Fudanshi-Kun and Ikemen-Kun

Chapter 9

Once dinner was set and everyone took a seat, Yuuta looked at the food. It was an elegant Japanese style meal. Yuuta sat in between Eri and Ryouta and across the table Azazel and Katsumi sat together.

"So, how did you get hooked into reading BL?" Eri asked, looking at Yuuta.

"Oh, uh I accidentally read one, because I got bored of what I was normally reading and grabbed a random manga," He replied, "What about you?"

Eri giggled, "Well I just grew up with two men in a relationship and I got curious about the mangas people write about two men."

The two laughed. Ryouta just glared at Eri. The two parents laughed lightly and looked at each other.

"I smell a sibling rivalry," Azazel smiled.

"What?" Eri looked at Azazel then at Ryouta.

She smirked and glared back at him. The two were just staring each other down. Yuuta started to feel awkward, so he got up.

"Um, where is the bathroom," Yuuta asked as he looked at the table.

"Down the hallway the second door to the left," Azazel replied sweetly.

Yuuta ran to the bathroom and lock the door. He stood in front of the mirror, staring at his reflection. He felt awkward and his hair kind of messy. The bangs were barely covering his eyes. He fixed them and then opened the door. He felt really odd, not used to any of this. Meeting a friend's family, and now Ryouta and Eri are silently fighting for some reason. He felt really uncomfortable. He walked forward and bumped into Ryouta.

"Oh, s-sorry!" Yuuta bowed his head slightly to apologize.

"What's this now you're apologizing so frantically?" He joked, "Last time you just scolded when we ran into each other."

Yuuta looked down and blushed slightly. Ryouta just sighed and patted his head.

"Come on, desserts being made right now," He grabbed Yuuta's hand and dragged him to the table.

Yuuta stumbled slightly as they walked to the table. He sat down in his original spot. Azazel was in the kitchen making dessert, probably pudding or flan. Ryouta sat next to Yuuta. Yuuta avoided any eye contact with him and stayed silent.

"So what's you reply?" Ryouta blurted out of the blue.

"What?" Yuuta looked at him very confused.

"What is you're reply to my confession," He explained with a serious tone.

"O-oh," Yuuta blushed, "Can I have some time to think about it? I'm not used to this kind of stuff."

Ryouta nodded and stayed silent. The two didn't talk until after they ate dessert.

"So uh, Yuuta, do you want to stay over tonight?" Katsumi asked.

"Uh, if it's not a bother to you," He replied quietly.

"Well I guess you can sleep with Ryouta," Azazel smiled.

"B-but I-" Yuuta freaked out.

"It's okay, I can set out a futon on the floor and sleep on that," Ryouta interrupted him, "I'll let you sleep on the bed."

"No! I'll sleep on the floor!" Yuuta argued.

"That wouldn't make me a good host," Ryouta said in a gentle tone.

"But...." Yuuta looked down.

"I'm sure both of you can fit on the bed," Eri joked.

Yuuta blushed, his face to the tip of his ears. They laughed.

"I don't have any ulterior motives, don't worry," Ryouta smiled.

"O-okay, that can w-work," Yuuta covered his face.

Katsumi and Azazel laughed softly.

"You can take a bath first, I'll get you some clothes you can borrow from me," Ryouta got up.

"Okay," Yuuta nodded as he got up.
