#sakuatsu Yakuza au | "Enemies" to lovers | ‘Cheap happiness’

[Fatal Point]

Happiness came in many different forms.

For some, it came down to one's money, status and wealth. For others, the wellbeing of their family, friends, and personal health. For Sakusa?

It boiled down to the cheapest forms of happiness.

One that came at a hefty cost.
(One he was all too happy to pay for.)

Loving Miya Atsumu, the kumicho of Inarizaki, their rival gang.

As the young kumicho of Itachiyama, Sakusa knew better than anyone else that the initial spark of interest igniting in his chest the very first time he laid his eyes on Atsumu, could only mean trouble.

Reaching out to grip knobbly, calloused fingers in a handshake for formality's sake, he had reeled back at the contact, as though he’d grazed a burning flame.

The touch was one that lingered, down to his fingertips, leaving a fire in its wake.

Meeting the unwavering gaze fixated on him, staring at him with a piercing intensity that only served to unnerve him, the spectrum of hues from warm caramel to hot cocoa glinting in Atsumu’s eyes had swept his feet away, and what was left of breath, hitching in his throat in awe.

(It was there and then that Sakusa came to realise that he was quite positively done for.)

I'll continue in a couple of hours! My eyes are hurting really badly from the lack of sleep and long work shifts over the past two days ;;
