Kazuya turned to look at the man sitting on the chair beside him and tried to smile, though he knew that it would probable look more like a grimace than anything else.
“How are you feeling?” he asked.
The man beside him scoffed softly, staring down at his hands. “It should have been me asking you that.”
“Well, you can see for yourself,” Kazuya shrugged, gesturing with his head at his broken legs and left arm.
“I’m sorry…”
Kazuya sighed. “Things happened; we can’t turn back time now can we?”
The other man nodded his head. “But…”
“Jin… I know what they wrote about you.” He smiled slightly, “Kouji-nii showed it to me, practically the moment I woke up. So again, are you okay?”
Jin smiled, “I don’t care much what they say, as long as you know that it’s not true. Though… on my way here, I could feel the heated glares people were throwing at me.” Jin chuckled in mild amusement though Kazuya could see that the older man was very conscious about it.
“Jin?”
As if realizing the worried tone in his voice, Jin quickly shook his head. “You don’t have to worry; I’m a full grown adult man. I know how to handle it.”
Kazuya nodded his head and there was an awkward silence between them.
“I…” Jin started… and sighed dejectedly. “There are a lot of things that I wanted to say to you but…”
He stared at the older man who was now covering his face with his hands and when Jin finally pulled his hands away from his face, Kazuya could feel his heart break.
“Are you stupid? Why the hell did you cross the road? Do you know how I felt when I saw you looking like that?” A choked sob, “Shit… it’s my fault and I’m blaming you. I should have stopped when you told me to. I’m sorry… I’m really sorry…”
Smiling sadly, Kazuya tried to reach out towards the other with his good hand but then realized that with his recent condition, it was a hard thing to do. He gazed at Jin’s hunched figure, yearning to hold the other and whisper comforting words. Kazuya bit his lip and whispered,
“Jin… I love you…”
He could see the other stiffen, and with tear-filled eyes, stared back at him in surprise.
“Can you repeat that?” Jin asked, almost in a whisper.
A tear rolled down his face. “I love you… so please don’t cry…”
Jin scoffed, smiling in the process. “It seems like everything is not happening as I planned,” the older man sniffled, wiping his tears with the back of his hands.
“What do you mean?”
Jin pouted slightly. “It should have been me comforting you and confessing to you… and then you would say that you love me back and then we would kiss and then I would promise you that I would take care of you forever and then…”
“Jin… what did you just say?”
Jin stopped talking and looked at him in confusion before realizing what he, himself had just said.
In silence, Jin stood up and moved closer, settling himself at the edge of the bed. Kazuya could barely move when the older man reached out to him, caressing his face with the back of his hand.
“You’re beautiful you know that?”
Kazuya scoffed, and grimaced at the slight pain on his face. “Idiot, just save those corny words for other days, you’re hurting my ego.”
“No… I mean it… you’d always been beautiful,” Jin whispered softly.
With his right hand, he reached out towards the other. “You are too…” and with that Kazuya couldn’t stop himself from chuckling softly. “I think we’re going crazy… we’ve been crying for the past few minutes and here we are exchanging corny words, grinning like mad people.”
“Well… we are crazily in love…”
That caused Kazuya to laugh loudly, though after a while he winced from the pain. “You are unbelievably corny.” He said between breaths and Jin smiled at that, almost proudly.
“Hey… Kazuya…”
Kazuya glanced up towards the other.
“Let me take care of you…”
Eh?
Jin took a deep breath and Kazuya knew that he was serious about it when he looked into the other’s eyes.
“I love you… I want to be with you… and no, don’t you ever say that I said this out of guilty.” The older man let out a shaky breath. “I really love you and I want to grow old and wrinkly with you…”
Kazuya could feel the tears gathering in his eyes. Happy tears that is, but instead of saying yes, he had said,
“What the hell are you saying?”
Jin frowned. “You don’t like it?”
He scoffed softly, “It sounds like you are proposing to me…”
“Well, I did.” Jin replied earnestly. “So what’s your answer?”
Kazuya immediately smacked the other on the side of the head. “Idiot…”
“You’re quite strong for a person who just had an accident,” Jin grumbled, rubbing his head but then he turned to look at him again, a hopeful look on his face. “So?”
Kazuya looked away and muttered, “And you may now kiss the groom…” his face heated up in embarrassment.
“Shouldn’t it be ‘the bride’?”
He rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Just kiss me okay?”
Looking around warily, Jin leaned down to him and gave him a chaste kiss on the lips, while whispering, “Thank you…”
Kazuya gave a gentle smile, murmuring, “And thank you to you too…”
Thank you to you too Seung Hyun…
………………………………………………………………………………..
Kazuya was nervous that day. He had been in the hospital for 2 months and doing nothing bored him to death, but that day was an exception. His band mates were coming for a special segment for their show and it was a live telecast. He could barely stay still in bed when Jin told him that the other night.
He looked at himself. His legs and arm were still in cast, but overall outlook appearance he knew that he looked great. He had to look great in front of his fans.
“Kamenashi-kun, you looked happy.”
He glanced to his side at their director of the show and smiled.
“I am,” he replied curtly, his lips still forming a huge smile.
“So are you ready?”
He nodded his head. “Yes.”
Receiving a sign from the hallway, Kazuya straightened himself on the bed getting ready for his first shoot after the accident. And when he saw his band mates entering the room, he couldn’t help himself but to beam brightly.
“So… as a get-well gift, we got you a present.” Maru declared loudly and he swore that he could see the smirk on the other’s face.
Maru placed a box on the table and opened it with a ‘Ta-da!’
He glared at the older man and turned to look at his band mates. Jin was giving him a ‘I-swear-I-didn’t-know-anything-about-this’ look while the others just grinned innocently.
“This is bullying!” he pouted, staring at the plate in front of him. “It’s bad bullying an unwell person like me,” Kazuya said defiantly while the people around him just chuckled heartily.
In front of him was a plate of pasta… with tomatoes… a lot of tomatoes…
Kazuya looked pleadingly at Koki but his friend just shrugged and said, “It’s good for your health Kame-chan.”
He then started to look around for Jin but the older man was nowhere in sight. He frowned slightly and knowing that he couldn’t run away from it, Kazuya cleared his throat and gulped.
“Do I really have to do this?”
T-TUN nodded their head in unison and Kazuya gave a defeated sigh, when suddenly, someone took the fork before he could, stabbed at the tomatoes in his plate and…
“Jin! What are you doing?” Maru asked loudly while the other man just looked at them innocently.
“Eh? I thought that we’re sharing this…”
“WE’RE NOT!” Koki and Maru shouted together looking annoyed.
“Ah… my bad…” Jin simply replied, and dug again at the pasta in front of him.
“JIN!!!”
Kazuya laughed heartily while his band mates started to squabble among themselves. Jin was giving him a covert glance, and flashed him a meaningful smile and as always his heart would thump madly in his chest by the sight of it.
He couldn’t be happier in his life other than now, well… we do lose something in our lives… and there are times where we are unable to win. But being happy is much more important than winning. Kazuya let out a soft sigh, as his thoughts wandered off to a certain someone…
How are you doing now Seung Hyun? I hope that you are happy too…
……………………………………………………………………………………….
Seung Hyun sighed softly. It has been a very unforgettable 5 months of his life. He had been in love, heartbroken and the worst scandal of his life, but he was glad that everything had turned out fine. Somehow, he did kind of regret that he had said yes to the movie contract. If he hadn’t gone to Japan, maybe, just maybe he and Kazuya would still be happily in love and that he wouldn’t be spending his vacation in Paris alone.
He sighed again, when someone bumped into him and he heard a crash.
“Ah…”
“I’m sorry…”
But it seemed like the old man in front of him couldn’t understand English for the man continued to ramble on angrily. He looked down at his feet, thinking how miserable his life had turned out to be... even a random old man by the street was giving him a hard time. And he was about to snap when the old man suddenly stopped scolding him, whilst in front of him stood a young man in nicely pressed coat.
The man talked to the old man gently and after a few minutes, the old man left him and the nice stranger in a huff.
“Uh… thank you…”
The person in front of him turned to him and he stared, mesmerized. The smaller built man smiled widely, waving his hand dismissively.
“It’s okay.”
The man turned to leave when he called out, “Wait…”
“Yes?”
“If its okay… can I join you?”
The man tilted his head slightly in confusion and Seung Hyun shook his head flustered. “No… I mean, can I buy you a cup of coffee? Well… for helping me of course back there.”
The man smiled slightly and after contemplating for a few minutes, he nodded his head.
And as they walked together towards a nearby café, he asked, “So what’s your name?”
The man gave him a wide smile. “Shizuku. Kanzaki Shizuku, and what about you?”
“Seung Hyun…”
“Nice to meet you Seung Hyun,” the man said politely.
“And I’m happy to meet you too,” he replied and somehow he really felt that life wouldn’t be that bad after all.
