Note: Dunno what to say really. Starting to write after such a long time. Hopefully people will enjoy. This is mostly unbeta'd so please excuse my grammar and punctuations. I'll start work on my other stories soon...

“Ok A-ki look here. Now tilt your head a bit, good boy”
The male in the middle of the huge gothic dungeon setting tilted his head slightly. On a closer look his eyes seemed really sleepy as if bored by the entire setting. The sweat that currently glistened on his chest slowly flowed down his chest, pausing to tilt over the peak of his nipple, before continuing on its journey south.
He adamantly ignored the looks of raw lust that many of the people in the shoot were directing at him, preferring only to concentrate on his character. After the last click a soft sigh of relief was released from the tempting pink lips.
At the age of twenty two, he was the top model of the cut throat fashion industry. Anyone who was everyone knew of the sensation called A-ki. He was discovered by an old man playing baseball with his middle school friends. After chasing him and harassing his parents, he was finally allowed to make his grand entrance into the fashion industry at the age of fourteen, and since then he hasn’t looked back.
A voice calling his name suddenly brought him out of his reverie. It was Mr. River his manager who was calling.
“Is everything alright Akihito? You look a bit frazzled. Would you like to take a short rest?” River always was a worrywart.
Shaking his head he replied “Not really. I’m fine, just can’t stand the heat in the studio, besides my class is in an hour so I really can’t afford to take a break. Two more weeks then I am free for good”.
Smiling River replied “That’s good to hear. Anyways, I wanted to talk to you about the ad campaign for Authentique international. Seems that their campaign will actually take place in Japan this year. Are you sure you are willing to take it? We can still cancel the contract if you say so…” River trailed of unsure.
If there was something the thirty year old man knew it was that this contract would make his charge one of the hottest models in the world. The brand was known for picking models with star potential, and anyone in the industry knew that once you became their brand ambassador you had it made. When Akihito agreed to the contract River was quite happy, now he wasn’t too sure.
Relocating because of work was something that every model went through once of twice in their career. But moving to a different country for two whole years, and that without training purposes was bound to be hard on anyone, especially on Akihito who hasn’t been to Japan since he was a little baby. But then again the boy had an extremely positive personality. Whatever the circumstances, you could always count on his stubborn attitude to let him through the challenge and emerge victorious.
He looked once again at the boy and let himself remember that fateful spring day…
It was right after he graduated college and got the job on the Exstatic modeling industry. Being a novice he wasn’t sure what type of person he had to handle, but one thing he was confident about was his ability to cope with any given situation. So with a positive attitude and a cheerful smile he went to greet his first charge.
He should’ve realized that fate indeed worked in mysterious ways, for in front of him stood the most beautiful boy he ever had the pleasure on laying his eyes on. The boy was slim, with slight curves in all the right places giving him a feminine look. His skin was porcelain, with a slight hint of gold mixed in it. Silver blond hair, straight nose, slightly curved chin, and luscious pink lips complimented his over all image.
However, the most striking feature of the youth happened to be his warm hazel eyes. The fire burning in the depths of the eyes was enough to capture and keep anyone’s attention, and he was certainly not immune to it. Clearing his throat he extended his hand in a greeting.
“Akihito I presume? My name is Shane River. From now onwards I will be your manager, if you ever need to know anything about modeling free feel to ask me about it. Since this is my first job, I hope we can both work well together.”
The boy gave him a perplexed look. After what seemed like forever the boy tilted his head and shyly touched his hand. A jolt of electricity passed through his system in the momentary contact, and he vowed from that time onwards that nothing and no one would ever hurt his precious angel, for it was at that time he fell in love with the boy.
Eight years later his love still continued to grow, but his courage faltered as Akihito blossomed more and more into a beauty.
“It’s alright River, s’nuthin I can’t handle. In case you forgot my mother is Japanese, so I do have some Japanese blood in me. As for the language, don’t sweat it, ma made sure I knew it better than most of em purebloods, so I got that part down. In fact I can’t wait to start on this assignment.”
The fluttering in his stomach went largely unnoticed by Akihito, as he continued to dream of his photography classes in Tokyo U, never suspecting how unexpectedly his life will change because of them…
