(Slight Angst then fluff)

After the shigechi fight, josuke and okuyasu were still a bit typsy, they decided to stay at josukes house and chill in his room while listening to a bit of music, both sitting on the bed, its nearly sunset

Okuyasu looked over at josuke next to him, sitting cross-legged, he looked really focused so okuyasu decided to not say anything and listen to the music, he leaned back, resting his weight on his hands to support himself as he looked up at the ceiling and sighed, he noticed josuke move and turned his head to look at him, josuke was rubbing his eyes with the back of his hands, covering most of his face

"Ya tired josuke?" Okuyasu stared at him, assuming he was rubbing his eyes because he was tired, okuyasu looked back up at the ceiling, until a few moments later he heard sniffing
"Josuke?" Okuyasu turned back to look at him with a bit of concern on his face, he shifted his position while getting a bit closer to see what was wrong, his expression turned into a shocked worry when he saw the tears running down his face
"Josuke! What happened?!" Josuke turned to look at him, putting down his hands, seeing how upset he was made his heart wrench, Josuke's face was red and a bit puffy from crying and his eyes watery and red
"Why are you crying? Isnt that my job?" Okuyasu asked a bit playfully, trying to cheer him up a bit, seeing it not work made him worry more, a joke generally made him lighten up a bit

"I... I was... thinking, and-d then I-" josuke choked up while trying to explain his current situation, okuyasu turned and wrapped his arms around Josuke, rubbing lightly in a circle motion, comforting people wasn't his strong suit, but he tried his best, josuke was hugging him back with his chin on his shoulder, while grabbing at his uniform clenching the fabric in his fists
"I though a-about more dan-dangerous stand u-users and- and-" he was stuttering more
"I thought-t that... what if one d-day, you get an injury that I- I can't f-fix?" And this point he was full on sobbing

"C'mon man, Stop being like that! You can fix anything! And you know im a sympathetic crier..." okuyasu started, already starting to tear up, they may have been a bit drunk, but their feelings were very genuine, josuke probably wouldn't have cried if he was sober, but he wouldn't have said anything about it either

"I- I just don't want to l-lose you ok-okuyasu"

"Im- im not going a-anywhere..." okuyasu responded, crying a lot more now, he pulled away from the hug and looked at josuke
"Im just g-glad that you care about m-me that much!" He smiled with big tears running down his face

"O- of course I do! You're my everything!" Josuke smiled back at him

"Ya know, josuke, y-your the best guy that a-anyone could ever ask for, you're s-so smart, and nice, and cool, and-and..." okuyasu failed to get that last part out as he took Josuke's hands and held it between them at chest level, josuke understood what he ment and leaned in a bit closer, he tried to stretch out his neck a bit to reach okuyasu's forehead and pecked it lightly, when he retracted, okuyasu's face lit up

"Okuyasu, im sorry I-" he was cut off by okuyasu giving him a tackle hug, they landed on the bed with an 'oomf', okuyasu was on top of him, his arms were wrapped around josuke tightly, his head was on Josuke's chest, josuke was still processing what just happened, he slowly put an arm around okuyasu

"Ya have nothing to apologize for" they had both stopped crying, just leaving the occasional sniffle, okuyasu rubbed his face with his hand, trying to get the rest of the tears, josuke put his hand on okuyasu's head and stroked his hair lightly, okuyasu was a little surprised, but he quickly found it comforting, like a mother calming a child, Josuke's hand was to his side, okuyasu moved it up so he could hold it, once it was in the right position he put his hand on it and slowly intertwined their fingers, josuke didn't mind, in fact he liked holding his hand, it may have felt a bit rough, but he still loved it, they sat in a comfortable silence, just listening to the music, until a few minutes later when okuyasu broke the silence
"Hey, josuke"

"Hm?" He looked down a bit to look at him

"Is this... weird?"

"I dont think so, its nice" he looked back up at the ceiling

"But like, I've never heard of friends... cuddling, especially not like this, and now that I think about it, I've only seen people on tv shows cuddle, but they're always in a relationship" he tightened his grip a little

"Well, girls cuddle right?" He looked at okuyasu again

"But we aren't girls" okuyasu moved his head to look up at him "so doesn't this seem a little... gay?"

"W-what?" Josuke blushed at the mention of it, okuyasu was right, this DID seem gay, but, was it really that bad if it was? He stopped stroking his hair

"I asked if it seemed a bi-"

"I heard you the first time"

"oh, well, does it?" Josuke could tell he wasn't going to drop it, so he decided to be honest

"Even If it seems gay, does it really matter?"

"Hmm, I guess not" he looked down for a second but looked back up a second later
"But if it looks gay, wouldn't that mean that it is?!" Okuyasu said in a panicked tone, worrying what josuke would think, josuke laughed a bit, then realized it was a serious question, he looked at him again, and okuyasu had a bit of a worried expression, his worried face was adorable, he sort of wanted to kiss it, 'aw shit, I think I am gay' he thought, as he smiled at okuyasu

"Only if you want it to be..." he moved his head down and kissed his forehead, okuyasu's eyes widened as he realized this kiss had a different meaning behind it than before and blushed, he took a second but he scooted up a bit, now chest to chest and their faces only a few centimeters apart, josuke started to blush more, wondering what okuyasu was doing

"I guess I do..." he put his hand up to josuke's face and cupped his cheek 'is he going to kiss me?? Maybe he isn't thinking straight? (Well he's definitely not thinking straight) is he going to regret this later? Maybe he's... being... genuine, I wouldn't mind that...' thoughts racing through josuke's head, but he closed his eyes preparing for a kiss

he felt a kiss on his nose and opened one of his eyes in confusion, he saw a very smiley and blushing okuyasu, 'ah that makes sense, okuyasu doesn't seem like the kind to kiss first, even though he's very straight forward' josuke thought, 'hm, I think this is good... for now, I'll kiss him on the lips soon enough' josuke smirked a bit, okuyasu scooted back down and put his head on his chest, this time rubbing his cheek on him a bit, josuke put his hand back on okuyasu's head, he started stroking his hair again, now their cuddle felt a bit... different, neither of them minded, and soon they drifted asleep on each other, music playing softly in the background, everything felt peaceful... he had another thought right before he fell asleep 'i could get used to this.'
