A Mess of Magic and Mates

Chapter 4

They decided to split up, Oikawa going to the beach and Kiyomi the kitchen. The reasoning was Sakusa can't breathe underwater, but Oikawa almost can. Sakusa made him promise not to use any difficult spells, anything that would cause another fainting spell.

He headed further inland, walking past buildings and the turnoff to the packhouse, the vampire common rooms and away from the direction of the Mage tower. Further away from the classrooms and winged creatures dorms, for faeries and shifters. The mers lived in huts by the water. He looked at the forest that the wolves patrolled and the faeries enchanted, taking in the scenery, others walking past and around him, far enough away to be comfortable.

Sakusa walked towards the kitchen, thinking longingly about Oikawa's lovely body, and other things as well. He pushed open the doors in a love-sick haze, which Iwaizumi instantly scented.

"Someone's got it bad. This would happen to have anything to do with our new mate, huh?" Sakuse simply pouted and blushed a little, the tips of his ears red. "Come here," said Hajime, and Sakusa wrapped his arms around the alphas neck as he mixed some ingredients.

"Taste," ordered Haji, dipping his finger into the mix and bringing it up to Sakusa's mouth. He licked it and hummed in happiness.

Iwaizumi and Sakusa sat in contented silence, they weren't very social unlike their two mates. While Atsumu liked to go out on dates, Iwaizumis perfect date was simply being with his mate, while for Sakusa it would maybe be a nice dinner, or once more, just something with the four of them.

Iwaizumi gave Sakusa a little forehead kiss, and he then went and poured the batter into a pan, making deserts now instead of lunch which was already done and sent up to the mages. Sakusa stood and started on the dishes, humming quietly to himself. After a day of meeting and talking to new people, being somewhere quiet and clean with his mate was exactly what he needed. It was calming, and he could sense Haji was at peace as well.

Hajime was watching Sakusa out of the corner of his eye. He thought that having a new mate might stress the vampire out, Atsumu certainly had, but he looked content, and was definitely happy when he walked into the kitchen.

Iwa took that as a sign that the fainting spell he saw earlier had been resolved, and that Oikawa had probably gone to go get Atsumu. He placed the cupcakes in the oven, and walked over to be beside Sakusa, who was still washing up.

They started a small conversation, talking about their days as usual while Iwazumi dried the dishes. After that they simply enjoyed each other's company while they waited for the cake to bake.

Once Oikawa had split off, he sprinted towards his dorm wearing just Sakua's shirt and boxers, using a hasty invisibility sigil as he fell through gardens and around gnomes. There were a strange amount of gnomes at this school.

His pants were gone, he didn't really know why, just realised after he took them off that he was too tired to summon clothes back again, and was now royally fucked as the schools wards continuously removed his glamor, and multiple students saw his sprint across the grass.

He ripped open his door and started flinging through his drawers, until he found some enchanted pants he was given for Christmas by his parents, black and waterproof. They would also dry easily, so he only had to contend with a wet shirt and hair.

He tucked Sakusa's shirt into the black pants, letting it hang loosely around his frame. After that he rolled up the sleeves to his elbow and used a teleportation spell to take him straight to the beach.

He opened his eyes to the cool sand under his feet and the soft cawing of birds. There were shrieks of happiness and cheers as the mers frolicked. Oikawa walked towards two familiar figures and sat beside them as they groomed their tails on the beach.
