  Kokichi had been feeling strange recently. It was a feeling that he couldn't put a name to nor could he understand the slight envy and longing in his chest. What was this feeling? The Ultimate Supreme Leader was currently teasing Shuichi, hoping to get his mind off the queerness.

  "Are you okay? You're not as... energetic as usual." Shuichi pointed out suddenly, as Kokichi tilted his head to the side.

  "Really? You must be imagining things~" Kokichi chirped innocently.

  Shuichi gave him a questioning look though he said nothing. The pair continued to walk around the school, talking about this and that without any real motive behind them. Kokichi even gave a few true answers. Kokichi clung to Shuichi's arm, resting his head on the taller's shoulder. The queer feeling went away. Shuichi must've seen the confusion on his face.

  "You okay?"

  "You've been asking me that a lot." Kokichi giggled, "Are you falling for me~?"

  Shuichi chuckled, "Says the one who's hugging me."

  Kokichi released the detective with a sly smile, "I have no idea what you're talking about~"

  The queer feeling came back a few minutes later and Kokichi left the navy haired detective to retreat into his room. He tried to put a name to the emotion. Was it being... touch-deprived? He thought before quickly shutting it down. No, it couldn't be.

~~~~~~~~

  As the days went on the feeling got worse and worse until it was all Kokichi could do to keep from exploding. He knew that it was being deprived of touch for so long. The purple-haired male bumped into Shuichi in the corridor and something inside him seemed to snap. The shorter hugged the taller, feeling the detective flinch slightly.

  "K-Kokichi?"

  "Just for a moment... please?" It was the first time the taller had ever heard the leader asked for something. So despite his very red face, the detective allowed the purple-haired leader to hug him. It ended up lasting for more than a moment though, more like ten minutes until Kokichi finally said something.

  "S-sorry, Shuichi." The purple-haired male murmured with a blush on his face as he pulled away.

  "Kokichi, are you really okay?" Shuichi asked nervously, trying to hide the blush on his face from the shorter.

  "It sounds weird out loud..." He murmured, brightening instantly, "B-but maybe that's a lie!"

  Shuichi sighed, grabbed Kokichi's wrist and dragged him to his dorm room. With a protesting supreme leader in tow, Shuichi pulled the other into his dorm and closed the door.

  "Stop lying, Kokichi. What's wrong?" Shuichi demanded, his voice slightly louder than he intended it to be.

  The leader looked away, "Why do you wanna know~" He tried to make his voice sound defiant but failed.

  Shuichi closed the gap between them and pulled the shorter into a warm embrace. Kokichi almost instantly melted into the physical contact, a soft sigh escaping his lips. The tense feeling that had been trapped inside the shorter finally becoming less prominent.

  "You're touch deprived, aren't you, Kokichi?" Shuichi murmured, sitting on the bed and pulled the liar after him. Kokichi sat in the taller's lap, wrapping his legs around his back while resting his head on his shoulder.
