nekochan25Notes: I divided it in 4 parts, so every part is a bit short, I'm sorry :S
NA: thanks to all those who commented! And also to those who only read <3
I'm happy to see you've liked the first part, even if it was so short XD
In this one, I think you will able to understand more about Aiba's reasons!
(and remind that this is ANGST, ok? No too tragic things, but... the happy ending is not guaranteed!!)
Nino wasn’t satisfied.
Okay, Sho-kun no longer had mood swings like a pregnant woman and he had stopped tear people apart for every single thing. Furthermore, Aiba hadn’t done any damage during rehearsals.
But he wasn’t satisfied in the least. Definitely. The relaxed atmosphere there was some time ago wasn’t there. It had a sort of icy feeling. They were inside a bubble that was ready to burst at the first. And then it would be trouble.
His gaze wandered around the room during a break. Jun was reading a newspaper that Sho had lent him with a bored look. Ohno was dozing with his head on Nino’s lap. Aiba was nibbling a sandwich listlessly and Sho was focused on the text he was writing on his mobile phone, looking up at the ceiling from time to time like he was thinking about what to write.
He and Haruko were probably in love-love mode again, judging from the amount of time Sakurai spent on his mobile and from the text messages Nino had read secretly. Nino opened his eyes wide when he thought about the date on which the first messages were sent and received... It more or less coincided with the beginning of Aiba-chan’s Dark Period. Nino frantically began to think. What if...? Maybe he was the only one who saw a link between those two things? He looked at the other members. Yes, that was more than probable. He had the chance to make things clear.Yes, there was also the possibility of making a mess and ruining everything, but...
He grinned. Well, who cares.
-Sho-chan!- he exclaimed making Riida jump from the sudden yell -So you’re with Haruko-chan again, right? Waaaa, you really made the right choice, you know? She’s so cute!!-
He ignored Ohno and Jun’s stares, focusing only on Sho and sometimes peeking at Aiba, who visibly had gone stiff. Actually, with that girly exclamation Nino really went out of his character. He had never cared about ‘Haruko-chan’ or any another girl that warmed his friends’ bed.
Sakurai blushed a bit scratching his nape,
-Erm...-
-Come on! We’ve all noticed, you know! Recently you’ve been walking on a pink cloud!!!-
God, Nino was ashamed like a thief to be blinking and squealing in that way, but it was NECESSARY. It was all for the greater good.
-Uhm... well, yes... I think that we can now consider ourselves in... a serious relationship, I think...-
He muttered in an embarrassed tone with slightly flushed cheeks.
-What a wonderful thing!! Ne~... when two person are bound by the red thread of destiny…-
Finally that shameful pantomime paid him off; Aiba suddenly rose from his chair and he quickly headed for the door. He realized that MAYBE he should give an explanation only after he had opened the door.
-Toilet
Aiba spat between his teeth before going out, slamming the door. After a few seconds Sho rose too and followed him without giving any explanation. All this for the sake of Nino’s happiness; the Emotional Destruction Machine Sakurai Sho and the Depressed and Schizoid Creature Aiba Masaki had returned in all their glory. And in version 2.1.
With a satisfied sigh, Nino ran his hand through Ohno’s soft hair, who was staring at him with a frown.
-Nino, what the...-
Nino let out an annoyed snort; he did not want to explain everything.
-There are three possibilities: Masaki wants Haruko and Sho knows it, he wants Sho and Sho knows it, or he wants Sho and Sho thinks that he wants Haruko... yes, those are the possibilities.
They heard an admiring whistle coming from Jun.
-And...?-
Matsumoto asked while moving his hand, asking him to continue explaining his plan.
-‘And’ nothing. Now it’s their turn. Even Evil Geniuses have their limits. We’ll see WHO will survive and HOW they’ll come back.
