Title: You Thought Wrong
Genre: Drama, Romance
Pairing: Ryoda
Summary: Ueda Tatsuya thought there’s zero percent chance his love will be returned. So he thought the best way is to move on with his life. He thought he’d be satisfied just to see him and love him from afar. Nishikido Ryo, on the other hand, thought that he hates Ueda Tatsuya-or at least that’s what he wants other people to think-when in fact, he’s in love with Tatsuya. He thought that since he’s been cruel to the older man, there would never be a chance for him to love him back. Oh, how wrong they both were!

CHAPTER 1
Ueda Tatsuya walked into the studio and greeted everyone with a smile. He's in a good mood because NEWS and KAT-TUN have a photoshoot together. He's been looking forward to it the whole week. Because that means he can steal glances at Nishikido Ryo. Yes, he is in love with the Sexy Osaka Man despite the fact that Ryo is the reason he cried a lot during their years as juniors.
He sat at the make-up table and let the stylist fix him up while watching the love of his life through the mirror. Across the room, Nishikido is chatting with YamaPi.
"Ne Ryo," YamaPi asked. "I heard you were going to be the print ad model for Eliza!”
“Yeah,” said Ryo nonchalantly. “I went to a meeting earlier. How’d you know about that anyway?”
“Duh! It’s Eliza! She’s like one of the famous young designers in Japan! I’ve seen her latest collection and every single outfit is gorgeous!”
“I didn’t know you’re a fan.”
“No, not really a fan but I do wish I was chosen to be the model! Heck! I’m taller than you!”
“Oi!” Ryo glared at Yamapi who just laughed. “And it’s not my fault designers want me to be their model. I’m the Sexy Osaka Man after all! The girl they should partner with me should be beautiful!”
“Eh?! You have a partner? Who is she? Have you seen her?"
“Well… Sort of… I didn't really see her face. She was sitting across the conference table from me and she has her sunglasses on the whole time. I haven't heard her name before so I'm not sure if she is model. Someone said she’s a good friend of the designer. Her name’s something like Kat… Katrina? Yes, Katrina.”
Tatsuya, who was listening in to the conversation, was curious. ‘I guess it was just a coincidence. But there’s only one designer named Eliza that I know with a good friend named Katrina. But that couldn’t be. She’s not a model although it’d be great if she’s one. Well, I guess I can ask her.’
“Arigatou,” said Tatsuya as the stylist finished prepping him up. He grabbed his phone and dialed a number he knows by heart.
Ring Ring
“Tatsu! What's up?!” said a sweet female voice. “Missed me already?”
Tatsuya laughed at the greeting which caught someone's attention. ‘Ueda is laughing?! Ahh~ he's really pretty when he's smiling, ne? Wait! Who is he talking on the phone to?’ he thought as he trained his ears to listen more closely.
“We just had dinner together last night! But yes, I miss you already! But that's not the reason I called,” answered Tatsuya.
“Anything I can help you with, darling?” came the answer from the other line.
“Well, I heard something but I want to make sure first before I throw a tantrum.” He was answered with a melodic laugh while walking out of the room to get some privacy. “Were you by any chance modeling for Eliza?”
“Ahh! Gomen! I forgot to tell you about that! But anyways, why should I tell you every single thing about my life?” she answered with mock annoyance.
“I can name a few reasons. First, you love me so much you don’t keep secrets from me. And second, because I tell you all the sordid details of my life, too?” he answered with a pout.
“Yes, unfortunately,” she answered with a sigh. “Even though I don't want to know half of it. Ah! I think I know why you're mad at me! So, how about you drop by at the hotel later tonight and I'll tell you all about it?”
“Tatchan! We'd be starting in 5 minutes,” called Kame from the door of the studio. Tatsuya answered with an OK sign and start walking back to the studio.
“That's fine. I have to get back inside. I'll see you later, ne Katrina?”
“Yeah, yeah, I know you have a different reason why you want to meet me! I hate you!”
“I love you too! I always do! See you later, ne?” answered Tatsuya sweetly before hanging up. A smile playing on his lips while thinking about Katrina.
On the another part of the room, a pair of eyes is watching Tatsuya intently. A lot of questions went unanswered in his mind.
‘Who is he talking to? Why does he seem so happy?’ He paid closer attention to Tatsuya's phone call. ‘He had dinner with someone last night? Is he in a relationship? Argh! Why do you have to walk out of the room?! I need to know!’
A few minutes later, Tatsuya came back into the room just when he was saying “I love you” on the phone. ‘What the?! Who’s he saying I love you to? It must be his sister or his mom. That must be it. He’s not in a relationship,’ he lied to himself. ‘Because he's supposed to be saying those words to me! Not to someone else!’ He thought smugly.
As Tatsuya walk into the studio, he passed by Nishikido who was standing near the entrance.
“Oi, Fishlips! Stop daydreaming! The photo shoot has started and you're holding us all up!”
Tatsuya looked at Ryo and just smiled brightly before walking towards the set. ’I won’t let you spoil my mood today,’ Tatsuya thought. ’I have to think about Katrina so that I won’t be affected by Nishikido!’ On the other hand, Ryo was left dumbfounded and stunned by that smile.
The photo shoot went smoothly albeit some snide comments from Ryo which Tatsuya always answered with a smile. ‘No one ignores the Sexy Osaka Man,' Ryo thought. But after a while, Nishikido got tired of teasing him because he wasn’t getting his desired effect from the older male and just let him be.
“Tatchan, let's go out for a drink. Everyone's coming,” Koyama said while packing his things.
“Sorry, but I have to pass. I already have plans for tonight,” Tatsuya decline politely.
“You have a date?” someone standing near the door said.
“JIN!” Everyone greeted him.
“Yo! So Tat-chan, who’s your date? I didn’t know you have a girlfriend,” Jin teased.
“Who would want to date a prissy princess?!” Ryo commented with a snort.
Tatsuya didn’t make a comment and just smiled. He turned to Jin and said, “Maybe I’ll introduce her to you sometime.” He turned to the rest of the group and said, “Guys, I’ll go ahead! See you tomorrow! Enjoy the night!” before leaving.
“Tat-chan seems to be in a really good mood,” Jin commented.
“He is! He wasn’t even affected by Ryo’s teasing. He’s smiling the whole afternoon,” Nakamaru supplied.
Tatsuya left the building and walked to his car. He pulled out slowly and joined the traffic unaware the car tailing him from behind. The car sped ahead when Tatsuya entered the hotel driveway and dropped his car to the valet.
