[ jesus christ - ]

i didn't mean that. i mean what I'm doing is important, yeah. and i won't slack off.
but i don't want to rush home either.

...does that make sense?

1/2

[secrowtary]

It doesn't.

[secrowtary]

But...I think I understand.

[ He feels the same way, actually. ]

[actus]

♥
do you, ah....

[secrowtary]

A little, yes. I...

[ He can't possibly tell him that he's supposed to go back and assassinate someone. ]

I wonder how is it to slack off...just a bit.

[actus]

[ that could be awkward... ]

well, do you want to slack off with me?
tonight and in general.

[secrowtary]

I can't believe I've really said that.

[ Could it be a change of heart... ]









Yes.

[actus]

you're cute.

... do you want to come over, then?
or just stay over.
indefinitely.

[secrowtary]

Akira...!!!

[actus]

... so is that a no?

[secrowtary]

[ Why does this boy want him dead!! Rude. ]

I'll keep your offer in mind.

[actus]

:)
that's fair.
goodnight then, hibiki.

[ he's stupidly smitten right now. it's a problem. ]

[secrowtary]

Good night, Akira.

30 minutes later

[secrowtary]

I...are you already asleep?

approximately a minute later

[actus]

nope. not yet. :)

[secrowtary]

Do you think I could come over just for tonight?

[actus]

ah. of course.
door's unlocked.
i'm already in a nest of blankets.

[secrowtary]

What do you mean by door's unlocked? You have to lock your door, it's common sense.

[ Is this something he should be getting worked up about?? ]

Besides...I don't need door to get inside.

[ Scandalous ]

[actus]

[ oh my god why is he dating this. ]

oh yeah?
i forgot for a second how talented my boyfriend was.
still leaving it unlocked though. too lazy.

[secrowtary]

[ You tell me. ]

...
I'm being reminded every single day how reckless my boyfriend is.

[ He runs over there even faster than usual, knowing that the door is unlocked and so on. The thing is...instead of entering his bedroom after coming in, he just stands behind the bedroom door. ]

M-Maybe I should take it off.

[ HIBIKI??? He can probably hear you...what are you even talking about. ]

[actus]

[ on my god. akira's face is buried against a very soft pillow and he's almost fallen into a light slumber by the time he hears hibiki's voice. what in the world -

he lifts his head up from the pillow, blinking and staring into the darkness of the room. ]

... Hibiki?

[ cue a tiny yawn and rubbing at his eyes. ]

[secrowtary]

Ah. Are you awake?

[ Of course he is. ]

Do you think you could keep your eyes shut until I'm under the blankets?

[ This is so embarrassing. ]

[actus]

[ .... well okay. his mind naturally starts running through endless possibilities. ]

Sure.

[ he's too tired to think of a witty comeback. instead he lets his head drop back down, mindful to shift towards the right side of the bed so hibiki actually has room.

operation shutting eyes commencing. ]

[secrowtary]

[ Naturally...well, he can't be blamed. Hibiki didn't exactly help his own case.

That said, he walks across the room and lies beside Akira wearing this. Once he wraps himself in one of the blankets, he nudges the other boy. ]

You can open them.

it's 4:30 in the morning and i'm howling in laughter??

[actus]

[ ...... what.


what.
why?
how??

akira blinks a few times, just to confirm that his eyes aren't playing tricks on him. no, that is indeed what he thinks it is. ]

... You run out of clean uniforms? [ there's a twitch of a smile though. this is so ridiculous. ]
