A/N: This is written out of impulse and inspired by w-inds' "Truth". Kind of a prequel for 'New World'. LOL seems like I've started to like this pairing too much now. Am sorry for the bad grammar and if Keita turns out to be OC. Didn't know much about him but do read somewhere that he could be stubborn XD.
“Hey guys, look at who I found at the photo exhibition.”
The man in front of him stepped aside revealing him as he waved at the other few men in front of him, smiling awkwardly.
“You are definitely tense,” Ryuichi commented giving him a gentle smack on his shoulder as he added, “It is only Keita and the guys.”
Kame smiled shyly. Of course he should be tense. It has been long since he saw Keita and moreover it’s not he knew who the other guys are.
“Yo, Kame~”
He knows that drawl anywhere and when he saw the owner of the said drawl he could feel himself loosened a bit. Kame grinned.
“Hi, Pi.”
And his eyes met Keita that was sitting beside the other and somehow when he saw that smirk on the man’s face, Kame could feel his heart skipped a beat.
“Hi, Kazu-kun.” The man greeted smiling warmly.
“Hi,” he replies back softly.
Yeah, it has been long since he met Keita. He had changed a bit appearance wise though his toothy smile was still there. And he had always thought that Keita is adorable looking but now the man in front of him is no more an adorable teen but a good looking man.
Kame then realizes he was staring when Ryuichi pulled him to a seat around the table. Throughout the night he had avoided looking at Keita on the face.
*************************************************************************************
“Want to hang out tonight?”
Kame looked at Pi curiously. It is a rare chance for Pi to invite him to hang out.
“What?” Pi frowned. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“You rarely invite me Pi. Why the sudden change?”
“Because Jin’s not here?” his friend replies flashing out a crooked smile.
Kame couldn’t help to roll his eyes. “And you really found me as a good substitute for Jin? I thought you said that I was boring and…”
“Keita-kun’s going to be there and he asked me to invite you,” Pi cuts him off and what the other had said makes him stare in surprise.
“Oh…”
“I think he has the hots for you.” Pi added, smiling deviously.
Kame raises a brow, “Yamashita-san, are you aware of what you had said just now?”
Pi nodded his head, saying, “He has being too obvious about his interest in you.”
“Pi,” Kame presses, “Me and Keita has been friends for quite some time. It is just a friendly gesture.” He sighs, “I really don’t want you to think that way about me and him. Things will get complicated.”
His older friend just shrugged. “We had our own opinion on how we saw things.”
Kame knew that the older man could be stubborn sometimes and he also didn’t have the energy to debate more on it. He then turned back to what he was doing before the interruption when he noticed that Pi hadn’t move from where he had stood.
“Yes, Pi?”
“Yes or No?” the other simply asked.
Kame turned to look at his friend questioningly.
“Tonight.”
Oh…
“Well?” Pi pressed on.
Kame bit his lower lip thoughtfully and knowing very well that his stubborn friend wouldn’t take a ‘No’ as an answer, he sighs out a ‘Yes’.
************************************************************************************
“It has been long hasn’t it?”
Kame turned to look at the man sitting beside him at the restaurant. They are now sitting at a secluded corner in a barbeque restaurant; him, Pi, Ryuichi and Keita.
“Yeah,” he replies softly trying to ignore the knowing glances Pi was throwing.
“Busy with the tour?”
He grimaces slightly nodding his head. It is not that he didn’t like it but is very tiring and somehow without the presence of Jin it is more tiring.
“Will be leaving for Korea next week,” he told the other sipping his beer.
“Hey, you and the others will make it good. Don’t worry.”
Kame smiled at the encouragement. “I am a bit nervous, it is our first Asia Tour and…”
He felt a soft pat on his head, ruffling his hair on the process. He turned to Keita that was smiling widely at him.
“Where’s the Kamenashi Kazuya I knew back then?”
Kame grinned at that, swatting the hand away from his head. “You are ruining my hair.”
Keita let out a hearty chuckle and as he looked at the older man, Kame could feel his heart throbs in a good way.
That night he just couldn’t take his eyes away from the other.
*************************************************************************************
Kame woke up with a start and sighs softly in relief when he realizes that he was in his own room. So last night was a dream. He didn’t remember much about what had happened but he could still feel the lingering feelings, the careful touches and the soft kisses.
“You awake?”
Kame’s heart stopped at the sound of a very familiar voice. Slowly he turned to his side as the realization dawned on him. He was not dreaming.
“Don’t worry; we didn’t get to do anything that much last night. You slept on me.”
Kame just stared at the older man, speechless. He didn’t know how to react. He really hadn’t expected that their relationship will come to this. And as if noticing his discomfort, the other cleared his throat flashing him a weak smile.
“I guess I should be going now.”
He watched Keita slipped away from the covers and without thinking twice he caught hold of the other’s wrist. Keita seem to be surprise by his action.
“I like you.” He blurted out suddenly and when he realized what he just said, Kame could feel himself blush.
“I like-…”
“But…” Kame cuts the other off, “I am not sure if I do want this.”
When he saw the look on Keita’s face, Kame groaned softly knowing that he had said something embarrassing. He didn’t even sure if Keita do intend to have a relationship ‘that way’ with him. Moreover he was sure that Keita is a heterosexual.
He lets go of the other’s wrist and covered his face with his hands.
“I’m sorry,” he muffled out. “You can go now. Just forget what I had just said.”
But the other didn’t go. He could feel Keita sits down on the bed beside him.
“I really like you Kazu-kun,” Keita whispers gently. “And I do want to have a relationship with you.”
Kame pulled his hand away from his face and looked at the other in disbelief. “But, you… you don’t even swing that way.”
Keita shrugged lightly, “I just like you. I guess gender is not that important.”
“But…” Kame really couldn’t believe this.
“I.LIKE.YOU. End of story.” The older man stated confidently and Kame knew that anything he says will not change Keita’s mind and maybe heart at this moment.
“I don’t date heterosexual men.” Kame then replies stubbornly. Yes, he admits that he does like Keita but it doesn’t mean he is going to date him.
“I’ll make you date me.”
Kame bit his lower lip and releases them slowly, frowning slightly and a smirk makes his way onto the older man’s face.
“You are enticing me, do you know that?”
And before he could react the other had reached out to cup his face, tracing his lower lip with his thumb.
“You had always been beautiful.”
Kame placed his hand atop the other, pushing it away gently. “I’m sorry.”
Instead of a hurt look, Keita flashes him a toothy grin. “I promise I’ll make you want to date me.”
Keita could be very stubborn sometimes and with that thought, Kame just sighs.
“You’ll be leaving for Korea tonight aren’t you?”
He nodded his head slowly, “Yeah.”
“And we won’t be seeing each other for a while.”
Kame looked at the older man questioningly, wondering what the other is trying to say.
“I don’t want us to separate with bad awkward feelings. Still friends?”
Kame smiles at that and nodded his head. “Yeah, I won’t be throwing out a good friend just because he was trying to get me date him.”
Keita chuckles and Kame knows in his heart that he could watch that face forever.
“You’ll date me.”
He rolled his eyes and as if daring the other he replies, “We’ll see about that.”
The older man smirks at that and unexpectedly leaned towards him, placing a kiss at the corner of his mouth whispering back, “We’ll see.”
A/N: And we already know what happens next don't we? And thank you for reading this :D
