Goofy

Pairing: Harutoki; Tomomasa + Takamichi
Warnings: None
If I’d the knack
I’d sing like
cherry flakes falling (Basho)
“What,” Takamichi asked as Tomomasa pulled him into his arms and twirled them naked about the room, “do you think you’re doing?”
“Dancing for joy, my love. Dancing for joy,” Tomomasa purred, giving a lewd shake to his hips.
“You’re drunk aren’t you?”
“Why must I be drunk? Did you see me dipping into the sake?”
“No,” Takamichi said slowly, allowing himself to be dipped and whirled, “but I must ask, since surely there is no other explanation for this.”
“This,” Tomomasa repeated, “is the effect your lovemaking has on me.”
Tomomasa raised Takamichi’s hand to his lips, kissing each soft finger in turn. His eyes lingered on Takamichi’s face and Takamichi’s breath caught, his heart suddenly thumping. His response was so instinctual, so automatic that Takamichi did not realize he had moved until he found himself pressed tight against Tomomasa’s chest. When he raised his mouth for a kiss, Tomomasa did not oblige him, but instead threw his head back and warbled into the ceiling.
It was a peasant song Takamichi often heard as a child before he had come to his father’s house, one little boys sang to their sweethearts. The moment could have been romantic, would have—if Tomomasa could sing. As it was, the older man’s modulated voice, so finely tuned for seduction, could not rise out of that low register, even for song. Takamichi winced.
“I’m guessing this is not the voice that wooed a thousand lovers.”
“No.” Tomomasa laughed, bending to capture Takamichi’s lips. “Just one,” he said winking. “Just one.”
