Oretachi no Omoide - Chap 13
Chapter 13: In which lonely people meet…
Aiba sat at a small café’s terrace and watched his former workplace on the other side of the street. Last week Shimura-san had to close down the shop finally. They managed to find a new home to most of the pets but not to all of them and it made Aiba extremely unhappy. If he could, he would’ve built that shelter with his own two hands so these animals would have a new home, but he couldn’t…
Soft whining noises pulled him out his daydreaming.
“It’s okay, Shibu-chan, I’m here…” he said and bent down to caress the puppy.
Her brothers were taken but none wanted to take her so Aiba begged to Sho to take her in and in the end Sho gave in. (Actually, Aiba tried to make Sho agree on take in all the left over pets but it didn’t work no matter what Aiba offered in exchange.)
When the puppy still didn’t stop whining Aiba sighed.
“Okay, got it. We’re going…” he said smiling.
Aiba paid for his iced coffee then they walked down in the morning crowd toward the nearest park.
Just when they wanted to enter the park, Aiba noticed someone who stood a few meters away, reading a newspaper.
“Are?... Ikuta-kun?” Aiba run to the other guy cheerily.
Toma looked up and smiled shyly when he recognized Aiba.
“Oh, hi there, Aiba-san! What are you doing here?” he asked smiling.
“Mooouuu! Don’t call me ‘Aiba-san’! I’m not that old, and you’re not a schoolboy!” Aiba whined for a bit. “And we were just on the way to the park with Shibu-chan…”
“Hai, Aiba-chan!” Toma laughed. “Can I come too?” he asked then looking at the puppy.
“Sure!”
They chatted and laughed happily as they know each other for years.
In the park they sat at a bench while Shibu-chan run up and down on the grassy field before them.
“Ne, Toma-chan! And what are you doing here?” Aiba asked once.
“Oh… well… I’m looking for an apartment cause, you know, me and my father…” Tome frowned here and left the sentence unfinished.
“Is that so?” Aiba nodded, then his eyes lit up and he jumped up from the bench. “Oh! I know!” he shouted laughing and then run off to gather Shibu-chan.
“What is it, Aiba-chan?” Toma asked confused.
“Come on, Toma-chan!” Aiba said sparkling eyes and grabbed the younger boy’s wrist and started running.
Aiba and Toma stopped panting in front of the apartment’s door and the older started to ring the bell furiously.
“Na… nah…ni… Aiba-chan?” Toma asked gasping for air.
“I’m getting an apartment to you…” Aiba grinned at him. “I lived here till Sho-chan asked me to move in with him so now Jun-tan needs a new flatmate. But he’s too proud to admit it… And you need a place, right?” Aiba said smiling widely. “I don’t understand it… he’s always at home at this time…” Aiba muttered and rang the bell a few more times.
“Okay, I heard it in the first time already, you don’t have to push that button this much!” a rather annoyed Jun opened the door. “Oh, Ma-chan…” his face changed as soon as he saw him.
“Hello, Jun-pon! Did I wke you up? Sorry…” Aiba said but he didn’t look like he feel sorry for it.
Without waiting for an invitation, Aiba pulled Toma and Shibu-chan into the apartment next to Jun who wore only pj’s and robe. Toma smiled at him sheepishly, it was obvious that he felt uncomfortable in the situation being dragged into a stranger’s home.
“Ma-chan! It’s not that I don’t love you or something… but I had a night photo shoot yesterday, I slept least than three hours before you woke me up and I still have a show in the afternoon. So if you’d be nice enough to enlighten me why you’re here, I’d be rather grateful…” Jun said sighing as he closed the door and followed the others into the living room; because it was Aiba, he could do nothing but go with the flow for a while. “And I told you a thousand times not to bring animals into the apartment!” he added looking at the puppy.
“Gomen, Jun-pon! But she’s not just an animal. She’s Shibu-chan. Sho-chan and me take her in after…”
“Ma-chan! The important details, please!” Jun cut in more annoyed.
“Gomen…” Aiba mumbled. “So, he’s Ikuta Toma. His father will help us building the shelter, though Sho-chan didn’t decide it yet…”
Jun cleared his throat and shot death glares at Aiba. He loved Aiba, he really does, but he slept way too less, his time to rest more was lessen with every minute and in the first place: Aiba mentioned that man the second time already though they arrived less than five minutes ago!
Catching Jun’s eyes, Aiba realized that he changed the topic again. He smiled guilty at the model.
“So the important thing is Toma-chan needs a place and I thought he might take my old room… You need a flatmate anyway and…” Aiba explained his idea.
“No” Jun cut in without hesitation.
Aiba looked at him wide eyes and blinked a few times confused.
“What… what do you mean ‘no’?” he asked finally.
“I mean as I said, no. As I said the last time, I don’t need a new flatmate! You’ll move back in that room or none will move in there!” Jun said assertively and crossed his arms on his chest.
Toma stood silently next to Aiba and lowered his head at this. He didn’t really believe that it will be this easy to find an apartment but somehow Jun harsh words hurt more than he thought they will. But again, he was Matsumoto Jun, he had the right to be picky with whom he want to live with. And it was way too obvious that he’s in love with Aiba. (Maybe Aiba was the only one who couldn’t see it…)
“Ano… Matsumoto-san… Sumimasen, to barge in your apartment without invitation” Toma said and bowed a bit. “Aiba-chan, I think it would be better if we leave now…” he said turning to Aiba then he bowed toward Jun once more and headed to the door but Aiba didn’t move an inch.
“Jun-pon! Don’t do it! Toma-chan needs a place!” Aiba whined more to Jun.
“No! And anyway… he’s the heir of the Ikuta Group, isn’t he? I don’t think he needs my apartment to stay in…” Jun said.
Toma jumped a bit hearing this. He hated when people see nothing more but the next head of the Ikuta Financial Group in him. He was a person too, thank you very much!
“Juuuuuun! At least think about it a bit… Please! For me!” Aiba looked at him with puppy eyes.
Jun sighed resignedly and looked at Toma.
“Okay, I’ll think about it but just because you asked me to…”
“Yatta! Thanks, Jun-pon, you’re the best!” Aiba shouted and hugged Jun tightly.
“I don’t mean yet that he can move in!” Jun reminded him but Aiba knew him better. “And if you don’t mind leaving now so I can sleep a few more hours…” with this he went back to his room and slammed his door closed.
“Ne, Sho-chan! Guess whom I met today!” Aiba said cheerily while he feed Shibu-chan that night.
Sho was sitting in their living room reading newspaper.
“I have no idea” he said without looking up.
“You’re no fun” Aiba pout a bit. “With Toma-chan!” he announced then.
At this Sho put aside his paper.
“’Toma-chan’… you mean, Ikuta Toma?” Sho asked suspiciously.
“Yeah!” Aiba smiled at him. “Nee, Sho-chan, did you decide what you’ll say to Ikuta-san about the contract?” he asked curiously and cocked his head to the side.
“It’s us, not me, Masaki. And our answer is no” Sho said firmly and grabbed his paper again.
Aiba pouted at it but Sho was too busy with the daily economic changes to notice it. When Aiba realized he’ll achieve nothing with just pouting he decided to use more effective weapons.
He sneaked behind Sho unnoticed and wrapped his arms around his shoulders and started to hint feather light kisses on his neck. Sho tried to pretend that Aiba’s ministration has no effect on him but in the end the paper shook in his hands and it betrayed him.
“It… won’t work… you know…” Sho said to guard his remaining pride and needed all his strength not to moan.
“Hmm… I don’t know what you are talking about, Sho-chan…” Aiba whispered sucking at the sensitive skin behind Sho’s ear and Sho could feel him smirk.
Aiba’s hands started to roamed over Sho’s cloth covered chest touching lightly his hardening nipples before one of his hands slipped under his shirt and his fingers played with the hem of his jeans…
This was the breaking point to Sho. Aiba knew his weak points too well! Sho moaned and bucked his hips up a bit.
“Okay… you won! I’ll call… Ikuta-san… tomorrow and… tell him… we’ll sign the… contract… but now finish what you started!” Sho whimpered.
Aiba smiled victoriously into Sho’s neck then he turned Sho’s face toward him with one hand to kiss him properly while his other hand slipped into Sho’s pants and stroked his hardening member. Sho groaned into the kiss…
A/N: yaay! I finished this chap!^^ I'll try to return the mostly dayly updates like before this but I can't promise anything sure cause right now my RL is a bit messy... sorry...
