Sorry. Our friendship's important to me, so I didn't want to risk losing that.

[But, now that it's out in the open, now that John's smiling and not about to drop Shuji like a hot potato, he can be a little more honest. Starting with:]

Did you know that you're really cute?

[vitis]

Ohh, whatever.

[ hUffs... he'd like to remind him that this is a rarity, friend(?????? all right, they'll have to figure that one out, too), cherish it. but after a little shake of his head, he's getting back to beaming again and moving closer to shuji now (not that he'd ever stepped very far). ]

[ he leans forward a little bit, probably just shy of another kiss. ... then pulling away again and just. appreciating shuji's everything. ]

Still gonna be mad at you a bit 'bout that. [ but not really, judging by his stupid grin. ] But yeah, yeah, I get'cha.

[thesettingsun]

Would it make you any less mad at me if I kissed you again?

[And if it wouldn't, such as if John isn't really mad, can he kiss John anyway?]

[vitis]

[ ... probably, lbr. ]

[ there's an agreeable exhale of laughter, but- ]

[ but john will better answer that himself. one of his hands lifts to gently tip shuji's jaw upwards, his arm falling about his waist. then he's pretty quck in leaning forward to press his mouth against shuji's. -- if only he could stop smiling dumbly, ah. ]

[ looks like someone's been a little eager to kiss shuji, okay. ]

[thesettingsun]

[They're both smiling dumbly, it's okay. And Shuji's just as eager to return the kiss, setting his hands on John's shoulders and leaning into him.

He really, really wishes he had done this earlier. But they can make up for lost time.]
