A/N: Nino is younger than everyone else in this,
Happy belated birthday to Keiko_Artemis
Nino wanted to go towards the man but Matsu grabbed his hand again holding him tightly
“Nino… But you’re dead” The sleepy guy said moving forwards slowly, looking very much like he was seeing a ghost, tears were in his eyes and Nino tried to process what he had said, he was dully aware that Matsu was asking him questions but he couldn’t take his eyes away from the fisherman, Ohno Satoshi he had been Rikos boyfriend two years ago, he had always been fond of him. He had always had time for him when his mother and sister hadn’t, unable to stand the tears in his eyes Nino pulled his hand free again and hugged him tightly. Ohno was still mumbling about him being ‘dead’
“Kazu, who is this?”
“M-My sister’s boyfriend” Nino answered pulling away quickly, hanging his head when he saw the almost hard glint in Matsu’s eyes
“Ex-boyfriend” Ohno corrected softly not taking his eyes from Nino for a minute before turning to face Matsu giving him a polite bow “Ohno Satoshi”
“Matsumoto Jun”
“Nino, please tell me what’s going on” Ohno said looking back at Nino again, Nino didn’t know what to say his mouth had gone dry, his sister and mother had told people that he was dead, is that how they had gotten to sleep every night? By pretending that he really was dead, his head was spinning and he felt sick. He supposed saying that he was dead was easier for them than saying ‘I sold him into slavery to pay for my husband’s gambling debts’
“I-I ran away” He whispered his voice trembling, Ohno’s eyes narrowed
“You ran away? You let people think you were dead for two years, why? You could sometimes be a bit of a brat, Nino but I never thought you would be so selfish…” Nino flinched as the words washed over him, he felt Matsu move to say something but he reached out and grabbed his arm, silently pleading with him. The taller guy clicked his tongue but otherwise stayed silent Ohno turned back to him obviously remembering their linked fingers “So you ran away to be with him?”
“If we’re going to talk about this I suggest somewhere more private” Matsu said aware that they were attracting a lot of looks from the other fishermen on the bank. Ohno nodded gathering his things, Nino looked at his feet unable to stand Matsu’s raised eyebrow glare when Ohno had re-joined them they walked in an almost heavy silence to an inn. Matsu asked for a private room and although Ohno gave Nino a surprised look the younger said nothing, when they sat Nino sat as close to Matsu as possible without actually sitting on his lap. Ohno it seemed had calmed down and there wasn’t any trace of anger in his voice when he said
“Please, Nino, tell me what’s going on… What happened to your arm?” seeing the bandage for the first time
“Ac-Accident” Nino answered his voice was so small and faint, Matsu felt him tremble very slowly he reached down and very lightly stroked his hand with his fingers trying to reassure him. He wanted to stay but he thought that maybe they would both feel easier without him being there
“Kazu, I’m going to the bathroom, answer your friends questions, okay?” He said in a calm steady voice but it was obviously an order, Nino looked at him and nodded “Good boy” Matsu smiled ruffling his hair before leaving the room. There was an uncomfortable heavy silence in the air for a while and Nino fidgeted playing with a loose part of his bandage
“What really happened?” Ohno asked motioning to his arm,
“It wasn’t Matsu” Nino answered realising that was what the older guy must be thinking
“Nino, why won’t you tell me what’s going on, is it because of that guy?” Nino didn’t speak, looking down at the table, he really had liked Ohno back then, and seeing the hurt and disappointment in his eyes was more painful than any physical blow but he couldn’t bring himself to tell him the truth. Riko had complained once that Ohno was unfeeling an never thought about anyone else, Nino knew that wasn’t true, Ohno probably thought more about other people than he did himself. He remembered whenever he had gotten a pay check he had always treated Nino to a meal or a new game, Ohno had always been his shelter, he could only imagine how much it had hurt him to hear of his ‘death’ during his time with the fat man, he had almost forgotten all about Ohno. Ohno who was so sweet and nice, he hadn’t wanted to drag in to that black room, over time when he did think about him, he thought that maybe he had imagined him, that nobody could have really been that nice. “Nino you vanish for two years, even your mum and sister think you’re dead then you turn back up, pale and acting nothing like yourself wrapped in a bandage with someone that treats you like you’re a pet, does your mum and Riko even know you’re alive?”
“I-I sa-w Riko-nee,” Nino nodded
“But you haven’t seen your mum? Come on, Nino tell me something…”
“I, wa-nted to be… With Ma-tsu’ so I ran awa-y” Nino said looking at the table
“Is he beating you?”
“N-No, he’s never hit me” Nino said quickly it was the truth Matsu had never hit him, and even with the way he had been acting before Matsu hadn’t even looked like he would hit him even though he was his master. Ohno let out a loud sigh, folding his arms across his chest, Nino flinched looking back at the table
“Nino-chan, please explain… Tell me something I can believe… If you had gone to be with that guy you’d have only been 15, so unless he’s a paedophile there’s something you’re not telling me… I know things were tough on you but if you were really having problems you know you could have told me…”
“I-I’m sorry…” Nino whispered and Ohno let out a long sigh coming from behind the table, Nino felt tears stinging in his eyes as he looked at him “I’m really sorry Sato-nii” Ohno moved swiftly around the table and hugged him tightly being careful of his arm.
“I’m not really mad, Nino, I’m happy you’re alive, I just can’t believe it” he said, Nino sagged against him breathing in that warm familiar scent he pulled away quickly as the door opened and Matsu came back in. He raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything and Nino hurried to his side, Ohno made a confused face, he knew Nino was in something he couldn’t get out off. He didn’t like the way Nino was acting around the taller guy and there was the whole thing about his arm, he didn’t believe it was an ‘accident’. Matsu rubbed Nino’s back soothingly
“Kazu, do you want a drink?”
“Um… Th-ank-you” He nodded
“Is Pepsi okay?” Matsu asked gently and again Nino nodded, he then looked at Ohno “Would you like something?”
“Green tea” Ohno answered, Matsu pulled the cord for a member of staff, who bustled in shortly after. Matsu ordered the drinks and then very calmly wrote down their address
“You should come and visit” He said, Nino looked at him but didn’t say anything Ohno took the paper his eyebrows almost vanishing into his hair line.
“You live here?” He asked looking at Nino, who nodded quickly as the waiter brought in their drinks. Nino watched his old friend he asking himself why Ohno and Riko had broken up. He had always wondered what Ohno had seen in his sister, they were completely different people, Riko was out going with a million and a half friends, where Ohno preferred his own company and Nino’s when he had forced himself on him. He could remember Riko complaining when they had been going to the cinema and Ohno had insisted that Nino come along too. It had been a horror film and he had jumped whenever the creepy music had started, after the third time Ohno had gripped his hand tightly and held it for the rest of the film. Nino blinked coming back to the present when he felt Matsu touch his arm
“Don’t you like it?” He asked motioning to the drink, Nino took a drink quickly the ice cubes had already started to melt giving it an almost flat taste but it helped to sooth his mouth that had felt painfully dry. “Are you hungry?”
“N-Not yet” Nino answered shaking his head quickly. “Sato-nii... Do… Do you still work in the bakery?”
“Yeah, I’m there full time now… What about you? You should be still in school right?” Ohno said almost pointedly flashing a glance at Matsu, Nino froze not knowing what to answer or even how to answer,
“I don’t… Go to… School…” He admitted slowly but then thought about his experiments with Aiba, “I do some science though…”
“And you, Matsumoto-san?”
“I run my family’s business” Matsu told him smoothly, but then again Nino thought, it wasn’t a lie after all. They fell into another silence and finished their drinks, Ohno looked at his watch and gave a small groan
“I have to get back for my shift this afternoon… Nino-chan, do you still remember my number?” He asked, Nino shook his head and Ohno pulled out his phone, “Do you have a mobile?” Nino looked at Matsu he had the one that had been given to him but as Aiba had said only three people knew the number he wasn’t sure if Matsu would be okay with someone else having it. Matsu just gave a small nod and Nino pulled out the phone, it was the latest android one that seemed to have more features and gadgets than needed for a phone. One that simply dialled out and received calls would work just as well, Nino thought as he tried to figure out how to store a number and retrieve his own. It took some time but he managed it in the end, “I’ll ring you soon okay? Don’t vanish on me again Nino, please”
“I-I won’t, Sato-nii” Nino promised quickly, feeling guilty again. Ohno gave a polite bow to Matsu and pulled Nino into a tight hug, which felt like it wouldn’t end, Nino suspected that the older guy was crying again. He rubbed his back and very reluctantly Ohno pulled away staring at him as if trying to memorise his face before leaving.
“Are you okay?” Matsu asked as the door closed, Nino nodded very slowly
“I… Didn’t th-ink I’d se-e Sato-nii again…” He whispered, Matsu studied his face, he had the feeling that Nino wanted to run and hide, he hadn’t really wanted to go out that morning but Matsu hadn’t wanted him to be able to sit around thinking about what had happened with Sakamoto. When Aiba had told him what he had done he really had wanted to kill him but just thinking about Nino’s fearful face had stopped him pulling the trigger. Right now Nino looked as if the weight of the world was on his shoulders, he was still looking at the number Ohno had given him, and Matsu wanted to know who he was to Nino unable to believe the ‘sister’s boyfriend’ from the way they had looked at each other there was more to it than that. He wanted to know so much but more than anything right now he wanted to be able lift the dark shadows that had formed once again in his eyes.
“Come on” he said patting Nino’s shoulder, he paid for their drinks and then started walking again on the path where they had met Ohno. It didn’t take long to reach the clearing and Nino gave a small excited gasp as he looked around
“This is where that picture was taken” He said and Matsu smiled he really wanted to take a photo of the happy expression on his face but Nino still hadn’t given him permission so he couldn’t. The clearing was almost exactly the same as it was in the photo, Matsu took off one of his cameras
“Yeah, I saw that your photo was scratched…Here take one”
“Huh… I-I can’t…” Nino said holding up his bandaged hand
“Try, it’s not that hard, you can use it one handed all you do is point and click” Matsu smiled, Nino looked at the camera shaking his head
“There’s more to it than that, all your pictures… You can…Feel the emotions from them” he said hoping that he was making sense. Matsu gave a pleased smile but pushed the camera into his hand, Nino gripped it tightly with his good hand afraid that it would fall
“You can do it, Kazu” Matsu said softly taking up another camera and then walking off away from him, Nino watched him for a bit, he didn’t know what to photograph there was no way he would be able to take beautiful pictures like Matsu, the taller guy had already started taking photos and Nino was amazed at serious his expression had become. There didn’t seem to be any pattern to what he took photos of and then he remembered what he had been told in the studio. ‘You should only take pictures of what you want to’ with that thought in his mind he started taking pictures. He wasn’t sure how many he should take and what seemed like all too soon the camera made a funny noise telling him he was out of film. Matsu came back to him
“I-I d-don’t know…if they’re any good…”
“We’ll see when we develop them” The taller guy smiled stroking his cheek, “Are you feeling tired?”
“N-No… Bu-t my arm hurts” He admitted, Matsu kissed him lightly slowly on the mouth and Nino blushed a hot red aware that though it was pretty quiet here there were still a few people doted around. One man was shielding his son’s eyes while muttering ‘disgusting’ rather loudly, Matsu turned putting an arm around Nino’s shoulders and giving him an icy glare.
“Do you have a problem?” he hissed and the man hurried his son away, they went for a meal at restaurant that was by the sea front, Nino didn’t really care for sea food but it was worth eating it to see the light happy look on Matsu’s face while it ate clams. After eating Nino took some painkillers for his arm and they went for a walk along the sea front. Nino was surprised but happy that Matsu hadn’t asked about Ohno, he still couldn’t work out his own mind or settle his own feelings about meeting the older guy again. The sky was almost glowing with a fierce red when they started to head back to the car, they didn’t head back to Tokyo though instead Matsu drove them to a hotel that over looked the ocean. They bathed together, with Matsu making sure that his arm didn’t get wet, while he nuzzled and kissed his neck while his hand moved over his body “Touching you feeling amazing Kazu” He whispered and Nino blushed at the thought that popped into his head ‘Being touched by you feels better’ after they had gotten out of the bath they barely had time to dry before Matsu was pushing him down onto the be that smelt faintly of rose petals. Nino’s skin was almost aching to be touched by Matsu and Matsu was happy to comply, he remembered the map of Nino’s body so easily he knew which points would make him shiver, cry and tremble and Matsu attacked them all until Nino was a panting mess in the middle of the bed, Matsu watched his face when he carefully pushed his fingers inside The expression on Nino’s face nearly made him come without being touched, he prepared him quickly not wanting to be outside that warmth any longer. When Matsu pushed into him, Nino gave a small whimper, it didn’t hurt as much as it had yesterday, but with each thrust that over whelming heat built up he heard himself beg for the taller guy to move ‘harder’ and ‘faster’ and when Matsu did so, he fell into being only able to gasp his name. They spilled over together, giving loud groans of pleasure. Neither moved for a while basking on the wonderful afterglow that had filled their bodies
“You’re dema-nding… when it comes to… sex ne?” Matsu panted in his ear, and Nino’s heart raced and his eyes widened
“I’m… So-rry…” He stammered and Matsu kissed him lazily
“Don’t be… in cases like this… you can be… as demanding as you want…” He said his breathing becoming regular again as he pulled out and rolled over. He pulled Nino so they were both on their sides facing each other
“Who was that guy?” he asked
“He was Nee-chan’s boyfriend two years ago… He was always nice to me” Nino answered almost purring as Matsu’s fingers ran up and down his side, “We never had much money but Sato-nii, when he got paid he would buy me games and take me out to get hamburgers he even took me fishing until I got sea sick”
“Sounds like he was more in love with you than he was your sister”
“Sato-nii, wasn’t like that!” Nino snapped with more force than Matsu had heard before, he stared at Nino who quickly hung his head “S-sorry… I never found easy to make friends, Sato-nii he was always there for me…”
“Why did you tell him you ran away? Why not tell him the truth?”
“I didn’t want him to know…” Nino answered shuffling closer to him so that Matsu couldn’t see his face, Matsu sighed hugging him tightly
“You were trying to defend your mum and sister?”
“Is that wrong?”
“No… But sometimes, Kazu some people they don’t deserve it…” Matsu told him, Nino made no sign if he heard him and a few moments later Nino had fallen to sleep.
*”You think anybody cares that you’re here?” The fat man asked as the cane sliced into his skin, “You’ve been here for eight months do you think anyone would miss you?” Nino didn’t answer keeping his eyes on the wall, a face rose up in his mind but he tried to force it away. That person didn’t belong in here. He told himself as he felt the cane again and again on his back. The image refused to stay away, ‘Sato-nii’ he thought seeing that sleepy smiling face, tears that he had kept locked away rose up in his eyes and spilled over, racing hotly down his cheeks, “Do you? Do you think anybody cares about you?” The fat man asked again
“Sa-Sato-nii” He said and then screamed “Sato-nii…”
Matsu woke as he heard Nino moaning in his sleep he switched the light on his heart aching as he heard “Sato-nii” come from Nino’s lip’s, Nino’s eyes opened but Matsu knew he wasn’t fully awake when he whispered “Sato-nii?” while looking at him
“I’m here Nino-chan” He said softly doing his best to impersonate the guy from earlier, it seemed to work when Nino smiled brightly and hugged him burying his face against his shoulder
“I missed Sato-nii, so much”
“M-Me too, Nino-chan” Matsu told him while stroking his face “You should go back to sleep ne?”
“Love… I love Sato-nii”
“I love you too, Kazu” He whispered falling back into his own voice, Nino smiled falling back into a deep sleep. Matsu watched him for a while running his fingers over his face, before switching out the light again. The next morning Nino didn’t remember either the dream or his talk with ‘Sato-nii’ they had breakfast in the hotel, ignoring the looks they were getting, before driving back to Tokyo. Although Nino didn’t remember he suspected that he had done something to upset Matsu, because even though Matsu didn’t say anything he just kept his eyes on the road and chewed his lip thoughtfully. When they got back to the house he vanished to his studio, Aiba beamed at him when he saw him and Nino saw that there were bright red love bites doted all over his neck and from the gap in his shirt he could see that they followed onto his chest.
“Sho-chan acts all stuck up but when he’s going at it you can’t stop him” Aiba giggled noticing his gaze “Not that I ever put up much of a fight” Nino didn’t know what to say and Aiba hit him lightly on the back “So what did you do yesterday?” Nino told him about his day at the coast not leaving anything out
“But you were gone all night”
“We… Went to a hotel” Nino told him, Aiba let out a howl of laughter when he saw Nino’s cheeks go a hot tomato red.
“So this guy, Ohno… What was he to you really?”
“What do you mean?”
“Was he just a friend or did you dream about fucking him?”
“He was my sister’s boyfriend, I thought he was weird at first, but… He always seemed to know when I was lonely, he let me be a brat to him and just smiled at me… He was my only friend…”
“Sounds like he was a good guy, ne”
“He is” Nino answered with a smile. Aiba was about to say something else when a green light flashed on his arm band
“Sho-chan, wants me” He said with a bright smile, after Aiba had gone Nino thought about what Aiba had said. He had never imagined doing anything like that with Ohno but then again he hadn’t thought about doing that with any guy. He closed his eyes trying to picture Ohno kissing and touching him like Matsu did, he couldn’t do it, he could only see Matsu’s eyes as he lay over him, they shone brightly in his mind, Nino moaned loudly and he realised he had been touching himself. Blushing he went to the bathroom to clean up just as his phone rang with an unfamiliar ringtone, looking at it, it was an unknown number, he knew it would be Ohno but his hand trembled as he answered it
“H-Hai, Mos-hi, Mosh?”
“Nino-chan?”
“Sato-nii?”
“Yeah… Sorry I forgot to recharge my phone so I’m using Nee-chan’s, Nino… I’ve been trying to make sense of everything all night but I can’t… Would it be okay to visit you?”
“I-I… Um… I-I’d ha-ve to ask Ma-Matsu…” Nino answered
“Well could you ask him?”
“Um… I-I’ll…Ring you back” He said hanging up quickly, Nino didn’t know what else to say, Matsu hadn’t called for him and he had been acting strangely since that morning so he didn’t want to disturb him, biting his lip he pressed Aibas name on the panel beside the bed. Aiba came into the room smiling happily
“Is everything okay?”
“I-I need to talk to Ma-tsu” He said “Um… I…”
“He’s having lunch, so he’s not busy, come on” Aiba told him, and they went quickly to the room outside the studio. Matsu raised an eyebrow and then smirked lightly
“Is something wrong?”
“N-No… Um… Maybe… M-my fri-end yesterday…” Nino stopped when he saw Matsu stiffen slightly, he really wanted to run away but Ohno choose that moment to ring again, the ring tone cutting through the air “Um… Can he come to visit?”
“Kazu… You should answer it and tell him yes” Matsu sighed “Whenever he wants” Nino quickly told Ohno the message while Matsu motioned for Aiba and Sakurai to leave. When Nino had finished he gripped his hand and tugged him down on to his knee “When is he coming?”
“To-Tomorrow…” He answered blushing hotly as he thought about what he had been doing his bedroom, Matsu sucked his neck and Nino shivered he was still sensitive from his imaginings and he really wanted the taller guys hands on him.
“Hmm… Kaz-u…” Matsu moaned and Nino realised he had been humping against him, “Kazu… Who are you thinking about?” Nino frowned and turned to look at him, Matsu gave an almost sad smile kissing his nose and tapping his leg getting him to stand up “I have some work to do tonight, so you’ll be sleeping in your own room…”
“Ok-Kay” Nino said slowly, wondering what he had done wrong, Matsu didn’t give him any clue and motioned for him to leave. Nino chewed his lip wanting to say something, but then left. Matsu watched him leave, wondering why he had said that, Nino wasn’t here by choice, he had been bought, when he had first wanted to buy him Sakurai and Aiba had told him that it wasn’t a good idea but he had insisted. At the time he had believed that as long as he could have him it didn’t matter what Nino felt, now he knew why they had been so against it, the minute he had seen the smaller guy in the studio he had wanted to see those eyes smiling. He suspected that Ohno had seen Nino smile, but two years ago he would have been about 15, he couldn’t forget what Nino had said last night though. He suddenly felt guilty and petty for being jealous of an old friend. He worked for the rest of the day and only went to bed when he knew Nino was in his room. Nino always seemed surprised that he knew when he was having a bad dream but the truth was he had cameras instilled into his room. They had been there before Nino had moved in, it was just a matter of switching them back on. He almost hated himself for using them but when Nino had told him that he had bad dreams every night he couldn’t not put them on when they weren’t sharing a room. He switched his laptop on, the video flickered into life and he saw Nino on the bed, the younger guy had already changed and was rubbing his injured arm staring at the ruined photo he had given him. Matsu let out a sigh and ran a finger over the Nino’s face before deciding he was strange and getting ready for bed. Nino tossed and turned for a while, staring at his wrist band hoping he was scared about tomorrow and seeing Ohno again, eventually he fell to sleep but his dreams felt even stranger than ever, he was lost in a maze trying to find his way out, every turn just led him deeper in he wanted to find Matsu he knew that Matsu would be able to get him out, but whenever he tried to say his name nothing came out. In the end he just crouched down and hugged himself tightly. Then from no-where he heard Matsu shouting for him, he followed the sound of the voice and his eyes opened.
“Kazu? Are you okay?” Matsu asked, Nino nodded and hugged him tightly breathing in his scent, “I’m here, I’m right here” Nino’s heart returned to normal as Matsu stroked his hair. Matsu had been surprised when he had heard Nino calling for him but he had to admit he’d been happy about it, but he felt guilty for punishing Nino for his own jealousy, he got into bed beside him and they both fell to sleep their hands entwined. The next morning Ohno was standing looking up at the house he rechecked the address and then the name on the brass plague ‘Matsumoto’ before pressing the button
“Yes?” Came a deep voice causing him to jump
“I-I’m here to see Nino-“
“Name?”
“Ohno”
“Come in” The voice said and then there was a loud beep as the gate swung open, Ohno walked slowly up the drive wondering how Nino had come to live here. When he reached the front door it swung open and a tall friendly looking guy came out
“You’re Nino-chan’s friend, Ohno Satoshi, ne?” He grinned “I’m Aiba Masaki; I’m Nino-chan’s servant and friend”
“S-Servant?” Ohno spluttered his eyes wide
“Yep, come on he’s this way…”
“Aiba-san…” He said as he followed him down what seemed to be an impossibly long corridor “Is Nino happy here?”
“I think so” Aiba nodded enthusiastically “At least he’s a lot happier now than when he first came”
“How did he end up here?”
“He’s Jun-chan’s lover” The taller guy shrugged “He came to live here; it’s not my place to ask…”
“But I thought you were his friend…”
“I am, when he came here... Nino-chan, He was in bad shape, he doesn’t talk about it and I don’t ask” he said without turning to look at him, he led him into Nino’s sitting room, Nino was nervously pacing backwards and forwards, he had tried sitting but nerves just curled in his heart. Ohno gave a friendly smile, he hated the idea of Nino being nervous around him, he couldn’t help but think that Matsu was beating his old friend there was no way the Nino he remembered would be as timid or nervous as this he thought, but there was something else that didn’t add up, Riko and her mum had been convinced that Nino was dead, but neither had showed happiness or relief yesterday when he had called round to see them, if he had to say, all both women had showed was small amounts of fear. He pushed it away deciding to focus on the happiness that Nino really was alive and it wasn’t just one of his dreams. Matsu was in his studio, he wasn’t really paying attention to the pictures he was flipping through just trying to stay as far away from Nino and his guest as possible, he didn’t want to be jealous, he was glad that Nino had a happy part of his past back but it really was taking all his effort not to go and wrap himself all over his Nino, more so when he remembered the night in the hotel, Nino still didn’t remember it and somehow that made him feel worse, like he knew a secret that even Nino wasn’t aware off. He gave an almost growl and decided to develop the photo’s he’d taken with Nino. “Shit” He swore when he realised he couldn’t remember which roll of film was his or Nino’s. He took a gamble and went into his darkroom. He worked quickly and then realised that this wasn’t his roll of film, the photos were mostly of him, he frowned as he watched them develop, of all things Nino could have taken a picture of he taken nearly a whole roll of film of photo’s him. The expressions in the pictures were ones he himself had never knew he had, Nino had said that the emotions of the photographer showed in the photos, he was completely sure if that was true but if it was then maybe there was some hope for him, after all he thought with an almost happy grin, it was him that Nino had shouted for last night, he frowned as there was a knock on the door, he wiped his hands on a towel,
“Sir, I’m sorry to disturb you” Sakurai said as he came out into the studio “Your father-in-law wishes to see you…”
A/N: I hate RL, had a radiator moved, the living room was flooded and now a wall has to be re-plastered :( but focusing on the good, there’s only three weeks till my holiday, and my new niece Lilly-Anne, will be born any day now, I’ll be happy when I’m not waiting for a phone call and can have more sleep and less writing :D Yay. Hope you enjoy ^.^

Happy belated birthday to Keiko_Artemis
Nino wanted to go towards the man but Matsu grabbed his hand again holding him tightly
“Nino… But you’re dead” The sleepy guy said moving forwards slowly, looking very much like he was seeing a ghost, tears were in his eyes and Nino tried to process what he had said, he was dully aware that Matsu was asking him questions but he couldn’t take his eyes away from the fisherman, Ohno Satoshi he had been Rikos boyfriend two years ago, he had always been fond of him. He had always had time for him when his mother and sister hadn’t, unable to stand the tears in his eyes Nino pulled his hand free again and hugged him tightly. Ohno was still mumbling about him being ‘dead’
“Kazu, who is this?”
“M-My sister’s boyfriend” Nino answered pulling away quickly, hanging his head when he saw the almost hard glint in Matsu’s eyes
“Ex-boyfriend” Ohno corrected softly not taking his eyes from Nino for a minute before turning to face Matsu giving him a polite bow “Ohno Satoshi”
“Matsumoto Jun”
“Nino, please tell me what’s going on” Ohno said looking back at Nino again, Nino didn’t know what to say his mouth had gone dry, his sister and mother had told people that he was dead, is that how they had gotten to sleep every night? By pretending that he really was dead, his head was spinning and he felt sick. He supposed saying that he was dead was easier for them than saying ‘I sold him into slavery to pay for my husband’s gambling debts’
“I-I ran away” He whispered his voice trembling, Ohno’s eyes narrowed
“You ran away? You let people think you were dead for two years, why? You could sometimes be a bit of a brat, Nino but I never thought you would be so selfish…” Nino flinched as the words washed over him, he felt Matsu move to say something but he reached out and grabbed his arm, silently pleading with him. The taller guy clicked his tongue but otherwise stayed silent Ohno turned back to him obviously remembering their linked fingers “So you ran away to be with him?”
“If we’re going to talk about this I suggest somewhere more private” Matsu said aware that they were attracting a lot of looks from the other fishermen on the bank. Ohno nodded gathering his things, Nino looked at his feet unable to stand Matsu’s raised eyebrow glare when Ohno had re-joined them they walked in an almost heavy silence to an inn. Matsu asked for a private room and although Ohno gave Nino a surprised look the younger said nothing, when they sat Nino sat as close to Matsu as possible without actually sitting on his lap. Ohno it seemed had calmed down and there wasn’t any trace of anger in his voice when he said
“Please, Nino, tell me what’s going on… What happened to your arm?” seeing the bandage for the first time
“Ac-Accident” Nino answered his voice was so small and faint, Matsu felt him tremble very slowly he reached down and very lightly stroked his hand with his fingers trying to reassure him. He wanted to stay but he thought that maybe they would both feel easier without him being there
“Kazu, I’m going to the bathroom, answer your friends questions, okay?” He said in a calm steady voice but it was obviously an order, Nino looked at him and nodded “Good boy” Matsu smiled ruffling his hair before leaving the room. There was an uncomfortable heavy silence in the air for a while and Nino fidgeted playing with a loose part of his bandage
“What really happened?” Ohno asked motioning to his arm,
“It wasn’t Matsu” Nino answered realising that was what the older guy must be thinking
“Nino, why won’t you tell me what’s going on, is it because of that guy?” Nino didn’t speak, looking down at the table, he really had liked Ohno back then, and seeing the hurt and disappointment in his eyes was more painful than any physical blow but he couldn’t bring himself to tell him the truth. Riko had complained once that Ohno was unfeeling an never thought about anyone else, Nino knew that wasn’t true, Ohno probably thought more about other people than he did himself. He remembered whenever he had gotten a pay check he had always treated Nino to a meal or a new game, Ohno had always been his shelter, he could only imagine how much it had hurt him to hear of his ‘death’ during his time with the fat man, he had almost forgotten all about Ohno. Ohno who was so sweet and nice, he hadn’t wanted to drag in to that black room, over time when he did think about him, he thought that maybe he had imagined him, that nobody could have really been that nice. “Nino you vanish for two years, even your mum and sister think you’re dead then you turn back up, pale and acting nothing like yourself wrapped in a bandage with someone that treats you like you’re a pet, does your mum and Riko even know you’re alive?”
“I-I sa-w Riko-nee,” Nino nodded
“But you haven’t seen your mum? Come on, Nino tell me something…”
“I, wa-nted to be… With Ma-tsu’ so I ran awa-y” Nino said looking at the table
“Is he beating you?”
“N-No, he’s never hit me” Nino said quickly it was the truth Matsu had never hit him, and even with the way he had been acting before Matsu hadn’t even looked like he would hit him even though he was his master. Ohno let out a loud sigh, folding his arms across his chest, Nino flinched looking back at the table
“Nino-chan, please explain… Tell me something I can believe… If you had gone to be with that guy you’d have only been 15, so unless he’s a paedophile there’s something you’re not telling me… I know things were tough on you but if you were really having problems you know you could have told me…”
“I-I’m sorry…” Nino whispered and Ohno let out a long sigh coming from behind the table, Nino felt tears stinging in his eyes as he looked at him “I’m really sorry Sato-nii” Ohno moved swiftly around the table and hugged him tightly being careful of his arm.
“I’m not really mad, Nino, I’m happy you’re alive, I just can’t believe it” he said, Nino sagged against him breathing in that warm familiar scent he pulled away quickly as the door opened and Matsu came back in. He raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything and Nino hurried to his side, Ohno made a confused face, he knew Nino was in something he couldn’t get out off. He didn’t like the way Nino was acting around the taller guy and there was the whole thing about his arm, he didn’t believe it was an ‘accident’. Matsu rubbed Nino’s back soothingly
“Kazu, do you want a drink?”
“Um… Th-ank-you” He nodded
“Is Pepsi okay?” Matsu asked gently and again Nino nodded, he then looked at Ohno “Would you like something?”
“Green tea” Ohno answered, Matsu pulled the cord for a member of staff, who bustled in shortly after. Matsu ordered the drinks and then very calmly wrote down their address
“You should come and visit” He said, Nino looked at him but didn’t say anything Ohno took the paper his eyebrows almost vanishing into his hair line.
“You live here?” He asked looking at Nino, who nodded quickly as the waiter brought in their drinks. Nino watched his old friend he asking himself why Ohno and Riko had broken up. He had always wondered what Ohno had seen in his sister, they were completely different people, Riko was out going with a million and a half friends, where Ohno preferred his own company and Nino’s when he had forced himself on him. He could remember Riko complaining when they had been going to the cinema and Ohno had insisted that Nino come along too. It had been a horror film and he had jumped whenever the creepy music had started, after the third time Ohno had gripped his hand tightly and held it for the rest of the film. Nino blinked coming back to the present when he felt Matsu touch his arm
“Don’t you like it?” He asked motioning to the drink, Nino took a drink quickly the ice cubes had already started to melt giving it an almost flat taste but it helped to sooth his mouth that had felt painfully dry. “Are you hungry?”
“N-Not yet” Nino answered shaking his head quickly. “Sato-nii... Do… Do you still work in the bakery?”
“Yeah, I’m there full time now… What about you? You should be still in school right?” Ohno said almost pointedly flashing a glance at Matsu, Nino froze not knowing what to answer or even how to answer,
“I don’t… Go to… School…” He admitted slowly but then thought about his experiments with Aiba, “I do some science though…”
“And you, Matsumoto-san?”
“I run my family’s business” Matsu told him smoothly, but then again Nino thought, it wasn’t a lie after all. They fell into another silence and finished their drinks, Ohno looked at his watch and gave a small groan
“I have to get back for my shift this afternoon… Nino-chan, do you still remember my number?” He asked, Nino shook his head and Ohno pulled out his phone, “Do you have a mobile?” Nino looked at Matsu he had the one that had been given to him but as Aiba had said only three people knew the number he wasn’t sure if Matsu would be okay with someone else having it. Matsu just gave a small nod and Nino pulled out the phone, it was the latest android one that seemed to have more features and gadgets than needed for a phone. One that simply dialled out and received calls would work just as well, Nino thought as he tried to figure out how to store a number and retrieve his own. It took some time but he managed it in the end, “I’ll ring you soon okay? Don’t vanish on me again Nino, please”
“I-I won’t, Sato-nii” Nino promised quickly, feeling guilty again. Ohno gave a polite bow to Matsu and pulled Nino into a tight hug, which felt like it wouldn’t end, Nino suspected that the older guy was crying again. He rubbed his back and very reluctantly Ohno pulled away staring at him as if trying to memorise his face before leaving.
“Are you okay?” Matsu asked as the door closed, Nino nodded very slowly
“I… Didn’t th-ink I’d se-e Sato-nii again…” He whispered, Matsu studied his face, he had the feeling that Nino wanted to run and hide, he hadn’t really wanted to go out that morning but Matsu hadn’t wanted him to be able to sit around thinking about what had happened with Sakamoto. When Aiba had told him what he had done he really had wanted to kill him but just thinking about Nino’s fearful face had stopped him pulling the trigger. Right now Nino looked as if the weight of the world was on his shoulders, he was still looking at the number Ohno had given him, and Matsu wanted to know who he was to Nino unable to believe the ‘sister’s boyfriend’ from the way they had looked at each other there was more to it than that. He wanted to know so much but more than anything right now he wanted to be able lift the dark shadows that had formed once again in his eyes.
“Come on” he said patting Nino’s shoulder, he paid for their drinks and then started walking again on the path where they had met Ohno. It didn’t take long to reach the clearing and Nino gave a small excited gasp as he looked around
“This is where that picture was taken” He said and Matsu smiled he really wanted to take a photo of the happy expression on his face but Nino still hadn’t given him permission so he couldn’t. The clearing was almost exactly the same as it was in the photo, Matsu took off one of his cameras
“Yeah, I saw that your photo was scratched…Here take one”
“Huh… I-I can’t…” Nino said holding up his bandaged hand
“Try, it’s not that hard, you can use it one handed all you do is point and click” Matsu smiled, Nino looked at the camera shaking his head
“There’s more to it than that, all your pictures… You can…Feel the emotions from them” he said hoping that he was making sense. Matsu gave a pleased smile but pushed the camera into his hand, Nino gripped it tightly with his good hand afraid that it would fall
“You can do it, Kazu” Matsu said softly taking up another camera and then walking off away from him, Nino watched him for a bit, he didn’t know what to photograph there was no way he would be able to take beautiful pictures like Matsu, the taller guy had already started taking photos and Nino was amazed at serious his expression had become. There didn’t seem to be any pattern to what he took photos of and then he remembered what he had been told in the studio. ‘You should only take pictures of what you want to’ with that thought in his mind he started taking pictures. He wasn’t sure how many he should take and what seemed like all too soon the camera made a funny noise telling him he was out of film. Matsu came back to him
“I-I d-don’t know…if they’re any good…”
“We’ll see when we develop them” The taller guy smiled stroking his cheek, “Are you feeling tired?”
“N-No… Bu-t my arm hurts” He admitted, Matsu kissed him lightly slowly on the mouth and Nino blushed a hot red aware that though it was pretty quiet here there were still a few people doted around. One man was shielding his son’s eyes while muttering ‘disgusting’ rather loudly, Matsu turned putting an arm around Nino’s shoulders and giving him an icy glare.
“Do you have a problem?” he hissed and the man hurried his son away, they went for a meal at restaurant that was by the sea front, Nino didn’t really care for sea food but it was worth eating it to see the light happy look on Matsu’s face while it ate clams. After eating Nino took some painkillers for his arm and they went for a walk along the sea front. Nino was surprised but happy that Matsu hadn’t asked about Ohno, he still couldn’t work out his own mind or settle his own feelings about meeting the older guy again. The sky was almost glowing with a fierce red when they started to head back to the car, they didn’t head back to Tokyo though instead Matsu drove them to a hotel that over looked the ocean. They bathed together, with Matsu making sure that his arm didn’t get wet, while he nuzzled and kissed his neck while his hand moved over his body “Touching you feeling amazing Kazu” He whispered and Nino blushed at the thought that popped into his head ‘Being touched by you feels better’ after they had gotten out of the bath they barely had time to dry before Matsu was pushing him down onto the be that smelt faintly of rose petals. Nino’s skin was almost aching to be touched by Matsu and Matsu was happy to comply, he remembered the map of Nino’s body so easily he knew which points would make him shiver, cry and tremble and Matsu attacked them all until Nino was a panting mess in the middle of the bed, Matsu watched his face when he carefully pushed his fingers inside The expression on Nino’s face nearly made him come without being touched, he prepared him quickly not wanting to be outside that warmth any longer. When Matsu pushed into him, Nino gave a small whimper, it didn’t hurt as much as it had yesterday, but with each thrust that over whelming heat built up he heard himself beg for the taller guy to move ‘harder’ and ‘faster’ and when Matsu did so, he fell into being only able to gasp his name. They spilled over together, giving loud groans of pleasure. Neither moved for a while basking on the wonderful afterglow that had filled their bodies
“You’re dema-nding… when it comes to… sex ne?” Matsu panted in his ear, and Nino’s heart raced and his eyes widened
“I’m… So-rry…” He stammered and Matsu kissed him lazily
“Don’t be… in cases like this… you can be… as demanding as you want…” He said his breathing becoming regular again as he pulled out and rolled over. He pulled Nino so they were both on their sides facing each other
“Who was that guy?” he asked
“He was Nee-chan’s boyfriend two years ago… He was always nice to me” Nino answered almost purring as Matsu’s fingers ran up and down his side, “We never had much money but Sato-nii, when he got paid he would buy me games and take me out to get hamburgers he even took me fishing until I got sea sick”
“Sounds like he was more in love with you than he was your sister”
“Sato-nii, wasn’t like that!” Nino snapped with more force than Matsu had heard before, he stared at Nino who quickly hung his head “S-sorry… I never found easy to make friends, Sato-nii he was always there for me…”
“Why did you tell him you ran away? Why not tell him the truth?”
“I didn’t want him to know…” Nino answered shuffling closer to him so that Matsu couldn’t see his face, Matsu sighed hugging him tightly
“You were trying to defend your mum and sister?”
“Is that wrong?”
“No… But sometimes, Kazu some people they don’t deserve it…” Matsu told him, Nino made no sign if he heard him and a few moments later Nino had fallen to sleep.
*”You think anybody cares that you’re here?” The fat man asked as the cane sliced into his skin, “You’ve been here for eight months do you think anyone would miss you?” Nino didn’t answer keeping his eyes on the wall, a face rose up in his mind but he tried to force it away. That person didn’t belong in here. He told himself as he felt the cane again and again on his back. The image refused to stay away, ‘Sato-nii’ he thought seeing that sleepy smiling face, tears that he had kept locked away rose up in his eyes and spilled over, racing hotly down his cheeks, “Do you? Do you think anybody cares about you?” The fat man asked again
“Sa-Sato-nii” He said and then screamed “Sato-nii…”
Matsu woke as he heard Nino moaning in his sleep he switched the light on his heart aching as he heard “Sato-nii” come from Nino’s lip’s, Nino’s eyes opened but Matsu knew he wasn’t fully awake when he whispered “Sato-nii?” while looking at him
“I’m here Nino-chan” He said softly doing his best to impersonate the guy from earlier, it seemed to work when Nino smiled brightly and hugged him burying his face against his shoulder
“I missed Sato-nii, so much”
“M-Me too, Nino-chan” Matsu told him while stroking his face “You should go back to sleep ne?”
“Love… I love Sato-nii”
“I love you too, Kazu” He whispered falling back into his own voice, Nino smiled falling back into a deep sleep. Matsu watched him for a while running his fingers over his face, before switching out the light again. The next morning Nino didn’t remember either the dream or his talk with ‘Sato-nii’ they had breakfast in the hotel, ignoring the looks they were getting, before driving back to Tokyo. Although Nino didn’t remember he suspected that he had done something to upset Matsu, because even though Matsu didn’t say anything he just kept his eyes on the road and chewed his lip thoughtfully. When they got back to the house he vanished to his studio, Aiba beamed at him when he saw him and Nino saw that there were bright red love bites doted all over his neck and from the gap in his shirt he could see that they followed onto his chest.
“Sho-chan acts all stuck up but when he’s going at it you can’t stop him” Aiba giggled noticing his gaze “Not that I ever put up much of a fight” Nino didn’t know what to say and Aiba hit him lightly on the back “So what did you do yesterday?” Nino told him about his day at the coast not leaving anything out
“But you were gone all night”
“We… Went to a hotel” Nino told him, Aiba let out a howl of laughter when he saw Nino’s cheeks go a hot tomato red.
“So this guy, Ohno… What was he to you really?”
“What do you mean?”
“Was he just a friend or did you dream about fucking him?”
“He was my sister’s boyfriend, I thought he was weird at first, but… He always seemed to know when I was lonely, he let me be a brat to him and just smiled at me… He was my only friend…”
“Sounds like he was a good guy, ne”
“He is” Nino answered with a smile. Aiba was about to say something else when a green light flashed on his arm band
“Sho-chan, wants me” He said with a bright smile, after Aiba had gone Nino thought about what Aiba had said. He had never imagined doing anything like that with Ohno but then again he hadn’t thought about doing that with any guy. He closed his eyes trying to picture Ohno kissing and touching him like Matsu did, he couldn’t do it, he could only see Matsu’s eyes as he lay over him, they shone brightly in his mind, Nino moaned loudly and he realised he had been touching himself. Blushing he went to the bathroom to clean up just as his phone rang with an unfamiliar ringtone, looking at it, it was an unknown number, he knew it would be Ohno but his hand trembled as he answered it
“H-Hai, Mos-hi, Mosh?”
“Nino-chan?”
“Sato-nii?”
“Yeah… Sorry I forgot to recharge my phone so I’m using Nee-chan’s, Nino… I’ve been trying to make sense of everything all night but I can’t… Would it be okay to visit you?”
“I-I… Um… I-I’d ha-ve to ask Ma-Matsu…” Nino answered
“Well could you ask him?”
“Um… I-I’ll…Ring you back” He said hanging up quickly, Nino didn’t know what else to say, Matsu hadn’t called for him and he had been acting strangely since that morning so he didn’t want to disturb him, biting his lip he pressed Aibas name on the panel beside the bed. Aiba came into the room smiling happily
“Is everything okay?”
“I-I need to talk to Ma-tsu” He said “Um… I…”
“He’s having lunch, so he’s not busy, come on” Aiba told him, and they went quickly to the room outside the studio. Matsu raised an eyebrow and then smirked lightly
“Is something wrong?”
“N-No… Um… Maybe… M-my fri-end yesterday…” Nino stopped when he saw Matsu stiffen slightly, he really wanted to run away but Ohno choose that moment to ring again, the ring tone cutting through the air “Um… Can he come to visit?”
“Kazu… You should answer it and tell him yes” Matsu sighed “Whenever he wants” Nino quickly told Ohno the message while Matsu motioned for Aiba and Sakurai to leave. When Nino had finished he gripped his hand and tugged him down on to his knee “When is he coming?”
“To-Tomorrow…” He answered blushing hotly as he thought about what he had been doing his bedroom, Matsu sucked his neck and Nino shivered he was still sensitive from his imaginings and he really wanted the taller guys hands on him.
“Hmm… Kaz-u…” Matsu moaned and Nino realised he had been humping against him, “Kazu… Who are you thinking about?” Nino frowned and turned to look at him, Matsu gave an almost sad smile kissing his nose and tapping his leg getting him to stand up “I have some work to do tonight, so you’ll be sleeping in your own room…”
“Ok-Kay” Nino said slowly, wondering what he had done wrong, Matsu didn’t give him any clue and motioned for him to leave. Nino chewed his lip wanting to say something, but then left. Matsu watched him leave, wondering why he had said that, Nino wasn’t here by choice, he had been bought, when he had first wanted to buy him Sakurai and Aiba had told him that it wasn’t a good idea but he had insisted. At the time he had believed that as long as he could have him it didn’t matter what Nino felt, now he knew why they had been so against it, the minute he had seen the smaller guy in the studio he had wanted to see those eyes smiling. He suspected that Ohno had seen Nino smile, but two years ago he would have been about 15, he couldn’t forget what Nino had said last night though. He suddenly felt guilty and petty for being jealous of an old friend. He worked for the rest of the day and only went to bed when he knew Nino was in his room. Nino always seemed surprised that he knew when he was having a bad dream but the truth was he had cameras instilled into his room. They had been there before Nino had moved in, it was just a matter of switching them back on. He almost hated himself for using them but when Nino had told him that he had bad dreams every night he couldn’t not put them on when they weren’t sharing a room. He switched his laptop on, the video flickered into life and he saw Nino on the bed, the younger guy had already changed and was rubbing his injured arm staring at the ruined photo he had given him. Matsu let out a sigh and ran a finger over the Nino’s face before deciding he was strange and getting ready for bed. Nino tossed and turned for a while, staring at his wrist band hoping he was scared about tomorrow and seeing Ohno again, eventually he fell to sleep but his dreams felt even stranger than ever, he was lost in a maze trying to find his way out, every turn just led him deeper in he wanted to find Matsu he knew that Matsu would be able to get him out, but whenever he tried to say his name nothing came out. In the end he just crouched down and hugged himself tightly. Then from no-where he heard Matsu shouting for him, he followed the sound of the voice and his eyes opened.
“Kazu? Are you okay?” Matsu asked, Nino nodded and hugged him tightly breathing in his scent, “I’m here, I’m right here” Nino’s heart returned to normal as Matsu stroked his hair. Matsu had been surprised when he had heard Nino calling for him but he had to admit he’d been happy about it, but he felt guilty for punishing Nino for his own jealousy, he got into bed beside him and they both fell to sleep their hands entwined. The next morning Ohno was standing looking up at the house he rechecked the address and then the name on the brass plague ‘Matsumoto’ before pressing the button
“Yes?” Came a deep voice causing him to jump
“I-I’m here to see Nino-“
“Name?”
“Ohno”
“Come in” The voice said and then there was a loud beep as the gate swung open, Ohno walked slowly up the drive wondering how Nino had come to live here. When he reached the front door it swung open and a tall friendly looking guy came out
“You’re Nino-chan’s friend, Ohno Satoshi, ne?” He grinned “I’m Aiba Masaki; I’m Nino-chan’s servant and friend”
“S-Servant?” Ohno spluttered his eyes wide
“Yep, come on he’s this way…”
“Aiba-san…” He said as he followed him down what seemed to be an impossibly long corridor “Is Nino happy here?”
“I think so” Aiba nodded enthusiastically “At least he’s a lot happier now than when he first came”
“How did he end up here?”
“He’s Jun-chan’s lover” The taller guy shrugged “He came to live here; it’s not my place to ask…”
“But I thought you were his friend…”
“I am, when he came here... Nino-chan, He was in bad shape, he doesn’t talk about it and I don’t ask” he said without turning to look at him, he led him into Nino’s sitting room, Nino was nervously pacing backwards and forwards, he had tried sitting but nerves just curled in his heart. Ohno gave a friendly smile, he hated the idea of Nino being nervous around him, he couldn’t help but think that Matsu was beating his old friend there was no way the Nino he remembered would be as timid or nervous as this he thought, but there was something else that didn’t add up, Riko and her mum had been convinced that Nino was dead, but neither had showed happiness or relief yesterday when he had called round to see them, if he had to say, all both women had showed was small amounts of fear. He pushed it away deciding to focus on the happiness that Nino really was alive and it wasn’t just one of his dreams. Matsu was in his studio, he wasn’t really paying attention to the pictures he was flipping through just trying to stay as far away from Nino and his guest as possible, he didn’t want to be jealous, he was glad that Nino had a happy part of his past back but it really was taking all his effort not to go and wrap himself all over his Nino, more so when he remembered the night in the hotel, Nino still didn’t remember it and somehow that made him feel worse, like he knew a secret that even Nino wasn’t aware off. He gave an almost growl and decided to develop the photo’s he’d taken with Nino. “Shit” He swore when he realised he couldn’t remember which roll of film was his or Nino’s. He took a gamble and went into his darkroom. He worked quickly and then realised that this wasn’t his roll of film, the photos were mostly of him, he frowned as he watched them develop, of all things Nino could have taken a picture of he taken nearly a whole roll of film of photo’s him. The expressions in the pictures were ones he himself had never knew he had, Nino had said that the emotions of the photographer showed in the photos, he was completely sure if that was true but if it was then maybe there was some hope for him, after all he thought with an almost happy grin, it was him that Nino had shouted for last night, he frowned as there was a knock on the door, he wiped his hands on a towel,
“Sir, I’m sorry to disturb you” Sakurai said as he came out into the studio “Your father-in-law wishes to see you…”
A/N: I hate RL, had a radiator moved, the living room was flooded and now a wall has to be re-plastered :( but focusing on the good, there’s only three weeks till my holiday, and my new niece Lilly-Anne, will be born any day now, I’ll be happy when I’m not waiting for a phone call and can have more sleep and less writing :D Yay. Hope you enjoy ^.^
