“Hey, Nino! Why are you here anyway? Not that I mind your company or something but I’m pretty sure you didn’t come to…” Aiba quickly went silent. “…to say what you just said…” he finished lamely after a heartbeat- short pause. “Other way you would’ve not tried to break down my poor door…” he added grinning.
“Oh! I totally forgot that!” Nino cried out.
“Forgot what?” Aiba asked curious.
“You and Oh-chan are in one of those magazines… There is a bunch of photos of you two. Coming out the hospital, holding hands, kissing, getting into a taxi together and all… the article joked about that there could be something more between you two than friendship and ‘member ai’… They even wrote that you look like you’re pregnant… So I wanted to know what you dragged Oh-chan into and kick you ass for it cause I thought it has to be your fault that Oh-chan got into that kind of magazine…” Nino explained.
“Really? Oh, my God! Satoshi! Dou shiou?...” Aiba jumped up from the couch and panicky run up and down in the living room.
“Oi! Stop it, Aibaka!” Nino shouted at him seeing his behavior and surprisingly Aiba obeyed to him immediately staring at Nino with wide eyes. “You do nothing. Sit down, I don’t think it helps to that kid in your tummy if you run in circles and if you hurt Oh-chan’s baby, I’ll kill you!...” Nino waited till Aiba sat down before talked again. “Johnny summoned him when I got to the jimusho in the morning but I don’t know what happened. You stay here and I go back to check on the situation. I’ll call you… Fuck! I’m already late from practice… It’s your fault, baka!” Nino grumbled before got up and left the apartment…
As soon as the door was closed behind him, Nino’s shoulders fell. All he wanted to curl up in a ball and cry miserably. It wasn’t just that he suddenly lost his confidence in the relationship between Sho and him after seeing the rapper’s reaction to the news; that it wasn’t just ‘Aiba is in love with Ohno’ anymore, but ‘Aiba and Ohno are a couple’. But after talking to Aiba, Nino suddenly remembered why he wanted to break off his friendship with Aiba in the first place. It wasn’t just jealousy or that he couldn’t stand even looking at Aiba for a while, that was too, but the main reason was that he needed someone to blame for this whole messed up situation. And he couldn’t blame Sho, since he was too much in love with him. He couldn’t blame Ohno either since he was the one who was always there to comfort him. So he was left with Aiba, but it was hard to hate or blame Aiba, even for the things he was at fault let alone this time… Cause they were best friends for years, they went through a lot together, and… well, because Aiba was Aiba and it made everything more difficult…
And Nino had to realize that he missed Aiba from his life…
Nino waste a lot more time than needed to go back. But right now - no matter what he promised to Aiba or how curious he was about what Johnny told to Ohno - he really didn’t feel like going back to face the others and answer their questions. Cause he was sure that at least Sho will have a lot of questions about Aiba…
Nino sighed, then took a deep breath before he entered the green room. To his biggest surprise all three of his band mates were there and - not so surprisingly - the mood was mournful the least.
“What happened?” he asked as he sat down next to Ohno - instead of Sho.
“Practice was postponed till you honor us to attend it…” Jun said mockingly.
“Thank you, Junnosuke, but fuck your practice. I really can’t care less about it!” Nino shot back on similar tone.
Jun opened his lips to retort but Sho preceded him:
“Cut it, would you? We have bigger problem right now than your childish quarrelling!”
Nino was taken aback at this since Sho seemed to be really angry. And it was months since he last shouted at Nino for fighting with Jun. Even if his scolding was addressed both Nino and Jun it didn’t make it better. Tiny glint of hurt shined in Nino’s hazel eyes and he quickly turned his head to Ohno who was still sulking silently next to him.
“What happened, Oh-chan?” he asked softly again and took Riidaa’s hand.
The oldest member sighed.
“Johnny said he won’t tolerate one more Arashi member getting involved with Masaki’s pregnancy and he ordered me to break up with him…” Riidaa said.
“And...?” Nino feared to ask it.
“I said no” Ohno answered on a strangely proud voice.
“And…?” Nino asked again, this time impatiently.
“He took back my individual jobs…” Ohno sighed leaning back on the couch.
“All of them?” Nino asked incredulously.
“All of them” Ohno nodded.
“Even that butai role?”
At this the artist just nodded without words.
“But you worked so hard for it! You waited for it…” Nino started.
“Stop it, Nino!” Jun shouted at him and the gamer immediately went silent, blinking at his band mate gotten frightened. “We all know it… just… don’t talk about it now, would you?” Jun said annoyed.
After this none said anything cause they simply didn’t know what to say. Cursing Johnny or declaring that he was unfair to Ohno would be useless cause everyone knew this already and it wouldn’t change anything. So they just remained silent, avoiding to even looking at each other till the dance instructor came for them.
Nino didn’t call Aiba whole day…
Later that night Nino was laying on the couch and stared blankly at whatever show was on the TV. He felt too weird, confused and depressed to play his games and it was surely the first time in his whole life!
Then his mobile started ringing on the coffee table. First he didn’t want to move picking it up, guessing it can be Aiba demanding why he didn’t call him. Then he realized that at this time Ohno must told him everything already so he wouldn’t bother call Nino too. Sighing Nino reached his hand out to grab his phone and looked at the caller ID. Sho-chan. Nino hesitated a little bit before answered the call. He really didn’t feel like talking with Sho now, but he avoided him all day - and the rapper must have noticed it - and it would be way too suspicious id he didn’t answer his call either.
“Moshi-moshi…”
“Hey, Kazu! What are you doing?” the newscaster asked cheerfully but somehow it sounded forced.
“Nothing much… though about going to bed…” Nino said trying to sound nonchalant.
“Oh… sorry, I won’t keep you from sleeping long just… wanted to ask something from you…” the older man’s voice became uncertain.
“Shoot” Nino said knowing very well what it will be.
“Ehm… how… was… Aiba-chan?...” Sho stuttered.
Nino clenched his hand into a fist.
“Pregnant” he said sarcastically.
“I know that but… was he okay…?” Sho asked again and this time his voice sounded disgustingly desperate.
“If you want to know about Aiba’s condition then call him or Oh-chan! I’m not the call-center!” Nino shot back impatiently. “And now I’m going to bed. Good night, Sakurai!” the gamer said then hang up not waiting for an answer or an excuse from his band mate…
On the other side of the town, Sho stared at his phone without blinking. He had no idea what just happened, but he knew one thing…
‘Good night, Sakurai…’
Nino called him ‘Sakurai’…
Though in the past months he didn’t remember that Nino was calling him other than ‘Sho-chan’…
He had a really, really bad feeling about it, but he just couldn’t put a finger on what exactly went wrong suddenly…
