Summary
     Nakatsu's doing what with who? The blond might have gotten in over
     his head with this person. Strong Yaoi Warning.
Notes
     Disclaimer: Nothing of Hana Kimi’s is mine. Not now, not ever. It’s
     probably better that way.
     A/N: Yeah, this pairing is gonna make it seem like I’m on crack.
     Because wtf!? I dunno either. I came up with this a while ago when I
     was trying to find alternate pairings for Umeda. That of course led
     to my Shizuki and Umeda pairing. Somehow, though, this idea spawned
     and I ended up writing a lot of smut with it. For some strange
     reason, it works. So here it is. Give it a chance. I promise it will
     at least be entertaining. LOL! I know this chapter isn’t incredibly
     long, but I wanted to start out slow and give you guys a little taste
     of the pairing to get some feedback. Tell me what you guys think. :D
***** Chapter 1 *****
When Kagurazaka would show up to bug Sano while Mizuki was around it didn’t
seem that weird. He hung around long enough to bait and bother Sano until
Mizuki blew up. It became sort of a regular thing. Sure, Nakatsu thought the
guy was a douche, but he didn’t bother the blond as much then. Maybe he
irritated the fuck out of Nakatsu now, because Mizuki was gone. She wasn’t
around so this jackass had to find someone else to rile up. Really, he
shouldn’t let himself fall into this stupid trap every time the high jumper
showed up. He just couldn’t make himself stop. It had gotten to the point of
ridiculous.
“Kami-sama! Why is it you show up where ever we are!? Go away!” Nakatsu
snapped. He’d really had enough of this same old song and dance. If he didn’t
know any better he’d think the high jumper had a thing for Sano. The guy was
showing up at his friend’s practice at least once or twice a week now. “Just
because you lost your championship title to Sano doesn’t mean you have to come
around to harass him all the fucking time!”
“I’ll go where ever the hell I want, blondie! What are you gonna do about it?”
Kagurazaka shot back angrily. “This isn’t about the championship!”
“I’ll kick your ass that’s what!” the soccer player threatened. His brain
completed disregarded the one tiny important bit of information the high jumper
had let slip.
Sano sighed in agitation. “Leave it be, Nakatsu.”
Nakatsu dropped his guard irritably. “Fine. It’d be a waste of energy anyways.”
“So you’re Sano’s bitch now? Is he holding your leash now that Mizuki is gone?”
the high jumper smirked.
“Shut the hell up. Ain’t nobody holds my leash, but me,” Nakatsu growled,
hackles rising again.
Sano shook his head and stalked off. He wasn’t about to stick around to watch
them bark at each other like dogs. They’d been doing it for a long time now.
Nothing ever came to blows. In fact, he was beginning to wonder if there wasn’t
something else to it. Especially since Kagurazaka instigated all the fights.
Nakatsu probably hadn’t even picked up on that fact. Neither of them noticed
him leaving anyways.
“Yeah, well you sure like to trail after people like a lost dog. What’s the
matter? Don’t know how to take care of yourself?” Kagurazaka taunted.
Nakatsu flushed. “It’s called having friends. Apparently, you don’t know what
that is since you’re such an asshole.”
“They follow me. Not the other way around,” the high jumper smirked.
“Oh, that’s right. ‘Cause you’re to good for anything less.” the blond snapped
back.
“At least I don’t look pathetic.”
Nakatsu didn’t know why that last statement struck such a bad nerve. But
suddenly he was moving before he realized it. He grabbed the high jumper by the
front of his shirt and slammed his back into the chain link fence. The loud
crash and the wince of pain on Kagurazaka’s face were incredibly satisfying to
the blond. He saw the high jumper’s fist start to swing towards him. He began
to duck out of the way, but the other boy was faster. Nakatsu jerked in
surprise when instead of being punched, he was grabbed by the back of the neck.
Before he could move, Kagurazaka yanked his head forwards. He went absolutely
rigid when the other boy’s mouth crashed against his.
The kiss was fierce and bruising. None the less, excitement coursed through
Nakatsu, frightening him in its intensity. He started to try to get away. The
high jumper followed his move easily and bit down on his bottom lip. He yelped
in pain and shock. The sound was muffled quickly as Kagurazaka’s tongue darted
into his mouth to dominate him. For a second, he was to overwhelmed to do
anything. His brain was overloading from the sudden twist that had occurred.
Then he came to his senses.
He yanked his head away and shoved the other boy back roughly. Kagurazaka’s
back crashed against the fence once more. Nakatsu stumbled back a step to stare
at the high jumper. The two regarded each other silently, both panting from
that forceful kiss and the adrenaline coursing through them.
“What the hell was that!?” the blond finally burst out.
“I don’t know,” Kagurazaka snapped. “I just did it.”
“That’s not an excuse!” Nakatsu barked, confusion flooding through him.
“Who said it was an excuse? I just did it, ok!” the high jumper repeated.
The two glared at each other for a moment longer. Then Nakatsu turned and
stalked away. He looked like he wasn’t going to get a proper answer.
“You’re gonna run away?” the high jumper yelled at his back.
“I ain’t sticking around for a repeat of whatever that was!” He shouted over
his shoulder.
He didn’t look back once as he stormed his way back to the dorms.
////////////////////
Kayashima’s hands came up as soon as Nakatsu walked in to their shared room.
The roiling aura coming off the soccer player was so bright and intense it
surprised the other boy. Something had upset his friend very much. He’d only
seen Nakatsu that wound up a few times. Usually it was because of a fight with
one of his close friends.
“What’s wrong? Your aura is very disturbed,” Kayashima remarked.
Nakatsu’s scowl deepened as he dropped his athletic bag on the floor with a
loud thud. “Nothing!”
The aura reader didn’t buy that. “Something happened.”
“I don’t want to talk about it,” the soccer player snapped irritably.
The aura reader waited patiently in silence. Nakatsu was terrible about holding
back his feelings. He wouldn’t be able to hold it in for long. He wasn’t
disappointed.
“God damn Kagurazaka!” the blond burst out, making Kayashima’s eyebrows rise in
surprise.
The aura reader wanted to ask what the high jumper had to do with anything, but
he wisely remained quiet. Nakatsu continued without any prompting or pushing.
“I don’t get him at all! He always comes to watch Sano jump and then hangs
around just to irritate the crap outta us afterwards! Granted Sano leaves most
of the time and I end up being the one pissed off with the arrogant asshole.
Why the hell would he stick around after Sano leaves!? I swear he does it just
to harass me! What the hell!?” the blond ranted.
“Harass?” Kayashima inquired, despite his intentions to stay quiet.
Nakatsu plowed on without seeming to notice his friend had said anything. “
That bastard kissed me! He insults me until I’m so pissed I want to strangle
him and then he kisses me!”
The aura reader stared at his friend in shock. “Why?”
“That’s exactly what I want to know! He had no reason for it!” the blond
exclaimed wildly.
Kayashima had always wondered about the high jumper. When ever Kagurazaka
showed up at Osaka, while Kayashima was around, his aura was always in turmoil.
It was so mixed up it was nearly impossible to read. Yet, the one color the
aura reader had always been able to pick out more so than the others was
red–the color of lust. The aura reader had known Kagurazaka had some kind of
sexual interest in someone at Osaka. He wouldn’t have been surprised if it had
been Sano or Mizuki. But Nakatsu? That was a real shock. The two clashed so
badly personality wise that it seemed almost impossible. It really made no
sense.
“It was with tongue too!” his friend blurted angrily.
The aura reader had a feeling this was the beginning of a rough time for
Nakatsu. He knew that the blond had accepted he was gay, but up until now it
had only been words. Nakatsu had never actually had a true gay experience until
now. He seemed to be handling it fairly well. He seemed more upset about who
the person was that had kissed him then the actual act of being kissed. That in
part confirmed that at least Nakatsu had started to accept his sexuality. But
was he ready to be fully gay?
“What will you do now?” Kayashima asked curiously.
This stopped the blond’s tirade up short. He blinked in bafflement. Clearly,
the blond hadn’t given it much thought. “I dunno,” he admitted, then went
completely silent.
/////////////////////
As several days went by Nakatsu realized he did want a repeat. He didn’t come
to that conclusion right away. He certainly didn’t take to it easily. But after
mulling it over he couldn’t deny the truth of what he was trying to ignore. And
it was hard to ignore something that seemed to trouble his thoughts every
waking hour as well as some of his sleeping ones. He didn’t know why the whole
event effected him so strongly at first. For the first two days all he did was
try to wipe the kiss from his memory. It refused to be forgotten though. He
found himself dwelling on that kiss. The ferocity of it, the excitement he’d
experienced, the heat of Kagurazaka’s tongue in his mouth all seemed to replay
over and over in his mind.
Then he began to wonder why the high jumper had done it. Adrenaline? Anger?
Trying to provoke a reaction? Or...Kagurazaka was attracted to him? That idea
completely threw him off. He wouldn’t have suspected the high jumper was even
remotely gay until the other day. The possibility of Kagurazaka somehow liking
him was almost to hard to comprehend. The other boy had to have heard that
Nakatsu was gay. The entire fucking school knew it. So had the high jumper
kissed him, because Kagurazaka had known that? Or would he have done it anyways
without that knowledge?
What irked Nakatsu the most was realizing he did want a repeat. He had liked
the intensity of the kiss. The force behind it had made the hairs on the back
of his neck stand on end. The shock and pain of being bitten had turned him on
much to his shame. And if he was forced to admit it, the high jumper was a
pretty damn good kisser. It was absolutely crazy to feel all this for that
jackass of all people. It irritated the shit out of Nakatsu. Somehow though he
needed to kiss that bastard again just to be sure what he’d felt. If it had
been a fluke then he’d write the whole thing off as a crazy learning
experience. If it was something else…well, he wasn’t really sure what he’d do
about it after that. He was pretty sure he could figure that part out later.
***** Chapter 2 *****
Nakatsu only had to wait a week before Kagurazaka showed up at the Osaka track
again. Nakatsu hadn’t noticed the high jumper at first, because he was involved
in soccer practice. When he was out on the field playing nothing else existed
to him, but that game. It became the center of his world. He loved every minute
of being out on the field, playing his heart out even if it was just practice.
When practice ended he wandered over to where Sano was cooling down to wait for
his friend so they could walk back to the dorms together. Sano waved and
gestured for him to wait a minute. Nakatsu nodded before looking around. He saw
Sekime walking into the locker room after his practice. He had no idea how that
guy could stand to run like that for so long. Sure, Nakatsu ran a lot during
soccer, but at least there was a point to it. Who the hell ran, because they
thought it was fun?
He shrugged to himself before continuing to look at who else was there. That
was when he noticed Kagurazaka sitting in the first row of the bleachers
watching Sano. Nakatsu rolled his eyes with a sigh. What an asshole. Why the
fuck did that arrogant bastard kiss him the other day?
Sano walked over as he slung a towel around his neck. He glanced over at what
the blond was glaring at and sighed. He wasn’t an idiot. He’d already figured
out something was going on with Kagurazaka. Probably, before Nakatsu had even
noticed.
“I can’t believe that bastard is back,” Nakatsu complained when he noticed Sano
standing next to him. “Is he really that interested in watching you jump? I
mean, sure you guys are rivals, but that’s a bit obsessive.”
Sano rolled his eyes. “He’s not watching me jump. At least, not all the time.”
“What? Of course he is. Why else would he be here?” Nakatsu’s head whipped
around to stare at Sano in baffled surprise.
“I dunno. But every time I look over he’s not looking anywhere near me. He’s
usually looking at the soccer field,” Sano gave him a pointed look.
Nakatsu scrunched his nose in confusion before glancing back over at
Kagurazaka. The high jumper was off the bleachers now and crossing the track as
he headed their way. “What?” He watched the spiky haired teen draw closer.
Kagurazaka looked as casual and cool as ever with his hands stuffed in his
pockets and the normal scowl affixed to his face. Nakatsu thought if he smiled
he might not look like such a potential serial killer.
“Why don’t you ask him how many goals you kicked during soccer practice?” Sano
gave his friend a bland look.
Nakatsu blinked in shocked silence. He was about to ask why Kagurazaka would
know that when the bastard stopped in front of him. Sano muttered something
about needing to take a shower before walking off.
“What’s up, blondie?” Kagurazaka smirked at him same as always. It was like
nothing had happened before between them.
Nakatsu glanced at Sano to see his friend had already gotten far enough to be
out of earshot. Apparently whatever fight Sano thought was gonna happen he
didn’t feel like sticking around for again. Nakatsu didn’t get what Sano had
meant about asking Kagurazaka about the soccer goals. “Why are you always here
to watch Sano jump? It’s kinda wierd, you know.”
“I’m not here for that, dumbass,” the high jumper replied condescendingly.
“Then what the hell do you want?” Nakatsu bristled.
Kagurazaka shifted his feet before shoving his hands in his pockets. “I’m here
to bother you, blondie.”
“Well, get lost. You piss me off,” the blond answered briskly. He knew had
decided to somehow try to kiss this annoying bastard again, but now that
Kagurazaka was standing in front of him all he wanted to do was punch him. This
guy was so damned irritating. That one kiss had to be a fucking fluke.
The high jumper’s smirk widened. “Do you really want me to go?”
Nakatsu glared. “What else would I want?” He could play this game too.
“I’m sure you could think of something. Maybe a repeat of what happened last
time,” Kagurazaka suggested with a quirk of his eyebrow.
The blond flushed. He hadn’t expected the guy to be so direct about it. That
threw him off just a little. How the hell did that guy know he’d been thinking
about that? “Why the hell would I want that from you?”
Kagurazaka shrugged his shoulders. “That’s on you to figure out.”
“Look, just go away. You’re irritating me,” Nakatsu growled. This was in part
true. The high jumper’s ego seriously grated on his nerves. The other part was
the mere mention of the kiss had made his heart start racing. Apparently, the
high jumper had been thinking about that kiss a lot too.
“Sure thing,” the high jumper replied nonchalantly. He smiled in an
infuriatingly patronizing manner before he turned away.
Nakatsu clenched his fists. Anger bolted through him. He reached out swiftly
and grabbed the other boy’s arm. He had no idea why he did. He should just let
the bastard walk away. But he couldn’t. Somehow Kagurazaka turning his back on
him like he was no more than a silly child pissed him off even more. Instead,
he yanked Kagurazaka back around before jerking him forward. He had no
explanation for what he did next. Sure, he’d been semi-planning on kissing the
guy again, but not exactly like this. He caught the high jumper’s lips up into
a bruising kiss. His heart hammered in his chest as excitement flooded through
him. To his surprise, Kagurazaka sank into the kiss and returned it roughly
with a muffled moan. The two struggled for dominance of the kiss. It was
Nakatsu who won this time. He shoved his tongue into the high jumper’s mouth,
taking over the kiss once more. He was a little surprised to find Kagurazaka
tasted pretty good. Like something tangy and heady. Something he wanted more
of. The two stayed locked together in the silent war of mouths until the need
for air forced them apart. They broke apart with a harsh gasp.
“Guess you did want a repeat,” Kagurazaka grinned, after he caught his breath.
“Shut up,” Nakatsu said without any real heat. “Are you messing with me?”
“Partially.”
The blond frowned irritably. “What’s the rest?”
“Does it matter?” the high jumper brushed off the question.
“You afraid to give me an answer?”
Kagurazaka looked away with a scowl. “Forget it,” he growled, before he started
walking away.
“Now who’s running?” he barked at the high jumper’s back.
“Shut the fuck up!”
“How many goals did I kick during practice!?” The blond yelled at the high
jumper’s back.
Kagurazaka’s shoulders tensed and his step faltered for a moment. “Ten!”
Nakatsu snorted under his breath. What an asshole. He watched the tense set of
the high jumper’s shoulders and back as he disappeared out of sight. He was
annoyed to find that the second kiss hadn’t really answered any of the
questions he had. All it did was confuse him more. He strolled back to the
dorms, thinking about what had just happened from every angle. Then he stopped
in his tracks when he realized what Sano had been implying. God, he was such a
dense moron!
“Sano thinks he’s coming to watch me,” he muttered out loud. Just hearing it
freaked him the fuck out. He clapped his hand over his mouth as he thought
about it. Kagurazaka knew exactly how many goals he’d kicked. He’d gotten mad
when Nakatsu had pressed him for more answers. Was the high jumper really
interested in him? What the hell? He’d never given any indication before now.
Yet, Kagurazaka had initiated the first kiss. He’d definitely enjoyed the
second one as much as Nakatsu did. So the high jumper had to like him, at least
somewhat.
“Fuck,” he muttered, as he started walking again. What exactly did all this
mean for him? What was he supposed to do about this? He’d never really been
involved with a guy. Hell, this was the most he’d ever done remotely sexual
with a guy. He’d never even considered Kagurazaka in that manner before. Sure,
he’d thought the guy was good looking once or twice when he wasn’t scowling.
That was it though. He’d never had any kind of interest until now. These two
kisses though had completely opened his eyes. Apparently, he was at least
somewhat attracted to Kagurazaka. He didn’t think he’d react like that to just
any guy. But damn, why him of all guys? He would have never guessed before that
first kiss that the high jumper was gay. Still, none of this was helping him
figure out what he was supposed to do about this mess. God, this was gonna take
some serious thinking about?
He scratched his head and sighed. He could feel himself already beginning to
develop a headache over this one.
////////////////
The whole weird situation just seemed to keep going. Nakatsu couldn’t seem to
quite grasp what was going on with the high jumper. Nakatsu had tried to figure
out what was going on, but the only conclusion that he could draw was that the
high jumper liked him. It just seemed insane and unbelievable. Yet, Kagurzaka
would show up to watch the blond practice soccer then he’d saunter over to talk
for a few minutes. Somehow or other, they always ended up kissing. The kisses
got longer, more intense, and soon turned into all out make out sessions with
some groping involved. There was always some kind of struggle for dominance. It
was fairly even with who won that competition. It all depended on the day. Most
of the time, they’d do this right out in the open. There were a few times they
moved over to the overhang beneath the bleachers or the doorway of the locker
room. It never really crossed Nakatsu’s mind to be worried about getting
caught.
They never talked about why they were doing this though. Nakatsu would ask
Kagurazaka sometimes, but he never got an answer. The blond never could seem to
resist the temptation to kiss the high jumper. The guy made him so angry. The
anger somehow ended being turned into lust and then completely forgotten in the
end. Nakatsu didn’t even know if he liked him. He sure as hell was attracted to
him though. The second Kagurazaka touched or kissed him all objections or
protests were gone. He just got totally lost in the moment and the feel of the
other boy. In a weird way it was sort of like he was experimenting with this
chance to really find out if he was gay. All his reactions were pointing to a
big YES. He didn’t mind. He’d already admitted it to pretty much the entire
school (though at the time the admission had been for Mizuki). It was just sort
of amazing to finally know what it was like to kiss and touch another guy and
realize that he truly did enjoy it. Still, it was frustrating not to really
know what the hell was going on or why they kept doing this.
Today, though, he was determined to get Kagurazaka to tell him why he kept
showing up to do this. He wasn’t gonna let this keep going until he knew. If
this was just some sort of fucked up game he wasn’t going to be a part of it
anymore. If it was something else, something deeper…well he’d figure that out
if a came up. He was semi-convinced already that Kagurazaka was just messing
with him though. Maybe it was some ultimate way to humiliate him and get at
Sano. He had no idea how that’d work really, but that was all he could think
of. Well, there was also the chance that maybe Kagurazaka was just
experimenting too. That didn’t seem incredibly likely either, because he seemed
to know exactly what he was doing.
So he stood silently as Kagurazaka walked up to him. This was their fifth time
meeting like this.
“What are you glaring about, blondie?” the high jumper asked, shoving his hands
in his pockets. Nakatsu had figured out that Kagurazaka did this when he was
angry, nervous, or unsure.
“I’m done with this unless you tell me why you keep coming here?” Nakatsu said
bluntly.
Kagurazaka sighed irritably. “Why is it so necessary to know? Can’t you just go
with it?”
“Not if it means you’re just messing with me or using me. I mean do you even
like me? Do you even know anything about me?” The blond asked.
“You want me to spell it out for you, doofus?” the high jumper growled in
annoyance.
“If it means you’ll give me a straight answer.” Nakatsu replied snidely.
“C’mon.” Kagurazaka turned towards the locker room.
“What?”
Kagurazaka grabbed his arm and dragged him underneath the overhang of the
stadium, near the locker room door. It was Nakatsu, this time, whose back was
thrown against something. He was to stunned to make much of a struggle.
Somehow, the high jumper always seemed to strip him of his senses and proper
thinking. He never would have let anyone push him around like this. Why
couldn’t he fight Kagurazaka? What made him let the other boy push him so far?
Any other thoughts were completely abandoned when the high jumper’s hands
dropped to the waist line of his shorts.
The high jumper leaned in and kissed him hard. Nakatsu’s hands curled around
fistfuls of the other boy’s shirt. He responded to the kiss eagerly. He really
didn’t want to end this—whatever this fucked up situation was. It felt so damn
good. Did he really care what Kagurazaka meant by all this? He wanted to just
give in and accept whatever happened between them no matter what the reasons.
He moaned helplessly when Kagurazaka’s tongue met his in an intimate dance the
blond had truly begun to enjoy.
Nakatsu’s heart felt like it almost jumped out of his chest as Kagurazaka’s
hand cupped his half hard cock. In an instant, his cock was standing at full
attention. He wasn’t sure whether to be ashamed of himself or not. He sucked in
a sharp breath as the high jumper’s other hand slid under his shirt to trace
over his abs and pecs. Teasing fingers found his left nipple and tweaked it.
His surprised moan was swallowed up in Kagurazaka’s suddenly demanding mouth.
Nakatsu was lost. He’d never been touched like this. It was all entirely new.
He had no idea how to react. Somehow his body seemed to know by itself. That
was more than a little disconcerting as well.
His stomach muscles jumped as Kagurazaka’s hand stroked over his clothed cock
with just enough pressure to make his brain go hazy with pleasure. He decided
for the moment none of it was worth worrying over. He’d just flow with it for
now. He let his instincts take over. His hand clasped the back of the high
jumper’s neck as he answered the other boy’s kiss and deepened it. Somehow, his
other hand found it’s way to Kagurazaka’s ass before massaging over it
experimentally. He felt a flash of satisfaction at the answering moan he
received.
Kagurazaka smirked into the blond’s mouth as he slipped his hand into Nakatsu’s
shorts. This was all going much better than he thought it would. The blond was
clearly inexperienced, but he was incredibly sensitive. That was perfect to
him. He wrapped his hand around Nakatsu’s hard length and grinned as the blond
gasped into his mouth. He slid his hand up to the head of the blond’s cock. His
eyebrows shot up at how much pre-cum was already leaking forth. Oh, this was
going to be fun. He teased over the slit then stroked down the length roughly.
Nakatsu ripped his mouth away from Kagurazaka’s. There was no way for him to
concentrate on anything, but the hand on his dick. The blond’s hips thrust
helplessly into the high jumper’s hand as Nakatsu’s head fell back against the
wall.
Kagurazaka took the moment of distraction to shove Nakatsu’s shorts and
underwear down to his knees. He stroked over the blond’s cock a few more times.
He waited until Nakatsu was to lost in the sensations racing through his body
to notice what he was about to do. He dropped to his knees smoothly so that he
was just above eye level to the blond’s cock. He admired the other boy’s hard,
dripping length for a moment before glancing up. Nakatsu was looking down at
him in disbelief. He opened his mouth and swiped his tongue across the head of
Nakatsu’s cock. The blond cussed sharply as his fist slammed back against the
wall before his palm flattened out to steady himself.
The high jumper needed no further encouragement. He leaned forward to take in
as much of the blond’s length as he could. Nakatsu thought he was going to jump
out of his skin as that hot, wet mouth closed around his cock. A hitching whine
was ripped out of his throat that sounded embarrassingly like a sob. He’d never
felt someone’s mouth on his dick before. Not even his best imaginings could he
have known it would feel like this. His hands buried themselves in Kagurazaka’s
hair as the high jumper began to suck him off in long, smooth motions. Nakatsu
was sure he was going to lose his mind from the amount of pleasure rocketing
through his body. He barely noticed Kagurazaka’s hands holding his hips in
place as he tried desperately to thrust into that mouth. Already his orgasm was
building swiftly in the base of his cock. His legs quivered as it spiraled in
closer and closer with each skilled stroke of that talented tongue. God, he
couldn’t take it. It was to much. His fingers dug into the high jumper’s scalp
as he suddenly came hard with a desperate cry. It felt like his guts were being
ripped out as Kagurazaka continued to suck; drinking down every drop of his
cum.
He sagged against the wall as the high jumper pulled off of his cock to sit
back on his heels. Nakatsu panted as his heart tried to settle back into it’s
regular tempo. That was the most intense orgasm he’d ever had. His whole body
was still shaking in its wake. He watched Kagurazaka get to his feet then lean
into kiss him. He accepted the kiss, a little taken aback by the gentleness of
it. He felt his shorts and underwear slid back up into place before his shirt
was straightened out once more.
“Why’d you do that?” He heard himself ask before his brain realized he was
speaking.
The high jumper smirked. “Because I wanted to. ”
Nakatsu shook his head. “I don’t get you.”
“Good.”
“You never ask for anything in return,” the blond remarked.
Kagurazaka’s smirk grew. “I enjoy tormenting you more. Besides anyone can tell
you’re about as virginal as they come.”
Nakatsu flushed angrily. “I suppose you’ve had tons of practice.”
“I’ve had enough to know what I’m doing,” the high jumper replied easily. He
didn’t seem at all embarrassed to admit such a thing.
“So I guess that means you do like me?” Nakatsu smirked, returning back to the
original argument.
They both stood there awkwardly for a long moment without saying anything.
“So you gonna keep doing this?” Kagurazaka asked casually. He completely
ignored the previously asked question.
“Yeah, whatever ‘this’ is,” the blond replied with a shrug. What could it hurt?
So he hadn’t really gotten an answer from the high jumper. Maybe he’d just
chalk all this up as a learning experience.
“I’m not looking for anything but physical gratification. No emotional crap,”
the high jumper said frankly.
Nakatsu blinked in surprise. “So basically no relationship stuff. Just
whatever,” he waved his hand between them, “this is.”
“Yeah, is that ok?”
The blond thought about it for a minute. He had no real attachment to
Kagurazaka. It was fun and very pleasurable to be able to experiment like this
with another guy. He was a healthy teenage boy with all the hormones that went
with that. What if things changed though? What if he did start to like this
arrogant bastard? Would it be better to just stop all this now before it had
the chance to get out of hand? Maybe it would be better to just let things
happen naturally. Just go with the flow, so to speak. He shrugged.
“Why the hell not?” He grinned. “I think we should be a little more discreet
about this though.”
“Is the locker room still open?”
“Yeah, it’s open until the coaches leave for the evening.”
“How long are they here til?”
“7ish?”
“Students are gone by 6, right?”
Nakatsu glanced at the door to the locker room that was only a few feet away
from them. “Usually. So you wanna meet in there?”
“Yeah, it’s got a door we can lock at least,” Kagurazaka remarked.
“Alright.”
Neither one really knew what to do or say after that. They stood there for
another awkward moment.
“I’ll see yah later then,” the high jumper finally said, stepping away from
Nakatsu.
“Ok. Later.”
Nakatsu wasn’t really sure agreeing to keep doing this stuff with Kagurazaka
was the wisest decision. What could it hurt though—really?
***** Chapter 3 *****
Nakatsu sat outside of Doctor Umeda’s clinic waiting for his turn to have his
career counseling session. As a senior, he had been faced with the sudden
realization that he needed to seriously start thinking about his future. He
definitely wanted to be a professional soccer player, but he wasn’t really sure
how to reach that goal past high school. He hadn’t really taken the time to
consider it until lately. Before that it had been all about trying to get his
mom to accept his dream of being a soccer player. He’d sort of reached that
goal. After that he’d just been enjoying the game. Umeda had been the one to
bring the enormity of what he was shooting for to his attention. It had been a
very nerve wrecking thing to worry about the last few weeks. It was probably
part of the reason he’d been acting a little more erratic lately. He didn’t
think any of the stuff with Kagurazaka would have gone anywhere if he hadn’t
been trying to find some way to escape his worries for a little while. The
excuse of experimenting had just been another way to justify what the two of
them had been doing. Really though, he was just trying to forget the rising
tide of the future that was looming closer.
He scowled in annoyance realizing his thoughts had somehow come back to
Kagurazaka. The damn high jumper was always on his mind lately. He couldn’t
seem to stop thinking about him for more than five minutes. He kept trying to
figure out what he was doing with that guy. Or why that bastard had started all
this mess.
“Nakatsu?”
The blond looked up to see Doctor Umeda standing in the doorway waiting for
him. He got up and walked into the clinic. The doctor closed the door behind
him before making his way over to the coffee pot. He filled up two cups with
coffee as Nakatsu sat down in the chair by Umeda’s desk. The blond had always
thought Umeda was a loud mouth adult who barely cared enough to do his job, but
the last year his opinion had changed. Once he found out that Umeda had been
protecting Mizuki since she first got to Osaka he’d found new respect for the
doctor. Now, since all this career mess had come up he’d been doing his best to
help Nakatsu. The blond couldn’t help but be appreciative for that.
Umeda set a cup of coffee in front of Nakatsu before sitting down in his chair
too. “You look like someone kicked your puppy.”
“I’ve been stressed out from all this crap.”
“And that’s all?” Umeda quirked an eyebrow at him.
Nakatsu scowled. How’d this guy always know when you were trying to hide
something from him? “That’s it.” He picked up his cup of coffee and took a
gulp.
“Uh huh.” Umeda let it slide for the moment. He picked up a folder sitting on
the desk and handed it to the blond. “I’ve been doing some research for you
since we talked last. I’ve been looking up top colleges who give the best
athletic scholarships. I’ve also found ones that will let you get on their
soccer team even in freshmen year if you try out and make it. I’ve found some
minor academic scholarships for you too. You’re grade are good enough for you
to apply for the ones I found. Overall, if you play you’re cards right you
could have a full ride to any of those colleges I’ve found.”
Nakatsu’s eyebrows shot up as he opened the folder and flipped through some of
the pages. Some of these schools were highly prestigious. It was incredible to
think he’d even be considered to some of these. “Are you sure I could make it
into these colleges?”
“Like I said, you’d have to play you’re cards right.” Umeda sat back in his
chair.
The blond felt a huge wave of relief wash over him. The last few minutes he’d
been freaking out about how he was supposed to find a college that would give
him what he wanted. Umeda had done all the work for him. He was completely
amazed the doctor would do that for him. “Why’d you go to all this trouble for
me?”
“Because I believe in your dream. You have the potential and talent to make it
if you want to. I wanted to give you the chance to do it,” Umeda replied
honestly. Mostly, it had been because he knew what a good friend this kid had
been to Mizuki. The girl had become like another little sister to him. Through
her, Umeda had learned all about Nakatsu’s soccer dream. He’d also realized the
blond might be more than just a loud mouth. Not only that, Umeda felt good when
he helped the students get one step closer to a dream or a goal. He was a soft
hearted sucker, but they didn’t need to know that.
“Thanks a lot. I’ve been worrying about this since our first meeting,” Nakatsu
admitted.
The doctor didn’t look surprised. “You’re welcome. I’m glad to help.”
“What’s the best one for me to apply to, in your opinion?” The blond asked
seriously after a moment. He would have never considered asking this man
something like this before, but now he wanted to know.
Umeda looked a bit taken aback by the question. “Well, I’d say apply to at
least three of those colleges. The best one for you thought, I think, would be?
University. They are very well respected for turning out some of the best
athletes in Japan. I think you’ve got a very good chance of being accepted by
them.”
“Alright.”
“Look through those for a few days. We have another meeting in two weeks.
Decide which colleges you want to apply for. When we meet again I’ll help you
start preparing the applications and getting more information about testing for
their entrance exams. This might be a lot of work, Nakatsu. Are you prepared
for that?” Umeda studied the blond seriously.
The soccer player nodded. “I want do this. I’ll study as hard as I can to pass
those tests.”
“Ok then.” Umeda slapped his hand down on the top of his desk.
Nakatsu began to gather up his things so he could leave.
“Is there anything else going on?”
Umeda’s question froze the blond in place. He tried to cover up the sudden
panicked, guilty feeling that arouse when the doctor asked that question. He
should have known Umeda wouldn’t let him leave until he found out what else was
going on. “No, seriously. I’m fine.”
“You know I don’t believe that for a second. Tell me,” Umeda gave him a bland
look.
“You’re gay, aren’t you?” Nakatsu blurted the question.
The doctor blinked in surprise. “Yes, I am.”
“How long have you known that?”
“Since high school.”
Nakatsu looked down and fiddled with the folder in his hands. “You remember me
declaring my love to Mizuki before I realized she was a girl, right?”
“Of course.”
“Well, I…I realized I might not like girls the way other guys do when I finally
found out about her real gender. Instead of being relieved to find out she was
a girl I was upset,” Nakatsu confessed. “I guess maybe I had started to accept
that I might be different.”
“You mean gay.” Umeda chuckled.
“Yeah.”
“What’s this got to do with what’s bothering you?” the doctor pressed.
The blond took another gulp of coffee. He decided to just come right out and
say it. “I’ve been messing around with this guy lately.”
Umeda’s eyebrows shot up in shock. “Messing? You mean sexually?”
“Uh, yeah.”
“With who? If you don’t mind me asking. I won’t say anything,” Umeda said. He
couldn’t help but sit forward a little in curiosity. This was definitely not
what he’d been expecting to hear. He’d figured Nakatsu had gotten through his
brief freak out about maybe being gay. He’d figured the kid had realized it had
just been one big misunderstanding. It was interesting to find out Nakatsu had
actually really come to like guys in that way.
“Kagurazaka,” the blond sank lower in his chair. He risked a glance over at the
doctor to see him staring in utter disbelief.
“The high jumper?”
“Uh huh.”
Umeda sat back in stunned fascination. “Holy shit! I would have never guessed
that kid swung that way. Damn. How’d this all start?”
Nakatsu hesitated in divulging the whole story. Well, why the hell not. He
needed someone to talk to about this. Kayashima was a great friend, but Nakatsu
needed someone who had some kind of experience in this department. Being gay
was still really new to the blond. Maybe the doctor could give him some advice
since he’d known where Nakatsu was coming from best.
“I won’t judge you,” Umeda said to soothe his worries.
The blond seemed to relax a little after that was said. So he just started
talking. He began with the first kiss. He found it hard to talk about at first,
but once he got going with the story he couldn’t stop. It just all poured out
of him. The kisses, the making out, the weird fights they had, how Kagurazaka
refused to give him a reason for any of it, and the blow job he’d gotten
(though he didn’t go into excessive detail with that). Umeda just listened in
fascinated silence. It was like some sort of crazy teen drama story. When
Nakatsu finally finished talking the two sat there in companionable silence.
Oddly, Umeda felt a new kinship to the kid. He’d been in Nakatsu’s shoes before
with a similar situation when he was learning about what being gay really
meant. It wasn’t going to get any easier for Nakatsu either.
“So what you’re really worried about is what Kagurazaka means by all of this,”
Umeda reiterated.
“Yes,” Nakatsu agreed.
Umeda sighed. “You might not get that answer for a while.”
“What do you think it means?” Nakatsu asked curiously.
“I think it means the kid really likes you. He’s come to watch you practice
which means he’s interested in you as more than a fuck (pardon the term). He
probably doesn’t want to say anything, because you’re new to all of this and he
doesn’t want to scare you off. So I say, go with the flow. It’s a learning
experience.” Umeda shrugged and grinned.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes. “Shouldn’t you be dissuading me since you’re the
school doctor?”
“Probably, and lecture on the merits of safe sex and all that jazz. But you’re
a smart kid. Just be careful.” The doctor replied evenly.
“Unbelievable,” the blond muttered. “What if I end up liking him? What if he
really doesn’t want anything more than just sexually stuff?”
Umeda sighed. “I can’t tell you what to do with your life. These are obstacles
you’re going to have to face when and if they happen. No one’s gonna be able to
tell you what to do in those situations. Do what feels best—in all aspects of
the meaning.”
Nakatsu flushed at that. “Ok.”
“And you can always come to me to talk about this. I will never say anything to
anyone about it. This is strictly confidential.” Umeda reassured him. “Now, you
better get going if you want to make it to dinner.”
The blond shot to his feet. “And they made shrimp tempura tonight! Thank you,
Umeda-sensei.” He was out the door and gone a moment later.
Umeda sighed heavily. “Poor kid. This shit is gonna get messy if he’s not
careful.” He stared out the window for a long moment. “Kagurazaka. Fucking
unbelievable…”
/////////////////////////////
Nakatsu had a hard time concentrating at practice the next day once he realized
Kagurazaka was in the bleachers watching him. He forced himself to focus on the
game, but even so he was still making sloppy mistakes. His mind kept wandering
and wondering back to the high jumper. What new thing would he get to
experience today with Kagurazaka? He kept remembering the taste of the high
jumper’s mouth, the feel of his hand on his cock, and the press of his body
against the blond. He had to fight off the erection that was trying to make
itself known throughout practice. He gritted his teeth as he fired the soccer
ball into the net with all the ferocity of his pent up arousal.
Finally, practice ended. It felt like it never would. For the first time,
Nakatsu had something he wanted more than soccer at the moment. It was a little
startling. He looked up at the bleachers to see the high jumper already heading
his way. He swallowed hard as he let his eyes roam over the other guy’s body.
He was a few inches taller than the blond. His shoulders and chest were broader
as well. Still, he had a lithe look to him. Nakatsu had seen him jump. The guy
was incredible. He was a strong and powerful athlete. He knew it too. It showed
in the way the high jumper moved and walked. Right now, just watching him get
closer was turning Nakatsu on.
Kagurazaka smirked at the lust that was clearly showing on the soccer player’s
face. It was good thing all his team mates had disappeared into the locker room
already. Right now it was totally obvious that Nakatsu was having some pretty
gay thoughts. The high jumper was more than happy to know they were all about
him. He really wanted to grab the blond and shove his tongue down his throat.
He’d have to wait though. The other students were still around for another few
minutes. It was good to know that Nakatsu was finally showing signs of looking
forward to the times Kagurazaka showed up. After today, he was sure the blond
would be on edge until they met again. He had every intention of going all the
way with Nakatsu today, if he could get it. He was pretty certain he could.
“Hey, blondie,” Kagurazaka greeted the soccer player. Soon, he thought, I’ll be
able to call him lover.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes. “I have a real name, you know.”
“Yeah, but I like calling you that. I’m the only one that does,” the high
jumper replied calmly. It made him feel like he owned part of the soccer player
that no one else ever would.
“I didn’t know you were so into nicknames. I can always use the horrible one I
made up for you,” the blond smirked, shoving his hands in his pockets.
Kagurazaka grimaced in remembrance of that awful nickname. Kagu-pei. Ugh! “We
hated each other when you made that up. If you want to use a nickname think of
something new.”
Nakatsu shook his head. “Sure. I’ll think of something else.”
“You could just call me Makato.” The high jumper said casually.
“I don’t really think we are close enough to call each other by our first
names,” the blond replied a little curtly.
No, but we will be if I have anything to do with it, Kagurazaka thought with a
dark smirk.
Nakatsu saw that look and felt a shiver of something coil down his spin to
settle in the base of his cock. That look was lusty and primal. It was a look
Nakatsu was beginning to become very familiar with.
They both looked over when the soccer team started coming out of the locker
room.
“Hey, Nakatsu, we’re all going to dinner! You coming?” One of the guys called.
“Nah! I gotta talk to this guy about something! I’ll be there later!” Nakatsu
waved them off. He saw them all look over in surprise. It was almost unheard of
for the blond to turn down food in favor of something else. They didn’t
question it though. They were to hungry to stick around any longer. Nakatsu
watched as they all disappeared around the corner of the bleachers to head back
to the dorms. He jumped a little when he felt Kagurazaka’s hand grab his arm.
He let himself get pulled around. He tensed a little when the high jumper
captured his mouth in a fierce, deep kiss a second later. God, the guy moved
fast.
He stumbled backwards as Kagurazaka began to herd him in the direction of the
locker room without even breaking the kiss. The blond moaned when his back hit
the door and Kagurazaka’s body pressed hard into him. His erection got even
harder when he felt the high jumper’s equally stiff cock rub against his own.
Nakatsu’s hand fumbled for the locker room door handle as Kagurazaka continued
to devour his mouth. The blond’s cock throbbed in desperate need of relief.
That blow job from last time had been in his thoughts for days now. Every jerk
off session he’d had since then had involved the memories of it. He wanted a
repeat or something more. Fuck, anything if it meant getting off.
Finally his hand found the door knob and he managed to get it open. The two
nearly fell through the open doorway. Nakatsu stumbled and separated himself
from the overzealous high jumper. He glanced around the locker room quickly to
make sure there was no one else around. Satisfied that they were alone, he
slammed the door shut and locked it. Kagurazaka moved over to the warm up mats
stacked against the wall and began to pull down a few.
“What are you doing?” Nakatsu asked in confusion.
“Whatever we’re doing it’s not gonna be on a hard bench,” the high jumper
explained bluntly.
The blond flushed hotly. “Just what are we doing?” He shook his head and looked
away. “Fuck, I don’t even know why I’m in here with you. You’ve never even
given me a reason for any of what’s happened between us.”
Kagurazaka looked back at him with a smirk. “What the hell does it matter? You
want it. I want it. That’s reason enough.”
Nakatsu glared at such an insolent answer from Kagurazaka. He yelped as the
high jumper grabbed him by the arm and threw him down onto the mats. Kagurazaka
was on him before he could recover. His shirt was ripped up over his head
almost to fast for him to really register. He had to suppress the wild urge to
strike out at the boy above him. Every time the high jumper came at him like
this it was hard not feel like he was being attacked. His body reacted like he
was about to get into a fight. His adrenaline spiked rapidly, making his heart
pound and his breathing pick up. The strong hands sliding over his skin was
quickly provoking a different kind of reaction though. Nimble fingers tweaked
his nipples until he was moaning.
Kagurazaka leaned down to kiss and nip at the blond’s collar bone, working his
way down until he reached one hardened nipple. He fondled it with his lips
before licking it, earning a strangled gasp from the boy beneath him. His cock
twitched as Nakatsu began to squirm beneath him. Unwittingly, the blond was
grinding his cock into Kagurazaka’s. The high jumper growled as lust coursed
through him down into his cock. Shit, he wanted to skip all this foreplay and
just slam his dick inside Nakatsu. That was his ultimate goal after all. He
knew he’d get it today if he just played his cards right and held his patience.
The blond’s fingers dug into the mat beneath him as Kagurazaka continued moving
his mouth further south. The high jumper hooked his fingers into Nakatsu’s
shorts, drawing them down as he sidled lower. He raised up just long enough to
pull the shorts and underwear all the way off. Nakatsu now lay completely naked
underneath him. The high jumper couldn’t help but stop to admire the view.
Really, the blond had a kicking body. He was all lean lines, smooth skin, and
hard muscle. There was not an ounce of fat on him even though Kagurazaka knew
the boy ate enough to feed three people. The blond’s cock was quite nice as
well. He was larger than average in length and his balls were the perfect size
to compliment. Kagurazaka had tasted that hardened cock once already, only to
find it more addicting than he would dare admit. Since the last encounter, all
he wanted was to get his mouth back on the blond’s dick. He couldn’t resist any
longer.
He took Nakatsu’s cock into his mouth, sliding his tongue roughly down the
length before pulling back to swirl his tongue around the head. Nakatsu made
that strange sobbing whine noise again that sent a shiver down Kagurazaka’s
spin. None of the guys he’d ever been with had ever responded so eagerly to
him. He shivered when the blond buried his fingers in Kagurazaka’s hair and
scraped his nails over the high jumper’s scalp. Kagurazaka licked and sucked
over the length of the blond’s cock, unable to get enough of the hot, salty,
smooth skin in his mouth. He purred as he lapped up every drop of pre-cum that
leaked into his mouth. His own cock was beginning to beg loudly for attention.
He wouldn’t be able to ignore it much longer.
He reluctantly pulled his mouth off Nakatsu’s cock. The blond groaned in
protest, making Kagurazaka smirk in triumph. He had the boy right where he
wanted him. It would only take a little more to get inside him. God, he could
hardly wait to feel the tight heat of that virgin ass. Impatience getting to
him, he grabbed Nakatsu by the hips and flipped the boy over onto his stomach.
“What the hell?!” Nakatsu snarled angrily as he was suddenly forced over onto
his stomach. He yelped as his hips were yanked up off the mat. He didn’t know
what Kagurazaka was about to do now, but his stomach was knotting in
anticipation. He needed to get off so badly. He’d been so desperately close.
However, there was no way he could prepare for what happened next.
He tried to get away as Kagurazaka spread his ass cheeks. What the hell was the
high jumper planning on doing back there? He felt horribly exposed. His worries
were shattered as a wet, warm tongue teased over his puckered hole. Fire seemed
to flash up his spin and through his cock. He’d never heard of this before. He
had no idea such a thing could feel so fucking incredible. His cock throbbed
hard as it drooled pre-cum onto the mat below him. He could barely keep his
knees under him as that wet tongue continued to torture him. A tearing whine
escaped Nakatsu’s throat as that hot appendage pressed inside him.
“Holy shit!” he gasped through gritted teeth as that tongue teased and swirled
inside him. It felt so damn good.
Kagurazaka felt immensely satisfied at the reaction he was receiving from his
soon to be uke. He reached into his pants pocket to pull out the little bottle
of oil he’d concealed there just for this purpose. He took his mouth away from
the blond’s ass to quickly oil up his fingers. He nipped and kissed at the soft
skin of Nakatsu’s ass, enjoying the sounds coming from Nakatsu’s mouth. He was
really surprised the blond wasn’t fighting him more. But he had a feeling the
boy was to overcome by the new sensations racing through him to do much more
than take it. So he dared to go further. Grabbing onto Nakatsu’s hip so he
couldn’t get away, Kagurazaka rubbed one oiled finger against that pink
opening. The reaction from the blond was immediate.
“What the hell are you doing?!” Nakatsu jerked and struggled to get away.
The high jumper had to laugh. The reaction was exactly what he had expected.
“Relax. I haven’t hurt you yet, have I?”
That made the blond still for a moment. So far everything Kagurazaka had done
to him had felt good. Granted some of it had been strange. The pleasure of it
though had made his argumentative side quiet down. This, however, was something
entirely different. Nakatsu knew what this kind of activity led to. He wasn’t
sure if he was ready to go there, especially with this guy. His mind was drawn
back to the boy holding him when Kagurazaka nipped-- none to lightly-- at the
sensitive skin on his lower backside.
“Hey!” he snapped angrily.
The high jumper snickered at him again. “What are you so scared of?”
Nakatsu growled. “I’m not scared.”
“You know I have this theory about you,” Kagurazaka remarked, a second before
his hand reached around and took the blond’s cock into his hand once more. He
stroked over that hardened length, spreading the cum down Nakatsu’s length to
slicken the path his hand was taking. “You keep letting me do things to you,
because you’re curious. The last few times I’ve made you feel good so you keep
coming back to see what I’ll do next. Isn’t that right?”
Nakatsu gritted his teeth, pissed that the high jumper had hit the proverbial
nail on the head. “Shut up.”
“Hmmm... so I’m right,” Kagurazaka smirked, continuing to jerk off the boy
beneath him. Nakatsu’s body trembled with the overwhelming need to cum. “Why
don’t you shut your mouth and let me do my thing? You know it’s gonna feel good
in the end.” With that he pushed one finger inside the blond’s tight, hot hole.
His cock immediately throbbed at the feel of those muscles clenching so hard
around just that one finger. Nakatsu’s nails scraped across the mat as he
instinctively tried to get away again. The high jumper let go of the blond’s
cock to grab his hip and hold him in place.
“Relax,” he purred against the blond’s back. He smiled at the shiver that
crawled up Nakatsu’s spin. He pressed in a second finger and began to pump them
in and out of the blond. Nakatsu squirmed at the stretching, odd feel he felt
as those fingers worked deeper into him. He wasn’t sure whether it felt good or
not. It was so strange and so different from everything else he’d experienced
so far that he wasn’t quite sure how to classify it.
As soon as he began to feel somewhat used to the sensation the fingers where
gone. He was confused for a minute, until he felt something blunt and much
larger butting up against his hole. He swallowed hard, knowing what was coming
next. A stab of fear and a thrill of anticipation race through him. He wanted
to speak, to protest maybe, but his mouth was locked tight. His body was to
caught up in all the new sensations. A second later, he wished he had said
stop.
The high jumper began to press into him. At first it wasn’t unpleasant, just
incredibly weird to feel himself opening and knowing someone was putting a dick
up his ass. Then, suddenly, it hurt. It was painful in a way he couldn’t
describe because he’d never felt it before. It was the stretched feeling of his
body giving way as that dick drove deeper into him. He hitched his hips forward
trying to get away, but Kagurazaka’s big hands kept him from going anywhere. He
put his head down, beginning to pant heavily as he tried to concentrate on
anything other than the pain. Oh God, the high jumper felt huge inside him and
he was still thrusting inward. He didn’t know how much more he could take. He
forced himself to take a deep breath–to relax–because he knew tensing up
wouldn’t help.
Kagurazaka laid his forehead on Nakatsu’s back as he finally felt the blond
accept the full length of his cock inside him. God, the feel of those muscles
clamping down on him so hard was almost painful and the heat had him seeing
stars. He had to fight not to cum. He’d never been inside anyone whose body
gripped him and held him this tight. He panted as tremors rocked his body,
begging him to move, and burrow further into that exquisite heat. He began to
thrust, shallow at first, to let Nakatsu get used to feel.
Beneath the high jumper, Nakatsu was biting his lips not to whimper like a
bitch. Fuck, it hurt! It felt like he was being split open. He’d never felt
anything like this in his entire life. The feeling of that hot dick filling him
was beyond words to describe it. And those first few thrusts felt like
Kagurazaka was trying to tear him open wider. He arched his back in an effort
to get away, but the gesture only sent his hips slamming back against the high
jumper’s. His eyes went wide and startled cry left his mouth as something
inside him was hit by the high jumper’s cock. His arms collapsed as pleasure
sizzled through his nerves like a shock from an electric current.
“Fuck!” he choked as the high jumper hit that spot again. What was that? Why
did it feel so fucking good! God, it had to be wrong. Men weren’t supposed to
like being fucked like this! He never thought he’d find pleasure in having a
guy’s dick up his ass. Yet, as that spot was continually stroked by
Kagurazaka’s cock he began to hope it wouldn’t stop.
Kagurazaka grinned fiercely as the blond’s hips began to rock against his in
effort to keep that feeling inside him from not ending. He knew what Nakatsu
was feeling. He’d played bottom plenty of times. He could remember the first
time he’d felt that intense pleasure shockwave up his spin. He’d known that
Nakatsu would love playing bitch once he got a taste of the pleasure. He began
to slam his hips harder, burying himself further and further inside the blond
as Nakatsu’s body learned to accept him. It was all he could do not to fuck the
holy hell out Nakatsu’s virgin ass. He’d never felt anything so amazing!
He gritted his teeth as he pulled out and flipped Nakatsu over on to his back.
The blond stared at him in shock as Kagurazaka grabbed his ankles to hike those
strong legs over his shoulders. “I wanna see your face when you come,” the high
jumper explained as he teased Nakatsu’s balls with his dick. Then he positioned
himself and pushed back inside that perfect hole with a loud moan. Nakatsu’s
fists slammed into the mat as Kagurazaka’s cock struck the blond’s sweet spot
with enough force to make his back bow up off the mat.
“Ahhh! Holy shit!” Nakatsu cried, as Kagurazaka began to fuck him hard from
this new angle. The feeling was even more intense this way. Their pants, moans,
and swears filled the air as the high jumper’s thrusts got more frantic. They
were both so close. Kagurazka was doing everything he could to hold on. Nakatsu
was writhing on the mat beneath, body tense and begging to cum. His stomach was
painted with little puddles of pre-cum as his cock smacked against him with
every thrust. They were both wavering on the edge. Orgasm was so close, but
just not quite within reach. It was driving them both crazy. Nakatsu felt like
he was going to break out of his skin with the force of need raging through
him. He yelped in ecstasy when Kagurazaka’s hand wrapped around his dick. It
only took only two strokes of that hand and Nakatsu was coming. He cried out
loudly as his orgasm took hold of his body. It felt like he was flying apart.
His whole body jerked and spasmed as cum splattered across his chest.
“Fuck!” Kagurazaka gasped as Nakatsu’s body tightened around his cock suddenly.
He barely managed half a thrust before he was coming too. He threw his head
back as his hips snapped hard into the blond’s ass. He moaned brokenly as
Nakatsu’s body milked him of all he had to give. The pleasure was so intense it
took his breath away. He dug his fingers into the blond’s thighs, fighting to
ride the tide of his orgasm. Finally, he was spent and instantly exhaustion
washed over him. He collapsed on top of Nakatsu gracelessly.
The blond groaned helplessly when the high jumper’s body rubbed against his
still sensitive body. His muscles twitched at the little shocks of pleasure
that chased up his nerves even after the intensity of the orgasm he’d just
experienced. That had to be the most powerful release he’d ever experienced. He
raised his arms to rub his hands down the high jumper’s naked sides before
squeezing his ass gently. He smiled when Kagurazaka moaned helplessly in the
back of his throat, still feeling the after effects of his orgasm as well.
Nakatsu blinked in surprise at his own sappy, mellow behavior. He’d never
expected to act that way after sex.
“Holy shit,” he gasped. He’d just had sex…with a guy. FOR THE FIRST FUCKING
TIME! He went still as the realization really began to sink in. He hardly
noticed Kagurazaka propping himself up on his elbows to peer down at him. Why
the hell did he just do that? What the hell was he thinking? He hardly even
knew this guy!
“Hey!” Kagurazaka punched him in the shoulder.
Nakatsu started and focused on the high jumper’s face. “What?”
“Stop freaking out,” Kagurazaka snapped.
“I’m not freaking out!” the blond shot back.
The high jumper rolled his eyes before moving until he was kneeling beside
Nakatsu. His eyes swept over the blond’s body to admire the mess they’d made.
He licked his lips at the sight. Damn, that was hot. Nakatsu looked so damned
sexy covered in cum and blissed out looking. He forced himself to focus back to
the matter at hand. “Yes, you were. Stop worrying about the whys of everything
all the time. It’s not important. If it felt good that’s what mattered.”
Nakatsu blinked in surprise at the high jumper. Kagurazaka was actually trying
to sooth him? Although what he said made a weird kind of sense. “It felt really
good.”
“I hope so. I felt fucking awesome to me,” Kagurazaka smirked at him.
Nakatsu laughed a little. “Yeah.” He looked over at the high jumper and
grinned.
“What?”
“You look really sexy with your hair down. You look even better when you’re not
scowling like a rapist,” Nakatsu joked.
Kagurazaka glared. “I don’t look like a rapist.”
“Now you do.”
“I can smile.”
“For like two seconds. You afraid you’re gonna break your face?” Nakatsu felt
good to have something to use against the guy finally. Kagurazaka was always
picking on him. It was only fair to return it.
“Well, anyway,” Kagurazaka ignored that last remark. “I need to get going.”
Nakatsu nodded and stood up. “You’re not gonna shower?”
“No, I’ll do that at home. Besides the longer we stay in here the more likely
we are to be caught.” Kagurazaka said, as he pulled his clothes on.
“Yeah.” Nakatsu muttered, not bothering to put on clothes. He’d take a shower
in the locker room. He didn’t want to go back to the dorms looking like this.
He was pretty sure his appearance just screamed ‘freshly fucked.’
The two stared at each other for a long moment. Was there some sort of protocol
to be followed after you just fucked a guy for the first time? Who knew?
“Well, I’ll see yah later,” Kagurazaka broke the silence. His eyes trailed over
the blond’s body one last time before turning towards the door.
“See yah,” Nakatsu replied, watching the high jumper leave.
***** Chapter 4 *****
It scared Kagurazaka how quickly he was getting caught up in Nakatsu. At first,
it had been just attraction that caused him to keep showing up to Sano's
practices in hopes of seeing the blond. He hadn't realized why he wanted to for
a long time. Once he did though he wasn't one for that denial shit. The more he
watched the blond the more interested he got. He found Nakatsu fascinating for
some reason. Everything about him was so passionate and straight forward. He
put a 100% into everything he did. Kagurazaka could only manage that with high
jumping…and sometimes sex. He hadn't really expected the weird attraction to
Nakatsu to pan out into anything. He hadn't really made any effort into going
after the blond because he thought Nakatsu was straight. He'd been shocked to
hear the bond had professed his love to Mizuki, a "boy" at the time.
(Kagurazaka had always known there was something way to feminine about Mizuki.)
That new development had brought Nakatsu into the high jumper's sexual
orientation arena. The chance that anything could happen between them had
become slightly more conceivable. He began to plot for just the right moment
when he could get Nakatsu alone. It had taken some time before the opportunity
presented itself; when it did though he struck without second thought.
He'd been more than surprised when Nakatsu had initiated kiss #2. Everything
after that happened so fast he felt like he was caught on a bullet train. It
was swiftly getting out of his control. He hated it when that happened to him.
All the sports training he'd ever had was about control so he was somewhat of a
control freak now. He'd planned for everything when he finally decided he
wanted to pursue Nakatsu, but the blond was unpredictable. More than that
though, the blond was uncontrollable. What was worse than the loss of control
were the feelings he was experiencing because of the blond. They were even more
unpredictable. From attraction, to lust, to something more he wasn't ready to
give into yet had him pretty nervous. This had only ever been for entertainment
and sex. Yet, all his thoughts seemed to be bent on the blond these days. It
was driving him crazy. He got so pissed off at how much he was beginning to
obsess over Nakatsu. The sex they'd had was better than any he'd ever
experienced with anyone previously. He hadn't expected that. It left him weak
kneed and wanting so much more. Fuck.
He sighed heavily as he turned his head to stare out the window of the
classroom. He had long since tuned out the teacher. Just thinking about the
blond got him all wound up and agitated. That pissed him off even more. It was
like a vicious, heinous cycle. He wanted school to be over so he could go over
to Osaka and fuck the blond again. He had a feeling he was getting into deep.
He should probably break off whatever it was they had between them before he
got to caught up in Nakatsu. A little voice in the back of his mind whispered
it was already to late for that.
Umeda looked up when Nakatsu walked into his office during a class break. He
was mildly surprised to see the blond. He watched Nakatsu flop into the chair
across from his desk like someone had let the wind out of his sails. Umeda got
up and poured himself a cup of coffee. He had a feeling he was gonna need it
for the discussion that was about to start. He would fully admit he was
definitely intrigued to hear more about the drama unfolding between Nakatsu and
Kagurazaka. He sat back down in his chair and waited.
"We did it," Nakatsu finally said.
The doctor quirked up an eyebrow in surprise before asking, "The horizontal
tango?"
Nakatsu flushed crimson at that description, but nodded. "Yeah that."
"Huh," Umeda said before taking a sip from his coffee.
"That's it?" the blond looked at him in shock.
Umeda shrugged. "What do you want me to say? Was it good?"
Nakatsu fell into a sullen silence for a few minutes. "It was good. Not what I
expected at all."
"Well, that's a good thing. At least, it didn't suck," the doctor remarked
candidly.
"Did you have feelings for the first guy you ever slept with?" Nakatsu asked
suddenly.
Umeda sat back in his chair with a sigh. "Yes and no."
"What's that mean?"
"I was in love with someone else. I liked that guy. I was attracted to him. I
knew I'd never have the person I really wanted so I gave it up to the first man
that I felt like. It was great. We had a brief relationship, but it didn't
amount to anything," Umeda explained. He didn't tell a lot of people about that
story. Damn kid better feel privileged. That was pretty personal information.
Nakatsu looked thoughtful. "Sounds complicated."
"It was…sort of."
"I think I might be starting to like him," Nakatsu admitted after a long
moment. "And I don't know if he likes me. I know you said you think he does,
but I dunno. He told me he just wants a fuck buddy…basically."
Umeda sighed. "I warned you. I can't tell you what to do about this."
"I remember what you said. I'm just wondering why I'm starting to like him. I
don't get it! He's rude, annoying, and sarcastic. I mean, yeah he's a great lay
and he looks really good with his hair down. But that's not enough to make me
want to like him…" Nakatsu ranted then trailed off as he realized everything he
had said. He looked up at Umeda slightly horrified.
Umeda was grinning at him in amusement. "I can see why it would be hard to
understand the sudden like."
"Shuttup," he grumbled irritably. "I never should have gotten involved with
this guy. It was stupid."
"I don't think so. You're a teenager. Sometimes the best way to learn things is
through firsthand experience. Its better you're learning this now. At least
he's being a good lover from what you've said. Some guys are considerate enough
to make sex good for their partner." Umeda responded soothingly. "Why don't you
give him a little more of a chance?"
Nakatsu looked a little disbelieving. "You're seriously encouraging me?"
"I'll deny it if it ever comes up, but I suppose. I think it's important to
find out what you like in every aspect of your life. Sex is a very important
part of life and it should be something you enjoy." He replied easily. "Look at
it this way, at least now you know for sure that you are gay. Everything before
could have just been chalked up to teenage curiosity. Gotta give the high
jumper credit for helping you find that out for certain."
The blond shook his head. "That's a weird way of looking at it. I guess so
though."
"Alright then," Umeda smiled. "Now get out. I've got other things to do besides
listening to you."
Nakatsu rolled his eyes and stood up. He walked to the door, but paused before
opening it. "Thanks, Dr. Umeda," he said, then left.
Kagurazaka had raced over to Osaka as soon as school let out. He'd gotten to
the sports field in time to watch Nakatsu practice for a little while. Every
move the blond made was arousing to the high jumper. He wanted to get his hands
on Nakatsu so badly he ached. He dropped his head into his hands when he
realized how desperate he was acting. God, one blow job, a good lay, and
several kisses had him chasing after this guy like a dog for a steak. It was
ridiculous. He'd been sexually active for a while now, but no one had made him
feel like this. Sure, he'd lusted after people, but this was more than that. He
didn't just want to fuck Nakatsu. He wanted to hear his voice, see his stupid
angry expression, and watch his eyes glaze with arousal. Dammit, he was worse
off than he thought.
Soon as Nakatsu's practice was over he was off those bleachers and on the field
before he even realized he was in motion. He watched the players all disappear
into the locker room. He grabbed the blond by the upper arm and spun him
around. Nakatsu didn't even get to finish saying what before the high jumper
was kissing him hard. The blond tensed for a minute before kissing him back.
They jumped apart when they heard the locker room door open and everyone come
back out. Nakatsu sent them off with a jaunty wave. Apparently, they were
getting used to seeing Nakatsu stay behind now to talk to the high jumper.
"Miss me or something, Zakie?" the blond grinned at him.
"Zakie?" The high jumper repeated in surprise.
Nakatsu's smile broadened. "I told you I'd make up a nickname for you. You call
me blondie, so you're Zakie. It's only fair."
Kagurazaka narrowed his eyes irritably before grabbing his arm again and
pulling him into the locker room. Nakatsu glanced around to make sure everyone
was gone before the high jumper locked the door. They were on each other in an
instant. Kagurazaka slammed the blond back against the lockers, kissing him
hungrily while he struggled to get his clothes off. Nakatsu answered his need
just as frantically. It felt like if they didn't get naked and fuck they'd
explode. Kagurazaka had never felt this high on arousal or this desperate to be
inside someone. Somehow they managed to get a few mats thrown onto the floor
before Nakatsu was on his back. After that it was all like a fast motion blur.
He reveled in the moment he finally sank inside the blond once more. Nakatsu
was so fucking tight—so damn right. He pressed his face into the blond's neck
as he fucked him—slow and deep. He soaked up every sound Nakatsu made. Each one
was so sexy and needy sounding. The high jumper lifted himself up to stare down
at the blond as he continued to thrust. God, Nakatsu was so damn hot. His blond
hair had fallen into his eyes as he panted and moaned beneath Kagurazaka. It
didn't take long for them both to come. They were both to excited, and far to
aroused, to last very long. Kagurazaka collapsed onto of Nakatsu, trying to
catch his breath and slow his racing heart. He shivered when the blond's hands
came up to rub his sides soothingly just like he had last time. It felt good.
It also scared him because it made him want more of these kind of gentle
touches. That just proved more than ever how deep he was getting into with how
he felt for this boy.
"Fuck," he whispered before pushing himself off the other boy. He plopped down
at the end of the mat and wiped a hand down his face. He watched Nakatsu sit up
before running a long fingered hand through his mussed blond locks. They sat in
silence for a minute just eyeing each other. The sex that had just happened
left them both a little surprised and confused. "Sorry about just attacking you
like that," the high jumper finally broke the quiet.
Nakatsu just shrugged. "It's fine. Kinda surprised me, but I wanted it just as
bad too."
"Already getting used to being my bitch, huh?" Kagurazaka smirked.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes. "I'm no one's bitch."
They were both silent for another moment.
"You still haven't told me why you're doing this," Nakatsu pointed out, as he
sat naked on the mat. He didn't seem to care in the least about the cum still
leaking out of him on to the blue surface beneath him.
Kagurazaka swallowed hard at the erotic sight of the boy in front of him. "I
don't know." He got to his feet intent on getting his clothes back on and
getting out of there before he accidently admitted to anything.
"You keep saying that. It's total bullshit," the blond shot back. "I'm gonna
keep asking until I get an answer."
"Look, I don't know. Whenever I came to see Sano jump you were always there
with Mizuki. And for whatever reason you always had to pick a fight with me. It
started to turn me on at some point. I tried to ignore it, but it got to the
point of distraction. Then I realized I was showing up not to watch Sano jump,
but to fight with you! And that kiss just happened. It just got ten times worse
after that. I think about you all the time and plan what to do to you the next
time I'm with you. It's so goddamn irritating!" Kagurazaka exploded angrily.
When his rant was finished he stared in shock at the blond as his chest heaved
with each panted breath.
Nakatsu leaned back on his hands with a smirk. It was obvious the high jumper
hadn't meant to confess all that. Somehow it was satisfying to hear he was not
the only one fighting this strange, annoying yet completely compelling
attraction that kept drawing them back together. However, it sounded like it
had been going on much longer for Kagurazaka.
"Sounds like you really got the hots for me," the blond remarked smugly.
Kagurazaka's heart pounded heavy as he glared down at Nakatsu. Anger at his own
big mouth and at the impudence from the blond coursed through him. Yet, lust
throbbed through him as well. Sitting back like that had caused Nakatsu to
completely expose himself. His legs were spread wide open, showing off a half
hard cock and wet backside filled with the high jumper's cum. Kagurazaka
stalked forward and dropped to his knees between the blond's legs. Nakatsu's
eyes widened in shock as the high jumper grabbed his calves and hiked them over
his arms. He leaned forward with a smirk, forcing the blond to fold in half
beneath him. He was pleased to see Nakatsu's cock was already back to full
attention.
"Maybe I do," Kagurazaka admitted. His gaze shifted down blatantly to the
blond's erect cock. Nakatsu's eyes followed the high jumper's before he
flushed. "But apparently you're no better off."
With that he slammed inside the blond, enjoying the slick sound his cock made
as it sank inside that tight, wet hole. Nakatsu sucked in a sharp breath as his
back bowed up off the mat. His hands scrambled to find purchase as Kagurazaka
began to pound into him, hard and fast. The high jumper smiled fiercely as he
shifted his hips to hit that place inside the blond that made him whine and
scream. Kagurazaka was not disappointed by the reaction he got. That tearing,
sobbing whine seemed to rip almost painfully from Nakatsu's throat as he
writhed against the high jumper.
The wet, erotic sound of each thrust inward, the slap of flesh on flesh, and
the blond's pornographic sounds were quickly driving Kagurazaka to the edge. He
strove for it with little regard to anything else. His strokes became more
erratic and harsh as his orgasm built inside him. His whole body trembled as he
got closer and closer. He watched Nakatsu beneath him with supreme satisfaction
as the tell tale signs of the blond's impending orgasm began to arise. Then the
high jumper's climax crashed through him, forcing his hips to slam forward
brutally into Nakatsu. His fingers dug into the blond's lean hips as he emptied
himself inside of that wet heat one more time. He rode out the waves of
pleasure in a harsh cry until they finally subsided.
He opened his eyes, not realizing they had fallen shut, as Nakatsu's hips
rocked desperately against him. The blond's body quivered with the unyielding
need to cum. Kagurazaka slipped free of Nakatsu, keeping the other boy's legs
up over his shoulders. He moved his body down until his mouth could reach the
blond's swollen dick. Nakatsu nearly screamed as the high jumper's mouth
descended on his cock. It only took one stroke of that hot tongue over his
length and he was coming hard. Kagurazaka felt smug satisfaction as the blond
tried to stifle his voice, but his scream could still be heard. Nakatsu went
limp as the high jumper pulled off him and sat back on his heels. Little
tremors still ran through both of them from the intensity of their orgasms. The
blond had to laugh a little as he looked over at the still panting Kagurazaka.
"We've got it bad," Nakatsu joked as he worked to catch his breath too.
Kagurazaka shook his head, to worn out to fight or argue.
"We should probably get outta here before someone comes looking for us," the
blond pointed out.
"You gonna go out leaking cum like that?" the high jumper smirked.
Nakatsu flushed. "Shut the hell up. You damn near attacked me-again."
"You invited it. The way you spread your legs like you were some gay porn
model," Kagurazaka sneered at him.
Nakatsu growled, rolling up onto his knees so he was eye level with the other
boy. He grabbed Kagurazaka by the back of the neck to yank him forward into a
bruising kiss. The high jumper fought against him, but Nakatsu hung on and
maintained control of the kiss. After a moment of struggle Kagurazaka relented
and let the blond kiss him thoroughly. They drew apart, both breathing heavy.
"Man, you piss me off," Nakatsu snarled.
"Likewise," the high jumper agreed.
The two got to their feet.
"I'm gonna take a shower," the blond said, gathering up his clothes before
going to rummage through his locker for bathing materials.
"I'll clean up the mats but I go," Kagurazaka said.
"Alright."
The two stared at each other a long moment. They seemed to move together in
some silent, mutual understanding. Their mouths found each other in kiss that
was far softer and gentler than any they'd previously shared. They broke it off
abruptly. Both stepped away quickly with equal looks of surprise.
"I'll see yah later," Nakatsu broke the strange silence.
Kagurazaka turned away swiftly. "Yeah, later."
Fuck! They both thought. This was starting to get serious.
***** Chapter 5 *****
There were several awkward days after that soft kiss that kept the two away
from each other. The words that had been exchanged before that last fuck had
been a joke, or at least perceived that way at the time. Now those words didn't
seem so funny anymore. That kiss had shown them both there was something else
besides just lust and that magnetic pull of attraction. It was something they
couldn't ignore. It was also something they weren't sure if they wanted to face
or could handle. After all they really knew nothing about each other except
what got the other off. Both were desperate to avoid the truth that was staring
them in the face.
Nakatsu should have been more cautious about whatever it was they had between
them. He was an idiot not to be more careful when the whole situation had
begun. He was not like the other guys who could date or fuck around and not get
attached. He as to big hearted and to taken with the romantic notion of having
only person that you loved and slept with the rest of your life. He'd let his
lust and hormones get the better of him. He should have know his emotions would
eventually catch up. He tended to say and do things rashly without bothering to
think it all through. Some day he was going to have to learn from that mistake.
Though this time around he was pretty sure he had thought it all through pretty
well. He'd listened to Umeda's advice. He'd accepted that he might be starting
to like the high jumper. He'd had a vague clue that the other boy liked him
back. That was fine by him. Liking each other was all well and good, but that
kiss showed it might be more than like too. And that was what made him nervous.
Kagurazaka, on the other hand, had been ignoring his feelings towards Nakatsu
from the very beginning. He'd blamed his whole desire for the blond on
hormones. He'd never really been to worried about his sexuality, dating, or any
of that before Nakatsu. He'd been to caught up in his high jumping to really
pay attention to all that crap that normal high school boys did. Sure he's
fucked around with some people, girls and guys alike. Enough to know he leaned
more towards liking guys. Still sex was not something he spent a whole lot of
time thinking about. So it had been a shock to realize it was Nakatsu that had
finally slammed his ignored hormones into gear; and it seemed they had been
switched to overdrive, no less. He seriously wondered about his sanity in
deciding to chase after that loud mouthed idiot. He had stubbornly refused to
acknowledge what it was that kept drawing him back to Nakatsu for a long time.
He had kept hoping it would go away at some point if he ignored it. It had to
die out. At least he had hoped so. That first kiss between them had changed
everything. Now that he'd had the blond his body was bent on getting more of
him. He wanted more than sex now though. That was what worried him.
So while they tried to work out what they were feeling for each other, they
avoided one another. Well, mostly Kagurazaka avoided Nakatsu. He stopped
showing up to Osaka field. Nakatsu had to admit, even if only to himself, that
he missed the guy. He missed looking up in the stands to see him sitting there.
He always played better when the high jumper was watching. He missed the way
the guy would come running down from the stands to grab him like he just
couldn't stand not to touch the blond anymore. Fuck, he just missed Kagurazaka
in general. That just confused him even more. He wasn't supposed to miss that
scowl faced bastard.
Sano wandered over to where Nakatsu was looking up at the bleachers with a
disappointed face. "So, uhhh, no Kagurazaka today."
"Nope." Nakatsu sighed. Then he realized what he'd just said out loud. His eyes
widened in horror as he whipped his head around to stare at his friend. "Why do
you think I'm looking for that asshole?" He tried to cover up his mistake.
Sano smirked. "Maybe, because the two of you have been meeting after practice
several times in the last few weeks. Kinda hard not to notice. Didn't you guys
hate each other?"
"Er…," Nakatsu mumbled.
"I've seen you two disappear into the locker room a few times together," Sano
remarked casually, shoving his hands in his pockets.
"Well, that's…uh," The blond rubbed the back of his head nervous. Fuck, his
friend had backed him into a corner. It seemed like Sano had already worked
everything out for himself anyways. He might as well just tell him outright.
Besides it was only fair to let his best friend know.
"You're seriously gay, aren't you?" The black haired boy asked softly.
Nakatsu sighed. "Yeah."
"I figured that out a while ago."
"Why'd you say that?"
"Because once you found out Mizuki was a girl you treated her different. At
first, I thought it was just because you knew she was a girl. Then I noticed
that you weren't looking at her like a lovesick puppy anymore." Sano explained.
"Oh."
"So what's up with Kagurazaka?" Sano inquired after a moment of awkward
silence.
Nakatsu cleared his throat. "We're…uh…" Fuck, what were they? They didn't
really have a relationship. Sure, he was started to like the guy. He was pretty
damn sure Zakie liked him now. They met up for sex. So, lovers? Nooo. Friends
with benefits? He didn't really know if they were even truly friends. Fuck
buddies? Yeah, that was pretty much it. "We're fuck buddies." He felt rather
weird saying that aloud. It also felt a little liberating.
Sano made a surprised noise. "I mean I kinda figured, but for you to admit
it…damn."
"It just sorta happened." Nakatsu shrugged helplessly. "It was kinda sudden and
completely out of the blue."
"If it's just about sex, why do you look so disappointed that he's not here
though?" The other boy asked pointedly. The blond flushed in response. Sano
sighed heavily. "Look, man, just be careful. Kagurazaka's a great athlete, but
you know as well as I do that he's an asshole."
"Yeah," Nakatsu agreed, but he was beginning to wonder about that. "So you
don't have a problem with me being gay and screwing your high jumper rival?"
"When you put it that way it's a little weird," Sano smiled a little. "No, I
don't mind you being gay. I'm not to sure about Kagurazaka though."
"Me either," Nakatsu sighed. Then he froze. "Wait a second! You saw us going
into the locker room! What have you seen!?"
Sano just gave him a flat look. "Enough to figure out you guys are more than
friends."Come on. Let's go get dinner." Sano turned and began to walk off the
field. "And we're not mentioning this ever again."
Nakatsu stared at his back for a moment in stunned silence. Then he jogged
after the other boy to catch up. Well, at least Sano was still his friend. He
shoulda known he could count on the guy to accept him no matter what. They'd
been through so rough areas in their friendship but always came out the other
side still talking to each other. He was really glad he had a friend like Sano.
Kagurazaka showed up the next day to Osaka field, because he just couldn't
stand to stay away any longer. Not just because he missed having sex, but
because he actually missed the blond idiot in general. He watched Nakatsu
practice and was happy when the blond looked up to notice he was there. They
both exchanged a brief wave before Nakatsu focused back on the game. Kagurazaka
stared at his hand like it had betrayed him. He'd just acted like some love
struck girl waving to her boyfriend. He actually flushed in embarrassment at
the thought. He looked up when he felt someone looking at him. He turned his
head to see Sano watching him. When Sano caught his gaze, he tilted his head
towards the soccer field and smirked knowingly. Kagurazaka's eyes widened in
shock when he realized what the other boy was trying to get across. He knew!
That blond bastard! If he told Sano he was dead! He scowled at Sano and crossed
his arms over his chest. He turned his head away, ignoring him completely, or
at least trying to give the impression he was. He stood up and walked down to
meet Nakatsu when the soccer practice was over. The blond ambled towards him as
if he wasn't quite sure about wanting to come over. They stood awkwardly in
front of each other for a minute.
"Hey," Nakatsu finally broke the weird silence.
"Hey, blondie," Kagurazaka made himself smirk like always.
The blond rolled his eyes. "I haven't seen you for a few days, Zakie."
"Yeah, I was busy."
"The track team is gonna be out here late tonight. They have a meet coming up
this weekend they are preparing for." Nakatsu told him, ignoring the last
comment. "I can't do anything tonight anyways. I have a soccer match on
Saturday too."
Kagurazaka shrugged. Well, if the blond didn't want him around then he wasn't
staying. He got the message. "I guess I'll go then…"
Nakatsu grabbed his arm. "Hold on!"
They stood there staring at each other for a few seconds.
"You wanna just sit and talk?" Nakatsu asked quietly. He tried not to sound to
eager or hopeful, but he knew he hadn't been able to hide it very well.
Kagurazaka actually smiled a little. Apparently, he had misinterpreted the
blond's earlier words. They hadn't been a rejection, just an explanation like
they had sounded. "Alright."
They turned and climbed the bleachers until they were about near the middle
before sitting down. Kagurazaka sprawled out, stretching his legs over the back
of the seat in front of him. Nakatsu sat down beside him, close enough so that
their shoulders touched. Below them the track team continued to run around and
neither one of them envied the poor suckers. Kagurazaka looked down to see Sano
walking out of the locker room with his gym bag. The black haired boy looked up
and saw them sitting together. Kagurazaka gave him the finger. Sano just smiled
before walking back to the dorms.
"Sano knows about us, doesn't he?" The high jumper growled.
Nakatsu sighed. "He figured it out."
"Bastard's acting real smug about it too."
"He's surprised you're gay."
"I'm not gay. I'm bi."
Nakatsu looked over in surprise. "So you've actually been with girls too?"
"Yeah, it wasn't to bad," Kagurazaka replied. "I assume you haven't then."
"No," the blond flushed. "You're the first I've really done anything with."
"I figured," the high jumper grinned.
"Never hear you complaining about my lack of experience," Nakatsu grumbled.
Kagurazaka actually laughed. The blond's eyes widened in surprise. "That's
'cause there was nothing to complain about. You're an awesome lay."
"Thanks, I guess," the blond smiled a little. "Why did you take an interest in
me anyways?"
Kagurazaka hesitated before answering. He decided it wouldn't hurt to tell the
blond. "Well, it definitely wasn't intentional," the high jumper scowled. "Like
I said before I just came to watch Sano jump at first. That Mizuki pest started
bothering me until I started to keep tabs on when she was with Sano so I could
provoke her. Then you started tagging around too. I thought you were just
annoying. You still are." Nakatsu glared at him, which made him smile again. "I
noticed you following Mizuki and it was hard to watch you being that pathetic.
You irritated me with that lovesick attitude. Once I noticed you, I couldn't
stop watching you. I don't know why. You were just to hard to ignore."
Nakatsu shook his head. "That makes no sense."
"I know that!" Kagurazaka snapped then calmed when Nakatsu rolled his eyes at
him again. "You should understand though. Wasn't that how it was with Mizuki
for you? Wasn't it similar?"
"No," Nakatsu answered automatically. He paused as he thought about it. It
really had been. It was little things that had drawn his attention to her. It
was her smile, her laughter, and her passion that had caught his interest.
Things that seemed so small now had turned into true attraction and then love.
It felt like it happened over night. He did understand how the high jumper
felt. Sometimes you just couldn't explain why attraction struck the way it did.
"Yeah, I get it," he admitted after a moment.
Kagurazaka sat back with a satisfied smirk.
"But whatever this is between us…I don't get it," the blond confessed quietly.
He had no idea how he really felt about the high jumper beyond the sex they
shared. He knew he liked the guy. He knew the sex was fucking awesome.
Sometimes he thought he almost had the answer then his mind would shy away from
the truth. Maybe he really didn't want to know or understand what it was that
kept him drawn to the high jumper. It was twisted. It was confusing. The last
few days hadn't helped solve the issue.
"I don't get it either," Kagurazaka said, but Nakatsu didn't entirely believe
him.
They were quiet for a few minutes. The track team were all gathered around the
coach listening to him give instructions and encouragement.
"It's kinda funny. I've never really talked to you despite that we're fucking,"
Nakatsu remarked.
Kagurazaka sighed. "Yeah, we don't really need to for that."
"Yeah, but I really don't know anything about you except that you're a high
jumper and you've got sisters. It just seems sorta wrong." Nakatsu pointed out.
The high jumper shrugged. "There's really not a whole lot to know. Why do you
care?"
"Because I'm interested in you."
They both looked at each other in surprise. Nakatsu blushed a little in
embarrassment. Kagurazaka licked his lips before asking. "What do you want to
know?"
Nakatsu thought about it for a minute. "Where do you live?"
"Taisho-ku ward. Not to far from here."
"Why don't you go to Osaka High then?"
"It's to expensive. I have to help my mom with my sisters as much as possible
too." He sighed when he saw the unspoken question in Nakatsu's eyes. "My
parents run a small temple. It's been losing business lately so we don't make a
whole lot of money. I help to take care of Kyomi a lot. I have to keep Tamami
in line or she'd probably turn into a slut. I have a part time job to help pay
for food and clothes too. I don't want them to feel obligated to take care of
me since I'm older now."
"Wow. I never would have guessed you had a family situation like that. No
offense. You just don't act like you do," the blond said.
The high jumper chuckled a little. "I don't like people to look down on me. I
don't want to be pitied or be a charity case. Whatever I get in this world is
gonna be by my own hands."
"So…why high jump then?" Nakatsu asked. "It seems like you're pushing yourself
really hard for your family. High jumping has gotta be extra pressure on you."
"It makes my mom happy. It makes me feel free like I'm flying over that pole. I
like to see the pride in her eyes when I make a new record. Why do you play
soccer?"
"I like being part of a team. I don't have any siblings so my team is kinda
like my family. I like the thrill of scoring a goal. I love winning a game
because it's about the only thing I can do with success." Nakatsu laughed. "It
makes me feel free."
"It's not the only thing you can do with success," Kagurazaka gave him a
teasing grin.
Nakatsu shoved him. "Dirty minded bastard."
"Why'd you come to Osaka?" the high jumper asked curiously.
"To get away from my mom. It sounds horrible, but it was the only way I could
continue to play soccer without her interfering. I love her but she wants me to
take over the family business. I don't want to obviously. I wanna be a
professional soccer player. I want to make it all the way to the top. Do you
have a goal like that?" Nakatsu looked over at the high jumper with keen
interest.
"I'm gonna make it to the Olympics." The high jumper replied boldly.
"Wow, that's pretty awesome. I bet you can do it."
Kagurazaka smiled fiercely. "I am gonna do it. And I'll win a medal."
"How about we go together? I'll meet you there when I get on the Japanese
soccer team. We'll both get medals," Nakatsu grinned excitedly.
"Now you're just being crazy."
"What? You think I can't do it? I'll show you! I'll make it!" He exclaimed
determinedly, raising his fist in the air in a challenge.
Kagurazaka laughed helplessly. This was the side of Nakatsu he liked the best.
He loved the boy's passion. "Alright, blondie. Deal. We'll meet at the
Olympics. We'll win our medals and celebrate together."
Nakatsu put out his hand for a shake. "Deal."
The two clasped hands and shook firmly. Kagurazaka glanced down at the field to
see it was cleared of all the students finally. He couldn't resist leaning
forward to exchange one of those new slow, soft kisses with blond. He felt
Nakatsu smirk against his lips before returning the kiss. Kagurazaka drew back
enough to murmur against the blond's lips. "So you wanna do it out here on the
bleachers?"
"No!" Nakatsu gasped, scandalized. "Someone could see us!"
"So?" the high jumper grinned wickedly.
The blond shoved him back. "No. Not tonight. You're gonna have to wait. I have
to save my energy."
"Yeah yeah, for the game. Spoil sport."
"I don't mind making out though," Nakatsu remarked casually.
Kagurazaka sighed in mock dejection. "I guess that'll work for now."
"Are you gonna come to my game?" The blond asked hopefully.
"Do I look like your girlfriend?" The high jumper snorted. Nakatsu looked
slightly hurt. "Fine, I'll come to the damn game."
Nakatsu rolled his eyes before leaning forward to kiss the high jumper again.
He knew he was getting into deep now. Way past that point in fact. He didn't
really mind right at the moment. The more he got to know about the high jumper
the more he liked him. He wanted to know everything about Kagurazaka. They lost
themselves in the exchange of lips, teeth, and tongue. And it was perfect.
Neither one noticed Sano, who was standing around the corner of the locker room
to keep a look out for them. He stayed until the couple parted ways for the
night and then he hurried away before Nakatsu could find him there.
***** Chapter 6 *****
Even after Kagurazaka said he'd come to the soccer meet, Nakatsu hadn't seen
him. Granted it'd been a little hard to get a clear view of the field between
walking out and starting the game. During the game there was no time to even
think about the high jumper much less look for him. However, the few minutes
before the game started when he had been able to take a quick glance around had
yielded no sign of the spiky haired teen. Disappointed, and angry at feeling
that way, he'd played even more aggressively than usual. This meant he'd scored
lots of goals, but at his team mates expense on a few of those occasions. He
felt bad about it after the game. A little part of him hoped that he'd see the
high jumper coming off the stands like the rest of the family and friends
coming to congratulate the team for their win. When Kagurazaka didn't show for
that either it only compounded the disappointment.
Even a few days later he was still stewing over the fact that the high jumper
hadn't shown. What bothered him even more was how much it had mattered to him
that Kagurazaka come. He'd really wanted the other boy to be there. And he
shouldn't be thinking that. They weren't a real couple. They were barely
friends now. He was irritated by his own confusion.
"What's the matter?" Kayashima asked. He'd been watching his friend try to
study for a test for the last hour with no success. It was pretty obvious the
blond's mind was a million miles away from the upcoming test. Kayashima had
finally decided to speak up because Nakatsu's sighs, tapping fingers, and
rustling from shifting in his seat was starting to drive the other boy slightly
nuts.
Nakatsu sat back from his study notes with a grunt of annoyance. He threw down
his pencil before glancing over at his friend. "I think I'm getting really
serious about someone."
"You mean Kagurazaka," the spirit reader remarked.
The blond blushed and looked away. "Yeah."
"Is that so bad?"
"I dunno. I thought he might be getting serious too."
"I'm not understanding the problem."
"I don't know what we have. It's exciting, but explosive. We clash so badly
most of the time, but instead of fighting we-," he cut off abruptly in
embarrassment. That was getting a little to personal.
Kayashima's eyebrows raised in surprise when he realized what the blond had
been about to say. "You guys are lovers?"
"I wouldn't call it that," Nakatsu sighed, slumping lower in his chair.
"But you've…," Kayashima brought his hands together in a lurid gesture.
The blond stared at him in shock for half a second. His friend was so blunt
sometimes. "Yeah we have."
"That is pretty serious." The aura reader remarked. Nakatsu tapped his fingers
on his notes again."Perhaps it would be best to break it off if the situation
upsets you so much," Kayashima advised.
The blond furrowed his brows as he puzzled over the notion. He was baffled to
find that he was actually against that idea. Kagurazaka had only fucked him a
handful of time and it had been less than month since the whole strange affair
started. Yet, he was unwilling to let it go. Something huge had changed between
them since that first angry kiss. Maybe his reasons for not wanting to step
away were the same as the high jumper's. Perhaps they both looked forward to
what would happen next between them. Whatever it was they shared it had the
feel of a ticking time bomb. Every time they were alone whatever it was between
them seemed to just erupt. It was exhilarating and frightening. Nakatsu was
learning things about himself he'd never known before. His experiences with
Kagurazaka had solidified the whole truth of Nakatsu's sexuality to himself.
All his previous talk about girls, the brief stint of dating with Komari, and
how his attraction to Mizuki had changed once he realized she was a girl had
all shown him that girls really weren't of interest to him. He could admit now
that he was totally gay. Not only that he enjoyed what that truly meant
sexually. He liked kissing, blowjobs, rim jobs, and taking it in the ass. It
was not so horrifying to admit that as he had once thought it would be. And it
was all because of Kagurazaka.
Kayashima smiled at the aura surround Nakatsu. He knew those colors well. They
had surrounded the blond when he'd been "in love" with Mizuki. But those colors
had been light, not attesting to complete surrender to those feelings. These
colors were darker, a little volatile, but much stronger than any previous
times he'd seen it. Obviously, Nakatsu was not aware of how powerfully he felt
yet. Maybe because now it wasn't just words but actions he was trying to
understand.
"Go with your instincts," the aura reader said decisively.
Nakatsu blinked in surprise. That was a sudden change from the words he'd just
gotten only moments ago. He had a feeling Kayashima had read something in his
aura that had changed the boy's mind. He didn't bother to ask since he knew his
friend wouldn't tell anyways. He'd just trust in Kayashima's judgment. Funny
how his friend had helped him clear the confusion with only a few words.
"Alright. In that case, I wanna see how far this goes."
"Be careful."
Nakatsu laughed a little to himself. "That's what Sano said."
"Well, he's always been smart."
"Yeah."
Kagurazaka held his sister's hand as they waited for their mother and his other
sister, Tamami, to come out of a clothing shop. His mother had just been paying
the cashier when they walked out. They'd all be heading home soon. He was more
than ready to get back to his room. He could only stand so much clothes
shopping with girls. Sure, he'd got some new stuff to, but he'd never been one
for shopping. His sister, Kyomi, wiggled and danced next to him as she waited
impatiently for their mom. He ignored her attempts to jerk her hand out of his
grip. He'd learned long ago letting her get free was a bad idea. He wasn't in
the mood to chase a 4 year old down the street. He rocked back on his heels as
he watched the people walking along and milling in front of shops. He froze in
place when he saw bleached blond hair suddenly appear over the heads of the
other people.
"There's no way," he muttered to himself.
Of course, he was wrong.
He stared in shock when he saw Nakatsu walking by himself on the other side of
the street. The blond wasn't really watching where he was going. His head was
down and his hands were stuffed in his jacket pockets. He looked unhappy. It
was an expression Kagurazaka had never really seen before.
"Alright, kids, I'm ready to head home," his mother startled him.
He glanced over at his mother who smiled warmly. "Hey Mom, do you mind if you
go home without me. I just saw one of my friends."
"Sure, Makoto. Go have some fun. I'll make dinner and get your sister in bed,"
She smiled gently. She was more than glad to give her son a chance to have some
fun with his friends. He did to much for her and helped so much at home.
"Thanks, Mom. I'll see you at home." He grinned at her and took off across the
street. He ran until he caught up with Nakatsu. "Hey, Blondie!" He chuckled
when the blond jumped and spun around to face him with a look of astonishment.
"Zakie, what the hell are you doing here?" Nakatsu blurted before he could stop
himself.
Kagurazaka smirked at the other boy. "I was out shopping with my family."
"Shouldn't you be with them?" The blond asked curiously.
"Nah, they're done. It's cool. Where were you going?" The high jumper inquired.
Nakatsu glanced down the street, mulling over whether he wanted to tell
Kagurazaka or not. If he did the other boy would probably want to come with
him. He found he really didn't mind that idea. He was feeling home sick and a
little down beat. He could use some company. "I was going out to eat. There's a
place near here that serves food that reminds me of home. Wanna come?"
The high jumper looked pleased he'd been invited rather than having to force
his company on Nakatsu. "Yeah."
"You better pay for yourself though. I only have enough to pay for myself," The
blond warned him.
"Alright."
The two walked in silence until they got to the restaurant. Kagurazaka read the
sign as they passed it that proclaimed the place was called Teppan Okonomiyaki.
Nakatsu led him in and took him back to his favorite table in the corner.
Kagurazaka was a little surprised when the lady that came over seemed to know
Nakatsu by name and exactly what the blond would order. The high jumper just
ordered whatever the blond was eating. He didn't really eat out that much. He
didn't know a whole lot about the different kinds of okonomiyaki either.
Nakatsu seemed to notice right away. He smiled as he explained how to cook the
food and eat it. He looked happy now and comfortable again.
"So what had you down earlier?" Kagurazaka asked while he was waiting for his
food to brown some more.
Nakatsu looked up from his own food with a surprised expression. "You noticed?"
"Well, yeah. It was hard not to," the high jumper remarked as he scooped his
food up on his spatula.
"I guess I'm a little home sick." The blond admitted.
Kagurazaka didn't look entirely convinced. "Is that all?"
Nakatsu was actually impressed the high jumper could read he wasn't telling the
whole truth when he'd answered. "I miss Mizuki." He admitted after a minute.
"Not because I'm still in love with her. I just miss getting to hang out and
stuff. Sano's my best friend, but he's been busy lately with practice. I guess
I'm just feeling a little lonely."
Now that was a concept the high jumper was all to familiar with. He understood
that best of all. "It's alright to miss her. I know what you mean. I don't
really have a whole lot of friends. And sometimes I really miss having someone
to hang out with," Kagurazaka told him. "I get lonely too."
"Yeah, I miss my family too. I'll probably go home for spring break this year.
I haven't seen my dad since I started at Osaka. I miss him," Nakatsu replied.
"I miss my mom to of course."
"I don't get to really see my dad to much either. He's always busy with the
temple. So is my mom."
"Well, you just seem like you are really close with your dad. It's shitty that
he's so busy."
The high jumper smiled sadly. "Yeah."
They ate quietly for a few minutes.
"I came to your soccer meet on Saturday," the high jumper remarked off
handedly.
Nakatsu looked up in surprise. "I didn't see you there. I thought you didn't
show up."
"I told you I would. I like watching you play." Kagurazaka answered simply. He
wasn't going to say he liked watching the blond play because it was how he
first noticed how much passion the boy had. Nakatsu put his entire heart into
the game. That had captured the high jumper's attention the very first time
he'd watched the blond play. He hadn't really wanted Nakatsu to know he was
there at the game though. He'd worn a hat and sunglasses so he'd be harder to
spot if the blond was looking. He thought it was a little embarrassing that he
was showing up to the other boy's game like they were a real couple or
something. "I saw you score 6 goals by yourself. Congratulations on winning the
game."
"Thanks," the blond muttered in embarrassment. He was pleased and surprised
that he was pleased that the other boy had come to watch his game after all. He
felt kinda dumb for being so upset about the whole thing now.
Kagurazaka had the sudden urge to kiss the blond. He looked so damn cute all
flustered like that.
"Well, uh, I've seen you jump," Nakatsu remarked, trying to find some way to
get back on even ground with this guy. The fact that Kagurazaka liked to see
him play soccer boggled his mind a little bit.
The high jumper looked down at his food, trying to act like the boy's opinion
was just some casual remark. It didn't matter that Nakatsu could see right
through the gesture. "Yeah, and?"
"It's pretty cool. I mean, Sano looks graceful when he jumps, but you…,"
Nakatsu paused when the high jumper's head came up. He cleared his throat when
those eyes burned into him, waiting for the rest of the comment. "You look
cool. Like you're a hawk or something."
Kagurazaka couldn't help but smile and chuckle at being compared to a hawk.
They spent the rest of their time together talking about school and home.
Nakatsu seemed to perk up after a while. The high jumper looked down to check
his watch. His eyes widened when he realized they'd both been there almost an
hour and a half. Nakatsu noticed the boy checking the time and frowned a
little. He wasn't ready to go back to the dorms yet. He found he really liked
just hanging out with the high jumper. They got along better than he thought
they would. At the practice field they always seemed to argue, fight, and then
fuck. Away from there they were just two normal boys relaxing together.
"Do you have to go, Zakie?" The blond asked reluctantly.
Kagurazaka sighed. "Soon."
"Well, thanks for hanging out with me," Nakatsu said quietly. He placed the
money for payment on the table and stood up with the high jumper. Kagurazaka
set down his half of the bill before they left. The two walked out of the
restaurant and along the sidewalk a little ways. Kagurazaka unconsciously
followed the blond in the direction of Osaka High. He was not really in the
mood to go home yet. He was enjoying his time with Nakatsu. It was nice to just
talk to him. The two came to a halt and stood awkwardly near each other.
"We should do something like that more often," the high jumper remarked
casually as shoved his hands in his pockets.
Nakatsu smiled a little. "Yeah, kinda felt like we were on a date or
something."
Kagurazaka cleared his throat. "Well, anyways. I'll see yah later."
"Right, later," the blond replied a touch sadly.
The two still stood there. Each wanted to kiss the other. It felt like it was
the right thing to do, but they were in to public a place.
Nakatsu shifted nervously. "Do you wanna…I mean maybe…we could?"
"Could go somewhere together?" Kagurazaka interpreted.
"Yeah, I don't really wanna go to the dorm yet." The blond admitted.
Kagurazaka looked away. "I don't really have a lot of money."
"Well neither do I, but maybe we can split the cost."
"We're both talking about the same thing right?" The high jumper asked just to
be sure.
Nakatsu flushed brightly. "A love hotel?"
"Yeah," Kagurazaka grinned at the blond's reaction. "I think I have enough to
split the cost."
"Ok, I know a place nearby." Nakatsu replied, trying to sound casual about it.
"Lead the way."
Getting to the love hotel had been the easy part. Buying a room had been
fucking embarrassing. In manga stories they never explain how the two
characters get passed that part with any kind of dignity or grace. So Nakatsu
had just requested a room like he was negotiating a drug deal much to
Kagurazaka's amusement. The high jumper had refused to help the blond in any
way. He was enjoying letting the soccer player do all the work for once. They
made it up to the room with no more issues. Once they both got inside though it
was a different story. It was a little weird to have an actual room with a bed
in it to use. It would be their first time actually having sex on a proper bed.
That was a little weird in itself. To add to the whole surreal situation was
they weren't really sure how to proceed since it was outside their normal arena
for fucking. There was no wild dash to lock the door, rip off clothes, and just
go at it. They stood in the middle of the room looking at the bed then at each
other for a full minute before either one made a move.
"So should we…?" Nakatsu asked hesitantly.
Fuck it, Kagurazaka thought. He grabbed the blond by the back of the neck and
pulled him in for a fierce kiss. Nakatsu stumbled as he was yanked forward, but
recovered quickly. Their kisses were heated and deep in a way they normally
didn't get to try, because of the rush. There were hands in each other's hair,
gripping at shirts, or sliding down to grasp a piece of ass. It all felt so
awesome. They flexed and rubbed against each other as they made it with a
feverish abandon. It was so fucking nice to just have this without the rush.
Kagurazaka backed the blond up against the bed then pushed him over. Nakatsu
gasped then floundered for a second on the soft mattress. The high jumper
snickered at the startled look on the blond's face. The high jumper didn't give
Nakatsu time to recover before he was stripping him out of his shoes, socks,
pants, and underwear. When that was done he reached up to divest the blond of
his t-shirt (which he tossed aside with careless joy.) He took a moment to just
stare down at Nakatsu. It'd been a while since he'd gotten to just admire the
view. The blond was just as sexy as ever. He licked his lips as Nakatsu pushed
himself into a sitting position and reached for the hem of Kagurazaka's shirt.
Just as quickly, the blond had the other boy freed of his clothing and he took
the chance to really get a good look.
Everything always happened so fast that Nakatsu had never really gotten to stop
and really get a whole body view of the high jumper. The guy was tall, broad
shouldered, taper waisted, lean muscled, and thin. He was all long, graceful
limbs. Nakatsu decided the high jumper looked so much better without clothes.
He grinned at the thought as his gaze dropped down to the other boy's already
alert erection.
"Scoot back," Kagurazaka told him.
Nakatsu shuffled backwards until he reached the pillows. He parted his legs
instinctively as the high jumper climbed onto the bed and prowled up the
mattress until he was beside Nakatsu. He plopped down onto his side much to the
blond's surprise. He rolled to face the high jumper when the boy grabbed his
waist to pull him over. This was a first. The two just stared at each other for
a moment before they were suddenly kissing again. Kagurazaka reached down to
wrap his hand around the blond's cock and began to pump. He grinned as he
swallowed up the gasp he received. He used his free hand to grab Nakatsu's hand
and fold the boy's fingers around his cock in return. The blond's hand lay
still for a moment. Nakatsu was unsure how to proceed. He hadn't ever given
anyone a hand job. Kagurazaka directed him for a moment by adjusting his grip
and guiding his hand up and down. Once Nakatsu had the motion Kagurazaka let go
to concentrate on what he was doing. They stayed like that for a few minutes
jacking each other off in long, smooth strokes. Pretty soon it wasn't enough
though.
Kagurazaka reached over to the bedside table. He pulled open the drawer and was
glad to see the hotel had equipped the place with a bottle of lube. He eyed the
condoms for a moment then ignored them. They hadn't used them so far. Why
bother now? He continued to pump the blond's erection as he reached between his
legs to probe at the boy's hole. Nakatsu's grunted as the first finger slid in.
The first intrusion was always a bit of a strange feeling even after the
several times they'd fucked. Kagurazaka prepped the blond slowly, taking the
time to drive Nakatsu crazy by rubbing over his sweet spot until the blond was
practically begging for more.
When the high jumper deemed Nakatsu ready he pulled out his fingers, took his
hand off the blond's cock, and rolled onto his back. He smeared some lube onto
his cock when Nakatsu let go. He looked over at the blond and grinned. "Get
on."
"What?"
"I said 'get on.' I want you to ride me." Kagurazaka replied evenly.
Nakatsu's cheeks flamed as realized what the boy was asking for. "No way."
"I'm not doing anything until you get on. I'll lay here until our time's up on
the room," the high jumper said arrogantly.
Nakatsu glared at him as he opened and shut his mouth like a fish out of water.
He wanted to be fucked so badly at this point that it was like a physical ache.
But he didn't know if he could do what Kagurazaka was asking. He'd never tried.
It had always looked awkward in magazines. He chewed his lip as he decided what
to do. He watched Kagurazaka reach down and begin to play with himself. That
just irritated the blond further. He wasn't gonna let the asshole get off
without him getting some satisfaction. He growled as he sat up and slung his
leg over the high jumper's hip. Kagurazaka held his cock steady as Nakatsu got
into position. He guided the blond down with one hand on his hip.
Nakatsu bit his lip as he sank down onto the cock below him. It felt different
and weird being penetrated from this angle. He took in the high jumper's length
slow as his body adjusted to the intrusion. Kagurazaka groaned heavy, gripping
the blond's hips, as Nakatsu continued taking him in until he was filled to the
hilt. The blond paused there, knelt over Kagurazaka's lap. He wasn't quite sure
how to proceed. The high jumper grinned and helped the blond lean over until he
was propped on his hands. He lifted the blond's hips up then pushed him back
down.
"Like that. Go as fast or slow as you want," Kagurazka breathed as the blond
lifted off his again.
They fell into a slow tempo at first as Nakatsu got used to being the one in
control of the pace. He moaned when the high jumper thrust up to meet his
downward motion. They moved together steady and increasingly faster as their
lust heated up. Nakatsu found he actually kind of liked being the one on top.
He leaned forward until he found the angle where Kagurazaka's cock struck his
sweet spot perfectly. He was grateful to the hands that helped him hold that
position. Kagurazaka pushed himself up into a sitting position as he could kiss
the blond and trail kisses down his neck. Nakatsu actually whimpered from the
soft touch of those lips though he'd never admit that he did. The blond buried
his fingers in the high jumper's hair as he continued to move, up and
down—faster. He tilted his head back with a yelp when the cock inside him
struck his sweet spot so hard he thought he saw stars. He gasped as teeth bit
into his throat and sucked hard.
"Vampire," he spat and was met with only a dark chuckle.
Their hips moved in unison. Long fingered hands gripped pale hips until they
bruised. Nakatsu didn't notice. He was completely focused on his building
orgasm to care. His fingers scraped down the high jumper's scalp, making him
moan, before digging into the flesh of his shoulders. Climax was a heartbeat
away and yet just out of reach. It was driving them wild. Their mouths met in a
clash of lips, teeth, and tongue as they rocked together. Then suddenly they
were there. They moaned into each other's mouth as they came hard, gripping
hips and shoulders, until their strength gave out. They toppled over in a
tangled mess of limbs. They laid together panting as they trembled with the
after tingles of orgasm.
"Doing it in a bed is a lot nicer," Nakatsu remarked, breaking the silence.
Kagurazaka sighed. "Definitely a lot easier on my back."
Nakatsu glanced over at the clock. "Shit!" He sat up with a jerk. "I'm gonna be
late for curfew!"
"Curfew?"
"Yeah, we have to be back to the dorms by 9pm." He scrambled out of bed and
raced together his clothes.
"What about showering?" The high jumper asked as he slowly got to his feet.
That orgasm had wiped him out. He was ready to go to bed. He wasn't looking
forward to walking back home.
"I don't have time. I'll shower when I get back." Nakatsu replied, yanking on
his underwear and pants.
Kagurazaka shook his head and grinned as he began to get dressed too. "You're
R.A.'s gonna give you hell going back like that."
Nakatsu paused to check his appearance in the mirror. He blinked in surprise
when he got a good look at himself. His hair was a completely mess. There was a
large bite mark on his throat that he was never gonna be able to cover up even
with a school uniform. It was to high up. And his clothes looked like he'd
slept in them. He looked like an advertisement for 'just fucked' appearance.
"Oh my God. Did you have to bite me there?" He moaned in distress.
"Relax. It looks good on you." The high jumper smirked as he tugged on his
shirt.
"I should punch for that," the blond growled.
Kagurazaka grabbed him and kissed him rough. "How about that instead?"
"I gotta go." Nakatsu murmured against the boy's lips.
"I'll see you in a few days." The high jumper said.
They exchanged another quick, deep kiss before Nakatsu rushed out the door.
Kagurazaka watched him leave with a smile. It was a little weird to be the one
watching the blond go for once. He tugged on his shoes, fixed his hair, and
smoothed out his shirt. He checked how he looked in the mirror. A little
rumbled but not bad. He'd be able to get past his parents at least, if he was
fast. He walked out and the shut the door with something close to reverence.
They were definitely coming back there again.
"You're late, Nakatsu!" Sekime barked at the blond as skidded through the front
doors of the dorm. He had become the new R.A. when Nanba graduated. They had
all voted that he was the most responsible to fill the role. Sometimes though
he took the job entirely to serious for the blond's liking.
Nakatsu stopped and bent over double with his hands on his knees to catch his
breath. "I know!" He gasped. "Sorry!"
Sekime crossed his arms and scowled. "What the hell were you doing?"
"Hanging out with a friend," Nakatsu replied, straightening up.
The other boy's eyes dropped to his neck. One eyebrow quirked up followed by a
leering grin. "Oh, that kind of friend. When did that happen?"
Nakatsu slapped his hand over the bite mark on his throat. He'd forgotten all
about it. He glared at the other boy. "None of your business."
"Fine, whatever." Sekime frowned. "Just get into your room so I can mark
everyone as being present."
"Alright! Relax," The blond snapped before stomping off down the hall.
"And take a shower!" Sekime shouted after him.
Nakatsu flipped him off.
***** Chapter 7 *****
Kagurazaka stayed away from Osaka for a few days again after the last time he
saw Nakatsu. The whole love hotel thing had been awesome. The eating out at
dinner together had been pretty good too. What freaked him out was Nakatsu
saying it had been like a date. That made him think that maybe the blond was
starting to mistake their relationship for something other than it was, despite
having made himself clear in the beginning. Whatever they had together was for
sexual gratification only. He didn't date guys. He'd only ever really dated one
girl. That was beside the point. He and dating didn't work. He didn't want it
to work; especially not with a guy.
Kagurazaka knew they were getting to involved with each other. They had gone
from sex pals to friends in only a matter of days. He was afraid that somehow
their friendship would move into the lover's stage. He was trying desperately
to avoid that situation. The really bad part was he had become to emotionally
invested himself. That didn't help when he was trying to keep feelings out of
their arrangement. It was really hard not to want something more with Nakatsu
though. He was so honest about his feelings even when he was trying not to be.
He gave 100 percent of himself every time he did something. How could
Kagurazaka not admire, desire, and lo-no not going there!
So he stayed away from Osaka for a few days trying to sort out everything going
on inside his head. He needed to fit Nakatsu back into the box in his mind
labeled "sex friend". It was just a lot harder to do than he thought. It was
hard to stay away too, because just thinking about the blond made him horny. It
was like a constant itch he couldn't really scratch. Jerking off was not
satisfying anymore. It just made him want Nakatsu more. The whole situation was
making him grouchy and frustrated. He hated being sexually frustrated.
He dropped his head dramatically onto his school desk with an annoyed sigh.
"Are you feeling ill, Mr. Kagurazaka?" the teacher's voice brought his head
back up in an instant.
"No, sir," he answered.
"Then perhaps you'd like to pay attention to my lecture. Your sighs and
irritability are making it hard for the rest of the class to concentrate. If
you are that bored I could always send you out to stand in the hall and count
floor tiles," the teacher said impatiently.
Kagurazaka gritted his teeth. "Sorry. I'll do my best to listen, sir."
"Good. Now, where was I…"
That was it. He had to go to Osaka after school. This crap was beginning to
affect everything he was doing lately. He needed to get laid if only to settle
his nerves.
/
In the days after the love hotel incident, Nakatsu had been feeling like he was
in a constant state of anticipation and embarrassment. Part of him just
couldn't believe he had been that bold in suggesting the hotel in the first
place. He was absolutely amazed that he'd ridden the high jumper's cock like
that. Man, just thinking of himself doing that made his cheeks flame up. He
always seemed to lose his senses when he was with Kagurazaka. Sex with the guy
seemed to render his higher brain functions momentarily useless. He thought of
how their whole sexual agreement had started and couldn't believe he'd gotten
himself into this situation. Sure he was a rash person. He tended to leap into
things without really thinking about the consequences at times. He couldn't
really wrap his brain around why it had all started.
After the love hotel he thought maybe they were getting a lot closer than they
had meant to. He wasn't really upset by it. Surprised was a better word for it.
The thought of actually dating Kagurazaka though made him kinda happy. He
wondered if the high jumper would be willing to change their arrangement into
something a little more permanent and meaningful. He doubted it. Zak had been
pretty clear about not wanting anything other than a sex friend. Nakatsu
thought maybe they had already moved past that part, whether it was intentional
or not.
All Nakatsu really knew and understood was that he wanted to see Zak more. He
wanted to really get to know the high jumper better. He wanted to find out what
made Zak feel good. So far their sexual encounters had been fairly one sided.
He wanted more now. He found himself wanting to fuck the high jumper. He wanted
to know what it felt like to be inside someone. He fantasized about getting to
see, and hear, how Zak would react if their roles were reversed. Would the high
jumper let him though?
He tapped his fingers on his desk. It might take some careful planning on his
part to pull this off. He'd probably have to catch the high jumper off guard.
Now that he decided he wanted to fuck Zak though he wasn't gonna try to make it
happen. It wasn't fair that he always had to play bitch. He wanted to
experience sex as a top for once. He was gonna get it too. He felt a slow smile
creep across his face.
"Hey, you better pay attention," Sano hissed from the next desk over making the
blond jump.
"What?" He blinked to focus back in on the class.
Sano gave him a deadpan look. "This stuff's gonna be on the final test. Stop
day dreaming, idiot."
"I'm not an idiot." Nakatsu whispered fiercely.
"Then stop thinking with your dick and take some notes," the black haired boy
snapped.
"Is there something you two need to discuss?" The teacher interrupted before
Nakatsu could come up with a witty reply.
"No, sir!" they both answered promptly.
"Good, now when you merge these two…"
Nakatsu dropped his chin into the palm of his hand. He really hoped Kagurazaka
showed up after his soccer practice this afternoon. He was determined to get
what he wanted the next time they were together.
/
Nakatsu felt relief when he caught sight of Kagurazaka walking across the field
to meet him at the end of his soccer practice. He was afraid the high jumper
wouldn't come. He'd been away longer than usual. They greeted each other a bit
awkwardly. Both were aware of the strong tug of lust that was making them both
antsy. The others just couldn't leave fast enough. Neither one touched each
other until they were inside the locker room with the door safely locked. They
didn't even make it away from the door before Nakatsu grabbed the high jumper
and pulled him into a biting kiss. Kagurazaka blinked in surprise at the
blond's forwardness. Usually Nakatsu waited for him to make the first move. He
wasn't entirely upset by the new development. In fact, it heightened his
arousal.
Their kisses got fiercer as the sexual tension and want started to get thicker
between them. Nakatsu's hands were suddenly on the high jumper's shirt, ripping
it up and off. Kagurazaka went for Nakatsu's pants, but the blond shoved his
hand away. The high jumper frowned in disbelief. Something was different about
Nakatsu today. He wasn't acting the normal semi-awkward self that Kagurazaka
was used too. He decided not to say anything though. He wanted to see how far
the blond would go. He didn't think Nakatsu really had the guts to do much more
than he was at the moment.
He jerked in surprise when Nakatsu slipped his hands down the back of his jeans
and squeezed his ass. Of course, he thought, I could be wrong about Nakatsu's
bravery. He grabbed Nakatsu's wrists and pulled Nakatsu's hands out of the back
of his jeans. He gave the blond a flat look. "So now you wanna try to do me?"
The high jumper scoffed.
"Try?" Nakatsu smirked before grabbing the other boy. He spun Kagurazaka around
and shoved him face first against the locker room door. He grabbed the high
jumper's wrists, pinning them against the door so he couldn't move. He ground
his erection into the cleft of the high jumper's ass. "I am gonna do you."
Kagurazaka moaned through gritted teeth in spite of himself. It had been a
while since he'd played uke. It wasn't exactly a position he preferred, but he
supposed it was only fair to let Nakatsu try. So far it had been him doing all
the taking. He was interested to see how the blond would handle this on the
first time around. He could always refuse and turn the tables if he didn't
enjoy it. He relaxed into Nakatsu's grip and decided to give up the fight.
"Ok," the high jumper consented. "Show me how well you think you can do."
As soon as Nakatsu felt the high jumper surrender he loosened his grip on the
boy's wrists. He was nervous. He could admit that. He'd never really explored
another person's body. So far he'd only been the receiver. He wanted to learn
what it felt like to touch, taste, and take another person. He would just take
it slow and discover for himself how to make Kagurazaka feel good. He just
hoped the high jumper would let him.
Nakatsu started at the high jumper's waist line, dragging his fingers upwards,
and smirked as smooth muscles tensed beneath his caresses. He slid his hands
over every inch of Kagurazaka's bare chest so he could learn the contours. He
listened to the other boy's steadily increasing breaths and felt the pounding
of Kagurazaka's heart beneath his fingers. He admired how warm and smooth the
high jumper's skin was beneath his hands. He wandered across the high jumper's
nipples then stopped to pay closer attention to them.
Kagurazaka jerked, sucking in a harsh breath, as his nipples were tweaked,
rubbed, and pinched. Each tiny move seemed to transfer down into his cock like
a livewire. God, it felt good, but he was getting impatient. Before he could
complain those teasing hands were gone. They relocated to his pants line. He
was more than happy to have his pants and underwear yanked down to be kicked
aside. Nakatsu's hands were back to run over the hard muscles of his thighs
then trail upwards on the insides against sensitive skin. The high jumper
groaned as his body trembled at the pleasure that wound its way through him.
His cock was already hard and begging for attention just from the simple
touches.
Nakatsu paused just an inch away from Kagurazaka's cock. It was the next step
in foreplay (or at least as far as he knew. Zak always seemed to follow these
same steps in the build up towards having sex.). He stopped to collect himself
and think. He wanted to get Kagurazaka really turned on quickly. He knew what
worked for him, but would it work for the high jumper too. He'd just have to
experiment.
He took his right hand away from the leg it rested on and brought it to his
mouth. He swiped his tongue liberally over the palm of his hand then reached
back around to Kagurazaka's front. When his hand closed around the high
jumper's cock for the first time it was like an electric jolt for the both of
them. Kagurazaka's hips jerked forward as he moaned softly. Nakatsu's hand slid
easily down the length, spreading the make shift lubrication. Kagurazaka's head
fell forward to rest against the door as his hands clenched into fists. Holy
shit, he hadn't expected it to feel that damn good. Nakatsu's hand stroked over
his cock in firm, even strokes like he was seeking something out. Kagurazaka
understood an instant later when the blond's hand rubbed over the most
sensitive spot on his cock. The high jumper moaned heatedly as his body
quivered. The blond's hand zoned in on that spot just on the underside of the
cock head to work it mercilessly. Kagurazaka felt like his insides were on fire
and his knees were turning to mush. No one had ever taken the time to really
touch him like this. His hips rolled and flexed, trying to create more
delicious friction.
The hand that had lain quiet on the top of the high jumper's thigh rose up to
take his chin and turn his head to the side. Nakatsu leaned in to kiss him,
slow and searching. Kagurazaka shivered. The kiss was just as passionate as any
other they'd shared but it wasn't rough. It was a smooth glide of lips and
tongue with out either trying to dominate. The kiss and the perfect attention
paid to his cock had his orgasm building faster than he'd expected. He pulled
his mouth away to pant for breath as that hand drove him quickly towards
climax.
Nakatsu reached over to snag the bottle of lube out of his jacket draped on the
bench and fumbled it open. He struggled to coat his fingers one handedly with
little success. He didn't realize how hard it was to try to multi-task all of
this at once. How did Kagurazaka do it so easily? Finally, he was forced to
take his hand away from the high jumper's cock with an irritated growl. He
earned a frustrated snarl from Kagurazaka as he slathered lube across his
fingers. His hand was back on the high jumper's length a moment later. He
hesitated half a second before pressing one finger inside of Kagurazaka's tight
body. The high jumper groaned breathlessly as another finger joined the first.
Fuck, that felt amazing. He wet his lips as the blond began to tentatively
thrust his fingers and search for his sweet spot.
"A little higher," Kagurazaka gasped. He yelped when Nakatsu found it a second
later. Ecstasy zinged down his nerves to his cock, making his hips jerk
spastically.
Nakatsu smiled in satisfaction as the high jumper began to gasp and moan with
every thrust and slide of his hands. He felt like an orchestrator, playing the
perfect instrument, and receiving the most beautiful music for his efforts.
Sweat glistened on Kagurazaka's skin as his body spiraled closer to release.
Every part of him was focused on those hands that were steadily driving him
crazy. Nakatsu leaned down to bite into the soft skin of the high jumper's
neck. He sucked and then swiped his tongue across the heated skin, soothing
away the pain. It was that final act that sent the high jumper over the edge.
He came with a muffled shout. His head fell back against Nakatsu's shoulder as
his body arched. His hips flexed with the force of his orgasm. Cum splattered
over the door and down Nakatsu's hand—warm and wet.
"Holy shit," he groaned, as his body continued to quiver.
Nakatsu's fingers curled inside him over that sweet spot, making him whimper as
his sensitive body jerked from the almost overwhelming sensation. "Felt good?"
Nakatsu asked smugly.
The high jumper growled. "Shut up."
"God, that was hot," Nakatsu sighed against Kagurazaka's throat. He rubbed his
now aching cock against the high jumper's hip. He wanted to cum now too.
Watching the high jumper get off had been incredibly arousing. No wonder the
guy liked watching him get off all the time. It was a proud moment to know he'd
made the person he liked cum for him. "I wanna fuck you," he moaned.
"Not ready," Kagurazaka sighed. "Add another finger and stretch me. Like this…"
He demonstrated in the air with his own hand.
Nakatsu did as he was told. The high jumper grunted at the burning sensation of
another finger being added and then being stretched open. The occasional rub
over his sweet spot was making his cock wake back up slowly. Nakatsu's
insistent humping against his hip had Kagurazaka smiling in sympathy.
"That's enough," he relented. "Go ahead."
Nakatsu sighed in relief. He didn't know how much longer he could take it.
Nakatsu gripped the other boy's waist as he lined up his cock against that
small opening that was supposed to accept him. For a moment, he wondered if he
really would fit in there. Kagurazaka reached back to grab his hip and pull him
forward impatiently. He took the hint. A deep breath was drawn before he
started to thrust forward. His breath caught as he began to sink inside of the
high jumper's body. The tight heat and the slow give of the high jumper's body
around his cock was like nothing he'd ever imagined. Kagurazaka whimpered as he
was filled by Nakatsu's hard length. The blond felt so much bigger inside him.
He could feel every inch being taken inside himself. It'd been months since
he'd last felt this. He'd forgotten the burn of the first few moments.
When Nakatsu's entire length was seated within the high jumper, he went still
for a few seconds. He closed his eyes, feeling and taking in the sensations
surrounding his cock. He'd never felt anything like it before. He had nothing
to compare it too. The connected feeling he had with Kagurazaka in that moment
was incredible. He rubbed his hand up and down the high jumper's sides to help
steady the shaking boy. Finally, he couldn't stay still any longer. Instinct
was telling him that he needed to move NOW. He drew back out halfway before
surging back in. The answering moan he received sent shivers down his spin. He
took up a slow, steady pace just trying to feel and memorize every amazing
second.
Kagurazaka let himself fall forward against the door once more. He shifted his
hips until Nakatsu's cock struck his sweet spot, making him cry out. He let his
body fall into sync with Nakatsu. He rocked back into the blond as he braced
himself up with his hands. He couldn't stop the moans or whimpers that escaped
him as the blond fucked him. It felt so different with Nakatsu than with anyone
the high jumper had been with previously. Maybe because at this pace he could
truly feel every slid and thrust that blond made. Or perhaps it was how Nakatsu
held him, caressed him, and kissed every inch of skin within reach of his
mouth. He felt truly connected to the boy fucking him with such sweet, long
thrusts.
The two moved seamlessly together. Climax built inside them one thrust at a
time until it was looming inside them, driving them on faster yet. Nakatsu's
hands continued to caress over smooth skin, occasionally stopping to tweak a
nipple. He forgot all about stroking the high jumper's dick in the passion of
everything he was feeling. Kagurazaka certainly wasn't complaining. He just
kept rocking his hips so that every thrust jabbed his sweet spot hard enough to
make him think he was seeing stars. Pleasure stormed through them in tides and
left them breathless. The high jumper's hand drifted to his cock, needing
release and unable to wait any longer for it. Behind him, the blond's pace
picked up and his hands gripped Zak's hips hard. Their bodies quaked as their
orgasms loomed just out of reach, and they strove for it desperately. It
crashed over them suddenly, gripping them in heady throes of ecstasy.
Nakatsu came aware of himself again after what felt like several long surreal
moments that could have been seconds or hours. He wasn't quite sure. He was
surprised to find his face pressed against Kagurazaka's shoulder. He
straightened up, slipped his cock free of the high jumper, before gently
turning the other boy around to face him. Kagurazaka had a glazed, sated look
on his face that he'd never seen before. The ever present scowl was completely
gone. In its place was a strange, barely there smile. His normally spiked hair
was falling into his eyes. He looked softer and happier. The effect made him
look incredibly handsome. It was totally different from the normal blissed out
look Nakatsu was used to seeing. It was a much improved version.
He couldn't resist the urge to kiss the high jumper. His hand came up to cup
the high jumper's jaw as he leaned in closer. Their lips met in a lazy, deep
kiss. It left Kagurazaka feeling vulnerable and broken open. There was none of
the previous fury from the beginning in it. That did not make it any less knee
weakening. They broke apart after a moment to catch their breath only to meet
back together. Hands roamed freely over cooling, sweaty skin. Neither cared
much about the mess that lingered on them. Touching and tasting seemed more
important. At length, they pulled apart and were surprised to find how closely
entwined they'd become.
"Shit," Kagurazaka whispered as he detached himself. When had his body begun to
betray him so thoroughly? When had these feelings begun to consume him? Nakatsu
didn't stop the high jumper as he ducked out from under his arms. It was crazy
how quickly the feelings between them were beginning to overtake them; so
damned frightening in their intensity. It wasn't supposed to be like that. But
could they even try to stop it now that it seemed to have caught hold of them?
"So I guess I didn't do so badly," Nakatsu joked, trying to shove down the
emotions threatening to overwhelm him.
Kagurazaka couldn't stop the sudden chuckle that escaped him. "Not to bad."
Fuck, that had been the best uke experience he'd ever had. He wondered what it
was that it so much better. He realized it was simply that it was Nakatsu. His
slower, gentler style had been a million times hotter and more amazing than the
near violent fucks he'd endured. Who knew he was such a sucker for slow
fucking?
"C'mon, let's shower and get out of here before it gets any later," he said,
grabbing Nakatsu's hand and pulling him into the nearest shower stall.
The blond blinked owlishly at him. "We've never showered together before."
"Well, it'll save time," the high jumper stated, brushing it off because he did
not want to examine his own actions any further. He'd had enough of new
emotions today. He turned on the shower and drowned out his thoughts in the
spray.
/
Umeda walked towards his bus stop by way of the Osaka High athletic field. It
wasn't his normal route, but curiosity had changed his course. He had a pretty
strong feeling Nakatsu would be meeting his FWB (friend with benefits) today.
He wanted to catch a glimpse of the couple for himself. Sure it was a little
childish of him to be snooping on teenagers, but he didn't run into that many
gay students in Osaka High. He got a few love letters and confessions from the
few who hid in the crowd of the student body. He even got some from the few
students who were just confused about their sexuality. It was all quite
flattering. That was far different than knowing one of the kids you counseled
was out in the locker room banging his fuck buddy. So yeah, he wanted a peek.
What he wasn't expecting was to find Sano guarding the area. On hind sight, he
really should have expected it. The blond couldn't keep anything from Sano.
They friendship was to close to hide something like this for long. It amused
him though that Sano was going to such lengths to protect his friend's privacy.
He smiled when Sano caught sight of him. The high jumper straightened up and
crossed his arms in a look of defiance. Umeda couldn't resist the urge to tease
him a little.
"Sano, why are you still out here? Shouldn't you be back in the dorms by now?
It's almost curfew," Umeda remarked casually as he strode up to the boy. He
shifted like he was going to look around the corner of the stands. He bit his
lip to hide his smile when Sano shifted with him to block his view.
"I felt like getting some air," Sano replied curtly.
Umeda dug in his pocket to pull out his pack of smokes. He shook one out,
placed it between his lips, and lighted it up. He stood there smoking for a
moment before finally speaking again. "You know I find it admirable that you'd
stand out doing guard duty for your friend?"
"What?" Sano's eyes widened in shock.
"Nakatsu told me all about it," Umeda answered simply. He wasn't really
breaking confidentiality policies if the other party was already privy to the
information. It was like having someone on your third party information
release.
Sano's defensive posture immediately relaxed a little. "When did he tell you?"
"Pretty much at the start. Guess he figured it'd be easy to talk to someone who
wouldn't judge since I'm gay too."
"Makes sense I guess," Sano remarked. "So why are you out here then?"
"Curiosity. I also hoped to have a chat with Kagurazaka," Umeda answered,
blowing out a puff of smoke.
"Me too," Sano growled, looking irritable. "They're being reckless."
"That's part of being a teenager. Enjoy it while you can use that as an
excuse," Umeda grinned.
They both froze when they heard the locker room door open. They peeked around
the corner to see both boys walking out. The two exchanged brief good byes
before Nakatsu stepped closer for a kiss. Even from here Umeda could see the
kiss was passionate and deep, full of unsaid words and unspoken meanings. Umeda
narrowed his eyes at the amount of emotion he could see hiding in Nakatsu's
actions. The boy really was being reckless. He was in love whether he realized
it or not. Kagurazaka seemed more emotionally involved than Nakatsu had
originally told him. They were a lot closer than he'd thought. The two boys
broke apart and stepped away. Umeda and Sano ducked back around the corner, but
neither moved. The doctor raised one eyebrow questioningly at Sano as if to
inquire about his remaining presence. Sano shrugged grumpily.
Nakatsu turned the corner and skidded to a halt with a loud curse. He stared at
the both of them wide eyed. "What the hell-?"
Umeda chuckled at the comical look on the blond's face. "I'm merely here out of
curiosity. Sano has been standing guard for you. I think you owe him a thank
you."
The boys exchanged quick glances and flushed bright red.
"Thanks," Nakatsu muttered.
"Now then, Nakatsu, you haven't exactly been very conscious of the possibility
that you could get caught. I think you both should find somewhere else to meet
up. I'm sure Sano would appreciate not having to stand out here watching your
back. Well, not really your back, but-." Umeda said.
"I get it!" Nakatsu yelped in embarrassment.
"Ok, good. Now I need to go catch my bus and embarrass your fuck friend too,"
Umeda strode away, flicking the butt of his cigarette away.
"Wait, what!" Nakatsu spun around in horror. "Don't you dare say anything to
him!"
Umeda laughed and waved dismissively.
Nakatsu looked back in unmasked terror at Sano. "He wouldn't really…would he?"
Sano shrugged and began to walk away. He'd done his job here. Nakatsu stood
there another moment before groaning worriedly. He hurried after Sano, not
wanting to be left behind. He could only hope Umeda had been joking about
talking to Kagurazaka. He wondered if he and Sano were ever gonna talk about
this. He doubted it. Sano probably wanted to pretend this never happened. Still
he was grateful his friend had been watching out for him. He glanced over at
Sano and smiled. He really had some good friends.
/
Umeda got to the bus stop and was pleased to find that Kagurazaka was there
waiting too. He ambled over before sliding his hands into his coat pockets. He
watched the high jumper eye him up suspiciously. He caught the boy's eye and
smiled politely.
"Haven't I seen you somewhere?" Kagurazaka finally asked, eyes narrowing
suspiciously.
"Probably. I'm one of the school doctors at Osaka High. I know who you are," he
replied evenly.
"Oh really?"
"Um hum. Kagurazaka Makoto. Your Sano's jump rival. I've seen you jump. Very
powerful, but you're gonna over stress your joints that way." He said casually.
The high jumper scowled. "Doesn't matter as long as I win."
"You won't be saying that when you're forty and can't even make love because
you have arthritis in your knees and back," Umeda smirked.
"What do you care!" Kagurazaka barked angrily, flushing in embarrassment.
"I've somewhat of an interest in you," Umeda answered. The high jumper looked
horrified for a moment. "Oh not like that. Cut it out. You're far to young for
me."
Kagurazaka scowled again and crossed his arms. "What then?"
"Well, it's like this. I'm very protective of my students. I happen to know
you're in a rather intimate relationship with one of the boys I counsel," Umeda
said simply.
"Fuck, is there no one he hasn't told?" The high jumper grumbled.
"Actually, he's kept pretty tight lipped about it. He can't help that his
expressions are an open book." The doctor replied teasingly.
"Again, why do you really care?" Kagurazaka growled irritably.
"I don't want you getting any further involved with him if you have no interest
besides just being sex buddies. Nakatsu's to emotional. Whether you realize it
or not he'd already to emotionally involved with you. So if you don't want that
from him; end it. Unrequited love hurts a lot. It's not fair for him to be
strung along," The doctor said seriously, bringing the full weight of his amber
eyed glare down on the boy.
Kagurazaka couldn't hold the older man's gaze for long. It was to knowing, to
piercing. He looked away and hunched his shoulders defensively. "I'm not trying
to make him fall for me."
"Maybe you aren't, but he is. You're his first everything. Of course he's going
to be very attached to you."
"We're friends now. I don't want to hurt him," the high jumper admitted
quietly. He was a little surprised he was being this honest with a virtual
stranger. But this doctor seemed to truly care about Nakatsu.
"Then think about what you want from him carefully. If you continue on this way
you will hurt him," Umeda advised gently.
"Yeah, I know," Kagurazaka sighed. He turned and started to walk away.
"Where are you going? The bus will be here soon."
"I'll walk home. I need to think."
"Be careful. Oh, and I told Nakatsu to find somewhere else for you
extracurricular activities. Someone else might see you guys besides me."
Kagurazaka stopped and stared back at the doctor in surprise. Umeda just
smiled. "Whatever." The high jumper snapped then hurried off before Umeda could
say anything else.
"Silly kids," Umeda muttered as he watched the boy walk away. He hoped things
worked out for both their sakes. First love was always rough.
***** Chapter 8 *****
Kagurazaka had been mulling over an idea for about a week now. Golden week was
starting today. Nakatsu had told him that he was staying at Osaka during it.
The blond had plans to go home to visit his family, but they had decided to
take something like a honeymoon vacation to Hawaii. Nakatsu had nowhere else to
really go so he opted to stay. Zak's family had also decided to go on vacation.
Not all together though. His sister Kiyomi was staying at his grandparents
while his parents went on vacation to Sapporo. His other sister was going to a
weeklong camp for the track team. He had decided to stay home. Soon as he knew
about everyone leaving he'd had a rather brilliant idea. He wanted to ask
Nakatsu to stay with him for the week.
There were several problems to this idea though. The first was that if he did
ask Nakatsu might get the wrong idea and really think they were dating. In a
way the idea wasn't bad, but he'd already promised himself he would never date
men. Just fuck them. The second was by thinking up this idea he realized that
he was putting his feelings in danger of being noticed. As much as he tried to
hide them from himself it would be even harder with Nakatsu there. He knew that
he was getting in over his head. He wasn't ready to stop though. That was an
issue. Yet, he couldn't stop himself from wanting the simple desire of waking
up next to the blond in the morning. He wanted to know what it was like to
actually sleep next to a lover. He wanted to pretend that maybe even for a week
he could have something more with Nakatsu. It would be a nice dream he could
look back on later with fondness.
He was sitting next to the blond on the Osaka bleachers even now still debating
on the matter. He knew by Nakatsu's worried expression that he'd been silent to
long.
"What's up with you today?" the blond finally blurted.
Zak shrugged. "I've had something on my mind."
"What exactly?"
There was another long pause. Finally, Zak thought 'fuck it.' "Do you wanna
stay at my place for Golden week?"
"You're inviting me over to your place?" Nakatsu asked, totally shocked by the
mere prospect.
"I just said that, didn't I?" Zak rolled his eyes.
Nakatsu was quiet for a moment. "What about your family?"
"They all went on vacation for golden week."
"And you stayed behind?"
Zak shrugged. "I figured I had better things to do with a whole week to
myself."
Nakatsu flushed bright red at the implications.
"You didn't go home for golden week." Zak pointed out.
"Yeah I know."
"Then everything worked perfectly. We have all week together," Zak grinned, the
smile a mix of dark lust and mischievousness. "You can stay over if you want."
Nakatsu's eyes widened in surprise; he was pretty sure if they kept doing that
they were gonna fall out of his head. Was this guy trying to give him a heart
attack from constant astonishment? He thought about what Zak had offered.
Really, the prospect was incredibly tempting. It was like being offered a week
of fucking somewhere they could fully enjoy themselves and take their
time—every time. He looked at the high jumper's face. He could see the tension
building the longer he waited to answer Zak's offer. It must have been
difficult for the high jumper to put himself out there like that.
"Alright." He finally answered. "I'll stay with you. Though maybe not over
night every night. I do have to come back here to study and do homework."
"Bring it with you."
"Somehow I doubt I'll even touch it when I'm at your place," Nakatsu remarked
off handedly.
Zak sniggered. "Good point. Fine. You have to stay over at least one night
though."
"Like tonight?" Nakatsu asked, suddenly a little nervous.
"If you'd like too…"
The two regarded each other quietly for a moment.
"Ok, let me go get a change of clothes." Nakatsu decided on a whim. How many
chances would he get to have something like this with Zak? He should take
advantage of it. He stood up.
"I'll be waiting right here for you," Zak replied casually.
Nakatsu nodded, before hurrying back to his dorms. He purposely did not let
himself think to much. He didn't want to psych himself out. He grabbed his book
bag, upended it over his bed so that the books spilled onto his mattress, and
shook once to make sure the whole thing was empty. He quickly dug through his
basket of clean clothes to pull out a set of clothes tomorrow. He ran into the
bathroom, gathered up his toiletries before shoving them in their bag, and
cramming that in to the back pack. He double checked to make sure he had
everything before racing back out of the dorms. He deliberately slowed down
before reaching the bleachers so he could catch him breath. He didn't want Zak
to know he'd been in that much of a hurry, or it would give away the excited
feeling trying to take wing in his stomach.
Zak was waiting with his hands stuffed in his pockets. His nervousness bled
through in the way he rocked back and forth on his heels waiting for the blond.
Nakatsu smiled, glad not to be the only one a little keyed up by the
possibilities of the week ahead. Zak noticed him a moment later. He turned his
back and began to walk away, waiting for Nakatsu to catch up. It didn't bother
the blond to much. It was just another clue that the high jumper was a little
more anxious than he let on. They walked to the bus stop and waited in silence.
Once on the bus, they chatted about where their families had gone on vacation,
about sports and whatever else trying to keep the silence from getting awkward.
They got off at an unfamiliar street corner for Nakatsu. He followed the high
jumper three blocks to a steep set of stairs that led up to a small temple. The
grounds were beautiful, surrounded by trees that blocked the city from view and
a winding garden. Kagurazaka led him around the temple to a house that was set
further back on the property. It to was small yet warm and pleasant looking. It
had a neat, orderly feel to it that spoke much about the people who worked hard
to take care of it. Kagurazaka lead him inside. They deposited their shoes at
the door before heading up a flight of stairs and down a hallway to a room at
the back left corner of the house. Kagurazaka opened the door, walked in, and
turned to watch the blond, who had paused on the threshold.
Nakatsu was a little surprised by the size of the room. It was almost as big as
his dorm room, but that was made to house two people. There was a desk under
one of the windows opposite of where he was standing. A small bookshelf was
next to it. In the adjacent corner was a low, long dresser with a TV on it.
Nakatsu turned his head to see Zak's bed in the opposite corner of the room
from the desk. He blinked in bemusement when he realized it was a double bed.
There was a night stand next to the bed and another bookshelf next to it. The
room was mostly clean, only a little messy compared to Nakatsu's own dorm room.
He could easily picture Zak sitting at the desk doing homework.
"Are you just gonna stand there?" Zak finally lost his patience.
Nakatsu grinned sheepishly and stepped through the doorway. "It's bigger than I
thought."
"I took this room after my parents moved their bedroom downstairs." Zak replied
easily. "Do you want anything to drink or eat?"
"Sure." Nakatsu never turned down free food.
"Get comfortable. Feel free to turn on the TV. I'll be right back." Zak made it
almost sound like a demand.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes as the high jumper slipped out the door and down the
steps. He moved further into the room. He set down his back pack by the desk.
He straightened when something on the desk caught his eye. Nakatsu reached down
and picked up a familiar looking magazine. He had a copy of it himself. It was
the issue with the pictures taken by Akiha of himself, Nanba, Sano, and Mizuki.
His issue looked just as dog eared as this one. It was a little funny to find
it here on Kagurazaka's desk though. He flipped through it to a page that was
marked. He smiled when he saw the picture of himself and Sano standing back to
back in black tops. He honestly thought that was the best picture of him too.
Well, if he needed real proof that Kagurazaka liked him, it was right here in
his hands.
Kagurazaka pushed open the door with his elbow as he balanced the drinks and
snacks in his hands. He set them down on his desk before glancing over to see
what Nakatsu was doing. His eyes went wide in horror when he realized what the
blond had in his hands. He jumped forward and snatched the magazine free of
Nakatsu's grasp. He yanked open a desk drawer and shoved it in. Nakatsu smiled
at him knowingly, which irritated the hell out of the high jumper.
"I guess you really liked those pictures." The blond remarked casually.
"I took the magazine from my sister. She was staring at those pictures of Sano
so much it was pissing me off," Zak replied in a tight voice. It was half true.
He had taken the magazine from his sister. Not for that reason though, despite
that being the one he'd told her.
Nakatsu's smile just broadened. "Sure. That's why it's so worn out looking,
especially that one picture of me that's marked."
"Oh shut up."
Nakatsu laughed outright, unable to stop himself. Zak shoved him irritably. The
blond stumbled back a step then glared, only half threateningly. The high
jumper rolled his eyes at him. Nakatsu grabbed him and yanked him forward into
a biting kiss. His surprised yelp was swallowed up in the blond's mouth. Just
like that the weird tension between them was gone. It had vanished under the
blaze of lust that flared to life in both of them. Mouths retreated and met in
a repeated ardent dance of lips, teeth, and tongue as questing fingers worked
to strip each other of clothes. They stumbled towards the bed. Zak tumbled over
backwards. He was surprised to find himself pinned down a moment later. He was
given no time to protest. Nakatsu's mouth was on his again as his hands roamed
over Zak's chest. The high jumper groaned deep in his throat when Nakatsu moved
his mouth to his neck to nip at the sensitive spot behind his ear. His cock
throbbed hard as that talented mouth continued to nip, suck, and kiss down his
neck. He wrenched his wrists trying to get free to no avail. Nakatsu chuckled,
more than delighted to have found such a sensitive place on the high jumper.
Zak quickly realized that Nakatsu was in the mood to take his time. He wanted
to touch and taste every part of the high jumper. Zak relaxed to allow himself
to enjoy the attention. Time drifted by in a haze of pleasure from talented
hands and a wicked mouth. Yet it almost seemed sudden when Nakatsu slipped his
fingers out of him—more than ready to move on to the best part. It was so weird
to Zak to be the one on his back taking it again. It'd been some time since
he'd really done this regularly for anyone. Once he topped the first time, he'd
lost interest in playing bottom. It just hadn't been as satisfying to him as
being the seme. He looked up at the blond positioning his cock to take Zak. He
liked giving it up for Nakatsu and that was a real first. In fact, since the
first time Nakatsu had been inside Zak, the blond had been topping more often
than the high jumper got to anymore. He frowned a little when he realized that.
Well, whatever.
"C'mon already. I'm waiting. What do you need? An invitation?" The high jumper
teased Nakatsu.
The blond rolled his eyes. "Wasn't sure if you were ready. You were spacing
out."
Kagurazaka grabbed the back of his thighs and held his legs open. "Here's your
invitation. Hurry up already." He grinned at the look of utter lust that
clouded Nakatsu's expression. The high jumper groaned when the blond thrust
into him a moment later in a smooth, slow glide. Ah, perfect. That cock felt so
right inside him. He felt filled, whole, and wanted. He dropped his head back
on to the pillow and let go of his hold on his thighs. He closed his eyes so he
could concentrate on the feel Nakatsu's cock as the boy pulled out then thrust
back in. He moaned happily, catching hold of the blond's biceps. It felt
amazing to feel the blond move over and in him. Nakatsu's strokes were slow and
achingly arousing. Nakatsu was getting really good at playing top, but the high
jumper needed more. "Hey, sit back," He pushed the blond into a kneeling
position. He scooted so his hips were cradled in Nakatsu's lap. "Now hold my
thighs and thrust harder. You can go faster, but stay in deep that way."
Nakatsu did as he was told. He amused by how bossy the high jumper was even
with a cock in his ass. He snapped his hips forward and was rewarded with a
pleased curse. Kagurazaka smacked his head off the mattress in surprised
ecstasy. Apparently, the blond was the perfect length and at the perfect angle
to hit his sweet spot square on without even having to aim for it. He opened
his eyes to see Nakatsu grin at him before he began to fuck faster and harder
just like Zak wanted.
"Holy fuck!" The high jumper moaned out breathlessly. Damn, who would have
guessed Nakatsu was just the right size for fucking him this way? God, every
thrust was perfection. He couldn't stop the moans and curses that spilled from
his mouth. He felt like he was being shocked every time the blond hit his sweet
spot. It was agonizing bliss. His whole body was singing with pleasure so
intense he was struggling just to remember to breathe. His hands found
Nakatsu's wrists and gripped tight as he writhed beneath the blond in wanton
abandon. His eyes drifted shut as he focused on the sounds of Nakatsu moving in
him, his dick slapping his stomach as the blond slammed into him, and his own
verbose noise. He reveled in the feel of that cock moving inside him over and
over, hard and fast. So damned perfect! The build to orgasm was fast and mind
blowing. He thought for the first time he might be able to cum without having
to touch his cock. He was so fucking close. He gritted his teeth as strived for
release. A few more thrusts and he was nearly wild with the need to cum. For
the first time in his life began to beg for it, needing it to desperately to
hold back anymore.
"Oh fuck, please please! Come on! I need to…Ah! Please! Anything! Just let
me…Fuck!" Kagurazaka was barely away of what was spilling past his lips.
Nakatsu's hips stuttered and lost their rhythm for a second when the high
jumper began to plead to let him cum. He'd never thought he'd ever see
Kagurazaka like this. He stared down at the high jumper as he writhed his hips
against Nakatsu's cock and his finger's dug harder into Nakatsu's wrists. The
blond swallowed hard as an intense spike of arousal urged him onwards. He
didn't think it was possible to get any harder, but watching Kagurazaka was
driving his own lust into near frenzy. He bent the high jumper's knees closer
to his chest, lifting his hips up higher and fucking harder. He watched in
amazement as Kagurazaka sucked in a harsh breath before going tense. Nakatsu
jack knifed his hips in hard one more time and then the high jumper was coming
like he was coming apart.
Kagurazaka shouted in relief as his cock spurted across his chest. He was
overwhelmed as every nerve seemed to fire at once in a symphony of ecstasy. The
world seemed to go a little dark around the edges as he came harder than he
ever had in his life. It was like flying or falling. He came down slow as his
body trembled in the aftermath of adrenaline. Nakatsu was watching him in total
fascination. He was to wrung out to even offer a snide remark. He swallowed and
groaned when the blond let go his legs to ease his hips back down. Nakatsu
leaned forward until his was propped up on his elbows on either side of the
high jumper's head. Their chests pressed together as the blond continued to
rock his hips into Zak. His thrusts had returned back to the slow languid pace
that Nakatsu so enjoyed. Each thrust sent little aftershocks of intense
pleasure zinging through the high jumper, making him pant and whimper. It was
almost to much for him to handle after such an intense orgasm. He bore it for
Nakatsu's sake. He blinked in surprise when the blond began to kiss his neck
and shoulder. It felt good as well as calming. He found himself lifting his
arms to wrap them around Nakatsu's back. He smoothed his hands over the length
of Nakatsu's back. Nakatsu moaned helplessly when Kagurazaka's hands slide down
to caress and tease his ass. Nakatsu lifted his head up so he could look into
the high jumper's eyes. The boy's eyes were still glazed from after orgasm
bliss. He looked sated and peaceful. He looked fucking beautiful. Nakatsu was
surprised he'd even just thought that. Another intense wave of desire spiraled
through him as he gazed down at the high jumper's face. His hips and thighs
trembled as his thrusts began more jagged. He was getting close. He leaned into
kiss Kagurazaka, slow and deep just like the strokes of his cock. A moment
later he came-long and intense. The high jumper drank in his helpless gasp of
completion. His hips jerked as he spilled inside Kagurazaka. It seemed to last
so long and be over so quick all at the same time. It was such a weird
contradiction. He let himself drop on top of Kagurazaka and hide his face
against the high jumper's throat.
"Damn," Nakatsu breathed. He moved to pull out, but Kagurazaka stopped him.
"Just stay still a minute," the high jumper sighed.
Nakatsu raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Aren't you uncomfortable though?"
"No, leave it in," Kagurazaka replied softly. It felt good. He understood now
why Nakatsu liked to caress and hold him when he was lying on top. It was
soothing just to touch. He sighed. Fuck, he was in to deep. He didn't push
Nakatsu away when the blond captured his lips in a languid kiss. He grunted a
little when he shifted his hips and the blond's cock slipped out of him. He
shivered as cum trickled out and on to the blanket. This guy was making him
soft. His friends had noticed how relaxed he was lately. His coach even
commented on how he smiled more easily now. He knew all of them where wondering
what was up with him. It was because of Nakatsu.
He let the blond kiss him for another few minutes before gently pushing him
back. Nakatsu flopped over onto his side as the high jumper got up. He licked
his lips as he watched Zak walk out the door with cum clinging to the backs of
his thighs. His cock gave a halfhearted twitch, but was not ready to revive
after such a long orgasm. Zak returned a moment later with a warm wet cloth in
his hand. Nakatsu blinked in surprise when the other boy wiped him off
carefully before beginning to clean himself up too. Zak tossed the wash cloth
onto the night stand before grabbing the TV remote and the tray of snacks.
"What?" He asked when he noticed the weird look Nakatsu was giving him.
"Nothing," the blond smiled. It was sweet. He wasn't about to tell Zak that
though. He had a feeling this was going to be a very good Golden week.
***** Chapter 9 *****
The sun peeked through the break in the curtains, painting a thin strip of
light across the floor of the bedroom and climbing up the bed to settle across
one eye of the sleeping teen who called the room his domain. He squirmed to get
away from the annoying little slit of light that was trying to drag him to the
realm of wakefulness. He was warm, comfy, and more peaceful than he had been in
a very long time. Beside him, someone else shifted. That movement was enough to
draw the teen further out of his bonds of sleep. He wasn't used to waking up
next to someone. It was new and oddly more pleasant than he would have thought.
He slowly cracked his eyes open, turning his head to avoid the sunlight trying
to assault his eyes. Zak's gaze settled on the blond head lying on the pillow
next to him. Unbidden, a smile crept across his face.
Nakatsu looked like a sexy mess. That was the only way Zak could think to
describe him. The blond was curled up on his right side with the sheet slipping
off his naked waist. His hair was a lovely wreck (falling into his eyes and
sticking up in weird places) while hickies covered several spots on his neck
and shoulder. The sight of the blond lying like beside him was enough to send a
surge of intense lust coursing straight to the previous sleeping dick between
his legs. This was what he had been longing for when he imagined the blond
staying over. It was amazing to finally have something he'd fantasized so
thoroughly come true almost exactly. He was gonna make the most of this week
together. He wasn't going to let himself think about the after. At the moment,
he just wanted to enjoy this. It was only fair, right?
Nakatsu stirred when Zak's hand trailed down his side to settle heavy on his
hip. The blond may have gotten to have his way yesterday, but Zak was
determined to get his this morning. After all he was the one who taught Nakatsu
everything about sex. He still had the rights to play top more no matter what
the soccer player thought. He pushed the blond over on to his stomach with a
wicked smile. Nakatsu made an annoyed sleepy sound at being disturbed. Zak
ignored it and caressed his fingers down the blond's spin. He stopped just at
the cleft of the blond's ass crack. He rubbed his palm over both ass cheeks,
but keeping his fingers tickling over the crack. Nakatsu squirmed and huffed
out a half interested breath.
"You awake yet?" Zak murmured into the blond's ear, making the boy's shoulders
twitch.
Nakatsu sighed softly. "Getting there. That fucking tickles."
"Good," Zak muttered before leaning down to nip one of Nakatsu's ass cheeks.
The blond's head snapped up with an undignified yelp. "I hate it when you do
that!"
"Yes, but you're awake now." The high jumper smirked, reaching to grab the
bottle of lube off the nightstand.
Nakatsu started to roll over to bitch at him more, but Zak firmly pressed him
back down. "Stay. I want your ass. I'm gonna have it."
The blond squirmed again. A sign that told Zak just those words had started to
wake up Nakatsu's sleeping dick. "I haven't brushed my teeth or showered after
yesterday."
"Why do you think you're face down?" The high jumper smacked the blond's ass as
a reprimand. Nakatsu glared at him. "And showers are over rated. You don't have
to be clean every time you fuck. Think about it…you hardly ever are."
Nakatsu did think about it. Most of the time they fucked after he finished
practice; he was usually hot and sweaty—dirty. Holy crap, Zak was right. They
showered after, but never before. What a silly clique, he thought. It was kinda
dumb to shower before you had sex when you were gonna get all hot and sweaty
again. While he was contemplating this he failed to notice Zak sliding down the
bed. So the sudden shock of a warm, wet appendage sweeping over his crease made
him jump nearly out of his skin. He growled under his breath when Zak laughed
at him. Oddly, Nakatsu could feel the vibration of the boy's laugh and the
curve of his smile against the back side of his thigh. It sent warm tingles
pooling in his gut. There was something incredibly gratifying about making Zak
laugh. It was more of a turn on than anything else to him.
Zak smiled wider when he felt the blond relax. He spread Nakatsu's cheeks again
before delving back down for more. Nakatsu would never admit it aloud, but Zak
knew that he secretly loved this. It was there in the flex of the blond's hips,
the arch of his spin, and the clenched fists in the sheets. Nakatsu enjoyed
this kind of attention. Fingers soon followed the tongue, opening the blond.
The pleasure was quickly bringing the blond's burgeoning erection to full
salute. Zak found Nakatsu's sweet spot then rubbed over it with a firm press of
fingers. He earned a deep throaty groan of want for his effort. His cock
twitched at the sound. He didn't want to wait any longer. He wasn't in the mood
to tease either. He wanted inside Nakatsu.
Now.
He pulled out his fingers, lubed up his cock, and scooted forward to position
himself. There was a moment of anticipation as Nakatsu waited to be penetrated.
Then Zak was pushing forward, past the first initial resistance then—ah,
sinking. Nakatsu moaned, heavy and long in response to the slow dive of Zak's
cock pressing inside of him. Zak closed his eyes so he could just feel. It felt
so damn good. So perfect; always perfect.
He opened his eyes when he felt his balls brush the blond's ass. He was all in,
yet it wasn't enough. He needed more. He draped himself over Nakatsu's back,
bracing his hands on either side of the blond's head before beginning to
thrust. Both moaned at the intensity of the movement. The angle was just right
for the both of them. Everything after that was movement, the slap of skin on
skin, grunt and moans, curses, and pure pleasure. Nakatsu writhed in frantic
arousal. Zak's cock was pressed firmly against his sweet spot on every thrust.
It was overwhelming and not nearly enough. The thrusts were slow and deliberate
so that the blond felt constantly stimulated, but just not quite enough to
come. It was so agonizingly frustrating. It was intoxicating. He was suspended
over pre-orgasm intensity. He wanted to come so bad. He began to whimper,
unwittingly, with every thrust. Zak smirked. He loved the needy, pleading tone
in Nakatsu's voice. He knew how to stave off the blond's orgasm for as long as
possible. When Nakatsu was finally allowed to come he'd scream from the sheer
intensity.
Zak didn't increase his pace until his own hips and thighs were jittering with
impending orgasm. Then he began to slam forward. He fucked Nakatsu down into
the mattress with the force and speed of each snap of his hips. Beneath him,
Nakatsu's knuckles were white from the clench of his fists in the sheets as he
practically sobbed for air. The sharp jabs of Zak's cock were overloading his
senses.
"Ah! Close!" He gasped as his orgasm teetered on the edge.
"Almost," Zak whispered. He was so close he could almost taste it.
They waivered there for a moment on the brink of total release. Then one more
quick thrust, and they both came hard. Nakatsu shuttered, crying out loudly as
he soaked the sheets beneath him. Zak couldn't hold back the long, deep breathy
moan as his orgasm bombarded his body. He kept thrusting his hips as he came,
prolonging both their orgasms until it was so good it nearly hurt. Zak
collapsed after a moment, body shaking, panting for breath onto Nakatsu's back.
The blond grunted his disapproval of being squished. Zak rolled himself off the
side and sprawled out.
"That was good," he murmured.
"Yes." Nakatsu agreed. It had been really fucking good.
They laid there for about half an hour. Not talking or touching. Just being. It
was nice.
"I'm hungry," the blond finally broke the silence.
Zak huffed out a laugh. "Ok. I'll make omelet rice. After we shower."
"Definitely need a shower."
The high jumper glanced over. "I dunno. I think you look pretty sexy with cum
dripping out of your ass. You could just stay like that all day."
Nakatsu flushed. "You say the most embarrassing shit."
"Yep," he replied arrogantly before rolling to his feet. "Come on. Shower then
food."
"Fine."
/
Zak didn't think he'd ever had that much sex in so many consecutive days.
Contrary to what Nakatsu had said about homework, he only left to go back to
his dorm 4 of the 7 days. Of the 7 days he stayed over all, but 2 nights. They
fucked over every piece of furniture that Zak had the urge to. The couch, the
dining room table, the kitchen counter, his desk with the window open in front
of them (it was cute that Nakatsu had tried to be quiet, but Zak enjoyed making
him yell), and all the floors with rugs on them hadn't been spared their
sexcapades. They even did it once outside behind his house in the grass on a
blanket. They almost got discovered by the mail man. Zak hadn't stopped even
when they heard the mail man's boots on the gravel when he peered around the
house. Nakatsu had been so embarrassed, but Zak swore that was when the blond
came the hardest. They did it 3 times in one day. By the end of the week they
were both sore and walking a little funny. It was worth it though. Every second
of it had been so fucking awesome.
It wasn't like all they did was fuck either. Far from it. They'd watched a lot
of movies while consuming to much soda and junk food. They'd left the house a
few times. Once so Zak could give Nakatsu a proper tour of the temple and the
grounds. He counted it as getting out of the house. They went to the mall. They
wandered the city. Nakatsu took Zak back to his favorite place to eat. Zak took
Nakatsu to his favorite place to eat. So what if it was only a soba noodle
shop. He was a simple kinda guy. They'd talked a lot during all that time
together; sharing childhood memories, family stories, talked about their
ambitions, school, and so much more.
All the while Zak had refused to think about the end of the week. He had a
decision to make. He'd known it at the beginning of the week. He'd made his
choice. He set that aside until the week was over though. No matter what
happened he wanted them to remember this as being one of the best weeks of
their lives. Maybe he was a coward for not just coming out and saying it. He
didn't care. He'd gotten his perfect week. He was happy. It was a little
bittersweet though.
Because now it all had to end…
/
They sat on the bleachers of the Osaka High athletic field in their favorite
seats. It was Sunday evening. They were watching the sun set. Zak could feel
the weight of the decision he needed to talk about bearing down on him. It
seemed to squeeze his throat muscles so tight that he could barely breathe.
What he needed to say would hurt for the both of them. Probably more so on
Nakatsu's part though. Impulsively, he leaned over to press a kiss against the
blond's lips. They lingered like that for a time, exchanging kisses and little
touches. It was like Nakatsu could sense something was about to happen. Hell,
Zak was stalling to prevent it. Finally, he forced himself away.
"Listen," Zak cleared his throat. "I think we…" Dammit, not how he wanted to
start this. "You know whatever this was between us," he gesture between their
bodies, "it wasn't permanent. It was just…"
"Lust," Nakatsu's face had gone pale. "I know." He glanced away, shoving his
hands into his pockets.
"I didn't want to make this anything more."
Nakatsu glared over at him. "Neither did I! But I'm not stupid either."
"I'm not stupid." Zak growled defensively.
"There's something more than lust now. You must have realized that. I'm trying
to figure it out too." Nakatsu said earnestly.
"Well, stop! All I ever wanted was sex."
"Why? Are you scared of it turning into more?"
"No!" Zak bit out. He waved his hands between them. "You and me—it'd never
work. We're all wrong for each other."
"How?"
"We're both hot tempered, we fight a lot, and we're to similar."
"Yeah, we're both also stubborn and passionate. It doesn't seem to have
affected things yet." Nakatsu pointed out.
The high jumped sighed and shook his head. "I'm done talking about it." He got
up to turn away.
"You're such a coward."
Zak spun back around. "What'd you just call me?"
"You heard me."
"I'm not a coward. I'm a high jump champion!"
"Jumping hurdles doesn't mean you have the balls to face me!" Nakatsu got to
his feet, fists clenched at his sides.
"Tell me something, Nakatsu, why is this so fucking important?" Zak asked,
after he took a deep breath and refused to let himself be goaded.
"If this has a chance of going somewhere wouldn't you wanna know?" Nakatsu
asked seriously.
Kagurazaka looked away from his earnest gaze. "It doesn't have a chance."
"Why?"
"Because I can't!"
Nakatsu stared at him in confusion. "What are you talking about?"
"Look, I like having sex with you. It's rough, it's fast, and not meant to be
anything more than a fuck for pleasure. But I have expectations I have to live
up to. Being exposed as a fag would ruin it all. Think about it," the high
jumper explained tersely.
"You're saying it'd ruin your athletic goals?" Nakatsu asked in order to make
sure he was right.
"Yes, and yours too. That's not the only thing."
"Then what else is there?"
"Nevermind. Just take no for an answer," Zak growled.
Nakatsu bit his lip and backed off. "Fine."
"I gotta go," Zak said, starting down the steps.
"Are you coming by again?"
"No, I think we should stop. I can't let this go any further, Nakatsu. If
you're developing 'feelings' and it's not just about sex than I can't do it.
It's been fun, but that's it." Zak spoke sincerely. Fuck, it hurt to say it. It
hurt to stand there and look at him, knowing there wouldn't be a next time.
"Alright. If that's what you really want," Nakatsu scowled at him. He didn't
know what else to say to change the high jumper's mind. Zak seemed pretty set
on breaking up with him. Breaking up…ha, they'd never really been together!
For a moment, Kagurazaka hesitated. There was a chance here. He knew it.
Nakatsu knew it. Zak couldn't do it though. It would only hurt worse for them
both in the end. Better to sever this bond before it had gotten to strong.
Nakatsu watched him with a blank expression. "Yeah. We're done."
"Ok." Nakatsu walked away down the stairs past him. He did not look back.
Zak stood on the steps, watching the blond walk around the outside of the
bleachers and then off towards his dorm. Zak had done the right thing. He knew
it, but it sucked. He hadn't expected it to be that damn hard. He hadn't
expected the strong desire that welled up in him to race after the blond and
fix it. He squashed down the urge. He'd done it for both their sakes. He would
not change it now.
/
Umeda gazed sympathetically at Nakatsu. The kid looked like a downtrodden
puppy. He hated to see any of the kids in pain of any sort, especially
heartbreak. Not that the little pukes needed to know that. He felt especially
sorry for Nakatsu's though. This kid's love life just seemed to suck. First,
the fiasco with Mizuki and now being rejected by a guy he'd been fucking for
months. Umeda knew all to well what it was like not to be with the person you
wanted. It sucked royally. It had to be worse for Nakatsu though, because he'd
had something good. It could have been something fucking great. In the end,
Umeda was glad Kagurazaka had done what he did. If he wasn't going to get
serious about Nakatsu then things needed to end. It was better for Nakatsu that
way.
"Look, I hate to be the one tell you to move on. Life ain't fair and the one
you want won't always want you back," Umeda sighed, taking off his glasses and
setting them on his desk. He really wanted a cigarette.
"Easy for you to say." Nakatsu grumbled, staring down at his hands.
"Ha, yeah," Umeda said sarcastically.
Nakatsu looked up. He must have read something in the doctor's eyes and
understood. "Well, you do have a terrible personality." He offered with a wane
smile.
"Thanks," Umeda rolled his eyes.
They sat in silence for another long moment.
"Did you at least get to ask the guy you like if there was a chance?" Nakatsu
asked curiously.
"No, so you one upped me there, kid. At least, you tried," Umeda replied.
"Do you think there's a chance he'll change his mind?"
Umeda sighed. "It sounds like there's a minor one, but I wouldn't stake to much
hope on it. Take it for what it was. You learned from it. It was good, but it's
done. Find someone else to focus on. If there's a chance then having moved on
will drive him nuts."
Nakatsu blinked then smiled. "You've got a point."
"I thought so."
Nakatsu dropped his head into his hands. "It was so good though. The past week
was the best. It really felt like we were something more. I kinda hoped that
maybe he'd finally given in. I didn't expect such a great week to end like
that."
"Who would? At least, the sex was great." Umeda smiled.
"Yeah, the sex was great," Nakatsu agreed. He set down his mug of coffee and
stood up. He lingered there for a moment awkwardly. "You know, I…well thanks.
For listening and giving me your support. You're a better person than you
pretend to be."
Umeda blinked. "Thanks, and you're welcome. If you get a chance, maybe you
should talk to him again. Just to help clear the air between you."
"Yeah, it'd be nice to still be friends." Nakatsu replied. "See yah later,
Umeda-sensei."
"Good luck, Nakatsu."
***** Chapter 10 *****
Nakatsu sat sprawled out on a bench in the school courtyard. It had been a
long, difficult week. He had done his best to try to act normal. He didn't want
anyone asking what was wrong with him. Sano had sensed something was up, but he
hadn't asked questions. He was smart enough to know when to back off. Still, in
a way Nakatsu needed someone else to talk to besides Umeda. The doctor
understood and had given him some honest advice. Yet, what the blond really
needed right now was a friend who would just listen. He opened his eyes and
raised his head off the back of the bench when he heard someone come to a stop
beside him. He shouldn't have been surprised to see Kayashima standing there
with a knowing expression.
"How do you do that?" Nakatsu asked with a slightly amused smile.
The other boy smiled. "You aura has been in a lot of turmoil. I figured by now
you'd be ready to talk."
"You're right. Wanna sit down?" Nakatsu inclined his head to the spot beside
him on the bench.
The aura reader sat and folded his hands in his lap. He didn't say anything. He
just waited. Nakatsu smiled. That's what he liked about Kayashima. He was
quiet, unassuming, and a loyal friend. He could always count on this guy to
listen. So he began to talk. It just poured out of him. It was cathartic to
talk about it. He went into more depth about his feelings than he had with
Umeda. He didn't hold anything back, because he knew Kayashima wouldn't judge.
"I know there's something more. I can feel it whenever we touched. It was there
in the way he kissed me. From the very beginning, I could sense there was
something more than just sex between us." Nakatsu sighed, dropping his head
into his hands.
"Your auras meshed very well," the aura reader finally said calmly.
The blond looked over in surprise. "When did you ever see us together?"
"I was out in the city when I saw you two together last week. I was spending
the day with my girlfriend," Kayashima replied easily. "You both looked happy
together. I can understand why you say you sensed more. I could see it."
"So I'm not just crazy?"
"No, I don't think so. However, he pushed you away for a reason; an important
one in his mind. I also think you know what it is you're really feeling towards
him. Why don't you just say it?" Kayashima asked honestly.
Nakatsu stared at him with his mouth hanging open for a long moment. He snapped
his jaw shut and blushed crimson. He did know. He had for a while. He just
hadn't wanted to think about it—or admit it. "You want me to say…" He swallowed
hard then chuckled a little. He sounded slightly hysterical. "Fuck, I'm in love
with him." He started to laugh harder. "I can't fucking believe it. I fell in
love with him!" He dropped his head back into his hands, laughing until tears
started to form in his eyes and drip down his cheeks. He couldn't tell if he
was laughing or sobbing anymore. His chest was painfully tight, his throat
hurt, and his eyes burned from tears. More than anything, his heart hurt. He'd
just let the high jumper go. He hadn't fought as hard as he could. He should
have tried harder.
Kayashima rested his hand on the blond's arm. "I think you should talk to him.
He's probably upset too. And Umeda-sensei's right about you needing to confront
him."
"You really think I should?" Nakatsu said after taking several deep breaths to
calm himself.
"Yes. Do it tomorrow."
"I have practice tomorrow."
Kayashima gave him an unimpressed look. "Some things are more important than
soccer." He stood up. Nakatsu gapped at his back. "Dinner's ready." He started
to walk away.
Nakatsu shook his head. "Amazing." He jumped up and ran after the other boy.
"Thanks, Kayashima." He said when he caught up to the aura reader.
"You're welcome."
/
For the first time in his life, Nakatsu skipped a soccer practice. He figured
it was for a legitimate reason though. He needed to talk to Zak. It was eating
him up inside the longer he waited. There was something behind the high
jumper's bull shit excuses about why they'd broken up. Nakatsu had to know the
real reason. He couldn't sleep, pay attention in school, or even practice
soccer with his whole heart until he knew the truth. It had even begun to
affect his appetite, which was almost unheard of for him. That was the final
straw. He decided that if Zak would not come to him then he would go to Zak.
He felt like he was a stalker or something, as he waited by the entrance of
Zak's school for the higher jumper to show. He didn't think it should take this
long for Zak to come out of the school though. Finally, the high jumper walked
through the front doors and down the steps. He was surrounded by a group of
other guys, who were all chatting merrily to each other. Zak was the silent one
in the middle with his hands stuffed in his jacket pocket with his perpetual
scowl firmly in place. Nakatsu pushed away from the front gate to stand in the
middle of the sidewalk. Zak stopped in his tracks when he saw the blond.
Another kid ran into the high jumper's back, and look to see what had caught
Zak's attention.
"What the hell, Nakatsu?" Zak snapped angrily as he broke away from the group.
"I need to talk to you."
"About what? We've got nothing to discuss."
Nakatsu glared. "Yeah, we do. And if you don't then I'll tell your friends over
there all about why I'm here to see you."
"You're threatening me?" Zak's scowled deepened.
Nakatsu shrugged casually.
"Fine. Wait here a second." Zak walked back to the other guys. He spoke to them
for a moment before they disbursed and Zak came back. "C'mon, there's a park
near by. We can talk there."
It was weird for Nakatsu to walk next to a guy who had been his lover, and was
now acting so tense about seeing him. The blond was a little mad about that. He
didn't like feeling that he was being an annoyance to Zak. More than anything
though he didn't like that Zak was trying to walk ahead of him, like he was
trying to forget Nakatsu was there. They walked through the park to a more
secluded location. Zak led him to a bench under a cherry blossom tree. The high
jumper flopped down gracelessly before giving Nakatsu a baleful look. Nakatsu
rolled his eyes before he sat down.
"Well?" Zak barked irritably.
"Why'd you break up with me?" Nakatsu asked bluntly. There was no point
skirting the issue.
Zak sighed and seemed to deflate a little. Some of the scowl slipped away to
show a more tired expression. "Can't you just let it go?"
"No. There's more between us. I know it. I'm not gonna drop it without good
reason," Nakatsu replied sincerely.
Zak rubbed a hand over his face. "Part of it is being worried about getting
found it. I don't want to be labeled gay. I know I could still do the high
jump, but it would make everything that much harder."
"Sports is about playing the game well. It's about being a good athlete. It's
not about what you're personal life is like," Nakatsu replied calmly.
"It'd still effect the way people would see us."
"Yeah, but that's not the only thing. Is it?"
"No." Zak took a deep breath.
"What then?"
Zak sat quietly for a minute. He finally decided he might as well just tell the
blond. Nakatsu would never leave him alone otherwise. "My family is in danger
of losing the temple. The grounds got bought out from under us. My father's
been negotiating to get them back. We don't have the money to do that though.
The man who owns the land now agreed to give it back if I marry his daughter.
While the temple is not big, it is fairly famous and our family name is well
known. He is also rather prominent in the business society. I guess the
prestige of a union between our families would help with his business
relations, while raising our standing in society, and gain our land back. I
didn't have a lot of say in the matter. It's already been decided."
"So you're betrothed?" Nakatsu asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, pretty much," he answered.
"When…?"
"They were pushing for right out of high school, but I refused. I'm not going
to college already married. I wanna enjoy it and anyone I feel like before I'm
forced to be married."
"What if you didn't want to marry her?" Nakatsu asked hopefully.
Zak smiled, but there was no amusement behind it. "I tried to break it off, but
the man's told us we'll lose the place if I refuse. My parents told me I have
to carry on the family name too. We're also behind on the mortgage. This guy's
been paying it for us. We owe him."
"But isn't that like blackmail or something? Is he Yakuza?" Nakatsu pressed,
still unable to grasp what he was hearing.
Zak chuckled a little. "No, he's not Yakuza. It doesn't matter. Either way I am
screwed. I have to marry her."
Nakatsu sat quietly for a moment. "Do you even like her?"
"Yeah, she's a friend. I've known her for a while." Zak replied honestly.
Nakatsu sat forward and clasped his hands together. "I'm sorry."
Zak shrugged.
"I'm not gonna give up just like that," Nakatsu declared determinedly.
The high jumper looked over at him in baffled surprise. "Why?"
"Because I love you!" Nakatsu blurted out before he could second guess himself.
Zak's mouth fell open, to stunned to do more than blink at him.
"I figured it out the other day. I think you feel the same way. Don't you?" the
blond looked at the high jumper earnestly.
Zak shook his head and looked away. "I can't answer that."
"What's the matter? You know how I feel now. I think I deserve a straight
answer for once." Nakatsu growled. "I'd say you owe me since you started this
shit between us."
Kagurazaka bristled angrily. "I don't owe you anything. It was just sex!"
"You are such a fucking coward! Is it really that hard to be honest with me—or
yourself?" Nakatsu scooted closer and spoke earnestly.
The high jumper snarled, shoving him away. "I ain't a coward!"
"Then fucking say it out loud!"
"What would be the point!?"
"So we can at least be true to ourselves and each other."
Zak clenched his fists. "This can't last between us so there's no point."
"So you're just gonna hide how you feel?"
"Shit, just let it go!"
"No! I've always been honest to you. I'd like the favor returned!" Nakatsu half
shouted.
The high jumper jumped to his feet and spun around to face the blond. "Fine! I
hate you, you bastard! Happy!?"
Nakatsu fought the urge to punch him. "Liar." He reached up to yank the high
jumper down into a deep kiss. Kagurazaka's hands buried themselves in his hair
and dug into his scalp. Nakatsu groaned in the back of his throat at the
agonized sensation. He refused to let Zak go though. The high jumper found
himself answering the kiss with all the intensity of the confusing emotions
whirling around inside of him. He had been trying to do the right thing for the
both of them. It was too late for good intentions though. When they parted, he
dropped his head and admitted the truth.
"I love you."
Zak's mouth was immediately caught up in another kiss. He didn't protest as the
blond pulled him closer until he was straddling Nakatsu's lap. Both had totally
forgotten for the moment that they were in a public place. Anyone could walk by
to see them kissing.
"Not so bad, was it?" Nakatsu asked with a quirky smile when he finally
released Zak.
"Not so bad," the high jumpered muttered lamely. He slipped off the blond's lap
to sit on the bench beside him once more (though much closer this time). "Just
'cause I admitted it though doesn't change anything."
"Can't we just have this for a while?" Nakatsu sighed. "We can figure something
out. I want you."
"Only you could say that to another guy with a straight face." Zak rolled his
eyes.
Nakatsu returned the gesture.
"Why would you do that anyways? You'd have a few years with me then we'd have
to separate." The high jumper told the blond.
"It's like that saying 'better to have loved and lost than never loved at
all.'"
"I think that's full of shit."
Nakatsu took a deep breath and let it out slow. "Maybe, but if it's just for a
while I'll take what I can."
"I dunno if I can do that, Nakatsu. All the sneaking around, lying, and having
to give it all up after college. That's asking a lot. It's gonna suck." Zak
said honestly.
"Yeah."
"I mean, how would it even work? We're both graduating in 2 months. Have you
even picked a college?"
"Yes, and I'm testing next week."
"What college?"
"K University."
Zak's eyebrows shot up.
"What?"
"Well, I've applied there too," Zak replied.
Nakatsu grinned. "Well, it is the best sports college in the nation. Sano's
applying too."
"Christ," the high jumper groaned.
Both were silent for a moment. Nakatsu suddenly had a brilliant idea.
"We could all live together instead of in the dorms! Save some money with all
of us chipping in for rent and food. It's be a great cover so we could be
together!" Nakatsu exclaimed.
"Now you want us to live together!? You're fucking insane!" Zak cried
incredibly.
"I wanna be happy," Nakatsu said earnestly. "Even just for a little while. I
wanna be happy…with you."
Zak sighed and put his head in his hands again. "I dunno. This is nuts. I
didn't want to feel like this. It's why I fucked around to begin with."
"I get that, but don't you think it was already a little to late the first time
you kissed me?" Nakatsu asked. Zak didn't answer. Nakatsu didn't need him too.
He knew the answer. "Just think about it a little."
"Fine," Zak stood up and shoved his hands into his pockets. "I'll think about
it, but don't get your hopes up."
"Ok."
Zak shifted awkwardly before finally leaning over to kiss the blond roughly on
the lips. "I fucking hate you for doing this to me."
Nakatsu smiled a little sadly. "I know. Me too."
"I'll see yah later. I'll give you my answer then." The high jumper turned and
walked away swiftly. He almost looked like he wanted to run, but wouldn't let
himself.
Nakatsu sighed heavily. Why couldn't anything ever be easy? He finally realized
he was gay, had fallen in love, and was once again losing the person he wanted.
His heart seemed to always pick the wrong people for him to fall in love with.
/
"So you talked to him," Umeda remarked as he flicked off the ash from the tip
of his cigarette. He was leaning against the wall around Osaka High with a
despondent blond teenager slumped beside him. He'd been on his way home when he
saw Nakatsu walking up the sidewalk to the school. He had stopped to talk to
the kid, despite knowing he really shouldn't get any more involved. The
cigarette was an excuse to stop. Nakatsu had come over without the doctor
saying a word. Umeda had only guessed at what had the blond down.
"Yeah."
"That bad, huh?" The doctor sucked in a breath of nicotine flavored smoke.
Nakatsu shrugged. "He admitted he loves me."
Umeda raised his eyesbrows in surprise. "Congratulations. Why do you still look
like someone kicked your puppy then?"
"He's engaged to be married," the blond replied quietly.
"Oh," The doctor said. "Well, that complicates things."
"No shit," Nakatsu glared over at him.
Umeda couldn't help but chuckle a little. "Sorry. There's more to it right?"
"He's applying to the same university as me. I suggested we live together."
Nakatsu scuffed the toe of his sneaker on the pavement.
"Even after knowing he's gonna have to get married?"
"Yeah. I just…I love him so fucking much. Even if I have to give him up I wanna
have a chance to be with him." Nakatsu swallowed hard. "I wanna know what it's
like to be with someone I love."
"You're consigning yourself to a world of hurt later on though. Could you live
with having to leave him in the end?" Umeda asked the hard question.
Nakatsu took a deep breath. "I dunno. I know it'll hurt. If you could have a
few years with the man you love would you take it?"
Umeda mulled this over as he rolled his cigarette between his fingers. "I
probably would. I understand how you feel."
"I dunno what else to do."
"Give him up now and find someone else to love." The doctor replied bluntly.
"Says you. You can't even take your own advice," the blond grumbled.
Umeda laughed sadly. "Man, you know how to kick a guy right where it hurts the
most, don't you?"
"Sorry."
"Don't be. You're right." He stubbed out his cigarette and flicked it away. "Do
what your heart feels is best. If it's only for a little while then don't waste
a second of it."
Nakatsu looked over and smiled a little brighter. "Thanks, Umeda-sensei."
"Yeah. Well, I'm off. You better go in before you miss dinner." He gave a
little wave before walking away.
"It all depends on him," Nakatsu muttered to himself. He walked through the
gates back to the dorms. For once, food did not seem so appealing. He just went
straight back to his room. Kayashima said nothing when he climbed into his bed
and rolled up in his blankets.
/
It actually startled Nakatsu when he looked up during soccer practice 2 days
later to see Kagurazaka sitting in the bleachers watching him. It felt like
nothing had changed for a moment. He wished nothing had, because then he
wouldn't have the sudden sensation of nervous anxiety rising in his throat. He
had this horrible feeling that the high jumper had decided to end things
between them completely. The rest of the practice went terribly for him. He was
to emotionally upset to pay attention. He didn't even listen when his coach
scolded him for losing his focus like that. He knew the coach had a point. When
he was playing the game he should not let himself be distracted by anything.
Zak wasn't just anything though. He was glad when practice was over just so he
wouldn't have to see the disgruntled looks on his team mates' faces.
He stared up at the high jumper, who sat unmoving in the bleachers. Zak just
sat, relaxed in his seat with his arms sprawled across the backs of the seats
next to him. Nakatsu sighed. He would have to go to Zak this time. A bit of an
interesting turn around. He climbed up the steps until he got to Zak's row.
When he reached the high jumper, he plopped down into the seat next to him.
Neither said anything for several minutes as they watched the other students
head back to the dorms.
"I've thought about it," Zak finally broke the silence.
Nakatsu looked over anxiously. "And?"
"It's stupid." The high jumper said curtly.
The blond sighed heavily. He had been expecting that answer. He should have
known the high jumper wouldn't go along with such a crazy idea.
"I wanna do it."
Nakatsu stared at him blankly for a second. "What?"
"I want to live with you. I want to go to college together. I wanna fuck you
every night as long as I can…because I fucking love you," the high jumper
snapped at him impatiently.
"And what about everything else?" Nakatsu asked, still to shocked and not quite
getting it yet.
"It can wait. We'll forget about it 'til it happens. Maybe I can get out of it.
I dunno." Zak swallowed and looked down at his hands. "All I know is that I
want what you want, even if it's just for a little while."
Nakatsu closed his eyes and smiled. He hadn't expected that answer at all. He
felt overwhelmed with happiness. It was a little surreal still. When he opened
his eyes, Zak was smiling back at him. He loved that smile. He wanted to make
Zak smile every day they were together. He felt like a girl for thinking that,
but it was the truth.
"So what do you say?" Zak asked.
"I fucking love you too," Nakatsu grinned. "And I want to be with you too."
Zak leaned over to kiss him, but stopped an inch away. "You think Sano will
agree to share a place with us?"
"I think I could get him too," Nakatsu smirked.
"Good," Zak said then kissed him hard. He pulled back and smiled devilishly.
"You wanna go to that love hotel again?"
"Fuck yes!" Nakatsu exclaimed.

Chapter Notes
See the end of the chapter for notes
Umeda leaned against the wall outside his clinic door waiting for a certain
blond haired student to wander past on the way to class. He knew Nakatsu would,
because he took the same route to his second period class every day. He knew a
lot of the students schedules just by watching them walk by through the window
in his door. He supposed that went to show how perpetually bored he got during
this job when there was no student in his clinic. Today, though, he had
something important he needed to discuss with Nakatsu. It was about Nakatsu and
his boyfriend getting caught. They needed somewhere safer to go. He had finally
come up with an idea. It was a pretty good one he thought. Finally after about
five minutes of waiting, Nakatsu came around the corner.
"Hey, Nakatasu-kun," Umeda greeted the boy.
The soccer player looked up in surprise. "Hey, Umeda-sensei."
"Come in here a minute," Umeda pointed at his clinic door.
Nakatsu hesitated for a moment.
"You're not in trouble. I just have something I want to discuss with you," the
doctor told him. He opened the door and walked in, waiting for the blond to
follow. He shut the door when Nakatsu walked past him to take a seat in front
of his desk. "You and Kagurazaka have been a little reckless about this
relationship you both have."
"If you're talking about us using the locker room-."
"That's exactly what I was referring too. I didn't realize how much of a
problem it was until I came across Sano having to guard the area for you."
"I didn't even realize he was doing that!"
"Another point proving that you two weren't paying enough attention to
caution."
Nakatsu sighed irritably. "What are we supposed to do? We can't afford to keep
going to love hotels. We are only students after all. He also lives at home.
His parents run a shrine. I don't think they'd appreciate us coming over just
for that reason."
"Exactly. So I've come up with a solution."
"What's that?" Nakatsu asked suspiciously.
Umeda grinned. "Relax. You make it seem like I'm gonna ask you for your kidneys
or something."
"It wouldn't surprise me."
The doctor chuckled. "Well, anyways, I could use some extra help in my clinic
as far as keeping this place organized and clean. It's the annual inventory for
the entire school. So I have to go through all of my supplies, paperwork, and
such to give them an accurate count of everything I have as well as everything
I use during the course of the year. While starting this I also realized this
place needs to be completely re-organized. This is all a little overwhelming
when I'm also trying to take care of patients."
"Where are you going with this?"
"You have a free period after lunch, correct?"
"Yeah."
"If you help me inventory and organize my clinic I will make a deal with you,"
Umeda said simply. He opened a desk drawer and pulled out a key. He slid it
across the desk. "This key opens the door to the school and the clinic. You're
welcome to use this place for your rendezvous as long as you clean up
afterwards."
Nakatsu stared at him in shock. "But what if I get caught coming in or out?"
"I'll let the rest of the staff know you're helping me and that I trust you
entirely not to steal anything. You'll have an excuse to be here even if I'm
not," Umeda replied calmly.
"You'd do that for me?" the blond was flabbergasted.
"I like to look after my own." Umeda answered quite seriously. "You're going to
have to be very careful though. If you get caught with Kagurazaka, I will not
stick up for you. This is a private agreement between you and me, but I will
not let it ruin my job. Understood?"
Nakatsu was silent for a moment after he considered all of this. He was really
amazed the doctor was willing to go through this much trouble just to look
after him. He was flattered and happy to know that Umeda seemed to trust him
this much. He was putting himself at risk for Nakatsu's sake. The blond
couldn't say no. Helping Umeda out in the clinic didn't seem so bad in exchange
for getting a bed to fuck on instead of rubber mats. He glanced around. Plus,
he could lock the door; there was a curtain to hide the bed from the door
window, and even a private bathroom in here. He'd be stupid to turn down a deal
this good.
"Understood." He said, putting out his hand to shake on it.
"Good. It'll be fun working with you," Umeda grinned toothily.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes before standing up. He walked towards the door and
paused with his hand on the door knob. "Hey…thanks, Umeda-sensei."
"You're welcome. Just be careful like I said and guard that key," Umeda replied
sincerely. "Now get to class before you're late."
/
Two months went by fast for Nakatsu. There was a lot of time spent helping
Umeda. He actually didn't mind helping the doctor catalog and organize
everything in his entire clinic. In fact, heand Umeda came to be good friends.
There was a lot of time spent at Umeda's clinic with Zak after hours too. It
turned out it was harder to sneak into the school to fuck then it was to pass
the entrance exam for K University. Nakatsu, Sano, and Zak had all passed with
flying colors. Of course, their athletic records did most of the speaking for
them. All of them got in with some kind of scholarship. The time just seemed to
slip by towards graduation after the pressure of the exams was out of the way.
The hardest part after that was trying to convince Sano to agree to share an
apartment with Nakatsu and Zak. That had been a matter Nakatsu had been forced
to approach delicately—which he sucked at.
Sano had known something was up soon as he opened his dorm room door to see
Nakatsu sitting at his desk waiting. He'd watched the blond like he was a snake
in the grass about to strike. He set down his bag slowly before moving to sit
on the edge of his bed. Nakatsu shifted uncomfortably when Sano continued to
stare at him.
"Spit it out, Nakatsu."
Nakatsu rubbed the back of his head and gave a sheepish laugh. "Well, I heard
you got into K University-."
"You were there when we both got our acceptance letters," Sano gave him a bland
look.
"Right," Nakatsu twiddled his fingers. "Well, I thought it'd be a great idea if
you and I maybe rented an apartment together. I already checked around and it'd
be cheaper to do that then pay to live in the dorms at school."
"That's a good idea…"
"Right!?" Nakatsu jumped in. "We could split the cost for rent and food! Find
somewhere close to the college-."
"There's a catch, isn't there?" Sano broke in.
Nakatsu froze up—surprised and caught off guard by the interruption. It had de-
railed his train of thought. He'd had a whole plan for what and how he was
gonna say things. Now it had all flitted away in an instant.
Sano smirked knowingly.
"Ok, there's a catch," Nakatsu admitted.
Sano crossed his arms over his chest. "What is it?"
"It's about Zak."
"Zak?"
"Kagurazaka."
"You have a nickname for him?!"
"Well, yeah since he calls me blondie. It's only fair, right?" Nakatsu asked.
"You two are weird. What about him?" Sano sighed.
Nakatsu quickly explained the situation as well as the whole plan. Sano
listened patiently, keeping a blank expression until the very end.
"No way," Sano said immediately.
"But why?" Nakatsu asked with an expression like someone had stolen his candy.
"I am not gonna live in the same apartment with you two, knowing that in the
next room over you guys are gonna be going at it. What if I want Mizuki to come
over to visit? No way." Sano rejected frankly.
"Please, Sano! It'd look really suspicious if it was just us."
"You do realize he and I are rivals?"
"Yes, but you don't hate him, right?" Nakatsu pointed out.
Sano scowled. "No, but he's an arrogant prick to me."
"But not always!"
"Nakatsu, forget it."
"No! C'mon, think about it! This could work."
"And you really think we could afford a big enough place for the three of us?"
Sano asked skeptically as he quirked an eyebrow up in disbelief.
"Sure if we had part time jobs and such."
Sano sighed and rubbed a hand down his face. "I don't want to hear you guys
doing it."
"You won't! I thought of that!" Nakatsu pulled out a printed online Ad for an
apartment only two blocks from the college. The two bedrooms were on opposite
sides of the apartment with the living room between them. He'd figured the only
way Sano would hear them was if they were really loud. They'd be careful.
Sano took the paper and read all the details. He looked up at Nakatsu in
surprise. "You've put a lot of thought into this."
"Yeah well it might be the only way we can pass off living together." Nakatsu
chewed his bottom lip for a second. "I really want this. It might the only time
with him like this that I get. Please, Sano."
Sano looked at his friend's earnest expression and sighed heavily. "Dammit." He
was a sucker for romance now that he had Mizuki. If could help make his friend
happy then he should at least try. "Fine, but on a trial basis only for the
first semester. If it doesn't work I'm outta there."
"Thank you!" Nakatsu crowed in triumph. He could have hugged the high jumper,
but Sano probably would hurt him. "I'll call the landlord tomorrow and tell him
we'll take the place!"
"Wait you already talked to the landlord?!"
"Yeah. I wanted to make sure he'd rent to three guys."
"You conniving asshole! I changed my mind!" Sano jumped to his feet with a
growl.
"To late! It's already been decided! No take backs! Those are the rules!" The
blond shouted as he raced for the door.
Sano grabbed at him, but he was already out of reach. He didn't bother to chase
after him. He had agreed after all. Shit, what had he gotten himself into?
/
Four years seemed to go by even faster than the last two months of high school.
That graduation had come and gone in the blink of an eye. It seemed like only
yesterday, they had all arrived at K University. The first few months of
sharing an apartment together had been an interesting experience. There had
been the awkward moments when Sano had caught them kissing and one were they
had been half undressed on the sofa. They had come to agree that the living
room was a safe zone. No sexual stuff- save kissing- was allowed in that area.
The bedrooms were where that stuff took place—nowhere else. After that ground
rule was established they all learned to get along fairly well, even Sano and
Zak. Their rivalry became more of a friendly banter. It only spiked during
competitions. The two were constantly taking 1st and 2nd place of every meet.
Neither one really surpassed the other in rank. They were almost perfectly even
in skill now.
The first year of college had been rough. The classes had been challenging. The
teachers were faster paced and strict. They'd made it through though. They made
a lot of new friends. They learned the fun as well as value in study and
drinking parties. All of them had found part time jobs to help pay for the
apartment, food, and utilities. It was tough trying to fit in time for work and
school. It was difficult for Zak and Nakatsu to find time to just be together,
but they always found a way. Mizuki had come to visit twice in that year. She
was in a technical school back in the States to learn how to be a dog trainer.
The first year ended with a strong sense of accomplishment.
The second year began. This time they were more confident they could handle it
all. They all continued to live together. By the end of the second year of K
University, Mizuki had graduated from her school. She had moved back to Japan
and into the apartment with them. It was now an apartment of couples. They co-
existed easily now. It wasn't awkward for Nakatsu to live in the same apartment
as Mizuki. He still loved her, but as a friend. She knew that he was in love
with Zak. There was no lingering tension between them.
Sano's brother, Shin, came to K University the start of their third year. He
lived in the dorms on campus. He came to visit the apartment a lot though. As
the third year began, scouts for Japan's Olympic team came to the University.
They had followed Zak and both Sanos' careers for quite some time. Nakatsu had
also caught their attention in the way he'd played throughout his years in
college. The University's soccer team had yet to be beaten since Nakatsu had
joined it. Within a few months, the four athletes had been offered positions on
the Olympic team. Of course, they all had accepted. The rest of the year flew
by with intense training, traveling around (for Nakatsu to meet his other team
mates and practice with them), and still trying to pass all their classes.
Their senior year came before they had barely realized it. It was much the same
as the year before—filled with practice, competitions, jobs, and school. It
became like a creative art to Zak and Nakatsu to find time to be together. They
didn't think about anything, but the now and the Olympics. Their minds stayed
firmly away from the problems that would arise at the end of college. They'd
put no thought into fixing the issue of Zak's engagement. They didn't want to
think about it. College was their time. The last year was spent trying to enjoy
life and their time together to the fullest. Every day seemed to slip by faster
and faster. It was almost surreal. As the Olympics drew nearer, they seemed to
become celebrities in the college almost overnight. They saw their faces in
magazines, on TV, and in the newspaper. Reporters were hounding them for
interviews. It seemed like the whole country knew who they were. It was hard to
find any form of privacy, except in their apartment. The apartment became their
sanctuary.
Graduation was upon them in no time. Nakatsu was amazed he'd managed to stay on
top of his studies enough to graduate. He was actually graduated with a higher
grade point average than he had in high school. That was even more shocking. He
and Zak had earned Bachelor degrees in Athletic training so they could be
coaches later in life. Sano had earned the same degree and well as an
associate's Sports Management.
Now it was the night before they were going to leave for the Olympics. Zak and
Nakatsu sat in the bleachers surrounding the athletic field for K University.
It felt right to be there. It wasn't Osaka High, but it felt close enough to
pass it off. Everything felt like it had begun on an athletic field.
"I can't believe tomorrow we get on a plane and fly to Athens* for the
Olympics. It seems like a crazy dream. Did we really get this far already?"
Nakatsu said, staring across the athletic field.
Zak smiled. "It does seem a little crazy."
"We're gonna win our medals and come home heroes." Nakatsu grinned broadly.
"You make it sound like we're warriors, not athletes."
"Well, aren't we? We are doing battle with the rest of the world."
"Ok, fine," Zak chuckled.
They were quiet for a long moment.
"When we come back college will be officially over." Zak said, sorrow slipping
into his voice.
"It seems incredible. Where did the time go? We've had so much fun it seems to
have slipped away."
"Yeah, there's been a lot of competitions."
"Lots of study parties," Nakatsu smiled.
"Lots of drinking parties," Zak grinned.
"Lots of time spent with friends."
"And lots of time spent together."
"With tons of sex!"
"Yes, great sex," Zak commented.
They both laughed, bumping shoulders affectionately. They were quiet again for
a long time until the sun sank behind the college. They saw Sano striding
across the field, his messenger bag over his shoulder from his last class.
"I figured you guys would be here. We should go home. We need all the sleep we
can get." Sano remarked soon as he was within hearing range.
The couple looked at each other and smiled.
"Yeah, we have medals to win in a few days." Zak said confidently.
"Yours will be silver," Sano shot back.
"That's what you think, asshole." Zak sneered.
Nakatsu rolled his eyes. "I don't care what I get. I just want one around my
neck when we come back to Japan. I ain't leaving without one!"
"Just don't steal it," Sano grinned.
"I don't steal! I'll win it honestly!" Nakatsu cried indignantly.
"Yeah yeah, Blondie. Quit running your mouth. Let's go home. I'm starving!" Zak
grabbed his hand and dragged him out of the stands.
Nakatsu looped his arm over Sano's shoulders as they walked by him. "Good luck
in the next few days, Sano."
"Same to you, Nakatsu. I hope you trip, Kagurazaka."
"Back at yah, Sano."

It was the deciding game between Japan and Argentina. It was the difference
between Gold or Silver. Both teams were playing their hearts out, but it was
Japan that was prevailing. It was thanks to their star player on the field,
Nakatsu Shuichi. Every time he scored a goal, he turned to the stands to raise
his fist in triumph to Kagurazaka Makato, Sano Izumi, and Ashiya Mizuki. All
three were cheering him on louder than anyone else in the stands. There was no
way he could lose with their support.
"We are back live from Athens, Greece." The male Japanese sports announcer for
J sports station was saying on TV. "This has been one very long, intense battle
between these two teams. It has been a struggle to get goals past the defense
of both teams. Yet, Japan is still leading the game 3 to 2! Shuichi Nakatsu is
just shining in this game. If there was ever any doubt about the kind of talent
this young man has it is long gone!"
"He has certainly been playing extremely well today. He seems like he's putting
his all into this game. The entire nation of Japan is rooting for him right
now. Even the high jumpers Sano Izumi and Kagurazaka Makato are sitting in the
stands to cheer on their friend. Just yesterday, these two athletes were
battling each other for Gold and Silver in the high jump competition. There's
not a hint of rivalry between them now as they support Nakatsu in his efforts
to win." The female announcer replied enthusiastically.
"It's refreshing to see such close friends supporting each other. These three
have been friends since high school. They all went to the same college—K
University in Nagoya. They all share an apartment together there. Whenever
there is an event for one of these young men you'll see the other two there to
cheer on their friend. Sano, Nakatsu, and Kagurazaka are Japan's symbols of
great sportsmanship and friendship." The man informed the TV audience who were
watching with rapt attention.
"That's right. Japan has embraced this trio of athletes like family. We've all
watched over the years as the Sano brothers and Kagurazaka have competed
against each other in all high jumping events throughout Japan. They've been
working hard to make it to this moment here at the summer Olympics. Nakatsu has
been equally aggressive in pursuing his goals to become the best soccer player
in Japan. He is certainly well on his way to making that goal. All of Japan is
excited to see him here on the soccer team to play in the Olympics." The woman
agreed.
"It's sure been an exciting show with these four young men taking part in these
summer games. Sano Izumi won Gold yesterday in the high jumps, Kagurazaka
Makato took Silver, and Shin Sano took Bronze. It was a clean sweep for the
Japanese Olympic high jump team. The competition was fierce. These young men
are showing the world what Japanese athletes are made of!"
The Japanese team went on to win a crushing victory over Argentina. The final
score was 6-3. The last goal that won the game was kicked in by Nakatsu. In
seconds, he was swamped by his team mates. They pounded him on the back,
shouting in joy, as they celebrated their unbelievable victory. Nakatsu broke
away from the back to run for the stands. Zak was already racing down the
steps. He dodged the security guards who were keeping people off the field. He
jumped the rail, landing easily onto the field below, and was rushing across
the field in a matter of moments. The two collided with yells of excitement,
nearly falling over in their overwhelming need to hug each other.
"We won!" Nakatsu shouted ecstatically as he threw his arms around his lover's
neck and spun the taller man around.
Kagurazaka laughed and hugged the blond back. "Congratulations! I've never seen
you play like that! You were amazing!"
"We did it! Zak, you and me! We did it!" Nakatsu gasped joyfully as tears began
to form in the corners of his eyes. "We kept our promise even from back then.
We made it to the Olympics together and won our medals!"
"Yeah, we did, Blondie," the high jumper grinned. He slapped the soccer
player's back affectionately. "We'll celebrate our victories tonight!"
And they certainly did.
They went out drinking with the Sanos and Mizuki. Soon as they parted company
with them it was like a race to get back to the hotel room. They stumbled
drunkenly down the hotel's hallways, kissing madly and laughing like lunatics
until they reached Nakatsu's room. They didn't give a damn if anyone saw them,
but no one did. Everyone else was out celebrating too. Kagurazaka barely waited
until the door was shut before shoving Nakatsu against a wall and taking him
right there. They were wild with triumph, love, excitement, and beer singing
through their systems. Orgasms were like an explosion, fast and so incredibly
intense it left them shaking for several minutes afterwards. They made it over
to the bed and the spent the rest of the night destroying the sheets. It was
all perfect. It felt surreal and to crazy to believe that it had all happened
to them. They spent the whole night pouring their overwhelmed feelings into
each other.
The next morning, standing in front of what seemed like a thousand cameras with
the Sanos, it all still seemed like a dream. Nakatsu hoped it would never end.
He stood next to Kagurazaka, their arms wrapped around each other's shoulders
(the most they could touch each other in front of the world and not be
suspicious, because they just couldn't stop touching.), trying to answer
questions as best they could while cameras flashed in their faces. He couldn't
help but think this had to be their happy ending. This was all they'd ever
wanted. They had worked so hard to get here to become winners. Here they stood
with medals around their necks, smiling like loons at the cameras after years
of training and being together. This had to be it. It was their sign that they
could have everything they wanted. That had to include a life together and a
happily ever after for them. Nakatsu believed that with all his heart, because
to believe anything else was to give up. He'd never given up on anything. He'd
never give up on Zak. He'd love him always. He looked over at the high jumper
to see the same look in the other man's eyes. They had no idea what the future
held in a few months. Whatever it was they would make it through it. Nakatsu
believed in happily ever after.
The End…
For Now.

Chapter End Notes
     *Note: I actually researched the original date of the manga's release
     which was 1996. Athens was the closest Olympics I could figure them
     getting to by adding 3 years to 1996 for high school and then another
     4 years for college. That was a helluva headache to try to work out.
     This story ended at 73 pages and 40,000 words. How awesome is that? I
     know there was no sex in the last two chapters. I'm sorry! I just
     couldn't find a way to really fit it in with graphic detail. LOL!
     There will be a sequel to this story. That's part of the reason I
     didn't go to in depth with college and didn't do the sex. There will
     be more explanation and sex in the next story.
