Returns
[ There is something strange about remaining after his class. For the last months, he's always headed straight home after class and he'd almost feel lazy remaining sitting on a bench know if he didn't know what and who he's waiting for.
He's known Light would finally come back for weeks now, but it's hard to believe him just walking down the path towards him again. The last time that has happened seems so long ago....
They're finally back on the right path completely. Teru has no reason to be nervous about this, but maybe 'nervous' is not the right word for it so much as 'excited'.
Against habit, he does not keep his head bowed as he sits and instead actively looks out for his boyfriend. ]

While waiting for Teru to return, he's lulled into a half awakened state of consciousness, neither asleep nor alert. He's all quiet breathing and fond thoughts as he mentally drifts from place to place. From having to use purple toilet paper for the foreseeable future to more sombre questions like whether or not an inability to internalize Teru's certainty is really a reflection of his own lack of faith.
Something that may not be entirely fair.
Teru returns before he can dwell on this for too much longer, and though he smiles a vague half smile as his boyfriend approaches, it's replaced with a shiver the instant their bodies are pressed together.]
Ah... .
[But in a contradictory fashion, Light moves his arm over Teru and traces his spine up and down. Pressing his forehead against Teru's neck, he murmurs softly.]
I said you were welcome to rub my shoulders, not to use me as your personal heater.
no subject
[ And once he gets to cleaning up stickiness it is certainly hard to stop. He
hates it so, he wants to be clean completely to lay with his God.
Light's warmth is more than pleasant against him and Teru nestles himself in deeper, almost as if trying to melt into his boyfriend. ]
Let me have one more minute and I'll be ready....
[ Rubbing Light's shoulders certainly doesn't sound bad either, but the heat is so pleasant and soft and smooth... Intoxicating, though mostly in the way of a sleep tonic by now.
He feels a bit guilty about this selfishness, but it doesn't make him nervous anymore. He knows Light will forgive his moment of weakness, maybe even be endeared. ]
no subject
[Not that Light seems displeased about it. His hand settles on the small of Teru's back where he idly traces out circles with his thumb. Holding each other in bed naked doesn't seem so strange now, but in the past it'd only been the result of mistakenly falling asleep next to each other soon after being sexually intimate. This being a voluntary and conscious choice now with their bodies pressed close enough that Light can feel their chests rising and falling against each other as they breathe in unison seems like a bigger step than it actually ever was. Like so many things between them, gradual incremental changes make things hard to pinpoint as turning points... with a few glaring exceptions.
He draws back to look at his boyfriend's face and, with his free hand, brushes his lips.]
You can't fool me so easily. I can see right through you.
no subject
... you only stall when the thing you are asked to do is unpleasant though. Touching you never matches that criteria.
[ Despite his words, he is very reluctant to draw apart further. He could just fal asleep on the spot right here, but that won't do for his God.... ]
You should turn over to give me access though.
no subject
[Light raises an eyebrow, but from his tone it's quite clear that there's no genuine disbelief. He rolls carefully onto his stomach and over onto his side. Glancing over his shoulder, he offers a half smile.]
Is that good enough access for you?
no subject
[ Teru smiles back softly himself and moves to sit up a little more so he can freely use both his hands on this massage. In the process of that movement, he drops a gentle kiss on Light's neck. Simple gestures of affection that are impossible to resist when they're already in bed together.
Then he places his hands on Light's shoulders, gently rubbing over the shoulder blade area in circular movements. ]
no subject
You're thanking me for moving so you can do this for me after I practically nudged you into it?
[Quietly amused, he closes his eyes and reaches over his shoulder to brush Teru's hand.]
Even for you that's a little strange, isn't it?
no subject
[ Teru repeats it gently, feeling inside that the gentle chastising for his overt affections is not justified in the slightest. His hands keep working Light's shoulders as he speaks. ]
I made a request and you complied. Thanks aren't that strange then.
no subject
[Smiling into his pillow, Light slowly moves until his back is pressed against Teru's chest. Carefully he leads Teru's hand up over his shoulder and drapes his boyfriend's arm over his body.]
You're tired, aren't you?
[Murmuring softly, he places his hand over Teru's and interlaces their fingers.]
I wasn't serious about the request to begin with, you know. Staying like this and talking until we fall asleep seems perfect right now.
no subject
Mhm... I'm not sure how long conversation will last me anymore, admittedly. Despite the change of position, you really wore me out.
[ Which is a great thing, there's nothing better than falling asleep with heavy limbs feeling like he's done a lot that day... in... whatever sense. ]
no subject
[Stated like that, it sounds vulgar enough that Light briefly tenses up with embarrassment. There's nothing to be ashamed about, not really. Part of loving each other means showing it actively, letting it be known how much he enjoys being with Teru in every way and Teru showing him the same. But still ...
He falls silent, feeling at an awkward loss for words. There are a host of innuendos that would be appropriate here, any one of which would be fine as a joke, but he wants to say something sincere. Or at least something that isn't outright facetious.
For the moment, that doesn't come. Breathing out, he tips his head back slightly.]
Are you talking dirty to me? [He squeezes Teru's hand.] Go to sleep.
no subject
[ The perplexed inquiry comes in a quiet voice even before Light can conclude with his order of immediate rest.
Yet, in hindsight, Teru has to admit Light has a point. It's unsettling. He squeezes Light's hand back, unwilling to address the possibility of dirty words. Dirty is the antithesis to his whole personality after all. ]
... goodnight, Light. I love you.
no subject
I might be able to get used to it.
[That's a strange thought though and if Teru could see his face clearly, there'd be a bit of a half smile on his lips at the absurdity. After another moment, Light decides to shift slightly and turns on his side to face Teru. Wrapping an arm over his boyfriend's hip. he echoes the sentiment.]
I love you, too.
