Ninomiya ‘Nino’ Kazunari stared at the paper his heart in his mouth aching somewhat at both the headline and the picture that accompanied it. Idol Aiba Masaki caught with male lover! The bold red headline declared boldly atop a photo that showed quite clearly Aiba Masaki and a man in white shirt and dress trousers in a romantic clinch. Masaki looked happy, genuinely happy instead of the tired fake smiles that he had been giving recently as he gazed into the face of the man who was unfortunately obscured by the angle of the picture. That happiness would be gone now based on this headline and all the news coverage that the story was getting.

Nino wasn't completely sure how long he’d stared at the tabloid rag that he had absolutely no interest in buying given just how much it had probably hurt the idol who had once been his best friend and his first crush. Their friendship had faded when Masaki had been spotted on his way to school and had been signed up to an agency when he was only 12 years old. The other boy hadn't wanted to break their friendship but time and a move had been against them. Nino’s mum had gotten a new job in a new Provence and Nino had known that he couldn't be selfish, more so given the messy divorce his arsehole of a father had put her through when he had decided that he wanted a younger wife.

He had watched Masaki's career happily from afar though and seen him go from awkward child star to a sexy natural idol who lit up a room with his ever-easy smile and infectiously happy personality. That anybody could want to hurt him by writing about his personal life was beyond him and he truly wanted to wring the neck of anyone that could speak badly about his one-time friend.

“Urgh!” A female voice said as a hand picked up the paper that he had been starring at “I can't believe this!”

“I know, right?! I liked Masaki-chan! This is disgusting!” Another voice joined in and Nino growled turning around to glare at the two teenaged girls. They weren't intimidated but given that he was five foot nothing they were taller than he was and they stared at him in frustration that he had seemingly butted into their conversation.

“This isn't a library if you want to read that you're going to have to buy it…” He said sharply and the girl with the trashy magazine glared a little more and then threw it at him before turning on her heel and stalking away her friend trailing behind after her and giggling about fags. Nino rolled his eyes and then put the trashy magazine back before heading back to the counter where his boss’ son, and not boyfriend but guy he slept with whenever he could Matsumoto Jun, was standing dressed in the same hideous lime green t-shirt he was.

“You shouldn't scare the customers like that…” Jun told him in a bored voice smacking him lightly on the top of his head before going to stare back out at the empty store. Being a Monday morning there wasn't much in the way of customers as it was and Nino was almost sure that they could close the place up and not lose a single customer.

“Does it matter they were bitches…” he grumbled his eyes going back to the paper again wondering exactly what Masaki was thinking now and who was the guy in the photo. He had known Masaki was gay, their awkward first kiss in the shed that passed as their den in Masaki's back garden had told him that years ago but up until today he had been seen with an actress who was rather convincingly playing his girlfriend.

“Ah right your crush…” Jun snorted with a roll of his eyes his arms folding over his chest. Nino tried his best not to flush and to keep his face neutral. Although Jun was currently joking they'd had several arguments about it recently mostly because Jun had wanted them to have commitment or at the very least tell their parents while Nino was fine with what they had. He wasn’t completely sure why he didn’t want more with Jun. The man was gorgeous, even more so than Masaki, with his long curled hair that was currently tied into a loose ponytail at the base of his neck. His eyes were intense staring out at him under thick but well-shaped eyebrows ad Nino liked the way that they looked at him. They had similar interests which was foreign rock bands, which was how they had originally met. In a forum for Billy Talent, a Canadian band who they had impulsively decided to fly to England to go see them when they hadn’t had a tour in Japan. It was also clear that Jun adored him but he…He was a completely selfish prick.

“I don't have a crush…” He muttered now turning his face away from Jun to look down at the counter not wanting to have the same stupid argument when they had another three hours on shift.

“Yeah you do…” Jun huffed and Nino was literally saved by the bell when the door of the shop was opened and the electronic bell sounded to let them know that someone had entered the store. Nino turned to look at the customer and gapped in surprise. He was not the sort of person he was expecting on a Monday morning. He looked like a banker, dressed in a sleek three-piece suit with polished shoes and a pair of sunglasses perched on his nose. His mouth was full and his hair was cut in a style that was slightly too long around his face but suited him perfectly giving him the air that he had just stepped off a catwalk. He removed his sun glasses and looked around the store with a slightly curled lip before moving to browse through some items. “Done gawking?” Jun growled with more force than was normal and Nino knew that he was probably hurting him. He hadn't ever wanted anything completely exclusive and he had been upfront about that three years ago when they had first started their…whatever it was. At the time Jun, had been okay with that but now he wanted more. “Go sweep the floors…”

“Okay…” Nino agreed quickly, heading into the store room cleaning closet and coming out with the swivel headed cleaning brush. As he came out he was surprised to see that the handsome man was at the desk talking quietly to Jun who was looking surprisingly angry. His fingers were drumming against the counter and Nino could see that he was chewing on the inside of his cheek. It was a habit that he did when he was angry and trying not to show it. “Everything okay?”

“Ninomiya Kazunari?” The man said in a stiff voice and Nino gave a nod his mind flying now wondering if this man was a police officer or something. “You are Ninomiya Kazunari right?”

“Yeah…” Nino started but Jun held up his hand growling;

“What’s it to you?”

“My name is Sakurai Sho…I’m Masaki-chan’s boyfriend…” The man said softly his eyes going to the papers that displayed the image of him and Masaki. Nino swallowed a little his mouth completely dry as his eyes moved to Jun who was looking confused but still just as angry as he had been a few moments before. “Um…I know that this is out of the blue and you haven’t spoken to Ma-chan in a while but…Um…He needs a friend and he always says that you and he were the best friends…”
