Inoo gritted his teeth in annoyance. Facing an A3 sized-paper while pouring his new idea of mini-garden on it. No. It wasn’t because of he’s running out of ideas. It wasn’t because of JUMP who are noisy on their living room. And it wasn’t because of Daiki who hides his pencils so that he can’t draw it perfectly. Inoo is simply getting annoyed because ever since then, ever since he sat down on the floor and doodled on his book, Takaki kept staring at him without saying anything.
“If you want something from me, say it”, Inoo lost his patience, chuckled.
“Hmmm… I guess…. Nothing?”, he replied. A playful grin is hung up on his face.
“And then what’s with you? A staring contest? New trap to distract me from my work?”
“Noooo… you’re so cruel. I’d never wanted to disturb you”
“But you are!!”
“I just love it. Seeing you play with your pencil, ruler, and eraser. You look professional.” He winked. And Inoo is so touched until he wants to puke right on those failed pick-up lines. “That’s my boy…”, Takaki added.
“But you are too close!! Who’ll observe his boyfriend from 30 cms gap?! God, I even smelled your cigarette-ish breathe!!”
“Mmhmmm…”
“And you used orange flavor of Listerine! I told you that I don’t like orange!!”
“Mmmmhhmmm…”
“Yuya, you hear me?!!”
“Mmhhmmm….”
“Then what did I say?! Can you get the hint?!”
“Oh, of course. I knew you love my cigarette-ish smell. Come come, I’ll give you a kiss so you can taste it directly~~”
“BAKA!!!”, Inoo yelled out. And a moment later, his book is flying in the air, landed right at Takaki’s handsome face with medium strength. The pretty guy stands up quickly, ignoring the hellish sound of his boyfriend’s teasy laughter. As his face grows hotter and red due to previous cheesy flirts.

“Hey, are you free tomorrow?!”, Takaki sits beside Inoo. Wiping his sweaty forehead after practicing. The younger guy is tilting his face, glancing with full curiosity at the brunet.
“Why?”
“You should be free tomorrow because guess what, I will take you on a date~~ yaayy~~”, he whined
“Huh?”, Inoo snorted. He couldn’t help but watched as Takaki showed him an obvious hint of sealed promise. “We had dates before, and what’s so new about it?”
“Well, no matter what, you should come with me tomorrow”
“Why? Because you’ll die tomorrow?”
“Haiiisshhh!!!”, Takaki smacked the brown-headed guy. The words he’d just said is totally out of sync with his original plan. “Can you say something better than that?!”
“Hmm… I don’t know.”, Inoo shrugged it off. Taking his mineral water and ignoring Takaki. But anyhow, he could just sigh in defeat when his childish boyfriend reminded him to be ready for tomorrow. A fix date will start on 9 a.m. and Takaki will pick him up.

“Oh, we should pay for the tickets first”, Takaki said when they’re on the front cashier. Numbers of people are drawing a line in front of them. All seemed so excited to visit this new amusement park which is just opened a month ago. Inoo disagreed at first, but Takaki showed his pinky finger for not dragging him near to roller-coaster or other similar rides. “Wait, where’s my wallet… chotto…”
“Let me treat you”, Inoo decided
“Eh? Why? I was the one asking you”
“The last time we dated, you treated me full course. I just don’t want to have whatever kind of debts.”
“You’re too much. Treating you isn’t a debt”, Takaki sighed. Felling a little bit uneasy at Inoo’s statement. But the younger guy didn’t even care to clarify. And he knows whatever he gonna say, it won’t change Inoo’s stubborn mind. “But since you offered yourself, so why not? Yay…”, he added. And a wide smile blooms all over his face.
“Tsk…”
“Hand me your money”
As Takaki said so, his hand makes a fast move. Slipping in Inoo’s jeans pocket and leads the latter jolts due to the sudden unexpected touch. Add to that, Inoo could feel Takaki is randomly touching his tights area, slowly pressing.
“What are you doing?!”, Inoo smashed the brunet’s hand, kicking him out.
“Looking for your wallet”
“Screw you!! My wallet isn’t here!! It’s on my bag!!”
“Owwhhh~~~”
“You did it on purpose!!!”
“Whatever… Your brother likes it anyway. He is standing down there…” Takaki whispered.
And the next thing Takaki could feel is a hard punch on his stomach. With Inoo leaving him alone on the counter, walking by himself without feeling slightly sorry.

“Stop it!! We’re on public place just so you know!!”, Inoo warned
“Mmmnghh…”
“Yuya!!!”
“I am just fulfilling your wish!!”
“What wish?!!”
“Who’ll eat ice cream and leave those strains around their lips on your age?!! Are you a kid?!! You’re clearly inviting me!!”
“Damn you!! I wasn’t signaling anything!! And if you want to wipe these creams, use your hand!! Not your tongue!!!”
“Tsk… so noisy”

The sunshine slipped through the crystal window. Blue-orangish. As the sun is almost setting at the end of the road, washed on Inoo’s side profile, showed his perfect pretty feature and Takaki had every right to be mesmerized by a view in front of him. The ferris wheel is spinning slowly, and Takaki waits for Inoo to say something. But instead, the boyfriend of him is just looking down there, to the turmoil with number of couples as the background.
“Hey…”, Takaki begins
“What?”, Inoo finally turned his eyes.
“Do you remember what day is today?”
The pretty guy frowned hardly. Trying to remember and slightly frustrated because he couldn’t get any hints. It is definitely not their anniversary, not their first encounter day, not their first date, it isn’t any of those specific reasons. But the grin on Takaki’s face is haunting him, like Inoo is too corpsified to recall for himself.
“Well, it seems like you don’t remember….”, he guessed, which is nothing but true.
“Sorry…”
Takaki shrugged. “You don’t have to”, and a moment later, he stands up from his current seat, moved besides Inoo and close the gap between them. “Today is the first time we hung out together, as a friend. We went to sea and spent a whole day just two of us. I reasoned out to invite you, and my pick-up line was about how we supposed to have fresh air sometimes and well… it sounded pretty terrible.”
“Sure. You always fail at choosing the proper pick-up lines.” Inoo said, “But I was too preoccupied that time until I didn’t even care to your failed attempt.”
A view of blue sky, soft sand, and unlimited emerald green of water are appearing inside his mind. Sure, he won’t forget when Takaki asked him to hang out for the very first time, and how eerily nervous he was at the moment. They’ve been into same group for seven years, but still the first experience is always thrilling. Takaki Yuya is just somehow different with the rest of members. The one who always makes him confused, and it felt like they’re playing pull-and-push game all over the time.
But it was then. Now, he doesn’t even mind when Takaki suddenly rests his head upon his shoulder right like what he did by this point.
“See… This is our first selfie”
Takaki showed him a picture where both of them made ugly faces. A clear photo which is mentally reminisced for both parties. The older guy stick his tongue out while the younger put his famous duck face. But however, one could tell they had great vacation from those endless happiness flowing through their eyes.
“So it’s been a while since our first trip, nee…”
“Un… and since that time we often had meals together. And I was silently happy when we were paired up in almost all magazines. And your unconscious confession on our concert”
“My confession?”
“Unmei no hito wa Yuya desu…”
“Oh that one….”, Inoo laughed. “Yeah and after that, you smiled idiotically.”
“Don’t call me idiot!”, Takaki smacked Inoo’s arm for once. “But well, since then, you kept telling how you wanted to promote TakaIno, that we were family with those two twins, and our pet-shop plan, and I was just-I was just figuring out how we’re actually similar despite that we’re too different”
“So just kiss me now”
“What?”
“Kiss me? Just consider it as your prize since I didn’t remember that we should keep those moments in mind…”
Then Takaki laughed, which is oddly expected to get such a respond from his boyfriend. And by all means, he granted the wish, picked up the trophy. Their lips brushed softly amidst this lazy turbulence happening. He hadn’t thought this is the right moment to share a kiss, inside a ferris wheel, nearly sounds like a typical shojo manga. But it can’t be helped. Because the relationship between them is never really going on with the plans. It just came out naturally, without any force, just like now.
“So…”, Takaki whispered. “Today, I am the winner…”
“Well, if it comes to this kind of stuff, you’ll always win…”
Inoo Kei, for some person, is a quiet pretty guy. Inoo Kei, for members, is a random and annoying guy who has this messing-up-around aura. Inoo Kei, for fans, is a charming prince and randomly smart guy. And mostly, for Takaki Yuya, Inoo Kei is a tsundere who actually a silent fan of being masochistic-ed. A guy who loves to bully him but always protects him when other members did the same. A guy who he wants to kick and kiss at the same time. A guy who he doesn’t really understand, but he will always try to.
And then everyone knows all the things about Inoo Kei are just perfectly clicked with everything in Takaki Yuya.

A/N: This prompt was originally Keiyuki's idea. When I was running out of proper basic materials, she helped me to think about new drabbles. Sorry it took me a long time to finish it. And somehow it didn't turn out like I was expecting. Tachan sucks >:(
