You Belong to Me
by JoY
"Have you packed everything?"
"Um."
"All your documents?"
"Um."
"The address to the apartment?
"Um."
"Your heart?"
"……."
Rukawa stopped his packing. Hanamichi walked up behind him and pulled in back against his broad chest, and buried his face in the soft silky hair, breathing in deeply the fragrance of the shampoo that Rukawa favoured. It smelled like autumn, of maple leaves in their red glory, like Rukawa. Tightening his embrace, Hanamichi just held on to his love. Tomorrow, tomorrow he will be leaving for America. To pursue a childhood dream, to fly high in the hometown of basketball.
Rukawa just closed his eyes and leaned backed against Hanamichi, within the embrace of those strong arms. How many times had he been held like this, like he was the most important person in the world? Hanamichi was not a glib lover nor was he the most romantic but whatever he did and said, Rukawa knew that he meant it and that made it all the more true and cherished. And his embrace always spoke of such love and now, also of longing, for when he left.
Taking the initiative, Rukawa turned around within the folds of his arms and completed the embrace, wrapping his arm around the strong neck. Looking up at those chiselled featured that he had come to know so well, Rukawa tried to express what Hanamichi meant to him , how much he loved him.
"Kaede…."
Slowly sliding his hands up the slender form, Hanamichi slight one hand into the thick silky strands and the other to one smooth ivory cheek, tracing the beautiful, finely boned features of his love. The high cheekbones, long fine brows, thick curled and long lashes like a veil over enchanting, soulful dark gems, that sparkle with the emotions of their owner.
Without thinking Hanamichi moved the final short distance between them and touch those lips, marvelling once again at their softness. Placing feather light kisses on the soft lips, he pulled Rukawa closer and started to kiss him more deeply, coaxing those lips beneath his open with little nibble to the lower lip. Rukawa relaxed against the broad chest supporting him and melted into the kiss, accepting and welcoming Hanamichi into his hot mouth, returning the hot caresses of the Hanamichi's tongue with his own.
Rukawa stifled a groan as the kiss deepened further, their mouths molding together as if they had been lovers for centuries, breath mingling and carrying so much promises. Hanamichi's heated kisses, which are just bordering on possessive, had always left him weak kneed and breathless. Pulling back, Rukawa inhaled deeply, taking in much needed air. All the while Hanamichi 's fiery eyes had been riveted on those kiss swollen lips.
Giving himself a slight shake , Hanamichi took in the state Rukawa was in, the pale face slightly flushed by their passion . He was inordinately pleased that he had such an impact on Rukawa.
"Dance with me?"
"Hmm?"
Still slightly dazed Rukawa was not sure if he had heard correctly. They had only danced together once, at the school prom, surprising everyone there. And that had been the first time he had danced.
"Share another dance with me?" Hanamichi asked gently.
Reaching over to turn on the stereo, a soft melody soon filled the room.
See the pyramids along the Niles,
Watch the sun rise in the tropic isle
Just remember darling all the while
You belong to me
See the marketplace in old
Algiers,
Send me photographs and souvenirs,
Just remember when a dream appears,
You belong to me
I'll be so lonesome without you
Maybe you will be lonesome too
And blue
Fly the ocean in a silvered plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember till you're home again
You belong to me
Maybe you'll be lonesome too
And blue
Fly the ocean in a silvered plane
See the jungle when it's wet with rain
Just remember 'til you're home again
You belong to me
Rukawa just closed his eyes and leaned his head against Hanamichi's chest, letting him slowly moved them to the haunting melody. He could feel his eyes getting wet, and quickly brushed away the moisture on Hanamichi's shirt. Aware of the gesture, Hanamichi just tighten his embrace, pulling Rukawa closer.
The Next Day
Rukawa boarded the plane to the farewell and well wishes of the old teammates. Ayoko who had always regarded Rukawa as a little brother was busy repeating the instructions on how to take care of himself and to call or write back often.
Rukawa just nodded distractedly, searching for a particular redhead. Hanamichi had already left the house when he woke up this morning. When he still did not turn up at the last call for boarding of his plane, Rukawa looked down disappointed. Ayoko , one of the few people who knew him well enough just placed a hand on his arm in silent comfort. Rukawa gave a small smile before turning to board the flight that will take him to America, the land of dreams.
"Kaede!"
Rukawa turn back quickly at to see Hanamichi pulling along a small suitcase.
Stopping in front of Rukawa, Hanamichi looked into those confused and slightly hopeful his eyes.
"You belong to me and I am not letting you go." Hanamichi gestured at his own suitcase.
Rukawa (in a move that surprised even himself) flung himself into Hanamichi's arms and kissed him in front of everyone, in the middle of the airport.
End
Author's words: I am a hopeless romantic. Just hope my words can convey my thoughts. For your information: The song You Belong To me is taken from the sondtrack of Ally Mcbeal. There are still many songs in the CD that I like and think are suitable for HanaRu fic. I will be writing when the HanaRu muse visits again. Till then, ciao!!!!!
P.S: comments , anybody????
