I Will Play My Game Beneath the Spin Light

Chapter 4 Mistakes We Knew We Were Making


“Can you explain to me Ichimura just what the hell you were doing in that carriage?” Tetsu kept his head down while being lectured by Hijikata. This had been happening since they got back, and Mr. Okita opened the carriage to a very interesting scene. Tetsu had first only fallen asleep on Suzu’s shoulder, but as he slept he moved to lay in the teenager’s lap, and Suzu in turn slumped over onto him, head just lightly resting on the redhead’s hip. He had been told that they had slept like that the whole way home. Shinpachi, horrified, had been too shocked to wake them up.

Tetsunosuke blushed for what seemed like the hundredth time today at just what a picture that might have made. Without glancing up, he mumbled a quiet “Sleeping.” hoping that it would get him off the hook, and knowing that it most likely wouldn’t.

“I know you were sleeping!” The demon screamed. “My question is why the hell were you sleeping so comfortably in the lap of one of our business associates!?”

He flinched at the harsh tone, trying his hardest to keep his head bowed to the floor in apology. How could he have been so stupid as to actually fall asleep on Suzu in front of Shinpachi like that? He should have known something like this would happen. “I’m sorry sir. I know it wasn’t prudent for the Shinsengumi’s relationship, and I promise that it will never happen again.”

Peaking a glance upwards, he saw Hijikata shaking his head from side to side in disgust. “You’ll never learn will you Ichimura?” He placed a hand over his face. “I suppose I’ll be stuck with a worthless runt of a page forever.” That hand waved and motioned towards the door. “Get out of here, and make sure that this doesn’t happen again.”

This was one of those times when he really didn’t need to be told twice. Tetsu was out of there, and not a moment too soon. He ran around the corner at full sprint, nearly missing how Suzu was casually leaning against the wall. He skidded to a halt, backtracking to where the white haired teenager was standing.

“Did things go well?” Suzu was staring at the floor, with his arms casually crossed. He seemed much more comfortable here then Tetsu would have been in he was in the Choshu base.

Placing a hand on the back of his head, he rubbed it abashedly. “Eh…Not really. I really got reamed.”

Suzu’s brandy eyes met his, and a smirk was playing at his features. “Yes, well seeing as how you’re such a bad page, I’d suspect a brat like you would get yelled at quite a lot.”

Now he knew Suzu was making fun of him, but Tetsu couldn’t bring himself to care. He was much too caught up on how hot the teenager looked while doing so. Without realizing it his feet had began to move him forward, and soon he was standing not three inches away from Suzu. He stood on his tip toes connected their mouths together in a quick kiss…A kiss that he didn’t think would be as short as it ended up being. He was pulled away rather quickly though, and there was warning in those brandy eyes. “No Tets”

Okay, so now he was confused. “No?” Was he saying that they couldn’t do this anymore? Why had he so blatantly rejected him? Worry started to fill his chest, and he was sure it was written quite clearly on his face.

A hand came out to smooth the lines of worry etched into his features, and he leaned into the touch, grabbing the hand that was on his cheek and holding it there. “Don’t get me wrong puppy, I love kissing you.” The hand pulled out of his grasp. “But we can’t do it out in the open for everyone else to see….We have to be careful. You understand me right Tetsu?”

Of course he understood. He wasn’t an idiot, despite what some people might tell you. Their relationship had to be kept a secret. Hell even the fact that they knew each other had to be a secret. “Right…We can’t make out in public.” Tetsu winked. “I got it.” Just because they could ‘be’ together in public, didn’t mean they couldn’t be together in public though. With that thought he grabbed onto Suzu’s hand, pulling him around the corner. “Just because we can’t touch each other doesn’t mean I can’t show you around.” He smiled back at the perplexed teenager. “Come on I’ll give you the official tour.”

To this Suzu smiled, and affectionately squeezed his hand back. His cheeks tinted a little at that, and turned back to the front, trying to hide the smile that cracked his face. For some reason just leading the white haired boy around like this made him nervous, and when he was nervous he pretty much talked whoever was around’s ear off…Suzu was no exception.

As he led him around, he pointed out various buildings, giving quick explanations for all them. “That’s the kitchen. Shinpachi does most of the cooking…if you can call it that…Most of it’s terrible.” They moved on. “That’s the training hall. There’s a closet in there that I sleep in…and everyone else stays there during the night too. Well except the captains…they all have their own rooms.” He pointed north. “That’s where Mr. Hijikata’s room is, and Mr. Yamanami’s, and I guess Mr. Kondo’s too.” They walked past the well, and towards where Susumu had a scarecrow dummy up for practicing, and that’s when a thought occurred to him. “Oh Suzu you’ve gotta meet this guy here. He’s a pretty big bastard most the time, but he’s my best friend so you two should get along.”

Tetsu glanced back to see a pouty look on the boy’s face. “But Tets I thought I was your best friend.” He stopped in his tracks, actually getting Suzu to run into him, and glancing around to make sure no one was looking, placed a quick kiss on the bridge of the pail haired boy’s nose.

“You are…but he’s a different kind of friend.” He immediately began pulling on his arm again, heading to where Susumu usually hung out and sulked. Sure enough, the ninja was there meditating.

“Susumu I’m back!” He shouted happily, glad to see his friend again. He was also kind of excited to introduce the two. After all Susumu knew about them, and when he showed him that Suzu wasn’t as bad of a guy as he thought he was the three of them would all get along swimmingly.

“Tetsunosuke stop making so much nose. I was in the middle of something you know. Now if you insist on staying wait a minute.” The bastard didn’t even turn around when he said that.

He glanced over to where Suzu was standing right beside him, and saw that he was staring at the ninja with utter dislike. “You’re best friends with the spy that used to follow us?” Tetsu practically winced at how hard his hand was now being squeezed. If it wasn’t though he would have hit himself in the head with it. How could he have been so stupid? He had forgotten all about their distaste for each other. Well Suzu had a distaste for him anyways…and judging by how Susumu stiffened at hearing the voice he would have to say he probably felt the same way.

Susumu calmly turned around, slowly getting to his feet. The glare he gave Suzu was really unbridled. “Ichimura can I talk to you outside for a moment?” His Kyoto drawl was calm, but anyone could tell that he was about to get screamed at.

Tetsu kicked at the floor, really regretting this whole coming to see Susumu thing. “Yeah I guess so…” With a nod Susumu walked to the door frame, and Tetsu was going to walk out in front of him, but the hand that was joined with his held steadfast.

Suzu was taking turns glaring at Susumu, and giving him a look of concern. That was when it occurred to Tetsu…Suzu was worried about what the ninja would do to him. He felt his heart flutter, and ended up wrapping his arms around the other teenagers neck, giving him a quick kiss.

He was immediately pushed away as Suzu stared at him in both shock and anger. Well he would be mad wouldn’t he? He had just told them to keep their relationship under wraps and he kissed him in front of a spy for Hijikata. “Don’t give me that look Suzu.” He said smirking. Truthfully he was kind of proud to know something that the other boy didn’t. As for Susumu he was trying not to look at their exchange in the corner. “I told you Susumu was my best friend…He already figured out about us through some persuasion techniques he has.”

Suzu crossed his arms and glared. “I swear brat, you have the biggest mouth.”

Feeling exceptionally playful, Tetsu stuck his tongue out at him. “Yeah, well all the better to kiss you with.” Before Suzu could respond he pushed him up against the wall, going in for another kiss. This one was thankfully not cut short, and he actually gasped in pleasure when Suzu twined their tongues together.

In the background he thought he heard a disgusting. “I’m going to wait outside” come from Susumu, but he really couldn’t think about that at the moment. All he could think about was Suzu, and how utterly talented he was with his mouth. This had really been the first proper kiss since Shimabara, and as Suzu changed their positions so that he was the one doing the pinning, Tetsu realized that he was unfortunately going to have to cut it short.

He turned his head to the side, moaning when the kisses intended for his lips fell to his neck. “Suzu I gotta…” His thought scattered when his pulse was lightly bitten. “Mmm…come on stop. I gotta go talk to Susumu before he gets mad.”

Their eyes met for only a moment as Suzu quite bluntly said the word “No.” before once again joining their mouths. Their once innocent kissing had turned much more heated, and two arms came around to wrap on the back of his thighs, lifting his legs up to wrap around Suzu’s waist. He knew he needed to go talk to Susumu, he really did, but he couldn’t seem to break away from the kiss. His hands went to tangle in the cotton white hair, and he pushed off the back of the wall, making Suzu support his weight on his own. He was doing a pretty good job about holding him up to, that is until Tetsu accidentally kicked the back of one of his knees, knocking his legs out from under him. This turned into a disaster as Suzu fell backwards, a surprised redhead falling with him.

They ended up sprawled in a big pretzel with Tetsu on top. “Ow!” Suzu whined as he rubbed the back of his head where it had hit the floor. “What the hell Tetsu!? Here I am trying to kiss you and you actually trip me?”

Putting on an apologetic face, Tetsu tried to think up a way to explain his clumsiness. Finally he just decided to apologize like hell, and hope that it worked. “I’m so sorry baby…It’s just I’m not too good with the whole coordination thing, and you got me kinda distracted.”

To his immense relief Suzu didn’t seem in the least bit mad, in fact he seemed rather amused over the whole thing. “Baby?” Oh…He had called him baby hadn’t he? He hadn’t meant to do that…It just sort of came out.

“I’m sorry…Does it make you mad? Cuz I just saw you, and it kinda felt right.” His head was grabbed, and a soft kiss was placed on his forehead.

“It’s fine brat…” Tetsu tried not to look too offended by the fact that he had just been referred to as a brat. It was Suzu after all, and he had always called him that. In a way it had almost become a pet name too. When his cheek was stroked he snapped back to reality. “I have business with these wolves all day, and so I probably won’t get to see you until later.” A smile spread across his face. “But I did enjoy the tour.” His smile widened as he glanced down to their position. “And all the little things of course.” Tetsu couldn’t help it, he blushed. Suzu leaned in to give him a chaste kiss. “Bye brat.” Before the redhead could responded he had already untangled their bodies.

Suzu opened up the screen, giving Susumu a cold look as he passed. “You can go in now kunoichi.” He sneered at him. “I warmed him up for you.” Tetsu blushed again. What the hell was that supposed to mean? Damn…sometimes Suzu could be like the biggest prick in the world. Though Susumu managed to give him a look of equal venom. They really were more alike than it seemed.

“So did you screw him right here in my room…or did you dry hump out of respect.” The spy chastised. Yeah, them making out probably wasn’t the best idea, but he didn’t need to be such an asshole about it.

“Don’t be such a bastard Susumu. I tried to get away…” He glanced to the floor, a smile spreading across his face. “It’s just he can be pretty persuasive when he wants to be.” He looked up. “So what did you want to talk about?”

Susumu crouched down, coming to join him on the floor. “Where to start Tetsunosuke…Do you even know the seriousness of what you’re doing?”

“Oh come on Susumu don’t overreact…We were just kissing.” Tetsu tried, but then he figured they might not have been on the same wavelength when the spy yelled.

“Not that you idiot!…him…here…He’s for the other side Tetsu. I don’t think Hijikata or anyone else knows about how he was Yoshida’s page, but it doesn’t change the fact that he was.”

Tetsu’s eyes widened in fear. “Susumu you’re not gonna…” He looked up into his black eyes. “You’re not gonna tell on him are you?” He walked forward on his knees so that he was right in front of his friend. “Cuz if anyone found out they would hurt him…” He laid his hands on Susumu’s knees, squeezing them as he tried to hold back his worried tears. “I can’t let him get hurt.”

The spy was up until this point glancing to the side during his little ordeal, but he turned his head so that their eyes met. “Is he up to anything Ichimura?…You talk to him so I know you would know. Does he plan to do anything to endanger the Shinsengumi?”

His breath caught in his throat, and he glanced away. He couldn’t take looking into his eyes anymore…Not after what he had just asked him. How could he tell Susumu that Suzu was innocent when he in fact planned to do exactly what he thought? Could he lie to him…his best friend who he had always been honest with?

A hand dragged his face back, and he knew his answer. “Of course he doesn’t. Suzu’s just here to help strengthen the ties of his business. He doesn’t care about the feud between the Choshu and Shinsengumi anymore…He doesn’t care about any sort of revolution.” Words that he wished were true. “He was only involved because his master was, and now that he’s dead Suzu’s free.”

Susumu was studying his face, looking to see if he was lying. “Promise me Tetsunosuke.”

“I promise.” He said it without thinking, but apparently that wasn’t enough for his friend.

“You promise?” He seriously starting to consider the fact that Susumu had gone senile early.

“I promise.” Hopefully this time it had more of an affect.

“You promise he’s completely benign.” What the hell was wrong with him?

“Yes Susumu…What the hell I already said I promised.” To this he received a flick in the nose.

“That’s three time you promised Ichimura…and hopefully you won’t have to break that promise.” The redhead’s eyebrows furrowed.

“You know you’re really weird sometimes Susumu. What was the point of all that?”

In answer his spikes got ruffled. “The point of it was that now I’m deciding to trust you and keep this little secret.” Tetsu smiled. He knew Susumu would come through for him in the end. He always did. “Now has anyone else here at headquarters met Suzu before yesterday?”

So he was helping him now?…This is great. Though, Tetsu grimaced, if Suzu showed his true colors it would be nearly impossible to look Susumu in the eye. As to the question, Tetsu seriously thought on it, and almost yelped when he realized something very important. “Shit! Tatsu…he met Suzu at Shimabara.” His voice rose a few octaves due to his sheer panic. “He knows we’re friends!”

Comforting hands were placed on his shoulders as he practically hyperventilated from worry. “Tetsunosuke calm down. It’ll be fine…Just let me take care Tatsunosuke.” He gave him a smirk. “I dare say he’s easier to deal with than his younger brother.”

“Hey! What the hell is that supposed to mean?” He glared. “You’re not so easy to deal with either you bastard.” After venting, he thought back to that last statement. In his head he could see a maniacal Susumu tying Tatsu to his practice scarecrow and threatening to throw a knife somewhere very painful if he didn’t cooperate. “Susumu I don’t think you should castrate my brother.”

Susumu was looking at him rather strangely, and it was only after he thought about that he realized he might have a reason to. He tapped on top of his red spikes, making his skull make a hollow nose. “No offense Ichimura…but you know you’re fucked in the head, right?”

He crossed his arms over his chest, glaring the other way. “Would you just shut the hell up you stupid bastard and tell me how you’re going to deal with Tatsu.”

The older boy pushed up from the floor, walking over to the exit. “Why that’s simple…I’m just going to tell him that his little brother has a boyfriend, and if anyone found out that Suzu would be killed and you would have to commit seppuku.”

“Wow…Isn’t that a little harsh?” He didn’t think Tatsu could deal with that kind of stress. He would probably have a nervous breakdown.

Susumu was on his way out, but then he turned back. “See there’s the kicker Tetsunosuke…I’d be telling him the truth.” His eyes widened as he gaped at the spy. How could he have just told him that if this got out they were dead?…And how could he tell him so calmly at that? “So if I were you…I’d make sure I didn’t break that promise of mine.” There was a warning tone in his voice, and Tetsu got chills just thinking about what would happen if he actually did. If Suzu went through with his plans and failed, would he be killed as well?

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The rest of the day had gone by in a slow drip as thoughts of what the future might hold plagued him. He had felt numb all day, so much in fact that he hadn’t even felt up to eating dinner. After he finished his chores he headed back to the training hall, practically collapsing on his own bed roll in the closet. He couldn’t let Suzu go through with his plans. He had to find a way to stop him…Now more than ever.

Moonlight filtered in through the cracks in his door, and he took comfort in hearing the snores of all the members. At least they had the luxury of being able to get to sleep. He had a feeling that this bought of insomnia he seemed to have would last him all night. Sleep seemed even further away still when he saw a shadow creeping towards his door…The shadow was too quiet to even here, and if he hadn’t been awake to see it he would never have known it was coming at all.

His hand slowly stretched underneath his pillow where his short sword was kept. If this shadow was coming for him then he would not be caught off guard. As soon as his fingers touched the hilt, the door slid open, revealing just who was on the other side. His heart was beating fast, but it calmed down just slightly when he saw that it was only Suzu. The pale haired boy had a finger on his lips, bading him to remain silent as he crawled into his room with him.

“Suzu what are you!…” When he realized how loud he was talking, he lowered his voice to a whisper. “What are you doing here? If you get caught it’s both our heads.”

The teenager didn’t seem to be listening though, because instead of leaving, he just pushed on Tetsu’s shoulders till he fell backwards. “You worry too much puppy. Everyone is stone drunk from dinner this evening. The leaders made it a celebration to welcome me…everyone got drunk off their asses.” His hand ran through his unruly red hair. “Why weren’t you there?”

Tetsu turned his face to the side on his pillow. It didn’t seem to occur to him at the moment that Suzu was currently straddling his waist…He was still a little too preoccupied with his earlier conversation with Susumu. “I was worried.”

Suzu started laying kisses down the side of his cheek, managing to get out “About what?” as he did so.

As much as he loved that feeling, he knew that he couldn’t be distracted while he said this, so he turned his face back, making it so their foreheads rested together. “I don’t want you to do anything right now Suzu. The Shinsengumi will kill you if they find out you have something planned.”

To his disappointment Suzu pulled away. The teenager sat up, staring down at him with distrust. “What brought this on all of a sudden?”

He reached up to him, but when Suzu avoided his hands, they fell back to his side in defeat. “I was talking to Susumu about it all…” That look of distrust soon turned into one of betrayal.

“He turned you against me?” His eyebrows knitted together in worry, and he quickly sat up, pulling the pale haired teenager towards him.

“Of course not Suzu…I told you I’m with you till the end.” He pulled away from his chest to look into his face. “It’s just they’re not really all that trusting, and if you try something now you could fail and kill us both.”

To Tetsu’s immense relief a smile came back to the face he adored so much. “Is that all?” He took his hand, placing a kiss on the back of it. “You don’t have to worry about that. I told you I wasn’t doing anything right now.” He sighed as a kiss was then placed on his temple. “Right now it’s only you beautiful…I don’t want anything else.” He tried his hardest to ignore the ‘right now’ part of that statement, and instead focus on the sweet sentimentality behind it.

He was once more pushed backwards, and when he hit Suzu attacked his mouth. Tetsu closed his eyes during the kiss, just letting himself feel those warm lips on his own, and that silky tongue dancing in his mouth. He could hear a rustling of clothes, but didn’t really think anything of it until he felt Suzu removing his own night clothes.

His eyes snapped open in shock, and to his surprise he saw that Suzu was naked from the waist up, and for that matter, so was he. “Will you let me Tets?…Have you I mean.” Have him?…It was an exhilaratingly scary thought.

“Suzu I don’t know…What if someone heard?” Their mouths joined once again, and when they pulled away Suzu was smirking.

“Well then we’ll just have to be extra quiet, now won’t we?” Suzu hands traced over his skin, and went to remove the tie that held the rest of his clothing together. When it was gone Tetsu turned beet red at the thought of being completely naked, and the way that Suzu was staring down at him almost hungrily didn’t seem to be helping. “You’re gorgeous…” His hand traveled the length of his body, stopping to just ghost over his thigh. “every last bit of you.” Where his hands had just paved the road, his mouth soon followed. Searing lips laid butterfly kisses down his chest, all over his abdomen, and they making their way down south past his bellybutton.

During all of this Tetsu was a mess of emotions. He was torn between moaning, crying, and screaming out in pleasure. As Suzu’s lips touched the sensitive flesh of his thigh, he knew he couldn’t take it anymore. Grabbing his head, Tetsu dragged the boy’s lips back to his own. While they were kissing, the more experienced of the two grabbed the redhead’s hand, dragging it to the hem of his own pants. Once it was there he immediately let go, letting it once more travel across his body.

He knew what Suzu wanted him to do, and so with shaky hands he lowered the pants down past his waist so that they pooled at his ankles. This caused Suzu to kiss him harder, and Tetsu cried out into that mouth as he ground both their bodies together. Their bodies meshed perfectly together, and yet not at all at the same time. They were complete opposites. Where Suzu’s body was hard and lean, Tetsu’s was more slim and petite. Plus their skin clashed together as his pale hand twined with Suzu’s own tanned one. It didn’t seem to matter though. Everything felt perfect.

This was really happening. The thought struck him like a lightning bolt, and suddenly he felt afraid. They were really going to do this, and then there would be no turning back. “No.” He hadn’t meant to say it out loud, but Suzu had evidently heard it for he pulled back from where he was kissing his neck.

“No?” His voice was heavy with lust. “What do you mean?” It seemed to be taking great effort on his part just to get that sentence out.

Tetsu turned to the side, suddenly ashamed that he had actually chickened out and told him to stop. “I can’t do this right now…I’m not ready yet to go all the way.” Hands tightened on his hips, as if trying to grasp the situation.

“Are you sure?” Suzu’s breath was coming out in short pants, and as the redhead looked into his eyes he could see how they were completely clouded over with arousal.

“I’m sorry.” Suzu looked like he was about ready to cry, but instead just simply nodded and rolled off of him. He lay on his back beside him, obviously trying to get his libido in check, and Tetsunosuke felt like the worst person on the planet.

He touched Suzu’s chest. “I’m sorry Suzu…Please don’t hate me because of this.” Seriously he was like the biggest loser ever. He was 16 and turning down sex.

The hand that was laid on his tanned chest was pushed off. “I don’t hate you. Just don’t touch me right now.” Tetsu was hurt, and the other teenager seemed to realize it, for he turned to face him. “I didn’t mean it sound like that Tets. It’s just my body wants to take you right now, and if you keep touching me like that I won’t be able to control myself.”

It was official, he had never felt so guilty in his life. He stared down at Suzu’s clenched face as he was obviously trying to get himself under control, and he came to a decision. Crawling over, he got on top of the darker teenager’s body, shutting his eyes as their arousals slid together. He also heard a moan come from Suzu’s mouth. “Tetsu what are you doing?…I told you that…” But Tetsu never got to find out what he had told him, because his own hand had grabbed Suzu’s member, giving it one stroke. This almost got him to cry out, and Suzu actually had to place a hand over his own mouth to cover the sound.

His chest was rising up and down quickly as Tetsu continued with his ministrations. Truthfully he wasn’t all that sure what to do, but from the mewls of pleasure Suzu was making, he seemed to be enjoying it. This gave him incentive to go faster, and as he did so one of Suzu’s knees rose. At first he had no idea why, but every time he moved his own enlarged member would rub against the tanned boy’s smooth thigh.

Never in his life had he felt such pleasure, and his hips bucked as he moved even faster. Keeping up the pace with both his hips and his hand, Tetsu leaned forward, connecting their mouths as he did so. Suzu’s hand came to the back of his head, and pulled him in even deeper. His eyes were shut, but stars seemed to burst in the back of his vision nonetheless.

The friction was becoming too much for him, and he felt something bubbling to the surface further with every stroke. It almost felt like he was going to explode, and when the pleasure he was feeling seemed to reach its pentacle, he did just that. Shooting a jet of a white substance against Suzu’s creamy thigh. His entire head clouded, and he collapsed on top of Suzu, forgetting all about what he had been doing. That is until his lover wrapped a shaky arm around his head. “Baby…please finish.” Suzu’s voice was constricted, and almost sounded pained. Again Tetsu felt absolutely terrible, and he kissed the sweaty boy’s temple in apology. He once again started his tempo, only this time both of Suzu’s legs wrapped around his waist, rocking their bodies together to his own tempo. It wasn’t long before the body underneath him stiffened, and he came into his willing hand. Though that didn’t make him feel any better about delaying his release.

Suzu didn’t seem too upset by it though, because he simply pulled the redhead towards him so that he was snuggling against his chest. A smile covered Tetsu’s face, and it felt like it would never leave. “Suzu that was so amazing…I’ve never…” He tried to catch his breath. “That’s the first time I’ve ever done something like that.”

He received a quick kiss, and when they pulled away Suzu was also smiling. “And you were very good at it.” His hand walked along Tetsu’s ribcage. “My playful little puppy.” He would have said something back, really he would have, but at that moment the largest yawn he had ever had in his life made him hold off.

His sweat soak hair was pet. “You look exhausted Tets…Why don’t you try and get some sleep?” There was really nothing he would rather do right then, but a question popped into his mind.

“Where are you going to sleep?” Suzu stretched his arms above his head, arching his back until he cracked.

“Well I was planning on sleeping here.” He turned towards him, giving him a playful look. “That is unless I’m not wanted.”

Tetsu immediately moved to kiss him, making Suzu sure that he was definitely wanted. If he was given the choice he would never leave his arms again, but… “What if they find you in here while you’re sleeping?”

Soft laughter made his lover’s ribcage vibrate. “Didn’t I tell you not to worry so much?” He was about to reply, but Suzu changed their position. He lay them both on their side, so that he was spooning the smaller teenager from behind. A warm breath tickled his ear, letting him know that Suzu was laying right next to him. “I’ll sneak out before dawn…I promise you that.” A small kiss was laid on the base of his neck. “Now go to sleep.” Even though his mind was still going a million miles an hour, his body followed Suzu’s command, and in no time whatsoever it seemed he was fast asleep, snuggled comfortably in his new found lover’s arms.
