“Off to CCG?” Mutsuki asks stiffly, watching Saiko dance out the door where Urie waits, tapping his foot.
“Mucchy!” Saiko turns around with a gasp and launches herself into his arms. “Have fun with the Oggai.”
Fun? Mutsuki laughs nervously.
Saiko draws away and pokes Urie.
He growls, but grabs Mutsuki in an embrace.
Mutsuki gasps. Urie? Hug? Huh?
“Mutsuki, I love you, you absolute idiot,” Urie blurts out.
Mutsuki stares at him. “Me?”
“Come on, Urie.” Saiko winks at Mutsuki as she drags Urie along. “Make him want you.”
Mutsuki watches them – his family – leave. Urie loves him? Why? How?
Tears fill his eyes, and he hugs himself to remember how Urie’s arms felt. Urie loves me.
But how?
