Always Watching

So i just realised that the group chat a few chapters ago is basically 5wirl + honorary member Albedo and then i realised i forgot Heizou so i added him in now to make up for the fact I've been gone for so long 😅

Heizou - Handcuffs (get it? Because detective/cop? Im kidding its just all i could think of)

!!!NOT PROOF READ!!!

《《《 ○ ○ ○ 》》》

People were cheering throughout the house, clearly already drunk, it was so crowded around the pair under the mistletoe

Everything around them was like a dream.
Or maybe a movie?

Drunken and sloppy kisses of random couples in the corners and the hallways, hazy and forgetful hands wandering across eachother, a numb but at the same time tingling feeling as they pressed against eachother, moving slowly, gentle.

Ruby red eyes watched carefully from the second floor balcony at two specific people entangled with eachother in amongst the crowd.

Two people that were dared to kiss by a festive tradition and have instead turned to what he would call a borderline makeout session in the middle of the hall.

They pulled away from eachother and Lyney gently took his hand leading Scaramouche away from the spot light and further into the house as everyone went back to what they were doing, almost as if the kiss never happened.

Unsure of what to do in the situation, Scaramouche let himself get dragged through the house, the feeling that he was being watched seemed to follow them as they moved through the different rooms.

They settled in the living room door way, far enough from the ongoing commotion but close enough that they weren't entirely secluded from the party.

Crimson eyes watched silently from the second floor as their owner's mind wandered in thought.

He didn't know how he felt recently. Gorou was amazing, he was kind and loving, but Kazuha could tell that when Gorou looked at him he was hoping for someone else and...

Maybe...

He was looking for someone else too.

Someone that was also amazing, could be kind and loving, but also stubborn and argumentative, he liked that, he likes when things aren't easy and straightforward, he likes knowing they have flaws because thats what makes them real.

Thats what makes them human.

Being with Gorou was like being in a movie or a romance book, they're always together, they're never fighting, they're always a picture perfect couple.

Being with Scaramouche was like living, difficult but beautiful, cherishing every moment and working to make it last.

Gorou had gone to explore the party on his own after some liquid encouragement from the 'fruit' punch in his cup.

He had caught a glimpse of him up on the third floor talking with Itto, or more likely flirting.

Despite Gorou getting into a relationship the 2 of them had continued to flirt with eachother, on a few occasions even with Kazuha present and overhearing.

Not that Kazuha cared too much, he hadn't exactly refrained from flirting with another recently either.

That doesn't make it better though, does it?

He looked back to the third floor, watching as his boyfriend and the signature head of white hair disappeared into one of the rooms, the door closing behind them softly, as if trying not to draw attention to sight of the duo behind it, he's sure if he was closer he would've heard the click of a lock.
