Gackt looked worriedly at Mana, who were swaying a little as he stood in front of the camera in the scorching sun. It was the third day of the photo-shoot and he knew his lover had pulled two all-nighters in a row, sewing all night to finish more outfits for the shoots. It didn’t matter how many times he pleaded him to get some sleep, Mana refused to listen. After 3 hours in front of the camera in these conditions anyone would be quite drained of energy and he wondered why Mana hadn‘t asked for a break yet. Gackt sat down in the make-up area and let the girl start to do his make-up, which he knew from experience would take quite a while to perfect, while Yu~ki and Kami were goofing around and Közi was squeezing into his outfit. Just as he started to relax there were a small commotion, people started hurrying around and he heard people saying “call for an ambulance” and the mentions of “Mana” . At once he was wide awake and pushed the make up-girl aside as he practically jumped out of the chair to get to his lover.
A small gathering had formed around Mana, who laid on the ground unconscious. He pushed through the crowd to sit by his lover and demanded “get him some water!” in French as he cradled the thin frame in his arms. Közi was next to them in just a few seconds, looking very worried
“I told him he should rest…” he mumbled, mostly to himself
“He just needs water and some rest, he will be fine” Gackt replied, trying hard to sound confident
“I will notify everyone that we will continue this tomorrow” Közi stated before quickly walking away to inform everyone about the shoot being over.
“Mana, love, wake up” Gackt whispered close to his lover’s ear
“they have brought you some water” he grabbed a water bottle that was held out to him.
“You have to drink, come on” he pleaded, putting the bottle to Mana’s lips.
Mana groaned slightly as he started to come back into consciousness, but opened his lips and drank the water as Gackt poured it slowly into his mouth.
Weakly pushing the bottle away he asked
“What happened?”
“You just fainted. Közi have already told everyone the shoot is over for today so you can rest”
“But we have to finish this!” at once he was upset, struggling to get up but falling down again
“We have enough time to let the shoot wait for a day, Mana, you really should rest” Gackt held onto him as he got up, making sure he wouldn’t fall again “we’re going back to the house, now”
“Fine” Mana grumbled, not happy to be ordered around but not strong enough to fight it.
“Go back to bed, Mana” Közi sighed, watching his best friend once again sitting by the sewing machine even though it was 2 am. Two days had went by since he had collapsed on set and he was already trying to work through the night. So stubborn he thought to himself. Gackt had unwillingly ordered him to take care of Mana while he was away to ‘discuss things’ with his manager, something that Közi did not mind doing at all.
“Just got to finish this hem” Mana replied, immersed in his work
“And then what?” he raised an eyebrow
“Then it’s time to sleep. Don’t worry about me”
Közi walked over to him and sat down next to him on a small chair
“How could I not worry? You collapsed! Do you have any idea how serious that is?!”
“I’m fine!” Mana started getting irritated “Let me just finish this.”
Közi stood up slowly, shaking his head
“I’m going back to bed, you should too” With those words he left the room. He was so worried about his friend, fearing it would be more than just fainting next time, but no one could really force Mana into anything. Well, not if you wanted to keep your job that is…
He went back to the cod bed that he had finally gotten used to and soon fell asleep. A few hours later he was awoken by a hand softly nudging his arm
“..what is it?” he asked in a tired voice, annoyed over being woken up
“Do you mind…?” Mana’s voice was weak. Közi figured his friend had nightmares again after all that had happened the past few weeks, just like he had in the past
“Come here” he replied and made room in the small bed for Mana
“Thanks” the feminine man laid down beside him and nuzzled his neck
“It’s fine, now get some sleep” Közi yawned and embraced his best friend, enjoying the warmth and the faint smell of Vanilla. I miss this he thought to himself.
Mana bit his lip, not sure about how his best friend would react to his words
“Uhm… don’t say anything to Gackt about this…”
“Which part? You not being able to sleep on your own or you sleeping together with me?”
“He worries too much, you know? So just don‘t say anything, please?”Mana pleaded
“I won’t, don’t worry. I’m your best friend, remember?” Közi sighed “now let’s just go to sleep”
“Good morning…” the words that woke them up were angry and cold
“Gackt?” Mana asked, still half-asleep and not yet aware that he still was in Közi’s arms
“Are you two going to explain yourself or do you just want me to leave?” Gackt sounded both angry and hurt, crossing his arms in front of his chest
“We just slept…” Mana started, but got immediately interrupted
“You ‘just’ slept together, is that it? I can’t believe this…”
“I guess you did not know this but… Mana‘s nightmares are back” Közi yawned and stretched
“so instead of making him stay awake another night I let him sleep here, that‘s all”
“Of course you had to let ‘Mana-hime’ sleep in your bed, right?” Gackt growled and then turned to Mana again “and why didn’t you tell me about the nightmares?”
The room went silent.
After a while Közi climbed out of bed and without looking at either of them went to the bath room
“I’m taking a shower, you go ahead and talk”
Only after the sound of the water being turned on did the silence break
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“You don’t have to worry about it” Mana sighed
“When you’re sleeping in the same bed as your ‘best friend’ who’s in love with you?”
“Közi wouldn’t do anything, he is my best friend but I love you.”
“You slept in his arms knowing he’s in love with you?!” Gackt became more irritated
“Well, yeah…” Mana looked down, ashamed “but it’s been years since…” he stopped himself from saying more things that would hurt his lover further and make him more jealous
“… there’s nothing like that between me and Közi anymore, okay?”
“…okay” the word was reluctantly coming from Gackt’s lips, who had finally calmed down a bit
“Can I get a good morning kiss then?” Mana took one of the singers hands in his own and pulled him closer. Gackt could not help but give in to the sweet kiss, the anger fading away slowly.
Mana smiled as he pulled back from the kiss
“Now how about some breakfast?”
