Note: at the beginning this chapter was just 500 words long then somehow it became a sort of collection of one-shots of their life together! LOL Enjoy ^^
A few months passed since they moved in their new home and started living together, it really had been easy to settle in their new life as a couple, just like they really were destined to each other.
It was a cold morning when Takumi woke up and saw Gii still sleeping serenely. Everything was surrounded by the gentle blue of dawn and light started to make its way through the curtains. Takumi stared at his lover's sleeping face with gentle eyes, an unconscious loving smile touched his lips at the sweet sight. Gii was in the middle of a big business transaction and he had to work harder than usual lately, now that it was going to be completed soon the result of fatigue showed more in his lover's handsome face. Takumi decided to get up, it would take some more time before the alarm clock would rouse Gii from his needed sleep.
Later on Gii reached the kitchen to see his lover next to a full Japanese breakfast on the table, he was speechless, Takumi saw him and flashed him a smile "Good morning!"
Gii walked towards him and still looking at the table locked him in his embrace then said "Good morning my love" and kissed him.
Takumi indicated the table "For you Mr president"
:-:-:-:-: :-:-:-:-:
It was just a stupid fight really, nothing serious, but they couldn't meet for a few days after that and it made it all worse. If they had the time to make up it'd have stayed a worthless fight and they'd have forgotten all about it by now, but they hadn't had that time, just after that Gii had to leave for a couple of days for work and when he returned Takumi left for his concert.
When Takumi stepped inside their home after coming back from another date of his tour, Gii was home, he turned around for a moment when he heard his lover closing the door behind him but remained silent. Takumi took a moment before turning and walking in. Still in silence he walked very slowly, both held an unreadable expression, both tried to look as normal as possible, but nothing about that scene was normal. The air was heavy just like their hearts and neither knew how to start to break the oppressive silence. Takumi reached the table in the living room where Gii sat at looking over some papers, and stopped for a few seconds to look at him encouraged by the fact that Gii was looking down at those documents, then Takumi could see that Gii wasn't really looking at them, they were more like a pretext to do something instead of looking to his lover with longing eyes. Takumi put what he was holding down, not caring about anything but the violin which he put carefully on the table, before walking to the kitchen and getting himself a glass of water. Gii took advantage of this to steal a look in his direction. He could finally look properly at him after too long, the stupid tiff making that time apart feeling awfully longer, and he could feel so strong emotions going through him. Both, unknowingly to the other, sighted at the same time 'I miss you..'
Takumi then reached their room, he passed by his lover, both didn't even risk a quick glance to the other. It passed some time. They were still acting the same but the longing in their hearts grew bigger every passing second.
After some time, when Takumi returned to the living room, Gii was sitting on one end of the sofa holding his documents, but really reading them this time. Takumi walked casually to the sofa and slowly walked around the other end opposite his lover, before sitting down, while Gii turned his full attention to him the whole time without averting his gaze. Both started to think how stupid this whole situation was, it's been a stupid tiff that's all but after those days when they didn't meet nor talk, both didn't know what the other was thinking, and there really weren't any apology needed in the first place so.. what to do now?
'I miss you' once again their thoughts coincided, each sitting at the far ends of the sofa, silence between them, but not in their minds, they were acting like "a first night out with your boyfriend" date. At some point almost simultaneously Gii put his papers aside and Takumi inched closer. A few seconds later they were in the middle of their sofa tightly hugging.
"Sorry I was so stupid!"
"I was being an idiot, sorry!"
Both exclaimed excitedly at the same time. Realizing what both said, the two lovers burst in a happy and carefree laugh, and that's how their 'fight' resolved.
:-:-:-:-: :-:-:-:-:
Takumi just woke up when he reached the living room. 'He picked up my papers too' he thought with a smile looking at his bag on the table with his violin score inside.
Yesterday night, Takumi's scores and Gii's business bag flew in the air scattering the content all around the room when the two lovers kissed fervently forgetting everything else. Takumi blushed and smiled remembering the passion in their lovemaking.
"Where is it?" he wondered when he couldn't find a part of his violin score. In that moment Gii called him to say he had took it with him by mistake "I'll come and pick it up" Takumi answered getting ready to reach his lover's workplace.
Takumi stepped inside his office and closed the door when Gii rose from his seat and walked around his desk as soon as he saw him. When they were within arm reach, Gii glanced up to the door to make sure it was closed then, positive no one would see them, he kissed his beloved fondly on the lips. A big smile played on their lips when they pulled away, not daring to risk being seen.
A beep resonated through their silent reunion "Saki-sama, the meeting will start in five minutes"
Gii sighted "Have to go now" and stole another sweet kiss from his beloved "Your score is inside my desk, top left-hand drawer" he added before making his way out of his own office; in the same time Takumi walked to Gii's desk, he walked around it and stopped at its right side when he lifted his gaze to watch his lover, finding him on the door looking adoringly at him. They exchanged a sweet smile then Gii exited the room and Takumi without thinking reached out his arm to open the top drawer though he didn't find what he was looking for but something a thousand times better.
"Don't we have this at home?" Takumi wondered picking up the magazine with his interview in and also some photos of him during the concert and behind the scene. When he opened it he saw that inside the drawer was also safely stored a photo of them. It was a lovely photo of the time they lived together during university. Takumi remembered that time with a smile. Their friends were helping them move and one moment he felt Gii's hug warming him, the two lovers showed a big smile and their heads were close as if they were about to kiss, that moment was taken in a picture by their friend.
Takumi smiled both remembering that time and because he holds that same picture inside his violin case. He took it with him during those long months without his beloved and it gave him strength and hope and now he feels a warm feeling rushing inside himself thinking that Gii had done the same, and just like himself he's still treasuring that picture and keeping it close for those times they couldn't meet.
:-:-:-:-: :-:-:-:-:
Gii was in his office, he had to work overtime but he couldn't concentrate, it was cold and dark outside and his eyes were drawn to the window, the pen in his hand didn't move at all, his mind kept wandering off to his earlier conversation with his lovely half.
"It was so cold today.. my fingers were stiff and I couldn't play a note, my manager got mad and sent me home"
His sweetheart sounded so down, Gii couldn't help but having in his mind the image of his lover curled up on the sofa trembling with cold and feeling down as he couldn't play. How was he supposed to put his mind on work when his lover needed him?! Without even realizing it or really meaning it, his body moved on his own, he realized what he was doing only when he stepped out his office with his briefcase on him, dashing to his beloved.
When he reached home he saw the pitiful image he had in his mind becoming real in front of his eyes. Still he couldn't help but smile softly at the adorable sight of his Takumi.
"Okaeri" Takumi said after hearing his lover coming home
"Tadaima" Gii walked to him removing his jacket, when he reached the sofa, Gii sat down right behind his lover with just one leg hanging out the sofa, then put his own jacked around Takumi covering also his legs as his knees were held tight to his chest, covering his curled up body, then Gii wrapped his arms around him successfully shielding him from the cold, he kissed Takumi's neck which made him feel the last tremor that would go through his lover's body that night, then both settled in that comfortable position and none moved for a while. Takumi slowly relaxed more and more letting his body lay flat thus allowing Gii to embrace him better.
They played with their entwined hands under the warm shield of Gii's jacket. Gii warmed his hands, he warmed his heart. He didn't need to ask Takumi if he was alright, he could feel it. Takumi turned his head so he could watch his lover's mesmerizing eyes, resting his head on Gii's shoulder wishing for his kiss, a kiss full of love which Gii didn't let him wait for.
"You don't need to feel sad on your own, you're not alone. So just call me and I'll come to you"
"But you.." Takumi trailed off. Surely he couldn't do that, he had his work after all.
"It doesn't matter. I'll come to you" Gii already gave himself wholeheartedly to his loved one long ago.
Takumi felt so safe and content, he could pass all his time just like this with him, sitting on the sofa not doing anything in particular; only with Gii he could feel so much comfortable and at home. He never knew what feeling at home meant, he never felt home before. When he met Gii he understood.
The next day Takumi found a box wrapped up in a red ribbon waiting for him. Inside there were a new pair of warm gloves.
:-:-:-:-: :-:-:-:-:
Takumi performed his concert in a city not far away. It was late when he returned home. He had a shoulder bag and was holding his violin case while he opened the door with his free hand. When he stepped inside he could see the lights were on in the living room but there was a deep silence so he tried not to make a sound while putting his bags down and his violin on the nearest table and then walking to the sofa where he could see his beloved Gii sitting there, it looked like he was asleep, but Takumi saw he was awake even if on the verge of falling asleep. When Gii saw him he flashed his lover a gorgeous smile, Takumi sit down next to him, instead of greeting him he decided to preserve that sweet silence and kissed his cheek instead, cupping Gii's face with a loving hand. Gii leaned in the warm comfort that was his lover and they laid for a while just like that, with Gii resting his head on Takumi's chest and Takumi holding his lover tenderly in his arms. Gii tried desperately to stay awake to fully enjoy their intimate embrace.
"I wanted to see your concert" his sleepy voice mumbled
Takumi couldn't help but smile, he loves this man so much "I know" he said so very softly "I played for you only"
Takumi felt Gii's grip on his hand tighten and could feel his smile.
They remained a bit more in their position, but Takumi wanted his lover to get proper rest in their bed so reluctantly had to break the embrace in which, he could feel, Gii was getting asleep into. Takumi moved his upper body to glance at Gii's face, he could see that Gii stirred trying again to stay awake when he sensed the movement because he didn't want Takumi to go away, and he could also see that he would soon lose the battle with his beautiful eyes that wanted to close so his body could get its needed sleep. And Takumi was intentioned to let his precious lover have it.
Takumi kissed him fondly near his ear "Tired?" he whispered
Gii could only find the energy to moan in approval. Takumi found him so very cute and kissed him again. "Come on, let's get into bed" and helped his man on his feet before accompanying him to bed. Luckily Gii could walk on his own but still Takumi put his arm around his waist and supported him all the way there.
As soon as Gii's head hit the pillow he fell asleep, or so Takumi thought, he saw Gii was awake enough when he tried to walk away and Gii with his eyes still closed stopped him with his arms. A new wave of love hit the violinist as he forgot all that he was supposed to do and climbed in next to the innocent sleeping form of this wonderful man.
:-:-:-:-: :-:-:-:-:
Both their lives continued as they were before they reunited but there was a huge difference now, they didn't walk two paths anymore, they were together. Even during the time when both or just one of them had a thigh schedule and they couldn't see each other for the whole day, at night they'd go home and none would be alone, they have the warmth of their lover as a welcome back. They didn't need to dream that their loved one was near them, their hearts didn't make use of the yearning anymore, the most sweet dream they were living it, they only had to reach out their arms and hold their lover close. And in mornings they wouldn't be alone, 'I don't have to stretch out my arms in trying to find you because you're already in my embrace'.
That summer Takumi went to New York with Gii and was formally introduced to the Saki family as Gii's life partner.
Author's note: I didn't notice there was a lot of sofa involved in this last chapter! ^^
Because we ain't got clues about Gii's family and as I said I wanted to stay as close as possible to the manga I won't write about Takumi's encounter with them, but of course everyone loved Gii's life partner!
