Nino thought he was the first to come into the dressing room that morning. They had a filming in two hours but he decided to arrive earlier than usual despite the hangover he had last night after drinking with some friends. He hadn't sleep for even a minute, but the painkiller was enough to help. Taking a bath was quite refreshing as well.
The dressing room was quiet when he stepped in. ‘Of course, no one's here,’ Nino thought. But he was all wrong. Sho was already there, sitting quietly in a couch while reading a newspaper; his usual routines.
"Good mor-,"
Sho left his newspaper aside and signed for Nino to keep quiet and to make no noises. The newscaster guided him to see the sleeping figure on the comfortable couch near his. "He looked so tired so I told him to sleep," Sho informed, whispering while glancing at the older slightly shifting.
"Oh..." Nino nodded as he walked in further and placed his bag on the make-up counter. He then joined Sho and took the empty space beside him.
Sho’s attention was back to his newspaper as he has gotten some important information to be memorized; thinking that maybe he would need it later for News Zero. And he didn't expect "this" to come.
Nino leaned his head back. Watching the sleeping man intensely as he did so. "Hey, Sho kun," he called.
"What is it?" asked Sho, never leaving the article of movie festival he's reading now.
"Hmm..." Nino seemed to think about something before he spoke uncertainly. "I... maybe I am serious about Leader."
Sho didn't say anything and instead waited for the younger to continue.
"He has become the center of my universe, you know," he went on. "I don't know why I can't even care about anyone else the way I do for him. Have you ever felt that way about someone?"
Sho gave it a thought and he felt embarrassed as Aiba's smile appeared in his mind. "I don't know," he decided to lie.
"What should I do now? I can't stop thinking about the mornings I wake up with him in my arms. The blissful days I will have, with him in my embraces."
"I don't know that you are a romantic?"
"You guys, especially you and Matsujun, you may think I'm just playing around and well, sometimes I am. But, I want him to be only mine some day. I really mean it, Sho kun."
Sho saw that the younger man was a little annoyed at the previous accusation but it only made Sho feels the urge to get everything out from him. It wasn't that he didn't know Nino's true feelings towards their Leader.
"Do you think it'll work out?"
"Why not?" Sho could see Nino smiling for the first time since he came.
It was then Sho's noticed something vibrated. Nino stood up and groped inside his back pocket. Taking out his cell phone, he excused himself and went out the room to answer the call.
Sho then put his newspaper down, walking towards the sleeping figure on the couch. Arashi’s leader was no longer sleeping. He even had a sheepish smile on his face, looking like an idiot. His cheeks reddened and flushed.
Patting the older man’s arms gently; Sho said softly, "You heard it now. Loud and clear."
“Hmm,” was only Ohno’s answer, but his glowing face was telling Sho how glad and happy that his feelings were being reciprocated. He had waited, and waited. Ten years, and it’s all worth it.
