, but was caught by Shishidou's strong grip on his wrist.

"You know damn well what it is! Like why are you ignoring me?! Why can't you even bear to look at my face?!"

"Because!"

"Because why?!"

"Because I'm afraid I'll do something stupid!"

"Like what, may I ask?!"

"Like kiss you!"

Shishidou loosened his grip on Choutarou's wrist as he stared into those huge eyes, now filled with tears.

"Wha….what?"

"Every time I see you I want to kiss you!" Choutarou grabbed Shishidou's jacket by the shoulders. "When ever you come into the room I can't look at you 'cause I know my face is bright red and I don't want you to see. Whenever you speak my name, I shiver at your voice. And when you touch me, oh god, my heart almost stops beating. Even now my heart is pounding out of control! If it wasn't for my ribs, I swear it would have ripped right out of my chest!" He leaned his head on Shishidou's shoulder and sobbed into his jacket.

"I know…..I can feel it….." Shishidou said blushing and turning his eyes.

"Huh?" Choutarou looked up.

"I….I can feel your heartbeat against me."

"………" Choutarou looked away, embarrassed beyond belief.

"Can you feel mine?"

Choutarou looked up into those beautiful bright eyes of the older boy. He then felt his hand being gently grabbed.

"Can you feel my heart beating?" Shishidou took Choutarou's hand and slid it under his jacket so that it rested over his heart.

Choutarou could only marvel at what he felt. Shishidou's skin was so soft and thin, and he could easily feel his heart beating just as fast as his.

'It…..almost feels like a butterfly's wings…..only stronger….' Choutarou thought to himself, blushing again as he felt the strong but gentle pulsing of the boy's heart through his skin with his fingertips.

"Do you know why it beats like that?" Shishidou whispered close to his face, snapping Choutarou out of his thoughts.

"Wh…..wh…why?" Choutarou managed to get out, his face turning darker, and his heart beating so fast he was surprised it didn't kill him.

"Because…." Shishidou said softly, so close to Choutarou's face he could feel his sweet breath on his cheek.

The next thing Choutarou knew, Shishidou's lips were mere millimeters from his own. As Shishidou's lips came closer and he started to close his eyes, it was all Choutarou could do to not run for the door.

Shishidou's arms suddenly wrapped around Choutarou's slender body, one across his waist and the other gently holding the back of his head, and the slightly cracked lips touched the petal soft ones in a single, fluid motion.

Choutarou was stunned. The only thing he could think of was to close his eyes. He found once he did, the kiss he had been longing for for years was all the more enjoyable.

As Shishidou felt Choutarou relax in his arms, he took the opportunity to take the lead by slowly pushing his tongue between the younger boy's lips. Choutarou could sometimes be stubborn, but tonight he was giving in, which Shishidou felt was an advantage as he slipped his tongue into the other's mouth.

Their tongues entwined in their dance and, every so often, would break apart to explore the other's mouth. Shishidou shoved his tongue down towards Choutarou's throat, earning him a quick moan and shudder.

"That is why, my friend…" Shishidou said breaking out of their passionate kiss, "….that is why my heart beats for you...I love you Choutarou."

"What?"

Shishidou hugged him tighter to his body, "I love you Choutarou, more than life itself. I love you so much I'd even die for you."

"I…..I love you too Shishidou-san. I love you so much…" Choutarou stuttered, choking on his tears as he hugged the older boy back.

Choutarou was amazed. How in the world did he earn his old doubles partner's love? How could the amazing tennis player possibly be attracted to him…just a simple boy he used to play tennis with? Shishidou had been his first friend in middle school, as well as his first and only love. Because of that love, he had been determined to get stronger….so that one day he could be just as good at tennis as Shishidou was then. Every day for years afterward, he practiced as long and hard as he could. After high school, fate had parted them for a few years, and now Choutarou, 23 and an upcoming violinist, ran into his first love, a taller, 24 year old tennis club coach, about three months ago, and they had been living together since. It turned out Shishidou had left his house because of a forced arranged marriage to a woman he did not love, and finally came back (once the woman married someone else) looking for his old doubles partner. Choutarou never in his wildest dreams imagined that he'd see the boy he fell in love with, now a handsomer, strong man, and learn that all this time his feelings were returned.

"Choutarou" Shishidou whispered into his ear, tickling it.

"Ahhhhh…..please don't do that to me Shishidou-san…"

Shishidou smirked, "Then what do you want me to do to you?"

"What do I want? Do you really want to know what I want? I want what I've wanted since I was placed as your doubles partner…I want you Shishidou-san….and I want you to ravish me."

End of the first chapter! There are a few more parts, but I might not post them unless people actually want to read on….I most likely will post them though :) Hope you enjoyed it! Oh, reviews are most welcomed ;) They'll let me know if I should keep going on with the story or if it was really bad and no one wants to finish it…
