It’s only weird when Nino thinks about it. If he doesn’t think, he can mindlessly pass their relationship off as Nothing Out Of The Ordinary for a few reasons: namely, a) they’re close, and b) Nino is silly (and maybe Ohno is silly as well and that probably counts for something. Maybe).

He tries not to think about it and continues to act the same way around Ohno as he always would. And somehow it works in his brain that if he’s not thinking into it too far, then no one is, and no one will question it. Least of all Ohno; he’s put up with Nino this far, he shouldn’t have a reason not to anymore. (There’s a sense of security in knowing this and Nino thinks maybe he needs this more than he realises).

And at least Nino’s doing what he can to act normal even though his mind has been working overtime as of late shouting strange things at him (you like him), and Nino refuses to believe it even with it repeating over and over in his head (you like him) like some kind of mantra. He’s about had enough of it, to be completely honest (you like him, you like him, you like him).

Still, when Nino thinks about it, he finds one flaw in the workings of his mind: he’s straight. All sexuality questioning gestures aside, Nino knows that he has never been attracted to males, not once. Sure, he may have thought, wow, Aiba is really pretty, on more than one occasion or even, Sho is really damn handsome, but he’s never thought of it like, oh, I really want to do xxx and xxx and... like he finds with Ohno. (Not that he’s admitting it to himself, obviously).

So they’re practising a new song; it’s one of those important times where Nino should be paying full attention and singing as best he can, but somehow he heart is stuck in his throat (really damn) awkwardly and he has trouble getting the words out.

Sho frowns and asks him if something’s up, “This isn’t like you.”

And Nino would deny it to save more questioning if he was completely in control of his voice, but, “Yeah, yeah I guess there’s something,” slips out and he twitches and tries to laugh it off.

Aiba looks over at Nino, scratching his chin in contemplation before running off down to the shop, “I have an idea.”

When he comes back with a skeleton mask, Nino isn’t the only one completely and utterly confused. Aiba grins and slaps the mask on Ohno’s face, clapping in satisfaction. Nino sneaks a glance at Aiba, gnawing on his bottom lip. (He knows, oh god he knows).

Aiba quickly frowns, “Oh wait, unless skeletons turn you on too?”

Nino grabs the nearest not-potentially-life-threatening item he can find (which happens to be a day-to-day planner with an image of an elephant on the front) and throws it at Aiba’s head as Jun bursts into fits of laughter because, “Oh, that’s what it is!”

Nino shoots Jun his dirtiest glare possible as Ohno pulls the mask off, still confused.

Sho pipes up, turning to Ohno, “So basically, he-”

“I like you,” Nino finishes for him, Ohno’s forehead still creased. “As more than a friend,” he continues and waits for the realisation to kick in.

Ohno’s mouth opens and closes a few times, not unlike a fish, before he finally manages to say, “Oh,” and then, “Really?” after a few more seconds.

(Nino really likes the fact that he’s surrounded by all his band mates who are laughing their asses off. No really, it makes the mood especially wonderful, and totally compliments Ohno’s amazing response).

Another minute passes before the real meaning seems to kick in, and Ohno blushes furiously, clenching and unclenching his hands incessantly. Aiba prods him in the side when Ohno’s eyes stop blinking altogether. Ohno squeaks and jumps slightly, before running off. Sighing, Nino smacks Jun over the head to shut him up, and then chases after Ohno.
