Our Love Story

Chapter 19

Third Person POV

The next morning came and Onodera woke up. A heat pressed into his bare back and he turned, snuggling into Takano's chest. Onodera breathed gently, clutching tightly onto his back. He sighed.
"Morning~" Takano mumbled, kissing his head softly.
"Good morning..." Onodera quietly said as he closed his eyes again. Takano's hands ran down his bare back and Onodera relaxed into the touch of his calloused hands. They rested on his lower back and Onodera snuggled into his chest.
"We start back at work tomorrow..." Takano sighed, and Onodera groaned slightly, burying his face into his chest more. The rest of the day was quiet. They stayed in bed, still jet lagged. Takano would get out of bed to make something to eat and then climb back in again.
The next day they were back at work. Takano sat at his desk only to find a huge stack of papers to be filling out and filing through. He sighed, putting his feet up on the desk.
Onodera sat down at his own desk and turned the computer on. At that moment, Kisa-san walked in.
"Yahooooo~ Ricchan! How was your vacation?" Onodera gently blushed at the question.
"I-it was nice." He smiled simply before getting on with some work.
Takano got up from his seat to take a smoke. He walked passed Onodera and kissed his temple quickly as he walked passed.
Onodera blushed furiously and Kisa smiled widely, leaning over to Onodera.
"Ne, ne, Ricchan~" Onodera turned to him.
"Y-yes?"
"Are you and Takano..." Kisa leaned in even closer.
"An item?" Onodera's face felt like it was going to burst into flames.
"Uh-um..." Onodera stuttered.
"W-well... Umm..." He was still blushing wildly and Takano walked back in to see a blushing Onodera.
"Onodera...?" He questioned and Onodera quickly darted to look at him.
"T-Takano...!" Onodera exclaimed.
Takano looked over at Kisa.
"Why is he bright red?" Kisa grinned.
"Takano-sannnnn! Are you and Ricchan an item?" He asked gleefully and Takano smirked a bit. Quickly, he pulled Onodera's blushing face towards him and planted a quick kiss on his lips.
"Does that answer your question?" Takano asked and Kisa just stared.
Blushing even more, Onodera buried his face in his hands as Takano walked back to his desk.
Onodera eventually stopped blushing and got back to work.
When the day came to the end, Onodera packed his bag in order to leave for the night when Takano came up behind him, wrapping both arms around his waist. Onodera immediately turned bright red.
"Come to dinner with me, Princess." Takano requested and Onodera turned in his arms.
"O-okay. B-but let go of me... Please don't do this sort of thing at work." He complained as he blushed harder.
"Yes, yes." Takano released him. Onodera finished packing his bag and Takano gently took his hand, lacing their fingers. They headed towards the elevator, going in before the doors closed.
They left the building hand in hand and headed for the nearest restaurant, a sushi bar.

"We can buy a cake to share after." Takano suggested.
"Sure." Onodera smiled gently as they ate.
A little while later they had finished and Takano paid the bill.
Leaving the restaurant Takano took Onodera's hand, lacing their fingers. When they got back to the car they got in and Onodera yawned slightly.
"Tired?" Takano asked and Onodera nodded, gently closing his eyes.
"Take a rest. It'll be a while before we get to the patisserie." Takano kissed his head and started the car.
Onodera fell asleep and Takano looked over with a smile, covering him with his coat. When he reached the patisserie he parked right in front of the shop and left the car, locking it.
Takano quickly ran into the patisserie and was out in a flash with a strawberry cake. He got back in the car and that's when Onodera woke up.
"Takano...?" He opened his eyes.
"We're heading home now. We'll be home soon." Takano kissed his head and Onodera was out like a light. They arrived home not long after and Takano carried Otoya to his room, not wanting to wake him.
He set Otoya down on the bed and put the cake in the fridge. He stripped himself and Onodera of their shirts, climbing into bed.
Takano slung an arm over Onodera's waist and his cheek buried into his shoulder.
The next morning came and Takano's alarm clock sounded. Annoyed, he slammed the alarm clock.
"Princess wake up..." He murmured, sitting up.
Onodera groaned and his eyes opened gently. He lifted his head, burying his face into Takano's thigh.
"I'm up..." Onodera groaned.
"Come on, we've got work today. You can cling to my thigh later." Takano joked. Onodera sat up and rested his head on Takano's shoulder.
"What's with all the affection in the morning?" Takano laughed.
"I feel like it..." Onodera sighed with a pout.
"I'm gonna get dressed." Onodera climbed out of bed and had taken 2 steps before Takano threw his arms around his waist tenderly.
"Takano-san...?" Onodera turned around, a blush coating his cheeks. Takano said nothing, he just clung to Onodera's waist. Onodera turned around and smiled, returning the soft embrace.
