**********************************************************
“I’m serious here” she exclaimed desperately. “Don’t you believe me?”
Pi looked disinterest as he took another sip of his coffee “This is the thing Meisa” Pi paused for awhile before continuing “I’ve known Jin for more than 10 years while I’ve only met you few months back when both of you started dating. It’s not that I don’t believe you, it just I believe in Jin.”
Meisa pouted, frowning a bit too much “What proof do you need? Do you want to wait until they start kissing each other? The way they looked at each other during the rehearsal was already a give a way.”
“It was just a rehearsal and besides, Jin’s as straight as the lamp post” Pi added with a smirked.
“Well, that was what I thought about you to, but I’m wrong aren’t I?” Meisa crossed her arms mockingly.
Pi sighed as he stared at her “Let’s just assume that I believe your bizarre story, what you want me to do?”
A soft wicked smile formed on her perfect glossy lips “I’m not giving up that easily on Jin and I have my own plans. But before I reveal anything, I need your commitment in this.”
*End of flashback*
********************************
“Do you have a crush on Kazuya?” Pi asked bluntly.
Jin who was fidgeting was taken back by the question directed to him “Of course not. He’s just a dancer.”
Pi shook his head “A very talented, good looking and sexy dancer.”
The other guy smiled nervously and nodded. He can’t believe Meisa actually told Pi such thing. Sure he there was this funny feeling he felt towards the guy, but it’s definitely not a crush. Yes he admits that he can’t take his eyes of him at the amusement park, but that was just because he was so cute in that bunny costume. He’s just a mere cupid that got a bit attached to the guy because they have been spending lots of time working together. Definitely, nothing more than that.
“Are sure Jin?” Pi asked again as he took a bite full of his bento.
Jin nodded vigorously to assure his best friend that there was nothing to worry about “You don’t have to worry Pi. I don’t steal my best friend’s girl, or guy.” Beside, he’s straight, he thought to himself.
Pi smiled sweetly “That’s what I thought. Besides, I doubt you have to create such reason to break up with Meisa.”
“What do you mean by that?” Jin asked curiously as he finally got the energy to open up his bento.
“Well, you’ve gone through this dating and break-up phase with so many girls already. All with the same statement ‘you are better off me’ or ‘things won’t work out’. I don’t see Meisa need a special treatment with this excuse” Pi explained earnestly.
“Thanks Pi” Jin replied thankfully.
The other guy shook his head “It’s not a big deal Jin. We’ve been best friends forever; I won’t allow such bimbo ruin what we have.”
The older guy finally calm down “But I really didn’t expect she’ll go all the way and met up with you.”
“I guess, she’s desperate. But you know what; I’m not really surprise if you fell for Kazuya” Pi spoke between his chewing.
Jin looked up again and stared at his friend “What that supposed to mean?”
“Well, even a Love-God like me fell for him, what a mere mortal like you able to do to defy his pheromones” Pi spoke proudly in a stage-like performance.
“Oh god, enough with the bullshit and finish your food will you” Jin shook his head desperately.
Pi let out a merry laughter before added seriously “I am serious Jin. If you did fell for Kazuya, all I ask is a fair competition between us. Let me know you are interested and let the best man win.”
Again Jin was dumbfounded by Pi and all he managed was a weak nod before continuing with his food.
******************************
Ryo brought Kame to one of his favorite lunch spot. The one Pi or Jin were not aware of just in case they decided to eat out as well. They had their lunch in comfortable silence. They went straight back to the agency afterwards but Ryo was using a longer route, trying to figure out the proper conversation he need to have with the guy.
As he parked his car next to Pi’s, he exhaled and finally spoke out “I’m not sure what’s wrong with you but I just want to let you know that I care for my best friends a lot and it extended to their love interest as well.”
Kame nodded softly looking straight, avoiding Ryo’s piercing eyes “I know. I haven’t done anything wrong. But then again, I’m not so sure either.”
There was such sadness when he uttered his last words that Ryo bit his lips trying to get hold of himself from saying another mix messages “I don’t mean like that. Not at all! I just want to let you know that, because you are important to Jin and Pi, I’m aware as your existence.”
Kame finally looked at Ryo, but with a confused frowned “You mean like making sure I don’t hurt your friends?”
Ryo let out a frustrated sighed “Just forget it, will you. I don’t think you’ll get it anyway.” He turned the ignition off.
Kame looked down again “Sorry” he muttered almost in whispers. Then he took out something from his pocket and held it out to Ryo “This is for you. I bought it at the amusement park and thought that it will be a nice gift for you. To thank, for the ride and the clothes that I borrow the other day.”
Ryo took a peek at the small turtle figurine key-chain on the guy palm and sighed softly “This is why I don’t like you.”
But unfortunately, Kame heard it and slowly closed his palms “I’m sorry, I thought you’ll like it.”
Then Ryo quickly snatched it from the younger guy hand and instantly hook the key-chain to his car key. “We better make our move before Pi sent the search party” he exclaimed as he opened his door and walked straight to the elevator, leaving Kame chasing him slightly. Kame finally his facial muscles relax and smiled.
*******************************
“Okay guys that’s a wrap” the choreographer announced and clapped his hands. “I’ll see you guys tomorrow morning as early as 8am at Tokyo Dome.”
All the guys slumped themselves near the bench and trying to flex their muscles. Jin didn’t join them as he was having a final discussion with the technical team for tomorrow arrangement. Kame was secretly thankful for it as he doubts he’ll be able to focus on his dance with his heart clutching painfully.
“Ne Kame, want to have a drink with the others?” Koki asked as he passed his drinking bottle to the younger one. Maru and Junno waved goodbye saying they’ll head to the shower first, leaving the three alone.
Kame took the bottle and had a sipped to wet his throat “No, I don’t think so. I want to stay for awhile to work on the last part a bit more.”
“Of course you should not, you’ll strain yourself” Ueda interrupted with a concern eyes. Both Ueda and Koki knew exactly why Kame acted such way.
“But I don’t want to make any mistake tomorrow” Kame replied softly.
Koki squatted next to the small guy and put his arms around him “You won’t. You never did.”
Kame shook his head “I can’t take the risk. I don’t want Akanishi to hate me for ruining his concert.”
The younger guy statement made the two older guys gapping. Then Koki finally announced “Then let us stay behind.” Ueda nodded in agreement.
“Oh no, please don’t. I’ll feel guilty if you guys did” Kame panicked. “Please enjoy yourself.”
“No we can’t let you work out all by yourself when all of us go out to have a rest. We are your seniors, remember” Ueda added sternly.
“That’s why you have to leave me here. I’m new and need lots of practice. I cant live with myself if I did anything to ruin the show” Kame added stubbornly. “But if you guys stay, I can’t even focus and work out. Please Koki-senpai, Ueda-senpai, just let me practice another hour.”
The other two perfectly know that when Kame used the seniority term between them, he’s serious and definitely won’t change his mind. Then after few more minutes arguing, Ueda and Koki left the studio, frustrated.
“Something is definitely wrong between Kame and Jin” Koki announced to himself.
Ueda nodded “Yup, but what can we do. This is the first time Jin reacted this cold towards anyone, for whatever reason it may be.”
Koki sighed and slowly fished out his phone “I can’t leave Kame-chan just like that.”
“What are you going to do?” Ueda looked at Koki who was smirking while he type a message.
*******************************
Kame was all by himself working out on his solo performance with Jin. He was afraid that he could not maintain the professionalism needed and affected by his emotion. That was the real reason he wanted to practice the movement.
But unfortunately, he can’t take Jin out of his mind. The dance that they share few days ago when they were caught by Pi and Meisa was vividly stored in his mind. And every time Jin entered, he crumbled.
But being a stubborn dancer, he refused to give in. He stood up again and repeated the same movement again and again. The pain on his feet was overwhelming but he kept telling himself that it’s all in his head.
As he collapsed and about to repeat the movement again, a pair of hand suddenly jolted him back to reality “Kame, what are you doing?”
Kame turned around abruptly and almost lost his balance. But the pair of hands that surprised him, managed to get hold of his waist. As he stood directly facing the source of his sorrow, he felt his heart screams “Akanishi-kun, I’m sorry I didn’t hear you coming.”
Jin felt his palm hurts when his fingers dig his flesh when the younger guy called his formal name. “What are you doing dancing this late Kame-chan” he said softly trying to calm himself as he noticed the painful looked casted on Kame’s beautiful face, perfectly aware that he’s the reason for it.
“Oh, I’m just practicing the solo. I can’t afford to make any mistake” he said softly looking every where except at the person standing right in front of him.
“Let’s go home Kame-chan. It’s really late and I don’t want to see you sick” Jin replied tenderly, holding the urge to grab the younger guy into his arms and apologize profusely for his earlier selfishness that hurt Kame.
Kame shook his head “It’s okay Akanishi-kun, I can take the cab. Besides, I still have not masters the move.”
“Are you always this stubborn?” Jin asked as he grabbed Kame’s wrist.
The younger guy was surprised by Jin’s action and tried to free himself “Excuse me!”
“I’m sending you home” he announced as he dragged Kame to the bench for the younger guy to pack his stuff with his free hand as Jin refused to let go of Kame.
Kame tried to fight, but the older guy was way too strong for his fatigue state “Why are you doing this to me?” he muttered softly as he packed his belonging. Then he felt a tear dropped to the ground.
Jin saw it and instantly pulled the smaller guy into his arms “I’m sorry Kame, please forgive me for being such an asshole today. Please call me Jin again. Please smile at me again.” Jin whispered into Kame’s ears as he soothed his back softly.
Kame was shocked but he could not hold back the tears anymore “I don’t understand.”
“I know. Forgive me for dragging you into my mess up world and burst at you like I did today” Jin replied as he moved his hand upward and massaged Kame’s nape. “Are we friends again? Will you call me Jin again?”
Kame stayed still in Jin’s embrace for few minutes, till he finally responded to the requests with a weak nod.
******************************
Unfortunately, the whole scenes were witnessed by Jin’s best friend, Yamashita Tomohisa. But unlike the first time he caught the two in such suspicious situation, he didn't barge in. Pi walked away from the studio with his hand clutched into a firm fist trying to get hold of himself.
