Ten - I warned you. Never doubt it!
Normal POV
5 years later…
“Papa Toshi!!!!” the voice of his child echoed in their living room and Ohno couldn’t help to smile.
5 years. It was never a short time but it felt like yesterday when he first hold the baby in his arms, amaze of the miracle they were facing that time.
Haruma. That was the name of their child. A Combination of their character name in Pikanchi. It wasn’t his or Nino’s idea to name their child to such name. It was the other three idea after a while of quarrelling on the name the new born should have.
“I still think Kazutoshi will be fine,” Sho said.
“yeah, and the baby will be confused when their parent called each other. Like “hey kazu”, “yes toshi” and the child will goes like “huh they’re calling me but they’re grinning like an idiot at each other,” Jun replied, against Sho’s idea.
“Or Satonari. Nino don’t called Oh-chan Sato right? And Oh-chan didn’t call Nino as Nari,” Aiba suggested. Nino snorted loud at the suggestion.
“if I am the child, I prefer death over that name, Aiba-chan,”
“Kazu-“ Ohno was about to protest when Jun spoke again.
“Haruma then,” Jun said, earning four curious eyes over his suggestion. “just because his parent are too dumb to think of a good name and the friends are just thinking a name that linking the two, I suggest for a name that combine your character name in Pikanchi. How is it?” he explained, smug as he finished.
And everyone agreed.
His memories playback stopped when his son called him again, climbing onto his lap, giggling.
“How’s your day out with Papa Kazu today?” Ohno asked, eyeing Nino who was making his way to the kitchen with bags contained the groceries he bought.
“Fun at first. Papa Kazu bought his new games. And he bought me a DS too,”
“Ok… so what made it bad then?” Ohno asked, noticing how Nino never came back to the living room.
“Something happened at the konbini. We were checking the list we wrote earlier when there’s this aunty and uncle came. The aunty kept asking her husband where is their child, asking him to help her with their needs but seems like the uncle was ignoring her,”
Ohno pause his son.
“How many times have I told you, Haruma. It’s rude to look or overheard people’s conversation,”
“but that’s what put papa Kazu on halt. So I keep observing them, trying to see what’s wrong with it,”
Ohno heaved a sigh. “Ok, what happened then?”
“I don’t know. ***suddenly this uncle was yelling “stop calling me darling, woman! Know your state! I am so ashamed of you. If I ever know that you’ll be this fat after we get married, I will never marry you on the first place,” and then he started cursing his wife. Everyone in the konbini was looking at them. And that aunty, she put everything back onto its place before leaving. I believe she was crying that time,”
“Papa Kazu?”
“He just fell silent. He didn’t talk but he still bought all the things we have listed earlier, so it’s fine I guess. But … Papa Kazu didn’t talk a single word to me. I was wondering if he’s fine though,” the child said, slight pouting as he finished with his words.
Patting his son head lovingly, Ohno shook his head as an answer to Haruma’s question.
Everything makes sense. That could have explained the reason why to Nino’s sudden change of mood. That man usually will join their conversation but this time, Ohno could see that trouble look on his face the moment he walked into their house earlier.
“Haruma,” he called his son name.
“hmm?”
“I just think that maybe I’ll ask uncle Aiba to take you to the zoo today if that’s fine for you?” he proposed his idea to his son. The young boy frowned.
“huh? Why? I just came back,”
“hurmmm, because I need some times with Papa Kazu?” he was stating the truth. “And it’s still early today. Go and kill some times hearing uncle Aiba’s explanation about those animals, ne?” His son laughed.
“ok then, but give me some money then,” his son laughed to see Ohno’s eyes widen by the request. Tickling his son, he put his Haruma to his side, starting to dial Aiba’s number.

“How long have you been analyzing your body, Kazu?” Ohno asked after a while of observing his mate. Nino was standing in front of the mirror, analyzing his body and the moment when he started tracing the scar on his stomach, Ohno couldn’t keep watching anymore.
There wasn’t a smile on the man’s face and Ohno didn’t need to ask to confirm how much Nino was affected by the incident he saw earlier.
Quickly, Nino pulled down his shirt.
“Where’s Haruma?” he asked, Ohno shrugged.
“Aiba took him out. I asked him too. That boy has been begging for quite a time that we often took him out to the sea and the game center but not once the zoo. And Kazu, isn’t it a little bad for you to take him to the game center?” Ohno asked, making his way to the man before hugging him from behind. They looked at their reflection on the mirror while talking.
“I’m not taking him to the center Oh-chan. I’m taking him to the shop. It’s two different places,”
Ohno smirks.
“whatever. It’s not really matters for me. But Sho-kun has been whining about it though,”
Nino laughed
“Tell him that we’ll entrust our son into him when it comes to education later. I want my son to enjoy his life while he can,” Nino responded.
“And I want you to enjoy my love while you’re here by my side,” Ohno replied, his nose on the crook of Nino’s neck, breathe in the scent of the man’s perfume.
“oh-chan, I-“
“You’re affected by it,” Ohno cut him.
“Of course I am. Look at me. I’m getting fatter. Even the fans make fussed about it. And that scar, gosh I don’t want to mention it,”
“So?”
“I’m hideous. You’re gonna hate me,” Nino replied, obviously feeling down.
“Who says so?” Ohno asked, tighten his embrace around Nino’s waist even more. “They’re not me to confirms whatever I feel about you,”
“but-“
“What have I told you about doubting my love for you, Kazu? I’ve warned you before, remember?”
Nino lowered his face, sighing. Slowly Ohno turned him around, making them to face each other.
“Fat, scars. Those things are just silly things, Kazu. And I never let silly things to affect my love for you. I love you and I never see any sign to stop loving you any moment soon and I’m sure with myself. The only day that you’ll never feel the love from me is the day I die. And if that happened, I will wait for you there and we’ll walk to the place of eternity together. My love for you won’t die even after I do, Nino,”
There’s a while of silent before Nino burst out laughing.
“Cheesy, old man,” he said with laughs along his words. Ohno laughs too.
“Daijoubu, I’m fine with it being lame as long as my words reaching you,” Ohno said, lips curling forming a smile. He leaned in before kiss Nino on his lips.
“Don’t doubt my love for you again, Nino. I warn you,”
Nino smirks.
“But what if I do?” he asked, tilting his head as he wrap his hand along Ohno’s nape.
Ohno already has the answer even before Nino asked.
Smirking, he replied. “Why do you think I asked Aiba-chan took Haruma for an out today, Kazu?” he asked, pushing Nino to their bed. “I only have that one punishment for you,”
That Naruse’s smirk on Ohno’s lips, only Nino knew what it means.
