CHAPTER 9
Twelve days.
That was the time it took Masaki to reach the highest position at T.A.B.O.O.
Not even Sho had taken so little to surpass Satoshi when he joined the casting of the club. Of course, there had been some factors that helped Masaki to get so popular so quickly, like the fact that he was a novelty at the house, his professional way of dancing and, mostly, the rumors concerning the mysterious proximity between J-san and him, which none of them attempted to conceal.
However, Sho knew that, in reality, none of these really mattered.
Masaki was naturally sexy and there was not even a client who would be immune to the seduction of his hips, pelvis and ass moving in such an erotic and provocative way. Besides, he was an excellent company: enjoyable, cheerful and the owner of the most endearing smile in the planet.
It had been more than three months since the time traveler had debuted at T.A.B.O.O and, since then, every performing evening followed the same routine: he and Masaki taking turns in the first position of the ranking in a tireless and teasing battle of lust and sensuality.
Not that the other dancers didn’t have their share when it came to crowding the club. Their natural talents for seduction in addition to Satoshi’s contribution as a choreographer and the involvement of J-san himself in the production of the shows had improved a lot everyone’s performance. Nonetheless, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t reach the level of excellence that he and Masaki possessed.
Maybe because none of them would like to lose to the other one, competing among themselves with the best weapons they possessed. A declared rivalry was set between them, a deliberate provocation that made their dancing routines even more sexy and daring.
T.A.B.O.O Vs Disco Star
Sho couldn’t help a smug half-smile when he noticed Masaki watching him from a corner of the stage. Sensually, he placed his hands on a client’s knees and rolled his hips slowly to the floor, biting his lower lip, teasingly.
He made a few more erotic moves, his eyes occasionally staring at Masaki in defiance. He couldn’t deny that he had fun teasing the other, showing him that, as any client in the house, he wasn’t invulnerable to the seduction of his body.
Sho interacted with a couple of customers before finishing his show off. However, before going after Sato-san, he approached Masaki with a victorious expression:
“Considering the way you couldn’t take your eyes off of my body, might I presume that my performance has let you excited, Masaki? Or were you just trying to get some experience from the number one in the house?”
“Number one for one night only, Sho. Until yesterday, I was on the top for four nights in a row” Answered him with an equally provocative smile, ignoring the stares of the other strippers, who were watching the scene as the audience of a MMA competition, waiting to know who would be the winner of such an epic challenge. They both knew about the bets about which of them would be on top of the ranking in the end of the night. “I must admit, though, that your performance was very inspiring. It served as a good appetizer.”
Masaki then approached him in slow steps.
“I believe the clients must be ready for the main course now,” he added, adjusting a strap of the suspenders lying over the tight white shirt he was wearing.
Then, without any other words, he walked to his mark to start his routine.
After dancing on the stage, he went towards the tables.
First, he walked towards Anata-san, a former sumo champion and a frequent attendant of the house. After a series of circular motions with his hips, he turned his back on him, opening his legs and guiding his big strong hands to his waist. As usual in his performances, he waited for the client to take off his pants with one single movement. When he found himself free of the piece of clothing, he bent forward with his legs straight and put his hands on the floor, rewarding the former wrestler with a privileged sight of his firm thighs and his almost bare ass, covered only by the tiny white leather briefs.
When he got back on his feet, after another sexy roll of his hips, he went towards Ikuta Toma’s table. Facing him, he sat on his hips, with seductive eyes. Then, holding the actor’s shoulder with a hand, he threw his free arm backwards, touching the floor. Toma took his hands to his waist and then Masaki started a sensual dance. He moved slowly to the rhythm of the music in an almost explicit way, their members almost an inch from touching each other in such a teasing way that Sho wondered how the actor could manage to prevent an erection.
When he returned to his original position, holding Toma’s neck with both arms, the actor took his hands from the waist to the dancer’s toned ass. Masaki smiled and, finally, faced Sho a few tables ahead, returning the teasing smile he had given him during his performance.
Even though he wished to fight, Sho was the first to look away, taking a large gulp on his drink and swearing to himself due to how easy it was for Masaki to mess up with him.
****************************************************
“You are so gorgeous, Masaki” the client said, discretely caressing the stripper’s naked thighs. “I wanted so much to meet you out of here…”
“I’m so sorry, Takahashi-san, but the rules are crystal clear” Masaki answered with an apologetic smile, before taking a sip on his champagne.
“You know this is just for show, right? J-san can’t really boss you in your private life. Besides, he will never need to know.”
“Jun is not that easy to trick.”
“Jun?” the man lifted an eyebrow, mischievously. “So it is true what they say about the two of you?”
“We are old friends” Masaki clarified, even though he didn’t mind the rumors. In a way, the gossip about him and Jun being lovers were the reason of many laughs between them. “He is my boss as well, though. I would never do anything to displease him, like breaking one of the rules of his club behind his back.”
“Bullshit. You are a free man, Masaki. You can do whatever you wish with your personal life. J-san is only afraid that a scandal might damage his business, but we can be very discreet. I also have no wish for people to learn about my little secrets.”
“Takahashi-san...”
“I can be very generous, Masaki” insisted the executive, before taking a sip of his drink and pointing with his head to a few tables ahead.
“You can ask your friend there.”
“Sho?” Masaki fidgeted on his seat.
“He doesn’t seem to mind with the rules” Takahashi said, still looking at the more experienced stripper and his companion for the night. “He and Sato-san meet frequently out of T.A.B.O.O. Even I had the pleasure of enjoying his company in my bed…”
Masaki drank his champagne in a single gulp. He had already heard about Sho’s fame and it wasn’t as if he owed him any explanation, but hearing about his sexual life from someone who had already shared his bed was very uncomfortable.
“I’m so sorry, Takahashi-san” he said firmly. “If you ever want my company here in the club, I’m all yours. I’m afraid I can’t meet you outside, nonetheless.”
“That’s fine, for now” the client smiled. “I’m very persistent, Masaki. I always get anything I want and, in spite of this initial resistance, you guys always give up, sooner or later…”
For a moment, Masaki had the will to throw the whole content of the expensive drink on the client’s head, just to show him that, differently from whatever he could believe, he wasn’t for sale. In the end, though, he just smiled, changing the subject.
“So, I heard that your father-in-law has finally convinced you to get into politics, Takahashi-san.”
********************************************
Sho threw the gift wrapping with the expensive watch Sato had gave him as a souvenir from a recent trip abroad over the first furniture he found at the dressing room. If it had been a few months before, he would have probably loved the present. However, in the moment his client handed him the wrap, he felt almost guilty by accepting it and only did so because the executive insisted, as well as in meeting him again. It had been around four months since they had last seen each other outside T.A.B.O.O, exactly since Masaki had crossed the mirror.
For a few seconds, he faced the object, wondering why it was the responsible for connecting their lives. For what he had seen, the mirror was nothing special; it completely identical to all the others hanging on the other rooms. He touched its smooth surface, thinking about the absurdity of the situation. If he hadn’t seen Masaki’s image at the other side of the glass, neither witnessed the deep emotions in J-san when he was reunited with his friend, he wouldn’t be able to believe he had really come from it. Even with all the evidences of the time travel, it was still hard for him to believe that, on its other side, there was another reality, another period of time.
He wondered what Masaki could be doing at that time if he hadn’t crossed it. He couldn’t deny that, the longer time it passed, the more he wanted to know him, to learn what he used to do, what he liked to do, with what kind of people he used to hang out.
He analyzed the object one more time, trying to understand how the portal worked. Maybe it was only his imagination, but he suddenly felt a soft waving at a point of the surface that could make it crossable. He let a hand invade it, but brought it back almost immediately, scared and apprehensive. His heart raced with the possibility of a new opening of the portal. It would be a chance for Masaki to return for his time, but… was he ready to watch other the man leave?
“Are you prepared to accept being the second best again?”
Sho startled with Masaki’s sneaky entrance at his dressing room. Fearful, he looked at the mirror, but it was once again solid.
“As if this was going to happen” he replied, not sharing the information about the change in the mirror. He didn’t want to feed the man with false hopes. “If you haven’t noticed it, Sato-san has been very generous tonight” he added, starting to remove his make-up.
“I did notice it. You even got a gift from him.”
“He always bring me a souvenir from his trips.”
“And you always accept it.”
“Why wouldn’t I? That is how things work around here, Masaki. You must know that quite well. I didn’t see you complain when Takahashi caressed your legs tonight, more than once, I must say. Tell me… has he invited you to meet him out of here?”
“Why do you want to know? Are you jealous by any chance?”
“It has nothing to do with jealousy” he tried to remain casual. “You are a free man; you can do whatever you want. I just think you must be discreet. J-san won’t accept a break of the rule of his club, nor even by his best friend.”
“You don’t have to worry about it, Sho. I have no interest in meeting Takahashi-san or any other client out of here.”
“Nor even Toma? Considering your performance tonight…”
Masaki smiled, sitting at Sho’s lap just as he had done to Toma before and placed his arms around the other man’s neck.
“It was just a performance. The only one I want to go out with is you. We have a deal, remember? The loser of the night pays the dinner” he said, staring at him with an amused expression before covering his lips with his own.
“Then, prepare your wallet, Masaki, because I am starving.”
********************************************
Sho bit his lower lip in face of the erotic image of Masaki sucking on his finger in a teasing way. Unable to refrain his desire, he replaced his fingers by his lips, kissing him passionately.
Then, he made his tongue caress his partner’s naked body. He started with his chin, which he bit gently, then went for his neck, chest and nipples. He paid special attention to one of them, sucking it softly. When he reached his belly, he felt Masaki’s body becoming stiff with pleasure. He smiled, satisfied, anticipating what would happen when he reaches his main target.
When he finally got there, he enveloped it sensually, allowing his mouth to taste leisurely all the texture and the flavor of the time traveler at the same time his fingers prepared him in a provocative way.
“Sho-chan…”
He got the message before the other could finish his sentence and traveled his way back with tender kisses until he got to his mouth.
He contracted his body when he felt Masaki’s nails scratching his back and, when his slim legs embraced him, as if unwilling to let him go, he finally penetrated him.
Even though he was the one on charge, Masaki’s body moved along with his, explorative and enthusiastic in a rapture of pleasure that seemed to never end.
Masaki was the first to reach satisfaction, convulsing beneath Sho and whispering his name after the orgasm. His hoarse and sexy voice made Sho increase the rhythm of his thrusts, completely lost in the hot and sweaty body. He moaned loud, unable to refrain the spasms of pleasure caused by the almost involuntary moves of his hips and the indescribable feeling of his member getting in and out from Masaki in a passionate fury.
It didn’t take him long to release a last sigh before he let himself fall over the other man, gasping and shivering, still connected to him as if separating their bodies were impossible.
It was hard for him to roll aside in order to take off the condom and catch his breath.
They remained lying side by side for a few minutes until Masaki stood up and started picking up his clothes from the floor.
“It’s still early” Sho turned around to face him. “Do you really have to go?”
“I told Jun I wouldn’t be long.”
“What about tomorrow? It’s our day off. We could have dinner and then spend the night in a dance club.”
“Is it a date?” Masaki smiled, wearing his T-shirt.
“No. Just curiosity, I would like to see the famous dancer of Disco Star kicking asses on the dance floor.”
“You see me dancing almost every day…”
“It’s different, though. I see the stripper working hard to seduce the clients of T.A.B.O.O. I wanted to see you dancing just for fun, without any choreography.”
Masaki buttoned up his jeans and sat at the corner of the bed to put on his socks.
“Can we schedule it for the next week? Jun and I will have a movie session tomorrow…”
“Oh sure, Jun again…” Sho sulked, all of a sudden.
“What do you want me to do? To cancel with him? And what am I supposed to say? You don’t even allow me to tell him about us…”
“Because there is nothing to tell. What we have is not of J-san’s business.”
“And what do we have exactly, Sho?”
He sighed and sat behind Masaki, enveloping his waist and resting his chin in the crook of his neck.
“We have fun” he answered in his ear, in a seductive tone. “I thought this was enough for you.”
“I’m not complaining” said Masaki, with a bit of disappointment. “I don’t like to lie to him, though. Jun is my best friend and I honestly don’t think he would mind it."
“You know him better than I do, Masaki. He is overprotective when it comes to you. And there is also all that talk about rules…”
Masaki closed his eyes when Sho’s teeth bit his earlobe.
“You know he will find out sooner or later, right?”
“Maybe. Until he does, though, let’s just enjoy the moment, ok?” Sho asked, before spinning Masaki’s chin towards him in order to give him an allegedly goodbye kiss.
********************************************
Masaki startled when he felt the cellphone vibrating on his pants’ pocket. It had been months since he had traveled in time, but he still hadn’t got used to the technological comforts of the future, like the possibility of communicating with people through cellphone messages.
He sighed annoyed when he read Sho’s message and typed back a reply in the modern device he had received from Jun. He wished he would have accepted his invitation, but he couldn’t refuse a night in the company of his best friend. Even though they lived together, it was rare for them to spend time together since the entrepreneur was always too busy managing T.A.B.O.O. He missed the drinking sessions and the random conversations he used to have with his friend after an exhausting day at Disco Star.
“I hope you are starving.”
“What got into you?” Masaki smiled when he saw three packages of pizza that his friend placed over the coffee table of his luxurious living room. “What about all that worry about healthy food? Aren’t you the one who is always so obsessed about our looks?”
“You are right. You work with your body and the last thing I want is for my most requested employee to get fat. However, you are always so fit, Masaki. It doesn’t hurt to lose control once in a while. Here” Jun said, opening one of the boxes. “I ordered your favorite.”
“Thank you!”
“No need to thank me for that.”
“It’s not only for the pizza” the time traveler stated, taking the older man’s hand on his. “Thank you for all you are doing for me in this time. I would be lost without my best friend beside me.”
Differently from expected, Jun’s eyes sparkled with sadness for a few seconds.
“Am I still, Masaki? Your best friend?”
“Of course you are!”
“I’m not 23 anymore. Our age gap is too big nowadays. I’m…”
Masaki hugged his friend with an affectionate smile before caressing a lock of his gray hair.
“I don’t care if you are 23 or 60, Jun. You will always be my best friend. Why would you doubt it?”
“You used to tell me everything, but it seems that you don’t trust me anymore.”
“What are you talking about?”
“How long will it take for you to tell me about you and Sho? You were texting him right now, weren’t you?”
“Jun…”
“Did you really believe I wouldn’t know that you two were fucking behind my back? I know you, Masaki. Moreover, I know everything that happens in my club. The looks you two exchange, the teasing between you… it’s not a mere rivalry.”
“I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to hide it from you” said the stripper, not bothering in trying to find an excuse or anything of the sort. In a way, he was relieved that Jun had found out.
“Then, why didn’t you tell me?”
“You are my friend, Jun, not my father” Masaki cut him. “I don’t need to ask for your permission to date someone.
“Of course not!” Jun stood up, raising his voice. “Neither would I bother meddling into your personal life, but Sho…”
“Sho is not the kind of guy you think, Jun. Maybe if you knew him better…”
“I do know him, Masaki! I used to be just like him, do you remember? Jumping from bed to bed, avoiding all kinds of commitments?”
“Sho is not…”
“What? Are you going to tell me that I’m wrong?”
Masaki lowered his head, unable to deny it. Sho had never showed any will to getting into a relationship with him.
“You are not that kind of person, Masaki. You want romance, you have always dreamed with a full commitment. Wasn’t it why you had broken up with Hideo? Because you didn’t want to hide your relationship in the shadows?”
“This is different” he insisted, even though he wasn’t quite sure of his words.
“Masaki…”
“Listen, Jun… I understand that you are concerned about me, but I am fine. I have no expectations about what I have with Sho. I’m just… not willing to give up on it…”
“You know you are fooling yourself. You are not the type who gets satisfied with a relationship based in sex. You are in love with him, aren’t you?”
“I…” he lowered his eyes, embarrassed by not being able to deny it. He had fell for Sho, maybe, since the first time he saw him through the mirror.
“You need to put an end to this empty relationship, Masaki.” Jun placed a hand over his friend’s shoulder. “I wouldn’t like to interfere…”
“And you shouldn't do so!” Masaki yelled, wrathful. “My relationship with Sho has nothing to do with you and your damn club!”
“Of course it has something to do with me! Because, when he comes to hurt you, Masaki, and believe me, this is going to happen sooner than you think, it will be on my shoulder that you will cry for your broken heart! I won’t bear having to gather your pieces once again!”
Masaki felt his eyes burning for the repressed tears.
“You don’t have to worry about it! I am sorry for having been a burden to you for so long! I never realized that I bothered you so much!” he shouted, before leaving the apartment in a rush.
He was so hurt that he didn’t even turn around to Jun’s voice calling his name over and over.
**********************************************
“Masaki won’t come?”
“No” said Sho, placing his phone over the table after reading the time traveler’s reply to his message. “He and J-san had ordered some pizzas for a movie session.”
“If I didn’t know you better, I would say that the disappointment on your face looks like jealousy,” Satoshi smiled before taking a sip of his drink.
“What are you talking about?” Sho reacted, irritated. “It has nothing to do with jealousy! I just don’t see why he should exchange a night of fun with us for a tedious night beside a man thrice his age!”
“You are exaggerating, Sho! And being prejudiced! Friendship has nothing to do with age. And for what Satoshi has told me, they are best friends.”
“This was in the 70’s, Ninomiya-san! Things have changed since Masaki crossed the mirror.”
“True friendships are unbreakable, my friend. Have in mind that, for Masaki, it has been four months since he was with J-san in 78. His feelings hasn’t changed. And, for what you said, J-san had been looking for him all these 40 years. You can’t deny that what they have is quite special."
“I don’t deny it, but still… I think it’s exaggerated. Masaki could have come with us and postponed this movie session. They live together, after all.”
“And does it bother you? Your boyfriend living under the same roof with another man?”
“Masaki is not my boyfriend!”
“If you say so…”
“You know we don’t have this kind of relationship, Satoshi.”
“Then, what kind of relationship do you have?”
Sho stirred the straw of his drink and moved his eyes to the dance floor for a few seconds. It was the same question Masaki did and, just like at the first time, he was not willing to explain what he couldn’t define. Even then, he took a deep breath before facing the couple in front of him.
“Do I have to name it? Listen, Satoshi… Masaki and I get along well. I won’t deny that he is a pleasant company; beautiful, sexy and drives me crazy in bed. I like to be with him. You know my nature, though… I’m not the commitment type. I like to be free, to have sex with whomever I want, whenever I want, without having to explain myself to anyone. I would never be able to get attached to a sole person.”
“The person you described is you before Masaki. To me, it’s clear that something has changed in you, Sho. You are falling in love.”
“I’m not in love with Masaki!” Sho said, clearly annoyed by the route the talk was taking.
“Really? Then, tell me, my friend, with how many people have you had sex since you started getting involved with him?”
No one.
He couldn’t deny he had been attracted to him since the first time he had seen him on the other side of the mirror. There wasn’t a day he wouldn’t think of him or long to be with him, that it didn’t bother him to see Masaki rubbing his half-naked body against other men in front of him, but…
It was just because, in a way, he felt himself responsible for making him cross the mirror.
It was empathy, tenderness and desire…
It had nothing to do with love.
It didn’t mean he was in love. Right?
“I only haven’t found the opportunity to do so, Satoshi. It had nothing to do with my feelings.”
“If you believe so…”
Fortunately, his friends changed the course of the talk, but he couldn’t prevent his mind of being crowded by images of Masaki: his smile, his sexy expression when seducing T.A.B.O.O’s clients, his pure and erotic expression whenever they made love.
Yes… he was in love.
He couldn’t be, though.
He didn’t want to.
He had to find a way out of that situation.
He took his phone and typed a quick message: Can you meet me now, at my apartment? I need to see you.
*************************************************
Masaki sighed before ringing the bell to Sho’s apartment. He was still devastated by his argument with Jun. Of all people, his friend was the last person he wanted to hurt. He knew he had been wrong in hiding his relationship with Sho from him, but Jun had no right to forbid him to date anyone he wanted to, even if it was just a sex-related connection. Honestly speaking, of course he wasn’t satisfied with the way things were. He wanted Sho to assume him; he wanted a real and cliché relationship. Even if it was not as he dreamed of, Sho was kind to him and they didn’t only get along well in bed. He was sure it wasn’t only sex.
Getting rid of his insecure thoughts, he heard the noise of the door being open even before he raised his hand.
“Masaki…”
“Sho, I…”
The words died on his mouth when he saw a man stepping beside him, holding his coat in one arm and with his first buttons of his shirt open.
“Hello, Masaki!” said the man, clearly surprised.
“I… I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to bother…”
“Don’t worry. I was already on my way out” he smiled before turning his attention back to Sho. “I have appreciated every minute of tonight. I will call you later to schedule a dinner.”
“I will be waiting for it, Sato-san” said Sho with a seductive smile, the same one he used to give him when he was seducing him at T.A.B.O.O.
Masaki’s tearing eyes barely saw when the man bowed at him in goodbye.
“I wasn’t expecting you. I thought you were having fun with J-san.”
“I was… I should be… I’m sorry, I’m leaving…” Masaki turned around, but he didn't even manage to give even a step, his arm held by Sho’s strong hand.
“Since you are here now, why don’t you come in?”
