“What skills do you believe are necessary to be a leader?” Yamashita, the CEO of the company, asked.

“There are many, but one that I often find underrated is the ability to show your willingness to be crazy,” Ryo replied, knowing that the meeting was not to determine his suitability for a position as division president in the company. Ryo’s reputation as a leader had spread not only throughout Tokyo but to Osaka as well. Everyone wanted him. The meeting was about what kind of salary he could negotiate for. His price would be high, just like anyone in demand, but attaining that status had not come without a cost.

“Nishikido-san?” Yamashita prompted, and Ryo realized that his thoughts had gone on a tangent.

“Use emoticons in emails,” Ryo explained, “start meetings with a game of charades by acting out various topics on the agenda, and offer to dress up as Hard Gay wearing a Santa hat at the following year’s holiday party.”

“Would you actually dress up like that?” Yamashita asked as the presidents of the three divisions other than the one Ryo was negotiating for attempted to subtly cover up their giggles.

“Well, I doubt anyone would actually have the nerve to ask their boss to do that,” Ryo answered, “but offering to do it will make you look immensely assertive and accessible in their eyes.” Yamashita and the other presidents nodded in understanding.

~~~~~

Ryo proceeded to describe various other leadership qualities for the rest of the morning then enjoyed a delicious lunch with the other executives. In the afternoon, they reached an agreement on contract terms and salary, with Ryo’s role as the fourth division president starting two months later.

Yamashita then showed him around the building, including the penthouse-level office that would be his. The penthouse suite consisted of the offices of the CEO and four division presidents, as well as the executive meeting room, and had an octagonal hallway with windows overlooking the courtyard in the center of the building.

When they left Ryo’s future office, Ryo happened to look through the courtyard and into the windows of the floor below on the opposite side of the building. He momentarily lost track of what Yamashita was saying when he saw a man organizing a few things on his desk and picking up a bag before turning the light off. Even from that distance, Ryo could tell that the man was attractively built and had a very fine ass.

“Kato Shigeaki,” Yamashita motioned towards the office that the man had just vacated, “is one of the most talented men in this company. He is in the division you will be heading, and if you have any questions about the operations of the division, I am sure that he is more than capable of answering them.”

“I will keep that in mind,” Ryo said, extending his hand towards Yamapi. “I look forward to working with you to build a stronger company.”

“Same here,” Yamashita shook Ryo’s hand and walked him to the elevator.

Ryo made it out of the building and started heading towards the train station only to glimpse that unmistakable ass several meters ahead of him. As he followed the man-Shige, as he was already calling him in his head, because last names were too formal when asses were involved-the plan he devised degenerated from simply stalking to something so much more dangerous and consequently so much more hot.

~~~~~

Ryo had his eyes on Shige’s back and was poised to shift himself that last bit closer as passengers got on and off at the next station. The mayhem was too much for him to cross the last few feet, so he resolved to be more prepared at the next stop. It took him another stop to perfectly plan his route of attack and one more to execute it.

Finally, Ryo was able to press his hand against the back of Shige’s upper thigh. Unfortunately, Shige did not react, and Ryo realized that he must have just assumed that the touch was pressure from all the people crushed into the too small space of the train. That would not do. Just touching this beautiful man had Ryo’s heart beating faster, but there was no real fun in it unless he could draw out a reaction. He slowly moved his hand back and forth, gradually sinking his fingers into the man’s thigh with a pressure that he hoped evidenced his intentions. When he saw Shige’s shoulders stiffen beneath his suit jacket, Ryo let his fingers creep forward and reached his thumb up to run along the place where that gorgeous ass met the thigh he was caressing. He could feel Shige, despite the rocking of the train, slightly trembling under his touch.

Ryo’s chest tightened, and he had to force himself to breathe steadily. It had been a long damn time since he had touched anyone like that, though that was no indication that he was not skilled in his movements. Ryo spent so much time on his career that he had lost touch with the reality of appropriateness in social circumstances involving his personal life. It never occurred to him that groping a man on a train made him a grotty hentai. He derived satisfaction from the knowledge that he had finally found something that he wanted and had been deft enough in all his movements to bring that into his reach and grasp onto it. The fact that it was his soon-to-be subordinate’s admittedly fine ass incited no feelings of guilt in him.

Suddenly Shige twisted out of Ryo’s grasp so that his back was against the divider he had been facing. Ryo swallowed through the thickness that rose in his throat as Shige’s hip then the front of his thigh slid under his hand. It was an unexpected but quite welcome development, especially when Shige stopped moving just as Ryo’s hand barely met his crotch.

Shige stood frozen as Ryo moved his palm to slide along his crotch. Ryo wondered what it would feel like if it were the man’s skin under his fingertips rather than his dress pants. Time stopped for a blissful moment when Shige suddenly lifted his face and locked eyes with Ryo. Really seeing Shige for the first time at close proximity, Ryo realized that it was more than just his ass and body that were attractive. He was staring into the most beautiful pair of eyes he had ever seen, though admittedly he had not spent much time looking. He could tell by the mixture of lust and anger in Shige’s eyes that he had deducted that Ryo was the one groping him. Yet in that moment, Ryo wondered if his professional success was worth the pleasure he had sacrificed to obtain it. Obviously it was, but that did not stop Ryo from taking advantage of the opportunity at hand. He pressed harder against the man, who still seemed to be unable to tear his eyes away, and felt him twitch a little.

Ryo felt a hand brush his away purposefully, although Shige never broke eye contact. Ryo scowled in disappointment and continued to watch Shige out of the corner of his eye. By the time the shifting of passengers allowed Shige to move away from him a few minutes later, Ryo was already working out how he could fit this into his schedule again.

~~~~~

Two days later Ryo just managed to squeeze into the crowded train car that he had watched Shige get onto. He smirked inwardly as he realized there was a group of school kids around Shige preventing him from moving away from Ryo’s groping hand.

Although Shige was able to move enough to reach behind himself and brush his hand away, Ryo knew he had control of the situation and reached out to feel up the inside of his leg again. He wondered if he would be able to ascertain from the faces of the school girls standing in front of Shige whether he was reacting the same way to the touches that Ryo himself was.

Heat burned in Ryo’s stomach when Shige glanced back over his shoulder at him, but in the next instant, Shige brushed his hand away again. It seemed like a game to Ryo, and he hated to lose. He returned his hand to Shige’s hip before sliding it to his ass and squeezing then snaking it as far forward between Shige’s legs as he could reach from that angle.

Ryo decided immediately that there was no way he was doing anything about his phone vibrating dangerously near his crotch. Scratch that. Fortuitously near his crotch. When virtually everyone else in the car pulled out their phones in almost the same instant and burst into laughter, however, he decided that he may as well check his message. His phone had stopped vibrating anyway.

Suddenly the school girls were squealing and two men were tugging Ryo backwards. As people moved away from the middle of the car en masse when he was pulled to and left there by the men, he saw the message on his phone: “Beware: Train Groper” was written below a picture of himself. He stood there in shock with a ring of space between himself and the other passengers, thoroughly embarrassed that his future vice president had outsmarted him. Yes, he was definitely promoting this Kato to vice president.

After Shige exposed Ryo with the mysterious phone trick, Ryo decided that it would no longer be wise follow him home. Ryo’s aim had been to get what he wanted before Shige found out Ryo’s position with the company and things became awkward. However, another important leadership quality that Ryo believed in was the ability to be perceptive and adaptable, and he thought it would be most effective to change his approach. Yet as he twisted in his sheets that night, squeezing himself but imagining it was the other man’s cock between his fingers instead, Ryo just wanted him more because brilliance like that gets him off.

~~~~~

Two months later Ryo began his job as a division president in the company. He requested that Shige be promoted to the vice president of his division and explained that he had seen first-hand just what Kato-san was capable of when he took initiative. Yamashita asked no questions, trusting Ryo’s reputation as a savvy businessman and a strong leader. When Yamashita introduced Shige to Ryo during a staff meeting, Ryo was more than pleased as he watched Shige spit his coffee all over the table.

In the weeks that followed, Ryo discovered that Shige routinely spilled coffee on the table during meetings. As long as it did not get on any of his documents, Ryo did not care. Everyone had their weak points. His was squeezing his own ass on the train and pretending it was Shige’s.

Yamashita once remarked on how often Ryo took coffee breaks in the hall outside of his office, and Ryo said the change of scenery was good for clearing his mind a bit and enabled him to work more effectively. It was true, except that the scenery he was there for was Shige and the clearing of his mind was accomplished by imagining for a few moments all the touches he had forgone to get there, Shige’s and otherwise.

Ryo found that Shige’s awkwardness somehow made him more sexy. As did his voice. More than anything though, he saw that Shige was a hard worker and respected him for that. He thought Shige respected him too. He wondered if it was because Shige had worked so hard and given up the same things to be successful. He thought back to the incidents on the train, now months in the past, and considered whether maybe Shige had the same needs as he did. Possibly, he thought, he had shown his amazing leadership skills on the train by showing his employee that even as a leader he was just like him, with the same needs.

It all came back to that. How he had been an effective leader and how he could improve. He was happy, but maybe a break would do him good. That life without feeling was rather boring. Fuck he needed more than this. Happiness be damned.

~~~~~

Ryo requested that Shige stay late to work on a vital, time-sensitive report that night. Ryo had occasionally asked the same thing in the past, and Shige was always willing to comply. Ryo had always made sure he left before Shige was finished though, not sure if he would be able to control himself alone with Shige. Now that he had decided he could care less whether he had that control, at least for a few moments, Ryo watched Shige for hours from the darkened hall and could see when he finished the project and headed towards the elevator. Walking behind his desk, Ryo crouched down, making sure his ass was sticking out form behind the desk and wiggling.

When Shige walked into Ryo’s office to drop off the work, he was surprised to find Ryo still there.

“Nishikido-san? I didn’t expect to see you like that-erm-still here.” As much as Ryo knew Shige thought he was a hentai, he also knew that Shige still got a little flustered around him. He was a damn hot hentai after all. Ryo lifted his head until his eyes were just peaking over the desk.

“I dropped my paperclips,” Ryo said with an entirely unnecessary eyebrow waggle.

“You stayed late for that?” Shige was skeptical of his boss’ motivations, but he placed the report on the desk and walked behind it anyway.

“I don’t expect more from my employees than I give,” Ryo said sincerely. And it was true, Shige knew.

“I’ll help-” before Shige had even finished, Ryo grabbed him by his jacket and started shoving him backwards.

“Leadership is a fine line between taking what you want and convincing others to give it to you,” Ryo said as he backed Shige into a wall and put his mouth on Shige’s lips. Ryo fought to keep his eyes open. He wanted to sense as much of Shige in that moment as he could, not convinced that he would be able to bring himself to do this ever again. At first Shige did not respond, but when he opened his mouth to allow Ryo’s tongue to slip inside, Ryo’s eyelids fluttered shut.

The feeling was infinitely better than what Ryo had felt when he was touching Shige on the train, infinitely better than what he had imagined on those nights of sweaty desperation. Then Shige started kissing him back, and the part of himself that Ryo had stifled for so long started to gradually take control. He slid his hands down to Shige’s hips as Shige’s tongue pushed his back into his own mouth. Ryo was about to slide his hand over Shige’s crotch as he had done on the train when he realized that this situation allowed for so much more. Instead, he fitted their hips together and moved against Shige as they kissed.

“Shige,” Ryo whispered roughly against Shige’s lips, “is that a hard on, or are you just happy to see me?”

“You should stick to groping as your main form of seduction,” Shige said gruffly, dropping his hands to Ryo’s ass and breathing against his ear. “God, I thought you were so hot when you were touching me on the train. It had been a long damn time since anyone had touched me like that, had paid any sort of attention to me. You knew exactly what to do, and when I saw how hot the guy feeling me up was, I knew I would get hard right there on the train if I let it go on.”

They kissed again until they were drawing little noises out of each other’s throats. Shige actually growled when Ryo pulled back.

“If we leave now we have time to catch the last train,” Ryo said, standing up and moving to grab his bag from next to his desk.

“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Shige practically whined.

“We can’t let go here,” Ryo said quietly. “I need to let go.”

~~~~~

They got on the train going in Shige’s usual direction, and Ryo pulled Shige to stand in front of him in a corner. Shige knew it looked odd, the two of them in the corner of the nearly empty train. He looked around nervously as one hand balanced them against the wall and the other snuck inside Ryo’s suit jacket and held onto a belt loop, hoping those around them thought Ryo was drunk. Meanwhile, Ryo had loosened Shige’s tie, undone his top button, and started sucking on his neck.

“You little fucker,” Shige breathed.

“Take out the ‘little’ and you’ve got it about right,” Ryo smirked as he looked up at Shige

“We’ll see about that,” Shige pointedly looked down at Ryo with skepticism.

Shige had to bite his lip when Ryo started groping his crotch.

~~~~~

If any of their colleagues noticed how Ryo and Shige always sat next to each other in meetings from that point on, they never said anything. Ryo grumbled when Shige’s spilt coffee got on his documents, but it was a small price to pay when Shige was groping him under the table.
