This is the side story to愛の嵐

When Matsumoto got back to his hotel room Nino was completely asleep wearing only a bathrobe around his skinny frame the bandage on his chest showing clearly. There were a few spots of blood showing through it and he decided that they would have to treat it again before they left. He was okay with marking Nino but if the younger man got an infection from it he would never forgive himself. He shed his working ‘skin’ and sank into a chair pinching his nose and letting out a loud sigh. Listening to Nino’s soft snores and trying to get them to relax the tension headache that had been building all day. Finally, though the trial was over and in the morning they could leave for Tokyo. His opponent had built a solid case but he had expected no less from his long-time rival and old friend Hamura Miku, he had had victory in the end but as always she had made him work for it. He pinched his nose wishing he had had the forethought to buy some pain medication the most he could do was take out his contacts and get some sleep. He could send Nino or one of the staff but he didn’t want to show weakness in front of Nino.

He removed his contacts and closed the curtains sealing the room in the dark before heading to the bed.

“Master, are you okay?” Nino whispered sleepily as he lay down beside him and Matsumoto nodded putting an arm around his waist and hugging him tightly

“Just a headache…” he whispered against Nino’s skin, breathing in the warm sweaty scent as his eyes started to close.

“Is there anything I can do?” was the next question and Matsumoto shook his head slowly

“Just stay here” He answered resting his head on the small bony chest “Tomorrow we will return to Tokyo…”

“I knew you’d win” Nino mumbled his hands going unasked to rub at his forehead and temples almost soothing the headache. The little brat, when they got home he would have to show him who the master was but for tonight he decided to let it slide and enjoy it. The fingers felt amazing on his aching head and soon he was drifting to sleep loving the feel of Nino around him.

He let out a moan as he heard a knocking at their hotel door, he wasn’t sure how long he had been asleep but it wasn’t long enough his head was still pounding to the sound of a drum and the door knocking wasn’t helping. Slowly Nino untangled himself from him and went to answer it

“Yes?” Nino murmured softly trying not to wake him and Matsumoto hid his smile in his pillow, as soon as the knock on the door he knew who it would be on the other side he would have told his slave to ignore it but he wanted to see some trace of the ‘Nino jealousy’ that Sakurai had told him about.

“Is Jun here, this is his room right?” A cheerful female voice said Matsumoto knew that he had been right about his guest.

“I’m sorry, Matsumoto-sama is sleeping” Nino answered his whole voice tanging with jealousy and the lawyer buried his face further as he waited for Miku to respond.

“Is it one of the ‘Jun’ headaches?” Miku asked with a laugh that caused him to wince “I knew he was going to get one so I brought him some pills…”

“Thank-you” Nino was saying his voice even stiffer now, and Matsumoto couldn’t stifle the laughter that was in his throat though it did agitate his headache more than a little.

“Its okay Nino… Miku come in” He said sitting up in the bed, feeling a little dizzy when he did so “Nino, come here” His slave was at his side instantly and the lawyer looked at him with one eye the other closed against the pain that was burning through his skull “What did I tell you about jealousy?” He asked and Nino face fell, he actually didn’t want to punish Nino for something he found pretty cute but with their recent confessions he believed that they had to work harder to maintain the balance of power in the master/slave relationship. He raised his hand and brought it down hard against Nino’s cheek the resounding noise filling the air so loudly Miku let out a gasp. “Make me a drink”

“Yes master…” Nino said meekly now, holding his cheek and looking over at Miku “Would you like one too?”

“I… Um… Yes please… Coffee, black with one sugar…” She nodded coming completely into the room and staring at Matsumoto. “I will never get used to that…” She muttered handing him the pain medication and the lawyer shrugged taking the pack and popping two into his mouth as Nino appeared at his side with a glass of water and a bright red cheek, he also noticed that he had split the bottom lip a little.

“Thank-you…” Matsumoto said taking the water and stroking the red patch at the lip “This is my friend and sometimes rival Hamura Miku, she went to college with me and Sho along with her girlfriend Ren… Miku this is Ninomiya Kazunari… My slave…and lover” he accented the word girlfriend carefully, though Nino should have been less threatened by the fact that she was a girl and he had absolutely no          interest in females just as Miku had no interest in males, in college there had been a time when they had posed as boyfriend and girlfriend the perfect couple of lawyers but it had all been an illusion created because they needed to appear ‘normal’.

“Nice to meet you…” Nino said with a polite bow though his face was still set in an almost glare even though his face must be still stinging from the slap.

“And you” Miku replied siting in the cream leather soft her legs up over the arm revealing more leg than was needed. Honestly she was still wearing her clothes from the trial, a dull light grey skirt suit but it was only now he realised the pencil skirt had a slit that ran up high on her thigh showing off her slim toned legs wrapped in sheer stockings. Other than that she looked every inch the perfect female lawyer but Matsumoto knew her better her and Ren were often at Redemption wearing much less. “So this is the kid… Hmm… Cute… Cuter than Sakurai anyway…”

Matsumoto didn’t even feel the need to argue it was the truth after all Sakurai was and never had been ‘cute’ sexy with a cold bad boy energy yes but never cute like Nino.

“Sho called you?”

“No, it was Ren, she was doing Toma’s hair and he mentioned you had a new brat and apparently so does he… So how long’s this one for? And Ren wants to know if its worth remembering his name…”

“Nino belongs to me…So yes you’d better remember his name…” Matsumoto muttered, his head was feeling better but it was only slightly and he was glad when Nino came back with a green tea for him and not the coffee he had for Miku “So what was the real reason you come by?”

“True… It wasn’t just to give you the pills… I heard you asking about the church of the morning star…Why?” Miku asked leaning forwards now and Matsumoto’s eyes flickered to Nino, who was kneeling beside him now, there was too much of a ‘non-expression’ on his face for the lawyer to believe it and he stroked his head lightly before he answered with

“I had just heard about it and I was interested… Why?”

“Because if you can avoid it stay away from them, I’m saying this as both another lawyer and a friend… They’re evil and their ‘father’ is as slippery as an eel…” Miku warned him and Nino stiffen slightly under his touch

“Don’t worry I can handle him” Matsumoto muttered with more confidence than he should have done but he was trying to reassure Nino more than his friend.
