Summary : Jun found out. What will he do? Will he still hunt for him, or just let him be? But what was that kiss for?
==========================
“Jun…”
Jun immediately turned away and took the lift back.
“Jun!” Nino screamed. Shit…
He pushed the button and waited for the lift. He climbed in it and ran back to his apartment. “Jun…”
Jun was standing there with his gunblade. His eyes looked fierce, and was prepared for battle.
“Jun, what are you doing?”
“Don’t stop me!” he roared. “I know that face! The one who hurt you a year ago! I will never forget that face!”
Jun was going to rush out but Nino pushed him back. “Stop! He is not Satoshi ! HE IS NOT!“
“Nino! I don't care! I won’t allow anyone to hurt you anymore, especially him!”
Nino stopped pushing him. Why was he protecting him so much? He never asked him to protect him. He couldn’t understand why Jun had to do this. He had never seen him so angry, not to him. His tear duct was reacting again. He had been such a cry baby ever since last year.
Jun took a deep breath and let it out. He then dropped his blade on the floor and hugged him. “I’m sorry.”
“Jun..I’m sorry… I should’ve told you earlier.” Nino broke the hug. “But I promise, it’s not what you think.”
Jun didn’t say anything. He took his blade and went to the sofa. He sat down with his blade on the coffee table. He hold onto his blade tightly.
Nino moved beside Jun and settled on the empty seat beside him. “Thank you…”
Jun just nodded his head, waiting for Nino to continue. He knew it would be quite a long story, even longer if it revolved around Ohno Satoshi.
“The man you saw just now…” Nino paused while Jun looked at him, tightening the grip on his gunblade. “Yes, he’s Ohno Satoshi. He is the monster prince…”
Dang! He should have known it. He looks exactly the same! And that same smell that lingered on Nino’s body. He would never forget, that strong foul smell. Though to a mortal, they might not smell, but when you’re trained to kill monster, it’s easy to tell. They had a rotting smell, and Jun could detect a little of it. But wasn’t as strong as he used to.
This led Jun to wonder, if his sense had started to fail. He hadn’t been hunting for a year, probably due to Nino. He had no news from his master, the one who taught him all the hunting skills, and had totally lost contact with the monster world, the world that he wanted to destroy but failed.
Nino continued choking in his words, “But…but he had lost..lost.. his memories…”
Jun’s eyes widened. “Lost his memories? How? And why?”
Nino’s eyes redden. “Sakurai told me that…”
“He is alive too?!”
“Yes, and it’s because of this…” Nino took out the necklace that Ohno gave earlier. “It’s his charm. And this protected him that time, turning him to a mortal and taking his monster memories away.”
Jun leaned forward and took a good look at the necklace. It wasn’t just a ‘S’ shaped necklace, it was unique. He had never seen something such powerful before.
“He doesn’t remember anything, not even his parents.” Nino let out a weak laugh, “and of course, not even me…”
Jun’s focus was on Nino, looking into his wet eyes. His hands reached his face and wiped his tears.
“When did you found out?” his voice softened. It always happened when Nino was crying.
“A few days ago, to be exact, that day after I came home buying eggs…”
Jun remembered it, and in fact, his heart was broken to see Nino suffered while he couldn’t do anything. He was totally useless when it came to feelings, and relationship.
“He had been my classmate for a while and I thought of telling you earlier. But I haven’t had a chance to speak until now. It’s hard to tell you…“
“It must be tough for you…” Jun touched Nino’s hair with his thumb. “You are really the strongest man I have ever see…”
“Jun…” Nino sniffed before hugging him. He cried on his shoulder “ I don’t want him to forget! I really don’t want Satoshi to forget our promises! I don’t want him to forget our past, though it hurts. I miss him, I really miss him! I want to talk to him, touch him again. Play with him, laugh with him and love him.”
Jun patted his head lightly.
“Yet, I want him to have a better life! He said before, he wanted to have a normal life! He wished to go to school and meet people, friends, love… But…but…“
“I know…” Jun tried to hold back his tears. “It’s hard to move on…”
“Jun… what should I do? I have decided to live a new life with Ohno, but I can’t forget Satoshi… He means a lot to me… I can’t just simply let it go…” Nino tightened his hug.
Nino’s dilemma was something that Jun had experience before, many times. From times when he had to decide what was good and bad, to protecting Nino and kill his master, he was always in dilemma.
Praying to his family in his heart, he made his decision.
“We’ll do it together, I promise. You will never walk this path alone…”
“Jun…”
Jun released from Nino’s embrace. He leaned forward and gave him a soft kiss on his forehead. He then placed his forehead against it.
“We’ll be fine…both of us will…”
He then raised Nino’s head a little higher, and pressed his lips against Nino’s. Immediately, Nino’s tears stopped and his eyes widened. Jun’s heart was pounding crazily. His mind was spinning as he decided to close his eyes.
He had never done this before. All he did in his childhood time was hunting and fighting, and he never fell in love with anyone. No one taught him, not even his master. It was when he met Nino, got to know him, and each day, his desire of wanting to protect him, or to be exact, wanting him, grew. He never felt such a feeling but he knew, it was love. He remembered his mom had mentioned before. Falling in love will make yourself weak and strong. Young Jun didn’t understand at first. He didn’t understand why ‘Love’ had to make people weak, and then strong again.
Now he really understands what she meant. Love really can make someone weak, and strong at the same time. He neither hate this nor love it. It was just unexplainable.
The kiss lasted for a while, where there was no lust involved. Only a gentle, light one. It was when Nino pushed Jun away,Jun just realized he did something wrong. He claimed Nino’s lips when he knew that he was in love with Satoshi, or Ohno. When did he become so uncontrollable? He used to control his feeling but then, with Nino, his feelings were getting out of his hands. The more he hid , the more he felt it was exposed to Nino. He just can’t hide it from Nino.
No. I shouldn’t be doing this…
“I’m sorry.” Jun stood up and took his gunblade.
“Jun..”
“Go to sleep. You have school tomorrow.” He went back to his room and slammed the door. He sat down with blade beside him and both hands on his head.
I’m sorry… He finally let his tears down.

Nino couldn't let his mind rest. It wasn’t letting him do so. He was thinking about Ohno, Satoshi and…
Jun.
Nino touched his lips again. He had been kissed by 2 people today. But it was Jun that surprised him a lot.
That kiss. He could tell that Jun needed him. Jun wants him. Jun had to have him.
Jun..is in love. And the person is me.
Nino palmed his head again. Today must be the weirdest day. First, he got confessed, and got kissed. Then he was being found out and next he knew, he was crying in his embrace. Lastly, he got a kiss again.
With all these, he just couldn’t sleep.
Nino…Nino…
Nino wasn’t paying attention, but the voice got louder. Now what? His mind was tired and troubled. He didn’t want any more events to make his headache worse.
Nino…
“Who’s there?” it seemed to echo in Nino’s mind.
It’s me, Ohno.
“God! Why are you here?” he whispered while looking around the room to search for his boyfriend. “Come out.”
Nino, promise me you won’t scream. I’m at home.
“I don’t get you…”
I’m not at your place, I’m at my own house. He sounded a little guilty.
“Oh my goodness! I must be hallucinating” Nino took a few breaths in and out.
No you are not… I’m using mind control…
“Mind..WHAT!” Nino knew his voice was loud, so he covered it up. If not, Jun might rushed in.
Actually, you don’t have to speak. You can just talk in your mind, and I can hear it. I can even touch you!
Nino then felt a hand brushing his cheek. It felt like his.
See…
“Where did-“ Nino remembered he could just use his mind. Since when did you have it? And how come?
Recently. I fainted remember? And when I woke up, I started reading minds of people.
So that's why he's able to read Sakurai that time.. Darn, is that his new power? Nino thought
Power?
Geez! He almost forgot that Ohno could hear him in his mind. Nothing. So why are you in my mind?
I missed you…
Nino felt a gush of heat rushing in his body. And that’s why you came here? And disturb me?
Am I ? he sounded sad. I’m sorry.
Nino giggled. No, of course. I couldn’t sleep either.
Why?
It was… He almost said Jun. He rolled to the side. Nothing. Received lot of surprises today.
Really? Are you lying on the bed?
Uh. Nino suddenly felt a pair of hands around his waist. Though there was no one, but he thought he felt him behind his back. “Hey…”
Maybe you can sleep better like this…
Nino smiled as he felt Ohno’s grip tightened. He closed his eyes before drifting to sleep.
Maybe…
Checking you out quietly so I wouldn't be exposed. Hiding my real intentions in a roundabout way
