For You

His arms truly are your sanctuary, just as your warmth is his haven.

You always mentioned that being in Ushijima's arms was the highlight of your day, but he never understood your happiness until he felt your embrace. The warmth your smaller body radiated blessed him with sweet euphoria that could practically lull him to sleep; your scent was light and pleasant enough to remind him of freshly baked cookies; there was also the softness and bounciness of your skin that tempted him every time a bit of flesh was exposed to his eyes whenever you shifted in your oversized shirts. Ushijima slowly became aware of his newfound fondness for your touch, going as far as to open his arms wide whenever you decided it was time to crawl into bed together.

"Waka-kun, I can't go to the bathroom like this!" Tonight was a typical night: you tugged on his sleeve for his attention before climbing atop him to rest your head against his chest -- Ushijima felt as if you meshed with his body well as he wrapped his arms around your waist and kept your form tethered to him. Unfortunately, there were moments that required him to pull away from your delicious heat, and Ushijima felt particularly tempted to follow you into the bathroom while holding your hand.

"No, you can't come with me!" It was as if you read the brunette's mind, maybe you really were a telepath.

"Ah, that's too bad." This was possibly the fourth time Ushijima felt disappointed due to him being unable to have his way with you. The other moments of discontent were extremely childish -- you knew quite well that the brunette was quite immature whenever he wanted your full attention.

"Waka-kun, I am not letting you hold my hand while I go to the bathroom. We aren't kids, you know that right?" You took a moment to adjust yourself from the corner of the bed you shared with your goofy boyfriend, your eyes now focused on him as he drilled his gaze into your orbs.

"I want to be with you." Now you laugh at this madness; maybe all the training Ushijima's new college coach gave him was making him regress in age.

"I'll come back in five seconds, you can count!" You run off as Ushijima's mouth moves to form the words in his mouth that force you to keep your five-second promise -- even adults could be stupid kids.

"Ok, ok! I'm back!" Ushijima's arms open as he feels his figure splay about on the bed as you fly into his embrace -- you belonged here and nowhere else.

"At least let me go pee in peace next time." Ushijima's arms find their place around your waist as he feels your head move around to rest on his chest.

"Maybe." For now, he felt like teasing you. Anything really to elongate this lovely moment with you.
