Work Text:
“There, Nagi! Cabins!” Reo shouts. The whirling blizzard forces him to yell at the top of his lungs to be adequately heard. He and Nagi feel strain on their bodies as they resist the wind, hand-in-hand, making it down the steep hill heading towards refuge. Their exposed faces are freezing from the harsh elements, and they can barely see through the violent snow. Despite the struggle, they finally reach the oak cabins visible in the alabaster landscape. Reo pries open one of the wooden entrances. Once inside, he and Nagi use their full weight to resist the wind, forcing the door closed. Finally successful, both of them fall to the ground, out of breath.
“Are you okay, Nagi?” Reo huffs. Even though he’s out of breath, his first priority is the boy next to him.
“I’m cold,” Nagi groans. Reo can hear the exhaustion in Nagi’s voice, but also Nagi’s typical whininess. He can't help but reach one of his gloved hands up to Nagi’s head and give it a pat.
“I’m cold too, but that’s good. If we felt numb, that would be frostbite,” Reo smiles. “But that doesn’t mean we can’t still get it. We might not feel the wind in this cabin, but it’s freezing here.”
Nagi and Reo are currently at the Mikage corporation's newest business venture, the Mikage Winter Wonderland, a year-round resort for ice skating, snowboarding, skiing, sledding, snow tubing– basically any winter activity one can imagine. The resort is supposed to be a technological marvel and is located inside a huge dome where weather can be controlled within its confines. Reo originally dragged Nagi along to test the resort a few months ahead of it being released to the public to enjoy their day off snow tubing.
However, from what Reo can tell, a malfunction in the engineering caused a blizzard. Out of nowhere, the wind started whirling, snow started falling, and temperatures started dropping. Once Reo noticed this, they immediately began heading to the exit, only for the weather to pick up more or more, forcing them to find refuge before they could leave the dome. Had they not found a cabin, they may have died from hypothermia or have been buried alive in the snow. As danger looms in Reo’s mind, he hears his phone ring. Retrieving his phone from his inner pocket, he sees Baaya's name and takes off his glove to answer.
“Master Reo, are you and Seishiro-sama okay?” Baaya asks urgently from the other side of the phone.
“Yes, we’re fine!” Reo reassures in a cheery voice, wanting to ease the fear of his guardian. “Nagi and I made it to a cabin.”
“Good,” Baaya sighs in relief. She clears her throat and returns to her usual professional demeanor. “As you can tell, there was a mechanical malfunction with the weather machine. We’re sending a rescue team your way while the engineers try to turn it off.”
Baaya’s words set alarm bells off in Reo’s mind. “Wait! But won’t it be dangerous to rescue us? The storm seemed to only be getting stronger as Nagi and I came here. Tell the engineers to keep working on shutting down the machine. We’re fine for now.”
“But–”
“I’ll keep you updated on how we're doing,” Reo says assuredly. “If we need to be rescued, we can decide on that later, but I have faith in our engineers. They can figure it out.”
Baaya wants to object, but she uneasily says, “...Yes, master. I will inform the team.”
“Great.” Reo smiles, happy to have gotten his way. “Talk to you later, Baaya.”
“Stay safe, young master.”
“I will!” He promises, hanging up his phone.
While he could demand a rescue team, he’d rather not be in a scandal where he allows one of his workers to die of frostbite to rescue him. No good boss would put his life above his workers. He also hopes his engineers feel empowered by his faith in them. Letting your workers know you trust them is an important part of being a leader. Reo believes they’ll end the storm and get them out of here.
While they work on the outside, Reo must focus on caring for him and Nagi inside. Reo begins by surveying the small space they are in, which is pretty easy to appraise. It seems the builders did not finish setting up this cabin, as there are a bunch of brown boxes filling the room. The only furniture that has been fully set up so far is the sleeping area in the corner, which has a bed with a plush comforter and pillows on top. There’s also a fireplace near the center of the room, which has a bundle of wood and fire starters next to it. Ok, I can work with this, Reo thinks.
“Nagi, we need to take off all of our wet clothes,” Reo instructs. He removes his heavy jacket and begins to remove his boots and pants as well.
“Huh? But it’s freezing.” Nagi says, hugging his own shivering body, not obeying Reo’s orders.
“You can get hypothermia if you keep them on,” Reo urges. “I’ll help you.” Though Nagi is hesitant to take his clothes off himself, he lets Reo take both his gloves off his hands, followed by his coat, his hoodie, his long-sleeved shirt, his shoes, his socks, and his two layers of pants.
“Note to self: worry more about waterproofing and insulation than fashion when winter clothes shopping,” Reo sighs. In the end, Nagi is standing in only a t-shirt and boxers, and Reo, finishing stripping himself, is standing only in a tank top and briefs.
Reo then heads over to the fire and sets up some logs with a firestarter on top. Once the fire is lit, Nagi happily sits in front of it, getting as close as possible to the flame without touching it. While he does that, Reo drags the mattress off the bed frame with its pillows and blankets still on top next to the fire.
“Nagi, get under the blanket,” Reo instructs. Nagi does so, promptly cocooning himself in the fabric. With Nagi away from the fire, Reo is able to put their wet clothes in front of it in hopes they dry off. More layers would be nice in this cold.
As he finishes, he hears Nagi groan, “Reo, I’m still freezing.”
“Let me under the blanket so we can share body heat. That’ll help,” Reo suggests.
Nagi listens, letting Reo under and clinging to him like a koala instantly. “You lied. It’s still cold.”
“It’ll take a while for our shared body heat to build up,” Reo chuckles. He adjusts himself so he is facing the fire, with Nagi behind him.
At this point, Nagi and Reo's brains are both in survival mode. They aren't thinking I'm in my underwear getting spooned/spooning by my best friend, they are thinking I just want to feel some lasting warmth. The combination of their body heat, blanket trapping in warmth, and fire blaring in front of them soon warms them both up. Reo’s backside is thoroughly warmed by Nagi's body heat and his front side by the fire. The feeling of coziness begins to set in when Nagi begins shifting awkwardly.
"Reo… my back is getting cold. Can we switch?" He asks.
“Of course, Nagi,” Naturally, Reo can never deny his treasure. He switches from little spoon to big spoon, warming Nagi's back and facing the fire.
Reo presses his body against Nagi's, making sure to leave no gaps. However, as he lays there with his arms around Nagi, he begins to feel strange. As if the warmth had rebooted his brain, Reo is now able to process the situation he is in.
This situation is a bit lewd, right? Reo thinks. He wants to bash his head against a wall in humiliation. He shouldn't have thoughts like this! Obviously, they’re cuddling half-naked for survival, and that's the only reason Nagi is doing it. Still... it felt good when Nagi was holding me before... and Nagi's body is so warm now... and Nagi looked so good stripped down earlier… his abs really have become so defined… his workouts have definitely been working… Reo mindlessly slips his hand under Nagi’s t-shirt and caresses Nagi’s stomach at the thought, causing the boy in front of him to let out a small groan.
What am I doing? Copping a feel? Reo mentally berates himself, quickly retreating his hand to his chest. Why am I thinking these thoughts now of all times? He tries to subtly make a small gap between him and Nagi's lower halves while trying to think about stocks tanking and losing money to get his mind off of anything remotely sexual or boner-inducing. Unfortunately, Nagi notices his retreat.
“Reo, why are you backing up? It’s too cold,” Nagi whines, backing up against Reo's body.
“Sorry, I was just adjusting myself,” Reo says uneasily. His response must have been enough for Nagi, though, who hums in response.
Reo lays there on edge, stiff as a board, until Nagi falls asleep. Finally, he is able to carefully peel himself away from Nagi . The feeling of relief rushes over him when he is finally free. He checks his and Nagi's clothes near the fireplace, but unfortunately, they are still damp. More layers would make the situation less awkward. Reo sighs, adding a log to the fire.
He calls Baaya again to update her on their situation.
“Hello, young master. Is everything okay?” She asks with a hint of nervousness in her voice.
Reo almost wants to ask for a rescue team to be sent now to avoid further awkwardness but decides against it. “We’re doing fine. We started a fire to warm ourselves, and there is a blanket and bed in the cabin. We took off our clothes and are letting them dry by the fire, just like you taught me during my survival training.”
Baaya lets out a pleased chuckle. “Well done. On our end, progress on fixing the weather machine is being made, but it will still be several hours until you are rescued.”
“Ok, we’ll be safe until then. Message me any more updates.”
“Of course, Master Reo.” Baaya hangs up, and Reo sighs heavily. While he will still be safe for a couple more hours, he doesn’t know if he will still be sane with his half-naked crush pressed against him. Still, that’s something he doesn’t have to worry about at the moment, so he shakes off the thought.
While he still has some lasting warmth, he looks for any food or drinks in the cabin. He sees some trail mix, paper towels, and water bottles in the cabinet, likely left by the construction crew to eat while renovating. He takes them back to their base at the edge of the mattress for them to eat. Moving around in the cabin has made him cold once more, and he wants nothing more than to cuddle Nagi under the covers again. Still, he shouldn't take that risk. Instead, he kneels in front of the fire and eats some trail mix. trying to sap any warmth he can without having to go back to Nagi.
“Reeeeeoooooo,” a tired voice whines behind him. The rustling of the trail mix bag must have woken Nagi up. “Come back under the covers. It’s cold without you.”
Reo wants to deny him, but he can't think of a good reason. “Okay, but my back is cold from moving around. I want to be in the front again,” He settles on saying. At least this way, he can't get hard against Nagi.
Nagi nods, lifting up the blanket and wrapping Reo in his arms. He groans at first at Reo’s cool skin before mumbling about it being "so cozy” a couple of moments later. Reo feels relief at Nagi's body heat. Unable to control himself, Reo takes delight in the situation and lets himself fantasize away while being held. Nagi's arm muscles are nice and toned, holding me... and the way he groans... and there are no gaps between our bodies…
His pleasant fantasies are interrupted when he feels Nagi shifting away once more, just like he did before asking Reo to big-spoon him. It's only been a minute, though! And I’m hard! There’s no way I can switch . Reo defiantly moves back against Nagi, causing Nagi to jerk back, which further causes the blanket to rustle and let in cold air.
"Nagi! Stop moving! I was just calling Baaya, checking on the fire and our clothes, and looking for food! I'm cold!" Reo snaps. Typically, he is not the type to complain, but he really, really cannot switch positions now.
“Sorry,” Nagi mumbles. He places his hand on Reo's waist and lies behind him. keeping a couple of inches between their bodies. This isn't what Reo wants, though. He wants to be held. He grabs Nagi's arm and suddenly tugs it around him full force, making Nagi's body flush with his. After doing this, he feels what can be nothing other than Nagi's erection brush up against his ass.
Reo freezes in shock. Nagi tries to scurry away, but Reo keeps an iron grip on his arm, refusing to let him retreat. "Nagi," he says sternly.
Hearing this, Nagi starts to stutter out an apology, “Reo, I’m sorry. I–”
"I told you to stop moving, didn't I? It's cold." The words spill out of his mouth before he can think properly.
With Reo's command, Nagi stops trying to get away. They lay there in silence, with only the sound of their soft breaths, the crackling fire, and the whirling wind outside able to be heard. Nagi buries his head against Reo's neck, hiding his embarrassed expression from the world as his erection gets shamefully bigger the longer it presses against Reo.
After a few minutes of awkward silence, Reo turns around to face Nagi. The sudden shift makes Nagi want to retreat away, but Reo told him to stop moving, and he does not want to upset Reo any further. Instead, he looks at Reo with nervous, wide eyes, wondering if now is the correct time to apologize.
Just as he's about to do so, Reo asks, "Do you need help with this?" Reo carefully presses his thigh against Nagi’s erection, drawing a moan from Nagi.
Nagi nods, too nervous to speak, though he makes plenty of needy noises at Reo's touch. Emboldened by Nagi’s pleasured pants, Reo rubs Nagi’s erection over his underwear.
“What a naughty boy,” Reo whispers, being so daring as to slip his hand under Nagi's waistband, taking Nagi’s erection in his hand. Reo has never done anything like this before, but he doesn’t think it will be too different from touching himself. He begins slowly jerking Nagi off, his moves gaining more confidence the more precum oozes from Nagi’s cock, and the more moans fall from his mouth. As he does this, he becomes more and more aroused to the point where he can no longer control himself. Seeking some relief, he begins to rub his erection against Nagi's thigh, feeling as if there is no need to hide it.
Feeling Reo pressed up against him, Nagi finishes quickly, dirtying Reo’s hand with his cum. As he lies there catching his breath, he says, “You’re hard, too.”
In response to this, Reo remains silent, not really sure how to respond. Instead, he focuses on cleaning cum off his hand with one of the paper towels he found.
“Am I-uh… supposed to help?” Nagi asks.
While Nagi likely just said this due to being inexperienced, Reo takes it as reluctance to want to touch him back. “There’s nothing you’re supposed to do,” Reo huffs. “Do whatever you want.”
“Hmmm… My hands are still pretty worn out from gripping the snow tube handles all day. I think they’re too tired to give a handjob.”
Reo rolls his eyes at this. God, why did I give him a handjob in the first place? Reo thinks. “Fine. You don’t have to do anything then,” he grumbles.
Reo is about to grumpily roll back over towards the fire when Nagi asks, “Can I give you a blowjob instead?”
“A w-what? Are you being for real?” Reo stutters, eyes going wide from the suggestion.
Sure enough, Nagi’s face looks as serious as ever.
“Nagi, you don’t have to do that!”
“You told me to do whatever I wanted. I want to make you feel good,” Nagi says simply. “Is that not okay?”
Hearing Nagi say those words has Reo flustered. “Well, if you want to do it, I guess it’s okay then,” Reo says bashfully, trying to sound like his heart is not about to leap from his chest.
While they already broke the sexual barrier between them, Nagi pressed his boner against Reo accidentally, and Reo jerked off Nagi on sheer horny instinct. Every move they make now feels more intentional and thought out, making it all the more awkward. They soundlessly get into position, Reo laying flat on his back and Nagi retreating beneath the blanket. Nagi quickly pulls down Reo’s briefs, not wasting any time with teasing. Reo feels Nagi’s hot breath against his dick. Nagi’s mouth is excruciatingly close but not yet pleasuring him.
While they never discussed it, Reo is certain Nagi is also a virgin. While Nagi did offer to give him a blowjob, Reo imagines it still must be frightening to actually give one for the first time, even for someone as laidback as Nagi. Hell, Reo doesn’t know where the burst of confidence he got to jerk Nagi off came from. Reo reaches his hand under the blanket to stroke Nagi's hair affectionately.
It’s okay, I’m here, He tries to communicate these words he is too embarrassed to say through touch.
He feels Nagi eagerly lean into the comforting touch, which almost feels like Nagi saying back I know.
Then, he feels his dick being licked experimentally a couple of times before being completely engulfed into Nagi's warm mouth. Reo yelps with shock. He wasn’t expecting Nagi to be able to do this. The sudden pleasure Reo feels is too great. He grips Nagi's hair tightly, and he begins thrusting himself into Nagi's mouth.
Both the sensations and wet sounds of Nagi sucking his dick are delicious to Reo. The greedy heir desires even more, wanting to know what Nagi Nagi looks like now. He lifts up the blanket and puts his own head under it, allowing him to see his treasured partner. The rush of cold air from the blanket lifting causes Nagi to look at Reo. His face is sweaty from the heat trapped within the blanket. Tears are coming from the corner of his eyes. His hair is messier than it has ever been. His expression is one of pure pleasure as if he is the one getting a blow job. Reo has never seen a face so sexy.
“You’re really good at this. You like sucking my dick, Nagi?” Reo asks, though Nagi obviously cannot answer. Reo is so close to finishing, and can’t help but praise him. “You’re such a good boy for me.”
The praise causes Nagi to moan around his dick. The vibrations cause Reo to throw back his head in ecstasy, back arching as he finishes down Nagi's throat.
Reo lays there recovering, chest up and down as he catches his breath. Nagi slides up next to him, licking his lips as he nuzzles into Reo's side.
The sight of Nagi causes Reo to spring up to a sitting position, suddenly hyper-aware of everything they just did. This alarms Nagi, causing him to sit up as well.
An alarmed Reo grabs Nagi’s face between his hands. “Are you okay? Did I hurt you? How’s your throat? Do you not have a gag reflex? Does your hair hurt? Was I gripping too hard? Did I go too far?” He bombards Nagi with questions in a frenzy, worried he harmed his precious treasure.
“I’m fine, Reo. You don’t need to worry,” Nagi says with a slightly hoarse voice. “I liked it.”
“That’s good,” Reo sighs. He doesn’t know what he would do if he hurt Nagi. He grabs a bottle of water next to him, opens it, and hands it to Nagi. “Drink this, treasure. You probably expended a lot of energy.” As Nagi sips, Reo takes a handful of trail mix to feed Nagi. While he did enjoy their intimacy, Reo is very grateful for his partner's lack of talkativeness, blissfully focusing on the simple task of feeding Nagi piece after piece.
After a few minutes of being fed, Nagi whines, “I’m getting cold.” He moves under the covers, looking up at Reo with a needy expression. “Keep me warm, please?” He asks.
“Of course,” Reo smiles. Reo lay down facing Nagi, intertwining their legs and arms. As he tucks in the corners of the blanket to trap in the most heat possible, Reo brushes against Nagi's erection once more. He’s hard again?
Would it be weird to suggest another round? Did they just have sex because of the weird survival situation they are in? Probably not, right? It’s not like they had to have sex or die. Also, Reo can't imagine anyone would give a blowjob platonically. Nagi is a weird guy, though, which makes Reo still have some doubts.
As Reo's mind goes back and forth, strongly considering asking the question, "What are we?" he looks up at Nagi, confronted with the face of his treasure sound asleep. Reo lets out a big sigh. As he is wondering what they did means, his partner could not be less bothered.
Still, Reo can't fault Nagi completely. The day is starting to catch up to him as well. He, too, begins to drift off, falling asleep in the arms of his lover.
They only wake up once they hear the ringing of the phone a couple of hours later. Reo answers, nuzzling against Nagi’s chest as he groggily confirms everything Baaya says. Reo’s brain is a little fuzzy from tiredness, but he remembers being told that they fixed the weather machine and a rescue party is being sent their way to escort them out. Reo reluctantly gets out of bed, deciding he doesn’t want his rescuers to see him and Nagi half naked together. Reo inspects their clothes and sees they are luckily dry. They must have been asleep for a couple of hours. He dresses him and Nagi and hears a knock at the door just as he finishes.
Their escorts bring them outside, where the snow no longer falls, and the wind no longer blares. In fact, the dome now has a warm breeze, and the snow is beginning to melt. As they head towards the exit, Reo feels uncertainty about what transpired between them, with the question of what their relationship is exactly still in his mind. By leaving this dome, will they also be leaving their shared desire for each other behind? Reo doesn’t know the answer to that question, and he is certainly too afraid to ask.
Luckily, he doesn’t have too much time to ruminate as they reach the exit and see a tall figure with a grin greeting them.
“Welcome back, young master,” Baaya says. “I’m glad to see you’re well.”
“As promised!” Reo grins confidently. “Thank you for managing everything outside while Nagi and I were stuck!”
“It was no bother,” Baaya smiles. “I’ll go pull up the car. I’ll message you once I am out front.”
“Thank you,” Reo says. Baaya and the rescue team both head off, bidding Reo farewell. Just as Reo finishes thanking the escorts for their work and waving them goodbye, he feels the boy next to him tug on his sleeve and give a needy look.
“Reo…”
“Yeah, treasure?” Reo smiles.
“Will I be going somewhere with you after this?” Nagi asks with a hopeful look.
“Of course. Baaya is probably planning on taking us straight to one of our Mikage family doctors to inspect us for any ill effects of the weather,” Reo explains. “We should be fine, but it’s good to be safe.”
“No, I mean… uh…” Nagi tries to think carefully about his words. “I want to have a warm bath at your place afterward.”
“Sure! I wouldn’t make you warm up in your sparse spaceship of a home!” Reo smiles. “The bathtub at my place is way nicer than the Hakuho dorms.”
“No, I mean-um…” Even though Nagi is typically the stoic type, his cheeks go slightly pink. He pulls Reo close and whispers in his ear, “I want to be alone and touch each other more… this time in a situation where we’re not freezing.”
“O-oh! That’s what you mean!” Reo says, face flushing scarlet. “In that case…” Reo takes out his phone and texts Baaya something.
Nagi gives Reo a sideways look, unsure of what his actions mean. “Uh, what did you text Baaya?”
“I told her to have the doctor meet us at my house for a speedy check-up so I can take you up on your offer as soon as possible.” Reo looks around to make sure no one is looking before placing a small peck on Nagi’s lips.
Before Nagi has a chance to respond, they both hear Baaya honk the horn of Reo’s limo.
“Are you ready to go, Nagi?” Reo outstretches his hand towards his treasure.
Nagi takes Reo’s hand in his. “Let’s go, Reo.”
