Surprise
Working in a company like Johnny's Associates teaches you a few things about life, like time management skills, how to put on a feather-covered costume in less than five minutes, and being able to sweet talk your way out of anything, besides Nishikido's wrath of course. All these and more have been very beneficial lessons for Keito, but there's one in particular that out shines the rest.
In a company like Johnny's, the unexpected is always the expected, which leaves little room for surprises.
At first, Keito would be surprised by everything, like the one time he walked in on Tegoshi, Masuda, Koyama and Kato all in the showers together, washing each others hair and giggling like school girls, or that one time KAT-TUN took over their dressing room wearing pirate outfits and ridiculous fake mustaches. But as the months progressed and he got used to Yuto's wacky behavior, Hikaru's obsessive cuddly-ness and Yabu and Inoo's awkward parenting skills, he found that nothing surprised him anymore. Not even the one time Daiki teamed up with Arashi and used Chinen as a makeup dummy and dressed him up like a girl, or that other time Ryutaro stabbed Yamada with a fork because he almost stepped on his hamster.
It's safe to say that being in a company like this, filled with crazy guys covered in sequins, leaves you in a state where nothing can surprise you.
Well, maybe he shouldn't say nothing, as his mouth drops open and his eyes widen, the soda he was holding falling to the ground with a splash.
"Uh, uh," Keito stutters, "What?"
"What do you mean 'what?'" Takaki laughs, coming up to Keito and using a finger to close his mouth, "I thought nothing surprised you anymore."
"Uh, no?" Keito tilts his head to side, his eyes on the rose in Takaki's hand, "Wait, I mean," smacking himself in the forehead, Keito mumbles, "Damnit."
Takaki grabs Keito's hand and places the rose in his palm, before closing his fingers around it, "I like you, why is that so surprising?"
"I thought you were into Yabu," Keito answers, bringing the rose to his face and smelling it, a smile curling up on his lips, "Or Akanishi, or Tegoshi. Yuto thought you had the hots for Matsumoto for awhile actually."
Takaki blinks, "Wait, Matsumoto? Eh, forget it," placing his hand on Keito's cheek, Takaki leans forward and gives him a gentle kiss, smiling against Keito's lips when the other deepens the kiss.
Okay, so maybe Johnny's doesn't completely desensitize you from being surprised, but who cares? Without life's little surprises, it wouldn't be very fun.
"Stop thinking and concentrate on kissing me, jeez." Takaki laughs and Keito rolls his eyes, wrapping his arms around Takaki's neck and shutting him up with another kiss.
Anxiety
Running his hand along Takaki's chest, Keito smiled as the older boy giggled, his eyes crinkling along the edges from the ticklish touch. Keito grinned and moved his hands lower, to Takaki's sides as the other began to squirm, his giggling turning into full out laughter as he breathlessly begged, "Ah, Keito stop it!"
"Alright." Keito chuckled, wrapping his arms around Takaki's shoulders as he laid his head down on his chest, and he sighed softly when one of Takaki's hands began to play with his hair.
"This is nice, isn't it Yuya?" Keito asked, his eyes closed but he could feel Takaki nodding in agreement, "Can we stay like this forever?"
"Sure," Takaki wrapped an arm around Keito's waist, holding him tight, "Or at the very least, til we become too hungry or have to pee."
"Good plan." Keito whispered, and the silence took over as the two stayed embraced in each others arms, the only sound their steady breathing. Maybe it's too much too soon, but Keito thinks he really would like to stay like this forever. Keito found himself pleasantly surprised at how much he liked Takaki. He'd always imagined dating someone serious and mature, but Takaki's childish innocence was endearing and it made him feel warm inside, all fuzzy and gooey and such.
"Keito," Takaki spoke up, twisting a lock of Keito's hair around his finger, "Do you think the others will be okay with us?"
Keito blinked, lifting his head from Takaki's chest as he starred down at the older boy, worry evident in his eyes as he asked again, "Well, do you?"
Keito shrugged, "I have no idea, I mean I assume they would be. They love us and accept us," bringing a hand to Takaki's cheek, he held it gently as he asked, "Why do you think they wouldn't, Yuya?"
"I don't know," Takaki mumbled, "I just, I mean we all know Hikaru likes you, what if this hurts him?"
Keito cursed, dropping his head back down to Takaki's chest as he groaned, "Fuck, I forgot about that."
"And if Hikaru gets hurt, Yabu will be hurt too because that's his best friend, and Yabu's our leader so that'll hurt our member-ai and, I don't know," Takaki cleared his throat, "I'm worried."
Keito rolled over and sat up, his back facing Takaki as he responded, "Hikaru asked me out a few months ago but I declined, told him he was just a friend. He may get hurt in this but, that's not our fault, is it?" Keito turned around, grabbing Takaki's hands, "I really, really like you Yuya and I don't want to give you up."
"But what if-" Keito leaned over and kissed Takaki, effectively interrupting him as he deepened the kiss, fingers threading through Takaki's hair. After several moments, Keito broke the kiss and said, "Let's not think about this, or about anything, okay?"
Takaki nodded and pulled Keito back down, holding him as close to his heart as possible.
Gratitude
Grabbing Keito's hand and giving it a squeeze, Takaki took a deep breath before letting go, the two entering the practice room. Everyone turned towards them when the door opened and Yabu, who was seated on the couch, asked, "We all got your text, what's up?"
"Well," Keito started, fidgeting with his coat sleeve, "You see, Takaki and I, we, um," Keito stopped, looking at Takaki for help.
"Keito and I are dating." Takaki said bluntly, ignoring everyone's shocked gasps as he continued, "We know it's sudden and surprising, but we hope that as our closet friends, you'll accept this."
"We really like each other." Keito added in a small voice, his eyes focused on the floor as he bit his lip.
Silence echoed painfully throughout the room as the members exchanged glances, communicating through their eyes and actions how they felt about this. Takaki observed this with ill feelings as he saw things like Inoo's frown and Yamada's furrowed eyebrows. Eventually, everyone stopped looking from one another and settled on a particular member; Hikaru.
Said boy looked confused, starring at Keito who's eyes were still casted to the ground. Shifting his gaze over to Takaki, Hikaru stood up and everyone began to collectively hold their breaths as the two stood face to face, looking each other in the eyes.
"Takaki," Hikaru cleared his throat, before holding his hand out to the other, "Congratulations."
Everyone's jaws dropped at this and Keito's head snapped back up, his eyes wide as he starred at the two.
"A good guy like you deserves a nice boy like Keito," Hikaru added, grabbing Takaki's hand for himself and shaking it, before dropping it and returning back to the couch, "C'mon guys, let's be happy for the unlikely couple."
A chorus of 'alright' and Chinen's 'okie-dokie' was all the two needed to hear, and Takaki turned towards Keito and smiled, who smiled back and ran into Takaki's arms, holding him tight as he let out the long breath he had been holding.
"Thank God," he whispered and Takaki nodded in agreement, peering over Keito's shoulder at Hikaru, who was blinking back his unshed tears. Feeling a pang of guilt wave through him, Takaki silently caught Hikaru's attention and mouthed to him, 'I'm sorry.'
Hikaru rolled his eyes, a tear spilling down his cheek as he mouthed back 'it's fine, Yuya, it's fine,' and he smiled, giving Takaki a thumbs up.
