Work Text:
Ever since Gentaro wrote one of his novels and had the experience of playing soccer, as well as being part of a band, he wondered: if the world could collide between these different things, what would it be like if the world of the person who showed him them also collided? Jiro and Jyushi helped Gentaro a lot to understand his hobbies and interests, and he couldn't stop thinking about the interaction between the two teenagers.
Not only on this journey, but also on other past ones, noticing the conversations and mannerisms of one another, always in the middle of them... "Unintentionally," he would say, but it's certainly intentional. Could something or someone have wanted Gentaro to witness this young love that is slowly blossoming?
Then he thought, "If I'm going to be a witness, I need to write like a witness!"
Gentaro has read several teen romances; they tend to be direct and don't think about the consequences of their actions. And that's why things end up going wrong or doing something that almost breaks the bond between the two, the most famous books of this type... He doesn't like them very much, to be quite honest.
But this romance is different, it's about teenagers who, even though different, have the same goals. To protect their family, to do what they like, to be free!!! He can imagine scenes, then he puts them into action.
Happy Journey.
"A starry night, as the train departs. Jiro is going to Nagoya to see his beloved Jyushi, who begged him for this visit. A weekend, all with his boyfriend, was everything! Everything Jyushi Aimono could ask for on his knees, looking at the heavens, the stars, which mark him as much as the freckles on Jiro Yamada's face, who so captivated him. Oh heavens! Why is it taking so long to reach this destination?! The two wonder, even from afar, the anxious minds of adolescence disturb them, imagining how agonizing it will be to wait for the tight hug they anxiously await every day.— This is evil! — Jyushi exclaims, his longing in his chest tightens, along with his anxiety, yearning more and more for his love.
His cell phone exclaims, a ringtone he dedicated only to one person, who could this lucky person be?! We all know the answer!
— Darling! I'm coming." —
Jyushi quickly moves away from the window, butterflies dancing in his chest. He stares at the tall, alternative man in the mirror, fixing his long black hair with the yellow highlights that define him and make him who he is. He grabs his key, opens the door, and leaves his residence, waiting like fireworks counting down to finally explode! Teenage love is truly something innocent.
His face is illuminated by a light, that of a car, and a more than recognizable silhouette: his beloved has arrived! Jiro happily waves his cap, the wind ruffling his black hair; he needs to be careful not to fall out the window! Jyushi watches him excitedly, waving his arms, when finally the car stops and Jiro aggressively opens the car door and runs to Jyushi, who runs towards him too.
Soon, they collide in a warm embrace, spinning together, laughing, and remembering what it feels like to be the other's beloved, the butterflies in their stomachs fluttering. They merge, the feeling that each one feels is the same, longing. With their bodies pressed together, they share a romantic kiss, the fireworks are finally launched! Love has been reunited."
"Hm... More details are needed." Gentaro was not satisfied with his story.
Days passed after he wrote it, he wants to finish it, but he doesn't know how. Ramuda notices this; Gentaro kept biting his pen while looking at the draft paper.
"Gentaro! Stop biting my pen!" Ramuda exclaims, making Gentaro wake from his daydreaming, taking the pen from his mouth and wiping it on his clothes. He stands up, handing the pen to Ramuda and bowing.
"My apologies, Ramuda... It wasn't intentional." Ramuda doesn't even pay attention to Gentaro's apology, picking up the draft and reading it. Gentaro seems used to this action of Ramuda's, looking at him, waiting for some response.
"Are they from the Nagoya and Ikebukuro divisions?" Ramuda asks. Gentaro nods. Ramuda continues reading, finally reaching the end. "Are they a couple?" Gentaro shakes his head. "Unfortunately not, but I wrote as if they were. You know the feeling of seeing two people who are a great couple but they don't know it? That's exactly what I see in them."
Ramuda laughs softly. He doesn't know them very well, but he imagined a scene with Jiro giving Jyushi a side hug while he cries. "It would be really funny to see them together, they seem to be the opposite of each other! Clearly, it's a relationship of clashing customs, opinions, and even tastes!" Gentaro hears this and immediately has an idea.
"What if I took them on a secret date?" Ramuda's eyes widen in confusion. "Hey Gentaro! How are you going to do that? They live very far from each other, not only them, but from us too!" Gentaro realizes that it will be difficult, but if the three of them have already managed to do things together, uniting them won't be impossible, but he dismisses the idea.
"I need to experience the situation to be able to write scenarios, emotions, and dialogues. I need to see their dialogues... Even though I've already seen them, I believe I can get more out of this experience." Ramuda puts his lollipop in his mouth while listening to Gentaro talking, also thinking along with him, until he remembers something he heard recently.
"Samatoki told me that his colleague, Jyuto, had to work part-time at a restaurant as a waiter, along with Jyushi, because of a misunderstanding... And that Jiro cooked at that restaurant!"
Gentaro remembers that he has Jyuto's number. He managed to ask Rio for the number, who innocently gave it to him, and since then, Gentaro has been sending nonsensical messages to Jyuto, who only doesn't block him because Rio would be very sad.
He needs more details.
He picks up his cell phone, opening Jyuto's conversation. Ramuda chuckled, Jyuto's contact was saved as "Mr. Police Officer Rabbit PyonPyon Ꮚ˘ ꈊ ˘ Ꮚ", it's very funny how Gentaro was also completely ignored by the police officer. This was actually much funnier with the religious good morning GIFs.
"Hey friend! I heard you worked with Jyushi Aimono and Jiro Yamada. Can you explain to me how this work went? And what is their relationship like? It's for something important."
"Do you think he'll answer you?" Ramuda replies, taking the lollipop out of his mouth and grabbing Gentaro's arm, who in turn, strokes the smaller boy's head. "Honestly... No. But I need at least some detail..."
Gentaro is surprised by Jyuto's response.
"You're lucky I want to vent about it. But please don't call me a friend.
It was very confusing, one minute I was facing bullies and the next I was trying to keep a smile on my face while serving customers. Jiro even complained to me that I was too cold and seemed like I wanted to pick a fight with the customers... So much so that he compared me to Jyushi, calling him empathetic and admiring him... I still can't believe I got a scolding from a teenager.
Before you ask me how he ended up admiring Jyushi... He was so focused on him that he didn't even notice the orders piling up, sometimes I noticed him smiling when he saw Jyushi, he even helped him put on his waiter's uniform, helping with the tie and apron, Jyushi also helped him, tying his hair and putting what he asked for on the food... Anyway, I'm tired of talking to you. Bye."
Gentaro loved this text. He realized how close the two were, having so many ideas, and Ramuda noticed his happiness because he was smiling.
"So, what will you do?"
"A good piece of writing." Gentaro picks up his paper and begins to write another part of his story.
"The two enter Jyushi's house. Jiro is always emotional, taking in every corner of the place, always impressed that everything has a piece of Jyushi in it. He wanted to be that piece too. How romantic would he have to be to be part of the visual kei's heart? Well, he already is.
There's a picture in the corner of that room that shows the great love of Jyushi's life! It's a photo of the two of them together, where Jiro kisses Jyushi's cheek, and ironically, it's one of the most colorful and bright pictures in the place. Jiro notices his own expression in it, and his cheeks tickle. He lowers his cap to hide his blush, but his beloved soon notices.
—My dear? What's happening?—Jyushi lifts Jiro's head, making him look directly at the taller man. —I ended up noticing the picture of the two of us. I was so happy I couldn't contain myself.—Jyushi turns to the picture, smiling as he remembers the feeling of the wind blowing through his hair while his heart pounded." Seeing his beloved every moment.
After analyzing that beautiful landscape in the painting for so long, the two decide to cook together. Jyushi Aimono saw a spectacular recipe for omelets with spicy chicken, and he was so eager to eat that he already prepared the chicken! Jiro then decided to shred it to help his boyfriend, but before that, Jyushi stopped him for a moment to show him something!
— Darling, the apron! Let me put it on you. — Jyushi then takes a red apron, putting it on his beloved... very shyly. Jiro, in turn, examines the apron, reading it upside down, not quite understanding what the word means.
— "Chfir never tesb"? — Jyushi laughs at the younger man's failed attempt to read the apron — It says "Best Chef Ever"! I really like your cooking. — Jiro then smiles, embarrassed by the alternative's sincerity, who also puts on his typical apron, older, but which always matches. They start cooking together, tying their hair back so nothing falls into the food, and because of the heat, it was very hot, eating outside wouldn't be as hot as the place they are now! But it's totally worth it, putting their love into every step they take for the romantic dinner! Finally finishing and putting everything on the table.
Oh my... They want something so romantic, but they're so covered in food... This is so romantic! They both grab cutlery to eat from the same plate, sitting side by side, they taste it, and it's delicious! They are very happy and satisfied for not doing anything wrong! But soon Jyushi speaks...
— I need a glass of water... — And Jiro lets out a laugh, but soon understands the reason... The chili burns her tongue."
"Ramuda, what did you think?... Ramuda?"
Ramuda ended up falling asleep on Gentaro's shoulder; he didn't realize how much time had passed while he was writing. Then, he got up, placed Ramuda on the sofa, grabbed his coat to cover him, and left the room.
Well... If you think he's happy with the story, he's not yet. He wants to write more, specify more, see their differences come together in one novel, but how will he do that without more information or vivid moments? He wants to go out with the two of them, have a kind of date and be their cupid, but he knows it's impossible at the moment. Until he sees someone more than recognizable.
Rosho was on a school trip in Shibuya, his class strolling around while he yelled to keep them close and not miss anyone. Gentaro is soon noticed when a fan sees him and asks for an autograph, drawing the teacher's attention.
"Waah! Gentaro! The very one!"
Gentaro laughs at the student's admiration, drawing the attention of more students who form a circle around him. Soon, Rosho arrives to break up the circle, yelling at them not to bother the writer.
"Professor, there's no need for that, I'll give everyone my attention... But first, I want to talk to you."
The students stare at the professor, who doesn't know the reason for the private conversation with Gentaro. He probably thinks it's a warning or threat that 'My team will win and yours won't,' so he prepares for a counterattack. Going to a corner, the writer pulls out his draft of the story he's working on, handing it to Rosho.
"Please read very carefully, I'm writing a romance story between Jiro and Jyushi, from the Ikebukuro and Nagoya divisions, and I believe you are one of the people who can best explain their relationship to me."
Rosho reads the story that Gentaro shows him, and is impressed by the details, and in his mind, he thinks the teenagers are a 'couple'.
"That's... surprisingly unexpected. Well... I also thought the two children had some kind of romance together. I didn't want to give my opinion so as not to think it's just a beautiful friendship being reversed into a romantic vision, but... Once, they and Saburo came to study together at my house, and it was amazing how Jyushi managed to cheer Jiro up. His brother and I noticed that the child could only answer the questions correctly while Jyushi was by his side, helping him."
Gentaro is delighted by the account, smiling and chuckling softly, managing to imagine the scenes of the two studying together. Rosho continues reading, still surprised by the story, and in fact, seeing that it fits the protagonists perfectly. In fact, he has already caught students writing stories among their classmates and repeating a name, but they are stories that are very similar to the one Gentaro is striving to write. He puts it aside, looking back and seeing his students staring at them.
"Okay... You can talk to Mr. Gentaro."
The students approach the writer, asking for autographs, photos, and writing tips; he grants everyone's request. And Rosho can't get the story idea out of his head.
"—Have you studied for that test you mentioned?—Jyushi asks, washing the silverware while his boyfriend dries it... And his reaction of astonishment as he puts his towel-covered hand to his face says a lot.
—Damn, I totally forgot!—Normally Jyushi would scold him for his very foul mouth, but he understands Jiro's difficulty in not paying attention to things he's not interested in.—Well, I'll help you, then.—Jiro looks at the alternative with a suffering look; he didn't want to study, he wanted to spend time with his beloved. Soon, Jyushi understands the message—Hey... Even while studying, we'll study together! Don't be sad about it.—Jyushi washes the last piece of silverware, handing it to Jiro and giving him a light kiss on the cheek, while drying his hands on his apron and taking it off, putting it back in its place and going to the room.
Later, he returns, placing a notebook, speaker, glasses, and a pencil case on the table, looking at Jiro, who Just thinking about the subject gives him a headache. Jyushi already knows what subject Jiro will be studying, opening his notebook and writing it down, while Jiro mentally notices how his handwriting is a thousand times more organized than his own.
"— I'm studying Arithmetic Mean..." — Jyushi already knew this, he remembers the subject, writing the formula in his notebook. Jiro finally approaches, as if he were going to stop an animal sitting at the table. — Well, I'll explain the subject to you, as always, putting on some music, as always, and also answering your questions, as always. — Jiro feels confident with Jyushi, even when he doesn't understand, Jyushi tries to associate it with things Jiro likes so he understands, like soccer, anime, sometimes even food.
"— My dear, you'll succeed! I won't accept you giving up." — Jyushi kisses Jiro's cheek, who feels a blush rising, starting to concentrate on studying."
...Gentaro has to admit that he had to ask one of the students what they are studying in order to apply it to the story.
Saburo was quite stressed; his older brother, Jiro Yamada, had just called him to ask for snacks when he got home. It turns out Saburo was presenting a project in Shibuya, a school event, but unlike the Osaka group, which is on a field trip, Saburo was participating in a competition. The place was hot, and he couldn't stand standing in the sun any longer, waiting for people to just walk past him without paying attention to anything he was presenting. But, a certain very recognizable person arrives and sees Saburo's work, and is captivated. Dice.
"Dice? Urgh... What are you doing here?"
"I want money... I'm the one who should be wondering what you're doing here. Woah! What is this?" Dice almost touches the younger boy's work.
"Hey! Don't touch! This is my project. Any wrong button you click could completely mess up my work!" Saburo slaps the taller man's hand to stop him from touching it, then points to a sign explaining what it does.
"'Computer that shows your family tree'... Ugh! What a boring name! That's why nobody goes to your job. Give it a super cool name, like 'Super Family Meter 2000'! That would be way cooler than just this boring scientific name!" Dice opines, which makes Saburo very angry. "Did I ask for your opinion? You complain about a name that isn't even scientific to say something even more idiotic! If you don't want to know about my job, get lost." Dice doesn't hear anything Saburo says because he's reading the sign next to him, then he grabs his cell phone and calls someone.
"Hey Gentaro... Can you come over here for something? I'll send you the location, I swear it's really cool... No! It's not just to pay me, but I swear it's something really cool!" Saburo raises an eyebrow; so far, no one besides his brother has called his work "cool," or anything like that, making him shy.
Gentaro finally arrives, looking at Dice, and when he sees Saburo, his eyes light up. Gentaro then approaches Dice, putting one of his arms around his neck and caressing his cheek. "Dice, I really needed the child urgently, thank you very much." A very light blush appears on Dice's cheek, who doesn't answer anything, just staring at the writer approaching the table.
"Saburo, can we make a trade?" Gentaro stares at the smaller man, who crosses his arms. "Hmm, speak." "I want information about your older brother, Jiro Yamada, with a person, Jyushi Aimono. Can you give me that information?" Saburo finds it strange, but he could vent about his older brother without Ichiro interrupting. "Okay, but first test my project or pay your friend, and give me an ice cream, I'm starving and so hot."
Gentaro nods, taking the 153.00 yen, handing it to Dice who goes to Saburo and gives him the money, placing his finger on a device that does something like biometrics. Saburo immediately analyzes it, noticing Dice's vast family tree, saying aloud:
"Are you Otome Tohoten's son? The dictator?" Saburo immediately covers his mouth, Dice turns to him with a confused face, and again, he didn't hear anything the younger one said. Saburo quickly gives up trying to understand, but he can't get it out of his head, analyzing the tree more closely. "Wow, it's all rich people, how did you manage to be poor?" Dice makes an annoyed face. "What?!"
Gentaro analyzes his funny conversation, just patiently waiting for his moment to arrive.
After Saburo's shift finally ends, he disassembles his work, putting it in a backpack and finally leaving the square with Gentaro and Dice. He soon spots an ice cream shop, pointing towards it as he walks in that direction, with the two following him. As promised, Saburo orders a vanilla and strawberry ice cream, and Dice decides to order one as well, chocolate and mint. After paying, they go to an available table, both eating their ice cream.
"So, can you tell me?" Gentaro crosses his fingers, staring at Saburo who doesn't like his look, swallowing the cold ice cream.
"Sometimes, Jyushi's division, the Bad Ass Temple, ends up visiting ours in Ikebukuro, since Ichi-nii is friends with their leader. I end up getting along with Mr. Hitoya, but my brother and Jyushi end up going to his room together and stay there without anyone seeing them. Sometimes, my brother also shows up wearing Jyushi's clothes. It's funny that he's gone out, slept there, and wears the other's clothes every day. I questioned their relationship once while I was sneaking into his room to get clothes to wash, and he just said that 'they were very close friends...' I was suspicious, of course... That's why I took his cell phone to read their conversations..."
Gentaro is surprised by several photos pointed at him; Saburo had taken them to analyze the situation... Well, even though he thought Jiro was irresponsible, he never considered hacking any of his brothers, regardless of the occasion, but at this moment his curiosity screams louder than anything else. The logic is clear, and these are very specific messages, with very advanced language, words that Jyushi wrote that even Saburo didn't understand, but Jiro could translate and respond to them very well.
My Moon. <3 †
— "Jiro! I have to sleep now, the moon is calling me and it's my duty to answer it for this wonderful night's sleep! I wish you a good night's sleep. May you dream incredible things and wake up ready for a long new day at your school and classes! Sleep well."
"Damn, thanks bro, good night to you too" —
"My Moon. <3 † Reacted with a <3 to your message."
Okay... Gentaro couldn't deny it, they had an affair. Probably not openly out of shame or fear of revealing it, but it served as more inspiration for his story.
"Hmm... Interesting. Do you know where your brother is?" Saburo turns off his cell phone, leaning back in his chair as he picks up his ice cream again to eat. "Dude, he's in his room right now, waiting for me to bring him some snacks."
"Could he be with this Jyushi guy right now?" Dice interjects, speaking with his mouth full while still eating his ice cream, without taking his eyes off him. The two realize this possibility, looking at each other and having the same idea: Call Jiro.
Saburo immediately opens his conversation with Jiro, making a video call. Gentaro approaches, not showing him on camera but close enough to see the phone. Soon a voice that isn't Jiro's answers.
"Hmm...? A-ah! Saburo! Uh... Did something happen?"
Saburo and Gentaro exchange glances, then turn their attention back to the screen. Jyushi had answered the phone, and seemed confused by the call, perhaps even nervous.
"Jyushi, where is my idiot brother?"
"Don't call him that... He was taking a shower! I told him you were calling and he asked me to answer it for him. Did something happen?"
The alternate's reaction to the insult catches the attention of the two; the only person intervening was Ichiro. But the younger one realized he didn't have a plausible question to disguise the call; he could use the excuse of the snacks, but his scenario was quite different from where he actually sells snacks.
Soon, the phone is taken from Jyushi's hand.
"Saburo... I asked you not to call me while I was away." "Idiot. I called... To... Find out about Ichi-nii! He didn't answer, I was worried."
Jiro had just come out of the bathroom, so much so that he was wearing a very loose shirt while drying his hair. But what is most surprising is that he took a shower with "visitors" at home, which is suspicious to say the least. They hear Jyushi asking something, and then Jiro's tone of voice becomes soft.
"The food is already arriving! I'll go get it... Well, I know where Aniki is, he was going to attend to a client, that's why he probably didn't answer you."
The difference in treatment is clear, as if a person stressed with life were going to talk to an animal they like, changing the tone of their voice.
"Well... Uh... Thank you. Wait?! Is this Jyushi's shirt?" A blush is noticeable on the phone. Jiro chokes on the question; even though he wore several of Jyushi's clothes, he never admitted to wearing them, nor did his brothers ever ask directly.
"N-No, it's none of your business! I'm going to hang up." The call ends, Saburo looks at Gentaro, who smiles, picks up his draft, and shows it to Saburo, who doesn't understand anything but begins to read.
He soon notices the story's objective, observing that several actions they do or have done together were recounted, but in a way that makes it seem like they are...
a couple. Saburo is embarrassed by the story, even knowing it's just one, he still feels like he's invading their personal space.
"You... wrote this?" Gentaro nods. "With just accounts?" Gentaro nods again. "Will you write more with what I said and saw?" Gentaro nods once more.
"You... Uh... Can you send it to me when you're finished?" Saburo asks shyly. Gentaro is surprised by the question. "Of course! When I'm finished, I'll send it to you." Saburo looks away, finishing his ice cream.
"Jiro finally manages to complete his schoolwork. Jyushi corrects everything, noticing that he finally learned and even hums the song they made together to help him remember what he was studying, actually becoming quite proud of him.
Jyushi looks at the time, almost midnight! — Wow... We need to take a shower! — Jiro also checks the time along with Jyushi, actually remembering a request he wanted to make to Jyushi.
— Jyushi... Can I wear your clothes? —
Jyushi stares at him, a warmth rising from his cheeks to his ears. For a moment he imagines his beloved wearing his clothes, he is quite happy with the idea, smiling, looking at Jiro. — Of course! Y-You can take whichever you want! — They are both embarrassed, taking a while for Jyushi to get up to get his towel.
— You can choose whichever you want to sleep in, as long as you are comfortable, that's great! — Jiro nods, going to the room of Jyushi opened Jyushi's wardrobe, looking at the older man's gothic clothes. What exactly would he pick? He looked at the clothes, completely the opposite of what he usually wears. He found a large shirt, picked it up, and examined it.
It was a clearly personalized black shirt. With bleach stains forming flower and curl designs, with '14th Moon' written in gothic letters, in addition to very small rips in the shirt. Speaking of rips, he looked at the back of the shirt and a stronger blush rose up his cheeks; it was ripped, in the shape of the ribs and spine, leaving parts exposed. He didn't think about himself wearing it to be embarrassed; in fact, he thought about Jyushi wearing the shirt.
So, he chose this one anyway, knowing that the effect wouldn't be the same on his beloved, but he thought it was just for sleeping...
After a while, Jyushi came out of the bathroom. He usually took a long time in the shower, so Jiro was used to it. Jyushi entered the room wearing simple shorts and a very loose shirt, showing his shoulder. My dear! You can take a shower. — Jiro raises his head, observing the taller man's clothes. He doesn't say anything, just heads to the bathroom in silence, making Jyushi wonder why he's so quiet. He wonders if he did something, if he saw some clothes he didn't like... But Jiro quickly finishes his shower, going to the room while drying his hair, wearing the chosen shirt.
Soon, Jyushi understands the reason. The shirt on Jiro was much larger, leaving both shoulders exposed, Jyushi found the scene adorable, with a blush appearing on his cheek.
— Wait! Don't lie down yet. — Jyushi gets up, grabbing some accessories and going to Jiro, who analyzes without understanding anything. Jyushi puts metallic necklaces on Jiro, and becomes even more embarrassed, it turns out that the objects marked the smaller man's collarbone quite well. — Waah!... You look so handsome like that... — Jiro blushes, looking in the mirror and understanding what he means, Jyushi ends up staring at the back of Jiro, noticing signs he's never seen before. This impresses him; it's funny that there's always a pattern of two signs accompanying each other. He takes off the accessories, putting them away, and hugs Jiro from behind.
Jiro is startled, looking at Jyushi while holding his arms. They stay like that for a while, until Jyushi pulls him onto the bed, not stopping hugging him. Jiro screams in fright, being held tighter by the alternate.
Finally, Gentaro is enjoying what he's producing.
Gentaro decided to take Saburo to Ikebukuro; he would hate to see the child returning home so late.
To get to the Yamada's house, he needs to cross a park, and Saburo sees a very recognizable cap. He soon notices it's his brother with that kei look; they are hugging, and he finally manages to see the shirt—it was from Argo Kushii Gakudan. There's a rumor that Jiro helped with a guitar solo in one of their songs; he might be a fan, but the shirt isn't his. It's a special one for the band members.
They seem to be very engrossed in conversation, as if nothing could take them away from that moment. Saburo then goes towards them when he is interrupted by Gentaro.
"Leave them there, even if they have something or not, Nagoya is still very far from Ikebukuro." Saburo thinks for a moment about what the older man meant. In fact, the two places are quite far from each other, meaning that Jyushi made a great effort to get here and stay with Jiro. Saburo then nods, walking back to his house, but not taking his eyes off the two of them. Saburo had never seen Jiro smile so much at someone who wasn't family.
Saburo returns home, Gentaro left him with his older brother, who thanks him for the extra care he took in Shibuya. Waving to the two of them, the writer leaves, going to the park where he sees the 'couple' he created in his head, sitting in a shop with tables set up, picking up his draft again.
"Ready to sleep, but sleep had completely awakened them from their bodies. The two are lying down, chatting about things they've experienced, Jiro talks about his school and siblings while Jyushi talks about his band and friends, whom he sees as family. It's something they like to do whenever they meet to keep each other informed.
The scene was comforting, pillows and cushions surrounding them, Jyushi hugging her best friend, Amada, while Jiro hugs a soccer ball toy that Jyushi gave him as a gift, dim purple lights that make the room's color different, them covered, while they are close to each other, able to feel each other's warmth.
Jiro yawns, making Jyushi realize how late it was: 2:46 in the morning. This is very late.
— Time for us to sleep, it's very late! — Jiro agrees, settling into bed along with Jyushi, the hugging and caressing his head. Jyushi leans against the younger man's chest, finding deep comfort.
"— Hey, Jyushi.— Jyushi looks up, trying to meet Jiro's eyes. — I love you. — Jyushi is embarrassed by the confession, holding Jiro's face and kissing his lips. — I love you too. So much. —"
Gentaro turns his eyes to the two in the park, what he wrote has probably come true.
