『バウンド』 Bound

Welcome Home

"EVERYONE! EVERYONE GET UP!"

Tatsumi rubbed his ear at Akame's shouting. He figured she would be happy to see them, but he did not imagine her to be the type to be this thrilled. He turned his head and sweated when he saw Lubbock hugging every furniture he could. Both of them were acting like lunatics, and he could not ask for any more.

"Oh man I missed this portrait..." He heard Lubbock said as several footsteps entered the open room. Najenda, Leone, and Mine had ran out with their weapons.

"Akame! What's wrong!? Why-!" In the next moment, large breasts suffocated Tatsumi and strong arms tightened around his torso.

"We were so worried!" Leone cried out and Tatsumi found this hard to believe since she seemed very keen to kill him with her chest. "I figured you caught up with them-! I looked for Lubbock-! All Najenda found were his goggles-!"

"Leone!" His muffled voice cut her off and he was finally able to breathe. He glanced to the side and was surprised to see Najenda hugging Lubbock very tight. "W-We're fine. There was just a lot going on."

"We?" He pointed his finger in Lubbock's direction and in the next second, Lubbock was being suffocated by the two women.

Tatsumi smiled widely and chuckled a little. When he looked up, he blinked when he saw Mine staring at him with a blank expression.

"A-ah hi again?" He said with a small wave, wondering if the fiesty girl was planning to beat him up. Instead, she ran up and embraced him tightly.

"Don't ever disappear on us like that, you stupid shithead!" She swore and Tatsumi sweated, nonetheless touched by her concern.

"I don't plan to. We're here for good." He reassured while patting the top of her pink head. He then felt Akame hug him from behind and used his other hand to pat her head as well with a sweat.

"We're home."

...

In what seemed like forever, Tatsumi and Lubbock were finally released from the remaining members of Night Raid. Tatsumi had figured Lubbock would enjoy the breasts squeezing against him, but instead the older male was more content with being beside him in his bedroom.

"I'm happy." Lubbock muttered while rolling on his back on Tatsumi's bed. "Not like plain happy. But happy-happy. It's kinda hard to explain. I feel like jumping off a cliff." Lubbock said and Tatsumi laugh, only finding this cute.

"I understand what you mean. It's like the same feeling when we kiss." He compared. He paid no mind to Lubbock's embarrassed sound as he went through his drawer. It seemed like his whole room went untouched since he had left. Lubbock had came from his own room ten minutes ago and made himself comfortable on Tatsumi's bed.

"It might be too much to ask. But I want things to stay like this. How it should be." Lubbock said. Indeed it was a hard request because they have the lives of targeted assassins.

"Me too. And for you, I'll definitely see to it that things will stay the same." Tatsumi promised however. The rosy smile he knew and loved appeared on Lubbock's face and it further motivated him to keep the male happy.

Lubbock sat up and stood from the bed. At the same time, Tatsumi stepped in front of him and as though their minds became alike, their hands clasped together. It is quiet, intimate moments like these that made Tatsumi look forward to how their relationship could progress.

"You seriously make me happy." Tatsumi said with half-lidded eyes. "You always did. It's really amazing."

"And it's nice to know that after going through so much, you were there for me all the time. I'm grateful for that, just so you know." Lubbock said. "I know things haven't ended here, but I really like how this turned out."
