Previous The next few days were ‘entertaining’ to say the least for Nino. Following his inner voice's smug advice, the young man tried to approach Ohno in different ways - just, you know, to find out what the older man thought of him… and if he got to grope him a bit more, well he wasn’t complaining if Ohno wasn’t.
He was extra helpful in the house chores and got in the habit of accompany Ohno, who had resumed his hobby of fishing as weather got warmer, in his fishing escapades. Both men usually spent their noon near the small river, now showing sings of thawing, situated behind the barn.
Once or twice, Nino tried to initiate a conversation about his new found feelings towards the older man; but he was always stopped by a sudden attack of shyness and uncertainty because Ohno, in spite of not having shown signs of being bothered by Nino’s recent overload of affection - more often than not simply accommodating himself in Nino’s embrace, leaning on the younger man’s side thoughtlessly - hasn’t shown sings of encouraging them either.
Lately, he often caught the older man looking at him as if he was lost in his thoughts, a pensive and a bit sad expression on his face. What was more, Nino noticed, worried, a recent tendency of Ohno's to distance himself from him. He joked with Ohno, trying to find out what he was thinking, but the older man just shrugged his shoulders and changed the topic.

“Hmmm, Nino smells nice,” murmured Ohno, nuzzling his nose against Nino’s neck.
“I’m glad you think that,” replied Nino, steadying the staggering man before he fell down from his chair. “Although I was hoping for something a bit different when I asked you what you think about me.”
Nino sighed and put his arm around the waist of the inebriated man. Who would have guessed that Ohno would get drunk with just a few beers?
When Nino had heard about the party they were going to have, in honor of celebrating Becky’s birthday, he had had the bright idea of making Ohno drunk, offering him a few beers to get him to loosen up a bit. Maybe this way, he would be able to find out what the older man’s feelings about him were.
However, his plan backfired when Ohno had passed from tipsy and talkative to completely drunk and almost mute in a matter of a few minutes.
“Darn! Why couldn’t the party end and everybody goes off to bed before he got too drunk to answer my questions?” thought Nino with a frown.
“Nino…” murmured Ohno, slowly moving his hand around Nino’s waist. Nino couldn’t repress a shudder when he felt Ohno’s soft lips grazing his neck.
“Wha-“
“I-I have a secret,” the intoxicated man confessed shyly, “… about you… or... maybe it's a-about me,” he added, confused, frowning.
Nino’s ears perked up hearing those words, maybe Ohno was going to tell him about his feelings?
“But… I shouldn’t tell… shouldn’t reveal my secret,” Ohno rambled on. He shook his head drowsily, as if he was trying to clear it.
“Don’t worry Oh-chan, you can tell me your secret and I’ll never reveal it to anybody,” Nino assured the other man, holding him more securely and patting his back softly.
Ohno moved a few centimetres away, enough to be able to look at Nino’s supportive face. He blinked a few times and scrunched his nose cutely, pondering Nino’s answer.
Finally, he seemed to reach a conclusion. “O.k.” he breathed, leaning against Nino’s body again. He put his head in the crook of the younger man’s neck and sighed contentedly.
Nino waited, holding his breath.
“I-I think…”
“Yes?”
Ohno’s body relaxed against Nino, “I-think I’m… I’m… I’m in…”
“Yeees?” Nino didn't dare to breath. Finally he would know!
“…”
The nervous boy frowned slightly.
“… Oh-chan?” Nino waited a few seconds, but Ohno didn’t reply. Confused by his silence, Nino carefully pushed Ohno away and was rewarded by a soft puff of breath coming from Ohno’s partly opened mouth, followed by a light snore.
The intoxicated man had fallen asleep.
