Giyuu stepped closer to Sanemi, maintaining eye contact. "Is that a challenge, Sanemi?" The tension between them shifted slightly, becoming more competitive than hostile. Sanemi's eyes narrowed, a competitive smirk forming on his lips. "You know what? Fine. Challenge accepted. Let's see who can make this more convincing."
Shinobu watched the exchange with amusement, sensing the change in their dynamic. Giyuu smirk widened, a rare playful glint in his usually stoic eyes. "You're on. But don't get too comfortable. I might surprise you." He reached out and grabbed Sanemi's hand, intertwining their fingers. Sanemi's breath hitched slightly at the unexpected contact, but he didn't pull away. "Damn it, Giyuu. You're going to make this difficult, aren't you?"
*He muttered, trying to hide how affected he was by the gesture.
Giyuu squeezed Sanemi's hand lightly, leaning in closer.
"That's the point. I wouldn't be a good fake boyfriend if it was easy." Shinobu couldn't contain her laughter anymore. "Oh my god, this is going to be so entertaining. I can't wait to see how this plays out." Sanemi growled softly, his face now completely red as he struggled to maintain his tough exterior.
"Shut up, Shinobu. We're doing this for the video, remember?"
He glanced at Giyuu, their faces now uncomfortably close. Giyuu's eyes flickered with something mischievous as he looked at Shinobu. "You might want to get your camera ready. This is just the beginning." Shinobu nodded eagerly, already recording them with her phone. "Oh, I'm ready. The world needs to see this transformation." Sanemi wave her of. "Let's go. I don't want to see that insect anymore."
Sanemi tugged on Giyuu's hand, trying to lead him away from Shinobu's prying eyes. Giyuu allowed himself to be pulled along, their hands still connected as they walked. "Where are we going, Sanemi? You're acting like we're actually on a date now." He teased, enjoying how flustered Sanemi was getting. Sanemi shot him a glare, but it lacked its usual intensity. He pushed Giyuu into their room, closing the door behind him.
"Shut up. I just don't want to be stuck here with her. And we need to figure out how to make this convincing." He looked around, trying to think of a public place they could go to. "Well... she didn't know we are already dating but she is blackmailing us to date... It's really really complicated." Sanemi stopped walking, his eyes widening in realization.
"Wait... you're right. We don't need to pretend to be dating. We actually are." He let out a frustrated sigh, rubbing his temples with his free hand. "This is even more messed up than I thought. How did we end up in this situation?" Giyuu chuckled softly, leaning against a nearby wall.
"Maybe we should just tell her the truth. Or let her figure it out on her own. It's not like we can keep hiding it forever." He looked at Sanemi with a mix of amusement and affection. Sanemi shook his head, a conflicted expression on his face. "No way. If she knows we're already dating, she'll use that against us even more. We have to keep up the act." He moved closer to Giyuu, their shoulders touching now.
"And besides... I kind of like seeing you act like this." Giyuu raised an eyebrow, a playful smile playing on his lips. "Oh? You like it when I'm playful? Maybe I should do it more often then." He leaned in, his voice dropping to a whisper.
"Just for you, Sanemi." Sanemi's heart skipped a beat at the intimate tone, his grip on Giyuu's hand tightening.
"You're really pushing it now, Giyuu. I might start to think you actually enjoy being my boyfriend." He teased back, trying to mask the growing attraction he felt. "That is why I confessed first." Sanemi's breath hitched again, his mind racing back to that moment. "Yeah... you did. And I still can't believe you had the guts to do it."
He looked at Giyuu with a mix of admiration and affection, the memory of their confession flooding his thoughts. Giyuu reached up with his free hand and gently brushed a strand of hair from Sanemi's face. "I've always been brave when it comes to you, Sanemi. Even if I don't show it most of the time." The atmosphere between them grew more intimate, their surroundings fading away as they focused solely on each other. Sanemi leaned into Giyuu's touch, his usual tough exterior melting away.
"You're such a sap. But I guess that's why I fell for you." He admitted quietly, his voice soft and sincere. Giyuu smiled warmly, his thumb caressing Sanemi's cheek. "And you're the grumpy one who secretly loves it when I'm sappy." He pulled Sanemi closer, their bodies now pressed together in a gentle embrace. Sanemi wrapped his arms around Giyuu's waist, burying his face in his neck.
"Shut up and let me enjoy this moment without your teasing." He mumbled against Giyuu's skin, his voice muffled but affectionate. Giyuu chuckled softly, wrapping his arms around Sanemi's neck and holding him close.
"Never. You know I love teasing you, even if you pretend to hate it."
He tilted his head to give Sanemi better access, enjoying the closeness of their embrace. Sanemi sighed contentedly, breathing in Giyuu's scent. "I don't hate it... I just hate how it makes me feel all mushy inside." He admitted begrudgingly, nuzzling against Giyuu's neck.
Giyuu chuckled again, his fingers playing with Sanemi's hair."You're so cute when you're being honest. Maybe I should tease you more often." He teased playfully, knowing exactly how to get under Sanemi's skin. Sanemi suddenly pulled back, giving Giyuu a warning look.
"That's it. You're asking for trouble now, Tomioka." His eyes flashed with a mix of irritation and desire as he pinned Giyuu against the wall. Sanemi growled lowly, his hands gripping Giyuu's hips firmly. "I'm going to make you regret being so damn flirty." He leaned in, his lips hovering dangerously close to Giyuu's ear. Okay
