[ Given their already close proximity and how Renji's stare was fixed on Keigo's face, beaming through the overflowing tears like sun on a rainy day, he really had no choice but to let Keigo hurled himself at him. A muffled bark of surprise left his lips as Keigo flung his arms around his neck and he didn't know that this position of Keigo crying on him was any better than the last one.
Renji's face turned to an even deeper shade of red, embarrassed to have laid his heart so bare for Keigo and even more embarrassed for Keigo to reciprocate with such a lavishly affectionate and emotional response. He didn't know why he expected anything halfway dignified from him, why he thought he could leave it at a smile and a nod and maybe not sob again. He didn't know why this totally sappy display made him so happy either, or why Keigo's promise that he'd make him remember rang so sweetly in his ears.
It wasn't even a second after Keigo had finished that Renji grabbed his forearms and pried him off with all his considerable strength. ]
Heartfelt my ass, I was just tellin' you the truth!!
[ Between the flush on his face and the way his brows drew together and how loudly he was protesting, the only clue that he wasn't angry was the look in his eyes, soft and warm and with a trace of concern. His grip on his arms slackened just a touch as his eyes met Keigo's but his hands didn't leave him. ]
