Under the Shining Lights

Don't Worry About Me

"He's driving me crazy!" Leo groaned, flopping over on Yuichi's lap, "I swear to god I'm gonna commit a crime!"

This was the scene: Leo and Yuichi, fresh from the club, still dusted in leftover glitter, a little tired and a little achy. Yuichi was sitting on the couch, taking a moment to himself before gearing up to shower. Then there was Leo, who was wound up all night, finally unleashing all that was in his head while taking up most of Yuichi's personal space. 

"I hope you're not planning on committing murder," Yuichi chuckled, "I love you, but I'm not gonna help you kill a guy,"

"Is there no loyalty anymore!?" Leo lamented, throwing his head back, "Can't even convince your lover to murder with you anymore!"

"Oh, hush!" Yuichi laughed, tickle-attacking Leo, the turtle shrieking as he tried to get away. There was a struggle, an epic battle as prey tried to flee from the predator, a fruitless endeavor that ended with two giggling and panting beings, one defeated, the other triumphant.

"Haha, how do you always make things better?" Leo asked fondly, loosing Yuichi's ears from his top knot. The rabbit hummed, leaning into Leo's touch.

"I could ask you the same,"

"Oh, please! I haven't done anything for you," Leo flushed, gently massaging the base of Yuichi's ears.

"Not true!" Yuichi huffed, "You gave me a knife! And you do things like this for me!" He gestured to his head, "Besides, I'm not with you because you do things for me, I'm with you because I think you're really cool and awesome and amazing and beautiful and--"

"Okay! Okay, I get it!" Leo chuckled, covering Yuichi's mouth, "Me too. The fact your love language is 'acts of service' is just a bonus,"

Giggling, Yuichi nuzzled their noses together, pressing butterfly kisses all over Leo's face. Leo scrunched up his nose, pressing up to give Yuichi a proper kiss, letting out a satisfied breath. They separated, looking at each other fondly. Then the state of their tired bodies finally set in, the two feeling gross.

"Hey, you wanna join me in the shower?" Yuichi asked, catching Leo off guard. Leo spluttered, his face turning bright red. Yuichi just laughed at him, getting up and starting to strip, leaving Leo flustered on the couch, "I mean if you're not ready..."

"No! I'm ready!" Leo shouted, stumbling off the couch and tripping after Yuichi, "I'm ready,"

Yuichi grinned, leading Leo to his bathroom and dropping his shirt on the floor. The two entered the surprisingly spacious room, the dim lights making Leo's skin prickle. Leo found his eyes drawn to Yuichi's back, the sturdy muscle just visible beneath his fur, tracing tantalizingly down toward his tight ass. Yuichi glanced over his shoulder, raising an eyebrow at Leo's blatant staring. Leo jumped, quickly removing his hoodie and mask.

At his shorts, he hesitated. Sure, the turtle went around practically naked twenty-four-seven, but never without his shorts. It was the least bit of covering they each wore, just like their masks, it felt strange to take them off in front of someone. It wouldn't make much of a difference, the shorts usually slipped under his shell, so from a distance it looked like they weren't even there. 

Finally shedding his shorts, Leo threw them down with the rest of his clothes, finally in the nude. The shower came to life and Leo glanced over to see Yuichi in his boxers leaning into the shower. He stood up straight, turning and grinning at Leo. 

"Still wearing your boxers?" Leo asked. Yuichi shrugged.

"I'll take 'em off in the shower," He said, offering his hand to Leo. He pulled him into the shower, the two being washed over with warm water. Leo closed his eyes, taking a moment to enjoy the feeling of warmth that enveloped him. Opening his eyes back up, his gaze met Yuichi's, his soaked fur glued down to his body, his usual fluffiness replaced with a slicked-back look.
