[By now Natsume knows that Kusakabe is just sort of...like this. He can say the smoothest, most suave things one moment, and then the next his emotions get the best of him and he's tearing up. Of course, that doesn't mean Natsume isn't gently distressed by it -- he is, making a soft, concerned sound and gingerly shifting around so he can reach up and wipe the tears away.]
I know. Me too. [He's very soft and fuzzy right now, so he leans up, kisses Kusakabe's nose, his cheeks, his mouth.] But I'm not going anywhere between now and then, okay? I'm not leaving.
[Kusakabe feels a great deal, very deeply, when it comes to the people that he cares about. Natsume has very much become one of those people, so of course he gets to see those wild ups and downs that come with Kusakabe barely restraining his emotions.
His arms remain around Natsume's middle and he leans into the kisses, calming considerably even with the swell of warmth that comes with the assurance that Natsume will stay with him, one way or another.
He does finally move so that they can clean up though, considering that they're cooling down and he's starting to feel sticky. They could curl up and nap together before they got eventually called down for supper, unless Natsume decided he had other things to do.]
Eventually, I'm going to find somewhere to live closer to school. Maybe with access to the train so I can come see you without having to take the bike all that way.
[Natsume is very pleased that the kisses help, and he'll happily keep them up, carding his still-shaky fingers through Kusakabe's hair as well, pushing it away from his face. He doesn't have anything else he'd rather do, besides...clean up, right.
Still, as he does, he smiles a little at the idea of Kusakabe being closer.] I'd like that. It wouldn't be too expensive? [There's the practicality, back for vengeance.]
[He scoots to the edge of the bed and eases out from under Natsume so that the two of them can clean up. He pulls his clothes straight after he wipes down everywhere he can still feel sticky, then leans to press his nose against the side of Natsume's head and pull him close again.]
I'll be ok. I'm going to have to get a job between now and college anyway. Maybe we can go on a real date for a change.
[The clean up is always annoying, taking time that could be spent snuggling. Natsume is never clingier than he is in these sorts of moments, tugging Kusakabe back down onto the bed and sprawling over him.]
That'd be nice. I've never been on one. [Toying with a button now.] It'd be nice to see you more often, too.
[He'd only been able to wipe up the most obvious mess before Natsume, in his clingy cuddling habit whenever they got intimate, dragged him back down. Of course Kusakabe could never resist him, and he wrapped his arms around the other boy to bring him close.]
I can't wait to be able to see you any time. We should go for coffee somewhere between now and then. Like regular dates.
