'beep! beep! beep!'
megumi grunted, rolling over and blindly fumbling around for his phone. once he got his hands on it, he finally opened his sleepy eyes and turned off his alarm. tears pricked the corners of his eyes as he let out a soft yawn. it was cold. he wrapped his blanket around him, put on his house shoes and made his way to the living room.
there, in their respective crates, were his two best friends. kuro and shiro. his black and white dogs he's had since childhood. they greeted him with whiny yawns and biiiig stretches. he let them out of there crates and they wagged their tales, rubbing up against megumi's legs, ready to be fed and walked. megumi slowly walked towards the front door, still half asleep, where he grabbed their leashes and put on outdoor shoes. he hooked the dogs up to their leashes and made his way outside.
meanwhile, yuji was awoken by the sound of the front door shutting, since his room is right next to the entrance. with a yawn, he takes that as a cue to start his day. he slips on a hoodie and a pair of socks and makes his way to the kitchen. he fills the kettle with water and then turns the fire on under it. then, he pulls out their tea drawer and begins to thumb through the flavors. for himself, he chooses peppermint tea. and for megumi, he chooses caramel chai. he vaguely remembered megumi saying he liked it a few weeks prior. he picked out two mugs; a red one for himself and a black one for megumi. another yawn escaped him as he poured the boiling water into their mugs and then placed the tea bags in to steep.
just then, megumi and his dogs walk through the door. kuro and shiro rush in the greet yuji and he kneels down to pet them, saying 'hi' in a baby voice. megumi smiles internally while putting up their leashes and removing his shoes.
"good morning, megumi." yuji grins, speaking softly.
megumi looks up from feeding the dogs. "good morning." after feeding them, he goes to the sink and washes his hands. "do we still have apples?"
"yea, we should."
megumi nodded, opening the fridge. there was one apple and a couple cartons of different berries. he grabs a small knife and begins chopping up the fruit after washing it. as he was chopping, he shivered. yuji glances over at him and immediately goes to the couch where their throw blankets are. he picks one up, comes up behind megumi and places it softly over his shoulders. megumi can't hide the flush that takes over his face at yuji's sweet gesture.
"oh, thanks." he says simply, not facing yuji, lest he see his pink face.
yuji just hums, scrolling through his phone. megumi finishes cutting up their fruit. he plates it, just as yuji pulls out their tea bags. megumi hands him a plate of apple slices and yuji hands him a cup of caramel chai. they both walk over to their couches. kuro and shiro were taking up the smaller couch that yuji usually sits at, so he just takes a seat next to megumi on the bigger couch. after chomping into an apple slice, he grabs the remote and starts flicking though channels.
"in the mood for anything?" yuji asks, glancing over at megumi who was already looking at him. megumi looks away quickly, reaching for his phone.
"uh, no. i gotta get ready for class right after i eat anyway."
yuji nods and turns on some random cartoon. megumi scrolled through several different social media apps on his phone. they sat in silence, (aside from the tv) enjoying each others company. yuji reached over to grab his mug and when he did, his thigh pressed against megumi's. he didn't move it. he left it there, partially because he liked that physical connection and partially to see if megumi would move. megumi didn't move his leg either. with a shade of pink dusted over his face, he leaned back into the couch, only a couple inches from yuji. they sat like that for a while, both warm from each others body heat and warm from how close they were to each other. they were both flustered but neither of them did anything to escape the feeling, because being that close to one another felt better.
at the same time, megumi's dogs hopped from their own couch onto the other one. each dog sat on the other side of one of the boys, squishing them closer together. they were shoulder to shoulder, hip to hip, thigh to thigh. they both grunted, their faces each flushing bright pink.
"shiro, kuro, don't jump on people like that." megumi huffed, then he turned his head to face yuji. so close! their faces were just inches apart. they stared at each other with wide eyes. megumi's eyes flickered down to yuji's lips then back to his eyes. "sorry about the dogs. i guess they got lonely over there."
yuji stared at megumi's soft features. "it's okay." he said, so softly it was almost a whisper. "they might've just been cold. it is pretty warm over here."
megumi and yuji both felt their hearts beating out of their chests, keeping the eyes locked on the other one's face.
"yea... it is... warm." megumi mumbled, eyeing yuji's lips a second time. yuji noticed, taking a moment to do the same.
"i wanna kiss him so bad!" they both thought to themselves.
'beep! beep! beep!'
megumi's phone rung out, snapping the boys out their trance.
"oh... shit. i gotta go get ready for class." he scrambled up, starting to make his way to his room.
"okay." yuji said, sitting upright. "oh! um... i have a practice match tonight. did you wanna come watch?"
megumi stopped in front of his door. "yea, sure. i'll be there."
and with that he went into his room. and yuji stayed sitting on the couch. the two boys rubbed their hands over their faces, replaying what just happened. for the next ten or so minutes, they both daydreamed about kissing each other. by the time megumi was ready for class, he was a flustered mess. and so was yuji. megumi grabbed his coat and started to rush out the door.
"i'll see you tonight!" he called out, slinging his school bag over his shoulder.
"okay! have a good day, megumi!" yuji called out, cuddling with kuro and shiro.
megumi smiled, cracking the door open. "thank you, yuji." then he left for school.
'i have got to kiss him!' they both thought to themselves.
