Nine
Aiba looked at him disapprovingly as he walked in through the door.
Okay so he might have been staring a little at Toma as he bounced happily beside him joking and laughing with Ryo and Yamapi. Damn he must be thinking of sleeping with Ryo now.
Aiba cleared his throat, all the happy laugh lines of his face turned upside down in an ugly frown.
“You’re growing even sappier.” He presented his observation with plain disgust and Jun sighed.
“He’s hot. I like looking at his ass.” While utterly true it managed to cover his growing feelings for Toma in an untrue denial.
“Who’re you trying to fool?”
“Mostly you.” Yeah, he knew it very well himself.
Aiba shook his head as if to clear it off a buzz, “Okay let’s ignore you ever said that. Is it just about the sex?”
“Yes it is. And that’s all I want!” He added to assure (falsely?) his friend.
“Then go and have sex with him now.” Aiba demanded tugging his wrists.
“What?”
“Now. Shachou’s out, this is as good an opportunity as you can get. So go, get this out of your system.” Aiba actually started pulling at the buttons of his shirt and Jun slapped at his hands to prevent Aiba from undressing him but the man seemed to be in a crazed daze.
“You think about Toma all the time Jun. If not now you’ll fall in love with him sooner or later. Why don’t you understand we can’t afford that! Not now. No...no.”
Jun didn’t understand the reason behind Aiba’s frenzy, he was so uncharacteristically worried and paranoid. Aiba hauled him to Toma’s bedroom despite Jun’s efforts to prevent Aiba from doing anything completely excessive. But he stormed inside frantic in a way that rivalled Jun’s extreme anxiety attacks.
“You!” Aiba pointed at Toma menacingly, who was just pulling on his worn out sleeping shirts.
“Yes Aiba-kun?”
“Do you want to have sex with him?” He jerked Jun by the hand that was gripped into his upper arm.
Toma furrowed his eyes in confusion before comprehending the question and nodding slightly.
“Then have sex.” Aiba threw Jun at Toma before rushing out the door locking it behind him.
Toma raised his eyebrows in amusement at the frantic man rushing out the door.
“Yosh!” He said instead pulling his shirt over his head quickly.
“What the hell!” Jun exclaimed then spluttered for a while because that was proving to be very, very distracting to his coherent stream of thoughts and actions.
“You heard your friend. Let’s have sex!” Toma cried out happily clapping his hands and striding towards Jun. Somehow managing to look seducing and ridiculously jovial at the same time.
Jun backed away just a tiny little bit but it was enough for Toma to catch on his still miniscule reluctance.
“What?” He asked Jun annoyed, hands on cocked hips, “You came in here shirtless, your friend demanding us to have sex!”
“He’s crazy!”
“And you don’t want to?”
Jun hesitated for a moment, eyes lingering longingly on Toma’s toned abs, “No.” He concluded softly, as though he wanted Toma to not accept that answer.
“What the fuck?” Toma dropped down on the bed, deep in thought, “Why not? Why would you come here if you didn’t?”
“I was brought here against my will.” Jun defended.
“Really?”
Jun hummed for a while, if he didn’t really want to come here, if he didn’t hope for what Aiba had suggested to become reality even a tiny little bit then there was no way Aiba could have dragged him here.
He knew that just as well as Toma did.
“I guess I just wanted to see you.” He finally conceded, brushing a hand through his hair to hide his embarrassment.
“What the hell is that?” Toma asked a little amused. He looked just as ready to force Jun as Jun looked to jumping him. But they both held back, something inside telling them that maybe that might not be all they wanted.
Jun rubbed his face, trying to stomp down on the string of stupid thoughts that kept on flashing through his head, “You’re cute.” Well, he didn’t stomp hard enough.
Toma chuckled and pursed his lips to stop his smile from getting too big, “We’re not in high school.”
“I never was in high school.” Jun said, this time smiling along with the other man, “Why do you think I ended up in this profession?”
Toma’s smile dimmed just maybe a bit but he still managed to look playful, “Why do you think I ended up in mine?” He retorted.
“I think...” Jun walked slowly towards the bed and sat down on it right beside Toma, their shoulders brushing, heart beating faster. These feelings were new for the both of them, “...high school is kind of nice.” He concluded pressing his shoulder against Toma more firmly and the latter turned a pretty shade of pink.
They sat there awkwardly for a while, just blushing at touching shoulders, unsure what to do next. Jun took in a deep breath as though building his resolve.
He cupped Toma’s cheek, turned his face towards his and kissed him.
Toma instinctively melted into it, lips sliding comfortably against Jun’s but as the kiss progressed just as sweet and without intent Toma became increasingly alarmed and suddenly he pushed Jun away and jumped back himself creating a gaping distance.
Toma looked like he had been slapped though technically it was just the opposite. Toma looked away from Jun’s questioning gaze bordering on hurt and wondered just what in the world he had been doing.
“I can’t want only you.” He said scared, so scared because he so wants to. Wants to so much.
“Why not?” Jun asked inching closer trying to coax Toma back into his arms.
After about a minute Toma does, slowly wrapping his arms around Jun in an embrace and Jun pats his back consolingly but Toma only shakes his head against Jun’s shoulder. His hand slide down Jun’s waist to pull out the revolver secured in a holder slung around it.
He looks at the revolver for a while quietly, ignores Jun’s alarmed face.
“Toma what-
“I’m not the type of person someone can only want” He said as he unclicked the safety lock making Jun even more worried.
Toma walked to the door slowly as though measuring his steps and he stood a few yards away from the door pointing the revolver at it.
A moment’s hesitation.
The loud firing of a bullet and the door swung open, the lock broken.
“So I can’t want only one person either.” He said still looking at the door whose lock he’d just destroyed. The sound of boots clicking against tile could be heard getting louder and louder.
Toma clicked the safety lock closed and threw the revolver back to Jun.
He looked back at Jun and smiled, “Your friend is really insane but he has a point.”
Before Jun could reply there were five different people in the room, grabbing Toma, dragging him away and asking him if he’s alright.
A/N: For Cam and Yuki. I changed Ohno's brother's name to Ohno Yamada like it should have been originally in the last chapter!
