never-fading sins tbh

[finethanks]

[He had agreed to the limitation of affection in public at first, but as the days went on and Eichi realized he couldn't just reach over to take Tsumugi's hand in a show of dominance, he realized that wasn't quite working for him. No amount of convincing was seeming to get through to him, as much as he wavered, and so here they are in the library, way too far apart for his liking.

But it might be that slight distance that has him wanting to close the gap. He's never experienced anything like this before. Longing had always been something related to his work, his schooling, his goal, but now he found himself tracing the curve of Tsumugi's shoulders as he babbled on about some sort of boring book Eichi doesn't really care about. Classes are over, he realizes with a glance over his shoulder to the rest of the empty library. There's no one in the immediate area.

So suddenly, he reaches out to take Tsumugi's hand. It's a gentle thing, despite where his thoughts are already rushing, soft and curling only a few of his fingers around Tsumugi's as he steps closer to him, gently guiding the book back to the shelf with his free hand. Enough of that.

He doesn't say a word yet, relying instead on the eager look in his eyes to do the talking first.]

[ it really was amazing, too incredible that they had just gotten away with something as risky as that in the library of all places. tsumugi hums at the kiss, and although he feels like he can't move at all, he forces himself to sit up to pull up his pants and button back his school blouse and blazer and sweater. he still has that excitable flush on his cheeks, but he'll try to regulate that once they freshen up at the bathroom.

but first, he has to make sure if eichi's all right after that. he did most of the work that it's a miracle that he hasn't passed out from overexertion just yet. ]

A-Are you okay, Eichi-kun? Can you still stand up?

[ can the both of them even get up on their feet after that? when you think about it, it's laughably ironic that the two people who's responsible for the school's machiavellian reformation are just so physically inactive. but tsumugi manages to get up anyway, his knees still shaking as he grabs hold of the bookcase. ]

We can go to the bathroom first and then to the clinic just to be safe...?

[finethanks]

[To be honest, he's so exhausted that he's not sure he can stand up. But he pushes past that, knowing that it's a risk and he might collapse for it, but needing to get out of here before he's seen. His clothes are bunched up and gathered to his chest, and he reaches with his free hand to grab for Tsumugi as help to stand.]

Yes, that sounds best. Let's hurry. [To the bathroom, where they can clean up and he can put his clothes back on and take a breath. Finally on his feet, he gives one last look over his shoulder before urging Tsumugi to move forward. Sneak away like this, shield him, make sure he doesn't freeze, it's fine!]
