Summary: Inoo’s childhood friend Yabu tells him that his boyfriend, Takaki, is cheating on him. When Inoo doesn’t believe him, Yabu confronts Takaki. Takaki says that Yabu’s lying and tells Inoo to trust him. Who will Inoo believe?
The next morning Inoo was the first one to wake up. He sat up in bed and looked at Takaki’s peacefully, sleeping face. He smiled to himself and pecked the elder’s lips before he stood up and walked downstairs. He felt much better today, not sick at all (little pain in his lower back though)
He made some breakfast and peacefully ate it while humming ‘everybody go’ to himself. He cleaned up and saw that it has been 75 minutes since he had woken up.
‘’Yuya must be really tired to be still sleeping this late. I think I’ll make him his beloved omelet rice’
With that thought he started cooking again and brought it upstairs. When he entered their room he placed the food on a small nightstand. He bends down next to the bed and caressed Takaki’s hair while softly calling his name.
After a couple of minutes Takaki finally started to wake up. He half opened his right eye that was soon followed by his left one. Slowly he brought his head up a bit, on the same eye level as Inoo.
‘’hey, sleeping beauty. You’re awake?’’ Inoo grinned as he kept on caressing Takaki’s hair.
Takaki yawned and rubbed his left eye. ‘’no. I’m still sleeping. I have to be kissed to wake up, just like the real sleeping beauty’’
Inoo bends forwards to give Takaki a small peck on the lips, but Takaki had something else in mind. When Inoo’s lips met his he grabbed the back of Inoo’s head and held the kiss as long as possible.
‘’kei, you wanna sleep a little longer with me?’’ he said when he backed away.
‘’no way! Then your breakfast is gonna get cold and I have to bake it again’’
‘’you made me breakfast?’’
‘’yeah. Omelet rice. ‘cause you like it so much’’ he said and held the plate in front of him.
‘’Arigatou, Kei!’’ he happily said and sat up. ‘’ne Kei, feed it to me’’
Inoo grinned at the comment but still took a little piece and put it in Takaki’s mouth.
‘’UMAI~! Kei, I totally love your cooking’’
‘’you love it more then me?’’
Takaki swallowed his food and grabbed Inoo by his shoulders to put him in a tight hug. He kissed his soft cheek and caressed his hair. ‘’you silly. How could I ever do that? There’s no way I’m gonna chose you above food. I rather eat you’’. He whispered his last words in Inoo’s ear and that brought the shivers all the way down to his spine. A huge blush appeared on Inoo’s face.
‘’Yu… Yuya..’’ he softly let out. He was about to say something, but before he could Takaki already broke the hug and faced him. ‘’why did you actually cooked breakfast? I thought you weren’t feeling well?’’
‘’I felt a bit better this morning’’
‘’oh I see. Guess I don’t have to take of you anymore then, ne? What a shame. I wanted to take you to an onsen. Maybe next time’’
Inoo’s eyes widened. ‘’n.. no, it’s.. not like that. I’m still sick and I could really use a break. Le.. let’s go, ne?’’ damn, I wanna go. Please, take me! Please, take me!
Takaki grinned loudly and pinched Inoo’s nose. ‘’don’t worry. I was just teasing you. I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go’’
‘’arigatou, Yuya. Hontou daisuki’’ he said and left a small kiss mark on his cheek, before exiting the room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
‘’it feels so good’’ Inoo said and made bubbles in the water with his mouth. ‘’I can’t believe how relaxed I feel’’
‘’be careful. If you become too relax, you’ll fall asleep and then you’re drowning and I have to come and save you’’ Takaki said with a happy face.
‘’it would be good if you came to save me’’
‘’don’t be silly, Kei’’ Takaki laugh before he stepped out and grabbed a towel to wrap it around his body. ‘’not gonna come out?’’ he asked the younger.
‘’not yet. I want to stay in a little longer’’
Takaki nodded and disappeared inside. This is so nice Inoo thought. I’m so happy to be able to spend my time with Yuya like this again. He smiled brightly as he started playing with the water. No one would believe that this was the same boy as two days ago. After a few minutes he got out and dried his body and put on some clothes. On his way towards their room he bumbed into Takaki.
‘’perfect timing. I was just about to get you. Come on, let’s eat dinner’’ he said and took Inoo’s hand. The two walked towards their room and sat down.
‘’uwa~ it looks so good. I’m starving’’ Inoo said and got his chopsticks. ‘’Ittadakimasu’’
Takaki had a hard time not to laugh every time Inoo put a new amount of food in his mouth and grinned widely while yelling ‘umai’ like a little kid. After some time Inoo noticed the elder was staring at him.
‘’do I have something on my face?’’ he asked him.
‘’no’’
‘’then why are you staring at me like that?’’
‘’you’re fun to watch’’
‘’is my face really al that enjoyable?’’
‘’you have no idea, Kei’’
Inoo got a light blush covering his cheeks and put his chopsticks down. ‘’Yuya, I’m really tired. Let’s go to sleep?’’ he asked him.
‘’anything you want’’ he said and stood up to grab some blankets. Takaki placed the blanket over them and took Inoo in his arms. Inoo buried his head in his chest and held tightly onto his waist.
‘’good night, Yuya’’
‘’good night, Kei’’
‘’I love you’’
‘’I love you to’’. Takaki kissed Inoo head softly and caressed his hair until he would fall asleep. He didn’t get the chance, though. Merely 10 minutes passed when Takaki heard his phone ringing. ‘’who the hell would call me at this kind of hour?’’
With a grumpy look he got up and reached for his phone. ‘’moshi moshi?’’
Inoo rubbed his eyes and sat up a little, while he was watching Takaki talking with someone on the other line.
‘’oh.. I see. But… I-I can’t… I.. No sir… I understand, but..’’
Inoo listened to Takaki stuttering towards the other person. Inoo could already guess this was a business call.
‘’alright… I understand.. yes sir… No sir.. ok, thank you.. bye’’. Takaki closed his phone and stared at the ground. ‘’Yuya?’’ the younger called him.
‘’hm?’’ he said, still refusing to look up.
‘’it’s work, isn’t it?’’
‘’something happened at the office and they need me to come over right away’’
‘’then.. I think you should go’’ Inoo said while he felt the pain stab him right in his heart. He didn’t said that ‘cause he wanted to.
‘’Kei..’’. Takaki now looked at him with sad eyes. ‘’don’t say something you don’t mean’’
‘’it’s your work. It’s really important. I don’t have the right to go against that’’
‘’Kei..’’ Takaki said, as he tried hard to fight against his tears. ‘’I.. I don’t want to go and leave you all alone by yourself again. I really don’t want to… but.. I’m not aloud. I’m so sorry, Kei’’
Inoo plastered a fake smile to him. ‘’don’t worry. I understand. Now hurry up, or they might yell at you for being late’’
Takaki nodded and wiped a couple of his tears away, before standing up to leave. Inoo watched Takaki disappear through the door. He kept staring at the door for a couple of seconds before he totally broke down in tears. He rolled up in a ball and slid himself under the blankets. Why? Why do things have to be so unfair? Hours passed as Inoo cried himself to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He should hate him. He’d lied to him after all. But Inoo could never hate anybody. But he had betrayed him, lied to him, upset him and made him cry all the time and Inoo felt it. He fell all of it. It hurt him, a lot. A lot of people would tell him to break up with him already, but that wasn’t as easy said as done. He still loved Takaki though. He always had and still did. He wanted things to work out for them. Everyone, including Takaki, always told him that he was to soft hearted and to nice towards others, that he always left himself out. Inoo tried to think about that, but he wasn’t able to see such a thing himself. All he knew was that he cared for the people he loved. Isn’t that a normal thing to do?
‘’here you go’’ Yabu said as he placed a cup of tea on the table. Inoo tanked him lightly. He came over at yabu’s a lot more again. Yabu always liked it to have him come over. Even though Takaki promised to be home more and take care of Inoo, he just went away for work again. Inoo hated that and it made him cry when he thought about it. He didn’t know what to think of Takaki anymore. Maybe the latter didn’t love him anymore? Maybe he had found someone else? Or maybe he thought that Inoo was irritating, or something? Worried filled the younger’s head every day.
Inoo cough. Yabu got up and grabbed some cough syrup. He filled a spoon and made Inoo drink it. Maybe you would have already guessed it. Inoo had become sick again.
Yabu found out that Inoo was love-sick. His worries had affected his body, so now he was trying his best to help Inoo get over Takaki.
‘’let’s go watch a movie or something, oke?’’ Yabu asked him.
‘’I don’t feel like watching a movie’’
‘’come one, Kei. You can’t reject everything I say’’
‘’I know you’re trying to help me, but I just really don’t want to do stuff like that right now’’
‘’but sitting here and doing nothing isn’t also gonna help! So you’re coming with me and we’re gonna have some good time together!’’ Yabu said and grabbed Inoo’s wrist. He didn’t release until they reached the cinema. Yabu bought two tickets and took Inoo’s wrist again to take him upstairs.
‘’Ko.. what are we going to watch?’’
‘’actually.. I have no freaking idea’’
Inoo let a little laugh escape and Yabu noticed. ‘’you’re already in a good mood again? Damn.. I’m better then I thought’’
Inoo’s smiling face grew wider and he softly hit yabu on the arm. ‘’oi! Don’t get to high of yourself’’
Yabu smiled back and took Inoo’s hand in his when they entered the movie room. The movie had some funny parts in it and yabu could hear Inoo laughing along with the rest. He felt relieved the younger was back alive again. After some time, Yabu turned to take a look at Inoo and saw him staring at nothing, having a blank expression. ‘’Kei?’’ he called the younger.
Inoo didn’t look or respond to him, but only his mouth would form a soft smile.
‘’you’re not thinking about him again, are you?’’
Inoo shook his head and looked down. ‘’no, it’s not like that. In fact, my feelings totally have calmed down’’. He looked up to face Yabu. ‘’thank you so much for taking me out, Kota’’
Now Yabu was the one who was blank. He took Inoo’s hand and pulled him into his lap. He wrapped his arms around his waist and stared at his eyes. ‘’I will do anything to make you happy’’ he whispered.
‘’I know’’ Inoo said with a smile.
Yabu’s hand slowly went upwards and caressed Inoo cheek. He strokes a couple of hairs out of his face and leaned in. When Inoo felt the softness of yabu’s lips against his, his eyes fluttered shut. Yabu pushed Inoo more into his lap to make the kiss deeper. Inoo wrapped his arms around Yabu’s neck. He wanted to make this kiss last forever. Inoo felt so much love in such a simple action. When he felt the elder’s tongue run over his lips, he parted them to let Yabu shove his tongue inside and explore the heat. Inoo’s long and slender fingers went through Yabu’s hair. He already started feeling lonely when Yabu backed away.
‘’Kei.. do you want to move in with me?’’

A/N: I'm soooo sorry it took so long to upload. A new school year started and I didn't expected it to be this much >.< I have to read books for Dutch and English class and I have to watch a documentary for History class and then write and summary about it. Who the hell came up with the idea that this should be all at the same moment? Some of you will understand what I'm talking about, right? T-T
