tepidity | (no subject)

I plead temporary insanity, [ comes nisaka's voice, filtering amidst the sound of the water spraying down. he turns just in time to see kuroo enter behind him, pausing with a hand still held out towards the shower. he blinks a few times, then frowns. ]

Don't you have hot water?

[ of course he's going to shower. how else does one clean up after all they've done??? ]

[ Kuroo makes a face like a child being told they're not allowed to play on the swing-set one more time because it's time to go home. He might even tantrum, if tempted. ]

Yeah. I have to turn the heater on. [ He lives alone for college, dude, do you really think he has a shower fancy enough that it doesn't require some asinine ritual in order for it to work? ] Are you gonna take forever...?

[ Which of them is older, again? Kuroo only showers after matches - between them he just washes his body at the basin, since his hair is much too fine and much too thick to be able to withstand repeated rinses. Sometimes he'll wear a shower cap, but he'd rather die than wear it in front of Nisaka, and he's still conscious of the time. He also hasn't made a move for the heater, wondering if his reluctance might put Nisaka off the idea. ]

[ what the hell. what's the point of dating a hot older man if he can't even provide you with hot water and any time you want??

but it's actually kuroo's whining that gets nisaka arching a brow in turn, expression dry. he folds his arms over his chest, shifting to lean his weight on a foot, hip cocked. ]

I thought an even decade would be good enough.

[ he lets his flat tone sort of hang for a second... before his expression sharpens, giving kuroo a pointed look. ]

You know you came in me twice, right?

[ how! is he supposed to clean off! ]

[ He'll hook you up as soon as he graduates, Nisaka, give the man some time to hone his craft; all he's for right now is blocking volleyballs.

At Nisaka's answer, Kuroo's expression drops into an equally flat looking one, but it doesn't last long as it's almost immediately replaced by a sleazy grin. ]

Yup. [ He sounds proud, isn't that awful? ] Fine, fine. [ He turns away, definitely not offering to join him (despite all the potential innuendos just sitting there waiting for him), but at the very least willing to make sure he doesn't freeze to death under the cold spray. He'll probably use wipes to clean himself down enough to put on a shirt. He'll wash himself once Nisaka's done pampering. ]

I'll go make you breakfast while you shower.

[ ugh. nisaka actually makes a face over that grin. once upon a time his bluntness threw people off, now kuroo just ate it up like nothing. how far he's fallen...

anyway, he's just waving the older man off, moving to step into the shower once the temperature is warm enough. he won't take too long, less than ten minutes, really! despite his looks, he isn't as high maintenance as one would think. which is probably even more infuriating.

but guess who's coming out of the shower wearing one of your old volleyball jerseys, kuroo? and only that jersey. this guy right here, that's who. ]

[ Kuroo spends the entire ten minutes marvelling over how far his cute little boyfriend has come in their time together. He remembers a time when Nisaka struggled to talk about his desires at all, could barely look at Kuroo's cock let alone touch it.. but now he's talking about the nasty things Kuroo has done to him like it's a conversation about the weather. When did Kuroo get so lucky~?

Dreamily, and kind of embarrassingly, he hums and kind of floats around his little kitchenette, reheating miso and steaming a small serving of rice which he tops with an egg. He's so engrossed in this domestic bliss that he almost misses Nisaka padding into the kitchen wearing---

He freezes exactly where he is, egg box in hand ready to be placed back in the cupboard, eyes lighting up and focusing on the way the Nekoma insignia rests against the curve of Nisaka's chest due to his smaller size. The sleeves look huge on him too, the hem at the bottom covering him like a short dress. Kuroo practically feels his mouth water. ]

Now now, [ he murmurs, still not drawing his eyes away from the pale skin on Nisaka's thighs and the love bites across them, peeking out from under his jersey. ] You just got clean, don't tempt me.

[ a year (and some change) is a long time for a young couple in a relationship. it's the longest nisaka has had, and the only one he has put any sort of real effort in, so even nisaka himself would often marvel at all that he does and has done. he blames it all entirely on kuroo, of course. nobody else would have gotten him to try nearly as hard. (or want to.)

he pauses by the little table at the kitchenette, still far enough away that kuroo maintains a good view of him. it's completely deliberate, made especially clear when his innocently impassive expression slowly shifts into something sneakier, punctuated by the faint glint in his eyes. ]

Don't be so easily tempted, then.

[ and there it is. the first move made, the thing that will set the tone for the rest of the day. kuroo wanted them to get out and socialize? fine. but that doesn't mean nisaka isn't going to make things as hard for him as possible. pun definitely intended.

he moves to take a seat at the table, lips curving innocently at his boyfriend. ]

[ His eyes flicker up to meet Nisaka's, and the way he pulls his lip back into his mouth silently says you little shit because Kuroo knows exactly what's going on here. It would be so easy for him to snap, to drag Nisaka up by the wrist and push him across that table he's sitting at so innocently, shove the jersey up and push his legs apart and--- Kuroo stops himself before he gives in to exactly what Nisaka wants, to rile him up, to frustrate him... Ah, but it's hard to not be tempted when your boyfriend looks like Nisaka does. ]

That's easy for you to say..

[ He turns to the breakfast again, brings it over and places it in front of Nisaka. His domestic bliss is ruined, just a little, by the fact that he can't stop thinking about Nisaka's bare lower half against the seat he's sat on. He swallows. He's starting to regret the dark fitted jeans and the comfortable baseball shirt he threw on. He's starting to wish he'd stayed naked and handsy in bed.

He sits across from him, eyes unable to help themselves from wandering across the collar of his jacket, the way it rolls slightly under Nisaka's chin, the way the shoulders droop and the way the zipper lets him see almost nothing. Torture. There's something claiming, primal, about seeing Nisaka in a jersey that's been with Kuroo, belonged to him, for so long. And that, unfortunately, only turns him on more. ]

Enjoy.. [ Kuroo honestly doesn't think he can focus enough to even lift his spoon to his mouth. ]

[ nisaka hums faintly, watching as his boyfriend battles with himself. it would be a lie to say he isn't a little disappointed at the older boy's display of will power, as he would have thought a move like this would have been an easy break for him...

he supposes the day is still quite young. ]

Thanks, [ he says, picking up a spoon for his soup. he isn't being too overt in the moment, mostly because he is pretty hungry, and the idea that he's eating food kuroo prepared for him is a particularly warming one.

but he definitely lets his tongue trail over the lip of his spoon a couple of times, needlessly polishing it clean. ]

So. Who are we meeting?

[ Kuroo hisses a breath in through his teeth, eyes squinting just a little as he watches Nisaka's little pink tongue lap kitten-licks across the surface of the spoon. He's unable to think of anything but how that tongue had woken him this morning, how much he wishes they had just one more day, another night, even a few more hours so that he could cancel all their plans, so that he could have fucked him in the shower, so he could spend the entire day pulling Nisaka open and apart and--

This whole hanging out and not giving into temptation thing is going to be hard. His hands still haven't made a move to take up his spoon, are still balled in fists on the table. ]

Ichiei and Gaku from my class. Kenma was going to come too, but he had to reschedule. [ Kenma likes Nisaka, but a five person group where two of said group are people he doesn't know is exactly what Kenma doesn't like, so it's no surprise he ducked out at the last. But Kuroo barely seems to be paying any attention to what he's saying other than to move his mouth and make the words come out. He's much too distracted by everything that Nisaka is doing to him. ] They thought we could go to the movies, or get lunch at a new place that's opened near to campus. [ Kuroo licks his lips. Is being in a dark movie theater with Nisaka a good idea, he wonders? ]

They wanted to go drinking, too, but... [ His eyes trace down Nisaka's chest. It's probably also a bad idea to put alcohol in Kuroo's system when he's struggling to resist jumping his boyfriend stone sober. ]

[ perhaps if kuroo had chosen a kinder boyfriend, he wouldn't be in this mess in the first place...

but that's what he gets for being a masochist, tbh. though eventually nisaka does relent. at least enough to set his own spoon down, at least enough to notice kuroo still hasn't taken even one bite of his own breakfast.

beneath the table, he nudges kuroo's foot with his own, toes lightly trailing along the skin above the other man's ankle. ]

Eat, [ he instructs, almost gruffly. don't make him worry about you, huffhuff.... ] If you pass out while we're out, I can't carry you back home.

[ as far as plans go, nisaka has no real feelings on what they do. he's here to spend time with kuroo, after all, and while he would have preferred to spend said time alone... if kuroo wants to spend time with his friend, he won't prevent or begrudge him of that.

besides. they'll have plenty of time to visit later, he supposes. ]

[ Kuroo snaps to attention like he's been spanked for not being obedient, quickly dipping his chin and dragging his eyes away from Nisaka so he can lift his bowl to his mouth and drink down the now lukewarm soup in a few gulps. He shovels rice into his mouth, too, still without looking up.

Kuroo made tentative plans to see his classmates before Nisaka had surprised him with this visit, and he's a respectable guy who doesn't like the idea of cancelling last minute... that, and he's desperate to show Nisaka off to the friends who probably hear about him the most, to prove to them that he's as pretty as he looks in photos if not more so, and that he belongs entirely to Kuroo.

To do that, though, he needs to shift away from those wandering toes before they beckon him back into bed. He wafts his other hand, and speaks with his mouth full. ]

Go get dressed, I'll finish up here.

[ alright alright... nisaka is actually starting to feel a little bad here, so he will endeavor not to torture his boyfriend as much as he originally set out to do. it's entirely his fault for surprising the other, after all; it isn't really fair of him to expect his boyfriend to drop everything just for him.

and so he finishes up and wanders back into the room, letting his hand trail along kuroo's arm, his shoulders as he passes.

he doesn't take too long; contrary to how he looks, he doesn't actually give much thought to what he wears or how his appearance is. he still walks back in loking like he stepped out of a magazine, though, in clothes fitted much better to his body. ]

[ When Nisaka gets back the bowls are washed, Kuroo has ducked into the bathroom to wash and change his shirt, and is checking his phone standing beside the fridge. He looks up, expression visibly morphing to quiet, impressed shock as his eyes register how effortlessly handsome Nisaka is. It's no wonder Kuroo was in deep right from the first time they met.

He smiles, head tilting. ]

You look hot. [ Even when he's genuine he still seems like he's teasing, and he makes it even worse with the way his grin spreads to show teeth, even as he reaches out to take Nisaka's hand in his and pulls him toward the door and out into the street.

Kuroo's 'acceptable' little apartment is pretty close to campus - what it lacks in amenities and luxuries it makes up for in convenience - so it doesn't take them long to walk into the student district, to the signpost by which Kuroo's friends are waiting, and for Kuroo to smack both of them on the shoulder and introduce Nisaka with something like pride on his face. Ichiei is something of an airhead (which is probably why Kuroo gets on so well with him, he's easy to tease) and outright comments about how pretty Nisaka is, to which Kuroo responds by putting his arm around Nisaka's waist and pulling him a little closer.

After dropping by the cinema to score tickets for an evening performance of whatever was showing, Kuroo's friends drag them to the arcade first, because Ichiei wants a hot dog and apparently the hot dog ones are the best. As they talk animatedly over the food stand, Kuroo glances down at his boyfriend. ]

You okay?

[ His eyebrow is raised, but his smile is softer than usual. His friends can be.. a lot. ]

[ kuroo's friends were "a lot" in the same sense kuroo himself is — filled with a boundless sort of energy, always seemingly on all the time. it is overwhelming, to be sure, but not something nisaka isn't already used to, given his own friends. in a way, it's sometimes preferable. most of the time, people like that are more than happy to carry on a conversation themselves, and with three of them at a time, it's easy enough for nisaka to fade into the background like he tends to prefer, resurfacing every now and then to add a comment or two that his friends (ichiei especially) always seem to enjoy laughing at. mostly because it comes at kuroo's expense, but always in a fond way, of course.

still, the day is quite young, and they are meant to spend almost the entirety of it in each other's company. nisaka can feel himself beginning to wear thin, but he rallies well enough, even to the point of giving his boyfriend a faint smile at his question. ]

Only if you're treating, [ he murmurs, shifting just enough in his place that the back of his hand brushes against the other's, fingers lightly lacing before shying away. he still isn't as forward or as quick to the PDA as kuroo himself is, but he's getting there... in his own subtle ways.

it's an encouraging gesture that, any other time, kuroo would have likely been more than happy to pursue, but they're soon interrupted by ichiei's happy exclamation, brandishing the hot dog he'd just procured. then it's time for them to step up and order, and while nisaka had been ready to partake in the hot dog festivities just a moment ago, another item on the menu catches his eye... and he absolutely cannot help himself. (maybe kuroo has rubbed off on him more than he'd like to admit.) ]

I'll have a corndog, please, [ he announces innocently, but after a moment flicks his eyes over towards the older male. ] With mayonnaise.

Edited 2018-02-09 17:23 (UTC)

[ Not for the first time in his life, Kuroo is entirely tempted to throttle Ichiei by his own scarf. He'd been just about to retaliate to Nisaka's soft little brush by making a grab for his hand, pulling him closer and kissing him.. Maybe not on the mouth, maybe the jaw, where there are lines from Kuroo's teeth still slightly raised on his skin... But the idiot brandishes his hot dog right between them and Kuroo has to stop himself from smacking it out of his hand. He shoots him a glare, though, as Nisaka steps up to order.

When Nisaka looks at him Kuroo is thoroughly confused for a moment as to why he'd be looking at him like that - he's already made it clear he'll pay, is in fact already holding the neccessary notes in his hand... And then he looks at Nisaka's order being prepared, watches as the stand owner squirts mayonnaise over the top of the corndog and it oozes slowly down the sides in a way that's downright erotic. Kuroo's eyes squint, and he directs that squint back over to Nisaka. Surely he's not........ ]

[ surely not. nisaka isn't nearly so bold, so brazen... except he had chosen to wake up his boyfriend by stuffing his dick in his mouth, so maybe one shouldn't underestimate how much distance and time can get to a young man's heart.

then again, that had been alone, in the bedroom, in the privacy of kuroo's apartment. right here, right now, they're out in public, in front of people they know and everything. nisaka may have grown a lot in his comfort in this relationship, but it's still asking quite a lot for him to be so shameless in a situation like this.

and yet? when the newly fried treat is handed to him, he takes it delicately into his hands and thanks the server with an incline of his head. and then he's glancing aside, back towards where kuroo's two friends have gathered to wait for them. a very obvious check-in... and then he's looking back at his boyfriend, making sure to capture his eyes as his tongue darts out to catch a stray droplet of condiment up the length of his corndog. that tongue slips back into the confines of his mouth, where teeth lightly bite down on his lower lip before releasing, plump and red. ]

[ Kuroo knows exactly what's about to happen, and if he really had such a problem with getting half hard in the middle of an arcade then he should have looked away. But he doesn't, and he doesn't. He watches, not for the first time today, as Nisaka's tongue makes a pretty innocent action something lewd and sultry, something that makes Kuroo's body unsure of whether it should prioritise sending blood to his face or between his legs.

As it turns out, he manages both, flushing high in the apples of his cheeks as he feels his cock twitch in his underwear. They're in public, and Nisaka knows that the fact they're in public won't stop Kuroo if he's teased enough... The idea that that might be what Nisaka is after only makes this whole situation more arousing.

He hisses, just a bit, tilting his head so the bite mark on his jugular becomes a bit more visible, stretches against his skin, brushing against his collar. He exhales a heated breath, one that's heavy and seems to rattle from him as he takes a step closer to his boyfriend, one hand coming up to rest heavy fingers against his stomach. ]

Nisaka... [ He murmurs, almost like he's warning him, completely ignoring Ichiei as he waves and calls to them. ]

[ the low purr of kuroo's warning sends vibrations all throughout nisaka's body, making his pulse jump even more than the touch to his stomach had. he swallows thickly, knowing by now that he's definitely playing with fire here, and while a part of his mind is blaring at him in warning, the other part is... frankly intrigued. wondering just how far he can push his boyfriend before he breaks. (or, perhaps more accurately, to see who might break first.) he's sorry to say he's still quite selfish, and after four months spent apart, that selfishness is only exacerbated. the flash of that bite mark is only further proof of that, really.

instead of answering, he instead lifts the corndog between them, fitting his mouth prettily over the tip. it doesn't stretch his mouth or cheeks out nearly as much as kuroo does, but the message is definitely made. slowly, he drag his lips down over the length of the corndog, fitting as much of it into his mouth as he can before sliding his lips back up. with a cheeky smile, he bites the tip off, just enough to make a cheek bulge, and then he's whipping around, facing kuroo's friends again with a smile that is far too cheerful to be genuine to anyone who might have known him better.

he waves at them in turn, crossing the short distance and squeezing past other arcade-goers to meet them where they wait. ]

[ God. Damn.

The minute Nisaka's lips close over the tip of the corndog and start to creep downwards Kuroo takes an instinctive step forwards, like he's trying to shroud Nisaka from sight.. not because he's concerned someone might see him practically deep throating his corndog, but because Kuroo's eyes have taken on that possessive fire, intense and hot, searing as they watch Nisaka's progress down the length of it. He wants to be the only one to see this, wants to block out the world so it's just him and Nisaka and that mouth and--

And then he's gone, turned away and left Kuroo hot in the face and wanting. He exhales, long and hard, trying to calm himself with it but doing an awful job as his eyes flicker down to watch Nisaka's ass as he walks away. He has very little shame.

Though, he does feel a little shame when Gaku, the more perceptive of his two closest friends, gives him a look that's not dissimilar to the look he gives Kuroo when he catches his eye across the lecture hall, when Kuroo has been sending particularly and increasingly dirty messages to his boyfriend instead of taking notes. It's like Gaku can see right through him, can tell exactly when he's at his most foul. Kuroo avoids his gaze as he comes over. When Ichiei asks him why he didn't get anything, he answers that nothing at the stand looked all that appetising, and that he'll find something to eat later. And he puts his hand, so softly it's almost innocent, on Nisaka's ass. ]

[ it's definitely a dangerous game that nisaka is playing. not only is he risking unleashing the true extent of his boyfriend's shamelessness, but he could very well reveal himself too. hell, he's already feeling a little warm around the collar by the time he's rejoined the rest of the group. at ichiei's innocent question, and kuroo's less-than-innocent answer, and then the faint pressure on his ass—

he chokes on the piece of corndog in his mouth, causing him to hastily turn away and cough into his hand. his cheeks flare red in both arousal and embarrassment, and when kuroo's friends turn to give him a concerned look, he just shoots kuroo a quick glare in turn. he waves a hand, trying to wave off their worry, but, if he didn't know any better, he could have sworn there was a certain glint in gaku's eyes...

he endeavors to shake it off, uncharacteristically bringing up the arcade to hopefully refocus their attention. the other two boys seem amenable enough to the shift in topic, and he hangs back with kuroo as ichiei and gaku lead the way. ]

[ Kuroo's hand shifts into a shameless little squeeze as his boyfriend chokes, looking down at him with a pleased expression which, to anyone who didn't understand the unspoken things going on between them, would think Kuroo was a sadist and was enjoying Nisaka's discomfort. He is, of course, but not in that way.

He watches as his friends move away, waves innocently as Gaku turns to give him another look, and slips the fingers of the hand that's on Nisaka's ass into his waistband, feeling the hot skin under the fabric. ]

I'm gonna make you scream for that. [ He starts, voice dangerous, but lightening as his eyes scan their surroundings. ] You're asking for trouble, you know...

[ He's fucked him in a closet at Nisaka's school, a school Kuroo was at that point almost too old to even have attended, so he's clearly not shy in the face of risque things... but this environment is a step up from that. The closet, while public, had been tucked away on a temporarily uninhabited floor and here they'll be lucky to find somewhere without at least a few people occupying it; every space seems to be taken up with students or couples. ]

[ nisaka definitely knows the kind of fire he's playing with here, but that's part of what makes this all so exciting. all the other times they'd been risque, it had been different. they were still somewhat alone, still in their own little world. but here, they've two of kuroo's own friends to attend to, not to mention an entire community that belongs to kuroo, in a way. here, nisaka is a stranger, allowing him a little more room to be brave, be brazen, but it is still very much a world that they've situated themselves into, that will be just a little bit harder to remove themselves from once things get heated enough.

or maybe that wouldn't matter at all. it's sort of up in the air, and the uncertainty of it is thrilling. ]

You said that last night, [ he responds, the tone of his voice light and casual despite the quietness of it. just a conversation meant for the two of them, even as the crowds bustle around, drowning them out anyway. ] But I still have my voice, so obviously you didn't make me scream enough.

[ it's definitely a challenge, stoking the fire and tickling the dragon. he'd felt bad for it before, for teasing when kuroo had just been trying to be a good friend, but after seeing the fire in the man's eyes, after feeling his fingers dip beneath the waistband of his underwear... he knows kuroo is enjoying this just as much. and it's all the encouragement he needs. ]

Last night you weren't making me want to bend you over the nearest surface and-- [ A pause. ] Well, you were, but..

[ THE POINT IS that he's really, really aroused right now, and as his eyes watch their friends disappearing into the throng of people mulling around the arcade games, watching Ichiei as he excitedly stops before a claw machine that should keep him busy for.. a while.. he's also looking for an opportunity, even mentally scanning his surroundings, for anywhere he can drag Nisaka and get his hands on more of that pale skin, spread him open again, make him scream so loud he loses his voice..

He pushes himself closer to Nisaka, other hand coming to join his first so that to anyone looking at them it just looks like Kuroo is holding him about his lower back, the true location of his hands disguised by the folds of his jacket. His hands push a little further under his clothes, fingertips starting to feel the curve of his backside, pressing into the soft surface with a hum of appreciation for it's shape. ]

Fuck.. [ He practically whispers, nudging his hips closer again, so that Nisaka can feel the hardness starting between his legs. ] I want you.

[ there is a bit of mayonnaise on the corner of nisaka's lips that he licks at distractedly, feeling his heartrate pick up at an alarming speed. kuroo is suddenly too close, but he wants him even closer, the shift of hips and the pressure at his rear too tempting for someone as weak-willed as him in the first place. a hand settles along kuroo's arm, fingers curling delicately around a hard bicep. he hadn't been paying attention to their surroundings nearly as much as the other, but he racks his brain for all that an arcade usually entails and— ]

Photobooth, [ he says in a sudden rush, breathless. corndog in other hand long forgotten, he leans up as if to give the man a hug, but in reality it's so he can brush his lips against kuroo's ear, prime for a whisper: ] I want to ride you.
