chapter 13: Brave new world

Ichiji woke up with a tight grasp on him, near his torso and around his abs. Law was practically giving him the heimlich, holding him like he was a body pillow.

"What the fuck," Ichiji whispered, bringing his head back, but hitting Law's head instead. "Oh, sh-"

Law started to move in his sleep, but still holding up onto Ichiji tightly. I need to get up before he wakes up. This is too embarrassing. Ichiji thought, with his left hand on his chin.

After a few minutes of thinking of a plan, Ichiji felt Law's feet slowly starting to move closer to Ichiji. The right grasp slowly loosening up. Finally.

Ichiji started to slowly creep out of bed, not disturbing Law until Law seemed to reach out and pull him back into a hug.

"WH-" Ichiji's heart fell out of his chest. Law still seemed to be sleeping. Damn how much of a sleeper is this man? He wasn't doing this at the park.

Law was still tightly holding him, hard enough to seem like he was awake. FUCK.

Ichiji squirmed a little trying to get out of his grasp and Law was still snoring very loud. Goddamn, how does he sleep so soundly but move around like this? Ichiji thought, his back against Law's chest.

"This is so embarrassing," Ichiji sat there for about 5 minutes with his back against Law, unable to get out without waking him. Ichiji felt relief when Law started moving again, loosening the grip on him. Finally I can get out.

Ichiji's head was in front of Law's, so he couldn't see that Law's eyes had been open for a while now. Law hiding a smile on his face. "Good morning." Law whispered.

Ichiji's head shot up, almost hitting Law. The embarrassment trickled down his body, or maybe that was Law? Ichiji was at a loss of words; this was so embarrassing he didn't know what to do. "Good morning..."

Law laughed. "What are you doing here? I thought you wanted to sleep on the floor. What happened? Too cold?"

Ichiji rolled his eyes. "Yeah. It was cold." He slowly moved Law's locked hands off his torso.

"Awwww, we were having fun."

"No. No we weren't. You were having fun." Ichiji pointed at Law, he got his shoes from the floor and slowly put them on.

In the middle of the night Law must've taken off his shirt, Ichiji saw that Law gor up with no shirt. His skin seemed to shine with the morning light coming in. For Ichiji to look at Law's abs and muscles, it was a true sight to see. He wanted to look away, but his eyes didn't move. His veins on his arm were very visible. His eyes directed to Law's stomach, admiring every part of it.

Law saw Ichiji looking at him, letting him examine his body. He must be, a little gay? Right. I mean he's admiring my body like I'm a displayed figure. I don't know any straight man who does that. Law thought, slowly getting his shirt ready to put on.

When Law's shirt was on Ichiji quickly pulled his head away from it. He was being slick about it, his head was facing one way, but eyes another.

"I'm hungry, so I'm going downstairs. You wanna come or...?" Law asked, straightening his shirt out on him.

"Sure, in a minute; I gotta use the bathroom," Ichiji said from behind Law, going to the bathroom.

When Law got to the stairs he saw red and blue lights shining through. You could see the two colors blinking at the bottom of the stairs.

"Do you know if two young boys have come here? They came here about a day ago," A voice from downstairs said. Law's eyes widened, ever since that night those two colors blinking frightened him.
