To all my readers: I am so sorry for the extremely long break I've been taking. Work was running wild, our house is one big construction area right now and I really didn't have the time to finish anything. D: I'm extremely sory about that, because I miss writing so much! I'll be realistic, August still has me in a tight grip, I will try to update both my runing series before the month runs out. Starting September everything will be much more at ease again, so I will fully be back then. :D
Intro: Kamenashi Kazuya is one of Japans most famous baseball players. He has a huge fanbase, including one dedicated fanboy, Nishikido Ryo, whose biggest wish is to meet his admired hero. Being a fanboy is not easy, though. Plus, for a man with such a number of crazy fans, how could he possibly notice a plain single guy. Should Ryo just give up?
Ryo felt a bit weird. At the same time he was totally nervous. People often teased him about it, but he just had the biggest crush on this guy. Kamenashi Kazuya. One of the current top players. He had never been too much into baseball - until he had seen this guy on TV. He was… He was just cool. The way he could read every pitcher, the way he threw himself into the field to take a base, the way he touched the peak of his cap before a move when he was nervous. His bringing eyes, his blazing smile. He knew it was ridiculous, but he still couldn’t help the fluttery feeling in his stomach. He would get to see him. Meet him. The fact that other than himself there were only girls waiting didn’t matter much. And then everything was forgotten as the door in front of them opened and Kame, as the fans kept calling him, actually came out. The girls went wild immediately, rushing towards him, touching and tugging until security got them to a more comfortable distance again, they squealed and waved and suddenly Ryo felt totally in the wrong place. Yes, he really adored this guy and he would love to see him, or shake hands. This was too much, though. He was not the type to get so hyper and worked up and how would the other possibly see him in the huge mess of fangirls, who were fighting for his attention. With a deep sigh he turned around and left as discretely as he could.

“Aw, so you didn’t get your kiss?” Jin teased with a grin.
“Shut up, fat-ass,” Ryo complained, throwing a pillow at his friend.
“I’m not fat,” Jin explained, peeling the pillow from his face just to throw it right back, “I am big. Big is good.”
“Only if you’re big there,” Ryo retorted.
“Wanna check?” Jin suggested, thrusting his hips out once.
“Oh, stop it already,” the smaller man, throwing the pillow again.
“Right, right,” Jin waved him off. “You only care about the size of your baseball hero.”
“Not true,” Ryo pouted.
“You know,” Jin mused, “if you want to get to see him so bad, you should check out a training, not a game. Games are always crowded with fans. If you choose a random day, you might get lucky.”
Ryo thought about that. “Probably…”
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Ryo kept looking left and right. Even though the area wasn’t closed he felt like he was not allowed. The stadium was close to empty and he thought anyone who saw him would simply tell him to leave, because there wouldn’t be a game on that day. Much to his surprise he could easily walk right through to the grounds and watch the training on the training grounds. A few other stray people were there too, most probably tourists, who just happened to be in town and wanted to see the stadium. He kept standing there, watching on as focus shifted through various skills and didn’t even notice time flying by as he simply admired the figure of Kame doing his job. A good hour later it seemed the training had ended and for a moment Ryo considered his options, then he decided to go and wait, not right in front of the dressing rooms, but rather on the grounds in front of the stadium. He saw most of the players leaving after a while, one or two later. When the main stuff started to wrap up, he frowned. Kame had not come out yet. How come? He sighed, shaking his head. It had been stupid of him to think he could meet this guy so easily. Most probably Kame had come with his own car and left through the garage and would not even use the gate. He decided he had made enough of a fool of himself and made to leave.
“Hey, are you stalking me, or running away from me?”
Ryo turned around - and froze. There he was. The man he’d been waiting for.
“You were there the other night, after the last game, weren’t you?” Kame asked, coming closer.
Ryo couldn’t help the blush that came to his face.
Oh my god, he saw me?
“So, what’s your game?” Kame wanted to know, coming to a hold right in front of Ryo.
“I, er… I…” Ryo stuttered, blushing even more. “I admire your expertise.”
Kame’s eyes softened as a smile came to his face. “Thank you,” he said happily. “I guess it’s not easy. Being a fan, I mean. You know, when you’re a guy.”
“My friends always tease me about it,” Ryo admitted.
“That’s mean,” Kame decided with a frown. “Just because you have a favourite player?”
Suddenly Ryo had to look away. How could he explain that in reality it was more than just admiration that he felt? Kame would probably laugh at him. How could your crush over someone you didn’t even know? Or worse even he would think Ryo was a pervert.
“Well, I… I…” He sighed, shaking his head. Once again words failed him, but what he didn’t expect was that Kame understood and read his silence and nervousness correctly.
When next Ryo checked, he blinked in surprise, because Kame’s face was also tainted a delicious shade of pink.
“Oh,” Kame muttered, obviously nervous all of a sudden. “I… wow… Sorry,” he said apologetically, “I’m not used to… this kind of thing.”
“Oh god, this is too embarrassing,” Ryo decided. “I’m sorry for disturbing you after finishing your work. I… I think what you do is really cool and… I’ll always be your fan. Otsukare-sama desu.”
With that Ryo turned around. He had to get away from there. However, as he started to walk back towards the metro station, he suddenly felt a tugging on his sleeve.
“You know,” Kame’s voice behind him sounded, “it happens a lot that fans come up to me and tell me they like me, or are crushing on me. I have to admit, I don’t quite understand it. I mean, we don’t even know each other.”
“I know,” Ryo agreed. “So, just forget it and…”
“Do I have to?” Kame asked. “I mean, even if it’s illogical - does that mean it’s impossible? I mean, just because you don’t know me… yet. Isn’t it possible that you also like me when you know me?”
“It might be,” Ryo muttered.
“So, why shouldn’t we give it a try?” Kame suggested.
Ryo turned around to look at him. “What - seriously?”
“Depends,” Kame told him. “Do you mean it? I mean, do you really want something… deeper? Or do you just want to brag in front of your friends how you got to lay the baseball kid?”
Ryo grinned at him. “I’ll boast about it day and night.”
“Really?”
“Not really.”
Kame laughed. “How about a drink before we talk about bed-time activities?”
“That would be cool.”

“Oh my god, I can’t believe you are both so simple,” Jin groaned.
“Shut up, fat-ass,” Kame shot at him.
“Hey,” Jin complained. “Tell that conceited boyfriend of yours that when you’re new in a crowd it’s a good idea to try to appeal.”
“Oh, he’s appealing enough for me,” Ryo decided, wrapping his arms around Kame’s neck and giving him a deep and thorough kiss.
“Oh dear,” Jin sighed, making a face. “You will keep presenting him to me like that, won’t you?”
Ryo let go of his lover to grin at his friend. “At least until you get yourself laid again.”
“Fantastic,” Jin scoffed. “Hey, Kame-kun, you wouldn’t happen to know the phone number of a cheerleader?”
Kame, however, already found his mouth busy again, as he and Ryo enjoyed a passionate kiss.
“Okay, this is it. I’ll go and visit Pi. Just don’t do it on my couch,” Jin requested. Then he revised. “At least put something on it that I can wash.”
With that he left, letting the two of them enjoy themselves and he couldn’t help the smile coming to his face. Ryo had his baseball hero. And he could still sell the videos his sex-cam taped.
