[ For some reason, Kaoru had been bracing himself for a rejection. He knows the significance of the necklace—thinks he does, at least, given it had come back from Italy with Kojiro and never left. It's obviously precious to him if he wears it all these years later, a sign that he's kept it in good condition despite it accompanying him through beefs and trips and bickering fights with Kaoru. Yet Kojiro removes it easy as anything and passes it over Kaoru's head, fingers brushing his hair and neck and ears and making him shiver. The cord and pendant are warm from where they'd rested against Kojiro's chest, a fact that makes Kaoru flush both with satisfaction and embarrassment at how content he feels to wear this. It's a symbol of their relationship, but it's also just a reminder that Kojiro is always with him. Sentimental bullshit he wouldn't be caught dead speaking of so plainly without the comfort and safety of a warm bed and late hour.
Humming at Kojiro bows to kiss the necklace, Kaoru laces his fingers against the back of his head and keeps him in place. They probably look ridiculous all twisted together like this, but for once he doesn't give a second thought to appearances. When Kojiro leans back, Kaoru lets him straighten up, but only so much. That grin is all too inviting for Kaoru to tug him back in for a kiss that he can hide his smug smile against. ]

wow so many typos in that last tag, my bad
