Overflow - Hayaryuu

(A/N: Inspired by volume 18 chapter 99)

When Hayato woke up from his nap it was already dark outside and the only source of light in the room was a desk lamp which shone behind him.
Careful to not accidentally put pressure on his injured hand, he straightened himself up. With a light thud something fell to the ground.

It was his uniform jacket, which was draped over his shoulders not long ago.

The raven's eyes travelled from the jacket on the ground to where his father still sat. Back facing the boy and head tilted to the third stack of paper he was currently grading.

But different from how Hayato remembered the room before he fell asleep was the additional person sat beside the strict teacher. Said person also had his back turned towards him and head lowered in their notes as well.
It was a back so very familiar to him. The back of a certain someone who could warm his heart only by thinking about them.

Kashima..
Was he waiting for me?, Hayato thought

As if his thought was heard, the other boy turned towards him. Brown hair being whipped around although the movement wasn't big at all. ((A/N: *whispers* L'Oréal))
The brunette jumped slightly in surprise when he saw Hayato staring at him (cuz he didn't expect him to be awake already). For a while they kept staring into each other's eyes until..

„Your jacket will get dirty", Hebihara-sensei said.

And both boys' gaze flew to the still present chemistry teacher in the room. Realising that his father might or might've not seen him being totally whipped for a fellow classmate, friend and -most likely unknown to him- boyfriend, Hayato felt embarrassment creeping up in him. To not expose any more of his unusual behaviour, he immediately let his eyes wander back to the jacket on the ground and picked it up with his uninjured hand.

„Um, Hebihara-sensei, I think it is about time for us to go home. Thank you very much for indulging my favour!", Ryuuichi said and bowed before packing his bag hurriedly (but still somehow neatly).

With another slight bow and a grunt of acknowledgment (or whatever that noise is) from Hayato's part, the two boys left the room.

When they were outside of the school building, their hands intertwined naturally, walking side by side in comfortable silence under the moonlight (and lantern lights).

„Where are the brats actually?",Hayato asked, breaking the silence.
„Kamitani-sensei got off work earlier and picked them up from daycare. Which also means that it's not an excuse to hold hands for a bit longer when I say that I have to accompany you back home since I need to get Koutarou.", the brunette replied. His cheeks were flushed pink.

As they have been dating for quiet a while now both have graduated from full on red-pink faces at the slightest interactions to red-pink hues over the cheeks and the occasional reddened ears.

Hayato was better at controlling his blushing but the warmth cursing through and the slightly fastened heartbeat gave him away.

It was too difficult to control his overflowing feelings of love for the brown haired human being whose name is Kashima Ryuuichi.

Okay so I wrote this at 3am which is why it's this short and might kinda suck but I've tried my best.
Also in case anyone is wondering: Ryu ofc snatched Hayato's bag as soon as the left the room cuz holding hands gotta be a must man!
Hope y'all enjoyed!!

Might post a SaiUsa oneshot next time - just as a heads-up!
