May the angels protect you
Trouble neglect you
Aiba was pacing forth and back in circles. Sho’s getting dizzy by just looking at his boyfriend. What could be bothering him that much? Sho was wondering if he did anything wrong or did Aiba know something but couldn’t be told. Sho was thinking so much that he didn’t notice that Aiba was actually glancing at him from time to time.
“Masaki, are you ok?” Sho asked when he couldn’t stand it any longer. His head might crack if he were to continue thinking.
Aiba didn’t stop his pacing. He just shook his head saying that it’s nothing. But Sho wasn’t gonna buy that. Something’s bothering Aiba and he’s determined to find out. Sho went to Nino as Nino has been close friends with Aiba since really really long ago.
“Nino, do you know what’s bothering Masaki?” Sho questioned, hoping that he’ll get an answer.
“eh? Aiba-chan? Hmm..”
“Nino! If you know something please tell me!” Sho said, desperate.
“All I can say that it has something to do with you.” Nino concluded. “I will not entertain any more questions.” Nino said.
(After 2 days)
Sho still couldn’t figure out why Aiba was so bothered. And Nino saying that it has something to do with him didn’t help enlighten the situation. Just then, Aiba skipped into the room. Sho was shocked. One moment he was thinking what he did that made Aiba so bothered and the next moment he sees his boyfriend skipping in carefree.
Aiba sat next to Sho. Sho was staring at Aiba yet both kept quiet letting an uncomfortable silence fall in. Sho then noticed that there was a slight grin on Aiba’s face. Aiba got up and ran out of the house. Worried, Sho chased after him. Lost in his own thoughts, Sho continued to chase his Aiba while desperately thinking of stuff that he might have done to upset this boyfriend of his.
Upon reaching a playground filled with children playing, Aiba stopped. Sho nearly knocked into Aiba since Aiba suddenly stopped in front of him. The playground was happy. The smiling faces on the kids’ faces and the beautiful blue sky as view has made Sho smile unconsciously enjoying the view. Sho then felt a soft peck on his cheek. Sho turned to face Aiba who was smiling at him.
“Happy Birthday, dear” Aiba wished.
“eh?”
“Hah! I knew it! You forgot didn’t you..” Aiba laughed. “I was planning this since days ago.”
“…” then it clicked. “So you were bothered by my birthday???” Sho asked, shocked.
“Well, I don’t know what to get you so it was really giving me a headache.” Aiba confessed.. “Then I decided that we’ll go to the place where we first met. Talk about us and eat. I know the plans are quite simple but..”
Aiba wasn’t able to finish his sentence when Sho attacked his lips.
“I don’t need anything as long as you’re here with me.” Sho smiled, breaking the kiss.
“Sho-chan..” Aiba blushed. “We’re in public.”
“I don’t care.” Sho said.. “You’re the one who brought us here.”Sho smirked.
(At the home)
Sho was staring straight at the cake then at Aiba, eyes wide open.
“Masaki, you made this?”
“Unn~.. Worked hard for it too..” Aiba flashed his best smile.
Sho was smiling like an idiot, having his Masaki to do so many things just for his birthday.
“Make a wish and blow your candles.” Sho blew the candles.
“ne~ What’s your wish Sho-chan?” Aiba asked, curiosity killing him.
“hmm..should I tell?” Sho teased, Aiba nodded. “I wish that you’ll tell me all your problems in the future whether or not they’d be related to me. I don’t want to see your troubled face. Smiling Masaki is much cuter.” Sho smiled. “Masaki, I want to be the angel who will protect your smile and wash away your troubles.”
Aiba blushed and nodded. Sho tilted Aiba’s head and began kissing him passionately. The night was long and god knows what they did.
May you always have plenty
Your glass never empty
“Aiba Masaki!” Sho shouted as soon as he entered the house from work.
“hai~”
Sho pointed at the plate on the table which is untouched. Sho was practically glaring at Aiba. If looks could kill, Aiba would be dead.
“You haven’t even eaten your breakfast and it’s gonna be supper now..” Sho nagged.
“I don’t have the appetite and …” Aiba hesitated.
“and…?” Sho asked.
Aiba sighed. “I was packing for tomorrow’s flight and I sorta forgot about my meals.”
Aiba is going over to London due to work purposes. Sho was actually quite depressed till Aiba said he was going to be back in 2 days and will bring loads and loads of souvenirs for him which successfully immediately cheered the depressed Sho up.
“ahh, that reminds me…” Sho went into the master bedroom and took out his luggage bag.
“What’s that for?” Aiba asked, staring at his boyfriend.
“Isn’t it obvious dear.. It’s for you.”
Aiba was speechless. One bag was enough and Sho has brought out a luggage which is two times bigger than his bag. Sho went into the kitchen with the luggage in hand and placed it on the dining table opening it up. Sho took out all types of food that are filling and that are easy to eat because Aiba will be much too busy to sit down for a proper meal. Sho chucked all the different types of food, arranging them neatly in the luggage bag. Satisfied with his work, he closed the filled luggage and placed it next to Aiba’s bag.
“Masaki..”
“hmm?”
“I want to see this bag..” Sho pointed at his luggage. “at least half-empty when you return. Of course it’ll be even better if it’s totally emptied out into your tummy..” Sho laughed as he hugged Aiba when he said the word tummy.
“Sakurai Sho.. are you trying to make me gain weight..?” Aiba laughed.
“Not really. I just want you to remember to eat. Okay. Now let’s eat.” Sho said lifting Aiba off the floor into the dining table.
That night Sho made Aiba eat till he couldn’t consume anything anymore. Sho spent the whole night with Aiba enjoying each other’s presence.
“I’m gonna miss this.” Aiba said cuddling into Sho’s chest more.
“Me too..” and with that, they drifted to sleep.
(2 days later)
“Tadaima!” Aiba said as he entered the house. Sho was unable to pick him up at the airport due to work.
“Okaeri!” Sho shouted from the room.
Aiba entered the room with a glass of juice. Sho loves juice especially when he’s busy working. Sho took a sip and placed the glass on the table. Sho pulled the tired Aiba down to his lap which Aiba gladly complied. Sho hugged Aiba tightly from his seat, missing his scent and comfort.
“I love you.” Sho said in a soft tone.
Aiba heard it though. “Sho-chan, lemme tell you something.”
“hmm?” Sho lifted his head to look at Aiba.
“My love for you will always be true. Your glass of my love will never be empty. Never empty.” Aiba said, smiling.
Sho blushed, hiding his face in Aiba’s chest. Aiba lifted Sho’s head and gave him a light and soft kiss.
May your tears come from laughing
You find friends worth having
With every year passing
They mean more than gold
Aiba, Sho, Nino , Ohno and Jun were at Sho’s for Aiba’s birthday. Aiba was crying like a baby while laughing. Weird guy.
(5 hours ago)
Aiba was at work. Sho took the day off without informing Aiba. Nino, Ohno and Jun then appeared in front of his doorstep. All this seemed to be planned since Ohno were holding birthday decorations, Jun was holding ingredients for the food while Nino had the presents. Sho welcomed them in and they started working immediately. It was a surprise party. Besides Sho, the other three are really close friends. The five of them tend to hang out when they have time to spare. Preparations for the decoration and the cooking along with the cleaning up took them quite some time.
By the time they’ve finished everything, it was already 7, time for birthday boy to come home. They bath and got ready, waiting patiently for the door to click when Aiba returns.
“Tadai…” *pop!*
“Happy Birthday Masaki/Aiba-chan” the four guys cheered at the doorstep.
Aiba went inside still with a shocked expression. Sho would normally rather to celebrate these occasions with just the two of them and not the whole gang gathered. Aiba was quite amazed to what they’ve done to the house. The scent of delicious food coming from the dining table was much too tempting for anyone to resist.
The group sat down together and ate happily while they chatted about random things such as Jun’s new pet, Nino complaining about Ohno always leaving him alone and accompanied the sea of fishes instead. They’ve cleaned up the place together that includes Aiba since he insisted when the other four treated him the king of the day. Sho would brush his fingers with Aiba from time to time. After dinner, they all settled at the living room with Aiba sitting in-between Sho’s legs, Jun on the floor and Ohno lying on Nino’s lap.
“Aiba-chan, this is for you.” Nino said as he handed a package to Aiba.
Aiba carefully opened the doggy wrapper, not wanting to tear any of the dog‘s picture. Once it’s open, revealed a little doggy notepad. Aiba beamed, Nino smirked knowing he liked his gift.
“How..”
“You were eyeing it right..” Nino smiled and Aiba nodded.
“Jya, my turn.” Jun handed his gift.
Jun’s gift didn’t need to be unwrapped since it’s not even wrapped at all. It was a plain box containing a photobook filled with pictures of Aiba and Sho when they went for outings together. As expected from Jun the photographer. Jun has accumulated tons and tons of photos of the couple for this photobook.
“Jun-kun.. I love you..” Aiba smiled brightly.
“I know you do.” Jun smiled.
“Hey!!” Sho pouted, they all laughed.
Ohno on the other hand gave Aiba a painting. A painting he specially painted for Aiba’s birthday. With Sho kissing Aiba on the cheek and the other three cheered from behind. The painting was calming and sweet. Friends gathered having fun. Ohno’s gift was so wonderful that Aiba began to tear up.
“Oh-chan..” Ohno gave Aiba his warm smile telling him that he need not say anything and that he understood what Aiba was gonna say.
“Baby…” It was Sho’s turn.
Sho leaned down to kiss Aiba’s cheek. Slowly in front of their friends, Sho started to kiss Aiba’s lips. Not like they care, they were actually enjoying the scene. Ever so slowly they continued kissing and Ohno slowly reached out to get the painting off Aiba’s hands before they end up crumpling it. Sho slit his hands behind to his back pocket and fished up something. Still kissing nearly out of breath, Sho slipped the thing he just took out from his back pocket into Aiba’s finger. When they broke the kiss, his friends applauded!
“Masaki, will you marry me?” Sho knelt down in front of Aiba.
“Un~” Aiba nodded. Aiba broke into tears falling into Sho’s arms as they remained on the floor.
Aiba really do thank the Lord and all the angels who were watching over him that they’ve granted him friends that meant [more than] gold to him. And not forgetting a boyfriend, soon to be husband, that Aiba considered as his life which he wouldn’t be able to keep on living without.
May you win but stay humble
Smile more than grumble
Sho was fidgeting like crap at backstage. Aiba was paying full attention to the MC who’s trying to create suspense. Sho was sent to enter an English debate competition representing his company.
“The champion of this year’s debate competition is**drumrolls** SAKURAI SHO!”
Everyone applaud as Sho walked out nervously upon hearing his name. He won! He won! Aiba was so happy for him. As they were walking back home, Aiba took out a camera.
“Sho-chan.. smile” *clicks*
“Hey.. Don’t randomly take photos.. My face will look fat.” Sho pouted.
“jya.. kiss me on the cheek” Aiba grinned, as Sho leaned forward to reach his baby’s cheek.
As soon as Aiba could feel Sho’s lips on his cheek, he lifted his camera and *click*.. Aiba laughed as he took pictures of Sho from every single angle which Jun had taught him. Sho’s cheeks became pink.
“Masaki..” Sho slurred.
“Nani~?”
“umm.. ermm.. you’re not gonna post them are you?” Sho turned red.
“eh.. woops .. I just sent Jun some of the prize giving ceremony’s photos.” Aiba smiled innocently.
Sho slapped his forehead with his palm. Jun is so gonna tell the rest of the group and it’ll be a disaster later.
(That night)
“Sakurai Sho!! Why didn’t you tell you.. If it wasn’t for Jun we would’ve still been blurred.” Nino attacked Sho.
Sho just smiled but said nothing. The 5 friends spent precious time together, congratulating Sho from time to time.
The following weeks were spent fully on wedding preparations. Sometimes it tires Sho so much that he’ll grumble. Till one day, Aiba Masaki couldn’t stand Sho’s grumbling anymore. Aiba somehow managed to pin Sho onto the wall despite Sho being much stronger than he is. Aiba first kissed him then, Aiba licked his ear sending shivers to Sho’s spine.
“If you won’t stop grumbling, I’m gonna dump you.” Aiba smiled.
“Ehh….”
“Because the grumbling Sho’s not cute at all.” Aiba pouted. “I love the smiling Sho better..”
Sho smiled. “Say that again.. Say that you love me.”
“Love you dear.” Aiba stole a kiss from Sho’s lips.
“I love you too baby..” Sho caught Aiba. “Now let’s bath together.”
“Oi .. wait .. Shoooooooooo”
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Aiba was walking down the streets towards to supermarket. Supplies at home were running out so he had to do some stocking up. Aiba went alone today since Sho has work because their schedules are packed and Sho could not apply for a day off.
Aiba would usually talk to Sho when walking but today seemed a bit too quiet. A little too quiet for that matter of fact. Aiba stopped walking and looked around.
“Aiba-chan?” someone called him from the back.
“Jun-kun..” Aiba said , stunned to see Jun.
“Ahh.. Aiba-chan getto!” Jun said to Nino and Ohno who’s at the other end of the phone who’s also searching all over for this baka.
“Why are you here?” Aiba questioned.
“Sho called and said you haven’t called him since this morning and he got so worried when he couldn’t get to you so he called all of us out for a ‘Aiba Masaki search mission’.. I really felt like some agent going around searching for you.” Jun laughed.
“Owh.. Sho did..”
“Yup, he’s too busy to leave so he called us up.” Jun said while walking to the supermarket with Jun. “Sho said something about having a bad feeling that you’ll get hurt or something.”
“ne~ Actually, I really felt like something was following me a moment ago.” Aiba confessed.
“Aiba-chan, listen carefully. Don’t go through that area again. Honestly, as a photographer, I’ve heard several other photographers who caught pictures of the unknown around that area. There were also a few who came back and fell seriously ill.” Jun warned but not trying to scare Aiba as well. “Aiba-chan, you do know about your sensitivity.”
“Wait, you mean Sho-chan asked you guys to search for me. But how does he know that …”
“That’s because I’m in every beat of your heart Masaki..” Sho smiled, running towards them followed by Nino and Ohno.
“Sho-chan..!”
Sho hugged Aiba tightly as soon as the distance allowed him to. Sho’s warmth felt so comfortable that Aiba didn’t wanna move. The trio pulled the couple apart earning a smack from Sho while Aiba pouted. They then went shopping together. All 5 of them together, with Sho and Aiba walking together hand in hand.
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Sho and Aiba is at the living room tangled together watching tv.. Sho had something in mind but he didn’t know how express it correctly because one wrong word and that’s the end of their marriage. Aiba might file for a divorce and Sho might die of a heart-break. When Sho finally gathered enough courage..
“You have something to tell me right?” Aiba asked.
“unn~” Sho nodded.
Aiba reached for the remote control to turn off the tv. He untangled them and faced Sho seriously as he knows if Sho were to feel uncomfortable about something means it’s something serious.
“Masaki, I..” Sho started. Aiba placed his hands on Sho’s hand gripping on it.
“I got promoted and ..” Sho slurred. “I need to be in Beijing for a couple of months.” Sho said, slurring all the way.
“Wakatta,..” Aiba said , smiling. “and how much do you talk about me when you work?”
“huh? Nani~?” Sho asked, confused.
“You’re manager called me and told me that you’ve been promoted and needs to be in Beijing for work. He also told me not worry as you’ll be coming back.” Aiba smiled.
“Owh, he did?” Sho was stunned to hear that.
“Yup.. so I was wondering how much you talk about me that your manager personally called up to inform me.” Aiba laughed.
“You just don’t know how I missed you at work.” Sho smiled.
“I do. But I know I’m missing you more.” Aiba leaned forward for a kiss. They had totally forgotten what they were talking about as they kissed each other like crazy!
“So you’re not angry?” Sho asked, as he broke the kiss.
“Mou, you must spoil the moment don’t you.” Aiba pouted. “You’re my husband dear. I trust you. Moreover your manager personally called me.”
“Ahh, so if it’s not cause of manager-san I’ll have a angry husband in front of me?”
“Maybe..So you should thank him.” Aiba laughed, snuggling closer to Sho.
Sho hugged Aiba tightly bringing him closer to his body.
“ne~ what if there’s a plane crash or something and I can’t come back? What if ..” Sho was babbling thinking of nonsense as Aiba watched his husband freak out for not being able to return. Ignoring Sho, Aiba went into their room to grab something. Aiba came back with 2 necklaces. It looked like a broken heart with S craved on one and M craved on the other.
“I made it.. A friend taught me how to.” Aiba smiled, handling the M craved necklace to Sho.
Sho was staring at Aiba. He was speechless.
“This will represent us ne~ you’ll be wearing my name ‘M’ and I’ll be wearing yours ‘S’.. When the two come together it’ll be read as SM..” Aiba smiled brightly.
“Jya help me put it on.. I’ll help you put on yours.” Sho smiled.
Sho helped Aiba with his first and when Aiba was helping Sho with his, he whispered into his ear softly. “No matter how far you go, where you are going to, even if it’s the end of the world tomorrow.. My love will follow you, stay with you and shall be only for you.” Aiba nipped Sho’s ear, Sho blushed.
As much as I want it
I'm not gonna promise the cold winds won't blow
So when hard times have found you
And your fear surround you
Wrap my love around you
(In Beijing)
Sho was working when he heard his phone ring. Since he’s the one in charge there he had his permission to use the phone during office hours granted, partly also because he wanted to stay in touch with his baby at anywhere anytime. Aiba has texted him. Aiba rarely send him text messages as he’ll normally call him. Sho was worried and opened the text in no time. He wanted to make sure his husband is safe and in good condition.
To- Sho-chan
From- Masaki
Dear !!~ I miss you miss you miss you! Today ne~ Jun was a meanie.. He took a photo of Nino kissing me on the cheek and says he wanna bribe you!! Don’t listen to him ne~ (X_X) and and and Nino and Ohno made out on our BED !!! Jun stayed over as well.. I ended up sleeping in the living room. *pouts* I miss you dear! Come back soon?? (T.T) Sho-chan, I wanna kiss you!!! (>/////<) SHOOOO~
p.s- ignore me.. I’m just missing you.. ganbare ne~ and don’t flirt with other people *glares*
Sho couldn’t help but giggle at how cute his Masaki is. Sho has actually set up a plan for his beloved husband. He missed him so much that he did it. Sho went home immediately after work that day. As soon as he reached home, he took down a box which was placed at a high and hidden place. Inside the box was filled with loads of random stuff, a heart-shaped photo frame, a doggy shaped alarm clock, a doggy notepad which has different types of dogs at each page, and a lot of other random stuff he bought that remains him of his Aiba. Sho attached his letter and went to the post office that very night. He wanted the package to be delivered to Aiba as soon as possible.
(In Japan)
Aiba was sitting on the couch watching TV when Jun suddenly appeared from the washroom.
“Why are you always crashing at my house again?”
“coz I want to.” Jun smiled.
“Well, I’m gonna shoo you out when Sho returns.” Aiba grinned.
The doorbell rang out of sudden making the two jump in surprise. Aiba opened the door to find Nino standing at the doorstep.
“Delivery for Aiba Masaki.. It’s from Beijing.” Nino smirked.
It seems like Nino took up a part time being the postman. Aiba signed and took the box into the house without closing the door. Jun had to close it for him instead.
“Sho-chan..” Aiba mumbled as he unwrap package.
Inside was packed with weird and random stuff. There was a letter attached to it. Aiba slowly removed the envelope and unfolded the paper with his shaky hands.
Baby dear,
How have you been? Doing good? I’m happy that you call me every night. It gives me the energy to work the next day. (^.^) I’ve ne~ I’ve been shopping a lot lately.. Not on purpose though. I’m usually just walking around when something catches my attention. Hmm, there’s this heart-shaped photo frame which i thought would look nice with our photo in it if it’s place on the bed shelf.. (> <) And there’s also a doggy notepad.. It has loads of dog pictures in it.. I’m sure you’ll love it .. There’s also quite a number of junk which I bought like this shirt that says ‘he’s my boyfriend --’ and some other random stuff.. It’s ALL yours baby.. And lets not forget that I’m also gonna be all yours when I come home ne~ LOVE YOU XOXOXOXO
P.S- I got your message.. Daijoubu .. I choose to trust you than those idiots.. (^.^)v .. and WHAT !! Ohno and Nino using OUR bed!! YOU SLEEP IN THE LIVING ROOM !!?? They are so busted when I’m back.. How can they let MY baby sleep in the living room of MY house when their using MY bed making out!! *glares* hmmph ..
P.P.S.- I miss you loads too !!! I wanna attack you when I return ne~ Love you XOXOXOXO I should be back in 3 days or so ne~ LOVE YOU AGAIN XOXOXO ahhh I can’t stop writing..
As Aiba was reading the letter Aiba was smiling to himself but crying as well. Aiba couldn’t believe Sho bought so many things just because those reminded him of Aiba. Aiba then noticed the back of the letter has a note too. He flipped it over and continues to read.
Masaki dear,
Honestly I would rather not say this but I can’t promise you that you won’t face unwanted problems in life when I’m away as I’m now. I truly and dearly missed you that I would stare at the necklace every night until I fall asleep.
Baby, always remember that I’ll always be here for you. When bad things really do happen, and fear were to find its way into your heart. Remember that I’ll be there. I’ll wrap my love around you that you won’t be able to feel the fear that the devil’s casting upon you.
Aiba Masaki, I LOVE YOU LIKE HECK I LOVE YOU LOADSSSS!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Love Sho….
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
Aiba and Sho have been married for years now and they’re still stable.. Still wearing the necklaces that contains lots of love. By the bed’s shelf placed a heart-shaped frame with a photo of Sho and Aiba sleeping in each other’s arms. The house was warm with love and care which the couple enjoyed. The other three would drop by once in a while. After the incident when Sho gave them a huge lecture about letting Aiba sleep in the living room, they wouldn’t dare to go to their house with or without Sho around. They’re still friends of course but as long as Aiba doesn’t end up in the living room and catching a cold then its fine with Sho.
Sho and Aiba clearly showed that they couldn’t live without each other. They would sacrifice anything just to be together. They were inseparable. Their lives were made into one. Sho would know when Aiba feels uncomfortable and Aiba would know when Sho’s feeling unhealthy.. It works vice versa. They need not ask for more than just being together. They were more than satisfied to have each other in their lives.
Sho and Aiba made a sealed kiss promise that their love for each other will remain and their love will follow one another and shall stay and be of comfort to the other because there’s no way, they will leave each other. As the promise ends, Sho concealed another passionate kiss of Aiba’s.
“Baby, you’re never alone.”

“Aiba Masaki!” Sho shouted as soon as he entered the house from work.
“hai~”
Sho pointed at the plate on the table which is untouched. Sho was practically glaring at Aiba. If looks could kill, Aiba would be dead.
“You haven’t even eaten your breakfast and it’s gonna be supper now..” Sho nagged.
“I don’t have the appetite and …” Aiba hesitated.
“and…?” Sho asked.
Aiba sighed. “I was packing for tomorrow’s flight and I sorta forgot about my meals.”
Aiba is going over to London due to work purposes. Sho was actually quite depressed till Aiba said he was going to be back in 2 days and will bring loads and loads of souvenirs for him which successfully immediately cheered the depressed Sho up.
“ahh, that reminds me…” Sho went into the master bedroom and took out his luggage bag.
“What’s that for?” Aiba asked, staring at his boyfriend.
“Isn’t it obvious dear.. It’s for you.”
Aiba was speechless. One bag was enough and Sho has brought out a luggage which is two times bigger than his bag. Sho went into the kitchen with the luggage in hand and placed it on the dining table opening it up. Sho took out all types of food that are filling and that are easy to eat because Aiba will be much too busy to sit down for a proper meal. Sho chucked all the different types of food, arranging them neatly in the luggage bag. Satisfied with his work, he closed the filled luggage and placed it next to Aiba’s bag.
“Masaki..”
“hmm?”
“I want to see this bag..” Sho pointed at his luggage. “at least half-empty when you return. Of course it’ll be even better if it’s totally emptied out into your tummy..” Sho laughed as he hugged Aiba when he said the word tummy.
“Sakurai Sho.. are you trying to make me gain weight..?” Aiba laughed.
“Not really. I just want you to remember to eat. Okay. Now let’s eat.” Sho said lifting Aiba off the floor into the dining table.
That night Sho made Aiba eat till he couldn’t consume anything anymore. Sho spent the whole night with Aiba enjoying each other’s presence.
“I’m gonna miss this.” Aiba said cuddling into Sho’s chest more.
“Me too..” and with that, they drifted to sleep.
(2 days later)
“Tadaima!” Aiba said as he entered the house. Sho was unable to pick him up at the airport due to work.
“Okaeri!” Sho shouted from the room.
Aiba entered the room with a glass of juice. Sho loves juice especially when he’s busy working. Sho took a sip and placed the glass on the table. Sho pulled the tired Aiba down to his lap which Aiba gladly complied. Sho hugged Aiba tightly from his seat, missing his scent and comfort.
“I love you.” Sho said in a soft tone.
Aiba heard it though. “Sho-chan, lemme tell you something.”
“hmm?” Sho lifted his head to look at Aiba.
“My love for you will always be true. Your glass of my love will never be empty. Never empty.” Aiba said, smiling.
Sho blushed, hiding his face in Aiba’s chest. Aiba lifted Sho’s head and gave him a light and soft kiss.
May your tears come from laughing
You find friends worth having
With every year passing
They mean more than gold
Aiba, Sho, Nino , Ohno and Jun were at Sho’s for Aiba’s birthday. Aiba was crying like a baby while laughing. Weird guy.
(5 hours ago)
Aiba was at work. Sho took the day off without informing Aiba. Nino, Ohno and Jun then appeared in front of his doorstep. All this seemed to be planned since Ohno were holding birthday decorations, Jun was holding ingredients for the food while Nino had the presents. Sho welcomed them in and they started working immediately. It was a surprise party. Besides Sho, the other three are really close friends. The five of them tend to hang out when they have time to spare. Preparations for the decoration and the cooking along with the cleaning up took them quite some time.
By the time they’ve finished everything, it was already 7, time for birthday boy to come home. They bath and got ready, waiting patiently for the door to click when Aiba returns.
“Tadai…” *pop!*
“Happy Birthday Masaki/Aiba-chan” the four guys cheered at the doorstep.
Aiba went inside still with a shocked expression. Sho would normally rather to celebrate these occasions with just the two of them and not the whole gang gathered. Aiba was quite amazed to what they’ve done to the house. The scent of delicious food coming from the dining table was much too tempting for anyone to resist.
The group sat down together and ate happily while they chatted about random things such as Jun’s new pet, Nino complaining about Ohno always leaving him alone and accompanied the sea of fishes instead. They’ve cleaned up the place together that includes Aiba since he insisted when the other four treated him the king of the day. Sho would brush his fingers with Aiba from time to time. After dinner, they all settled at the living room with Aiba sitting in-between Sho’s legs, Jun on the floor and Ohno lying on Nino’s lap.
“Aiba-chan, this is for you.” Nino said as he handed a package to Aiba.
Aiba carefully opened the doggy wrapper, not wanting to tear any of the dog‘s picture. Once it’s open, revealed a little doggy notepad. Aiba beamed, Nino smirked knowing he liked his gift.
“How..”
“You were eyeing it right..” Nino smiled and Aiba nodded.
“Jya, my turn.” Jun handed his gift.
Jun’s gift didn’t need to be unwrapped since it’s not even wrapped at all. It was a plain box containing a photobook filled with pictures of Aiba and Sho when they went for outings together. As expected from Jun the photographer. Jun has accumulated tons and tons of photos of the couple for this photobook.
“Jun-kun.. I love you..” Aiba smiled brightly.
“I know you do.” Jun smiled.
“Hey!!” Sho pouted, they all laughed.
Ohno on the other hand gave Aiba a painting. A painting he specially painted for Aiba’s birthday. With Sho kissing Aiba on the cheek and the other three cheered from behind. The painting was calming and sweet. Friends gathered having fun. Ohno’s gift was so wonderful that Aiba began to tear up.
“Oh-chan..” Ohno gave Aiba his warm smile telling him that he need not say anything and that he understood what Aiba was gonna say.
“Baby…” It was Sho’s turn.
Sho leaned down to kiss Aiba’s cheek. Slowly in front of their friends, Sho started to kiss Aiba’s lips. Not like they care, they were actually enjoying the scene. Ever so slowly they continued kissing and Ohno slowly reached out to get the painting off Aiba’s hands before they end up crumpling it. Sho slit his hands behind to his back pocket and fished up something. Still kissing nearly out of breath, Sho slipped the thing he just took out from his back pocket into Aiba’s finger. When they broke the kiss, his friends applauded!
“Masaki, will you marry me?” Sho knelt down in front of Aiba.
“Un~” Aiba nodded. Aiba broke into tears falling into Sho’s arms as they remained on the floor.
Aiba really do thank the Lord and all the angels who were watching over him that they’ve granted him friends that meant [more than] gold to him. And not forgetting a boyfriend, soon to be husband, that Aiba considered as his life which he wouldn’t be able to keep on living without.
May you win but stay humble
Smile more than grumble
Sho was fidgeting like crap at backstage. Aiba was paying full attention to the MC who’s trying to create suspense. Sho was sent to enter an English debate competition representing his company.
“The champion of this year’s debate competition is**drumrolls** SAKURAI SHO!”
Everyone applaud as Sho walked out nervously upon hearing his name. He won! He won! Aiba was so happy for him. As they were walking back home, Aiba took out a camera.
“Sho-chan.. smile” *clicks*
“Hey.. Don’t randomly take photos.. My face will look fat.” Sho pouted.
“jya.. kiss me on the cheek” Aiba grinned, as Sho leaned forward to reach his baby’s cheek.
As soon as Aiba could feel Sho’s lips on his cheek, he lifted his camera and *click*.. Aiba laughed as he took pictures of Sho from every single angle which Jun had taught him. Sho’s cheeks became pink.
“Masaki..” Sho slurred.
“Nani~?”
“umm.. ermm.. you’re not gonna post them are you?” Sho turned red.
“eh.. woops .. I just sent Jun some of the prize giving ceremony’s photos.” Aiba smiled innocently.
Sho slapped his forehead with his palm. Jun is so gonna tell the rest of the group and it’ll be a disaster later.
(That night)
“Sakurai Sho!! Why didn’t you tell you.. If it wasn’t for Jun we would’ve still been blurred.” Nino attacked Sho.
Sho just smiled but said nothing. The 5 friends spent precious time together, congratulating Sho from time to time.
The following weeks were spent fully on wedding preparations. Sometimes it tires Sho so much that he’ll grumble. Till one day, Aiba Masaki couldn’t stand Sho’s grumbling anymore. Aiba somehow managed to pin Sho onto the wall despite Sho being much stronger than he is. Aiba first kissed him then, Aiba licked his ear sending shivers to Sho’s spine.
“If you won’t stop grumbling, I’m gonna dump you.” Aiba smiled.
“Ehh….”
“Because the grumbling Sho’s not cute at all.” Aiba pouted. “I love the smiling Sho better..”
Sho smiled. “Say that again.. Say that you love me.”
“Love you dear.” Aiba stole a kiss from Sho’s lips.
“I love you too baby..” Sho caught Aiba. “Now let’s bath together.”
“Oi .. wait .. Shoooooooooo”
I'll be in every beat of your heart
When you face the unknown
Aiba was walking down the streets towards to supermarket. Supplies at home were running out so he had to do some stocking up. Aiba went alone today since Sho has work because their schedules are packed and Sho could not apply for a day off.
Aiba would usually talk to Sho when walking but today seemed a bit too quiet. A little too quiet for that matter of fact. Aiba stopped walking and looked around.
“Aiba-chan?” someone called him from the back.
“Jun-kun..” Aiba said , stunned to see Jun.
“Ahh.. Aiba-chan getto!” Jun said to Nino and Ohno who’s at the other end of the phone who’s also searching all over for this baka.
“Why are you here?” Aiba questioned.
“Sho called and said you haven’t called him since this morning and he got so worried when he couldn’t get to you so he called all of us out for a ‘Aiba Masaki search mission’.. I really felt like some agent going around searching for you.” Jun laughed.
“Owh.. Sho did..”
“Yup, he’s too busy to leave so he called us up.” Jun said while walking to the supermarket with Jun. “Sho said something about having a bad feeling that you’ll get hurt or something.”
“ne~ Actually, I really felt like something was following me a moment ago.” Aiba confessed.
“Aiba-chan, listen carefully. Don’t go through that area again. Honestly, as a photographer, I’ve heard several other photographers who caught pictures of the unknown around that area. There were also a few who came back and fell seriously ill.” Jun warned but not trying to scare Aiba as well. “Aiba-chan, you do know about your sensitivity.”
“Wait, you mean Sho-chan asked you guys to search for me. But how does he know that …”
“That’s because I’m in every beat of your heart Masaki..” Sho smiled, running towards them followed by Nino and Ohno.
“Sho-chan..!”
Sho hugged Aiba tightly as soon as the distance allowed him to. Sho’s warmth felt so comfortable that Aiba didn’t wanna move. The trio pulled the couple apart earning a smack from Sho while Aiba pouted. They then went shopping together. All 5 of them together, with Sho and Aiba walking together hand in hand.
Wherever you fly
This isn't goodbye
My love will follow you stay with you
Sho and Aiba is at the living room tangled together watching tv.. Sho had something in mind but he didn’t know how express it correctly because one wrong word and that’s the end of their marriage. Aiba might file for a divorce and Sho might die of a heart-break. When Sho finally gathered enough courage..
“You have something to tell me right?” Aiba asked.
“unn~” Sho nodded.
Aiba reached for the remote control to turn off the tv. He untangled them and faced Sho seriously as he knows if Sho were to feel uncomfortable about something means it’s something serious.
“Masaki, I..” Sho started. Aiba placed his hands on Sho’s hand gripping on it.
“I got promoted and ..” Sho slurred. “I need to be in Beijing for a couple of months.” Sho said, slurring all the way.
“Wakatta,..” Aiba said , smiling. “and how much do you talk about me when you work?”
“huh? Nani~?” Sho asked, confused.
“You’re manager called me and told me that you’ve been promoted and needs to be in Beijing for work. He also told me not worry as you’ll be coming back.” Aiba smiled.
“Owh, he did?” Sho was stunned to hear that.
“Yup.. so I was wondering how much you talk about me that your manager personally called up to inform me.” Aiba laughed.
“You just don’t know how I missed you at work.” Sho smiled.
“I do. But I know I’m missing you more.” Aiba leaned forward for a kiss. They had totally forgotten what they were talking about as they kissed each other like crazy!
“So you’re not angry?” Sho asked, as he broke the kiss.
“Mou, you must spoil the moment don’t you.” Aiba pouted. “You’re my husband dear. I trust you. Moreover your manager personally called me.”
“Ahh, so if it’s not cause of manager-san I’ll have a angry husband in front of me?”
“Maybe..So you should thank him.” Aiba laughed, snuggling closer to Sho.
Sho hugged Aiba tightly bringing him closer to his body.
“ne~ what if there’s a plane crash or something and I can’t come back? What if ..” Sho was babbling thinking of nonsense as Aiba watched his husband freak out for not being able to return. Ignoring Sho, Aiba went into their room to grab something. Aiba came back with 2 necklaces. It looked like a broken heart with S craved on one and M craved on the other.
“I made it.. A friend taught me how to.” Aiba smiled, handling the M craved necklace to Sho.
Sho was staring at Aiba. He was speechless.
“This will represent us ne~ you’ll be wearing my name ‘M’ and I’ll be wearing yours ‘S’.. When the two come together it’ll be read as SM..” Aiba smiled brightly.
“Jya help me put it on.. I’ll help you put on yours.” Sho smiled.
Sho helped Aiba with his first and when Aiba was helping Sho with his, he whispered into his ear softly. “No matter how far you go, where you are going to, even if it’s the end of the world tomorrow.. My love will follow you, stay with you and shall be only for you.” Aiba nipped Sho’s ear, Sho blushed.
As much as I want it
I'm not gonna promise the cold winds won't blow
So when hard times have found you
And your fear surround you
Wrap my love around you
(In Beijing)
Sho was working when he heard his phone ring. Since he’s the one in charge there he had his permission to use the phone during office hours granted, partly also because he wanted to stay in touch with his baby at anywhere anytime. Aiba has texted him. Aiba rarely send him text messages as he’ll normally call him. Sho was worried and opened the text in no time. He wanted to make sure his husband is safe and in good condition.
To- Sho-chan
From- Masaki
Dear !!~ I miss you miss you miss you! Today ne~ Jun was a meanie.. He took a photo of Nino kissing me on the cheek and says he wanna bribe you!!

Sho couldn’t help but giggle at how cute his Masaki is. Sho has actually set up a plan for his beloved husband. He missed him so much that he did it. Sho went home immediately after work that day. As soon as he reached home, he took down a box which was placed at a high and hidden place. Inside the box was filled with loads of random stuff, a heart-shaped photo frame, a doggy shaped alarm clock, a doggy notepad which has different types of dogs at each page, and a lot of other random stuff he bought that remains him of his Aiba. Sho attached his letter and went to the post office that very night. He wanted the package to be delivered to Aiba as soon as possible.
(In Japan)
Aiba was sitting on the couch watching TV when Jun suddenly appeared from the washroom.
“Why are you always crashing at my house again?”
“coz I want to.” Jun smiled.
“Well, I’m gonna shoo you out when Sho returns.” Aiba grinned.
The doorbell rang out of sudden making the two jump in surprise. Aiba opened the door to find Nino standing at the doorstep.
“Delivery for Aiba Masaki.. It’s from Beijing.” Nino smirked.
It seems like Nino took up a part time being the postman. Aiba signed and took the box into the house without closing the door. Jun had to close it for him instead.
“Sho-chan..” Aiba mumbled as he unwrap package.
Inside was packed with weird and random stuff. There was a letter attached to it. Aiba slowly removed the envelope and unfolded the paper with his shaky hands.
Baby dear,
How have you been? Doing good? I’m happy that you call me every night. It gives me the energy to work the next day. (^.^) I’ve ne~ I’ve been shopping a lot lately.. Not on purpose though. I’m usually just walking around when something catches my attention. Hmm, there’s this heart-shaped photo frame which i thought would look nice with our photo in it if it’s place on the bed shelf.. (> <) And there’s also a doggy notepad.. It has loads of dog pictures in it.. I’m sure you’ll love it .. There’s also quite a number of junk which I bought like this shirt that says ‘he’s my boyfriend --’ and some other random stuff.. It’s ALL yours baby.. And lets not forget that I’m also gonna be all yours when I come home ne~ LOVE YOU XOXOXOXO

P.P.S.- I miss you loads too !!! I wanna attack you when I return ne~ Love you XOXOXOXO I should be back in 3 days or so ne~ LOVE YOU AGAIN XOXOXO ahhh I can’t stop writing..
As Aiba was reading the letter Aiba was smiling to himself but crying as well. Aiba couldn’t believe Sho bought so many things just because those reminded him of Aiba. Aiba then noticed the back of the letter has a note too. He flipped it over and continues to read.
Masaki dear,
Honestly I would rather not say this but I can’t promise you that you won’t face unwanted problems in life when I’m away as I’m now. I truly and dearly missed you that I would stare at the necklace every night until I fall asleep.
Baby, always remember that I’ll always be here for you. When bad things really do happen, and fear were to find its way into your heart. Remember that I’ll be there. I’ll wrap my love around you that you won’t be able to feel the fear that the devil’s casting upon you.
Aiba Masaki, I LOVE YOU LIKE HECK I LOVE YOU LOADSSSS!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Love Sho….
My love will follow you stay with you
Baby you're never alone
Aiba and Sho have been married for years now and they’re still stable.. Still wearing the necklaces that contains lots of love. By the bed’s shelf placed a heart-shaped frame with a photo of Sho and Aiba sleeping in each other’s arms. The house was warm with love and care which the couple enjoyed. The other three would drop by once in a while. After the incident when Sho gave them a huge lecture about letting Aiba sleep in the living room, they wouldn’t dare to go to their house with or without Sho around. They’re still friends of course but as long as Aiba doesn’t end up in the living room and catching a cold then its fine with Sho.
Sho and Aiba clearly showed that they couldn’t live without each other. They would sacrifice anything just to be together. They were inseparable. Their lives were made into one. Sho would know when Aiba feels uncomfortable and Aiba would know when Sho’s feeling unhealthy.. It works vice versa. They need not ask for more than just being together. They were more than satisfied to have each other in their lives.
Sho and Aiba made a sealed kiss promise that their love for each other will remain and their love will follow one another and shall stay and be of comfort to the other because there’s no way, they will leave each other. As the promise ends, Sho concealed another passionate kiss of Aiba’s.
“Baby, you’re never alone.”
