[ the streets had been pretty bare after a little traffic on the way to anthony's apartment, making due with the time they had when stopping to glance down at the arms around his waist. double-checking never hurt, considering the circumstances. as per usual he has his moments of thought over the events that had taken place throughout the day. said thoughts eventually traveled into their adventure at the lounge, concluding that it was most likely the alcohol speaking for anthony and nothing more than that; it was an acceptable self-hypothesis.

without any chatter involved (he was half-expecting puff, woo to happen any second, after all) he makes his way down the last few streets in complete silence, already quite aware of their exact destination. ]

[ dislodges hiro briefly so that he can bend down & hug the boy properly, pressing his nose into hiro's hair. ]

You're the best little brother ever. Sorry I left for so long. . .

[ latches on again when they're in the correct position, shaking his head before pulling back slightly to type: ]

「 It's okay. 」 [ pauses, types more: ] 「 You look happy. A happy onii-chan is good. 」

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ squints at the words, taking a much longer time to read them, then nods enthusiastically. ]

Really happy. I had awesome Sprite!

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ nods back, as if emphasizing anthony's own nod. ]

「 And a boyfriend. Right? Not a strange or bad man because onii-chan is happy, not sad. 」

[bawkmajor.livejournal.com]

[ squints again. then the blush intensifies. ]

No, no, not a boyfriend! Boy and a friend, but he's my captain! Soccer. Good friend! I like him. . . ?

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

「 Not boyfriend? 」 [ tilts his head. types: ] 「 Then why were you kissing? 」

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

It wasn't kissing! Just. . . just manly face-rubbing!

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ stares at him a little, as if trying to see if he's telling the truth. turns to michael, holding up his phone. ]

「 Do you like onii-chan? 」

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ bends down slightly to read the words. ]

"Onii-chan"?

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ nods. ]

「 Big brother. 」

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ blinks. nods. ]

I have an attraction to him, yes.

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ whips head back around to anthony. ]

「 Boyfriend. 」 [ takes one of michael's hands and one of anthony's, making them hold onto one another. ] 「 Happily Ever After. 」

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ starts hiccuping at michael: ]

I'm. So-rry! I don't. It's not! We can only go out when I'm drunk.

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

I am certain that is not what one would like to hear had they been confessing to you. [ turns to hiro. ] Nonetheless, your assumptions are incorrect.

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

...

[ doesn't say anything, shoulders dropping ever-so slightly at his reply. ]

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ removes his hand from anthony's, straightening his clothes out. ]

It seems that you will be quite fine without my assistance any longer. [ turns towards the exit. ] I bid you goodnight.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ tugs hiro over for another hug, looser this time. frowns at the slight droop, which obviously means... ]

But you said you'd stay for cookie dough. Look, you're making my Pikachu sad.

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

My response to your invitation was merely out of concern for your health. If you had been hurt, you would be unable to come to practice next week. Nonetheless, I believe it will be more enjoyable to eat with your sibling instead.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ bit of a pause as he considers this. tries one more time: ]

But I think he likes you?

1/2

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

For reasons you are currently unaware of, yes.

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ sets anthony's two sets of keys on the table, nodding. ]

I will be taking my leave, then.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ waves. ]

Goodbye! I still like you!

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ watches the strange man michael leave, only turning back to anthony when the front door closes. tugs on him lightly with a hand to get his attention again, pushing his face into his chest while clinging on. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ hugs him closer, rubbing his nose back into the boy's hair. ]

Sorry. Didn't know you were back. Text me next time. . .?

[pokerobo.livejournal.com]

[ shakes his head, typing: ]

「 It's okay. Because you looked happy. 」
