Author's Comment: This idea was planted in my head after reading too many ToraPon fics. I blame tingedwords  for putting ToraPon thoughts in my head instead of PonShou XD I usually try to avoid writing Tora as a major character since I'm not very good at writing him... but let me know what you think! Comments are love :)

Tora glanced back over his shoulder, surprised to see Hiroto lagging behind. He walked slowly and kept blinking as if struggling to keep his eyes open. Was this the same person who’d been racing around at top speed an hour ago?

He slowed down so Hiroto could catch up to him. “What’s wrong?”

The shorter guitarist yawned. “Nothing. I’m just,” he yawned again. “Tired.”

Tora raised an eyebrow. ‘Hiroto’ and ‘tired’ were two words that rarely went together since the younger man was always so energetic.

Hiroto rubbed his eyes. “I think I’m having a sugar crash.”

That made sense. He and Nao had rushed to Starbucks to get their favorite coffees, then Hiroto had discovered a nearby candy shop and gotten hyped up from all the sugar. Combine that with running around, squealing like a fan girl when he saw a shop filled with Spiderman stuff and generally being his usual hyper self, it was no wonder Hiroto was tired.

“You shouldn’t eat so much sweet stuff then.”

Hiroto pouted. “But it’s yummy!”

“It’ll just make you tired later. Come on; let’s catch up with the others.” Tora started walking again, matching his pace to Hiroto’s slower one. They hadn’t missed much in their brief absence from their band mates. Nao was still talking about Gundams to Saga, who was busy trying to molest Shou was usual – although he was being more subtle about it since they were in public. His hand kept wandering from its friendly position on Shou’s shoulder lower and lower down his back, until the vocalist would blush and swat his hand away. 

 “Saga, stop feeling Shou up. You know he doesn’t like that,” Nao scolded, flushing a little.

Saga smirked and wrapped his arms around the vocalist’s waist. “But I do!”

“We’ve noticed,” Tora said flatly, glancing back to check on Hiroto as he realized the other was no longer at his side. The younger man had lagged behind once again. He looked exhausted, stumbling forward as his eyes fluttered shut. Tora sprang forward and caught him before he could fall, a little worried. He hadn’t seen Hiroto this tired before.

“Thanks, Tora.” The lead guitarist yawned and slumped forward against his chest. “I’m sleepy.”

“I noticed.” Tora gently pushed him away. “You’re going to fall and scrape that pretty face of yours unless you’re more careful.”

Hiroto blushed. “You think I’m pretty?”

Tora felt like he was talking to Shou, who blushed and stammered whenever he was complimented. “Yes.” How could he not?

Hiroto blushed again. “Thanks,” he mumbled, covering his mouth as he yawned again. He cast Tora a tired smile, tripping over his own feet as he stepped forward. The rhythm guitarist caught him again, deciding that Hiroto was a hazard to himself in his current state.

“I don’t think you should be walking.”

Hiroto blinked. “What else should I do?”

“I’ll carry you until you’re more awake.” Tora turned around, leaning over so Hiroto could climb onto his back. The younger guitarist did so, draping his arms over Tora’s chest.

“Thanks, Tora-shi.”

“Don’t mention it.” Tora hooked his arms under Hiroto’s knees, making sure the other had a good grip on him before he started walking again. Carrying Hiroto was no problem since the other man was so light.

Tora caught up to his band mates again. Saga had finally taken his hands off Shou, and Nao stopped talking about Gundams when the two guitarists joined them. “Pon? What’s wrong? Why is Tora carrying you? Are you hurt?” he asked, looking worried.

“I’m sleepy.”

 “He almost face planted on the sidewalk twice so I thought I should carry him.”

“Pon, do you like riding Tora?” Saga cackled.

“Saga!” Shou turned red. “Don’t say such dirty things.”

Tora, used to the bassist’s perverted remarks, just snorted in response. He couldn’t see the look on Hiroto’s face, but judging by the horrified silence he imagined the other was blushing.

Once Hiroto had processed the comment, he took an arm off Tora’s neck and smacked Saga upside the head. “Get your mind out of the gutter! Why would I like it?!”

Saga chuckled as he draped an arm around Shou’s shoulder. “Why? It’s so fun. And I bet you would enjoy it. You’ve probably thought about it before.”

Tora shifted awkwardly, trying to keep his thoughts from wandering down a very perverted direction. He’d wanted Hiroto for awhile, but couldn’t bring himself to admit his feelings.

“Saga!” Nao looked appalled.

“What? He’s blushing so much it’s probably true!”

Shou groaned and covered his lover’s mouth with his hand. “Please stop, Saga. Pon’s tired so let him relax.”

Saga huffed, but wound his arms around Shou’s waist and refrained from making anymore dirty remarks. “Fine, I’ll behave. Where are we going next?”

Nao took his map out of his pocket. “Um, do you want to do more shopping or do you want to check out the beach?”

“Shopping!” Shou said eagerly.

Saga shook his head. “I’d rather go to the beach. We’re on vacation, we can shop later.”

Tora shrugged. “I don’t care. Pon?”

There was no response except for the sound of Hiroto’s gentle breathing, and his head resting against Tora’s.

“I think he’s sleeping,” Nao said in a hushed voice. He leaned in closer so he could take a good look at Hiroto. “He is. Maybe we should take him back to our hotel. The crowds here might wake him up, and we don’t want Tora-shi to have to carry Pon the entire time.”

“I’m fine; he doesn’t weigh much.”

“I think going back to the hotel is a good idea. Once Hiroto wakes up we can go to the beach,” Shou suggested. No one objected so they switched directions and began walking back to their hotel. Nao checked on Hiroto every so often to make sure that he was still asleep, and they spoke in hushed voices so they wouldn’t wake their youngest.

It didn’t take long for them to reach their hotel, and Shou held the door open for them. Alice Nine filed inside.

“Stairs or elevator?” Saga mused, making a face at the group of people waiting for the elevator.

Tora shot him a look. “I’m not carrying Pon up three flights of stairs.”

“Let’s take the elevator then.” They joined the line. Tora got a couple of weird looks since he had a grown man asleep on his back, but he ignored the stares. They were in luck since they managed to get an elevator to themselves. Shou hit the three button once all of them were inside, and they filed out once they reached their floor.

“Should we put Hiroto in his room?” Shou wondered.

Tora shook his head. “I’ll put him in mine.”

Saga stepped forward. “I’ll take Pon so you can get your key.” Gently, he pulled the sleeping Hiroto off of Tora’s back and held him in his arms as Tora took out his wallet. He found the key and unlocked the door, reclaiming Hiroto from Saga. He didn’t like seeing the lead guitarist in another man’s arms.

Shou blushed as his stomach growled. “Do you all want to go out to eat?”

“I’m not hungry. I’ll stay with Pon and read,” Tora replied, stepping into his hotel room.

“Okay, let us know when he wakes up,” Nao said, walking away with Saga and Shou. Tora nodded and kicked the door shut behind him before going over to his bed. He set Hiroto down, tucking him in and making sure he was comfortable before turning away. He paused as the younger guitarist caught his hand, pulling it up against his chest with a contented sigh.

“Mm… don’t leave. Bad tiger,” Hiroto mumbled, sleepily tugging on Tora’s arm.

Tora blinked. For a moment he thought Hiroto had woken up, but the younger’s eyes were still closed. Hiroto tugged his arm again, and Tora got onto the bed with him. The shorter man immediately glued himself to him, snuggling up against Tora’s chest and wrapping his arms around his waist. A contented smile brightened his features as he cuddled closer to Tora’s warmth. Tora was surprised, but wound his arms around Hiroto’s back. He hadn’t expected this, but he didn’t have any complaints. Having Hiroto in his arms felt right.

Tora sighed as he leaned his face against his fellow guitarist’s soft hair. He’d liked Hiroto for months, but still had yet to tell him. The usual fear of rejection had stopped him, along with his concern that it might disrupt Alice Nine. Now that he had Hiroto in his arms, he felt pathetic for hiding his feelings. What was he, some insecure high school student all over again? If Hiroto liked him too, he could have had countless nights like this with Hiroto falling asleep in his arms instead of sleeping alone with just his cat for company.

“Tora,” Hiroto mumbled.

“Hm?” Tora raised his head, glancing down at him. The younger man was still asleep, and Tora could only wonder what he was dreaming about. Obviously it was about him, but he wanted to know what he was doing in Hiroto’s dream.

“Stay.”

Tora drew him a little closer, wondering if he might be able to get a confession from Hiroto. “Why?” It was probably stupid to talk to Hiroto when he was asleep, but if he got the answer he wanted then it’d have been a good idea.

The younger man clutched his shirt. “Because I like you.”

Tora froze. Not an answer he’d been expecting, but one he definitely liked.  “I like you too.”

Hiroto smiled in his sleep. “Good.” He was quiet after that, and Tora was content to hold him and watch him sleep. He didn’t feel any desire to leave the bed.

Tora stayed with Hiroto until the younger man stirred, squirming in his arms. Tora loosened his grip, and Hiroto’s eyes fluttered open. He looked confused, then surprised, then embarrassed as he realized he’d slept in Tora’s arms.

“What?!” Hiroto squeaked, flying up into a sitting position. His hair stood up in several directions, making him look even cuter than he already was.

Tora stretched and leaned back against the pillows. “You fell asleep when I carried you. Nao suggested we go back to the hotel, and when I put you down you grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let go.”

“Oh.” Hiroto rubbed the sleep from his eyes. “I hope I didn’t kick you or say anything weird in my sleep.”

Tora smirked. “You did talk in your sleep.”

Hiroto groaned. “What’d I say now?”

“You begged me to stay with you.”

The younger man blushed. “I did?”

Tora inched closer. “And you said you liked me.”

Hiroto turned even redder. “I-I did?” he squeaked, looking nervous.

“You did. Were you telling the truth?”

The lead guitarist blushed more. “Um.”

Tora pulled him down to his level. “What would you do if I said I liked you too?”

Hiroto’s eyes widened. “You do?”

Deciding that actions were better than words, Tora kissed those soft, pouty lips he’d had way too many fantasies about, and kissing the real thing was far better than any fantasy. Hiroto froze in shock but soon he was kissing back, shyly wrapping his arms around Tora’s neck and pressing closer to him. He drew back a few moments later when he needed to breathe, panting softly and looking a bit worried.

“I’m not dreaming am I?”

“You’re not.” Tora pulled him back into his arms and kissed Hiroto again, glad that he’d had that sugar crash. If he hadn’t, none of this would have happened.
