"Don’t you think we could find some videos about that on YouTube?”
"Why would someone upload a tutorial about how to kiss?" Isn't it a bit silly?” Jun asked, rolling his eyes at the other’s question, and laughing when he saw the pained expression of Nino. "I mean, yeah… there are videos for everything and everything, but I don't think it's the help we’re looking for right now."
"For your information… you would be surprised to know the infinite amount of things people look at on YouTube, Jun-kun."
"You're right, but I think..."
"I get it; it's not going to help us at all. You already made it clear the last three times I said it.” Nino interrupted with a loud sigh. He put his cellphone aside and flopped down on the couch, defeated.
The two of them used to spend the afternoons together after school, either doing their homework or just hanging out. Normally, Jun was alone at home at that time since his parents and his older sister were at work, so Nino always went with him so as not to leave him alone and to eat his food, since his best friend was good at cooking and he was always down for free food.
That day, Nino went to his best friend's house intending to study with him for a literature exam that they would attend the next day, and, since Jun had more knowledge about this subject than Nino, he knew that he would need his help. On the opposite, Jun assaulted him with questions about how to kiss someone, a thing that, which neither of them had previous experience and, it wasn’t something that worried Nino too much if someone asked him, but Jun had planned to go out next weekend with Ishihara Satomi, one of his classmates and he was nervous, there was a chance that they could kiss and Jun didn’t want to leave a bad first impression.
“Well… if you ask me, I don't understand why you're this concern to leave a good impression on her… I mean, it's not like Satomi-chan is a kissing guru.” Nino commented, taking an onigiri to his mouth, giving it a tiny bit while he shrugged.
"I know, but... she's already had a boyfriend, so I don't want to kiss her and let her think that I'm an awful kisser," Jun replied with a sigh.
“You don't even know if you two are going to kiss… stop worrying this much, go out with her, and let whatever happens to happen, J. This is how things work out in real life, you know?”
“Do you know what I would like?
Jun muttered thoughtfully after a moment of silence. Nino looked up from his onigiri to look at him curiously, preparing himself for the stupid idea that would come next. He knew that when his best friend made that face, nothing good would come out of his mouth.
"I'm dying to know."
"I'd like to practice with someone... find someone I trust enough to kiss them and then, that person would tell me where to improve." Nino closed his eyes, placing a hand on his face.
"So… are you going to hire an escort?"
“What do you think I am? I'm not going to hire an escort for that... besides, I think those people don't kiss.” Jun flashed a playful smile, approaching Nino slowly. He sat on the couch, next to Nino and staring at the smaller guy with his persuasive dark eyes. "You're going to help me; you're going to practice with me."
“Wait, what!? Me?” Nino shook his head quickly in disbelief, standing up as if a spring were propelling him up. He looked at Jun with wide eyes, not believing what he just heard. "Of course not, J... how are we going to kiss? I mean, it isn’t because we're both guys, but because... I'm your best friend, why the hell would I help you with something as intimate as that?”
"For the same reason, Kazu." Jun stood up, grabbing Nino by the shoulders to force him to look at him. “You’re my best friend and you are not going to judge me… if you feel that I’m doing something weird, you could tell me how to improve and I could do the same with you. This is something that I couldn't trust anyone than you.”
“But…”
"Please, Kazunari. You're the only one with whom I could do something like that... and, you're too honest to the point of being cruel and that's exactly what I need.”
Nino tried not to meet his eyes, which was impossible. Jun was looking at him pleadingly, his lips slightly pursed, silently begging him to fulfill his whim. The smaller one cursed himself for being so weak and for not knowing how to say no to Jun, especially when he used his weapons of manipulation on him.
"Damn you, Matsumoto."
“Is that a yes? Ah… you are the best friend in the whole world! No, not from all over the world, from all over the planet!” He shouted with a huge smile, pulling Nino's cheeks gently. "Thanks to you, Kazu, I'm not going to look like a failure on my date with Satomi-chan this weekend. You’re the best.”
"Don't thank me yet, I can change my mind if you keep doing this to me." He mumbled reluctantly, getting rid of Jun’s hands from his face. "Besides, I don't know how to kiss either, so don't expect much advice from me; I do this because I’m an idiot who doesn’t know how to say "no" for an answer.”
"I know, that's why I asked you. Come on, let's practice.” Jun took him by the hand, going to the couch again to sit next to him, facing each other. Nino suddenly felt nervous... he never, ever, in any of his wildest dreams did he imagine that his first kiss would be with his best friend —even if it was just for practice— and thinking about it made him want to run out of there.
It is not like he was so interested in kissing someone, he even had a lifelong crush on Sakurai Sho, one of his superiors. Of course, he sometimes thought about how it felt to kiss him, but it wasn’t like that was on the first place of his priority list. Nino was patient, he was somebody who preferred to wait for things to take their course and take place at the moment they were destined to happen.
Unlike Jun, who didn’t like to wait and do things at his own pace, or in the best of cases, prepare himself in advance without even knowing if something was going to happen or not.
And now, thanks to Jun, they were about to kiss, and Nino could feel his heartbeat echoing in his ears, his lips went dry and his hands were slightly sweaty. He lowered his gaze to his best friend’s lips, and it was as if it were the first time he had seen them; He told himself that he liked the shape of Jun's lips and how voluminous they were, Nino thought that Jun was an idiot for worrying about giving a bad impression because, with those lips, he couldn’t be a bad kisser.
Realizing the direction his thoughts took, his cheeks turned red, drawing the attention of his best friend.
“Are you nervous? Did you regret it? If it bothers you to kiss me, we can stop now…” Nino shook his head in response, looking up to meet Jun’s brown eyes. He smiled and put his left hand on one of his knees.
"Let's do it."
"Okay then... close your eyes, Nino. I can’t do this if you are looking at me like that.” They both laughed at Jun's comment and the other did as requested. Nino closed his eyes and gasped, feeling the warm breath of the dark-haired guy brushing his skin, immediately forgetting to laugh.
Seconds later, Jun's warm lips brushed against his with some clumsiness and slowness, although, for Nino that was a new sensation, totally unknown, strange, but he… he liked it.
He liked it so damn much.
Not knowing what to do, Nino moved his lips against Jun’s, trying to find a way to keep it up and kiss him back, as he felt that both he and Jun couldn’t do it properly. He opened his eyes when Jun pulled away from him, looking into his eyes with slightly rosy cheeks.
"It was a disaster, right?" He asked, waiting for an answer from the latter. Nino shook his head, feeling as confused as Jun was.
"I think we just didn't know how… you know…" Nino united his hands, entwining his fingers together as he talked. "We didn't know how to… I don’t know how to put it… I think it's because it was the first time for both of us." He sighed softly. “Let's try again, slowly, and I'll try to move my head to the opposite side, I think it would be better that way, don’t you think?”
"You're right, let's do it like that." Nino saw his best friend smile, stroking his long, black hair to take on his starting position. He tried to ignore the way his heart skipped a beat when he saw the slow smile that Jun gave him before speaking again, biting his lower lip. "Would you mind if I touch your hair or your cheeks as we kiss?"
"Not at all, it's okay, J."
"Okay, let's do it again...”
This time, Jun reduced the distance between their faces, smiling again before closing his eyes and joining their mouths in a slow, delicate, unhurried kiss that made Nino shudder. He felt Jun’s warm hands resting on his cheeks, preventing him from separating from the dark-haired guy; Nino kissed him back with the same slowness, tilting his face slightly and making their mouths fit perfectly.
It was as if his lips were made for Jun.
As the seconds passed, both Nino and Jun continued to be overwhelmed by the sweet sensation caused by rubbing their mouths against each other. The hands of the dark-haired guy went down to the narrow waist of Nino, while he wrapped his arms around Jun’s neck, letting himself be carried away by the need that grew inside him. A part of him was telling him that they were just practicing, that he was helping Jun gain confidence, that they weren't in a make-out session like a couple.
So why didn't he want to stop?
Why did he feel like he was addicted to Jun’s lips and the way he kissed him?
The absence of air made them break the spell, stopping that intense kiss; Nino was flushed, breathing heavily, and his heart pounding wildly in his chest. Looking up, he met the intense gaze that Jun gave him, who was now with his cheeks completely rosy, his lips swollen and reddened, as a result of the passionate kisses they have shared in "their training."
It was the first time that Jun had given him a look like that, a look that was difficult for Nino to read, but it made him shudder, it made him completely forget where they were and what they were doing until that moment. This time, Nino grabbed the latter by the cheeks, kissing him passionately and letting out a deep sigh while parting his lips, which Jun took as a silent invitation to enter his tongue inside him, seizing his warm cavity, and brushing against his repeatedly, earning a delicate moan that echoed in Jun's mouth.
Jun’s hands rested on Nino’s hips, taking the smaller one firmly to make him straddle Jun, kissing him more and more eagerly.
"J..." Nino whispered when he felt the opposite press him against his body. But the second later, he regretted doing it, he was turned on…
Damn it.
He was turned on with the kisses of his best friend.
It was amazing that this was happening, weren't they supposed to be just practicing? How is he now he not only wanted to keep kissing Jun but take things a bit further?
“I am doing it right…?” He inquired in a whisper, leaving delicate kisses on Nino's chin, descending to his neck, leaving a wet kiss on his skin, causing him to close his eyes and bite his lower lip.
He couldn’t give out a coherent answer, what could he say to Jun?
He nodded, avoiding meeting his piercing eyes, embarrassed with him and himself for being so weak. Nino wanted to stand up, tell his best friend that everything was wrong and that he should go, that it was more than clear that they didn’t need to continue and that Satomi would be thrilled to kiss him.
But he was still there, sitting on his lap.
"Kazu…" he whispered in his ear this time, reaching up to one of his buttocks, pressing it against him firmly. A strained moan escaped from Nino’s swollen lips, who was now biting his lower lip in a failed attempt to keep silent. "Tell me if you like it, tell me if it's just me who's going crazy..."
"Isn't it obvious...? Of course, I like it, J,” he muttered breathlessly, putting a small hand into his dark hair and outlining a slight smile when he felt another soft kiss from the other. "But I'm supposed to help you be better for your date..."
One of Jun’s fingers rested on his lips, shutting him up.
"The only thing I care about right now is what you’re thinking… I need to know how do you feel when I kiss you."
“I think it is needless to say, it is quite evident.” Seeing the sly smile that curved Jun's rosy lips, Nino could tell he had made a mistake by feeding his ego with those words, but he couldn’t deny it, the reactions of his body had betrayed him. "But a little more practice wouldn't hurt."
"I don't want to practice, I just want to be perfect, Kazu."
“Then, we have a lot to do...”
They both smiled widely, Nino said nothing in response when Jun leaned back against the couch, pulling him gently so now he was on top of his, nor did he say anything when the latter pressed him against his body as their mouths joined again in a slow kiss. Nino only let out a sigh of pure ecstasy, letting himself be carried away by the warmness of the moment.
That afternoon, they didn’t leave Jun's room.
Nor did they need or want to.
