aquamarine

Blue and maroon intertwined on each of their ten digits, dissolving the room into an aquamarine quagmire of heat as their hearts synced to the cobalt clock on the wall. Seconds blended with the pearlescent white on the clockface and minutes seemed to freeze. A drum-like jolt caused Legoshi to whip his felt-like hand from Kai's as he sensed the door swing open once more. Scrambling up from the clean drama hall floor, one azure ear pricked at the sound of a familiar tone. Dom and Louis were half-facing each other, deep in conversation.

Kai sat still, contemplating what might have occurred from a stray glance by the slender pair. He shot Legoshi a look of mixed emotions—disappointment, curiosity, and perhaps a hint of longing.

"Louis-senpai!" Legoshi blurted out, passion clear on his blushed face before he quickly composed himself. It had been a while since Louis had regained his antlers, and the spring had prepared them for a great performance in the coming academic months. Louis looked at the pair who had come in earlier than him, mild surprise evident in his eyes.

"Kai.. Legoshi.."

A few greetings echoed around the class, and Legoshi shuffled up the lighting crew's ladder with a darting Kai behind him. Dom mentioned something about 'Dress rehearsals' coming soon, which Legoshi could understand from his perch on the scaffolding.

Louis flung a wooden sword to Dom's arms and claimed one for his own. Louis's swordsmanship needed some attention, and he was eager to practice. The room sparked with parries and blows, and the two onlookers stared attentively at the scene unfurling on the carpeted stage. Passion flowed down the route of each attack and splashed with every fall of the curtain.

Legoshi's eyes darted between the combatants and the jet-black iron railing he and Kai leaned on seeming to fall asleep in the near future on his scruffy uniform sleeve. Without prompting, he knelt down so he was a foot or so below Kai's level, almost automatic in his movements. The rehearsal wore on, as did the early hour, but no words came from the wolf. His heart still blurry with the transpiring actions in this hour and the last. The silence between them was thick with unspoken thoughts and feelings.

Kai glanced down at Legoshi, his expression softening. "Legoshi, about earlier..."

Legoshi's ears perked up and his jaw levered itself ajar an inch or two to speak, his attention shifting fully to Kai. "Oh..? Y-Yeah?"

Kai hesitated, then smiled faintly. "I'm glad we had that moment. Even if it was interrupted." His eyes somehow more earthy in hue and larger when he was looking at his counterpart on the deck.

Legoshi felt his heart race again, the warmth from their earlier touch still lingering. "Me too, Kai. Maybe we can... talk more ?" Attempting his best freindly grin he could muster,

Kai nodded, a hopeful gleam in his eyes. "I'd like that."

Below them, Louis and Dom continued their practice, oblivious to the quiet exchange above. The room was filled with the sounds of wooden swords clashing and the grunts of exertion. But for Legoshi and Kai, time seemed to stand still once more, their shared glance promising more moments to come.

As the rehearsal grew on, so did the early hour. Legoshi found himself stealing glances at Kai, his mind racing with possibilities, melting with a new sensation every turn of thought. He knew the path ahead wouldn't be easy, but for the first time, he felt a sense of clarity. Whatever challenges lay in wait, he was ready to face them—together with Kai.

"LIGHTS!"- louis had given their command, Legoshi stretched out his hand to the silver switch but was beaten to the race by a brown flash of a mongoose. He could only look in awe, or was it adoration at the thing who illuminated the room and his longing smile?

"Well, thanks you two." Louis seemed hesitant to spare his glance at the early birds, but when he struck another surprising engaging blow to his opponent Dom and himself away, the two could resist no more. Kai leaned in, approaching like observing a skittish animal he wanted to tame and study, Legoshi found hid twitching snout lifting forward like a drawstring had been pulled from the beams of light. After his pupils dilated at the sudden prospect Kai had already placed his lips on Legoshi. A heavy pair of arms circled their recipient, hesitating a pair of inches from Kai's back, before clamping on and allowing Legoshi to commit to what had just happened.

"M-Mm!" Kai's slim wrists pressed against his neck as their foreheads met.Of course! Here's a revised and expanded version of your scene:

"LIGHTS!" Louis commanded. Legoshi stretched out his hand towards the silver switch, but a brown flash of a mongoose beat him to it. He could only look in awe—or was it adoration—at the creature who illuminated the room and his longing smile.

"Well, thanks, you two." Louis seemed hesitant to spare his glance at the early birds, but when he struck another surprisingly engaging blow to his opponent, Dom and himself were pushed away, leaving the two to resist no more. Kai leaned in, approaching like he was observing a skittish animal he wanted to tame and study. Legoshi found his twitching snout lifting forward as if a drawstring had been pulled from the beams of light. 

As his pupils dilated at the sudden prospect, Kai had already placed his lips on Legoshi's. A heavy pair of arms circled their recipient, hesitating a pair of inches from Kai's back before clamping on and allowing Legoshi to commit to what had just happened.

"M-Mm!" Kai's slim wrists pressed against Legoshi's neck as their foreheads met, breaths mingling in the shared, intimate space.

The world around them seemed to dissolve into a quagmire of heat once more. 

Legoshi pulled back slightly, his gaze searching Kai's eyes for any sign of hesitation. But Kai's expression was one of pure contentment, his whiskers twitching with a mixture of excitement and relief.

"Kai, I—" Legoshi began, but Kai gently pressed a finger to his lips.

"Shh, Legoshi. We don't need words right now," Kai whispered, his voice barely audible over the pounding of their hearts.

Louis and Dom's sparring continued in the background, the sounds of wooden swords clashing a distant story to the moment shared between Legoshi and Kai. The rehearsal, the early hour, everything else faded into insignificant dancing shadows.

Kai pulled back just enough to rest his forehead against Legoshi's, their breaths still mingling. "I've wanted to do that for a while," Kai admitted, his eyes sparkling with a mixture of shyness and boldness.

Legoshi's smile was soft, his own feelings finally finding a voice. "W-w- M-Me too, Kai. I didn't realize how much until.. now."

The two of them stayed like that, lost in each other's presence, until the reality of their surroundings gently nudged them back. They could hear Louis wrapping up his practice, his sarcastic voice a reminder of the world they had momentarily escaped from.

As they reluctantly broke apart, Legoshi felt a newfound warmth in his chest. He knew the challenges they would face, both within the Theatre Club and beyond, but he felt ready to face them, as long as Kai was by his side.

"Let's talk more later," Kai said, his voice full of promise.

Legoshi nodded, a smile tugging at his lips. "Definitely."

With that, they returned to their tasks, the glow of their shared moment lingering like the morning light filtering through the drama hall windows. The future was uncertain, but for now, the connection they had forged was enough to carry them through whatever came next.
