Summary: Sho made a U-turn to jimusho.
On his way back to his apartment, Sho realized he left his wallet in Arashi’s dressing room at the jimusho. His driver’s license was in the wallet, so he had to turn back. After parking his car, he went straight to Arashi’s dressing room. When he reached his destination, he was surprised to see the light still on. The door wasn’t closed properly too. Sho slowly pushed the door open. He was surprised that Aiba was still there, sitting on the couch.
Sho slowly walked toward the smaller man. “Masaki,” he called out when he was standing behind Aiba. The other man didn’t reply. “Masaki,” Sho said again, putting his hand on Aiba’s shoulder.
Startled, Aiba jerked a bit. He turned around. “Sho?” he said. The older man nodded his head. “I thought you went home already.”
“I forgot my wallet,” Sho said, looking pointedly at the coffee table. Indeed, Sho’s wallet was there.
“Oh,” was the only thing Aiba said.
Sho sat beside Aiba. “Ne, Masaki, you’ve been weird lately.”
“What do you mean?” Aiba asked, faking a smile.
“You seem distracted lately, and you’re not as cheerful as always,” Sho said. He added in softly, “And you’re more careful now.”
“It’s nothing,” Aiba answered, his voice barely above whisper.
Sho looked directly at Aiba, who looked away from Sho. The older man sighed. He knew that Aiba was hiding something. He knew the younger man long enough to know all his habits. Sho sighed. “Well, if you don’t want to tell me, I guess I’ll be heading home, Masaki,” Sho said. He took his wallet from the table, and stood up. However, before he could walk away, Aiba grabbed the sleeve of Sho’s shirt.
“Stay,” Aiba, who was still looking at the floor, said.
Sho nodded his head and sat back beside Aiba. Aiba looked up at Sho, his eyes filled with tears. Sho was taken aback.
“Masaki, is there something wrong?” Sho asked. “Is it something that I did?”
Aiba shook his head. “No,” he said. “You didn’t do anything wrong.” Suddenly he felt a twinge in his stomach, and he winced. He quickly wrapped his hands around his abdomen.
Sho went to his lover’s side, looking at him full of concern. “Masaki!”
Aiba gave him a small smile. “I’m fine,” he answered.
“No, you weren’t,” Sho said. “You were obviously in pain.”
Aiba continued smiling and took Sho’s hand. Sho looked at Aiba, confused, as the smaller man put Sho’s hand on his stomach. Aiba put his own hand on top of Sho’s. “Can you feel it?”
“Feel what?” Sho asked, and before Aiba could answer, he felt a slight tingle from Aiba’s stomach. He looked at Aiba, his eyes widened.
“That’s our baby, Sho,” Aiba said, burying his hand in Sho’s jacket.
Sho wrapped his hands gently around Aiba. “But how did that happen?”
“I don’t know,” Aiba said. “Even the doctors don’t know.” He let out a chuckle, but it sounded more like a sob. “I’m such a freak.”
“No, you’re not, Masaki,” Sho said. “Please don’t call yourself names.”
“But I’m a man, pregnant,” Aiba said, his breath hitched.
“I don’t care what the world thinks, Masaki,” Sho said. “I’ll be by your side all the way.” He caressed Aiba’s hair. “And I know the other Arashi members will too.”
“Thank you.”
“I love you, Masaki.”
