During the kiss, there was only one thing on Sato's mind. How did he feel about that experience?
To Sato, the kiss with Jennifer didn't actually hold any meaning nor any feelings attached to it. Ever since he had come into university, the pool of people that he sees everyday increased as compared to highschool. Yet, no matter how pretty a girl was, Sato's mind never had any thoughts or opinions on their looks. Be it guys too, even if the boy was extremely charming, it had no effect on Sato.
Was it weird? Sato had thought for several years that he was asexual. Nonetheless, there was a void in his heart that was empty. Sato felt lost whenever he tried peering into it. He knew something wasn't right and it was most definitely a result of his amnesia. Sato couldn't pinpoint what was missing in his life. He had lived blindly for those three years and only up till recently, everything started to change.
The reason why Sato was dwelling on that kiss was because of the cause of that change in his life. The cause originated from a person and it was him that ran through Sato's mind when their lips planted together. Even a dull-witted person like Sato could tell what was the reason for these thoughts. He liked Gray. He liked Gray in a romantic way.
A race of emotions had suddenly flooded his brain after the kiss. Sato was fully ecstatic when he realised he wasn't actually asexual. He had always wanted to be in a relationship like everyone else.
Seeing people going on dates and saying sweet things between each other, Sato wanted to know what that experience was like. Just that, he never had the chance.
Now, he was given an opportunity, but it was on Gray. Regardless, Sato was excited for the new experience and continued to enjoy his time at the party.
...
All this wasn't known to Gray. Back in the house, Gray stood beside the bed of the drunk young man. Sato was unwilling to go to bed as he flailed around trying to get a grip of himself. He opened his eyes to see a familiar handsome face.
"Grayyyy..."Sato dragged his word as he grinned brightly. He struggled to lift himself up, before falling over Gray's leg.
Seeing how playful Sato was, Gray couldn't help but extinguish his anger and help him out. Back when he had heard from the bodyguard about the kiss, he had this flame of jealousy that sprouted and grew in his heart. The current state of Sato helped to blow out that fire.
"Your very drunk Sato. You should stay in bed." Gray tried to put him in bed. He coaxed the 21 year old as best as he could.
"No no! I don't want to sleep yet! I wanna play games with you..." Sato shook his head with exaggeration. His flushed face and slurry speech made the boy look like an innocent child that didn't want to go to bed.
"We can play tommorow." Gray's anger was gone. Now, he was enjoying his time with drunk Sato. "I promise you."
"No! I want to spend more time with you!"
"We can spend time together tommorow right?"
"No we have to spend time together today too!" Sato shook his head innocently again, which made Gray chuckle.
"Why is that?"
"I'm scared that you will leave me..."
"I will never leave you, ok?" This time, Gray got into bed with the boy. The General could tell that Sato had changed somewhat after the party. Gray sweeped the hair that covered Sato's eyes. He gazed into them adoringly.
"I realised something today Gray." Sato spoke seriously as he looked at the man in bed with him.
"What is it?" The two boys were less than a foot away from each other.
Sato got even closer to Gray as he looked cutely at him. Without any inhibitions, Sato whispered bravely. "I like you."
What came next was history. Sato leaned in just like how Jennifer did it to him. He closed his eyes, his lips came in contact with Gray's. A warm electrical current flowed through the two individuals. It felt refreshing for Sato, like it was meant to be. Even though he was drunk, he could tell that the two kisses today were clearly different.
"Mmph.."
During their kiss, Gray bit on Sato's lower lip mischievously. It made Sato moan quietly. Gray pulled back slowly, frankly unwilling to do that. Yet, he did it because he wanted confirmation.
"What you said just now, " Gray lay hold on Sato's shoulders. "Did you mean it?"
Sato let his head fall to the right. He looked at Gray confused. "What do you mean?"
"When you said you liked me, did you mean it?" Gray repeated it to the drunk boy. Sato understood it this time. He chose to nod seriously, instead of replying. This was more than enough for Gray.
The General pulled Sato closer as he kept Sato inside his warm embrace. His heart was in turbulent from today. Gray had been wanting to hear Sato confess his feelings to him for the longest time. Ever since they met during the interview, all the way till now, he had been counting down the days till Sato realises his feelings for him once again. And today, on a very unlikely night, Sato had done it.
Not before long, Gray felt Sato's body convulsed slightly. He knew what was coming next. Reaching out for the bin that laid beside the bed, he picked it up and placed it between him and Sato. The drunk boy threw up, effectively ruining the atmosphere in the room. Gray chuckled faintly. Even though Sato said it when he was drunk, it shall be counted as a win.
