It was officially Saturday, meaning it was my mother and father’s day off. They always took one day out of the week to spend time with me, which was sweet. I could never ask for better parents. They never fought, or at least never did it in front of me, and they made sure to leave work aside when it was the three of us.

Today, however, we had a plus one. Akira, being the guy that he is, thanked my mother for breakfast. My parents, as I said before, were fantastic. But when it came to dropping hints, they were oblivious.

I’ve been hinting to my mother and father that I was looking forward to our time together today, just us. But apparently, when you have a friend over, all other plans go out the window. All focus goes to the guest, and time should be spent with them.

It was insulting to want Akira out of the house, but I couldn’t handle seeing him now. After everything that happened last night, I’m not sure if that’s a possibility. I have to find a way to punish myself without Akira finding out, and that’s hard to do when he’s beside me.

“Your father and I will be leaving the house for today. We’ve decided that we should have a day just the two of us. We won’t be home until late, so make sure you both get to bed at a decent time.”

“Speaking of which, I think it’s about time we head out.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSAXQXcMh8
With my father’s words, they stood up and left. They hugged me goodbye, waved to Akira, and told us they would lock the door behind them. I heard the dreadful sound of the door shutting, the car starting, and the engine's noise slowly drifting away.

“Maxie, baby~.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqKYNfrkfa
My face flushed, I sat up straighter and refused to look at him. His voice was so deep and warm that I felt I could get lost forever. I heard him chuckle at my reaction and felt my chair move closer to Akira’s.

Akira’s arm wrapped around my waist while his other hand rested on my thigh, “So, we have the house all to ourselves. What’s the first thing you wanna do?”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwAf0H50kK
I could hear my heart beating out of my chest. The noise was deafening to the point where I could barely comprehend Akria’s question. His grip on my thigh tightened, and his hand began to draw up and underneath my shirt before slowly drifting its way back down. The grip lessened as well.

“Why don’t we start with a movie? You pick the genre, I pick the movie, OK?”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWJaGbiVIF
“That… OK, I could do that.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pzeyMIgOg
Akira smiled, and God, what a fantastic smile it was. Has he ever smiled in front of me before now? Maybe I just never noticed it like this before. I’m so used to seeing him frown or having a neutral face that seeing him like this was a nice change.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE82rhOLV7M
“Great! Now, what genre would you like to watch?”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EXBfauRY0
“It’s up to y-.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0u2MPwOQE
“No, it’s not up to me,” Akira lifted my head up with his index finger, “I’m teaching you how to be more selfish, now, choose a genre, and I’ll choose the movie.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJCmsGF6cx
I said it by habit, why can’t he pick the movie without my assistance? But I’m sure he’s not going to let that slide. I have to find a way to make Akira hate me, so picking a genre that he hates is the best option. He seems like a horror fanatic to me, and the opposite of that is like… romance? Maybe a rom-com is best.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXJc49G3cZ
No, wait, he’ll just get ideas that I would rather he not follow through with. It could just be a comedy, then I’ll be able to see his smile again. I’ve never heard him laugh before, it would be nice to hear it.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIXwcJ72I7
Shit! Why am I so selfish to think like that? I shouldn’t be planning like this. I’ll be forcing him to laugh and smile when he doesn’t do that regularly! I’m going to make him be something that he isn’t.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1J51qulT8
“Jesus, Max, you’re just picking a genre. There aren’t even that many!”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUD6hwaA8bi
“I’m sorry…”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2aOOZswwu
I pull my head away, only to be cupped by Akira’s hand. He pulled me into a deep kiss. This one wasn’t hungry, just deep and passionate. Our lips separated so we could breathe, but Akira pulled me back in quickly. We repeated the action, which means… holy shit, we're making out!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2i730Ur3T
Did we have to watch a movie? Couldn’t we just make out on the couch or whatever? God, I need help.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsFY0DMmfv
“You know,” Akria spoke between kisses, “we could just do this for a while.”
Akira stopped the session by placing his thumb over my lips. He dragged his thumb across my bottom lip, pulling it down slightly. He licked his lips, a familiar-looking hunger glazing his eyes, yet he waited for me to give an answer.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0vISd8yrZ
I need to get him to hate me, “Why don’t we watch a Sci-Fi movie?”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjSpeVP3Qc
I don’t understand how quickly he could turn off the hunger, but it was gone now, “Great! Your movies are on your bookshelf, right? I’ll be back. Just wait on the couch for me.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDUd8uNg44
With that, he went upstairs to my room. I brought my hand up to my lips, lost in thought with the memory of what just happened. I gave a sigh before making my way to our living room. Of course, I took a small pit stop at the front door to lock it.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3NiYgIzfD
The couch wasn’t anything special, but definitely big enough for at least four people. I sat at one of the ends, wanting to put as much space between me and Akira as possible. Hopefully, he takes the hint. It wasn’t long until Akira came down the stairs, a movie in hand. I couldn’t see what it was, but if I owned it, I must like it. I need to add another punishment for thinking like that.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KqpCl7V4u
Whenever I go over to people’s houses, which is not very often, I always ask how to do something or if I’m allowed to do something. But Akira just put in the movie like it was nothing. I don’t even know how to work the damn thing!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPKzqRshsO
The movie began, and Akira sat at the other end of the couch. Well, by sitting, I mean he laid down. His feet were about a foot away from me. How could he be this relaxed?!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpAT5jtq0t
“Max.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4Nil271pt
I turned my attention to Akira, the same smile as before resting on his face as he patted his chest. I tilted my head, confused as to what he wanted. Akira chuckled before sitting up and reaching out to me.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQz2ADVGmq
How the hell did I end up lying on top of Akira?! My hands were on his chest, and Akira’s attention went straight to the unknown movie. My heart can’t take these kinds of actions. I can feel it almost bursting with embarrassment.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7bxap2gKn
I felt something on my head, something moving. Oh God, he’s playing with my hair! That’s so sweet! Agh! Wait, I didn’t mean that! I take it back!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0hHOqkDUi
“You know you can get comfortable, right? Just make sure you stay on top of me.”
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsk1uljOodI
Akira’s words weren’t helping the situation. How can I get comfortable when I’m on top of a hot guy? Fuck! He’s not hot, not hot at all!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17VzmP0Esj
I’ve only dreamed of moments like this. My significant other and I would cuddle on the couch, holding hands and having random makeout sessions. Akira’s doing everything right… and at this rate…
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDKc88oFdC
No! Don’t think like that! You need to have Akira fall out of love, not you in love! But it’s not like I’m falling in love or anything! Nothing like that at all! We can barely call ourselves friends… right?
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjkFymgEx2
I don’t know, really, anything about Akira. I know he doesn’t get bad grades, even though he looks like the type that would. He usually dresses in all black and gives off a ‘you hurt my friends, and you’re dead’ vibe. That’s it! That’s all I know!
I guess you can count that I know he’s at least a bit gay. He said he liked me, well, ‘loved’ was the proper term. Either way, he swings in the same direction I do, but I don’t know if he swings both ways. I can’t recall him ever having a crush on a female, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMB23kWX9c
I know so little about him, yet Akira says he loves me. How much does he know about me? Akira doesn’t seem like the guy to have a one-time fling with someone, but maybe he is. Again, I don’t know anything about him!
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tKO0sfiP6
Something touched my head, taking me from my thoughts and scaring me slightly; enough to make me jump. A soft, deep chuckle rang in my ear, the hot breath and vibrations off Akira’s chest calming me down. Akira’s fingers moved slowly through my hair, and I couldn’t help but close my eyes at the feeling. Damn… he’s pretty good at that.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8X2lZpAcE
I felt myself smile softly as Akira messaged my scalp. My body relaxed, and I laid my head down on his chest, listening to his heartbeat's soft thump. Akira shifted under me, pulling his other arm out from being pinned between the couch, and I felt him wrap his arm around me.
697Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ctFT2yQV2
Safe… warm… fuzzy… I haven’t felt like this in a long time. Maybe ever? Is this what cuddling is supposed to feel like? I’ve never cuddled with someone before. I snuggled with my mom after having a bad dream, but that was when I was 7. I can admit… it feels nice.
