things you said too quietly

“i’ve made my peace with it.”

it’s not something akira would expect out of ryuji - the eloquence, that is.  the sentiment was there, it always is, but he says it like it’s been on his mind for a long time.  ryuji takes akira to the spot where he would train for track, like he always does.  just past sunset, when the air was cool and forgiving, where the pair of them could slip back into the darkness of the night - the shadows that they had grown used to.

“i know it’s never going to be the same.”

again, like he’s thought about this for weeks, months.  akira can only guess at what ryuji is hinting at - the track team, ryuji’s own prospects later in life.  unfurling all of ryuji’s sordid history has akira at a loss.  he can only close the gap in between them, ignoring the way ryuji is casting his gaze aside, and holds him tightly.

“do you have to be so corny?”  quietly.
