~・~・~
Nino stands still in front of his room's door. He hesitates when he's about to tap the card to the cencor, torn between wanting to lay on the bed and not wanting to meet Ohno.
Unfortunately for him, neither of his choices are available since a hand suddenly grips his wrist. He turns around and remains still, not knowing how he should react.
"Found...you...", Ohno says, panting, without loosening his grips.
Seriously, Nino doesn't know how to react when he sees sweat dripping down Ohno's face, when he sees Ohno tries to catch his breath, when he realize he must be searched for him when he's drinking in Sho's room.
"I―", Ohno stops Nino by pulls him after snatching the room's card from his hand and open the door. He releases his grip on Nino's wrist just before he sits on the bed. He pat the space beside him, inviting Nino to sit beside him.
Nino obeys him. He sits beside Ohno, but not that brave to see Ohno on his eyes, not that brave enough that his hand trembles, not that brave enough that he feels like crying yet tries to prevent himself to do so. "I―" he tries to speak, but stops the moment he feels warm drops of water on his cheeks. He's crying. He tries to stops yet he sniffs and more tears come out of his eyes.
And suddenly he feels Ohno slides his arms to his back, hugging him and pats his head at the same time. "Nino, it's okay... Don't cry" Ohno hugs him tighter. Nino, giving up on regaining his composure, leans himself to Ohno. His hands circle Ohno's body, hugging him back. He digs his face on the crooks of Ohno's neck and starts to cry silently, or at least that's what he wants to because in the end he cries loudly.
"Sorry...", he begins to say between his sniffs as he raises his head a little, "Sorry... I'm sorry Oh-chan".
"Why are you apologizing?" Ohno pecks his temple, like what he usually do when he's showing his care for someone.
"Be―because I write strange things about us. Because I make you mad. Because I made you disgusted. Because―" Nino's words are stopped when Ohno tugs him closer, not letting him saying anything anymore.
"I'm not mad at you, okay? Just... surprised, that's all" Ohno hugs him tighter and brushes his hand over his hair. "Disgusted? I will never get disgusted at you, Nino. Even if you got yourself wet and dirty when someone throw wet and smelly trash at you", Ohno says as he giggles imaging the scene in his head, which makes Nino bites his neck.
"How dare you imaging things like that about me!" Nino pouted playfully. "If things like that happens I will surely go straight to your place and hugs you so you will be as wet and smelly as me", he says.
He giggles when he realizes Ohno's pouting and finally laughing hard after Ohno mumbles something like 'I will surely pass it to Sho-kun, Aiba-chan, and Matsujun too' while pouting.
He's laughing so hard that he doesn't notice Ohno has stopped pouting and now staring at him with a relieved face, "You're not crying anymore".
Nino stops laughing instantly. He loose his hugs around Ohno and pulls himself away from Ohno. Far enough for Nino to looks at Ohno while putting his temple on Ohno's. "You're really not mad at me?", Nino makes sure once again.
"Why would I?" Ohno smile softly. Really, how Nino loves that smile of him, how he loves his hands that's always tug them closer in any opportunity, how he loved the warmth of his body when he hugs him, how he loves Ohno very much that it hurts.
Ohno place a hand behind his head and pat him, "Well, for now, why don't you tell me the reasons or whatever it is before I―"
"I love you"
And silence fall over them. Nino, feeling uncomfortable with the silence, opens his mouth again, "It has been long actually, about 3 or 4 years ago. You can say I made use of your personality that always let me invade your personal space. And do you know how happy I was when 5 months ago I found a result of online polling about something like 'the best idols pairing' and found Ohmiya tops it? I wasn't able to control my happy face that Aiba teased me for looking like I just get a big thing, like I just won a lottery. In contrary, I was actually happy because such a simple thing like topping the polling with you"
Nino pauses for a moment, giving Ohno a chance if he wants to say something. But nothing comes so he closes his eyes and continue, "When I got home, I scrolled the page down until I found the comment boxes. There, I found a comment mentions the word 'fanfiction'. It never really interests me before but maybe because I was a little too happy that time, I searched for ones that pairs you and me and tried to read some of them. And... you know, I'm kind of addicted to them since in those stories, all my wishes came trueーwell, some of them had sad endings like we break up or one of us dies though. The more I read them, the more I imagine about you and me. And so, about 2 months ago, I started writing one. Most of it are about us but there are also some about Sho-chan and Aiba though. Oh, and don't worry, I only write G or at most NC 13 ―or is PG worse? I don't know― rated stories, not R or NC 17", he blushes at the last words.
Nino opens his eyes and smiles at Ohno who hasn't said anything, "That's the story behind this. Any questions?".
Ohno looks like he wants to say something but hesitates, and Nino's sight doesn't miss this. So he carreses Ohno's cheek as if saying 'It's okay. Say it'.
Ohno closes his eyes and sighs, before he places his hand on Nino's cheeks and pulls Nino towards him. Making their lips meet in a soft, gentle kiss before parting them after a few seconds.
Nino looks at him with disbelieving eyes, "Wha―"
"Nee, Nino...", Ohno cuts him, suddenly grinning, "Do you mind telling me your username and the website where you post your fanfictions? I kind of curious now".
Nino stares at him and doesn't move an inch, cannot believe what he just heard. Well, not until Ohno calls his name to wakes him up from his little world where he place pieces of Ohno's words and actions together, just to make sure he didn't misheard it.
He looks at Ohno's phone that lies beside him and takes it. He unlocks it and open the memo application to write his username and the website where he post his fanfictions. Then giving it to Ohno after saving it. "In case you forgot them", he says after seeing Ohno's why-do-you-write-them-on-my-phone face. Ohno's mouth shaping an 'o' when he hands him his phone.
"Thanks" Ohno said with a bright smile, it looks like Aiba's one-thousand-watt smile, Nino thinks, but I love this one much more than that. Without any intention, his lips forms a soft smile and his eyes look at Ohno's with so much gentleness and love. Seriously, he never knew he can make such an expression before. And now, here he is, looking at Ohno with that expression.
Ohno, surprised by the sudden gentle and loving expression on Nino's face, stares for a moment before he starts giggling and pushes Nino to lay on the bed beside him, which startles Nino. "You love me that much?", Ohno says as he breathes into Nino's ear.
Nino gasps at the warmth of Ohno's breath and blushes furiously. He doesn't say anything because he's too busy to control his blush while hiding his face behind his own palms. Ohno grips one of his wrists, but he struggles. "It's okay to blush, you know", Ohno pouts, he can know that much without having to see his face directly. He starts to lessen the strength he puts on his wrists, and Ohno takes that moment to grip both of his wrists and pull them away, making him able to see blushing Nino without any obstacles. "See? You're so cute when you blush", Ohno says with a straightforward face, making him blushes even harder and Ohno giggles at that.
"You're cheating. That's not fair" Nino pouted as he begins to regret his choice to lessen his wrists' strength. "Of course I love you this much, you idiot", he answers the question teasing anyway.
Ohno pecks his lips, which surprised him. He then wraps his arms around Nino's waist and pulls him closer, making them cuddle like puppies. "Now let's sleep. Matsujun will be angry if we don't sleep enough tonight" Ohno pats Nino's back.
Nino nods. Knowing by his tone that Ohno is seconds to sleep. Just then, a question hits him hard. "Oh-chan...?", Nino whispers to check if Ohno has fell asleep or not. He only gets light snores as an an answer, signaling that Ohno has fell asleep. Nino, doesn't want to bother him, tries to sleep too. But as expected, he has a hard time to sleep when he can't erase the budging question in his head. So, to lighten the weight in his heart, he mumbles it out, "Nee, Oh-chan, how do you feels about me? Why didn't you say anything?"
