So it really wasn't about that at all, Ai realizes. In all of this, he's incidental; whether or not he gets off, multiple times even. It's all a means to an end for Rin, who is following his own through-line. I'm not even a stand-in. Ai isn't sure if this makes him feel better or worse.
But the way Rin works his cock, tonguing his tip and causing Ai's breath to hitch and precum to bead, it's evident his body at the very least couldn't care what circumstance they were in. Fine, he thinks absently. Stamina was never his problem anyway.
"Don't," he exhales, thick and lascivious, watching Rin's free hand disappear behind his own body, giving Ai one of the most beautiful and cruel visuals he's ever had in his life. He had been so ready to surrender to Rin for now, but not at this expense; the hand in Rin's hair tightens and yanks, very gracelessly and harshly pulling Rin off from him. Forcing his head back to look up at Ai, who looks-- resigned. Yet determined. And all too hot under the collar.
His hand remains tight at the base of Rin's skull so as to keep Rin's head pulled back, looking up at him; of course, Rin could easily overpower him if he chose, but Ai has a hunch he won't. Like this, Ai's free hand slides to Rin's lips; his thumb pads at his lower lip, presses under his top lip. Smooths over one of his canines. And then his middle and index rest on Rin's bottom lip, silently demanding the obvious.
"You're being selfish." There's a vulnerable edge to his words; he doesn't just mean Rin touching himself. He doesn't mean for it to sound that way; unfortunately, Ai was never very good at lying. Despite just having had his cock down Rin's throat, it's only now he blushes, "Do you want me to touch you or not?"
The whine that is pulled out of him is something so genuine. Rin forgets his facade temporarily as Ai yanks him off of his dick. Did he push too far maybe? Not that it matters, Ai will kick him out after this is all said and done anyways--
That determined gaze smolders into him though, and Rin is temporarily dumbstruck. He stares up at Ai wide-eyed, and before he knows it there's fingers against his mouth. It's instinctual to let his jaw drop, slide his tongue across those digits. Absolutely lavishing them. His chin is already sticky and wet, but he lets some dribble pool up and over his lips. Letting his eyes hood, diligently working the fingers.
It carries on like that for a few moments, Rin acting similarly towards Ai's fingertips that he did with his dick. Maybe a little moreso now, since he can make a bit of a show out of it. His own dick is aching in his pants. He tightens his thighs together a little, just to take the edge off.
Rin yanks his mouth off of Ai's fingertips, carefully swallowing around his words. Now this can bring a little embarrassment. Because the implications of it could be taken a zillion and one different ways. Some could be accurate, others could... not so much. Rin licks his lips, leaning forward to nip at Ai's stomach, dragging his tongue against the skin immediately after.
"My bag." He pants, squeezing his eyes shut. Whether it's from shame, or just being caught like a kid with his hand in a candy jar. "There's some--"
The implication is clear, and his face burns. Which is stupid given his whole tough guy slutty act until about five milliseconds ago. But that little bottle of lube is stuffed at the bottom of his bag. It's his, just enough to take the edge off some days when his head is screaming so loud he can't shut it off. It's strawberry scented. It's absolutely not girly. It's just. Something different.
There is a universal truth about Matsuoka Rin, which is that he doesn't half-ass anything. Swimming, academics, friendships - sex, apparently. The way he goes at Ai's fingers hits his molten center coil in the same exact way Rin sucking him off did, a visual and tactical sensation so poignant it might make lesser men come on the spot. Rin's playful nip at the sensitive skin of his stomach immediately has his abdomen muscles twitching, not helping either.
Suddenly Rin's stopping though, and-- hesitating? It's the first time since they both meandered into the kitchen that Rin's looked-- I can't place his expression. Apprehensive? Unsure?--
"Ah." No, Ai doesn't cast judgment, because the other option was trekking half-way across the apartment to fetch his own (which was unscented and unremarkable) and Rin's just saved them both some time and awkward pause. He leans down, kisses Rin's lips once - it's too sweet, it's too intimate, and Ai's done it thoughtlessly - before shuffling just off the futon and to Rin's bag. He pauses though, looking behind him to Rin. Am I allowed to--? He just told you to!
He rummages, saying many mental apologies, and all the way at the bottom and toward the back of Rin's bag is, indeed, a vial of lubricant. Ai wastes no time in coming back to Rin, shuffling toward him on his knees; Ai's leaning over him some, encouraging Rin on his back. One hand shifting Rin's shirt up to expose his stomach and abdomen, admiring the visual feast before him, roaming over the expanse of athletic and strong muscle with an ardent devotion to his touch. Ai sucks in a breath to stay himself, then ducks down toward Rin's hemline, hooking a thumb into his pants and beginning to tug, lower. And lower still. Ai exposes Rin's cock, a hungry and awed look in his eyes, catching his bottom lip between his teeth. Tugs down further until the fabric pools below Rin's knees, leaving it up to him or not whether he kicks them off.
His hand splays open Rin's thighs, palm running under the v-line of his pelvis, over the base of his cock, momentarily kneading his sack. The other hand uncaps the vial with his thumb where Ai is holding it just beside himself--
He takes a whiff, stunned by how fragrant it is. He doesn't mean for it to hit him so hard, but considering the boring, label-less stuff he's used to...
He shrinks a little under the kiss. Only because it's not what he wants, nor what he was expecting. But--
Ai retrieves the bottle easily enough, and Rin can shove that awkwardness behind him as he is lowered against the futon. Ai is diligently exploring and roving over his body, and Rin can't help but sink his teeth into his lip. Haru always lavished him, even during the messier clashes of teeth and tongues. Rin's face burns a little, and he tosses his gaze to the side, slinging his arm over his eyes.
As if that could shut the memory out completely.
His hips arch, aiding Ai shucking his pants off. He knows he's staring, he can feel those eyes boring into him while he kicks off his pants awkwardly. He really just wants Ai to barely prep him, fuck him and get his rocks off. It's all he deserves after all, and...
"Huh?" He grimaces, dropping his arm from his eyes if only to bite at the skin of the back of his hand. It does little to stop the noise that follows, the embarrassed and whiny thing.
"...shut up." Rin bites out, covering his eyes again, bucking his hips.
Despite all, Ai cannot help the smile that cuts across his face, Rin's suddenly contrarian attitude just like him. Feels Rin buck his hips forward, and Ai placates him by rubbing his inner thigh.
He knows Rin's mind isn't here, hasn't been the whole time. Ai isn't delusional. He'll do what Rin wants, and will allow himself the grace of at least being able to say they've slept together. It's more than he thought he'd ever get circa ~an hour ago. It still stings, of course; sits lower in his belly than his heat does, his arousal only barely keeping it from washing over him. In a way, he kind of understands why Rin is doing all of this in the first place.
He pours the lube into his palm, warms it; spreads it over his fingers. Grips Rin's dick first, just to memorize the feeling of its weight in his palm properly. Strokes him a handful of times languidly; lazily. Ai shifts up, body hovering over Rin's; his hand shifts from Rin's length to his waist, and then under his thigh, urging his legs back and his hips up.
There is a confidence in the way Ai's finger pad presses to Rin's ass, spreading liquid slick over the taut skin, unafraid to tease at him there. Fingers roving over his sensitive entrance, playing as though he'll press in, but then retreating again. Ai swallows hard; it was getting him worked up, too. He kisses Rin hard on the lips, just for a moment; then noses his head to the side to gain access to his neck, kisses down to his clavicle.
Tracing Rin's pulse point with his tongue, Ai effortlessly slides a finger in, other hand hooked under Rin's knee and pressing it back against his chest.
He wants to bite out that he doesn't deserve the consideration or niceties. The tender touch against his thigh, or the anguishingly slow stroke of his cock. Rin curses under his breath, his body betraying him as he grabs onto Ai, dragging him closer.
His leg moves up, his hips bucking with another unbridled shudder. He instinctively wraps his free leg around Ai again, pulling him closer. All while his fingers dig into Ai's scalp. Because that unsung confidence is doing something to him. Something that Rin hates.
There's some eagerness for it, the way that finger presses against him so seamlessly. Rin gasps, and he bites his lip. This wasn't meant to be sexy, the way Ai embodies just acting like he knows it all. He looks at Ai from a hooded gaze, tilting his head back to give the access to his neck. He lets slip another curse in slurred english, his body sucking Ai's finger in.
"Ai--" He hisses, digging his nails into his scalp a little harder. That wet slip of tongue against his neck does wicked things to him. Fuck anyone who's ever said Ai is some meek little nobody. Maybe Rin should bring this up at some point to Sousuke. He swallows that thought down as quickly as it flares up, he thinks as he grits his teeth.
Confidence was all he had in his wheelhouse at the moment, and even that was going to be on short supply relatively soon. This much he was familiar with, had fun with, the sheer amount of fantasizing he's done about the man underneath him pairing very well with the relatively few times he and Sousuke had tried. He'd spend another three, four hours mapping Rin's body for every single damned inch of his skin if given the chance. He may not meet the emotional need, certainly doesn't meet the heat, but the sex? Ai can do that. Rin's made it a point to illustrate without words that was the end goal, anyway, and Ai understood the assignment implicitly.
Hearing Rin moan his name makes his cock twitch, and he's huddled close enough to Rin that he can likely feel that right against his thigh. Ai had told himself not to take up more space than necessary, to give Rin the room to mentally escape, but with the syllable of his name on Rin's lips after all--
"Senpai," he exhales thick against the prominent expanse of Rin's neck, mouth open and teeth flush against his flesh as he wordlessly and without warning slides in a second finger. Expects Rin to take it; knows that he can. Keeps his palm up and his fingertips curled and splayed inside of him, prepping as much as coaxing, "It's no good. Already, I--"
Ai straightens his elbow supporting his weight, hollows out his back to hover over Rin, and lowers his head against the shell of his ear.
He's complicit in whatever ministration Ai has him locked up in. The shudder of breath exhaled against his ear, coupled with the second finger slipping in to join the first. Rin isn't a slut by any means, but he's familiar enough with his own body (and recently) that the task isn't exactly hard. He opens up easy for the second finger, sinking his hips to meet Ai's carefully curling fingers.
Senpai. Something about how Ai says it unfurls something in him. His nails surely leave little crescents in Ai's scalp, as he yanks him closer, already whispering against his ear. But then Ai fucking Nitori has to go and say something like that.
And Rin's mind wipes clean.
Haru was never versed in dirty talk. If he was in a foul enough mood or riled up enough, sure it would slip out easily enough. But that was more Rin's forte. And he realizes he likes being on the receiving end of it. Very much so. Rin's breath stutters, as he yanks Ai closer. He meets Ai's mouth in a bruising fashion, a whine fresh on his lips as he tries to crawl underneath his roommate's skin by any means possible.
The noises spilling into Ai's mouth are sensually slutty, desperate in every fashion as he practically mewls and pushes himself back against that hand. It's not enough. It's too fast. And he knows it, but he slips a little demand against Ai's mouth to go faster, more, something, anything.
Something to feel throughout all this deprecation and misery. Something real. Something that will leave behind something he can actually feel besides a hollow emptiness. The one that screams you don't belong. Rin sinks his teeth into Ai's lip pleadingly.
Ai wasn't even trying to be erotic - it was his honest disposition. His sincerity and what of it he felt compelled and allowed to share with Rin under this context. Knowing he has found a power to work Rin up, Ai wanted to do exactly that, in spades, and wanted to make sure Rin knew it too. Wanted to convey in some way how badly Rin was wanted - even now, even after all of this. I want to make a mess of you. I want to see you come undone. I want you to feel good.
I want you to know it was all me.
He groans feeling Rin's nails scrape at his scalp again, his vice grip spurring Ai on. He can't take it anymore either; Rin sucks him in so greedily, and is writhing like that, moaning against him like that-- it puts Ai very firmly at the end of his physical rope. He wants to be so patient, go so slow. Wants to treat Rin right - and he will - and wants to make this something worth remembering for more than just heartbreak--
It is as if his lips are trying to melt into Rin's; as if it were physically possible to sink down into him, absorb into him in one heated pile. Rin biting his lip and drawing a spec of blood was the last snap of his patience. He sucks in a harsh breath against Rin, and then leans back only enough to be able to look down at him. Finally seeks out his eyes, and in Ai's own, that ghost of something from earlier presently completely overshadowed by his arousal and determination.
He is kissing Rin sweetly, as if begging with him to just wait a little bit longer; slides his fingers out, trails his sullied hand up Rin's thigh, over his stomach. To his hip. Mutters against his lips with knit brows and a lascivious sigh, "Turn over."
He practically yanks his mouth away, as he scrabbles himself over. This is what he wants. To be treated like something to be used, face pushed down in the pillows to muffle any sullying sounds from escaping him. His tank top is all twisted and bunched up in all the wrong places, but Rin doesn't even care.
Because all Rin can hear is the static, buzzing with that tone Ai has been taking with him since this messy encounter began. It pounds in his head. As he situates himself on the futon, ass up and face buried in his arms against the pillow, Rin thinks how easy. How easy it would be to just accidentally bump a few things on his phone, record a nice voice message of Rin getting fucking railed right now and let that be his response to everyone's good luck emails?
He won't. But the thought is tempting enough. It's enough to make the blood pound in his head, and he whines a little, trying to push himself back against Ai while he pushes his face in the pillow. Desperate for something, anything. He shivers, feeling cold like this. Just waiting, clenching around nothing and desperate for his own self ridicule to resume.
"Hurry up." He hisses softly, his tone lacking any sort of bite for once. Maybe it sounds small more than anything. He just wants Ai to get off, to kick him out, to make Rin feel full and alive even if it doesn't get him off too.
What is green to one is blue to another. And what to Rin is a empty throwaway is to Ai his last chance.
Rin prostrate before him, Ai doesn't hesitate to pour generous slick over his cock, warming it over his skin with a hiss. Stroking himself close to Rin's body, his knuckles grazing the mound of Rin's ass, splayed and presented before him. It's the first time since their encounter started that Ai's confidence finally wavers; he had nothing to back this up. Uncharted territory. Only fleeting mental images supplied by unmentionables and a very active imagination, and a will that is currently shaky at best. But he has to, and not only that, he wants to.
His hand smooths over one of Rin's ass cheeks, feeling the taut yet plush skin under his palm; spreads him apart, exposes his taut entrance. Ai rocks his hips forward against him there, spreading the lubricant further over Rin's hole. So much he could say; none that actually reaches his lips. Carefully, Ai aligns himself and pushes in.
It's slow goings; an inch, and then a shallow thrust. Another inch. Half-seated and he's finally leaning over Rin, hissing through grit teeth. It's an unspeakable, tight warmth, mouth agape and rounded on a moan that remains lodged in the back of his throat. His hands migrate to Rin's body as he bottoms out; one smoothing down Rin's spine, to his lower back. The other snakes around Rin's front, pulling him up; forcing Rin's middle back to Ai's chest.
He breathes hot against the back of Rin's nape, eyebrows tangled in a furious knot. The hand across Rin's torso clings to him desperately; his palm and fingernails dig for purchase, first on Rin's shoulder, then down over his chest.
Cheek pressed against Rin's shoulder blades, Ai finds his pace; slowly, at first. Fucking into Rin with full-bodied, measured, rolling movements meant to acclimate them both. "Rin-senpai," comes a hot and desperate exhale against a knob of Rin's spine. Rin gathered against him as if Ai were willing their bodies to commit nuclear fusion as he finally snaps his hips forward. And again. And again, and again--
It's better this way. He doesn't have to look, simply put.
It's easy to gaslight yourself into another plane of existence when someone has you bent over, draped over you. It's easy enough to focalize only on that raw, carnal pleasure being built up between two bodies. Something you can only get with somebody else. He can almost trick his body into thinking it's someone else. Except he doesn't. Not really, at least.
It's easy enough to think about past experiences, draw comparisons. It's hard when the person touching you is so meticulous and indulgent in what he thinks your body wants and needs. Rin whines as Ai begins to sink into him, his hands roving Rin's body like he was searching for something to hold, something to ground them both.
Rin stubbornly refuses to fall into that trap, pushing his body back. The prep wasn't near enough with the pace they're setting. And Rin doesn't even care. It's a slew of unbridled noises spilling from his lips, intensified by the way Ai says his name like that. Like it actually means something.
That hot sting pools in the corners of his eyes. Pain and pleasure misfiring from all direction, his body contorting in a whirlwind. He doesn't know whether to sob, or scream, or moan. All he can do is push back to meet each of Ai's thrusts, that steady slap of skin echoing throughout the room.
His fingers practically tear through his borrowed sheets, the ones he's always considerately kept so clean and pristine before now. Just sullied by each drag of his beading cock against the fabric. His knees ache, his knuckles creak. Rin just wants to bite into his pillow to muffle whatever stupid noises are being punched out of him.
Instead all he can muster is some choked off whine.
Ai is familiar enough with the burn of going too fast, recognizes it in the way Rin's body hugs his cock like a vice, paired with the noises spilling from Rin's lips. As if he's trying to match a million emotions at once. He'd go slower, apologize - are you hurt? I'm so sorry! - except he knows that if he's historically been able to push past it, to indulge in it, he knows for a fact tenacious, determined, currently emotionally compromised Rin could, too.
It brushes against his instinct for only a moment, but he doesn't lose his pace; thinks to what feels good, what his body intuits. Rin's heat is addictive and the way he moans even moreso, causing lilted sighs and harder, longer groans to waft themselves over the back of Rin's neck and spine.
"Ah, god," he exhales thick again, arm flexing to keep Rin close against him; his other hand snakes away from Rin's lower back, curls under his front. Down his stomach and to Rin's cock, where Ai ruts his eyes closed and does his best to stroke Rin off at the same fast, unapologetic tempo as his hips. "Rin-senpai," he moans again, mind mostly blank other than the name of the man underneath him. He laps at Rin's shoulder; grazes his teeth against him, "Feels-- good. You feel good." Presses his cheek again as he thrusts harder, longer. Shockwaves of heat overwhelm his body, but Ai's priority is nowhere near getting himself off -it's all Rin. What's left behind when it's had its way.
He instinctively wraps his hand around Ai's fisted over his cock.
"You've-- got a fucking way with words."
He almost laughs, completely unsure if it's mocking or teasing. He doesn't know up from down at this point. There's some emptiness in the realization that this is exactly what he wanted. A quick and rough fuck into the mattress, proving he's of little good other than being a cock sleeve.
Well, everyone has their talents he supposes.
There's jolts everywhere Ai touches. His skin jumps and tremors under the hot breaths, the hips slamming against his skin. Overstimulation is already running rampant and he hasn't even come yet. Ai's cock catches against that particular spot, and he chokes against the pillow, his fingers tightening around Ai's. It's the only semblance of control he has like this, the only way to measure his worth.
Eventually, his body begins to accommodate the abysmal prepwork and hips snapping against the back of his own. He faintly tastes blood, he wonders if its from his own lip or the vicious lip locks they've partaken in. Rin's noises are unbridled, slipping out and bubbling up like he's not holding them back at all.
Things begin to blur, that familiar tension coiling in his lower gut. Rin whines, pressing his face into the pillow, effectively smothering his pitiful noises. It hurts. It feels good. His head is spinning. His body is aching. Everything is threatening to burst. Some muffled semblance of Ai's name, or maybe someone else's, is spat against the pillow as Ai continues thrusting against the spot that makes his toes curl.
If only he knew how badly, how sorely Ai wanted to kiss and touch upon him as if he were molten gold. To show him there was no fear in being vulnerable; that an exposed heart warrants reward. That love doesn't have to hurt. But Ai is a hypocrite, pinned between a duty and a fear, and is selfish, but isn't selfish enough to renege on what Rin's plainly asked of him. Isn't brave enough to do the exact thing for himself he is trying to do for Rin, winding up in a half-measure.
I feel so useless.
He can feel Rin's body surge with what Ai suspects is a pulse of white heat; he knows the feeling. Keeps his hips such that he fucks into that spot over and over, so badly wanting to grant to Rin his relief. There's sweat on Ai's brow, face buried still against Rin's neck, his back, the back of his hair - anywhere Ai can touch. Though Rin's caught his working hand in a vice, his other scours up Rin's body, migrating from his hip to his lower back. Ai presses down there, encouraging Rin's chest further down; his hips further up. Bringing their bodies just a little bit closer.
Pressure builds in his core; he's close.
"Please," he exhales lowly, hand clawing up Rin's spine and over his shoulders and into his hair; Ai tugs his scalp, just enough to try and bring Rin's head out from where he's buried it in a pillow. So badly wants to kiss whatever he can reach - Rin's jaw, his chin, anything. "Please come. I want to hear you."
Maybe there's a little pushback against his own body. Traitorously fighting off orgasm, because he thinks he for some reason doesn't deserve it. All he wants is release, but he goaded someone he claimed to be a close friend into fucking him stupid. Just because he was pissed off. What right does he have?
But Ai is pressing encouraging kisses along whatever patch of skin he can reach, angling Rin's body just so. He practically spasms underneath the new angle, fingers digging into the sheets with an unbridled sob.
Is that what Ai's doing? Turning this into some sort of competition? Making Rin come first? He digs his heels in, trying to fight it off. But he's already hit that overstimulation shoving him right over the precipice he's been toeing for so long. Touch starved and confused. And so he tumbles over.
And not quietly either.
If it weren't for the rain and thunder looming outside, Rin is sure Ai would get a noise complaint. Because he near bites through his tongue trying to keep the noise back. It still bubbles up anyways, as he comes harder than he has in god knows how long. All because of that stupid tug at his scalp. His body clenches around Ai, his fingernails dig into Ai's hand. Everything whites out, his limbs feel numb, and he doesn't even know who's name he's moaning anymore. The room spins, and everything feels so incredibly heavy as he comes down from whatever this mess is.
Ai's body was just slower to react, stamina forever being his achilles' heel - even under this context. His first time with Rin, his first time giving. If he had it his way, if the world was kind, this wouldn't have been over so soon, and maybe he'd wait for Rin to bounce back for a round two to properly tire himself out. Try lavishing more of the attention on him that Rin seems to squarely reject.
Rin's orgasm is messy and dramatic and makes Ai's breath hitch in his throat. Again, Rin calls out to someone, but Ai can't make out who and for his own sake chooses not to listen too closely anymore. Only when he's certain that Rin's completely spent does Ai pull out, slowly so as not to leave Rin's body with more aches than he likely already has. Trying to be conscientious like that, even still.
Ai's eyelids are heavy as he jacks himself off right at the mound of Rin's hips. In comparison, his peak is much less overt - his voice hitches, the fingers on Rin's hips curl, a shudder runs down his spine. He paints himself over the crevice of Rin's ass and his lower back...
And the silence that falls is, for him, deafening. Rin wanted to be fucked right out of his emotions - now what? Was it overstepping or underperforming to assume aftercare? Does he run a shower for them both - surely not? It's only now, post-orgasm and post-circumstance, that Ai realizes neither of them even got naked. No more sounds of skin slapping against skin, no more moaning from Rin, no more of his own heavy breaths - Ai is now once again acutely in-tune with the bellowing in his own chest, reverberating between his ears.
He has one thought of clarity, which is the threat of guilt if he doesn't do something. Just to be present; it felt right. Ai shifts forward just enough to kiss the back of Rin's hair, nosing him there for a lengthy moment. Trying to etch into his memory the smell and how Rin's hair feels slicked with sweat. Then he's sitting up, almost reluctantly so, hand appreciatively smoothing down Rin's spine in a slow, repetitive motion.
"Are you alright?" he asks, quiet. Suddenly making noise felt like it might make something snap. Ai sits back on his haunches; kisses Rin's tailbone, then his outer thigh. And then Ai's hands fall down to the sides of Rin's legs, as if to give Rin the room to move however he pleases. "I'll-- Let me get you a cloth." Is he running away? Hard to tell. Ai rises to his feet. Addresses Rin but again can't look him in the eye, is instead suddenly self-conscious and tucking himself back into his pants and focusing on that, "Or I can run the shower for you."
Before he can retort, Ai is pulling out of him. And Rin fucking whines, trying to claw for something through his weakened state. No no no no no. This isn't what he wants. He can feel Ai's fingers branding him, but the sound and motions of him getting himself off. Something in Rin sinks, and he wants to vomit.
He isn't even good enough for Ai to get off in.
What a fucking joke.
Rin grimaces at the feeling of come painting his skin. He grits his teeth under it, and something searing boils in him. He feels so empty and miserable now. Ai just acts like he's being burned by touching Rin somehow, touches feather light and hesitant despite being reassuring. He already can feel the tears spilling.
He refuses to look back at Ai, just tugs his tank top down as much as he can to cover the mess and give himself a little dignity. Ai sounds like he's running, so Rin is just going to run too. He shakes his head, forehead against the pillow as he tries to wobble up onto his knees. Rin hisses at the pain coursing through his thighs. Oh yeah, he knew he would be paying for that later. And whatever mindset he's neck deep in is just intensifying it.
His hand slams against the wall next to the futon, as he hoists himself up. He continues to try to keep his tank top tugged down, it barely reaching halfway down his ass. He feels so fucking miserable and empty. He just wants to shower. He can't even look at Ai now. Crying like a girl after taking it up the ass.
"Fine. Just. Gonna shower."
Go figure. No wonder Haru didn't want to be with him. No wonder Ai just wanted to paint his back. No wonder Sousuke never made any move on him, but on Ai.
Rin is still so ice cold, and Ai is just-- beside himself. Whatever he does, he apparently does it wrong. Can't console Rin well enough, can't host him well enough, can't fuck him well enough, can't care for him well enough.
He feels frozen to the wooden floor as he watches Rin struggle to his feet, eyes glassing over.
"Senpai," Ai calls, unsure exactly what he did wrong or how to fix it but now resolute that just letting Rin saunter with a tear-stained face isn't the answer; Ai pads in front of him, places a hand on Rin's shoulder, trying to still him. Maybe just slow enough to help him walk over, Ai doesn't know - he feels compelled to get Rin's attention. To try. Again. Even if every part of him internally is barely held together by string and a wish. "You have to take it easy." You look terrible. You look worse. That's my fault.
He's a slave to himself, and catches Rin's eye, glassy and so far away. It causes his own to sting, a large lump suddenly pressing against the back of his tongue and throat. As if attempting to soothe - as if he could - he shifts his hand, thumbing over one of the many lighter love bites on Rin's neck.
"You could let me help." Mouth open, agape on words he can't find. After a false start he tries again, knowing in the back of his head Rin is at best not listening and at worst priming to tell him to shut up in no uncertain way, but he has to try, "Please. I-- enjoyed it, together. I don't want it to end badly. If this is how you need to look at me now, I want you to at least say you didn't regret it."
He wants to kiss Rin. Looks at his lips. Doesn't.
"-- So let me run you a shower. Or wash your back. Something." Quieter, "Please."
It's tempting to shove Ai away, figuratively and mentally. It's not like he deserves the kindness. He wants to laugh all this off, twist this into something where he can just call Ai that colorful f word and get his ass kicked to the street. He would never. But it's self harm on the highest level for him. Rin bites his lip, jerking underneath the gentle ministrations.
"I don't--"
Need help? Want help? Regret it?
He doesn't even know what answer he is trying to formulate. All he can do is shiver against the wall, feeling Ai press those soothing touches all over his neck. Rin knows he fucked up, he shouldn't have goaded Ai into sleeping with him. Not that Ai didn't consent to it. It would be hard to take it any other way, considering how marred Rin's skin is and how aching he's feeling. But he goaded him into this, he wanted this...
Rin shakes his head. Those gentle words remind him of their year rooming together. Too much kindness for someone who doesn't deserve it. Rin swallows around nothing. He can't stand that look covering Ai's face. Like Rin just monumentally fucked all of this up. He grits his teeth.
"...fine. We can. Shower." He's choking around words, trying to formulate the right ones. "Sorry. Just. Little out of it."
Ai looks at Rin long, trying not to let his concern cross his face but Ai's never been very good at hiding what he's feeling. In most circumstances, anyway. Rin at least has acquiesced, which is something, though it is Ai's instinct to immediately try to back pedal. We don't have to if you don't want to. I don't want to get in your way. It isn't that I don't trust you to do it on your own, I just worry. In a rare and profound moment of post-coitus self-awareness, Ai realizes that overthinking is at least partially what has gotten them in this situation to begin with, and if Rin didn't want him here, in any capacity, he could very easily just tell Ai to fuck off. But he hasn't.
"I can tell," he finally intones, voice a small coo and smile on his face that is no less tired than it would have been an hour ago. But for Rin, he tries; for his own sanity, he tries. Ai's palm slides down Rin's body, to Rin's hand; squeezes it softly, a feather-light touch, before guiding Rin away from the wall he's using for balance and encouraging him to follow and rely on Ai instead.
Traitorous thing, the engine in his chest; despite it all, it throbs painfully hard against his rib cage, finding that even now, even the smallest touch gives him goosebumps. He doesn't need to delude himself into thinking it'll last, knows that whatever happens tonight is in a capsule. It is the impermanence of it, he thinks - he suspects - that enables him to be bolder than he would under any other circumstance.
He walks backward toward the shower room. Pauses for a moment to shuck off his shirt, hands it to Rin. All too little too late now, but Rin may still feel indecent; Ai wants to do whatever he can to try and get those tears to stop. Show him he has someone in his corner, no matter the costs.
"I meant it at the time too, but." He's watching where he steps so as not to bump into anything, crossing the threshold into the shower room, "It really did feel good. You did." He clears his throat a little, "Sorry I was a bit eager." Is he filling space? Yes. He usually wouldn't; he was very good at letting him and Rin coexist in peaceful silence with the demons of Rin's mind among them. For once, his anxiety is threatening to get the better of him, and his mouth runs as a nervous filter.
It would be easy enough to scoff, shove all Ai's worries to the side with more aggression or whatever unhinged mating display he just put on. But maybe that will just intensify the problem at hand. The one where Rin's skin jumps under Ai's soothing touches, guiding him off like some damsel.
His throat tightens.
All throughout life, Rin has become a master of masks. It's just that time to don another one. A softening expression, playing into the role Ai is seeking out. The one that is fine. It's easy to shrink into yourself. It's even easier still to claw so deep inside yourself and press someone else on their feelings, that it's like yours never existed to begin with.
God, he's such a shitty friend. Rin just smiles at the compliment, a soft thing. He lets Ai fill the space, as much as he needs to. Keeping eyes streaked with tears and redness focused on him as they step into the shower together. Gingerly takes the shirt, and keeps it close to his chest. A kind gesture. Too kind.
"Glad you felt good."
He skirts around that Ai said Rin felt good as more of a follow up to 'it' feeling good. Which is fine. He tries to recreate whatever teasing facade they build up together that first night, before Rin inevitably messed that up too.
"That stamina is no joke." He laughs, that forced thing slipping from his lips before he turns around, keeping the shirt clutched close like it's something grounding. It is, but Rin can't pinpoint why. Maybe it's the small act of pity, or just something to dig his fingers into so tight. It spares his palms the blood at least.
Ai can tell Rin is just forcing himself at this point, and it leaves him beside himself. He's no longer all claws and teeth, and Ai gets the sinking feeling Rin is just putting up with him - too exasperated to even be angry anymore. Was Ai really that inconsequential after all?
He's probably numbed himself out, Ai thinks acutely, leaving Rin's body only long enough to get the water going; the shower room is quite typical of a Japanese apartment, the shower head able to reach the entirety of the room but with a designated, tall bathing basin attached to one half of the space. He's fantasized about being in there with Rin, too; being held close under a stream of water, or letting it lap at their knees and chins as Ai massaged him. All such a far cry from their reality, where Rin's clinging to his shirt in the mouth of the room and forcing himself to smile through tears after a round of sex Ai knows without a shadow of a doubt was only meant to salve.
Ai tries to smile too, just to match Rin. But it's apparently harder to even do that much when Rin himself isn't up to the task. Ai could handle teeth and claws; could handle anger. Could handle being taunted, having his earnest feelings torn down. Somehow, he can't handle this. He feels the back of his eyes beginning to burn; is quick to turn his back to Rin as he peels off his pants and underwear, momentarily pressing his palms to his eyes to will them to stay before standing up again, nude and as collected as he could be.
"You make it easy to want to keep going." The pause that follows is a wide, hollow berth. A yawning chasm threatening to drag Ai down by his ankles. He wasn't the one fucked into a futon, yet his entire body feels so sore and heavy. Sapped of his will, reality of it all collecting at their feet, Ai suddenly starts, mouth faster than his brain can process trying to stop it,
"Why did you--," only then catching up. Ai already knows the answer, doesn't have to ask it. He falls back from that precipice, turning to face Rin again, though still can't look him in the eye. Ai busies himself with getting a wash rag wet with suds, trying to pivot, "-- Sorry. Come here, let me wash your back."
It's quiet between the pitter patter of water dribbling down. He doesn't look back as he hears Ai dressing down, it's not like he hasn't seen it anyways. He's felt it practically gutting him, in fact. Besides that, they were roommates, teammates. Nothing they haven't seen a thousand times over.
You make it easy to want to keep going.
Rin wants to fucking laugh that it obviously isn't if Ai had to pull out to get off. But he doesn't say it, just keeping that thin smile on his face as he stumbles through stripping off his remaining article of clothing. It takes a minute, but he tosses Ai's shirt along with it, forgotten in some unnamed corner.
Rin jolts under the question. Flinches under the backpedal, as Ai tries to encroach on his space. Why did he what? There's a thousand questions lingering on the statement, each one more terrifying than the last. Rin bites his lip, turning his head away. But not before grabbing Ai's wrist, the one with the wash cloth. His grip is firm, but not malicious. Maybe more akin to a panicked confusion, dread.
"Why did I what?"
He dares to spit it out, unable to meet Ai's gaze. Why did you do that? Because everything fucking hurts, and he wanted the noise to stop. Why did you make me fuck you? Because Rin is lonely, and misses someone. He doesn't know. He tries to keep that smile on his face, still unable to meet Ai head on. A meek gesture, a demonstration that he's not threatening right now.
Because Rin remembers the panic in Ai's eyes before he kissed him. And it makes bile curl up his throat.
He's booking a surgery appointment tomorrow to sew his damn lips shut. Maybe double book and sneak in a lobotomy in too while he's at it.
It's a damn good thing Rin isn't looking at him because in the moment that follows Rin grabbing his wrist and demanding his question, Ai's eyes grow glassy. His lips contort around the threat of a sob, trying so hard to bite it back at the still-fresh memory. To his credit, he doesn't make a sound; the only wetness on his cheeks the splashback from the shower. There and gone, a fortified wall tossed up at rapid speed so he could remain as every bit as composed as Rin hasn't been.
Because he doesn't need to know why Rin did that; he knows why. Doesn't need to know why Rin wanted Ai to fuck him; Ai knows that, too. He shakes his head because he doesn't want to open this can of worms, but if Rin is insisting it out of him, it's the most clarity he's gotten from Rin since the moment Ai smashed his mug on the floor.
Ai could never be scared of Rin. Not really. Not even after all of this. What scares him the most are consequences; it's why he flinched then, and why his voice is sapped and quiet now.
"Why did you say their names?" Sou-senpai. Ha-ruka. The mocking lilt in Rin's voice still haunts him. The unspoken implications flanking his mockery eat at Ai from the inside.

Date: 2025-07-22 01:59 am (UTC)But the way Rin works his cock, tonguing his tip and causing Ai's breath to hitch and precum to bead, it's evident his body at the very least couldn't care what circumstance they were in. Fine, he thinks absently. Stamina was never his problem anyway.
"Don't," he exhales, thick and lascivious, watching Rin's free hand disappear behind his own body, giving Ai one of the most beautiful and cruel visuals he's ever had in his life. He had been so ready to surrender to Rin for now, but not at this expense; the hand in Rin's hair tightens and yanks, very gracelessly and harshly pulling Rin off from him. Forcing his head back to look up at Ai, who looks-- resigned. Yet determined. And all too hot under the collar.
His hand remains tight at the base of Rin's skull so as to keep Rin's head pulled back, looking up at him; of course, Rin could easily overpower him if he chose, but Ai has a hunch he won't. Like this, Ai's free hand slides to Rin's lips; his thumb pads at his lower lip, presses under his top lip. Smooths over one of his canines. And then his middle and index rest on Rin's bottom lip, silently demanding the obvious.
"You're being selfish." There's a vulnerable edge to his words; he doesn't just mean Rin touching himself. He doesn't mean for it to sound that way; unfortunately, Ai was never very good at lying. Despite just having had his cock down Rin's throat, it's only now he blushes, "Do you want me to touch you or not?"
no subject
Date: 2025-07-22 02:16 am (UTC)That determined gaze smolders into him though, and Rin is temporarily dumbstruck. He stares up at Ai wide-eyed, and before he knows it there's fingers against his mouth. It's instinctual to let his jaw drop, slide his tongue across those digits. Absolutely lavishing them. His chin is already sticky and wet, but he lets some dribble pool up and over his lips. Letting his eyes hood, diligently working the fingers.
It carries on like that for a few moments, Rin acting similarly towards Ai's fingertips that he did with his dick. Maybe a little moreso now, since he can make a bit of a show out of it. His own dick is aching in his pants. He tightens his thighs together a little, just to take the edge off.
Rin yanks his mouth off of Ai's fingertips, carefully swallowing around his words. Now this can bring a little embarrassment. Because the implications of it could be taken a zillion and one different ways. Some could be accurate, others could... not so much. Rin licks his lips, leaning forward to nip at Ai's stomach, dragging his tongue against the skin immediately after.
"My bag." He pants, squeezing his eyes shut. Whether it's from shame, or just being caught like a kid with his hand in a candy jar. "There's some--"
The implication is clear, and his face burns. Which is stupid given his whole tough guy slutty act until about five milliseconds ago. But that little bottle of lube is stuffed at the bottom of his bag. It's his, just enough to take the edge off some days when his head is screaming so loud he can't shut it off. It's strawberry scented. It's absolutely not girly. It's just. Something different.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-22 02:38 am (UTC)Suddenly Rin's stopping though, and-- hesitating? It's the first time since they both meandered into the kitchen that Rin's looked-- I can't place his expression. Apprehensive? Unsure?--
"Ah." No, Ai doesn't cast judgment, because the other option was trekking half-way across the apartment to fetch his own (which was unscented and unremarkable) and Rin's just saved them both some time and awkward pause. He leans down, kisses Rin's lips once - it's too sweet, it's too intimate, and Ai's done it thoughtlessly - before shuffling just off the futon and to Rin's bag. He pauses though, looking behind him to Rin. Am I allowed to--? He just told you to!
He rummages, saying many mental apologies, and all the way at the bottom and toward the back of Rin's bag is, indeed, a vial of lubricant. Ai wastes no time in coming back to Rin, shuffling toward him on his knees; Ai's leaning over him some, encouraging Rin on his back. One hand shifting Rin's shirt up to expose his stomach and abdomen, admiring the visual feast before him, roaming over the expanse of athletic and strong muscle with an ardent devotion to his touch. Ai sucks in a breath to stay himself, then ducks down toward Rin's hemline, hooking a thumb into his pants and beginning to tug, lower. And lower still. Ai exposes Rin's cock, a hungry and awed look in his eyes, catching his bottom lip between his teeth. Tugs down further until the fabric pools below Rin's knees, leaving it up to him or not whether he kicks them off.
His hand splays open Rin's thighs, palm running under the v-line of his pelvis, over the base of his cock, momentarily kneading his sack. The other hand uncaps the vial with his thumb where Ai is holding it just beside himself--
He takes a whiff, stunned by how fragrant it is. He doesn't mean for it to hit him so hard, but considering the boring, label-less stuff he's used to...
"I thought you didn't like sweet?"
no subject
Date: 2025-07-22 03:06 am (UTC)Ai retrieves the bottle easily enough, and Rin can shove that awkwardness behind him as he is lowered against the futon. Ai is diligently exploring and roving over his body, and Rin can't help but sink his teeth into his lip. Haru always lavished him, even during the messier clashes of teeth and tongues. Rin's face burns a little, and he tosses his gaze to the side, slinging his arm over his eyes.
As if that could shut the memory out completely.
His hips arch, aiding Ai shucking his pants off. He knows he's staring, he can feel those eyes boring into him while he kicks off his pants awkwardly. He really just wants Ai to barely prep him, fuck him and get his rocks off. It's all he deserves after all, and...
"Huh?" He grimaces, dropping his arm from his eyes if only to bite at the skin of the back of his hand. It does little to stop the noise that follows, the embarrassed and whiny thing.
"...shut up." Rin bites out, covering his eyes again, bucking his hips.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-22 03:20 am (UTC)He knows Rin's mind isn't here, hasn't been the whole time. Ai isn't delusional. He'll do what Rin wants, and will allow himself the grace of at least being able to say they've slept together. It's more than he thought he'd ever get circa ~an hour ago. It still stings, of course; sits lower in his belly than his heat does, his arousal only barely keeping it from washing over him. In a way, he kind of understands why Rin is doing all of this in the first place.
He pours the lube into his palm, warms it; spreads it over his fingers. Grips Rin's dick first, just to memorize the feeling of its weight in his palm properly. Strokes him a handful of times languidly; lazily. Ai shifts up, body hovering over Rin's; his hand shifts from Rin's length to his waist, and then under his thigh, urging his legs back and his hips up.
There is a confidence in the way Ai's finger pad presses to Rin's ass, spreading liquid slick over the taut skin, unafraid to tease at him there. Fingers roving over his sensitive entrance, playing as though he'll press in, but then retreating again. Ai swallows hard; it was getting him worked up, too. He kisses Rin hard on the lips, just for a moment; then noses his head to the side to gain access to his neck, kisses down to his clavicle.
Tracing Rin's pulse point with his tongue, Ai effortlessly slides a finger in, other hand hooked under Rin's knee and pressing it back against his chest.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 03:16 am (UTC)His leg moves up, his hips bucking with another unbridled shudder. He instinctively wraps his free leg around Ai again, pulling him closer. All while his fingers dig into Ai's scalp. Because that unsung confidence is doing something to him. Something that Rin hates.
There's some eagerness for it, the way that finger presses against him so seamlessly. Rin gasps, and he bites his lip. This wasn't meant to be sexy, the way Ai embodies just acting like he knows it all. He looks at Ai from a hooded gaze, tilting his head back to give the access to his neck. He lets slip another curse in slurred english, his body sucking Ai's finger in.
"Ai--" He hisses, digging his nails into his scalp a little harder. That wet slip of tongue against his neck does wicked things to him. Fuck anyone who's ever said Ai is some meek little nobody. Maybe Rin should bring this up at some point to Sousuke. He swallows that thought down as quickly as it flares up, he thinks as he grits his teeth.
Ai is nothing to be ashamed of, sure. But Rin?
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 03:38 am (UTC)Hearing Rin moan his name makes his cock twitch, and he's huddled close enough to Rin that he can likely feel that right against his thigh. Ai had told himself not to take up more space than necessary, to give Rin the room to mentally escape, but with the syllable of his name on Rin's lips after all--
"Senpai," he exhales thick against the prominent expanse of Rin's neck, mouth open and teeth flush against his flesh as he wordlessly and without warning slides in a second finger. Expects Rin to take it; knows that he can. Keeps his palm up and his fingertips curled and splayed inside of him, prepping as much as coaxing, "It's no good. Already, I--"
Ai straightens his elbow supporting his weight, hollows out his back to hover over Rin, and lowers his head against the shell of his ear.
"-- I want to make a mess of you."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 04:10 am (UTC)He's complicit in whatever ministration Ai has him locked up in. The shudder of breath exhaled against his ear, coupled with the second finger slipping in to join the first. Rin isn't a slut by any means, but he's familiar enough with his own body (and recently) that the task isn't exactly hard. He opens up easy for the second finger, sinking his hips to meet Ai's carefully curling fingers.
Senpai. Something about how Ai says it unfurls something in him. His nails surely leave little crescents in Ai's scalp, as he yanks him closer, already whispering against his ear. But then Ai fucking Nitori has to go and say something like that.
And Rin's mind wipes clean.
Haru was never versed in dirty talk. If he was in a foul enough mood or riled up enough, sure it would slip out easily enough. But that was more Rin's forte. And he realizes he likes being on the receiving end of it. Very much so. Rin's breath stutters, as he yanks Ai closer. He meets Ai's mouth in a bruising fashion, a whine fresh on his lips as he tries to crawl underneath his roommate's skin by any means possible.
The noises spilling into Ai's mouth are sensually slutty, desperate in every fashion as he practically mewls and pushes himself back against that hand. It's not enough. It's too fast. And he knows it, but he slips a little demand against Ai's mouth to go faster, more, something, anything.
Something to feel throughout all this deprecation and misery. Something real. Something that will leave behind something he can actually feel besides a hollow emptiness. The one that screams you don't belong. Rin sinks his teeth into Ai's lip pleadingly.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 04:25 am (UTC)I want you to know it was all me.
He groans feeling Rin's nails scrape at his scalp again, his vice grip spurring Ai on. He can't take it anymore either; Rin sucks him in so greedily, and is writhing like that, moaning against him like that-- it puts Ai very firmly at the end of his physical rope. He wants to be so patient, go so slow. Wants to treat Rin right - and he will - and wants to make this something worth remembering for more than just heartbreak--
It is as if his lips are trying to melt into Rin's; as if it were physically possible to sink down into him, absorb into him in one heated pile. Rin biting his lip and drawing a spec of blood was the last snap of his patience. He sucks in a harsh breath against Rin, and then leans back only enough to be able to look down at him. Finally seeks out his eyes, and in Ai's own, that ghost of something from earlier presently completely overshadowed by his arousal and determination.
He is kissing Rin sweetly, as if begging with him to just wait a little bit longer; slides his fingers out, trails his sullied hand up Rin's thigh, over his stomach. To his hip. Mutters against his lips with knit brows and a lascivious sigh, "Turn over."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 04:39 am (UTC)He practically yanks his mouth away, as he scrabbles himself over. This is what he wants. To be treated like something to be used, face pushed down in the pillows to muffle any sullying sounds from escaping him. His tank top is all twisted and bunched up in all the wrong places, but Rin doesn't even care.
Because all Rin can hear is the static, buzzing with that tone Ai has been taking with him since this messy encounter began. It pounds in his head. As he situates himself on the futon, ass up and face buried in his arms against the pillow, Rin thinks how easy. How easy it would be to just accidentally bump a few things on his phone, record a nice voice message of Rin getting fucking railed right now and let that be his response to everyone's good luck emails?
He won't. But the thought is tempting enough. It's enough to make the blood pound in his head, and he whines a little, trying to push himself back against Ai while he pushes his face in the pillow. Desperate for something, anything. He shivers, feeling cold like this. Just waiting, clenching around nothing and desperate for his own self ridicule to resume.
"Hurry up." He hisses softly, his tone lacking any sort of bite for once. Maybe it sounds small more than anything. He just wants Ai to get off, to kick him out, to make Rin feel full and alive even if it doesn't get him off too.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 04:55 am (UTC)Rin prostrate before him, Ai doesn't hesitate to pour generous slick over his cock, warming it over his skin with a hiss. Stroking himself close to Rin's body, his knuckles grazing the mound of Rin's ass, splayed and presented before him. It's the first time since their encounter started that Ai's confidence finally wavers; he had nothing to back this up. Uncharted territory. Only fleeting mental images supplied by unmentionables and a very active imagination, and a will that is currently shaky at best. But he has to, and not only that, he wants to.
His hand smooths over one of Rin's ass cheeks, feeling the taut yet plush skin under his palm; spreads him apart, exposes his taut entrance. Ai rocks his hips forward against him there, spreading the lubricant further over Rin's hole. So much he could say; none that actually reaches his lips. Carefully, Ai aligns himself and pushes in.
It's slow goings; an inch, and then a shallow thrust. Another inch. Half-seated and he's finally leaning over Rin, hissing through grit teeth. It's an unspeakable, tight warmth, mouth agape and rounded on a moan that remains lodged in the back of his throat. His hands migrate to Rin's body as he bottoms out; one smoothing down Rin's spine, to his lower back. The other snakes around Rin's front, pulling him up; forcing Rin's middle back to Ai's chest.
He breathes hot against the back of Rin's nape, eyebrows tangled in a furious knot. The hand across Rin's torso clings to him desperately; his palm and fingernails dig for purchase, first on Rin's shoulder, then down over his chest.
Cheek pressed against Rin's shoulder blades, Ai finds his pace; slowly, at first. Fucking into Rin with full-bodied, measured, rolling movements meant to acclimate them both. "Rin-senpai," comes a hot and desperate exhale against a knob of Rin's spine. Rin gathered against him as if Ai were willing their bodies to commit nuclear fusion as he finally snaps his hips forward. And again. And again, and again--
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 05:16 am (UTC)It's easy to gaslight yourself into another plane of existence when someone has you bent over, draped over you. It's easy enough to focalize only on that raw, carnal pleasure being built up between two bodies. Something you can only get with somebody else. He can almost trick his body into thinking it's someone else. Except he doesn't. Not really, at least.
It's easy enough to think about past experiences, draw comparisons. It's hard when the person touching you is so meticulous and indulgent in what he thinks your body wants and needs. Rin whines as Ai begins to sink into him, his hands roving Rin's body like he was searching for something to hold, something to ground them both.
Rin stubbornly refuses to fall into that trap, pushing his body back. The prep wasn't near enough with the pace they're setting. And Rin doesn't even care. It's a slew of unbridled noises spilling from his lips, intensified by the way Ai says his name like that. Like it actually means something.
That hot sting pools in the corners of his eyes. Pain and pleasure misfiring from all direction, his body contorting in a whirlwind. He doesn't know whether to sob, or scream, or moan. All he can do is push back to meet each of Ai's thrusts, that steady slap of skin echoing throughout the room.
His fingers practically tear through his borrowed sheets, the ones he's always considerately kept so clean and pristine before now. Just sullied by each drag of his beading cock against the fabric. His knees ache, his knuckles creak. Rin just wants to bite into his pillow to muffle whatever stupid noises are being punched out of him.
Instead all he can muster is some choked off whine.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 05:29 am (UTC)It brushes against his instinct for only a moment, but he doesn't lose his pace; thinks to what feels good, what his body intuits. Rin's heat is addictive and the way he moans even moreso, causing lilted sighs and harder, longer groans to waft themselves over the back of Rin's neck and spine.
"Ah, god," he exhales thick again, arm flexing to keep Rin close against him; his other hand snakes away from Rin's lower back, curls under his front. Down his stomach and to Rin's cock, where Ai ruts his eyes closed and does his best to stroke Rin off at the same fast, unapologetic tempo as his hips. "Rin-senpai," he moans again, mind mostly blank other than the name of the man underneath him. He laps at Rin's shoulder; grazes his teeth against him, "Feels-- good. You feel good." Presses his cheek again as he thrusts harder, longer. Shockwaves of heat overwhelm his body, but Ai's priority is nowhere near getting himself off -it's all Rin. What's left behind when it's had its way.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 10:33 pm (UTC)"You've-- got a fucking way with words."
He almost laughs, completely unsure if it's mocking or teasing. He doesn't know up from down at this point. There's some emptiness in the realization that this is exactly what he wanted. A quick and rough fuck into the mattress, proving he's of little good other than being a cock sleeve.
Well, everyone has their talents he supposes.
There's jolts everywhere Ai touches. His skin jumps and tremors under the hot breaths, the hips slamming against his skin. Overstimulation is already running rampant and he hasn't even come yet. Ai's cock catches against that particular spot, and he chokes against the pillow, his fingers tightening around Ai's. It's the only semblance of control he has like this, the only way to measure his worth.
Eventually, his body begins to accommodate the abysmal prepwork and hips snapping against the back of his own. He faintly tastes blood, he wonders if its from his own lip or the vicious lip locks they've partaken in. Rin's noises are unbridled, slipping out and bubbling up like he's not holding them back at all.
Things begin to blur, that familiar tension coiling in his lower gut. Rin whines, pressing his face into the pillow, effectively smothering his pitiful noises. It hurts. It feels good. His head is spinning. His body is aching. Everything is threatening to burst. Some muffled semblance of Ai's name, or maybe someone else's, is spat against the pillow as Ai continues thrusting against the spot that makes his toes curl.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-23 11:21 pm (UTC)If only he knew how badly, how sorely Ai wanted to kiss and touch upon him as if he were molten gold. To show him there was no fear in being vulnerable; that an exposed heart warrants reward. That love doesn't have to hurt. But Ai is a hypocrite, pinned between a duty and a fear, and is selfish, but isn't selfish enough to renege on what Rin's plainly asked of him. Isn't brave enough to do the exact thing for himself he is trying to do for Rin, winding up in a half-measure.
I feel so useless.
He can feel Rin's body surge with what Ai suspects is a pulse of white heat; he knows the feeling. Keeps his hips such that he fucks into that spot over and over, so badly wanting to grant to Rin his relief. There's sweat on Ai's brow, face buried still against Rin's neck, his back, the back of his hair - anywhere Ai can touch. Though Rin's caught his working hand in a vice, his other scours up Rin's body, migrating from his hip to his lower back. Ai presses down there, encouraging Rin's chest further down; his hips further up. Bringing their bodies just a little bit closer.
Pressure builds in his core; he's close.
"Please," he exhales lowly, hand clawing up Rin's spine and over his shoulders and into his hair; Ai tugs his scalp, just enough to try and bring Rin's head out from where he's buried it in a pillow. So badly wants to kiss whatever he can reach - Rin's jaw, his chin, anything. "Please come. I want to hear you."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 12:38 am (UTC)But Ai is pressing encouraging kisses along whatever patch of skin he can reach, angling Rin's body just so. He practically spasms underneath the new angle, fingers digging into the sheets with an unbridled sob.
Is that what Ai's doing? Turning this into some sort of competition? Making Rin come first? He digs his heels in, trying to fight it off. But he's already hit that overstimulation shoving him right over the precipice he's been toeing for so long. Touch starved and confused. And so he tumbles over.
And not quietly either.
If it weren't for the rain and thunder looming outside, Rin is sure Ai would get a noise complaint. Because he near bites through his tongue trying to keep the noise back. It still bubbles up anyways, as he comes harder than he has in god knows how long. All because of that stupid tug at his scalp. His body clenches around Ai, his fingernails dig into Ai's hand. Everything whites out, his limbs feel numb, and he doesn't even know who's name he's moaning anymore. The room spins, and everything feels so incredibly heavy as he comes down from whatever this mess is.

Date: 2025-07-24 12:59 am (UTC)Rin's orgasm is messy and dramatic and makes Ai's breath hitch in his throat. Again, Rin calls out to someone, but Ai can't make out who and for his own sake chooses not to listen too closely anymore. Only when he's certain that Rin's completely spent does Ai pull out, slowly so as not to leave Rin's body with more aches than he likely already has. Trying to be conscientious like that, even still.
Ai's eyelids are heavy as he jacks himself off right at the mound of Rin's hips. In comparison, his peak is much less overt - his voice hitches, the fingers on Rin's hips curl, a shudder runs down his spine. He paints himself over the crevice of Rin's ass and his lower back...
And the silence that falls is, for him, deafening. Rin wanted to be fucked right out of his emotions - now what? Was it overstepping or underperforming to assume aftercare? Does he run a shower for them both - surely not? It's only now, post-orgasm and post-circumstance, that Ai realizes neither of them even got naked. No more sounds of skin slapping against skin, no more moaning from Rin, no more of his own heavy breaths - Ai is now once again acutely in-tune with the bellowing in his own chest, reverberating between his ears.
He has one thought of clarity, which is the threat of guilt if he doesn't do something. Just to be present; it felt right. Ai shifts forward just enough to kiss the back of Rin's hair, nosing him there for a lengthy moment. Trying to etch into his memory the smell and how Rin's hair feels slicked with sweat. Then he's sitting up, almost reluctantly so, hand appreciatively smoothing down Rin's spine in a slow, repetitive motion.
"Are you alright?" he asks, quiet. Suddenly making noise felt like it might make something snap. Ai sits back on his haunches; kisses Rin's tailbone, then his outer thigh. And then Ai's hands fall down to the sides of Rin's legs, as if to give Rin the room to move however he pleases. "I'll-- Let me get you a cloth." Is he running away? Hard to tell. Ai rises to his feet. Addresses Rin but again can't look him in the eye, is instead suddenly self-conscious and tucking himself back into his pants and focusing on that, "Or I can run the shower for you."

Date: 2025-07-24 01:14 am (UTC)He isn't even good enough for Ai to get off in.
What a fucking joke.
Rin grimaces at the feeling of come painting his skin. He grits his teeth under it, and something searing boils in him. He feels so empty and miserable now. Ai just acts like he's being burned by touching Rin somehow, touches feather light and hesitant despite being reassuring. He already can feel the tears spilling.
He refuses to look back at Ai, just tugs his tank top down as much as he can to cover the mess and give himself a little dignity. Ai sounds like he's running, so Rin is just going to run too. He shakes his head, forehead against the pillow as he tries to wobble up onto his knees. Rin hisses at the pain coursing through his thighs. Oh yeah, he knew he would be paying for that later. And whatever mindset he's neck deep in is just intensifying it.
His hand slams against the wall next to the futon, as he hoists himself up. He continues to try to keep his tank top tugged down, it barely reaching halfway down his ass. He feels so fucking miserable and empty. He just wants to shower. He can't even look at Ai now. Crying like a girl after taking it up the ass.
"Fine. Just. Gonna shower."
Go figure. No wonder Haru didn't want to be with him. No wonder Ai just wanted to paint his back. No wonder Sousuke never made any move on him, but on Ai.

Date: 2025-07-24 01:35 am (UTC)He feels frozen to the wooden floor as he watches Rin struggle to his feet, eyes glassing over.
"Senpai," Ai calls, unsure exactly what he did wrong or how to fix it but now resolute that just letting Rin saunter with a tear-stained face isn't the answer; Ai pads in front of him, places a hand on Rin's shoulder, trying to still him. Maybe just slow enough to help him walk over, Ai doesn't know - he feels compelled to get Rin's attention. To try. Again. Even if every part of him internally is barely held together by string and a wish. "You have to take it easy." You look terrible. You look worse. That's my fault.
He's a slave to himself, and catches Rin's eye, glassy and so far away. It causes his own to sting, a large lump suddenly pressing against the back of his tongue and throat. As if attempting to soothe - as if he could - he shifts his hand, thumbing over one of the many lighter love bites on Rin's neck.
"You could let me help." Mouth open, agape on words he can't find. After a false start he tries again, knowing in the back of his head Rin is at best not listening and at worst priming to tell him to shut up in no uncertain way, but he has to try, "Please. I-- enjoyed it, together. I don't want it to end badly. If this is how you need to look at me now, I want you to at least say you didn't regret it."
He wants to kiss Rin. Looks at his lips. Doesn't.
"-- So let me run you a shower. Or wash your back. Something." Quieter, "Please."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 03:58 am (UTC)"I don't--"
Need help? Want help? Regret it?
He doesn't even know what answer he is trying to formulate. All he can do is shiver against the wall, feeling Ai press those soothing touches all over his neck. Rin knows he fucked up, he shouldn't have goaded Ai into sleeping with him. Not that Ai didn't consent to it. It would be hard to take it any other way, considering how marred Rin's skin is and how aching he's feeling. But he goaded him into this, he wanted this...
Rin shakes his head. Those gentle words remind him of their year rooming together. Too much kindness for someone who doesn't deserve it. Rin swallows around nothing. He can't stand that look covering Ai's face. Like Rin just monumentally fucked all of this up. He grits his teeth.
"...fine. We can. Shower." He's choking around words, trying to formulate the right ones. "Sorry. Just. Little out of it."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 04:31 am (UTC)"I can tell," he finally intones, voice a small coo and smile on his face that is no less tired than it would have been an hour ago. But for Rin, he tries; for his own sanity, he tries. Ai's palm slides down Rin's body, to Rin's hand; squeezes it softly, a feather-light touch, before guiding Rin away from the wall he's using for balance and encouraging him to follow and rely on Ai instead.
Traitorous thing, the engine in his chest; despite it all, it throbs painfully hard against his rib cage, finding that even now, even the smallest touch gives him goosebumps. He doesn't need to delude himself into thinking it'll last, knows that whatever happens tonight is in a capsule. It is the impermanence of it, he thinks - he suspects - that enables him to be bolder than he would under any other circumstance.
He walks backward toward the shower room. Pauses for a moment to shuck off his shirt, hands it to Rin. All too little too late now, but Rin may still feel indecent; Ai wants to do whatever he can to try and get those tears to stop. Show him he has someone in his corner, no matter the costs.
"I meant it at the time too, but." He's watching where he steps so as not to bump into anything, crossing the threshold into the shower room, "It really did feel good. You did." He clears his throat a little, "Sorry I was a bit eager." Is he filling space? Yes. He usually wouldn't; he was very good at letting him and Rin coexist in peaceful silence with the demons of Rin's mind among them. For once, his anxiety is threatening to get the better of him, and his mouth runs as a nervous filter.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 08:54 pm (UTC)His throat tightens.
All throughout life, Rin has become a master of masks. It's just that time to don another one. A softening expression, playing into the role Ai is seeking out. The one that is fine. It's easy to shrink into yourself. It's even easier still to claw so deep inside yourself and press someone else on their feelings, that it's like yours never existed to begin with.
God, he's such a shitty friend. Rin just smiles at the compliment, a soft thing. He lets Ai fill the space, as much as he needs to. Keeping eyes streaked with tears and redness focused on him as they step into the shower together. Gingerly takes the shirt, and keeps it close to his chest. A kind gesture. Too kind.
"Glad you felt good."
He skirts around that Ai said Rin felt good as more of a follow up to 'it' feeling good. Which is fine. He tries to recreate whatever teasing facade they build up together that first night, before Rin inevitably messed that up too.
"That stamina is no joke." He laughs, that forced thing slipping from his lips before he turns around, keeping the shirt clutched close like it's something grounding. It is, but Rin can't pinpoint why. Maybe it's the small act of pity, or just something to dig his fingers into so tight. It spares his palms the blood at least.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 09:31 pm (UTC)He's probably numbed himself out, Ai thinks acutely, leaving Rin's body only long enough to get the water going; the shower room is quite typical of a Japanese apartment, the shower head able to reach the entirety of the room but with a designated, tall bathing basin attached to one half of the space. He's fantasized about being in there with Rin, too; being held close under a stream of water, or letting it lap at their knees and chins as Ai massaged him. All such a far cry from their reality, where Rin's clinging to his shirt in the mouth of the room and forcing himself to smile through tears after a round of sex Ai knows without a shadow of a doubt was only meant to salve.
Ai tries to smile too, just to match Rin. But it's apparently harder to even do that much when Rin himself isn't up to the task. Ai could handle teeth and claws; could handle anger. Could handle being taunted, having his earnest feelings torn down. Somehow, he can't handle this. He feels the back of his eyes beginning to burn; is quick to turn his back to Rin as he peels off his pants and underwear, momentarily pressing his palms to his eyes to will them to stay before standing up again, nude and as collected as he could be.
"You make it easy to want to keep going." The pause that follows is a wide, hollow berth. A yawning chasm threatening to drag Ai down by his ankles. He wasn't the one fucked into a futon, yet his entire body feels so sore and heavy. Sapped of his will, reality of it all collecting at their feet, Ai suddenly starts, mouth faster than his brain can process trying to stop it,
"Why did you--," only then catching up. Ai already knows the answer, doesn't have to ask it. He falls back from that precipice, turning to face Rin again, though still can't look him in the eye. Ai busies himself with getting a wash rag wet with suds, trying to pivot, "-- Sorry. Come here, let me wash your back."
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 09:47 pm (UTC)You make it easy to want to keep going.
Rin wants to fucking laugh that it obviously isn't if Ai had to pull out to get off. But he doesn't say it, just keeping that thin smile on his face as he stumbles through stripping off his remaining article of clothing. It takes a minute, but he tosses Ai's shirt along with it, forgotten in some unnamed corner.
Rin jolts under the question. Flinches under the backpedal, as Ai tries to encroach on his space. Why did he what? There's a thousand questions lingering on the statement, each one more terrifying than the last. Rin bites his lip, turning his head away. But not before grabbing Ai's wrist, the one with the wash cloth. His grip is firm, but not malicious. Maybe more akin to a panicked confusion, dread.
"Why did I what?"
He dares to spit it out, unable to meet Ai's gaze. Why did you do that? Because everything fucking hurts, and he wanted the noise to stop. Why did you make me fuck you? Because Rin is lonely, and misses someone. He doesn't know. He tries to keep that smile on his face, still unable to meet Ai head on. A meek gesture, a demonstration that he's not threatening right now.
Because Rin remembers the panic in Ai's eyes before he kissed him. And it makes bile curl up his throat.
no subject
Date: 2025-07-24 09:59 pm (UTC)It's a damn good thing Rin isn't looking at him because in the moment that follows Rin grabbing his wrist and demanding his question, Ai's eyes grow glassy. His lips contort around the threat of a sob, trying so hard to bite it back at the still-fresh memory. To his credit, he doesn't make a sound; the only wetness on his cheeks the splashback from the shower. There and gone, a fortified wall tossed up at rapid speed so he could remain as every bit as composed as Rin hasn't been.
Because he doesn't need to know why Rin did that; he knows why. Doesn't need to know why Rin wanted Ai to fuck him; Ai knows that, too. He shakes his head because he doesn't want to open this can of worms, but if Rin is insisting it out of him, it's the most clarity he's gotten from Rin since the moment Ai smashed his mug on the floor.
Ai could never be scared of Rin. Not really. Not even after all of this. What scares him the most are consequences; it's why he flinched then, and why his voice is sapped and quiet now.
"Why did you say their names?" Sou-senpai. Ha-ruka. The mocking lilt in Rin's voice still haunts him. The unspoken implications flanking his mockery eat at Ai from the inside.
