I Dream Of You

---

Spanner stared up at the ceiling. It was late at night as he watched the fan continue to spin around. The half-opened window let in a small breeze. And he was able to hear the chirps of crickets from outside.

A hand was on his chest, it gripped his shirt as he kept staring at the wall above him. Both so much and only one thing were on his mind at the very same time.

It was about Minato and all the feelings that had developed within Spanner for him over these past few years. And especially the ones that had been happening as of late.

Spanner had always looked up to Minato. He was a skilled alchemist who had showed much promise and potential ever since they met for the first time all those years ago. Whenever he’d visit to see Kyoka, he’d always show kindness to him.

They bonded as Minato would help Spanner with his studies. Aiding Spanner in his training of combat alchemy. Teaching him the properties of various metals and chemicals, giving him the knowledge of formulas that were typically more advanced for people around his age. Since Spanner had showed a proficiency in alchemy from very early on, he had confidence in teaching him all these things.

Confidence that was correctly placed on him, as Spanner would skillfully solve each formula, only further proving the prowess he had for the craft. His potential showed no bounds, it looked like.

On nights where Spanner struggled with the feeling of a painful sorrow he didn’t know the source of, Minato would also comfort him alongside Kyoka, if he was in their home.

Minato had done so much for Spanner and he was forever grateful for it. And as Spanner went up the ranks and became an equal to Minato, his respect still remained. Even growing further as he saw Minato’s own developments over the years.

How Minato had become even more skilled as he rose through the ranks and eventually became a teacher, using that position to help teach the next generation of alchemists.

But as time continued to pass, those feelings of what was once simple admiration and respect had developed into something more. So much more. Bubbling in the depths of Spanner’s mind and heart.

Whenever Minato would look his way with that smile of his, Spanner could feel his heart skip a beat. As Minato would further train in combat alchemy, Spanner would feel a heat in his gut begin to form as he saw him swing his sword around. The sight of beads of sweat that formed across his skin, plus a view of his toned arms and chest that graced Spanner’s eyes.

These feelings deep inside Spanner had morphed into something so much more some time ago, where before there had been a small voice in the back of his mind. A small flutter of the heart here and there. But as of late, it was really starting to leak into his life and stay in his thoughts at nearly all times.

It was extremely distracting. Getting in the way of his own training, his studies and even the free time he had. The more time continued to pass, the more these feelings blossoming within couldn’t be ignored.

He didn’t know what to do, he didn’t even know how to feel about it. This was the first time Spanner had ever felt like this about anyone.

Growing up, Spanner had more than one person confess to him. Some were girls, others were boys, but each and every time Spanner did not feel the same way and ended up rejecting them all. Romance was something that was not a priority of his. He was more focused on climbing the ladder and achieving that coveted “Super A Rank Alchemist” title. To further his studies as well as his skills, improving as an alchemist.

But such feelings affecting him right now, of all times? What exactly had brought these on and with such force, no less.

Though emotions never made any sense. This situation was no exception to that.

Spanner decided the next best course of action was to just go to sleep. He could wallow in and contemplate these feelings all he’d want as he continued to stare at the ceiling, but it would accomplish nothing. Especially at this hour.

This was something for future him to worry about.

Minato’s arms wrapped around Spanner’s neck as he pulled him close. Spanner’s hands slowly made their way to his hips, giving them a gentle squeeze. Their lips brushed together as they closed what little space that was left between them.

Spanner almost became dizzy as his lips were millimeters away from Minato’s, their breathing syncing up. To be this close to Minato… Spanner had wanted this so badly. Thoughts of skin against skin, of countless kisses planted across his body and of holding him close, so close he wouldn’t leave, were constantly on his mind as of late.

And finally it was happening.

It was both thrilling and petrifying at the same time. There was so much he could do. So many ways he could please Minato, make him smile, to make him his.

Alongside all those glorious possibilities, a part of Spanner’s brain screamed about how there were just as many ways he could mess this all up—

But all those worries washed away as Minato kissed him and a hand gripped Spanner’s hair as their lips met. Spanner was enveloped in the heat of Minato’s body as his skin continued to press against his own.

Minato looked at him with a smile. “Don’t worry.” It was almost as if he had read Spanner’s mind. And he kissed him again, deeper this time. A kiss that dripped with need as his fingers were carding through Spanner’s hair.

Spanner’s heart pounded in his chest. It felt like it could almost leap out of his throat at any minute. “Senpai…” he said in-between kisses, his voice breathy. A hand slowly moved up from the hip to the side of Minato’s face, stroking his cheek softly.

He couldn’t believe how he was touching Minato right now. Kissing him, holding him so very close and soon to do even more with him. Just the fact this was all happening was almost too much.

His hands were gentle. Only touching his senpai with the utmost care. And with thought behind each and every action he took. Spanner treated Minato as if he was someone sacred and only to be given the best that was possible. For it was what he deserved and nothing less.

Minato leaned into the touch. He looked back at Spanner with eyes filled with so much softness that Spanner felt he was going to melt right there.

“I’ve wanted this too,” Minato whispered before leaning in to kiss him again. Pressing his tongue against Spanner’s lips as they kissed, Spanner accepting the invitation. Their tongues swirled around each other as Spanner’s hands slid back down to the small of Minato’s back, pulling him even closer than before.

To hear Minato wanted this too… It was a relief, as well as something that emboldened him all the same.

“Senpai, let me make you feel good.” Spanner winced in his head, not sure if that sounded as good spoken out loud as it had in his head moments prior. He wasn’t experienced with any of this, but especially trying to sound sexy.

There was a fire that sparked in Minato’s eyes as he wrapped his arms around Spanner’s neck once more, pulling both of them down onto the bed. Spanner now atop Minato, him pinned between Spanner’s arms.

Spanner could feel his heart ready to jump out of his throat again. His thoughts began to go at breakneck speed. Even with the confidence he showed on the outside, never in a million years did he expect to be above Minato like this.

“I need you, Spanner,” Minato spoke up, bringing Spanner back into the moment. “I even prepared myself for you earlier…” he cooed with a cheeky little smile.

Spanner nodded as he felt his cheeks become red. He wasn’t used to hearing Minato, someone who presented himself in such a professional manner, talk like this, let alone to the thought of Minato playing with himself. Moaning out Spanner’s name, waiting, aching to be fucked by him… But all the same it was so exciting.

He composed himself as he took in a breath. Now wasn’t the time to get too worked up, Spanner wanted to be able to last. Once more he leaned in to kiss Minato and he could feel his smile pressed against his lips.

As Minato wrapped his legs around Spanner’s waist as they continued to kiss, Spanner was determined to give him exactly what he wanted.

And more.

Several hours had passed when the alarm clock blasted out a melody, forcibly waking Spanner up.

His hand found itself back on his chest by his heart. It was pounding. As his eyes darted around aimlessly, seeing his room it dawned on him: it had all been a dream.

The realization was as relieving as it was disappointing. That dream had felt so very real. More than any other he’d had in quite some time. A flush came to his cheeks as the memories of it continued to play back in his head.

Would Minato truly ever be that eager for him in the first place?

And now he had to deal with the fact that these bubbling feelings for Minato had been on his mind so much, now he was having dreams about them…

At some point something had to budge. Would he confess to Minato? Should he confess to Minato? There was the question of whether he would even share these feelings in the first place. And if he did, how would Kyoka feel? Oh god. How would Kyoka feel about this? Would it just be better to tuck away these thoughts in an attempt to make them go away?

Spanner had barely been up for a couple of minutes and the thought of having to deal with all of this just made him want to go back to sleep. He was also feeling strangely cold on top of everything.

As tempting as the thought was, it would be best to start the day. As much as he wanted to just go back to sleep. And then he got up and noticed the mess he’d made both in his pants and his bed.

What a ridiculous joke.

Quickly, Spanner rushed to get new clothes and to clean everything up. Breakfast could wait. Figuring out how to go about his growing attraction to Minato could wait. This took priority right now because he did not want to deal with Kyoka finding out about this.

There was already enough to worry about in regards to Kyoka finding out things in the first place, depending on how he’d go about this situation.

Making a beeline for the bathroom and the cleaning supplies after putting on a change of clothes, Spanner just decided to focus on the current moment for now.

The answer about what to do would show itself to him at some point, given more time and thought.

One would hope so, anyways.

End Notes: When first writing out the dream sequence I didn't realize how horny Dream!Minato was until after the fact. XD But it's my fic + it also works since this fic is about Spanner dealing with having Emotions about Minato pre-relationship + Minato can get it.
