there’s something calming about it, his pinky intertwined with lev’s like that. the anxiety pooling in his gut only moments before was replaced with a WARMTH and it’s STUPID, soso stupid, but morisuke can feel tears gathering in the corner of sad eyes and his hanging mouth becomes pursed lips as he attempts NOT to pout. it isn’t all heart tugging emotion, no, he’s HAPPY too. irritatingly jubilant with suchs i m p l e, practically MEANINGLESS words.
his free hand comes to cover his eyes and the tears threatening to fall, other undoing their frivolous pinky promise to lock all fingers with the latter instead. ❛ lev, you idiot
—— ❜ there’s definite sniffling behind his hand turned barrier and morisuke curses himself for having to be so damnedSENSITIVE. ❛ look what you’ve done, this is all your fault. ❜
that momentary happiness was something he wanted to DESPERATELY cling onto, but, we all couldn’t have what we wanted. he knew his senpai could be sensitive on different matters, however to see him actually tear up, made his heart ACHE. at the idiot comment, his brow quirks upward, but then once he realizes whats happening, that’s when his heart sank fully, along with that happy expression (which was replaced with worry.)
he bites onto his own lower lip as hetightenstheir intertwined fingers ever so slightly. god, why couldn’t he just stay one more year? at least let them spend more time together on the court. that’s all lev wanted. hearing him sniffle the taller male couldn’t take it any longer. with his free hand, he gently removes morisuke’s hand away from his eyes, leaving it there on his cheek. he wanted to comfort him, he couldn’t stand to see him sad anymore. he bends down so their heights match, eyes locked onto his.
❛hey.. p-please don’t cry, yaku-san.. i’m sorry, i didn’t meanto make you upset, i-i know i’m an idiot,, oh! come on, kick me! i’ll let you! it’ll make you feel better.– ❜
