[ It’s funny, almost, to say all these things and make all these promises without actually saying the words that are burning on his tongue, demanding to be said. It’s the adoration, the want, the warmth, all of it building and bubbling under the surface, making him yearn for something that’s right there in front of him. Aki has never been adept at this, never been good at it, but he wants to be.
He loves Tsurumaru. He wants to be good enough.
It’s almost too easy to give into him, because it feels perfectly natural. It feels right.
After everything they’ve done and been through together… This is what they’ve earned. ]
You’re mine. You’re my partner, Tsurumaru, you’re…
[ Breathless, filled with emotion, Aki leans close.
He doesn’t deserve this. He’s going to die. Tsurumaru will be left alone.
But he’ll have Denji. He’ll have memories. Maybe in the next life they can be together again. ]
I’ll be yours too. However you want me. I’ll stay with you.
