Work Text:
The cupboards were bare. Again. Scanning the convenience store shelves full of things they couldn’t afford made Shuu want to sigh, but what could he do? It was a usual occurrence, when the gigs weren’t bringing enough people in and Rom’s paycheck couldn’t quite fill the gap until the end of the month.
“What can we afford?”
Rom checked his wallet. “Ramen. Maybe we can even stretch to the fancy ramen just this once, if you… Wait. We’re out of something else.”
“Something more important than ramen?”
Rom grinned sheepishly. “Condoms.”
Oh. Yes, they were rather important. It was a shame, the thought of stretching their meagre budget to something that didn’t just consist of noodles and soup was quite exciting, even if it was only a few scrappy freeze-dried vegetables and tofu, but he was hardly going to give up on sex with Rom for a few days. Then again…
“Do we really need them?”
“What, you’re not in the mood?”
Shuu leaned over and gave Rom a quick kiss on the cheek. “Silly question. No, I mean, do we still need condoms?”
He was aware of an older couple giving them a look as they passed by them. Perhaps the convenience store aisle wasn’t the best place for this conversation, but he carried on anyway. “Think about it, how long have we been together now? I haven’t been with anyone else, and I’m sure you haven’t. Unless there’s something you’d like to tell me?”
Rom stroked Shuu’s cheek, the touch sending a sudden thrill down Shuu’s spine. “There’s only you.”
“So let’s save a little money. Leave the condoms and get the fancy ramen.”
“You’re the boss!”
Two extra large packs of ramen were quickly thrown in the basket, and nothing else.
***
The sad thing was, once he had it, Shuu barely tasted the ramen. He was too worked up, body already tensed and ready for what he and Rom would be doing once they finished eating. Maybe it was silly of him – how many times had they slept together now? But the idea of there being no barriers, of Rom coming directly inside him, well… The meal couldn’t be over fast enough.
They left the dishes where they sat. Clearing up was the last thing on Shuu’s mind as he pulled Rom into an embrace and dragged him towards the futon. He was doing a poor job of hiding his excitement too, tail flicking wildly from side to side.
Rom seemed amused by his behaviour, at least. “You’d think we’ve never had sex before.”
“Yes, but… This is different. Don’t you think?”
“Yeah, I get what you mean.” There was a heat to Rom’s voice that made Shuu’s skin tingle.
It didn’t take them long to get ready – it hadn’t exactly been a secret what they’d be doing straight after dinner, so all it took was a quick removal of their clothes and the supplies were already to hand. Shuu was more impatient than usual as Rom slicked his fingers up and started to prepare him. He kept sneaking glances at Rom’s cock, already standing hard and ready, and no thin layer of latex to prevent Shuu from admiring it in all of its glory. To Rom’s surprise, Shuu practically grabbed the lube out of his hands and started smearing it all over Rom’s cock, wanting to feel it in his hands – not to mention get it inside him even sooner. Not that Rom minded, he merely grinned and carried on fingering Rom as they prepared each other.
“Ready?”
Shuu was a little reluctant to let go of Rom’s cock, but it would be worth it. He sucked in a breath in anticipation. “Do it.”
He lay back and spread his legs wide as Rom started to push inside. The stretch as he adjusted to Rom’s size was familiar, but Shuu wrapped his arms around Rom’s neck anyway, holding on tight and preventing Rom from pulling out too far. He wanted to feel it, to savour the sensation of Rom’s bare cock inside him, while his pulse pounded and waves of pleasure rolled over him. He’d always appreciated Rom’s cock – how could he not? – but now there was an extra level to the experience.
“You like it that much, huh?”
Shuu nodded, barely able to form words.
“You feel pretty damn amazing yourself.”
The bed creaked as Rom shifted around as much as he could manage within Shuu’s grip to give Shuu a sharp nip to the shell of his ear. It was enough to make Shuu gasp and let go, allowing Rom to finally start moving inside him. It seemed like Rom knew exactly what Shuu wanted, taking it slow and dragging out each thrust, making sure Shuu could really appreciate the full length and thickness of his cock. Or maybe that was just what Rom wanted as well – to experience the naked heat of Shuu’s body, making it last as long as he could.
They moaned and grunted together, hands scrabbling against skin and sheets, or pulling at each other’s hair. When Rom finally came, not long after Shuu himself, it almost came as a surprise to Shuu – the sudden wet sensation as he was filled with come. A little strange, but Shuu wouldn’t say he disliked it.
The cool air of the room felt good against Shuu’s skin as Rom rolled off him. Shuu knew he needed to go clean up, still covered in sweat, and come and, saliva, but he wanted to leave the traces of Rom having been inside him just a little longer. In fact, he was almost on the verge of dozing off when Rom gently nudged him on the shoulder.
“So… Think we’ll still get the good ramen in future?”
Shuu smiled. “Yes, I think so.”
