Be my Valentine

[toobigtohandle]

WHO: Ooshima Kenta, Hirata Jirou, Fai Lachance
WHERE: Jirou and Kenta's apartment for thread 1, a hotel penthouse for thread 2
WHEN: Valentine's Day
WHAT: Kenta is finally throwing caution to the wind and proposing to Jirou, with Fai's help.
WARNINGS: It's going to be disgustingly cute. Also there will be talk of sexy underwear.



It had taken time for Kenta to come to this decision, but once it was made, he was not backing down. Since he couldn't tell his father right now, and done the next best thing and told Tanaka-san, who had just shaken his head and smiled.

He'd been glad to have Fai's help for the ring shopping, and he'd enlisted his friend's help to choose an outfit for Jirou for the day. Of course, he'd told Jirou to save the date.

Then he'd gone and booked the Presidential Suite of Recolle's most luxurious hotels, and had made sure a whole lot of different styles of sake would be delivered there on the day. He'd also prepared a few suitcases that a bodyguard would take there in the morning.

Now all that was left was actually doing it, but Kenta wasn't feeling nervous about it. It all made so much sense that he now wondered why he'd ever told Fai he didn't see why he should do it.

Getting Ready

[toobigtohandle]

[A bodyguard isthere to open the door for Fai when he gets there the day before the date. Kenta is on his laptop in the living-room working on something, and he looks up to greet Fai and nod towards where the bedrooms are.]

He has started raiding his closet.

[sakeplz]

[By raiding what that means is that there's sounds of chaos in the other room. Someone is probably tossing clothes around...everywhere in excitement for this date.

Enough so that Kenti comes bouncing out with a garter belt on his head.

...Oops?]

[flowrite]

[By now Fai knows most of the bodyguards by first name. I mean, he's spent enough time over here, honestly. And since he and Sakura have been making chocolates for their boys for Valentine's day--and since Fai probably won't make it back here tomorrow for the real thing (he has this feeling that Jirou and Kenta might be busy, call it a hunch)--he's brought a few little cellophane-wrapped packages of chocolates to give to Kenta's bodyguards.

He's also brought larger packages for Jirou and Kenta, which he brings over to where Kenta is sitting. And uses that as an excuse to kiss Kenta on the cheek.

--and then pauses for a second, upon catching sight of Kenti, before bursting into laughter.]

Even Kenti's getting into the spirit of the holiday!

[toobigtohandle]

[Kenta looks at the bags with curiosity even as he accepts the gift for himself.]

Who are those for?

[And then when Fai laughs, he finally notices the dog and starts laughing too. Immediately, he goes to scoop him up and disentangle him from the lingerie.]

Just wait, in two seconds he's going to come out and complain he doesn't have anything to wear and you need to go shopping with him.

[sakeplz]

Is that FaiFai?

[They can hear him calling from the other room. His head pokes out and then he comes over to drape himself all over his friend.]

FaiFaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaai! Nothing I have works with Kenta's suit! I have to get a new dress!

[Kenta knows Jirou so well.]

[flowrite]

They're for you and Jirou, silly! Oh, the little ones! They're for the boys. They work hard to keep you safe, they deserve chocolates too!

[Fai's head perks up at the sound of Jirou's voice again, and by the time the taller man makes it over to him he's grinning and gladly wraps his arms around him.]

Ah, tragedy! The only cure for which is shopping~

[sakeplz]

[Honestly Jirou probably has SO MANY clothes that work but this is Jirou and shopping is the only cure. So he flits over to Kenta after hearing they're going shopping.]

Love yooooou! We'll be...

[Is that his garter belt?]

How did that get out here?

[toobigtohandle]

Kenti was wearing it coming out of your closet. It's less fetching on him than you.

[Kenta gives a peck to Jirou.]

Go. Have fun.

[flowrite]

I don't know, it was pretty cute on his head like that!

[But then again, even though he's a cat person, Fai's pretty sure he'd think anything Kenti does is adorable.

He holds the crook of one arm out in offering to Jirou.]

Shall we? Do you need to grab anything first? Besides your handsome boyfriend~?

[sakeplz]

Well I always want to grab him!

[He giggles and grabs his bag which has everything he needs in it. And he grabs his sake jug. Because he just loves carrying that around.]

Ready! Dress shopping time!

[Jirou's already on his way out the door.]

[flowrite]

[Because what would dress shopping be without sake, right? At least in the kind of shops Jirou tends to frequent, the shop owners don't even seem to notice. It's an amazing world Jirou lives in.

Fai smiles and waves back to Kenta, and then they're out the door.]

You're alright with taking Pinky?

[Jirou's usually up for riding in the pink Prius, but Fai just has to ask. Because sometimes being chauffeured around is fun too, and they're not too far out the door to stop and ask for a driver if his friend would prefer.]

[sakeplz]

Pinky! Pinky!

[Jirou obviously loves that car. Sure he can't drive himself but he damn well adores Fai's car so very much. Of course he wants to go in a ride for that.

Okay that and being chauffeured around is nothing new for him since he's had that his entire life. It doesn't have the same novelty as Fai's car does.]

[flowrite]

[Fai's smile widens into a grin at that answer. See, this is why they're bffs.

Once they're both in the car and securely buckled in, Fai starts the engine and lets it warm up a bit, adjusting the heat since they're still in the middle of winter. At least it hasn't gone completely cold since he was only in the condo for a few minutes to fetch Jirou.]

Okay, where to first?

Valentine's Day [Closed to Jirou]

[toobigtohandle]

[There is a white limo waiting for them at the entrance of the building.

Originally, Kenta had planned to go to the hotel first and have one of his bodyguards drive Jirou there, but it seems Retrospec has once more thrown a wrench in his plans, so they'll be going together.

In the end, it doesn't change much except they'll see each other's outfits beforehand.]

[sakeplz]

[Though they're bound together the string binding them when they're not glued to each other allows them to get dressed easily. It just slips right through cloth.

Which means Jirou easily gets to be in his stunning white dress to match Kenta's attire. Walking with Kenta, he rests his head on his shoulder, smiling happily. This date is so nice. He doesn't know what inspired it but any date that means they get to dress up and go out is amazing to him.

And he might have something extra special under the dress for Kenta to play with too.

Anyway, in the limo, he leans over to kiss his cheek.]

This is so nice already. The best Valentine's ever. And we haven't even gotten there yet!

[toobigtohandle]

[They both loo stunning and when they get into the car and again when they get out of it at the hotel, they are turning every head.]

I'm glad you like it. I want to day to be special for you.

[Kenta doesn't normally do things like that for holidays, mostly because he forgets about their existence very easily. But when he does, he goes all out.

The hotel check-in has already been taken care of, so that they are immediately ushered into a private elevator when they get there.

In the suite, there's sparkling sake already poured, and the table is set for a candle-lit dinner.]

[sakeplz]

[Everything is so beautiful. Oh he knows he should expect nothing less of Kenta but it's still all so wonderful to behold. Jirou has to try to take everything in at once as they step into the suite.

And of course he sees the sake as they sit down.]

Ooooh! You got the sparkling kind!

[Excuse him while he goes to have a sip of that right now.]

[toobigtohandle]

There's champagne too, but I figured you'd like that better.

[It's even lightly Sakura-flavored, and Kenta gives time for Jirou to enjoy it, taking a glass for himself as well as waiters start coming in to bring the meal itself.

He's made sure the box with the ring is hidden in the room somewhere safe so he doesn't get betrayed by a weird bump in his pocket, too. Fai would be proud. And Fai might be the first person Jirou tells about this, only to be told he was in on it... that makes Kenta smile a little. He doesn't normally hide anything at all from Jirou, but this is to make him happy so its worth it.]

Shall we have dinner?

[He stands up and offers his hand to Jirou so he can escort him to the table.]

[sakeplz]

Yes please!

[Of course he's happy to be escorted and be treated like the lady he totally is. Thrilled beyond measure by this Valentine's Day date. He has another sip of his sake before he beams at his boyfriend.]

What are we having?

[toobigtohandle]

I think there's marinated Kobe beef on the menu, and some seafood as an appetizer. And cake.

[So maybe he was a bit less involved in the choice of food, but the food isn't the main star of this evening.

He pulls Jirou's chair for him and helps him sit down before taking his own place. which is by his side and not facing him because new circumstances would make this a bit difficult, again, but that doesn't matter.

The ballet of waiters start, bringing dishes and pouring the alcohol. Kenta gave strict instructions that Jirou's glass should never be empty.]

Itadakimasu.

[sakeplz]

[He doesn't mind that the dinner isn't as involved. He's thrilled with this much and he takes his first bite with a happy sigh. Of course the seafood is delicious and pairs so well with his never ending glass of sakura sake.]

We should see if FaiFai wants to do a date here sometime. It could be our treat to him and his boy.

[He offers Kenta a bite. Simply because feeding him is fun.]

[toobigtohandle]

[They've always done that when they eat together, share their food. It comes to them as naturally as breathing. So Kenta also gives Jirou a bite, and then a peck on the lips.]

Jirou, you know I love Fai but tonight is just for me and you.

[Although that would definitely be a gift to give Fai after having him help with this. Still Kenta is not normally very possessive, but at times it happens. Like tonight. The night where he wants Jirou to be truly his forever.]

[sakeplz]

You're sexy when you talk like that.

[Buuuuuut he's not offended or bothered in the slightest. Instead, he just happily has his bite and his kiss.]

So we have late check out right?

[Of course they do. But it wouldn't be Jirou if he didn't try to take advantage of sleeping in.]

[toobigtohandle]

Of course.

[In fact, the suite is booked for the next few days, even though they'll probably leave before then. Besides, there might not be much sleeping done tonight, so they'll need the day to rest.]

Have some more.

[They'll keep feeding each other all the way through the meal. And then the cake is brought out, with more sparkling sake.]

I ordered at the shop Biffy works at.

[sakeplz]

[Jirou gasps softly at the cake. It's gorgeous with all the red and white to it, the carefully crafted flowers. He smiles as he admires it.]

It's stunning. You really put so many details into all of this!

[He holds Kenta's hand and sighs happily.]

It's almost too beautiful to eat.
