I Like It

"Yuzuru, hmm?"

He grinned widely, his brown hair flopping into his eyes as he nodded eagerly with those gorgeous green eyes of his sparkling.

"Yes, if we write it with the right characters it'll have the ones for arrow and bowstring."

I suppose I should have seen it coming, considering his weapon choice and the talent he had in archery.

He was so graceful when holding his bow, the look of determination and concentration in his eyes when he was targeting gave him a handsome harder look that contradicted his otherwise cute, boyish charm.

My silence must have worried him as his smile fades a little and the sparkle darkens, his shoulder slumping a little as his eyes shift to look at the ground to his side.

His fingers fiddle with the bottom of his uniform jacket.

I loved him in that black uniform, he always looked so dapper in it.

Like a true man with purpose.

"Yuzuru," I test the name out with a smile.

There was no denying that it had a certain ring to it, no wonder he had seemed so excited when he'd bounced over claiming to have had a wonderful idea.

As I spoke I saw his eyes flicker to me once again, his smile widening once again as he nodded in affirmation.

Yoichi stepped closer and crouched down in front of me, his hands resting on my swollen stomach as he stared at it, like somehow he'd be able to see the baby growing inside if he tried hard enough.

I smile and begin to play with his hair, resting my other hand over one of his.

"Yuzuru Saotome," I hum softly, tilting my head back and closing my eyes. "I like it."
