“Masaki~…” Jun called with one of his hands was holding his briefcase while the other tried to do his necktie. “Masaki~!!” he called louder this time.
A figure came rushing towards Jun from the kitchen and stopped as he reached him. “What?” Aiba asked.
“Fix my tie, please~…” Jun said lovingly.
“Hai~ hai~…” Aiba went closer to Jun and started to fix his necktie. “Ne, Jun…”
“Yeah~?”
“… too close…” Aiba pushed Jun away before turning back towards the kitchen to resume what he was doing. But before he could get any further, Jun grabbed his elbow.
“Sorry~… won’t do that again~” Jun smiled widely.
“Yeah, right…” Aiba smiled before releasing himself from Jun. “… and quit with the Masaki~…”
“Hai~…” Jun said playfully.
Aiba went back to the kitchen and shouted from there. “Breakfast’s ready anyway… Toma’s not awake yet…?”
It’s been 6 months since the incident on the rooftop of the hospital and Aiba had been discharged from the hospital. After the incident, Jun and Toma had somehow settled their little misunderstanding and now getting together. Jun was accepted to work at a company as an ordinary salaryman, Toma still help at his uncle’s store while Aiba still searching for a job.
“Nope…” Jun said as he went to the kitchen as well. “I think we overdid it last night…” he smirked.
Aiba frowned to the words. “Please… just spare me from the details ok…”
“What details?” Toma who was just coming out of the bedroom suddenly asked.
“Nothing…” Jun answered as he went to his boyfriend. They exchanged morning greetings before their mouths were technically latched together.
“And why do you guys have to sleep here anyway?” Aiba sighed.
“Aw~ don’t be jealous, Aiba-chan…” Toma said as soon as they broke their kiss. “I’ll kiss you too…” he reached out his hands to Aiba only to be push away by him.
“Don’t go near me with that stinking breath of yours…”
“But Jun-chan doesn’t mind…” Toma pouted earning a chuckled from Jun.
“Why do you guys have to sleep here anyway?” Aiba said with a frowned. “It’s not like you don’t have a place to stay…”
After Jun moved out from his apartment that his parent were staying, he lived with Toma but not until recently when the two of them crashed over at Aiba’s house. it started when they decide to call a party every weekend at Aiba’s house. The two just decided for themselves to stay over at Aiba’s house occupying Ohno’s abandoned bedroom without consulting with Aiba first.
Not that he didn’t like it though with Yokoyama moving and all, he really thought he needed some company. But seeing the two in lovey dovey mode all the time made him a little uncomfortable. He always had to turn to the other way or leave the room when the two started to get intimate.
“Aw~ we didn’t want you to feel alone, wont we now, Jun-chan…”
“Hey~ didn’t I tell you to stop calling me Jun-chan…” Jun said playfully.
“You both are lucky that Ohno didn’t take all his stuff away…” Aiba complained “… or you two will be sleeping on the floor… ”
“We can always share your bed~” Toma said while batting his eyelashes seductively earning a glare from Aiba and a smack from Jun.

Aiba stepped out from the bus with a paper in one hand while a bottle of mineral water in the other. He took a gulp from the bottle before continuing on his way. He took a seat on a bench
“Hello~ Aiba Masaki speaking…” he greeted the caller respectively, expecting it from any company he previously went interviewed to.
“Hello, Aiba-chan…”
“Oh- Oh-chan?” Aiba stood abruptly as he was surprise to hear the voice he hadn’t been hearing for a long time “… is that really you?”
“Yup, one and only…” Ohno chuckled.
“I miss you, Oh-chan…” Tears started forming in his eyes but Aiba didn’t even bother to wipe it off until he felt someone looking at him weirdly. He bowed apologically to the man beside him who was shocked with his sudden move before disappearing at to the less occupied area.
“I know… we miss you too…”
“Ah~ Nino’s there too?”
“Of course I’m here…” another voice came and a chuckled been heard. Apparently Ohmiya were using loud speaker so that both can speak to Aiba at the same time. “… Where could I be then?” Nino asked sarcastically.
“I miss you too, Nino…” Aiba answered knowing the hidden meaning behind Nino’s words. “Are you guys calling me to tell that you’re coming home?”
“Nope, Satoshi just manage to get a permanent job and with my sister finally settles here, we’re thinking of staying for a few years before we can come back to Japan…”
“Oh~ ok…” Aiba said with hinted disappointment.
“Don’t be sad Aiba-chan… we’ll see each other when the time comes…” Ohno assured him before being cut by Nino.
“Anyway, that’s not why we call you…” Nino said.

Toma and Jun had promised to meet and had lunch together since Aiba was busy in search for a job.
“Jun…”
“What?”
“I’m worried about Aiba-chan”
“Why?”
“I heard things…”
“Eh? Like what?”
“There are times late at night I heard sobbing coming from his room…” Toma stopped and looked at Jun’s face hesitating whether to continue with his story. Seeing Jun looking back at him with concern, he continued, “… i’ve kinda cant stop myself from eardropping him and I notice something… each and everytime I’ll hear this name… SHO…”
Jun twitched a little from the information he just received. “So Aiba did miss Sho that much…” he said silently.

“Anyway, that’s not why we call you…” Nino said.
“Eh~ It’s not? so what is it?” Aiba asked.
“Can we speak to Sho?”
“Eh!?” Aiba was surprise by the sudden request but he managed to form a sentence in time. “He- he’s not here now…”
“Where is he then?” Nino asked sensing something was off.
“I-”
“I think he’s working, Kazu… it’s in the middle of the week…” Aiba couldn’t be more grateful to Ohno than this. He didn’t want them who were a thousand miles across the ocean felt worried over him. He told himself that he had to settle his own problem himself.
“So he’s there in Japan, right?” Nino asked Aiba for confirmation.
“Ye- Yes…”
-See, I’ve told you that’s not him…- Aiba heard Ohno said and a sound of disapproved coming from the line.
-That can’t be it, you saw him too…-
-But if that’s him, why didn’t he respond when we call him?-
-I don’t know, maybe he didn’t hear us…-
-Aiba-chan has told us that Sho’s save back there in Japan. So that person must be someone else that looks like him…-
“Anyway, Aiba-chan…” Aiba was startled when Ohno suddenly calling for him as he was earsdropping the couple. “... Have you live well?”
“Yes…”
“Glad to hear that then…” Aiba can imagine Ohno’s smile just by listening to his voice. “I’ll call you later, ok… I’ll hang up now…”
Aiba stared at the phone in his hand. Is that why Jun didn’t manage to contact Sho, because Sho is somewhere abroad? Should I go search for him? Should I tell Jun about this?
Aiba shook his head to clear his mind on this matter. No, he needed to stop thinking about Sho. He promised himself that he didn’t want to have anything to do with someone who didn’t even bother to be by his side when he in most needed. He tightened his grip on the phone determinedly before continuing on his way to where his next job interview will take place.
