Sleeping in the closet

[ever_somnolence]

Lace was a quiet boy, he never said much in class and only spoke when spoken too. Even then he didn't say much. This was never a bother to him. A lack of friends was of no concern to Lace, his strange beauty and mysterious nature drew plenty of attention from other students. Which could be bothersome, but he found ways to avoid it. He went into the Gym storage room to eat lunch, one day however, he fell asleep. He fell into such a deep sleep that he slept through class and until the end of volley ball practice. He managed to hide from the sight of the club members, though not on purpose until someone came in and saw him.

"Can I talk to him next time when he calls you and I'll be around?" Lev asked innocently as he hugged him close. "Do you want something to eat? It's getting late..."

Not that they had to do anything today, though.

[ever_somnolence]

Lace nodded his head, that would be nice. They were both so high energy that they would surely get along well. That would be nice, if all three of them could be friends.

"Yes..." He moved to get up to cook Lev some breakfast. A nice hearty breakfast for a nice hearty boyfriend.

[acecat]

Lev followed him to the kitchen and helped him with preparing the breakfast for the two of them, "Does he often call you? He must be lonely, I guess...are you planning to go back?"

[ever_somnolence]

"I'm....going back....after I graduate...." He replied as he started mixing the eggs and boiling the rice for breakfast. He turned his head back, "What's....your plan....?"

[acecat]

"Isn't it obvious? I'm going to be the ace! Then someone will scout me and I'll be a professional volleyball player!" Lev laughed, really confident about his plan.

"So...you'll be away in one year, huh? I'll miss you a lot..."

[ever_somnolence]

Lace continued cooking them breakfast as he thought about what they would do with out each other. Would Lev get over him and find another? Was long distance really a relationship killer? The thought worried him, they would only be together for two and a half years at this rate.

[acecat]

"Are you planning to go back to Robin then?" He asked like it wasn't a big deal; he even laughed softly like he wanted to show Lace that he wouldn't mind even that.

He would, though.

[ever_somnolence]

"Do...you plan....on breaking up....?" Lace asked, giving him a very hurt look. Was this not what he thought it was...? If that was what Lev wanted.... then he would respect his desire.

[acecat]

"Me? I might be dumb but not THAT dumb..." Lev knitted his eyebrows when he glanced over at Lace. "I won't break up with you even in a million years!! But if you want to be together with him, then just tell me. No need to lie or anything...not like I would find out, I'll be here and you'll be there so there's no way I would find out..."

He didn't notice it at first but big tears started rolling down his cheeks when he talked. He didn't want Lace to go back, he wanted him to stay.

[ever_somnolence]

Lace looked rather surprised by Lev's tears, Lace had no intention of cheating on him. He reached out to quietly wipe away his tears before nuzzling him. He didn't know why Lev was trying to encourage him to cheat. Why would he leave Lev? "I......won't....cheat on you...."

[acecat]

"Sorry, I'm just...I don't even know what I am saying," He murmured, wiping the tears with his shirt's sleeve. "I had no idea that you're planning to go back, I'm a bit surprised, maybe that's why I keep blabbering like this...and tears, I haven't cried in ages, what is even going on..."

[ever_somnolence]

Lace stroked his hair a little, "I'm....joining....the army...." Lace murmured, he had to go back when school was over to join the military. He was going to be a sharpshooter for them so he had to go back no matter what.

"But....that's...two years away..."

[acecat]

"The army? You?" He didn't mean to be rude, but the thought that Lace would put himself in danger was too much. His tears started to flow again. "Is...is there any way to...how can I make you stay here!!"

He cried out, clenching his fists so much that his knuckles became white.

[ever_somnolence]

Lace sighed softly and embraced him, he never thought about how his actions would affect others. "If....we stay together for the next....two years without....breaking up...." He murmured, "I'll...stay..." That way he knew for sure that Lev was serious enough for him to give up everything to stay with.

[acecat]

"But I've just told you that I wouldn't ever break up with you...!" Lev sobbed softly and wrapped his arms around Lace, trying to calm himself down. "But...it's fine. It's fine if you want to test me..."

[ever_somnolence]

"As the....years pass....things....can change..." He murmured as he rested his head on his shoulder. He nuzzled him affectionately, he never thought that Robin would break up with him yet he did now. He pressed a gentle kiss to his head to comfort them.

[acecat]

Lev shook his head, "I won't...!"

It might have been childish, but he didn't care. Lace was important to him and he wouldn't leave him no matter what. After a few minutes passed, he let go of him and smiled softly.

"Any plans for today? I'd like to play volleyball if it stops raining!"

[ever_somnolence]

Lace fixed them breakfast and moved to set the table for them. After he set up their portions, he took a seat at the table. "I...was planning...on spending time....with my boyfriend..." Also known as Lev.

"Maybe....try to...have sex..." He added as he ate his food. This kind of weather was perfect weather for sex and cuddles.

[acecat]

Lev was chewing when Lace shared his ideas with him and at first didn't even realize what he meant, even though he heard the words very well, "Ah, sex...sure, why not..."

He looked behind the window and as he swallowed the food it finally became clear to him, "A-Are you sure?! I mean, I'm pretty sure that I'll ace it just as I ace everything but...?!"

[ever_somnolence]

Lace looked rather flustered by Lev's response. Did he not want to...? "Sex....is about intimacy....and love..." He tried to comfort him a little, not wanting to make Lev feel like sex was a scary thing.

He patted his head softly before speaking again, "You don't...need to....worry...."

[acecat]

"Sorry...I just haven't really considered it before? And you promise me that if I do a bad you won't run away to England?" That was an exaggeration but at the same time Lev was legitimately scared that Lace might do it.

[ever_somnolence]

"First...times are never perfect... It's not about talent in your first time.... It's about loving your partner...." He murmured softly as he moved to nuzzle him affectionately. Lev should worry more about Lace's rather strong sex drive.

[acecat]

"Oh..." Lev gasped and stroked Lace's hair, grinning to himself. It was clear that the other's words put him at ease, "I'm sure that I'm the best in the whole world at loving you! I'm Lace's ace after all!"

[ever_somnolence]

Lace smiled softly and nuzzled into him. "You are...." He loved Lev dearly, even before they decided to be a couple. Lev was easy to fall in love with. He was so happy and affectionate.

"I love you...."

[acecat]

Lev hugged him and kissed the top of his head as he chuckled, "I love you too! And...and I really...want to...you know..." He murmured, stroking his back slowly.

"Try...having sex..."
