[ he sounds unfortunately much fonder than he's meaning to. also his ears are bright red, so at least it's not a face time call. goddammit he fell into that hook line and sinker. ]
( samatoki can practically hear the embarrassment in ichiro's voice, so it's easy to picture what he looks like on the other side. why does he make this so easy? )
Yeah, couple times. Doesn't make it any less true, you ass. [ he wasn't really expecting a phone call out of samatoki tonight, so this is... it's kind of nice. catch him curling up with his phone a tiny bit like a teenage girl. shut up .] Not just doing that cause you're hot, though.
Because I like you. [ that comes quick, as easy as breathing; he's such an affectionate guy, it's not that embarrassing. ] You make me nuts sometimes, but life'd be boring as hell otherwise. I mean, yeah, you're really hot. I was totally sure you answered the door shirtless that one time on purpose.
[ a brief pause; the fondness bleeds into his tone a little further. it's a late night, and curling up with his phone like this is almost close enough to the real thing. ] ...But I don't think I've ever wanted somebody else this bad. You're not like anybody else I've ever met.
[ he laughs, soft. ] Don't let your head get too big, though, you still piss me off half the time.
( there's a pause from the other end of the line as samatoki listens to ichiro. his heart is doing weird things he isn't sure if he likes, but the feeling that comes wit hearing ichiro's words just make him feel so... warm. he's never felt anything like it before, at least, not as strongly as right now.
he has no idea how to put his own thoughts together like ichiro just did, so hopefully his message is pretty obvious even if he puts it this way: )
... Thanks for feeding my ego. ( well. ) But I like you too.
The last thing your ego needs is feeding. [ ichiro mutters, but he sounds fond when he says it: yeah, he doesn't really mind feeding his ego that much when it's the truth.
there's a little bit of a rush of joy that comes with saying all that stuff, though, so he grins into the receiver on his end, curling around his phone a little closer. it means a lot just to hear samatoki say something like that, so let him go off on cloud 9. ] This was probably the best job perk ever. Day's always a little better when you're around. [ a pause: ] You're still gonna help me pierce my ear, right?
[ he's sounding more like a puppy by the second. ]
