Chapter Text

Rin had been in a mood. All things considered, everything was going great. He was pursuing his dream and he was on reasonably good terms with everyone. He couldn’t figure out why he still felt so dissatisfied. The last time he felt “normal”, whatever that was, had been when he last swam with Haru. He decided to give into his whim. Haru didn’t answer his phone when he tried calling and texting so Rin switched tactics and called Makoto.

“Hey, Rin!” Makoto answered in a lively tone.

“Hey, are you with Haru right now?”

“Yeah, we were about to get some dinner. Do you want to join us?” Makoto offered cheerfully.

Rin considered it. Being with Haru and Makoto always made him feel like a third wheel, unless they were swimming. “Nah, thanks for the offer. Maybe next time.”

Rin moved to hang up but he stopped in his tracks with Makoto’s abrupt “wait!”

“Hmm?” Rin answered.

“Did you need something? I can give the phone to Haru if you’d rather talk to him.”

“No, it’s okay. I was going to see if Haru was up for practicing together soon, but it’s not urgent. He can just call me back later.” It wasn’t a total lie. Rin did want to practice with Haru, but he’d really hoped it could have been more immediate, which was stupid when he thought about it.

“Oh, okay. Hopefully we can all hang out together soon.” Makoto was as frustratingly sweet as ever.

“Sure. Have fun.”

Rin slumped in his chair. He didn’t know what his problem was. He thought Haru and Makoto were both great but it annoyed him to no end that they were always together. For as long as he’d known them, they’d been joined at the hip. They had something that Rin had never had with anyone before. Rin had a bit of a bad habit of pushing people away but he was trying to be better about that. Sousuke was a good friend but he’d never bonded with him in the same way as Haru and Makoto. Really, there was only one person he could think of that came close to that kind of friendship, and honestly Rin had always taken him for granted. He swallowed his self-loathing and picked up his phone again.

“Hello? Senpai?”

“Hey, Nitori. It’s been a while. Do you want to hang out and catch up?”

………

Rin surprised himself by making it to the agreed-upon restaurant in record time. Had he actually missed Nitori without realizing it? Or maybe he was just starved for interaction… Either way, he was thankful that Nitori agreed to meet him. Rin got them a table, and it ended up being a secluded table for two.

Nitori arrived outside the door a few minutes later, huffing and puffing for a brief moment before patting down his wind-blown hair. Apparently Rin hadn’t been the only one in a hurry. Nitori opened the door and caught Rin’s eye. Rin waved him over and Nitori burst into the biggest and brightest smile he’d ever seen. The warmth of companionship spread through Rin’s chest.

It really had been a while. Nitori no longer had that lingering baby fat from his high school years. He was lean with a pleasingly sharp jawline. There was no better word for it. Nitori was handsome.The thought caught Rin off guard but he ignored it as he greeted his old friend. They ordered drinks and food, then spent a while catching up. It felt good to spend time with him again.

“I’m having a great time and I’m really glad you invited me, but I can’t help wondering why you suddenly wanted to catch up,” Nitori hinted, emboldened by finishing his drink and ordering a second.

Rin sighed. “Will you be upset if it’s something other than just wanting to see you?”

“Honestly? I would have been shocked if that was the real reason.”

“Man, am I really that shitty?” Rin grumbled.

“Not at all. It’s just human nature. Most people have a reason they want to reconnect. Besides, I think we both know that our friendship in highschool was mostly because I followed you around like a lost puppy. Now, spill.”

Rin went slightly slack jawed but recovered quickly. “You’ve changed. I like this new confidence you’ve got going.”

“Thanks!” Nitori grinned. “But you’re stalling.”

“I don’t really know. I just don’t feel like myself. It’s almost like I’ve turned back into my moody high school self again. Things are good, really good, great even, so why?”

“What helped you back then?” Nitori prompted although they both knew the answer.

“Getting out of my dad’s shadow and deciding what it was I wanted, and of course, swimming with Haru again.”

“Would you rather be with him right now?” 

Rin nearly missed the slight edge Nitori had with that statement but pressed on. “Well, he and Makoto invited me out with them but I turned them down.”

“Oh?” Nitori was alive with renewed intrigue.

“Yeah, I just didn’t feel like playing third wheel to them again. Haru doesn’t even seem to notice how lucky he is to always have Makoto behind him. Not just him either, shit, he’s the weirdest guy I know and yet people still gravitate to him. It’s just infuriating. I mean, I know I used to push people away. Sometimes I still do, but I’m trying. I just don’t see why he always gets to have people there for him and I’m just… alone.” Rin hadn’t even realized he felt that way until it came tumbling from his lips. He was jealous and lonely. How pathetic.

Nitori giggled lightly. “But, Senpai, there are a lot of people behind you too. All of your old teammates from Samezuka, especially Sousuke and Momo, your family, all of your friends from Iwatobi, they’re not just standing behind Haru you know. I’ll gladly be your biggest supporter again. Please don’t feel like you’re alone.”

Rin sucked in a breath. He didn’t realize how much he needed to hear that. He put his head down feeling a little embarrassed. “Thanks, Ai.”

“You’re welcome, Senpai. I’m happy to help in any way I–”

“Rin,” he cut him off.

“What?” Ai responded bewildered.

“You should call me Rin. I’m not your senpai any more.”

“Is that really okay?” 

“Of course, we’re friends.” Rin gave a rare wide smirk.

“Okay… Rin.” Ai flushed deeply and Rin tried to ignore the quickening of his own heart.

………

Rin started spending more time with Ai, and unlike high school, he was very aware of him. Ai had grown into a really amazing person. He’d been a good guy in high school but he was a little weird and uptight. He’d become more comfortable with himself and seemed so much happier. It made Rin feel happy too. 

One quality lingered from the old Ai. He still blushed everytime he said Rin’s name. He would look away shyly and whisper it like it was only meant for the two of them. Rin got a warm, twisty feeling in his stomach every time it happened. He wanted to see it even more. He had an idea about the implications of such thoughts, but he did his best not to entertain them. Rin was so much happier with Ai by his side, he didn’t want anything to jeopardize their newly rekindled friendship.

One day, they were spending time at Rin's apartment. He got a little too complacent and blurted out, “Do you have a girlfriend?”

Ai just laughed. “I’ve never had one. I’m gay.”

Rin’s chest throbbed with an intensity that he didn’t know was possible. Ai was gay? Maybe that meant… No, it was too dangerous for his mind to go down that path. He continued with his line of questioning. “Well, a boyfriend then?”

“Nope. I dated someone for a little while right after high school when I came out, but I’m living the single life now. What about you?”

“I’m not seeing anyone.” Rin busied himself with making tea so he wouldn't blurt out anything else unintentionally.

“Please don’t get mad, but I’ve always wondered… Are you straight?” Ai asked.

Rin couldn’t read Ai’s expression. He was usually attracted to women but every so often a guy would catch his eye. He wondered if he should actually admit that and decided it was best to be honest. “Bisexual, probably.”

“Probably?” Ai questioned skeptically. 

Rin felt his cheeks warm. It was getting into some deep territory. He remembered that if he wanted to continue getting closer to Ai, then he would have to talk about uncomfortable things sometimes. “Yeah, I’ve been attracted to a few guys before but it never went any further than that. I guess I’ve always been nervous to take that step.”

“That’s fair. It’s not easy, but at least for me, being true to myself is the best thing I’ve ever done and if someone has a problem with it, they can kiss my ass.” Ai had a determined look on his face that made Rin chuckle.

“I’m both shocked and impressed by that attitude, especially from you,” Rin admitted.

“I had to learn to stand up for myself,” Ai pointed out. “It freed me.”

“Be careful or you’ll start sounding like Haru,” Rin teased.

“I guess there are worse people to be compared to," Ai mumbled. 

“Why do I get the sense that you don’t really like Haru?” Rin probed.

“I used to be really jealous. I did anything and everything to try to help you but in the end it was him. I’m glad you got what you needed but I wanted it to be from me. That’s really petty, huh?”

“Maybe but it’s also sweet. I should have appreciated you more back then.” 

“We were both doing the best we could. I’m just glad we can be even closer now… Rin.”

Warmth twisted into Rin's gut and simmered until it reached his face. Why did hearing Ai say his name like that affect him so much? It made him want to do something reckless. Instead he offered a cup of tea to Ai. This line of questioning was going to get his ass into a tight spot if he didn't pay more attention.

"I'm glad too," Rin finally admitted.

………

Rin and Haru finally met up to practice together, but Makoto came too. Rin tried not to get annoyed. Makoto noticed. Of course he did. When Haru ran off to the bathroom, Rin was cornered.

"Rin, do you hate me?" Makoto asked timidly but resolutely.

"What? No, of course not."

"Oh, you just always seem to want to hang out with Haru without me. I just thought maybe I annoyed you." Makoto looked away and Rin realized how much it must have been bothering him. Rin had gotten more comfortable with being open ever since he'd been getting closer to Ai. He decided to be honest.

"That's not it. It's just hard to be around when you two are together. It's like there's no space for me but that's my issue, not yours."

Makoto looked surprised, then slipped into his trademark shy smile. "I know how you feel. Even though Haru and I are so close, I feel like I don't fit when you two swim together. It's a place I can't reach."

Suddenly it clicked in Rin's mind. He probably wouldn't have figured it out if it hadn't been for spending so much time with Ai. "You're in love with him, aren't you?"

Makoto's face turned the shade of a ripe tomato. "Wh-what?"

"Don't worry. I don't like Haru in that way, and I won't tell him, but you probably should."

"I can't… what if it ruins what we have now." 

Rin knew that worry. It was different but also so similar that it hurt. The advice he was about to give, he knew he needed for himself too. "It could change things, but have you considered the possibility that it could get even better?"

"I mean… yeah, I've thought of that but what if he doesn't feel the same way."

"Do you really think your friendship would crumble over something like that? I can't see it. You and Haru are so ingrained in each other's lives. Even if he doesn't feel that way, he's not going anywhere."

"Thanks, Rin. Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to tell him."

Chapter Text

After everything Rin said to Makoto, he knew he needed to talk to Ai. It would have been incredibly hypocritical not to, so when Ai asked him out to coffee, Rin jumped at the opportunity. Why was he so nervous? If anything, he had an advantage over Makoto’s situation because he knew that Ai was gay. Still, there was no guarantee that Ai was interested. Rin was pretty sure Ai harbored a crush for him in high school but they weren’t teenagers anymore. If only Rin had figured things out back then… No, that thought wasn’t useful. He and Ai both needed time to learn about themselves and mature. Their time apart was needed… but Rin still wished he had done a better job of being a friend.

“Rin,” Ai’s soft voice greeted him. His cheeks were painted pink. “I got you a drink.”

“Oh, thank you,” Rin accepted, feeling his own face warm. He felt silly, like a schoolgirl getting flustered over her crush. Rin had always been ‘the crush’ in those scenarios and it felt weird having the dynamic flipped.

“You seemed like you were really deep in thought.”

“Yeah, I guess so,” Rin took a sip from his cup and felt the warm bitter liquid cascading over his tongue, tempered by the frothed milk with just a hint of sweetness at the end. Of course Ai had picked something that he would love. It wasn’t his usual order but it suited him perfectly. “This is good.”

“I’m so glad you like it. I was a little worried about what to pick,” Ai admitted sheepishly.

“I could have bought us coffee…”

“Don’t worry about it,” Ai dismissed. “I did it because I wanted to.”

“Next time, I’ll buy,” Rin responded resolutely.

“Okay!” Ai grinned cheerfully. He was so adorable. Rin flushed. He had to say what was on his mind or he was going to go insane.

“Ai,” Rin began softly.

“Hmm? What is it?”

Rin faltered. He rarely confessed to anyone and he’d never confessed to a guy before, but this was Ai. Their friendship could survive regardless of what happened, right? He took a deep breath. “It’s taken me a long time to figure out how much you mean to me. I’ll understand if you aren’t interested in a guy that has as many issues as I have, but if you’ll have me, I’d really like to date you.”

“Rin…” Ai whispered.

Rin wasn’t sure what that tone meant. Wonder? Discomfort? He wanted to run off. He felt so stupid. Who confessed like that? His stubborn side held him in place. He had to know Ai’s response or he would never be able to live with himself.

“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to hear you say something like that,” Ai admitted.

“Really?” Rin asked with a spark of hope.

“Yeah,” Ai smirked. “But why did you have to insult yourself in the process?”

“Huh?”

Ai touched his hand. “Anyone would be lucky to have a guy like you…”

That confused Rin. Was it actually going to turn out to be a rejection after all?

Ai continued, “but I’m the luckiest one of all because you picked me.”

Rin’s heart leapt. “You mean, you’ll really go out with me?”

“Of course, you goofball, I’ve had a crush on you forever.”

Rin’s heart filled with joy. He grabbed Ai’s hand, cradling it tenderly and brushing his thumb over Ai’s knuckles. “I’m so happy.”

“I am too.” Ai smiled fondly. “I have to admit, I’m surprised. I know you were really worried about being bi. It’s not something you can hide if we date openly.”

“I know, but the chance to be with you is a good motivator.”

“Rin.” Ai blushed again. Rin didn’t think he would ever get tired of that.

They finished their drinks and went for a walk hand in hand. Rin’s heart didn’t want to behave as it pounded with adrenaline. Rin had never been so aware of another person outside of a race. He really wanted to kiss Ai. It would be okay to kiss since they were dating, right? Still, Rin was a little nervous. Was it the same as kissing a girl? Had he ever liked a girl as much as he liked Ai? That was a scary thought.

“Are you okay? You’re so quiet,” Ai pointed out.

Rin discreetly took a peek around. There weren’t many people out and he was having trouble focusing on anything else. He stopped walking and Ai faced him looking a little worried. The drumming in Rin’s chest increased ten-fold. Rin reached for Ai’s cheek and caressed it as the skin erupted with color. 

“Can I kiss you?” Rin asked.

“Yes.”

Rin pulled Ai in. His thumb brushed over the mole beneath Ai’s eye. Ai’s chin was already perfectly angled for him. There was no doubt about his willingness. Finally Rin closed the last of the gap and kissed Ai gently. Excitement got the better of him, so instead of pulling away, he deepened the kiss. Rin heard a soft sigh from Ai’s throat, like he’d been waiting for this for far too long. 

Rin was determined to make up for lost time. He pulled Ai’s body flush against his own. He swiped his tongue against Ai’s lips. Ai met him at every turn and their mouths conformed to a simple give and take that made Rin feel hot and wanting. Needing to calm down, Rin finally pulled away. Ai had a glazed over expression like he hadn’t quite returned to a non-kissing state. Rin didn’t know if he wanted to chuckle about it or immediately pull Ai in for more kisses.

Rin opted for kissing Ai’s hand. He interlocked their fingers and guided them back to his apartment. He knew it was a little bold. Even if they didn’t go all the way, he could at least enjoy a nice long makeout session on the couch. Hell, he would even settle for cuddles while watching a movie. He just wanted to be with him.

They’d barely stepped into the apartment and kicked off their shoes when Ai whispered, “Rin…”

He looked at Ai. His heart throbbed and adrenaline rushed through him. His whole self ached at the thought of hearing his name on Ai’s lips in the heat of passion. He couldn’t stop his body’s automatic response and was already getting hard.

Ai didn’t say anything else. Rin wasn’t sure if it was nerves or not knowing what words to say. He was pleasantly surprised when Ai closed the distance between them and kissed him. Rin felt tingles shoot through him. He wrapped his arms around Ai’s waist, pulling him as close as he could. Ai’s arms went around his shoulders. He knew Ai had to be on his tiptoes, a fact he definitely wanted to take advantage of. Rin forced them over a few steps, and when they were nearly at the wall, he lifted Ai easily and braced him against the wall. Ai’s legs instinctively wrapped around Rin’s waist.

The movement broke their kiss, so Rin asked, “Is this okay?”

“Yes.” Ai’s voice was thick with desire and Rin had to be careful not to lose control.

Rin latched onto Ai’s throat and marked him. He tried to be careful with his sharp teeth but Ai’s arms tightened, forcing him to suck harder and bite at the soft skin. Rin realized that Ai was really into it, despite the obvious pain he must have felt… or perhaps because of it. As if on cue, Ai moaned intensely as Rin’s teeth dragged across the sore spot again.

Rin finally got a little bit of separation. He purred in Ai’s ear, “Could my Ai be a little kinky?”

“Rin,” Ai moaned.

Rin unintentionally bucked his hips at the sound and his bulge slid against Ai’s ass. There were suddenly way too many clothes between them. Rin growled, “Do you want to fuck?”

“Yes,” Ai whined.

Rin debated putting Ai down to walk to the bedroom but he decided it would be more fun to do it himself. Ai had always been small and thin, and Rin was definitely strong, so he had no trouble carrying him. Rin deposited him on his bed and pulled his own shirt over his head. Ai stared at him with no indication that he would look away, a blush coated his cheekbones. 

“How many times have you seen me shirtless?” Rin teased lightly.

“It’s different,” Ai defended.

“Is that so? Prove it.”

Ai sat up and pulled his shirt off followed by unfastening his pants. Rin gulped and surveyed Ai carefully. Damn it. It was different. Before Ai could get any further with his clothes, Rin covered his hands. Ai moved his hands away and let Rin take over. Ai lifted his hips and let Rin slide down his pants and underwear. Ai blushed. Rin assumed it was from being exposed, but he wasn’t going to make Ai be the only one naked. Rin shed the rest of his clothes and climbed onto the bed.

“You’re bigger than me,” Ai pointed out shyly.

“But you knew that already, didn’t you?” Rin challenged.

“I didn’t get a good look back then…”

“Don’t lie.” Rin smirked. He remembered that day back when they were roommates and Ai walked in on him jerking off. Ai had stared for several moments before turning around and apologizing as he ran from the dorm room. 

“Okay, maybe I did get a good look but it wasn’t like I was able to compare them,” Ai defended.

“Mhmm and how many times did you think about it after?”

Ai covered his face with his hand. “Almost constantly.”

“And how does the real thing compare to your memory?” Rin asked while pulling Ai’s hand from his face.

“It’s so much better,” Ai admitted, red creeping down from his face to his chest.

“Well, since I’ve embarrassed you, I’ll tell you a little secret. Sometimes I would get off to thinking about your reaction that day.” Rin’s voice dropped to a whisper. “And those times, I usually came the hardest.”

Ai’s jaw dropped and a whimper escaped from his throat.

“See? I was knee deep in denial, but I’ve always been attracted to you.”

Ai shivered and Rin saw goosebumps erupt all over his skin. Ai was shy but resolved as he requested, “Rin, please… please fuck me.”

“You know I haven’t done it with a guy before,” Rin pointed out.

“I know, but I have.”

Rin should have known that since Ai used to have a boyfriend, but it made him a little jealous, which wasn’t fair to Ai. He pushed away his past regret. “How do I get you ready?”

“Oh, I can do that!” Ai dismissed

“Ai,” Rin warned.

“I just didn’t think you would want to have to do it…” Ai admitted.

Rin noticed some insecurity behind the statement and knew he would have to address that first. “Ai, I know I’ve been an ass. I was a terrible friend in high school and took advantage of your loyalty, but I don’t want you to continue to think of us as being on different levels. We need to see each other as equals or this relationship will never work. Let me show you that you’re worthy.”

“Rin.” Ai’s glassy eyes threatened to spill over but Rin brushed at the corner just in time. “I’ll try to do better. Please be patient with me.”

Rin would do everything in his power to make up for how he used to be. He caressed his cheek “Of course. After all, you’ve put up with my bullshit for years.”

Rin gave him a tender kiss. The whirlwind of lust had passed but Rin didn’t mind. Ai’s well being was worth the interruption and he knew they could recapture the mood. He tested the waters with peppering kisses on Ai’s chest. Regardless if things progressed again, Rin needed Ai to know that he was still wanted.

“I want to keep going but I can wait if you want to stop,” Rin promised.

Ai shook his head. Rin wasn’t sure if that meant ‘no, I want to stop’ or ‘no, I want to keep going’. The ambiguity made him pull back, just in case. Ai clarified, “I don’t want to stop.”

Rin smirked and kissed Ai firmly, letting their tongues tussle at the junction of their mouths. Rin ran his fingers down Ai’s chest until he found his nipple. He rubbed circles around the peak. Ai whimpered in the back of his throat. Rin nipped at Ai’s lips making him moan even more. He withdrew at the taste of blood. A small drop of blood gathered at the edge of Ai’s lip.

“Oh shit, I’m sorry, Ai.”

“You don’t have to apologize… I don’t mind it,” Ai revealed bashfully.

“So you are a little kinky,” Rin accused.

“Don’t tease me. It’s just, I think your teeth are sexy.” Ai blushed again.

“Is that right? Is there anywhere you imagined me biting you?”

“Yes,” Ai confessed.

“Tell me,” Rin insisted.

“Here.” Ai touched his neck and sensually trailed his fingertips over his collarbone. Rin couldn’t keep his eyes off of him. He placed brief but noticeable bites everywhere Ai’s fingers stopped. Rin followed the fingers down to Ai’s nipples. He sucked on one and nibbled on the tip, careful not to break the skin in such a sensitive area. Rin gave the same treatment to the other. Ai’s soft moans encouraged him at every step.

“My wrists.” Ai moved his hand into Rin’s line of vision. Rin nipped at the thin skin of Ai’s wrists. He wanted to be careful but Ai continued to spur him on. 

“Here,” Ai continued, touching his hip bone. Rin’s mouth went dry.. The throbbing in Rin’s dick reminded him to keep going while his heart made sure to keep the attention on his lover. Rin left bite marks on both hips, alternating with affectionate kisses. Ai was panting in anticipation.

“And here.” Ai’s fingers slipped lower until they reached his inner thigh. Fuck. Rin had never been so turned on. He got lower and sunk his teeth into Ai’s quivering flesh. Ai cried out. Rin got a little anxious when he first heard the scream, but when it turned into an intense moan, he kept going. He bit and sucked sore spots all over Ai’s thighs, watching Ai turn more and more into a mess of desire. 

Rin sat up, giving Ai a break, as he reached for the bottle of lube in his nightstand. He wasn’t sure exactly what he would need to do but he knew he would at least need the lube somewhere along the way. Rin leaned in close, dotting Ai’s neck and jaw with kisses. “Tell me how to please you.”

Ai shuddered. “You- you have to use your fingers…”

“Mhmm, and?” Rin was pretty sure he knew what Ai meant but making him say it was so titillating that he couldn’t resist.

“Stretch me open so I can…” Ai trailed off.

“So you can what? Be specific, Ai,” Rin teased flirtatiously, sitting up to look into Ai’s shy face.

Ai surprised him by giving him a determined look. “So I can take your fat cock up my tight ass.”

Fuck! Rin nearly lost it but tried to cover it up by kissing Ai fiercely. His sweet innocent Ai was not so innocent after all, but he had no complaints. This sexy confident Ai had Rin wrapped around his finger. 

Rin pressed against Ai’s ass with a single finger but it barely slipped past the surface. He realized it wasn’t like being with a girl who naturally had moisture. He removed his hand and tried again with his finger coated in lubricant. He was able to slide past the resistance of the ring of muscles and start thrusting his finger in and out.

Ai hummed. “You’re a fast learner.”

“Did you expect anything else?” Rin smirked cockily.

Ai answered with a soft moan as he moved against Rin’s finger trying to take it deeper. Rin decided to add a second finger. He twisted and scissored his fingers trying to encourage Ai’s opening to relax and stretch. 

“Curl your fingers,” Ai instructed.

Rin tried it without much reaction but Ai urged him to keep trying without Rin even knowing what he was trying to do. Then he felt a spot that was a different texture. He assumed that it was what he was supposed to find and rubbed against it with intention.

“Fuck! Yes, right there!” Ai squirmed against his touch. 

Rin was shocked at the response but if it made Ai feel good, he was going to focus his attention there. His fingers thrusted and curled inside of Ai, making him gasp and moan Rin’s name. 

“Wait,” Ai shouted. Rin froze. Had he done something wrong? He was certain the anxiety was written on his face as he searched Ai’s for answers. Ai caressed his cheek. “Don’t worry. I stopped you because it felt too good. I don’t want to cum yet. I want to feel you inside me first.”

“Fuck, Ai. How can you just say that so casually?”

“Does it bother you?” Ai worried.

“Bother me? What? No! It turns me on way too much,” Rin admitted, feeling a little shy.

Ai smirked. Rin had never seen Ai with that look. It made him feel nervous and a little too hot. When had the tables turned? Ai pulled Rin closer. He kissed his mouth and his cheek, finally whispering in his ear, “Rin, I want you to put three fingers in me and stretch me open. Then I want to feel your cock slide into me, slowly at first. Then I want you to pound me into the bed with everything you have.”

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! Rin nearly lost it again and took a few deep breaths trying to regain control. Rin nipped at Ai’s ear as he pushed a third finger inside Ai’s ass. Ai whimpered and grinded against his fingers. Rin couldn’t take it anymore. He pulled his fingers out and grabbed a condom, rolling it onto his too sensitive cock. He knew he would have to be careful if he wanted to make things last. 

He coated himself with lube and settled himself at Ai’s entrance. He hoisted Ai’s hips in the air to get a better angle and pressed against the loosened hole. It was still a snug fit and Rin had to pause with just the tip inside. God, it was so tight. He wished he could buck wildly to get off but he wanted it to be better than that so he held back. He pushed in a little more and grunted at the overwhelming heat. He had to use his old trick of holding himself off by squeezing hard at the base of his dick.

“Does it hurt?” Ai asked cautiously.

“No, the opposite. Why would you even ask that?”

“You looked like you were in pain for a moment,” Ai pointed out.

“That’s because I had to hold back. Besides, isn’t that the question I should be asking you?”

Ai looked away shyly. “But I’m used to this…”

“Have you been with that many guys?” Rin accused, feeling jealous.

“Not like that! I’ve only done it with my ex. I meant with toys and stuff.”

Rin’s dick twitched. “Toys, huh? You will have to show me one day.”

The distraction helped Rin calm down a little and he was able to slowly push inside of Ai until they were fully pressed together. He kissed Ai affectionately, shoving his tongue in for a quick taste before releasing his lips again. He gave an experimental thrust that made them both groan. He hooked his hands under Ai’s knees, pushing him forward. It was a good thing that Ai was so flexible. Ai took over the hold on his own legs, leaving Rin to grab Ai’s cute perky ass as he started moving at a slow steady pace.

Ai sounded angelic with his whimpering moans. His face was contorted into a debauched expression of pure pleasure. His body trembled beneath Rin’s touch. Rin would never be able to get enough of Ai like this but he was certain that they would have a hell of a good time trying. Ai screamed out as Rin’s thrusts got faster and harder.

“More!” Ai cried out.

Just like Ai had asked, Rin tightened his grip and pounded into Ai with everything he could. He knew he wouldn’t be able to continue holding himself off for long but he wanted Ai to come first. He grasped Ai’s dick and stroked in time with pumping in and out of his ass, a truly blistering pace. 

“Rin, Rin, Rin,” Ai moaned over and over again until they just turned into shouts of pleasure.

Rin felt the spasms around his dick first then noticed Ai coming all over his hand. He mentally praised his own restraint and gave himself over to his own pleasure. It didn’t take more than a few thrusts before he climaxed with a growl. 

He rode out the waves of his orgasm before slowing to a stop and pulling out. He peeled off the condom and threw it into the small trash can by his bed. He hastily wiped up the majority of their mess with a few tissues before allowing himself to collapse on the bed next to Ai. He pulled Ai against his chest and held him with a death grip disguised as cuddling. Ai didn’t complain, he nuzzled against Rin. Ai caressed Rin’s back alternating between feather-light fingertips and smooth fingernails, making goosebumps erupt all over his body.

“That was the best sex I’ve ever had,” Rin confessed.

“Me too,” Ai responded. Rin didn’t comment on the fact that Ai didn’t have a lot of opportunities for comparison and took the intended compliment.

“You’re going to be in pain later. I bit you so many times.”

“But I asked for them,” Ai pointed out. “Besides, I’m not complaining. It’s worth it, plus I like being marked.”

“I never took you for the kinky seductive type. Is that innocent look all an act?”

“It was real in high school, and to be fair, I get shy with you because I like you so much, but I tried to bring out my confident side when I saw how much you liked it,” Ai explained.

“I did like it… alot.”

Ai shined with a smile meant only for Rin. “I’m so happy you did!”

Rin’s heart thumped. He combed the hair away from Ai’s forehead and placed a tender kiss there. “Shower?”

They showered together, making out and touching more. Rin put affection into every action, every kiss, every caress. He was so head-over-heels for Ai. He wanted this, wanted to treasure him, hold him, love him. It made his heart swell with joy. 

After drying their hair and laying back down, Ai almost immediately fell asleep with his head pressed against Rin’s chest. Rin got an idea. He carefully grabbed his phone and silently snapped a picture of the two of them cuddled up. It was reasonably tasteful. It was obvious that they weren’t wearing shirts and some of Ai’s bite marks were visible but overall it was a very sweet photo. He wanted the memory, sure, but he also had another plan.

He sent the picture to Makoto with the caption, “Your turn.”
