Harry passed the piece of paper across the table too aware of the heat blushing through his face. 

Why was it like this with Aki? Harry could be dating him and not know it. And writing down a few pretty vanilla things in Aki's superior presence made Harry feel a shyness that he never felt when he was actually doing much much more lewd things in real life.

 Looking at the list, Aki’s perfect brow creased up in a frown.

‘What’s wrong, Mr Prissy? You told me to write down what I desired.’ Harry pouted and folded his arms.

‘It’s not about what you’ve written, it’s how you’ve written it. I can normally decipher your writing, but this is messier than normal.’

Harry growled. ‘That’s my neatest writing, you’re such a…really annoying person that’s so really annoying I can’t think of a word for you right now.’ He snatched the paper back. ‘I’ll read it to you!’

He gazed down at his list and bit his lip. He needed to start thinking about words before they left his mouth. Reading it out loud was way worse than writing these things down. But he wouldn’t be intimidated! Even though Aki was looking at him with one raised eyebrow and the kind of expression in his eyes that a disappointed teacher would give a dumb kid.

Harry took a deep breath. ‘Right. This is my boyfriend list thing for you. Dating, which covers doing all the stuff that means I absolutely without a single teeny doubt know we’re dating. Then, um, second was, and these aren’t like in order of importance or anything, but, yeah second is making out. Which is like really hot and steamy kissing that lasts for hours and hours and where it’s really clear we’re hotter for each other than anyone else that we’ve ever known or seen or imagined ever ever.’

‘That would be more believable if my boyfriend isn’t attracted to every man he walks past,’ Aki muttered.

‘I don’t have to walk past men to check them out.’ Harry grinned

Aki didn’t laugh.

Still despite the weirdness of this situation, Harry’s heart and stomach did weird flippity floppity things at Aki referring to him as ‘my boyfriend’.

Harry cleared his throat a couple of times and continued with his list.

‘Um, third, I like um, well I kinda know you won’t be into this, but, yeah, you told me to write it down, so, yeah, I’d like you to wear sexy things that you’d only wear for your boyfriend, which is me.’

Harry looked up. Aki’s face was a complete blank.

He paused a moment and then continued. ‘Four and five are pretty standard boyfriend things, sucking your cock, and riding you until I drain you of every last drop of come. So, yeah, that’s it.’

As he spoke, Harry tried to fold the piece of paper up, but Aki leaned over the table and pulled it to his side.

‘Thank you for deciphering your writing for me.’  Aki glanced over Harry’s list. It felt to Harry like the other man could be looking at his accounts for work.

‘Now what?’ Harry asked.

‘Now we start the negotiation,’ Aki said.
