Chapter Four: Christmas Emotions
Part One: The Things On The Bedside Table
"..Huh..?" Chinen opened his eyes, blinked a few times to get a better vision, then the sight of Yamada's bedroom ceiling appeared infront of him. When he realized he was lying down, he got up in confusion. "What am I doing here..?"
He looked around quickly, then became aware that he was on Yamada's bed. "..How..?" Chinen couldn't finish his sentence, as he refused to believe that that annoying guy, who didn't even want him to sleep on the couch, actually let him sleep on his bed. But this thought was quickly gotten rid of as Chinen let the cozy warm sheets make him feel comfortable.
Uwaah~ He changed those blankets with a duvet.. Chinen lay back down, letting himself sink in the cushiony mattress, while he pulled the smooth duvet up to his neck.
He was about to go back to sleep again, when his mind suddenly crossed reality. Wait a minute..! So.. why am I here again?
His eyes were wide open as he tried to recall what had heppened. Somehow, he thought that changing his position would help him think, so he turned to face the right, and met the bedside table.
Chinen was used to just staring at an object when he was thinking of something, and most of the time it takes him ages before he notices what the object really is. But it would obviously be different, if the object is something that's really important to him.
"..Eh..?!" Chinen's jaw dropped, as his eyes were now faced with the pink and black accessory. "..My.. Bracelet!!" he hurriedly held his hand out, and reached for it, then pulled it closer.
When he was certain it was the real thing, he couldn't help but yell in happiness. "No way!! ..But who would have.." Whoever went back to his bathroom, just to get this back for him, Chinen would gladly thank them right here, right now. But he didn't have a clue who would've been kind enough to do that..
Just as he was about to explode with all the thinking, he saw a note on the bedside table, next to a bowl of still-hot soup. He got curious of what the note said, and so he picked it up, while thinking someone's just being too kind to him.
Chinen read out what was written on the little piece of paper, a bit disappointed as there was only one sentence,
Eat this when you wake up.
Even though the person who wrote it didn't say who he was, just by the handwriting, Chinen could tell.
He searched around the room for Yamada, and it didn't take him long before he was surprised yet once again..
Yamada was sleeping on the floor.
Chinen noticed that in these past few weeks, whenever he came across something that includes Yamada, he would always get confused, and he would never know what was really happening.
This situation was an example. He didn't know how he should feel.
He remembered that the last time he was with Yamada, they were agruing and it ended up with, them both angry with each other. But now.. it seemed like that never happened.
I really can't get used to your fast change of attitude towards me.. you know that? Although there was one thing Chinen was sure of, at least. He was happy.
Chinen placed the note back on the bedside table, slipped the bracelet on his right wrist, then stood up quietly. He took the bowl of hot soup in his hands, and tried not to make any noises as he headed for the door. Not wanting to wake Yamada up, he made his decision. I'll eat this outside ne..
As the door closed behind him, Chinen couldn't hear anything but his footsteps when he started to walk.
The clock that was fixed on the wall of the hallway, showed the time was eleven thirty in the evening.
During this time, and considering it was christmas eve, usually everyone would still be awake, but alot has just been happening that Chinen thought the reason they were sleeping was because they were tired.
He walked down the stairs, checking the bowl incase he was close to spilling a drop of soup, then instead of going to the kitchen, he went into the living room. Chinen didn't originally plan on the living room being his destination, but the wonderfully decorated, brightly-lit christmas tree had attracted his feet to head that direction.
Aww.. they decorated the christmas tree without me.. Chinen pouted slightly, but the fact didn't matter to him in the next second as he was happy just seeing it shining beautifully.
I bet JUMP did it without me because they knew I was tired and have been over-working myself, that they didn't want me to be troubled na~ He smiled and imagined himself giving JUMP a bear hug. Then later, a scene of Yuto telling Takaki off for wanting him to help, appeared in his head.
Chinen chuckled at the thought, while he sat down infront the tree that his friends had lovingly decorated, thinking of him.
Part Two: Under The Christmas Tree
Ring. Ring. Ring.
Yamada's mind woke up from his blank dream, and he twitched his eye open when his phone suddenly vibrated. He hated being disturbed in his sleep, and angrily reached for the noisy thing, then managed to yell, "What?!" through his just aweken voice.
The next second there came a loud reply, and it made Yamada feel a tingle go down his spine, "Watashi no kawaii~ Ryosuke!!~ Merry Christmas!!!"
Yamada had to pull the phone away from his ear, while he moaned, "..Mom.. I'M SLEEPING!!"
"Ehh?? Why?! You should be awake and partying for the whole night!! It's Christmas Ryosuke, Christmas!!!"
Yamada thought her mom has gone wild.. again. But even though he was angry that he had to wake up, he didn't mind this anymore, as the feeling of happiness gradually creeped its way inside his body, and overtook his angriness.
The second later Yamada couldn't help but admit, I miss mom..
"..Ne~ Ryosuke..!! Moshi Moshi!~ You still there?" He realized he hasn't responded to anything his mother has said over the time he was thinking.
"..Mama misses her Ryosuke.." She finally calmed down, and said these words with a tender caring tone. This made Yamada smile as he felt the warmth of his mother's love.. the one which he will always miss.
"I miss you too.. Merry Christmas, mama." Yamada said, softly.
"Uhn..! Merry Christmas!~ I love you." Came the cheerful voice.
Just before his mother hung up the phone, Yamada replied, "I love you too."
He lay down, thinking that the fact the thought of Christmas hadn't come across his mind, surprised him.
Not being able to go back to his slumber, Yamada got up, and automatically found that the boy who was suppose to be sleeping on his bed, wasn't there.
"Where the hell has that Chibinen gone to, now?" He never fails to make me annoyed.
He headed outside, planning to look for the missing person.
Once he was in the hallway, his eyes caught the time on the clock. Eleven fifty? She rang me, even though It's not Christmas yet! Yamada wished his mother had called fifteen minutes later than when she actually did, so that at least he could've had a little more sleep.
He pushed the thought away, thinking it was too late anyway, then walked down the stairs.
Uwaah~ You can see the light, even from here..! When he got to the bottom, Yamada caught sight of the ray of shine, generating from the Christmas tree in the living room. He was proud that him and the rest of JUMP did such a good job, and wanted to know what their tree looked like in the evening, so he headed towards the blinking light.
"Uwaah~" As he entered the living room, the image of the christmas tree that was fully decorated, appeared infront of him. He grinned at the thought that he was actually one of the people who made the beautiful thing.
Yamada was about to walk closer, when he suddenly spotted someone sitting by the tree.
He squinted his eyes, and since the back view was familiar to him, he soon came to realize who it was. ..Chibinen?
His feet started to approach the younger one, then when he was near enough, he asked. "What are you doing?"
When Chinen tilted his head upwards, the person looking down on him met his eyes.
The two shared an incomprehensible gaze, and once again, no one knew what was happening.
One look was all it took for endless thoughts to occupy their minds.
Why is he looking at me like that..? Yamada was lost in Chinen's innocent face, and he had no idea that the hard thumping in his chest had started again.
Yamada.. Apparently, Chinen was still in his own world, and only became aware of his action when his heart skipped a beat and acted as an alarm.
The moment they realized what they felt inside, the two quickly turned to face away from each other. Clutching onto the space of shirt over their chest.
Of course, both of them didn't know that they were doing the same thing.
..Also thinking the same thing. What is this? They questioned the fast beating that was present inside the whole of their body.
After a few seconds ticked by, Yamada tried to ignore this, but still hesitated when he planned to sit down. Although, in the next moment he found himself sitting next to Chinen, anyway.
Chinen attempted to calm down, and turned back to his bowl of soup. As he took the last spoonful into his mouth, Yamada noticed that the younger one actually ate the dish he made for him.
"Did you get to eat that while it was still hot?" He couldn't help but ask.
"..Yeah." Chinen was startled that the other one spoke. "..Yamada, did you do all this..?" He summed up his courage, and looked at the boy who was next to him, after he asked. "I mean, the soup and getting the bracelet.. and you let me sleep on your bed too.."
"I had to do it." Yamada retorted, making the answer partly right before he could go back to admitting the truth. "You have a fever, and don't you remember that you fainted in school today?" He then too faced the younger one.
Ahh.. So that's what happened.. "Yeah, I remember." now..
"And about the bracelet," Yamada disconnected their gaze, before finishing his sentence, "I told you I'd get it.."
Chinen was reminded of that scene in his bathroom, and he flushed slightly when the picture of him ontop of Yamada showed in his mind. Although he had another thing coming, when the older one surprised him with his next action.
Chinen blinked as he sensed Yamada's hand on his forehead.
Yamada noticed that the younger one's temperature had dropped at least a little, compared to when they were in school. "Do you still feel hot?"
Chinen didn't know why, but somehow he didn't feel weird by Yamada's touch. Instead, he actually felt.. happy. His hand is so.. soft..
The younger one could only shake his head in response, while he closed his eyes, not wanting Yamada to end that contact.
The older one didn't seem to feel strange either, and in some way he understood what Chinen was thinking when he thought of not removing his hand from the younger one's forehead.
Yamada did the same, when he saw Chinen smile.
The two was not acting like usual, and there were a lot of reasons why this may be.
Maybe it was the Chrismassy atmosphere, which surrounded them with warmth; maybe it was just a random action, that was only for this time; or maybe it was the ding of the clock when it striked twelve, making it Christmas.
The right reason isn't easy to find, but Yamada and Chinen couldn't seem to care less, and just let the moment carry on.
Side Part
"..That Yamada.." Ryutaro woke up, without a reason, and thought of going outside of Yuto's room for a bit, since he couldn't go back to sleep anyway. But he didn't think his heart would start breaking into pieces, as he saw the moment Yamada and his loved one was sharing.
"If only he hadn't walked in.." His feelings got worse, when he automatically recalled what happened in the nurse's room, as well..
Only a little bit closer, then your fever will transfer to me.. Although Ryutaro felt like he already had it, as he sensed his whole body burn hot with nervousness.
But just before things could go any further, Ryutaro heard the door's quiet movement, followed by a familiar voice. "Don't do that, here."
Ryutaro hid his sigh, then turned to face Yamada.
He gave his rival a mysterious smirk, and replied, "Why not?"
He was angry for the interruption, but didn't want to show this, the normal way. Instead he acted sly and suspicious.
"Are you jealous?" Ryutaro walked over to the older one, who displayed an annoyed look on his face, as Ryutaro grinned while eyeing him.
Yamada just stayed silent and continued his stare on the younger one. He was definitely not answering the given question.
"Fine," Ryutaro began, still having that smirk on his face, while he walked out of the door.
"I won't." He looked back at Yamada. "I'll do it another time. ..Some place else."
Ryutaro turned to face the other direction and headed towards his classroom. He still felt angry, but he at least had the feeling of accomplishment, as he left Yamada, just blankly staring at Chinen.
Ryutaro never took his eyes off the one he loves, during his time of remembering. But the feeling of emptiness in his heart gradually grew, as he was seeing Chinen with another person. And it wasn't just any someone.. but it was Yamada.
The broken-hearted him headed back to Yuto's room, dragging his feet as he felt heavier by each step..
Part Three: The Christmas Morning
"Ne~ Ari-chan!~ Can't we stay in bed longer?~" Takaki asked in his only-for-my-Ari-chan cute voice, as he followed his beloved Daiki, out of their room.
"But it's Christmas, and I want to wake up early." The younger one replied. Seeing his Yuyu's puppy-dog eyes, he just had to add, "We'll just sleep earlier tonight, ne!" And opened his arms, when Takaki embraced him in joy.
As the two walked into the hallway, they heard Keito's confused voice. "So.. explain to me again why when I woke up, you were beside me.. sleeping on my bed?"
"I told you.. I sleep-walked!" When Hikaru heard himself reply, he noticed that that was a really lame excuse. So he quickly tried to hide the fact that it was because he just, somehow, wanted to sleep next to Keito. "And your room is the closest to mine so.." Man! That didn't make a difference..! Hikaru looked away from Keito, then headed down the stairs when he realized his excuse wasn't improving.
The younger followed him, anyway. Then so did Daiki and Takaki.
"Stop being so noisy first thing in the morning, Hikaru." Before the younger one could think of something to say back to Takaki, his eyes caught a glimpse of Yabu and Kei, who were hand in hand, and grinning at each other lovingly.
"I'll tell you who's noisy..!" Hikaru began, then turned to the oldest when he was near enough. "Yabu! You and Kei were so loud last night..!!"
"Well.. That's because-" Yabu was startled and tried to explain, but stopped as Hikaru held his hand over his face, gesturing a 'stop'.
"Actually.. I don't want to know."
Everyone had an idea of what Yabu was about to say, and they were sure that idea was right, when the two holding hands blushed with a smile.
Yuto just came out of his room with Ryutaro, and was about to join the other members who were gathered 'round the bottom of the stairs. But he didn't continue towards that direction, when he saw Ryutaro stop in the entry of the living room. He walked over to see why he was just standing there, then when he was close, he asked, "What's wrong?"
No reply came from Ryutaro, but just his bare expression. Yuto followed his gaze.. then soon found out the reason.
"Ehh??"
"No way!"
The rest of JUMP had now entered the living room too, and was shocked at the sight infront of them.
"Aww!!~"
"Love is in the air~"
They kept making comments as they went over to the two boys, lying down beside each other, under the christmas tree.
"Ne, Yuyu, let's see what happens when you put Chii's arm around Yama-chan." Daiki told Takaki. All of them agreed, so Takaki obeyed.
The next second they were even more amused, as they saw Chinen hug Yamada with that arm, on his own accord.
Ryutaro winced and looked away, as he witnessed yet another scene, that he thought he would only see in his nightmares.
The others were now poking the cheeks of the two who were sleeping. Then in the next second, Yamada woke up to Chinen's face, and Chinen opened his eyes finding his head resting on the older one's shoulder and his arm wrapped around him.
The two both flushed with red, then sat up and faced away from each other.
W-What happened? Did we.. fall asleep.. together..?! They asked themselves.
Just when Chinen and Yamada thought they were going to burst with all the thinking, they suddenly heard the people around them, "Merry Christmas~"
"So, you two are finally together ne?~"
Ryutaro couldn't take this anymore, and quickly walked away. He felt like his body was burried underground, and that his heart was as hollow as it could get.
He felt so empty.
Yuto couldn't help but notice a tear roll down his loved one's face, as Ryutaro turned his back against everyone, and started to walk to a distance.
Ryutaro wasn't the one hurting the most.
Ryutaro.. I know you're sad.. I want to do something to make you feel better, I'd do anything just to see you smile again.. But I know I can't.. Because if I do.. it might just make everything worse..
I hate seeing you like this.. If only I can take you in my arms..
"What?! N-No! We're not.. 'together'..!" Chinen yelled, as a reply to Hikaru's made statement.
Before anyone could react to this, Yamada suddenly stood up. "What are you guys on about?" He was clearly angry, and shot the six around them a glare.
"Yama-chan!" Yabu called out to the guy who headed up the stairs.
"Ahahh~ Yama-chan's angry." Keito said.
"You better be in a good mood for tonight's Christmas party!!" Hikaru yelled.
The six looked back at the one who was left sitting down. "Chii, you too ne?~" Their smiles added to the weird feeling Chinen already had, and he shivered as chills drove across his back. He felt his face still hot, then gripped the loose carpet. What's going to happen now?
Part Four: The Party
"Belated Happy Birthday, Aiba-senpai!!~"
When the six were talking about 'tonight's Christmas party' it was actually a late Birthday party for Arashi's Aiba Masaki, who's birthday was on the twenty-fourth. And Arashi thought of hosting the party on the twenty-fifth, so that it could also be a Christmas party for the whole of JE.
"Aww!! Thank you guys!" The birthday boy, replied.
JUMP handed Aiba his gift first, before they entered the spacious room, filled with all the JEs, and joined the party.
After going to get a drink, Chinen sat down on one of the couches in a quite quiet space.
The party was really lively, and he could see that everyone was having fun. Aiba grinning as he cut his cake, Yamapi dancing his usual 'goofy' moves with Toma, Koya and Nakamaru laughing as they secretly made fun of Koki's outfit, Ueda throwing fake punches at Junno - Chinen giggled at this scene. Even in parties Ueda-senpai practices his boxing.. and with Taguchi-senpai too.. -, and the AKame pair enjoying their slow-dances.
Chinen wanted to join the fun too, like usual, but the things that happened last night and this morning just bothered him too much.
As he took another sip of his drink, he suddenly heard the familiar voice.
"Chinen!!~" Ohno yelled, and came rushing to hug his beloved kouhai. "Uwaah~ I'm soo glad you came!"
He started rubbing his cheeks against the younger one, when finally Nino came to Chinen's rescue. "Gomen na, Chinen-kun." The second youngest of Arashi pulled their Leader off of the boy who could barely breath. "I think Oh-chan's drunk.."
Chinen huffed first, then said, "Don't worry, Nino-senpai, it's okay."
Nino was unable to resist the younger one's cute smile, and patted his head, "Aww, Chinen-kun kawaii~"
Ohno saw the moment his Nino and his kouhai were sharing, and automatically pouted in jelousy, "Kazu-chan, I thought I was your kawaii one.." then he put his arms around the guy next to him.
Nino sensed his lover's envy and before it could get worse he said, "You are Oh-chan..! And you will always be.. my one and only.."
Ohno smirked, feeling assured, then looked at his Kazu-chan before joining their lips together.
Before anything could go any further like usual, Nino pulled away, but still felt a string of regret, "Oh-chan.. not where everyone can see us.." He looked into Ohno's eyes, thinking Later, when we're not in public.. okay? The older one knew what he meant, even by just that one gaze, and nodded with a sly-looking smile.
Nino grinned at him then turned to face their kiss's witness, "I'm gonna take Oh-chan back to our apartment, before he drinks any more. Enjoy the party~" He wished Chinen, and walked towards Aiba to say 'bye' and 'Happy Birthday'
The one on the couch was still blushing. It's the first time I've seen anyone kiss..
Chinen hurriedly gulped down the rest of his drink, shook his head, and tried to forget what just happened.
After he cooled down, he noticed that Ryutaro was sitting on the chair next to the couch. What's Ryu doing here?
Chinen started to approach the younger one, who looked like he was bothered with something too. "Ryu, are you okay?"
Ryutaro made a slight jump, as Chinen tapped his shoulder, "Ah, Chii-kun.. I'm fine..! Why?" He tried not show his lie, through a smile.
But later found out he failed, as the older one asked him again. "..Are you sure?" The look in Chinen's eyes made Ryutaro feel guilty for not telling the truth, and didn't want to continue, so he turned his face away.
Seeing the younger one's weird action, Chinen couldn't help but think that he was lying. I've never seen Ryu act like this before.. He was unsure of what he should say in this situation, so there was a few seconds of silence between the two.
Finally, something that was worth talking about appeared in Chinen's head. "Ne, Ryu.. About Yamada,"
Ryutaro's mind was suddenly wide awake, startled as that name was mentioned. He dreaded the thought of what the sentence's ending would be, and braced himself as Chinen began to speak again.
"Have you apologized to him? ..About thinking he hurt me?" Ryutaro felt a slight relief, since it wasn't the worse he expected.
"..Not yet." He answered. Oh god.. I don't think I can carry on with this.. Ryutaro was disappointing Chinen, and he knew it.
"Oh.. Why not..?" The older one didn't realize he was making the situation more awkward, as Ryutaro struggled to find an answer, which wouldn't be obvious to the truth.
As the muteness continued, Chinen wondered if it was something to do with Yamada that caused the troubled expression to stay on Ryutaro's face. "..Did Yamada do something to you?" he couldn't help but ask.
The younger one was shocked. How did he guess right? Am I really that transparent? Ryutaro hated himself even more, as he lied for the second time, "No, He didn't. Not at all." He tried to display his most believable face, and looked at Chinen with a faint smile.
But, again, he failed. I know you're lying, Ryu. The older one was about to tell him this, when he was stopped by Ryutaro, even before he could start.
"Ne, Chii-kun, I'm gonna head over to Shintaro and the others now, okay?" I really can't take this anymore..
Chinen saw the younger one walk away, not changing his expression. He knew that Ryutaro was troubled. I have a feeling it's got something to do with Yamada..
Chinen made up his mind, and stood up. Then tried to look for the guy. I'm getting to the bottom of this.
Part Five: Beneath The Starry Night's Sky
Where is that Yamada?!
Chinen has been looking for almost fifteen minutes for the said guy, and still no sign of him. He's even asked a few JEs if they knew Yamada's whereabouts, but they didn't. He has also searched around the whole inside of the Jimushou, he could take his feet to, and he wasn't getting good results.
The eager, but now exhausted Chinen finally thought of taking a break. He was good at sports, but running non-stop for those long minutes was just not his level.
He went to get a juice from the vending machine nearby, before he walked outside, to the back of the Jimushou. "..Maybe I should give up."
He spotted a bench, then walked towards it, and sat down. Chinen let out a heavy breath before resting his head back.
When he felt calm, he opened his eyes, and came to a very sparkly night sky. "Uwaah~ The stars are so beautiful and bright.." He trailed off, while he admired the rare sight.
After a few minutes passed by, Chinen suddenly heard a creek coming from the next bench. He turned to see the cause, and when he did, his eyes widened. "..Yamada?"
Yamada looked to his right, only to be surprised that there was someone with him now. I don't remember being accompanied by, before I went to sleep.
"You were.. here?!" The other one made his voice louder, in disbelief. "Of all the places.. You were here?!"
"What's up with you, Chibinen?" Yamada asked, but couldn't care less. He just wanted to go back to sleep, and now there's that annoying guy over the next bench..
"I was looking everywhere for you.. And you were here?!" Chinen still couldn't believe how stupid he had been. Why didn't I think of checking here from the start?!
"Hey, would you shut up..?! I'm trying to sleep." The other one was back to his annoying mode again, and Chinen, like usual, became angry.
"What?!" He retorted, then the reply repeated in his mind. "Wait.. Sleep? Here? ..Outside?!"
"Oh, for God's sake!" Yamada fumed. "Would you stop asking the obvious, over and over again?!"
Chinen shot up in rage, and eyed the older one, "Well sorr-e..! I only wanted to make something clear with you, that's why I looked for you.. but I should've known you'd switched back to your annoying mode!!"
"What are you on about annoying mode?" Yamada stood up aswell, and raised his voice, "You're the one disturbing me, when I only want to sleep!!"
Chinen huffed, "Huh! I knew it! This is probably what you did to make Ryu act all weird..!!"
"Ne~ ne~ Yuto-kuuun!~" Ryutaro saw his little brother tugging on Yuto's arm, "Dance with meee!~"
"I don't want to, Shin-chan..!" The older one told Shintaro, and tried to pull his arm free, but he very well knew that a Morimoto doesn't let go that easily.
I wonder where Chii-kun's gone too.. Ryutaro scanned the room, but he noticed that Chinen wasn't any of the poeple in there.
"..Hey! Ryutaro..! Where are you going?" Yuto called out to the one heading towards the door. "Sh-Shin-chan..! Let go of me!" He was now pushing the boy away, but he was still not letting go. I need to follow Ryutaro..!
"What do you mean? I did what to Ryutaro?" Yamada was now even more angry, as he was getting accused of doing something that he sure hasn't.. again.
"This!!" The younger one shouted. "You keep acting all annoying, and I bet when you and Ryu were having a conversation, you acted like this too, making him get all vexed, and irritated..!"
"What?! That never happened!!" ..It was the opposite way 'round..
Chinen couldn't believe this, "Now you're lying?!"
Yamada didn't respond, until after a few seconds of just eyeing the other one, "..Shut up, Chibinen. You don't know what you're saying."
"Would you stop calling me that?!" I really don't get you anymore..!! One minute you're too kind to me, that I don't even know what's happening, and the next you're all back your stupid annoying mode!
"Just shut up, would you?!" The other one raged.
"And stop denying the fact that you're just too annoying sometimes!!"
Yamada looked away, and clenched his fists. "..I told you, shut up..! I'm not in the mood for this.." He became unaware that he was making a pained face.
But the dense Chinen didn't notice this, and didn't shut up. "Stop avoiding the subject! Just admit it, you're annoying, and you-"
He was silenced as he felt Yamada's lips suddenly pressed against his.
The two both froze, as surprise and endless emotions rushed through their bodies.
Just as the last scene of that moment was playing, Ryutaro had finally found Chinen, and was once again.. completely heart-broken.
He went numb all over, and for that time.. nothing in his body was functioning properly.
"..T-That Yamad-" Just before he could rush over to the two, and punch the living soul out of that Yamada, he was stopped by an arm that surrounded his neck, and a hand which cupped over his mouth, then dragged him away.
When he looked up to see who it was, Ryutaro saw Yuto.

Chapter Four: Christmas Emotions
Part One: The Things On The Bedside Table
"..Huh..?" Chinen opened his eyes, blinked a few times to get a better vision, then the sight of Yamada's bedroom ceiling appeared infront of him. When he realized he was lying down, he got up in confusion. "What am I doing here..?"
He looked around quickly, then became aware that he was on Yamada's bed. "..How..?" Chinen couldn't finish his sentence, as he refused to believe that that annoying guy, who didn't even want him to sleep on the couch, actually let him sleep on his bed. But this thought was quickly gotten rid of as Chinen let the cozy warm sheets make him feel comfortable.
Uwaah~ He changed those blankets with a duvet.. Chinen lay back down, letting himself sink in the cushiony mattress, while he pulled the smooth duvet up to his neck.
He was about to go back to sleep again, when his mind suddenly crossed reality. Wait a minute..! So.. why am I here again?
His eyes were wide open as he tried to recall what had heppened. Somehow, he thought that changing his position would help him think, so he turned to face the right, and met the bedside table.
Chinen was used to just staring at an object when he was thinking of something, and most of the time it takes him ages before he notices what the object really is. But it would obviously be different, if the object is something that's really important to him.
"..Eh..?!" Chinen's jaw dropped, as his eyes were now faced with the pink and black accessory. "..My.. Bracelet!!" he hurriedly held his hand out, and reached for it, then pulled it closer.
When he was certain it was the real thing, he couldn't help but yell in happiness. "No way!! ..But who would have.." Whoever went back to his bathroom, just to get this back for him, Chinen would gladly thank them right here, right now. But he didn't have a clue who would've been kind enough to do that..
Just as he was about to explode with all the thinking, he saw a note on the bedside table, next to a bowl of still-hot soup. He got curious of what the note said, and so he picked it up, while thinking someone's just being too kind to him.
Chinen read out what was written on the little piece of paper, a bit disappointed as there was only one sentence,
Eat this when you wake up.
Even though the person who wrote it didn't say who he was, just by the handwriting, Chinen could tell.
He searched around the room for Yamada, and it didn't take him long before he was surprised yet once again..
Yamada was sleeping on the floor.
Chinen noticed that in these past few weeks, whenever he came across something that includes Yamada, he would always get confused, and he would never know what was really happening.
This situation was an example. He didn't know how he should feel.
He remembered that the last time he was with Yamada, they were agruing and it ended up with, them both angry with each other. But now.. it seemed like that never happened.
I really can't get used to your fast change of attitude towards me.. you know that? Although there was one thing Chinen was sure of, at least. He was happy.
Chinen placed the note back on the bedside table, slipped the bracelet on his right wrist, then stood up quietly. He took the bowl of hot soup in his hands, and tried not to make any noises as he headed for the door. Not wanting to wake Yamada up, he made his decision. I'll eat this outside ne..
As the door closed behind him, Chinen couldn't hear anything but his footsteps when he started to walk.
The clock that was fixed on the wall of the hallway, showed the time was eleven thirty in the evening.
During this time, and considering it was christmas eve, usually everyone would still be awake, but alot has just been happening that Chinen thought the reason they were sleeping was because they were tired.
He walked down the stairs, checking the bowl incase he was close to spilling a drop of soup, then instead of going to the kitchen, he went into the living room. Chinen didn't originally plan on the living room being his destination, but the wonderfully decorated, brightly-lit christmas tree had attracted his feet to head that direction.
Aww.. they decorated the christmas tree without me.. Chinen pouted slightly, but the fact didn't matter to him in the next second as he was happy just seeing it shining beautifully.
I bet JUMP did it without me because they knew I was tired and have been over-working myself, that they didn't want me to be troubled na~ He smiled and imagined himself giving JUMP a bear hug. Then later, a scene of Yuto telling Takaki off for wanting him to help, appeared in his head.
Chinen chuckled at the thought, while he sat down infront the tree that his friends had lovingly decorated, thinking of him.
Part Two: Under The Christmas Tree
Ring. Ring. Ring.
Yamada's mind woke up from his blank dream, and he twitched his eye open when his phone suddenly vibrated. He hated being disturbed in his sleep, and angrily reached for the noisy thing, then managed to yell, "What?!" through his just aweken voice.
The next second there came a loud reply, and it made Yamada feel a tingle go down his spine, "Watashi no kawaii~ Ryosuke!!~ Merry Christmas!!!"
Yamada had to pull the phone away from his ear, while he moaned, "..Mom.. I'M SLEEPING!!"
"Ehh?? Why?! You should be awake and partying for the whole night!! It's Christmas Ryosuke, Christmas!!!"
Yamada thought her mom has gone wild.. again. But even though he was angry that he had to wake up, he didn't mind this anymore, as the feeling of happiness gradually creeped its way inside his body, and overtook his angriness.
The second later Yamada couldn't help but admit, I miss mom..
"..Ne~ Ryosuke..!! Moshi Moshi!~ You still there?" He realized he hasn't responded to anything his mother has said over the time he was thinking.
"..Mama misses her Ryosuke.." She finally calmed down, and said these words with a tender caring tone. This made Yamada smile as he felt the warmth of his mother's love.. the one which he will always miss.
"I miss you too.. Merry Christmas, mama." Yamada said, softly.
"Uhn..! Merry Christmas!~ I love you." Came the cheerful voice.
Just before his mother hung up the phone, Yamada replied, "I love you too."
He lay down, thinking that the fact the thought of Christmas hadn't come across his mind, surprised him.
Not being able to go back to his slumber, Yamada got up, and automatically found that the boy who was suppose to be sleeping on his bed, wasn't there.
"Where the hell has that Chibinen gone to, now?" He never fails to make me annoyed.
He headed outside, planning to look for the missing person.
Once he was in the hallway, his eyes caught the time on the clock. Eleven fifty? She rang me, even though It's not Christmas yet! Yamada wished his mother had called fifteen minutes later than when she actually did, so that at least he could've had a little more sleep.
He pushed the thought away, thinking it was too late anyway, then walked down the stairs.
Uwaah~ You can see the light, even from here..! When he got to the bottom, Yamada caught sight of the ray of shine, generating from the Christmas tree in the living room. He was proud that him and the rest of JUMP did such a good job, and wanted to know what their tree looked like in the evening, so he headed towards the blinking light.
"Uwaah~" As he entered the living room, the image of the christmas tree that was fully decorated, appeared infront of him. He grinned at the thought that he was actually one of the people who made the beautiful thing.
Yamada was about to walk closer, when he suddenly spotted someone sitting by the tree.
He squinted his eyes, and since the back view was familiar to him, he soon came to realize who it was. ..Chibinen?
His feet started to approach the younger one, then when he was near enough, he asked. "What are you doing?"
When Chinen tilted his head upwards, the person looking down on him met his eyes.
The two shared an incomprehensible gaze, and once again, no one knew what was happening.
One look was all it took for endless thoughts to occupy their minds.
Why is he looking at me like that..? Yamada was lost in Chinen's innocent face, and he had no idea that the hard thumping in his chest had started again.
Yamada.. Apparently, Chinen was still in his own world, and only became aware of his action when his heart skipped a beat and acted as an alarm.
The moment they realized what they felt inside, the two quickly turned to face away from each other. Clutching onto the space of shirt over their chest.
Of course, both of them didn't know that they were doing the same thing.
..Also thinking the same thing. What is this? They questioned the fast beating that was present inside the whole of their body.
After a few seconds ticked by, Yamada tried to ignore this, but still hesitated when he planned to sit down. Although, in the next moment he found himself sitting next to Chinen, anyway.
Chinen attempted to calm down, and turned back to his bowl of soup. As he took the last spoonful into his mouth, Yamada noticed that the younger one actually ate the dish he made for him.
"Did you get to eat that while it was still hot?" He couldn't help but ask.
"..Yeah." Chinen was startled that the other one spoke. "..Yamada, did you do all this..?" He summed up his courage, and looked at the boy who was next to him, after he asked. "I mean, the soup and getting the bracelet.. and you let me sleep on your bed too.."
"I had to do it." Yamada retorted, making the answer partly right before he could go back to admitting the truth. "You have a fever, and don't you remember that you fainted in school today?" He then too faced the younger one.
Ahh.. So that's what happened.. "Yeah, I remember." now..
"And about the bracelet," Yamada disconnected their gaze, before finishing his sentence, "I told you I'd get it.."
Chinen was reminded of that scene in his bathroom, and he flushed slightly when the picture of him ontop of Yamada showed in his mind. Although he had another thing coming, when the older one surprised him with his next action.
Chinen blinked as he sensed Yamada's hand on his forehead.
Yamada noticed that the younger one's temperature had dropped at least a little, compared to when they were in school. "Do you still feel hot?"
Chinen didn't know why, but somehow he didn't feel weird by Yamada's touch. Instead, he actually felt.. happy. His hand is so.. soft..
The younger one could only shake his head in response, while he closed his eyes, not wanting Yamada to end that contact.
The older one didn't seem to feel strange either, and in some way he understood what Chinen was thinking when he thought of not removing his hand from the younger one's forehead.
Yamada did the same, when he saw Chinen smile.
The two was not acting like usual, and there were a lot of reasons why this may be.
Maybe it was the Chrismassy atmosphere, which surrounded them with warmth; maybe it was just a random action, that was only for this time; or maybe it was the ding of the clock when it striked twelve, making it Christmas.
The right reason isn't easy to find, but Yamada and Chinen couldn't seem to care less, and just let the moment carry on.
Side Part
"..That Yamada.." Ryutaro woke up, without a reason, and thought of going outside of Yuto's room for a bit, since he couldn't go back to sleep anyway. But he didn't think his heart would start breaking into pieces, as he saw the moment Yamada and his loved one was sharing.
"If only he hadn't walked in.." His feelings got worse, when he automatically recalled what happened in the nurse's room, as well..
Only a little bit closer, then your fever will transfer to me.. Although Ryutaro felt like he already had it, as he sensed his whole body burn hot with nervousness.
But just before things could go any further, Ryutaro heard the door's quiet movement, followed by a familiar voice. "Don't do that, here."
Ryutaro hid his sigh, then turned to face Yamada.
He gave his rival a mysterious smirk, and replied, "Why not?"
He was angry for the interruption, but didn't want to show this, the normal way. Instead he acted sly and suspicious.
"Are you jealous?" Ryutaro walked over to the older one, who displayed an annoyed look on his face, as Ryutaro grinned while eyeing him.
Yamada just stayed silent and continued his stare on the younger one. He was definitely not answering the given question.
"Fine," Ryutaro began, still having that smirk on his face, while he walked out of the door.
"I won't." He looked back at Yamada. "I'll do it another time. ..Some place else."
Ryutaro turned to face the other direction and headed towards his classroom. He still felt angry, but he at least had the feeling of accomplishment, as he left Yamada, just blankly staring at Chinen.
Ryutaro never took his eyes off the one he loves, during his time of remembering. But the feeling of emptiness in his heart gradually grew, as he was seeing Chinen with another person. And it wasn't just any someone.. but it was Yamada.
The broken-hearted him headed back to Yuto's room, dragging his feet as he felt heavier by each step..
Part Three: The Christmas Morning
"Ne~ Ari-chan!~ Can't we stay in bed longer?~" Takaki asked in his only-for-my-Ari-chan cute voice, as he followed his beloved Daiki, out of their room.
"But it's Christmas, and I want to wake up early." The younger one replied. Seeing his Yuyu's puppy-dog eyes, he just had to add, "We'll just sleep earlier tonight, ne!" And opened his arms, when Takaki embraced him in joy.
As the two walked into the hallway, they heard Keito's confused voice. "So.. explain to me again why when I woke up, you were beside me.. sleeping on my bed?"
"I told you.. I sleep-walked!" When Hikaru heard himself reply, he noticed that that was a really lame excuse. So he quickly tried to hide the fact that it was because he just, somehow, wanted to sleep next to Keito. "And your room is the closest to mine so.." Man! That didn't make a difference..! Hikaru looked away from Keito, then headed down the stairs when he realized his excuse wasn't improving.
The younger followed him, anyway. Then so did Daiki and Takaki.
"Stop being so noisy first thing in the morning, Hikaru." Before the younger one could think of something to say back to Takaki, his eyes caught a glimpse of Yabu and Kei, who were hand in hand, and grinning at each other lovingly.
"I'll tell you who's noisy..!" Hikaru began, then turned to the oldest when he was near enough. "Yabu! You and Kei were so loud last night..!!"
"Well.. That's because-" Yabu was startled and tried to explain, but stopped as Hikaru held his hand over his face, gesturing a 'stop'.
"Actually.. I don't want to know."
Everyone had an idea of what Yabu was about to say, and they were sure that idea was right, when the two holding hands blushed with a smile.
Yuto just came out of his room with Ryutaro, and was about to join the other members who were gathered 'round the bottom of the stairs. But he didn't continue towards that direction, when he saw Ryutaro stop in the entry of the living room. He walked over to see why he was just standing there, then when he was close, he asked, "What's wrong?"
No reply came from Ryutaro, but just his bare expression. Yuto followed his gaze.. then soon found out the reason.
"Ehh??"
"No way!"
The rest of JUMP had now entered the living room too, and was shocked at the sight infront of them.
"Aww!!~"
"Love is in the air~"
They kept making comments as they went over to the two boys, lying down beside each other, under the christmas tree.
"Ne, Yuyu, let's see what happens when you put Chii's arm around Yama-chan." Daiki told Takaki. All of them agreed, so Takaki obeyed.
The next second they were even more amused, as they saw Chinen hug Yamada with that arm, on his own accord.
Ryutaro winced and looked away, as he witnessed yet another scene, that he thought he would only see in his nightmares.
The others were now poking the cheeks of the two who were sleeping. Then in the next second, Yamada woke up to Chinen's face, and Chinen opened his eyes finding his head resting on the older one's shoulder and his arm wrapped around him.
The two both flushed with red, then sat up and faced away from each other.
W-What happened? Did we.. fall asleep.. together..?! They asked themselves.
Just when Chinen and Yamada thought they were going to burst with all the thinking, they suddenly heard the people around them, "Merry Christmas~"
"So, you two are finally together ne?~"
Ryutaro couldn't take this anymore, and quickly walked away. He felt like his body was burried underground, and that his heart was as hollow as it could get.
He felt so empty.
Yuto couldn't help but notice a tear roll down his loved one's face, as Ryutaro turned his back against everyone, and started to walk to a distance.
Ryutaro wasn't the one hurting the most.
Ryutaro.. I know you're sad.. I want to do something to make you feel better, I'd do anything just to see you smile again.. But I know I can't.. Because if I do.. it might just make everything worse..
I hate seeing you like this.. If only I can take you in my arms..
"What?! N-No! We're not.. 'together'..!" Chinen yelled, as a reply to Hikaru's made statement.
Before anyone could react to this, Yamada suddenly stood up. "What are you guys on about?" He was clearly angry, and shot the six around them a glare.
"Yama-chan!" Yabu called out to the guy who headed up the stairs.
"Ahahh~ Yama-chan's angry." Keito said.
"You better be in a good mood for tonight's Christmas party!!" Hikaru yelled.
The six looked back at the one who was left sitting down. "Chii, you too ne?~" Their smiles added to the weird feeling Chinen already had, and he shivered as chills drove across his back. He felt his face still hot, then gripped the loose carpet. What's going to happen now?
Part Four: The Party
"Belated Happy Birthday, Aiba-senpai!!~"
When the six were talking about 'tonight's Christmas party' it was actually a late Birthday party for Arashi's Aiba Masaki, who's birthday was on the twenty-fourth. And Arashi thought of hosting the party on the twenty-fifth, so that it could also be a Christmas party for the whole of JE.
"Aww!! Thank you guys!" The birthday boy, replied.
JUMP handed Aiba his gift first, before they entered the spacious room, filled with all the JEs, and joined the party.
After going to get a drink, Chinen sat down on one of the couches in a quite quiet space.
The party was really lively, and he could see that everyone was having fun. Aiba grinning as he cut his cake, Yamapi dancing his usual 'goofy' moves with Toma, Koya and Nakamaru laughing as they secretly made fun of Koki's outfit, Ueda throwing fake punches at Junno - Chinen giggled at this scene. Even in parties Ueda-senpai practices his boxing.. and with Taguchi-senpai too.. -, and the AKame pair enjoying their slow-dances.
Chinen wanted to join the fun too, like usual, but the things that happened last night and this morning just bothered him too much.
As he took another sip of his drink, he suddenly heard the familiar voice.
"Chinen!!~" Ohno yelled, and came rushing to hug his beloved kouhai. "Uwaah~ I'm soo glad you came!"
He started rubbing his cheeks against the younger one, when finally Nino came to Chinen's rescue. "Gomen na, Chinen-kun." The second youngest of Arashi pulled their Leader off of the boy who could barely breath. "I think Oh-chan's drunk.."
Chinen huffed first, then said, "Don't worry, Nino-senpai, it's okay."
Nino was unable to resist the younger one's cute smile, and patted his head, "Aww, Chinen-kun kawaii~"
Ohno saw the moment his Nino and his kouhai were sharing, and automatically pouted in jelousy, "Kazu-chan, I thought I was your kawaii one.." then he put his arms around the guy next to him.
Nino sensed his lover's envy and before it could get worse he said, "You are Oh-chan..! And you will always be.. my one and only.."
Ohno smirked, feeling assured, then looked at his Kazu-chan before joining their lips together.
Before anything could go any further like usual, Nino pulled away, but still felt a string of regret, "Oh-chan.. not where everyone can see us.." He looked into Ohno's eyes, thinking Later, when we're not in public.. okay? The older one knew what he meant, even by just that one gaze, and nodded with a sly-looking smile.
Nino grinned at him then turned to face their kiss's witness, "I'm gonna take Oh-chan back to our apartment, before he drinks any more. Enjoy the party~" He wished Chinen, and walked towards Aiba to say 'bye' and 'Happy Birthday'
The one on the couch was still blushing. It's the first time I've seen anyone kiss..
Chinen hurriedly gulped down the rest of his drink, shook his head, and tried to forget what just happened.
After he cooled down, he noticed that Ryutaro was sitting on the chair next to the couch. What's Ryu doing here?
Chinen started to approach the younger one, who looked like he was bothered with something too. "Ryu, are you okay?"
Ryutaro made a slight jump, as Chinen tapped his shoulder, "Ah, Chii-kun.. I'm fine..! Why?" He tried not show his lie, through a smile.
But later found out he failed, as the older one asked him again. "..Are you sure?" The look in Chinen's eyes made Ryutaro feel guilty for not telling the truth, and didn't want to continue, so he turned his face away.
Seeing the younger one's weird action, Chinen couldn't help but think that he was lying. I've never seen Ryu act like this before.. He was unsure of what he should say in this situation, so there was a few seconds of silence between the two.
Finally, something that was worth talking about appeared in Chinen's head. "Ne, Ryu.. About Yamada,"
Ryutaro's mind was suddenly wide awake, startled as that name was mentioned. He dreaded the thought of what the sentence's ending would be, and braced himself as Chinen began to speak again.
"Have you apologized to him? ..About thinking he hurt me?" Ryutaro felt a slight relief, since it wasn't the worse he expected.
"..Not yet." He answered. Oh god.. I don't think I can carry on with this.. Ryutaro was disappointing Chinen, and he knew it.
"Oh.. Why not..?" The older one didn't realize he was making the situation more awkward, as Ryutaro struggled to find an answer, which wouldn't be obvious to the truth.
As the muteness continued, Chinen wondered if it was something to do with Yamada that caused the troubled expression to stay on Ryutaro's face. "..Did Yamada do something to you?" he couldn't help but ask.
The younger one was shocked. How did he guess right? Am I really that transparent? Ryutaro hated himself even more, as he lied for the second time, "No, He didn't. Not at all." He tried to display his most believable face, and looked at Chinen with a faint smile.
But, again, he failed. I know you're lying, Ryu. The older one was about to tell him this, when he was stopped by Ryutaro, even before he could start.
"Ne, Chii-kun, I'm gonna head over to Shintaro and the others now, okay?" I really can't take this anymore..
Chinen saw the younger one walk away, not changing his expression. He knew that Ryutaro was troubled. I have a feeling it's got something to do with Yamada..
Chinen made up his mind, and stood up. Then tried to look for the guy. I'm getting to the bottom of this.
Part Five: Beneath The Starry Night's Sky
Where is that Yamada?!
Chinen has been looking for almost fifteen minutes for the said guy, and still no sign of him. He's even asked a few JEs if they knew Yamada's whereabouts, but they didn't. He has also searched around the whole inside of the Jimushou, he could take his feet to, and he wasn't getting good results.
The eager, but now exhausted Chinen finally thought of taking a break. He was good at sports, but running non-stop for those long minutes was just not his level.
He went to get a juice from the vending machine nearby, before he walked outside, to the back of the Jimushou. "..Maybe I should give up."
He spotted a bench, then walked towards it, and sat down. Chinen let out a heavy breath before resting his head back.
When he felt calm, he opened his eyes, and came to a very sparkly night sky. "Uwaah~ The stars are so beautiful and bright.." He trailed off, while he admired the rare sight.
After a few minutes passed by, Chinen suddenly heard a creek coming from the next bench. He turned to see the cause, and when he did, his eyes widened. "..Yamada?"
Yamada looked to his right, only to be surprised that there was someone with him now. I don't remember being accompanied by, before I went to sleep.
"You were.. here?!" The other one made his voice louder, in disbelief. "Of all the places.. You were here?!"
"What's up with you, Chibinen?" Yamada asked, but couldn't care less. He just wanted to go back to sleep, and now there's that annoying guy over the next bench..
"I was looking everywhere for you.. And you were here?!" Chinen still couldn't believe how stupid he had been. Why didn't I think of checking here from the start?!
"Hey, would you shut up..?! I'm trying to sleep." The other one was back to his annoying mode again, and Chinen, like usual, became angry.
"What?!" He retorted, then the reply repeated in his mind. "Wait.. Sleep? Here? ..Outside?!"
"Oh, for God's sake!" Yamada fumed. "Would you stop asking the obvious, over and over again?!"
Chinen shot up in rage, and eyed the older one, "Well sorr-e..! I only wanted to make something clear with you, that's why I looked for you.. but I should've known you'd switched back to your annoying mode!!"
"What are you on about annoying mode?" Yamada stood up aswell, and raised his voice, "You're the one disturbing me, when I only want to sleep!!"
Chinen huffed, "Huh! I knew it! This is probably what you did to make Ryu act all weird..!!"
"Ne~ ne~ Yuto-kuuun!~" Ryutaro saw his little brother tugging on Yuto's arm, "Dance with meee!~"
"I don't want to, Shin-chan..!" The older one told Shintaro, and tried to pull his arm free, but he very well knew that a Morimoto doesn't let go that easily.
I wonder where Chii-kun's gone too.. Ryutaro scanned the room, but he noticed that Chinen wasn't any of the poeple in there.
"..Hey! Ryutaro..! Where are you going?" Yuto called out to the one heading towards the door. "Sh-Shin-chan..! Let go of me!" He was now pushing the boy away, but he was still not letting go. I need to follow Ryutaro..!
"What do you mean? I did what to Ryutaro?" Yamada was now even more angry, as he was getting accused of doing something that he sure hasn't.. again.
"This!!" The younger one shouted. "You keep acting all annoying, and I bet when you and Ryu were having a conversation, you acted like this too, making him get all vexed, and irritated..!"
"What?! That never happened!!" ..It was the opposite way 'round..
Chinen couldn't believe this, "Now you're lying?!"
Yamada didn't respond, until after a few seconds of just eyeing the other one, "..Shut up, Chibinen. You don't know what you're saying."
"Would you stop calling me that?!" I really don't get you anymore..!! One minute you're too kind to me, that I don't even know what's happening, and the next you're all back your stupid annoying mode!
"Just shut up, would you?!" The other one raged.
"And stop denying the fact that you're just too annoying sometimes!!"
Yamada looked away, and clenched his fists. "..I told you, shut up..! I'm not in the mood for this.." He became unaware that he was making a pained face.
But the dense Chinen didn't notice this, and didn't shut up. "Stop avoiding the subject! Just admit it, you're annoying, and you-"
He was silenced as he felt Yamada's lips suddenly pressed against his.
The two both froze, as surprise and endless emotions rushed through their bodies.
Just as the last scene of that moment was playing, Ryutaro had finally found Chinen, and was once again.. completely heart-broken.
He went numb all over, and for that time.. nothing in his body was functioning properly.
"..T-That Yamad-" Just before he could rush over to the two, and punch the living soul out of that Yamada, he was stopped by an arm that surrounded his neck, and a hand which cupped over his mouth, then dragged him away.
When he looked up to see who it was, Ryutaro saw Yuto.
