20 October 2006
Kame stood near the fences, looking at the airplanes departs from the airport. He told himself not to come but he eventually did even though this was miles away. This is more than enough, Kame whispered.
I could not bear to say goodbye in front of you. I’m afraid I won’t let you go. Hell, I’m sure I won’t even let you leave from my sight, not to mention letting go of our hold. If I sent you off, I would make a fool out of myself, probably pleading with you to not go, to not leave me like you did now.
Yesterday night was the best, Jin. I will remember that special night for these few months to come. From today onwards, I have to try to be independent again. These nights will be very lonely without you, it will be cold without your warmth against mine, and that my house will be so silent without your voice lightening up the sullen atmosphere. I will be so incomplete without you, Jin.
“I’m not going to send you off tomorrow. I’m not coming.” Kame whispered, looking at his lover teary-eyed.
“I understand. I can’t force you, can I?” he replied, somehow he was hoping that Kame would change his mind; he wanted to see him for one last time tomorrow morning.
“No- you can’t force me. I’m really not coming. I’m not going to change my mind. Unless you want me to make a scene there, begging you not to go. If I- I go, I’m afraid- I would not let you go. I don’t want that to happen. I can’t possibly be selfish to you. I can’t do that.” Kame said, his voice breaking, avoiding looking at his lover in the eye.
Lifting his face up, Jin lovingly gazes at his boyfriend “Hey, its okay. I understand. This is not a final goodbye. I will come back to you. Don’t worry.”
Nodding his head in silence, Kame cling to his lover tightly, he didn’t have any choice but to let him go when the sun rises. Why must the day ends so quickly? Why must morning comes, can’t we have the night forever to us?
Though he gave his lover assurance that he believed him but deep down inside, there were thousands of doubts in his heart. So many what ifs-
“Kame, you have to believe me. There is no one else that could ever replace you. You will be my one and only one. Believe our love.” Jin knew him well enough to know what he is probably thinking now at this moment of time.
Those sentences touched him real hard, they were so powerful that he break down, crying even harder.
Wiping a single tear, Kame looked at that one particular airplane taking off; his heart told him so that it was Jin’s flight.
“I’ll be waiting, Jin. I’ll wait.” He stared at it till it disappeared through the thick of clouds.
His lips formed a smile as he took one last gaze at the sky.
“Jin, all the best!” he thought as he walked away from the scene.

31 December 2006
Kame arrived at KAT-TUN’s dressing room, today all of the debuted Johnnys are going to perform a New Year Concert 2006 to 2007 in Tokyo Dome and he was one of the earliest among his members, he wouldn’t want to be in a rush in the very last minute.
Better be prepared.
“Have fun doing the concert! I can’t be there with you but remember I’m always there in your heart.” Kame smiled at the video message his lover sent.
5.30pm.
“What time is it there now?” Kame thought as he counted the time difference.
“Jin! Go back to sleep! What were you thinking messaging me at 2.30 in the morning?!! But thanks anyway, I feel so encouraged. Love you.” Kame messaged back, hoping that his lover would listen to him.
“I love you too, sweetheart. And whatever you say, I’m going back to sleep now. Ganbatte!!!” Realizing that would be the final message from Jin today, he placed his cell phone in his bag.
“Kame? Wow, you’re always early.” He turned to see Ueda standing in the doorway.
Kame smiled.
“Looking at your face, I know Jin must have contacted you today. Am I right? You look so happy.” A smile lit on his face.
“Yeah, he sent me a video message at 2.30 am! Can you believe that?” Kame excitedly told his friend, this was the first message he received for the week since Jin was usually busy too.
Ueda smiled, happy to know that Kame was feeling alright. And all that matters now.

1 January 2007 : 12.30am
“Thank god, it’s finally over!!” Junno exclaimed, stretching his hands tiredly as he gave a loud yawn.
“I’m dead tired.” Koki complained, resting his head on the sofa.
“Good work, you guys!” Nakamaru clapped his hands, as he gathered the members in a circle, resulting in them protesting.
“It’s already the 1st of January. Do you know what it means?” the rest nodding their heads, “Let’s all work hard!”
Kame smiled brightly as he heard a ring tone he very well knew, ihe mmediately reached out for his cell phone in his bag.
“Kazu-chan, Happy New Year! Love Jin. ♥♥♥” Nakamaru snatched his phone away before he even had the chance to read it himself.
The other members smiled at the message. Kame wanted to hit Nakamaru hard on the head right now but he could not help but feel happy as well, and so he just laughed it off.
“Happy New Year, Jin.”

19 April 2007
“Kame, are you sure you’re okay by yourself?” Ueda asked, worried for his friend who had just been discharged from the hospital due to exhaustion.
Shaking his head weakly, “Yeah, I’m okay. Don’t worry, Tat-chan. I can manage.”
Ueda sighed, he understood.
“Ne Tat-chan, please don’t tell Jin about this. I don’t want to worry him at times like this. He is probably concentrating real hard these days. I don’t want to be the cause of his distraction.”
Ueda remained silent, pondering about his request.
“Tat-chan, please.”
Slowly he nodded his head.
“Thank you.” Kame whispered.
“I will keep quiet on one condition, that you allow us to take care of you while you are still on sick leave. We will take turns to come here. Is that a deal?”
“But Tat-chan-” Kame tried to protest but was interrupted by Ueda.
“We are KAT-TUN. We take care of each other. Please don’t push us away, Kame-chan. Okay?” Ueda coaxed the youngest one.
“You’re right. Thank you, Tat-chan.” Kame flashed out a smile of gratitude.
“Glad to be of service!” Ueda did a soldier sign, resulting in Kame laughing.
Ueda stood up from the bed he had been sitting, “I better get going. Do call us if you need anything, okay? I’ll lock the door on my way out.”
“Hmm, I know.” Kame drifted off to sleep when he heard the door closed.
-- ` --
Kame woke up in the middle of the night crying and hugging the blanket dearly for life.
“Jin, I need you. Jin!” the poor boy sobbed continuously.
After calming himself, he changed into a new pair of shirt and jeans, putting on a jacket as well.
Not forgetting the keys, Kame walked out of his apartment in the cold early morning.
The time on the clock stated -
12.50am.
Kame despite his weak condition still left his house alone.
-- ` --
20 April 2007
~ 3.20 am ~
He inserted the keys slowly, careful to not make any noise. He smiled when he noticed the living room was all dark.
“He must be sleeping.” He whispered so softly that only he himself could hear.
Tiptoeing to the bedroom, he switched on the lights, screaming playfully “Kazu-chan! I’m back!!”
Akanishi Jin smiled only to see an empty lone room.
“Ka- Kame? Are you in the bathroom? Kame!” he searched the bathroom but it was vacant as well.
“Where could he have gone?” Jin whispered, trying to reach his lover on his phone only to hear the familiar ring tone somewhere in the bedroom.
“He didn’t bring his hand phone along.” He immediately rushed out, locking after him, leaving his luggage behind in his boyfriend’s apartment.
-- ` --
Kame didn’t know why but he was missing his lover more than he did in the past few months. If Jin could not be near, he needs to be close to the things that belonged to him. He was heading to Jin’s apartment by feet though he felt weak.
The journey took him more than two hours since his lover’s house was quite far away from his, and that he needed to take a few rest in between due to his condition.
“I’m here finally.” He breathed out.
His vision started to blur as he wobbled his way up the stairs, putting his weight entirely on the handle, he was too weak to walk another step but stubborn as he is, he forced himself up to the summit.
Kame shook his head as he saw two blur images of the door “Not here please.”
He forced himself to stay strong until he entered the apartment, into the bedroom- his lover’s bedroom.
The next few moments were darkness.
-- ` --
“I guess I’ll just meet up with him later.” Jin sighed as he entered his apartment, realizing that he had left his luggage at Kazuya’s.
He scanned his apartment lovingly, it’s been a fruitful six months. Jin smiled knowing that Kame had been the one taking care of it while he was gone.
“Kame, where are you?”
Entering his bedroom, Jin stopped when something blocked his way, not bothering to switch on the lights, he bent down and to his astonishment, recognized his boyfriend’s figure through the little light from the window.
Shocked, he immediately got up to switch on the lights and indeed lying on the floor was Kame- his Kame. What the-
“Kame!” Jin exclaimed, shaking the younger man’s shoulders abruptly.
Seems like he passed out but why- he pondered as he placed Kame gently on his bed, realizing now that his lover’s face looked really pale and that he was much thinner since he last seen him.
“Was I the reason?” Jin thought, he felt guilty that he was the cause of all this.
-- ` --
Ueda groaned as he sleepily answered his cell phone that had been ringing non-stop since just now “This better be important.”
“Ueda!!”
Jin.
“Jin, its 4am in Japan!! I’m trying to get some sleep here! Please call later!” Ueda was about to hang up when -
“Ueda, I’m in Japan now!” Jin immediately said before the latter had the chance to.
“What did you say? Eh, for real?” Ueda replied shocked.
.
.
“I know. I’m coming over now!”
-- ` --
5.30 am
Jin looked at his friend worriedly as he tried to process everything that Ueda had said.
“Kame had been working exceptionally hard this year. I guess he is taking it harder with you being gone. It was okay for the first few months since he had the drama to keep him distracted. But I think as time passed by, he started to miss you even more. He never told us his feelings but we knew, he felt so much loneliness deep inside. As much as we tried to be there for him, we are not you, Jin. We can never be a substitute for you in his heart.”
“So he collapsed?”
“Hmm. Four days ago, during dance practice. Kame was supposed to be hospitalized for at least a week but since he insisted to be discharge yesterday, we didn’t have any other choice. Staying in the hospital alone can be pretty lonely.”
Jin fell into deep silent after listening to Ueda’s talk, he became teary-eyed all of a sudden.
“I wanted to surprise him but I was the one that was surprised instead.”
Ueda patted his friend’s shoulder, “But you’re staying for good, right? You’re not going back?”
“I completed my studies a week ago. But I had to take care of some things first before returning back to Japan that is what had kept me busy. So that is why Kame never replied to my calls.” Jin sighed.
Ueda smiled, handing him a bottle of pills, “This is Kame’s pills. Make sure he takes this three times a day. It’s to strengthen his body. I’ll leave everything to you now.” He simply said as he made his way to the door.
Staring at the bottle, Jin then turned to face Ueda’s retreating figure, “Thank you, Ueda!”
-- ` --
Fluttering his eyes opened, Kame scanned the room at once. Realizing where he was, he tried to get up only to be pushed down by a -
“Kazu-chan, you’re still weak. Just stay in bed for a little while more.”
That voice! It could only belong to Jin! Kame looked up and indeed it is his Jin standing in front of him. It really is Jin. Without wasting any moment, Kame jumped onto him, placing his arms onto his shoulders, sobbing silently.
“Jin, is that really you? If this is only a dream, I don’t want to ever wake up from it!” Kame said in between his sobs, clinging to Jin desperately, not wanting to let him go.
“No sweetheart. It’s not a dream. I’m back. I’ve come home for you.” Jin whispered as he too could not control his emotions, tears falling freely by now.
“Really?” Kame paused, looking at him in the eye.
Nodding his head, Jin positioned himself on the bed, pulling Kame onto his lap. “Thank you for waiting all this while.” He whispered onto his boyfriend’s ear, stealing a kiss or two on the cheeks while holding him lovingly.
Kame smiled as he held Jin’s hands, he felt loved once again.
-- ` --
“Jin!!” they shrieked excitedly once Kame and Jin entered their dressing room.
Kame lips formed into a smile as he let go of his boyfriend’s hand to make chance for the other members to do their thing - well, what else but to give their best vocalist a big hug. All except Ueda seemed surprise on his come back. Ueda knew beforehand, Jin told him.
“Jin, when did you arrive?”
“Is this real?”
“God Jin, we all missed you!!”
Taguchi, Koki and Nakamaru asked at the same time, they were jumping with joy that they did not notice that Ueda did not join in their over-excitement.
“I only arrived early in the morning. Yes, this is real. And I missed you guys too!” Jin shouted, making a big mistake by stretching his arms widely. Those trio responded by giving him another big hug, suffocating the poor boy. “You guys.”
“You’re making him choke.” Kame came to his rescue, they immediately let go of him when that was said.
“Don’t you want one too?” Nakamaru teased the younger one, he was in a good spirit to joke around since it’s a great occasion for celebration.
“Want what?” he pretended not to know though he clearly understood what the eldest member meant.
“Yeah, want what? What are you guys talking about?” Jin asked stupidly, really not getting what Nakamaru was pointing at resulting in the rest of the members to drop down to the floor, shocked.
“Bakanishi! To think you went as far as America to study! Yet you- you-” Koki loss the right words to say.
“That’s right. It’s such a pity.” Nakamaru shook his head in total regret.
“What does that suppose to mean? Don’t play with me.” Jin pretended to be angry, two can play the game.
“Well what they’re trying to say is- though you went to America to pursue your dream, you’re still the same Akanishi Jin we knew when you returned. That’s what that drama is all about.” Kame simply summed up, noticing the astonishment looks from them. “What? Did I say wrong?”
“Not at all. It’s just that Jin is so lucky to have you as his lover.” Ueda finally spoke after being silent all the while.
“Lucky!!!” T-TN shouted at once.
Jin smiled brightly as he pulled Kame into a warm embrace, “I am lucky. And I’m glad god gave me this beautiful gift.”
Kame blushed. He was embarrassed since they were hugging each other in front of their team members!! But he certainly didn’t mind sharing his happiness with them.
“Okay everyone, out out!!” a voice that sounded so much like Nakamaru said, ushering the rest of the members out of the room, apparently he got the message.
Kame smiled, snuggled closer to his lover, he was glad to have Jin back by his side. No more restless nights, no more tears, no more loneliness. No more abandoned nights without Jin’s warmth resting beside him.
“Jin, arigato.” His voice muffled, leaning against Jin’s broad chest.
“What is it for?” Jin sweetly asked, looking at Kame with such endearing eyes, that gaze that he had missed so much, the one that was only meant for him.
“Thank you for coming back to me. You didn’t break your promise so- thank you.”
“Baka.” Jin gave a small laugh, pulling him closer. “I told you. You are my one and only one. I will always find my way back to you. And now that I’m back, I’m going to hold your hand real tight, treasure every moment as it will become our precious memories of us together. I will never let you go, Kazu dear.”
Kame nodded happily, tightening his hold as he softly whispered, “Neither will I.”

Taguchi, Koki and Nakamaru asked at the same time, they were jumping with joy that they did not notice that Ueda did not join in their over-excitement.
“I only arrived early in the morning. Yes, this is real. And I missed you guys too!” Jin shouted, making a big mistake by stretching his arms widely. Those trio responded by giving him another big hug, suffocating the poor boy. “You guys.”
“You’re making him choke.” Kame came to his rescue, they immediately let go of him when that was said.
“Don’t you want one too?” Nakamaru teased the younger one, he was in a good spirit to joke around since it’s a great occasion for celebration.
“Want what?” he pretended not to know though he clearly understood what the eldest member meant.
“Yeah, want what? What are you guys talking about?” Jin asked stupidly, really not getting what Nakamaru was pointing at resulting in the rest of the members to drop down to the floor, shocked.
“Bakanishi! To think you went as far as America to study! Yet you- you-” Koki loss the right words to say.
“That’s right. It’s such a pity.” Nakamaru shook his head in total regret.
“What does that suppose to mean? Don’t play with me.” Jin pretended to be angry, two can play the game.
“Well what they’re trying to say is- though you went to America to pursue your dream, you’re still the same Akanishi Jin we knew when you returned. That’s what that drama is all about.” Kame simply summed up, noticing the astonishment looks from them. “What? Did I say wrong?”
“Not at all. It’s just that Jin is so lucky to have you as his lover.” Ueda finally spoke after being silent all the while.
“Lucky!!!” T-TN shouted at once.
Jin smiled brightly as he pulled Kame into a warm embrace, “I am lucky. And I’m glad god gave me this beautiful gift.”
Kame blushed. He was embarrassed since they were hugging each other in front of their team members!! But he certainly didn’t mind sharing his happiness with them.
“Okay everyone, out out!!” a voice that sounded so much like Nakamaru said, ushering the rest of the members out of the room, apparently he got the message.
Kame smiled, snuggled closer to his lover, he was glad to have Jin back by his side. No more restless nights, no more tears, no more loneliness. No more abandoned nights without Jin’s warmth resting beside him.
“Jin, arigato.” His voice muffled, leaning against Jin’s broad chest.
“What is it for?” Jin sweetly asked, looking at Kame with such endearing eyes, that gaze that he had missed so much, the one that was only meant for him.
“Thank you for coming back to me. You didn’t break your promise so- thank you.”
“Baka.” Jin gave a small laugh, pulling him closer. “I told you. You are my one and only one. I will always find my way back to you. And now that I’m back, I’m going to hold your hand real tight, treasure every moment as it will become our precious memories of us together. I will never let you go, Kazu dear.”
Kame nodded happily, tightening his hold as he softly whispered, “Neither will I.”
