    Summary

    "Is... something wrong?"

    Touya seems mildly apologetic, for his part. Guilt's one of his easier emotions to read.

    Akito scratches at his neck, mouth pulled into a frown. "There's no way you can go on stage looking like that."

    Summary

    Toya stopped directly in front of him. The music swelled, the world around them seemed to fade away, and all that existed was the Prince and the knight, separated by duty, united by…something Akito couldn't define.

    "Akito," Toya said, his voice soft, barely audible above the music. It was the first time he had addressed him outside of official duties tonight. He extended his hand, palm up, towards Akito.

    Akito stared at the hand, the long, elegant fingers, the subtle curve of the palm. It was a hand that commanded armies, signed treaties, and held the fate of the kingdom. And it was being offered to him.

    He couldn't speak. He could only stare, his mind reeling, his heart hammering against his ribs like a caged bird.

    Toya’s smile widened, a hint of playfulness in his eyes. "Are you going to leave me standing here all night, Akito?"

    Akito swallowed hard, forcing himself to find his voice. "Your Highness…I…I don't understand."

    "I believe the music has made it quite clear," Toya said, his voice laced with gentle amusement. "The waltz has begun. And I would like to dance, Akito."

    Summary

    Without a doubt, Toya's room is the coldest place in the house.

    It's cold. So, so cold.

    But Toya learns that there is warmth to be found in things that aren't just room heaters.

    Summary

    Toya slams a hand down on the barrier, sending bits of sand flying. “Akito this is a big deal. Even if you pretend it isn’t. You were purposely avoiding me ever since you left and be honest and tell me the only reason we are even talking now is because I had to search half the city to find you. I was scared Akito.”

    “You really went through all that trouble for me?” Akito started to quiet down, and Toya immediately knew what was going through his partner’s head.

    “It wasn’t any trouble Akito, and I’d do it again. What I’m more upset about is you not talking to me. Remember last time when I wasn’t honest with you about how I was feeling and I almost left BAD DOGS?”

    Akito flexed his fist. “Yeah…”

    “So please.” Toya took Akito’s hand. “Talk to me. I don’t want unspoken words putting a strain on our friendship again. We can sort out everything ok. I don’t want anything hanging over us.”

    Akito looked up to Toya one more time, then gave his hand a little squeeze.

    “Ok, but I need you to start.”

    ------

    After a confrontation with Toya's dad, the two boys need to sort out what happened that evening, and reconcile their friendship, and potentially have it blossom into something more.
