Under the Same Sky.

ー Part 7.

Hokuto slowly opened his eyes and realized that they are still in the onsen. He looked at Itsuki and noticed his puffy eyes. His head is still painful but it is tolerable. He gently cupped his cheeks and made Itsuki look at him.

"What happened to me? Did you cry?" He mumbled but Itsuki shook his head. He gently rested his forehead on his and closed his eyes.

"I don't want to lose you, Hokuto." Itsuki whispered and he noticed the shakiness of his voice. Something happened but Itsuki doesn't want to tell him.

"What happened, Icchan? Tell me." He asked once more but Itsuki shook his head again.

"You will not believe me if I tell you." He can feel that Itsuki is hiding something from him. He can't remember what happened to him before he lose his consciousness because of the headache.

"I want to know, Icchan. Please?" He stared at his eyes before Itsuki finally nodded.

"Let's go back inside first." Itsuki said and they quickly went back inside and dried themselves before wearing their yukata again.

It is almost midnight when they arrived at the quiet place where he talked with Kazuma earlier. For sure, people are already asleep. Most of their friends are already drunk and they are sure that the younger ones helped the older ones to go to their rooms.

They sat down on the wooden bench as they watch the snow fall from the night sky. It is getting colder, so he sat closer to Itsuki to keep themselves warm.

"Will you believe me when if I tell you that you are my husband in our last lifetime?" Itsuki suddenly said and he raised his brows when he heard this.

"What do you mean? How can that happen?" He asked and then, Itsuki pulled out a very old paper from his yukata. The paper is so brittle that it can be ripped anytime if you are not being careful.

"We got married last 1619. You were nineteen back then. I am so happy that you chose to marry me. It was the happiest day for me." Itsuki said as he showed the drawing on the paper.

It is a portrait of them. Itsuki can't even forget that moment. Right after their wedding, he asked one of their servants to draw them. They even wrote something behind the portrait.

"A love to last forever." Itsuki mumbled, flipping the paper carefully to show him their names written on it.

"It is true. It even had our names." He smiled widely and then, he felt his tears falling down from his eyes.

"It is all true. How did you find me?" He looked at Itsuki while crying silently. Now, he can feel how much Itsuki love him.

"I looked for you since we were middle school. It took me years to find you. When I was still looking for you, I always wish to the stars to help me. I love you so much, Hokuto. Even if we are already in modern age, I still love you so much." His tears kept on falling and he nodded his head many times. Now, he knows why Itsuki asked him if he remember him the first day they met.

"I'm sorry if I can't still remember you." He cried but Itsuki wiped his tears and gently kissed his lips. He slowly closed his eyes and finally kissed him back, knowing that this will be another chapter of their lives.

Winter break is now over and Itsuki is helping his brother to move their things to their new apartment. In their new apartment, both of them have their own rooms and each room is spacious enough for them to put all of their things.

"Aniki, isn't this apartment too expensive?" He asked while placing down the boxes on the floor.

"The rent is reasonable. Look. We have our own bedrooms. We even have our own bathroom inside the bedroom. And then, there is a veranda. There is also a kitchen and another bathroom for the guests. The living room is spacious. We also have a laundry room." Takanori said while pointing every part of the apartment.

"But you will not be always here." He said and Takanori smiled widely, patting his shoulder gently.

"Don't you like it? You will have enough time and privacy with your boyfriend." He glared at his brother as he already know what is he thinking.

"Our relationship is still a secret." He said and he started to unpack his things.

"But it doesn't mean you can't do it." Takanori's smile got wider and he threw a towel to his face but this didn't stop his brother from teasing him.

"Aniki, we are still young to do it." He said while placing his clothes inside the closet.

"Hai, hai." Takanori smiled at him and left to go to his own room and unpack his things.

Few days had passed and he suddenly received a message from his brother that he will not be able to go home for a week because of his work. It is still winter, so he decided to invite Hokuto to their new apartment.

"Ojamashimasu." Hokuto smiled widely and he looked around, fascinated with the things around him.

"Come in. Help yourself. Aniki is not around this time. He has work." He said and he went to the kitchen to prepare warm lemon tea for them.

"Takanori-nii will not be home today?" Hokuto asked while taking off his shoes. He got one of the indoor slippers and wore it before walking to the living room.

"For one week and also, we don't have classes for a week, desho?" He asked and placed down the cups of warm lemon tea on the coffee table.

"Un. Should we go out for a vacation?" Hokuto asked and he got one of the cups.

"I want to spend more time with you." He said and Hokuto immediately sat down besides him on the couch and snuggled on him.

"Aren't we doing it now?" Hokuto asked with a smile and he looked down to see if he is wearing the necklace he gave to him a few weeks ago.

"Not just that. I want more of you, Hokuto." He mumbled and he saw Hokuto staring at him seriously.

"It will not hurt much, desho?" Hokuto asked and he stared back at him.

"We will not know if we will not do it." He mumbled and then, he got the cup from him, placing it down back to the coffee table. He carried Hokuto in his arms and they went inside his room. He made sure that he locked the doors first before they started making love.

A few moments later and they found themselves naked in the bed. He filled Hokuto's chest and shoulders with bite marks, telling him that he is already his territory.

"Itsuki." Hokuto moaned softly while gently caressing his toned body. Sooner, he felt his lips against his and they started to make out as if they are hungry with each other.

"Itsuki, I want you now." With Hokuto's soft but husky voice made him want him more. He took a pack of condom from his bedside drawer and opened it. He put it around his length and he started to enter Hokuto.

He felt his nails digging his skin when he is slowly entering him. When he is fully inside him already, he started to move his hips in a slow pace. He is still finding his spot but after some thrusts, Hokuto started to moan softly with his eyes closed.

"It feels so good." Hokuto moaned while biting his finger. He is breathing heavily, feeling his hole getting stretched with every thrust.

Hokuto's body started to tremble because of pleasure and he slowly wrapped his legs around his hips. He kept on moaning Itsuki's name but it is getting louder since the pace is getting faster. He gripped on the bedsheets tightly and he watched Itsuki pleasure their bodies.

"Itsuki." He moaned loudly and then, he wrapped his arms around his body. Hearing Itsuki's groans is making him harder. He reached for his own length and started to stroke it fast.

Later, he is the first one to reach the climax and Itsuki followed. He moaned loudly as his fluids is covering his hand and some of it spurted on his abdomen and on Itsuki's stomach.

"I love you, Itsuki." He mumbled while still feeling dizzy because of pleasure. He felt a kiss on his forehead and this made him smile before he lose his consciousness because of tiredness.
