Kairi walks up the rather large staircase, all the way to his bedroom.
He sets down his backpack and was about to turn around until-
Kairi felt something large wrap around him.
He squealed when that happened.
It scared him.
But.
He was okay.
It was just Mattia fooling around.
Kairi turned the best he could to see a smiley Mattia, holding back a laugh.
Kairi- "Don't scare me like that!" He yelled but not so loud as he wanted to.
Mattia- "But it's fun." He whined.
Kairi couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing Mattia act like a baby even though he usually has this tough and overprotective aura was hilarious.
Mattia- "Stop laughing at me shorty!" He says this in a playful way.
And with that he goes ontop of Kairi causing them both to end up on the ground.
Mattia tickled Kairi endlessly.
And ironically- Kairi was very ticklish.
Kairi- "S-stopp!!... Mattia- Mattia!.. I can't breathe!" He giggles this out in slight pain.
Mattia- "I'm good."
Kairi- "Bud-.. s-stop i-..it..!" He laughed this out more.
Mattia didn't stop.
The door suddenly swings open.
It was Mattia's Dad.
Or well, Giacomo.
Their "Dad".
Giacomo- "What the fuck are you doing?" He sounded angry when he said this.
Why?
Mattia's dad was sort of homophobic.
No lying about it.
Mattia immediately backs up from Kairi.
Mattia- "Nothing..!" He shouted.
He was scared his dad would think something wrong.
Giacomo- "It better be nothing. I didn't raise a fairy." He said this sternly.
Then exits the room.
Kairi was frozen.
Woah.
He couldn't have known what to do.
Mattia felt his heart sink.
His eyes were watery now.
Why was his father this way?..
Why?
Mattia then fell to his knees.
He was sad.
He was disappointed in himself.
He didn't want to like men.
Yet he did.
He liked men.
He liked Kairi.
More then a brother.
More then a friend.
He covered his face with his hands.
Mattia didn't want Kairi to see him cry.
Kairi looks over at Mattia in this state.
He felt bad.
Kairi felt almost like he was to blame.
Odd.
The small boy scoots towards Mattia.
He wrapped his small arms around the younger boy the best he could.
Mattia tried to move away but just accepted it.
Mattia- "I'm sorry." He mumbles this out in between his sobbing.
Kairi- "Don't be. It's okay watashi no ai." He said this softly.
(watashi no ai= my love)
Why "watashi no ai" you ask?
Well, Kairi's mom would call him that.
That was one of the words he could remember so clearly.
So vivid.
Each time she said that he could see it.
He could see the word.
See the meaning.
Knowing she loved him.
He loved Mattia.
So he said that.
Mattia's heart fluttered at the sudden change of languages.
Kairi was truly adorable to him.
Even if no one else could see it.
Mattia continued letting hot tears fall from his eye lids, they would drop slowly.
He could feel some on his hands.
Mattia removed his hands from his face and pulled Kairi in closer.
Putting his head in between Kairi's neck.
He smelt so sweet.
So innocent.
So caring.
Mattia's grip tightened.
Kairi just let it be.
Mattia was hurting in that moment.
So Kairi needed to be here for him.
He started rubbing small circles on his back.
Kairi couldn't stop thinking about Mattia's dad.
Did he really hate homosexuals?
Kairi didn't know.
After a while Mattia let Kairi out of his grasp, the two boys both stood up.
Kairi suddenly spoke up.
Kairi- "Are you okay?.." He questioned.
The younger boy nods his head.
A few moments of silence went by until Mattia spoke again.
Mattia- "You didn't see me cry okay?.." He said with a small smile.
Kairi- "I definitely didn't see you cry just now." He giggled.
Mattia hit Kairi in the shoulder.
Not enough to hurt him, but in a playful way.
Mattia- "Lets get going."
Kairi nodded and the two made their way to the car.
