The warm sun rays of summer fell over the bed, in which both Japan and Philip were laid lazily, soft cloths over their bodies and ice-cream pots on their hands. The sweetness of the desert was good, but the best thing was the coldness counteracting the abrasive heat of the summer. The japanese was resting on his left side, with his left arm over the pillow, holding his head and his other arm over his body, moving lazily from time to time in order to get more ice-cream. Philip was resting on his abdomen, elbows supporting his torso in a pose that made him look somewhat like a kitten.
They had been in silence for quite a while, just eating ice-cream and enjoying the silent company of each other, so when Japan finally spoke, the filipino jumped a bit, slightly startled by the sudden words.
"What do you like about me?" The pale country asked, his brown eyes showing that he's serious.
"What? Mmm, I don't know." The orient pearl replied promptly, "Lots of things."
"Lots of things?" Japan echoed, and took a big spoon of ice-cream, and started licking it really slowly,
"Like what?" The sun-kissed country seemed troubled, looking up and then down again, eating spoon after spoon of ice-cream without getting to a conclusive response.
Japan narrowed his eyes a bit, feeling the melting ice-cream dripping from his spoon that fell to his fingers.
"I can't put it into words." Philip finally surrendered. "Why do you ask that all of the sudden?"
"I was just wondering." The japanese said vaguely in a bored tone of voice, leaning forward his own hand to lick the ice-cream.
"Wondering huh.." The orient pearl looked at him with curiosity,
"Yes." Japan answered with a fake smile.
"So.. what do you like about me??" Philip asked back, thinking of that question as some kind of game.
"Well, lots of things." The taller country joked back with a playful grin, receiving an adorable- but clearly annoyed pout from his lover.
"I like your face for example." And saying that he put the tip of his spoon over Philip's nose, staining it with cold ice-cream. The filipino trembled a bit with the sudden change of temperature and moved back, lifting a hand in an attempt to clean his nose, but the japanese didn't let him. Even before he could notice, Japan's face was already next to him, and the warm tongue was licking the stain of ice-cream.. Flustering to the contact, Philip was left speechless.
"And that kind of face too." The taller country laughed a bit, kissing the cheek with a soft smile, different from the other smiles he had. A real smile.
"I like that, " Philip said when he saw that expression, "I like when you don't fake your smiles... Because that means you are happy being with me."
"I didn't know you can really say some embarrassing things sometimes~" Japan mocked the words of the filipino, making him frown again. "But I like that too. " he added with a wink.
"W-well, I don't hate.. your corny jokes," He lied a bit,
"And I don't hate how sincere you are," Japan said placing his warm hand over Philip's back, caressing him softly, "And I really like the feeling of your skin~"
"I like... the warmth of your hands..." the sun-kissed country continued looking deeply into his lover's eyes... those chestnut orbs that were always so superficial, so concealed, and that only with him showed the profundity of their reality, "And the tone of your eyes.."
"I like the color of your eyes too, so dim sometimes but when light passes it, a silver and a pool of honey shine through." The japanese smiled back, touching the orient pearl's nose with the tip of his own.
"Wow, I didn't know you can say embarrassing things~" Philip playfully mocked back, chuckling under his breath.
"And the traits of your face are really cute too." Japan continued.
"You... are really attractive too, " The filipino answered to the compliment he had received and added, "Your hair... I like it..."
"You like my hair? " the japanese asked back, laying a soft kiss over the filipino's lips.
"That was the reason why I got interested in you.. at first," Philip continued opening his lips as if he wanted another kiss.
"M-my hair?" Japan voiced to himself.
"But then I knew that you had a lot of other things that I liked about you." Japan noticed the gleam from those mismatched eyes.
"Then.." The japanese narrowed his eyes a bit, answering the silent beg of the sun-kissed country by placing another kiss a bit longer on that soft lips.
"I was attracted to your cheeks," Philip blinked owly at that.
"My chee- Wait a minute-" The filipino squinted at his lover. Getting the hint, Japan immediately defended himself,
"No! No! That's not what I meant. " Japan sweatdropped, "It's because you were so different outside the meeting room when you're with your friends." He grinned at the memory of the first time they spoke to each other. Japan lifted a hand, tracing with his index finger, the traits of Philip's face.. the eyebrows, the cheeks, and the lips.
"I see, " was all that the filipino could reply, but his gaze to Japan showed wonderment.
"I never really imagined that I could muster up the courage and ask you out!" He grinned, placing another kiss, this time on the cheek he was caressing with his hand.
"I mean there are so many people around you-"
"But you did." Philip poked his lover's cheek, grinning widely.
"Yeah, I did." Japan's ears turned red, dusting his nose in embarrassment.
"By the way.." The filipino scooped a bit of ice cream, and turned to his lover.
