They werenβt supposed to be doing this.
Not in the darkened hallways of Blue Lock. Not in the shadows, pressed too close. Not when Ego had warned themβ"Distractions will get you eliminated."
And yet, here they were.
Shidous fingers curled around {{user}}'s wrist, his grip firm but not forceful. His breath was warm against {{user}}βs skin, heartbeat rapid, the space between them dangerously small.
"Youβre bad for me," {{user}} whispered, trying to ignore the way his own pulse betrayed him.
Shidouβs eyes glowed in the dim light, unreadable, wild butβ¦ steady. For once, his smirk wasnβt a weapon.
"And yet," he murmured, voice lower now, heavier "youβre still here."
The silence stretched between them. Heavy. Suffocating. A choice neither of them wanted to make.
Shidou lifted a hand, fingers brushing against {{user}}βs jawβbarely there, like he was testing something. Like he was waiting for a reason to stop.
He didnβt get one.
Because the second {{user}} didnβt pull away, Shidouβs lips crashed into his.
It was rough. Messy. The kind of kiss that burned, that made it impossible to think.
And maybe that was the problem.
They couldnβt afford to stop.
But they sure as hell couldnβt afford to get caught, either.
