tsukishima x yamaguchi | clouded kisses ☁️☆

7

soft snores barely heard over the volume of the tv catch tsukishimas attention. looking down to the younger boy, now asleep on his shoulder. the brunettes hand still ever so slightly intertwined with his own. he admires the slow rhythm of his sleepy breaths, his squished face against his body, his freckles like stars in the night sky. he traces them with his vision, finding new constellation patterns in his soft skin with each wandering motion of his eyes.

kei smiled to himself 'i must be the luckiest guy around to have someone as beautiful as you'

he checks his phone for the time, noticing its nearly midnight. he shuts off the tv and quietly tries to remove himself from tadashi. as he starts to slowly stand, the smaller boy latches onto his arm tighter, holding him in place. kei scoffs at his actions, thinking it was cute how touchy he was being with him, even when he's sleeping. he goes to stand again, gently peeling tadashi off of him. after getting to his feet he looks down at the sleeping pile of dead weight, fast asleep on his couch.

"ok, how do i go about this?" he whispers to himself, even though he knows tadashi won't wake if he speaks normally. he goes to scoop him up, with the blanket that was covering him; as a groom would carry their bride. tsukishima walks him gently towards his room, 'damn, he's a lot heavier when he's all slumped over like this'.

as tsukishima is trying his best to not drop his poor sleeping boyfriend, tadashi stirs awake in his arms. his eyes flutter up to meet kei's, immediately confused as to why he was being carried like a child.

he groans and rubs his eyes, "tsukki... what're you doing?" his voice raspy with exhaustion.

"you fell asleep, i'm taking you to bed yama" he replied nonchalantly.

too tired to retaliate, yamaguchi closes his eyes again without a response. tsukishima kicks open the door with his foot and lays the boy down onto the bed, taking off his glasses and laying down next to him. they both get under the covers, facing away from each other.

kei stays awake and listens as yamaguchi snores himself back to blissful sleep. he turns his body to face tadashi's back, his figure rising and falling with each breath he takes. tsukishima finds him inching closer by the second, as if tadashi was pulling him in like a magnet. he gets just close enough to almost press his chest against brunettes back. the blonde hesitantly slips his hands around the smallers waist, hugging him and pulling him closer to his own chest, placing his chin atop the others head. he hums in satisfaction, 'this is all i want to do for the rest our lives. just like this. forever.' the warmth from the boy he adored so dearly, puts him to sleep in a matter of seconds, both of them out like a light. peaceful, heavenly sleep.

vivid morning light casts shadows through the window of tsukishima's room. the blazing rays of the sun forced the eyes of both boys awake. yamaguchi wakes up and is immediately flustered seeing tsukishimas arms wrapped around his waist, not remembering being held before he went to sleep. he sits up and the half awake blonde next to him groans fatigued; rubbing his eyes and grabbing his glasses to slide them up the bridge of his nose.

"good morning tsukki" yamaguchi says with the cheeriest tone he can manage after just waking up.

"good morning yama" he says with a smile and sleepy half lidded eyes. his raspy, tired voice sent chills up the smaller boys' spine, making him visibly shiver.

they sit and adjust to the sunlight, cuddling with each other— nearly falling asleep again— until it was interrupted by a knock at the door, and they quickly scrambled out of each others arms. the door opened swiftly after but the boys shifted apart just in time.
