“…take me,” Kanae whispered. Yuichi started moving his hips.

“It’s been a little while since I’ve done it so many times in a row, but I’ve still got it!”

Yuichi’s words hurt his heart again, but Kanae closed his eyes.

He tried to focus on Yuichi’s warmth inside him.

Chapter 5

That’s odd.

Kanae shook his head as he looked at the calendar.

That’s strange. That’s really strange.

“What are you muttering about?”

It was weekend. As usual, Yuichi came over to Kanae’s house for dinner and beer. Yuichi was feeling lighthearted and seemed in a good mood today.

“Oh, could it be that your period hasn’t come?”

“I’ve never had one in my life.” Kanae spat. Yuichi was probably used to seeing countless girls worrying over a calendar. “That’s the first thing that springs to your mind, eh? I guess it’s not surprising, seeing as you’ve fathered your fair share of kids.”

“Nope.”

Yuichi grinned and crushed with his fist the can of beer he had finished drinking. He took another one out of the fridge.

Kanae rarely drank at home, but because of Yuichi’s influence his fridge was now stocked with beer. And along with the beer, wine and sake were also chilling in there. “Well, it wouldn’t be that weird if you were pregnant.”

“Of course it would be weird! If you keep acting like this I won’t cook you any dinner tonight.”

Kanae stuck his tongue out. Yuichi shrugged.

“Well then, can I eat you instead? I’m fine with either.”

“Fine, I’m making dinner!” Kanae got back to preparing the food. He was afraid that Yuichi actually meant what he said.

“So, why were you looking at the calendar then?”

“Oh, it’s nothing,” Kanae said jovially, and started putting together some appetizers. But he did mutter something under his breath, something that Yuichi couldn’t hear.

“It’s weird that we’ve been together for over a month.” The longest Yuichi had ever dated anyone had been three weeks. He’d heard that before Yuichi came to university, he had dated someone for six months, but probably only because he couldn’t be bothered to break up with her. Since then girls had only lasted him a few weeks.

It had already been a month and a half since the first time they had sex. There weren’t any signs that Yuichi wanted to break up with him. Rather, they’d been sleeping together every day. It wasn’t just sex though. Every night one of them would sleep over at the other’s house and spend the night in the same bed.

Moreover, with the girls that Yuichi had dated before, he would meet with them once or twice a week. And as soon as he got bored, he’d split up with them. The total amount of time he’d spent with his various girlfriends didn’t seem to amount to half as much of the time he’d now spent playing around with Kanae.

“What’s that about, I wonder?” Kanae cocked his head.

Everyday together. Sex everyday, in the same bed every night. He had expected Yuichi to be tired of him by now. He never could have anticipated this.
