“Shouta!”Shouta turned at the shout of his name, blinking as an excited Hizashi came bounding up to him, barely dodging a group of second years who were bent over a copy of what looked to be Witches Weekly. “Hey. What's up?”Hizashi grinned, holding up a small wrapped package with both hands. “Okay, so I know you had, like, plans for tonight,” he started, going a little pink in the cheeks at the words 'plans', “but my parents just sent me this and I was wondering if we could just do another moo-vee night instead?”A snort escaped Shouta. “It's pronounced 'movie'. And sure.” He'd just postpone the plans for the next night instead. That gave him a bit more time to prepare, after all. He squinted at the package. “So. What is it?”The blonde positively wiggled in happiness. “They sent over a bunch of chocolate covered berries!” he squealed, eyes practically sparkling in delight. “You remember the bakery shop in the village I live in? The one we visiting that first day you came? And how it was so expensive so we only went the once? Well, my dad helped them with an enchantment last week so as a thank you they gave them a bunch of free desserts! And my parents sent some to me!”Shouta eyed the package with a new level of interest. “Oh. That's cool.” It was. He remembers the nice Yamada couple well, with their open smiles and caring personalities. They might not be Hizashi's birth parents, but after meeting the two of them he could absolutely see where Hizashi got his positive attitude from.And more than the parents, he remembered the desserts. He'd gotten a slice of strawberry cake when they'd gone, and to top the delicate slice off there were small strawberry quarters dipped in chocolate on top. He'd never known it was possible to dip a sliced strawberry, since they were so juicy, but magic could do wonderful, delicious things.“And. You're okay with sharing those with me?” he asked, peering up through his messy hair at Hizashi.Hizashi tilted his head to the side in confusion. “Why wouldn't I be?”Shouta shrugged, looking off to the side. “No reason.” Just that it seemed like something a couple would do, not...whatever they were. “So we'll meet in the Room at our usual time?”“Absolutely! Pillow fort and pajama party!” Hizashi pressed a quick kiss to Shouta's cheek then dashed off. “See you later, Shouta!”He watched his not-quite-boyfriend-but-definitely-more-than-a-friend leave, cheeks burning a bright red, doing everything he could to stop himself from pressing a hand to where Hizashi had just kissed him like a love-struck fool. He didn't quite succeed.Later that night, both of them comfortably in pajamas and lounging on enormous pillows while watching through Disney Classics (because as a Pure Blood Hizashi had no clue what the hell Disney even was and that was a crime against humanity), Shouta stared down at the collection of chocolate covered berries in the open package. Strawberries, cherries, blueberries, raspberries...so many. All of them tasted so delicious.He peered over to Hizashi, who was completely engrossed in the children's film, eyes wide and chewing the berry he just pressed into his mouth slowly, head bobbing to the beat of Olaf's singing. His hair was down, hair still shining from the shower Hizashi had taken before heading over to the Room of Requirement, and he'd replaced his tinted glasses with a pair of plain retangular frames. With the content expression on his face and small smear of chocolate on his lips, the blonde looked beautiful.Shouta reached out to the box and picked out a raspberry. Sitting up, he took the raspberry between his teeth and tapped Hizashi on the shoulder. As soon as the other boy turned to look at him he leaned in, pressing their lips together in an open mouth kiss.Hizashi sucked in a sharp breath, whole body moving into the kiss as Shouta carefully coaxed the little berry into the other's mouth. Everything tasted sweet and tart, and he couldn't help licking in for a moment to taste some more before pulling away. He swallowed at the flushed, dazed look on the blonde's face. “Don't forget to chew,” he managed roughly.Hizashi's eyes fluttered closed at that, flush spreading to his ears quickly as he slowly chewed. It was only after he swallowed that he opened his eyes again, licking his lips free of chocolate. “That...that wasn't quite what I had in mind when I suggested sharing these,” he said, voice thready.Shouta reached for another berry, popping it into his mouth to chew. “Did you not like it?”“I – “ Hizashi cleared his throat, licking his lips again. “No, I liked it.” He paused, hesitating, then reached over to the box for a small blueberry, sliding it into his mouth. With a slow blink he leaned in, lips brushing against Shouta's softly before pressing in close.Shouta wasted no time in pulling Hizashi closer, opening his mouth willingly to take the small dessert from Hizashi's mouth when it was pressed in with a slick tongue. He groaned and held Hizashi to him for just a little longer, enjoying the slide of their lips together and the sweet taste between them. It was only when Hizashi's fingers started curling into his shirt that he pulled away, chewing the berry and brushing hair from Hizashi's face.It was, after all, supposed to be a calm, relaxing night. No need to get worked up over some delicious kisses.“Thanks,” he whispered once he swallowed. “That tastes pretty good.”Hizashi smiled, cheeks red, and settled back in to watch the movie, curled closer to Shouta than he was before. He'd probably be red for at least another half hour, knowing him. Shouta hid a smile with another chocolate covered berry and leaned back, eager to see how Hizashi would react to the events to come in the film.
