Nino stood by the sink, washing the dishes. Ohno wouldn’t talk to him in till he figured out his feelings. He didn’t know if he was serious or not. The way he said it, he probably was.

Mindlessly scrubbing soapy bubbles on the plates Nino stared off into space. Ohno walked in and put his dishes in the sink. The two men shared a cold gaze in to each other’s eyes. Ohno left the cabin and returned to his quarters.

When Nino woke up the next day he awoke to the bright sun and a sudden urge to regurgitate everything that was in his stomach. He ran out of the cabin. The bright sun blinded the business man for a moment. He squinted his eyes then ran towards the edge of the boat. Whatever was left of the charred fish Ohno made the previous night became food for the fish of the sea.

Looking up, Nino could see Ohno’s shadowed silhouette on the far end of the boat with his fishing pole. He looked over at the somber figure remembering how he played his guitar while the older caught dinner. Then he remembered that that memory was only yesterday. He liked being happy with the fisherman. He made him the happiest he could ever remember being.

The diary. The diary. The diary that Nino found the day before would be able to give him an insight to Ohno’s psyche. Maybe if he understood Ohno better Nino would be able to understand what his feeling meant.

He quietly sneaked up to the stairs leading to the captain's quarters. The black haired man opened the door quickly, grabbed the diary, then lied down on the floor where Ohno wouldn’t be able to see him. He rolled around on the soft carpet before finding a comfortable position to read in. Nino started from the back of the notebook to find the most recent entry.

Day 329

I kissed him today. I didn’t mean to but I just had to know if I really love him. Even though I wimped out when it came to continuing the kiss I now know that I love him. I hope he feels the same way as I do. I just can’t imagine being happy without him at my side anymore.
Maybe I should thank Maki-san. Not only did she indirectly force Nino to end up on my boat but I’m now a free man because of her. I no longer have to worry about work and marriage. I can just fish on my boat.
I told Nino that I won’t talk to him in till he sorts out his feelings. I sorta feel bad about that. I don’t want to restrain myself from him but I was pretty mad that he only kissed me because he thought it would make me happy, not that he actually wanted to do it.

Nino shut the notebook and snuck out of the captain's quarters. Nino was confused. What did Maki have to do with Ohno. Is she the reason why he quit being a lawyer? Nino decided to forget about that for now. It would be better if he did.

It was still morning but Nino felt a wave sleepiness fall over him. He didn’t want to deal with everything. He didn’t want to deal with his feelings and he for sure didn’t want to deal with Ohno. The best way to escape the world was to just go to sleep and start all over again. Nino went back inside of the cabin, curled up in to a little ball, and went back to sleep.

The next time Nino woke up it was dark. A blanket was wrapped around his cold body. he didn’t remember doing that. It must have been Ohno. Sitting down at the table there was a bowl of soup covered with some plastic wrap. Ohno must have saved him dinner. Quickly, he devoured the small meal. Looking around the dark room from his seat he could see that Ohno was shivering in his sleep. Feeling a little sympathetic and still slightly confused, Nino took his blanket and covered Ohno with it.

The black haired man let the cold air hit is face as he stepped on to the deck of the boat. The fresh, salty air quickly filled his lungs. Nino inhaled, then exhaled. He turned and climbed the stairs to the captain's cabin. Nino opened the door, grabbed the note book, and checked for any new entries. To his delight, there was one.

Day 330

I can’t stand this.
I miss Nino.
I just want to rush into his arms and kiss him.
I wonder why I don’t.
I want to be the one there for him in times of need.
I want to laugh with him, talk with him, and be with him.
I want him.

A single tear feel down the side of Nino’s cheek. This tear was followed by another, and yet another tear. Tears streaked his face and fell on to the note book. Nino soon found himself uncontrollably sobbing. Between the sobs he felt his heart speaking. Only his heart could say his true emotions.

“No one has ever cared about me like that. I’ve always been pushed to the side but now when I have someone who is willing to care about me I’m the one pushing him to the side? I care about him, I really do, I just don’t know what this feeling is called. I’ve never felt anything this strong before.”

Nino collapsed on to his knees, the tears from his eyes taking over. Once he regained control over his emotions he wiped his face dry. The notebook was returned to it’s former position on the shelf. Nino then left the cool air engulf him once again as he quickly returned to the cabin. Sleep suddenly fell over him. Inside the warm cabin Nino could see Ohno’s face. He wandered closer to it on his way back to his bed.

Nino lightly kissed Ohno’s cheek.

“I don’t know what this feeling is called but if it’s called love so be it.”

Nino went back to bed. Ohno shifted under the blanket. He moaned a little before turning on his side and falling back asleep.

It was first thing in the morning. Sho, Jun, and Maki were still asleep below the deck of Aiba’s ship. They had been sailing for a couple of days without word from Ohno so Aiba decided to turn on his radio to see if he could pick up Ohno’s signal. Luckily he did but at first heard nothing. Realizing that it was in the dark hours of the morning for Ohno, considering the difference in time zones, Aiba was ready to put down his receiver but then he heard a muffled sob. He listened a littler closer. A voice could be heard.

“No one has ever cared about me like that. I’ve always been pushed to the side but now when I have someone who is willing to care about he I’m the one pushing him to the side? I care about him, I really do, I just don’t know what this feeling is called. I’ve never felt anything this strong before.”

Aiba held his breath, hoping he couldn’t make a single sound, in till he heard a click of a door. Unsure if it was the door behind him or Ohno’s door he turned around. Be hind him Sho stood in the doorway.

“I’m assuming Ohno-sensei left his radio on?” He ruffled his hair. It was apparent that he had just woken up.

“Probably,” Aiba made sure to turn off his radio. “Oh-chan has done it plenty of times before.”

Sho nodded and headed back below the deck to go see his lover. There were some things she was better off not knowing.

A/N: Happy Sho day! I really wanted to give him a bigger role in this chapter because of his birthday but my plot didn't permit it.
(゚´Д`゚)゚
I had this whole chapter written last Friday but my computer got a virus. I think I've fixed it but I hope it doesn't affect anything else.
Now that I've got my grades in order infrequent updates should no longer be a problem~
Silent readers cause a little piece of my heart to break off and die.
