Fandom: Loveless
Theme: #29 – the sound of waves
Disclaimer: Loveless and its characters [sadly] don’t belong to me.
Notes: Err, okay, that's my first Loveless fic, and it took me ages. You'd think that (not even) 500 words would be written faster...

30_kisses.
“Sometimes I just want to fly away,” Ritsuka whispers, staring at the deep blue sea that stretches in front of him, smooth like a silken blanket.
Soubi stands beside him quietly. He knows, he doesn’t need to answer, maybe he even shouldn’t answer, but he wants to anyway. He wants to tell Ritsuka that he could spread his wings if he’d only try, that he could soar if he’d really want to. But Soubi remains silent because he knows that Ritsuka will call him a liar or get angry, and then think he said something stupid. Ritsuka will be embarrassed about it, and even though Soubi adores him when he’s blushing, he still knows that he shouldn’t say something in order to make Ritsuka feel self-conscious. So he doesn’t.
The wind increases, tousling black hair, swirling pale golden strands, tearing up the still water surface.
The waves come crashing at the rocks numerous feet below them now, the thunderous noise echoing up the cliff, so loud it makes Ritsuka wince and flatten his ears. Soubi’s fingers twitch as he tries to keep himself from covering them, to block out every sound, to block out everything that could hurt Ritsuka.
He clenches his hands into fists when Ritsuka starts shivering from the cold breeze. It’s better if he doesn’t embrace Ritsuka now, it’s better if he lets him think, lets him at least have his thoughts to himself. It isn’t important how much Soubi would like to hug Ritsuka and warm him up, the important thing is that he doesn’t.
Soubi can almost feel the spray on his face, tiny droplets that cling to his skin, and he imagines he can see them on Ritsuka’s hair, glistening in the subdued sun. He thinks he would like to ruffle these locks, so he can feel the dampness under his palms and see those violet eyes look up at him, but he doesn’t. He respects Ritsuka, and if he needs this time, Soubi is going to grant it. Maybe Ritsuka will eventually turn to Soubi and face him, and that’s when Soubi will draw him near and nuzzle his cat ears. No earlier. Because he respects Ritsuka.
But when Ritsuka sinks to his knees shaking with silent sobs, Soubi instantly rushes to his side, wrapping protective arms around the trembling form.
“Ritsuka...”
He doesn’t respond when Soubi places a soft kiss on even softer hair, tasting the lingering saltiness; instead Ritsuka’s gaze stays fixed on the troubled tide, ears still flattened at the booming sounds.
“Sometimes I want to fly away.”
*The End*

My favorite part of the fic. It's so... heartbreaking, yet warm and fuzzy. ;____; Which is confusing, but nice altogether.
