Summary: jealousy could make the ugliest face even on the cutest guy on earth
“Stop it!” an irritated voice finally bringing those two out of their own mind, but I can hear a slight of jealousy from the voice, not just a mere irritation. I quickly found a new theme to avoid the tense atmosphere that suddenly appeared after that small ‘rehearsal’ they did. Glad we all been in the same boat of showbiz for nearly 16 years, the members quickly pick up my clue and we did the games professionally.
So when the cameras were no longer on us, I looked over our plus one to him. Just as I thought, he wiped the corner of his eyes briefly, pretending to wipe a sweat that was never been on his smooth face. A pang of guilt bit me for a second but again, it wasn’t a blame that I could put on anyone, I couldn’t blame them, or him, it wasn’t anyone fault of who fall in love with who, but jealousy could make the ugliest face even on the cutest guy on earth as my band mate beside me. It was just how love works. I understand that, and I bet he also understand it.
“I’m fine Sho, stop following me would you?” there, there’s the irritation tone that I wanted to hear. I laughed a little, it wasn’t surprising me at all how my beloved little man could read me clearly. The good news was when irritation come, means jealousy or anger had faded away.
“I don’t understand what you mean? I just need to go to the restroom.” I tapped his back lightly, noting myself to check if he still went to the chiropractic for his back problem or not. He huffed as my answer.
“I’m not going to cry that easily you know.” He slowed down to walk beside me. People might found it strange to see two men walk with a hand around each other, but if you’re an Arashi member especially when you walk with a Ninomiya Kazunari, it will take as usual sight or even expected to be. I held him closer to me as we were getting into the Arashi’s green room.
I knew he won’t cry that easily, I knew he is stronger than his appeared to be, but that won't stop me from worrying, not when the wound is still freshly opened. The wound that stayed there when our leader admitted his life with our youngest member, not only surprising, but I remembered how Nino crumpled after that and stayed in the state for more than four years now. I had learned faster how the idolization I used to get from the youngest had swift to our leader, along with his love to the guy. I’ve lost and rather accept it gracefully.
I knew how leader and Jun had to tone down their appearance together so that no one would see behind our closed door, but I really can’t blame them to crave their freedom to show their feeling to each other. Today just happen to be one of it, a day when riida showed his jealousy clearly and Jun’s attempt to calm his lover, a harmless skit that should not affect anyone. But we are wrong obviously. As we opened the door to our green room, I pulled Nino closer.
“Shall we drink tonight?” I didn’t wait for his answer but dragged him away from the room, from the sofa where our leader ‘practicing’ his kissing scene with Jun. I wished to spare Nino from the sight but who am I kid, Nino is an observant as always, of course, he had seen it. I didn’t look at him, afraid to see another heartache, but this time it was Nino that spare me.
“Ok, only if you’re paying.” Nino snuggled beside me firmly, knowing we both would need to entertain ourselves tonight, free from all aches, we can back to function normally the next day.
