krystalkatzficzSatoshi smiled as Nino bounced on the bed beside him. He hadn’t slept a night alone since Nino had confessed his feelings to him three months ago and though they hadn’t gone further than kissing and heavy petting every so often, Satoshi had never felt happier in a relationship. It was currently 4am after Black Magic’s first show back and Nino was practically bouncing off the walls. All the band had, but Nino was like a ball of restless energy and he hadn’t had the luxury of being able to drink. The pills he was on from his therapist had bad side effects when mixed with alcohol and Nino was being strict in taking them. Satoshi didn’t want to bring down his lover’s mood by mentioning Jun, but he knew that he needed to.
“Sunshine…”
“Yeah? Am I bothering you?” Nino asked earnestly as he switched off his music player and looked down at him. He stopped bouncing and Satoshi shook his head.
“No, but I need to talk with you”
“…You’re still coming on tour with me, right? I can’t do this without you…”
“I’m still coming, the new manager will do a good job…” Satoshi assured him. He didn’t like taking off from Arashi for a few months, but he had finally found a manger he trusted, and Rina and Erika had promised that they would come and check on the place. Nino had asked him to do the tour with him and he hadn’t been able to say no, not that he would have anyway.
“It’s about Jun…”
“It’s about Jun…”
“What? That he was at the show tonight?” Nino dropped like a sack of potatoes into the spot beside him on the bed and Satoshi blinked in surprise. He hadn’t thought that Nino had seen Jun or knew that he was there tonight but clearly, he had misjudged him.
“…You saw him?”
“No, but I…I figured that he would be. Did you see him?” Nino sounded calm, but Satoshi had known him long enough to recognise the levels of calm his lover had. This was the Four Minutes away from a complete and utter break down if you don’t say something to help calm. Unfortunately, not even Satoshi knew what to say to make this all okay for Nino. In the last three months Nino had learnt to accept that the things that had happened in his past weren’t his fault but he hadn’t yet started to believe that had hadn’t forced Jun in to a relationship with him.
“Yes, Erika dragged him to a storeroom, and I followed…”
“Did she hurt him?” Nino sounded both worried and hopeful and Satoshi shook his head humming lightly
“No, but she scared the shit out of him…He wants to talk to you…I told him that I would ask”
“I don’t want to see him” Nino muttered looking down at his arms. He had been showing his scars more lately as part of his therapy. Learning to accept the past and embrace the things that had happened but, Satoshi knew he still hated the scars that discoloured his skin. His forefinger ran up and down the length of his largest scar but he didn’t try and scratch it which was a big improvement.
“Sunshine…”
“I don’t want to see him, but…I need to see him…” Nino sighed looking up from his arm before moving around on the bed so he was sitting in his lap with his head resting on his shoulder. Satoshi wrapped his arms around his waist and kissed his neck gently. “You will be there?”
“Of course, I will be wherever you need me, Sunshine”
“Good…I love you”
“I love you too, Sunshine. I’ll ring, Sho in the morning and get him to call Jun. We go on tour tomorrow so it should be later today that you speak with him”
“Hmm…How did he look?”
“Same as ever…Older…Not eternally young like you, but I guess he looks good” Satoshi answered with a shrug. Nino let out a bitter laugh and then joked
“Damn, I was hoping he was fat and bald…Ah well, can’t have everything…I feel tired now…”
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to ruin your mood…” Satoshi was tired himself but he liked to see Nino hyper and bouncing looking like the confident person he was born to be again but he knew that he couldn’t go on tour for a few months and not let Nino had the chance of talking it through with Jun. He hoped that it would be the last part of healing that he needed.
“No, it’s fine, Old Man, I should sleep, and so should you…Thank-you” Nino pressed a gentle kiss to his cheek before slithering down the bed and into the cover making sure that his body was still pressed against Satoshi. Satoshi followed his example and lay on his side facing him his hand resting on his hip as he asked
“What for?”
“For being you, Old Man, there doesn’t need to be another reason. Good night”
“Good night Sunshine and thank-you for being you” Satoshi smiled and kissed Nino’s nose before switching out the light and closing his eyes with Nino snuggling closer to him.

The next afternoon had Nino running around the stage frantically trying to soothe the built-up nerves that were clawing at his insides. They had been present since he had woken that morning but had grown with each passing minute. Jun was due to arrive at any moment and he couldn’t sit still. Satoshi was cleaning the bar and chatting to Erika and Rina who would be staying until Black Magic left for their tour tomorrow and Nino was glad that they were there as well but his eyes were really only focused on Satoshi. It had grown steadily over the last three months, but he was well and truly in love with his old man. His wonderful old man that would move the earth closer to the moon if he asked him to.
The sound of the door opening with a loud creak had his thoughts scattering to the seven winds again and he jumped up and paced unable to look up from the stage until he heard a familiar voice that he had almost forgotten say.
“Nino…Um…It’s been a long time”
“…Um…Yeah…Yeah, it has…” Nino moved his head slowly forcing himself to look at Jun who looked overly formal in a grey suit and brown tie. His hair was neatly trimmed, and he was wearing thick rimmed glasses. His mouth was still sweetly crooked, and his eyebrows were still the thickest he had ever seen on a man. “You look good…Like a nerd…But good”
“And you still look like a teenage brat, but you’re as cute as ever…”
“Yeah…So, you were at the show?”
“Yup…You were great…The band played really well…The new bass…He’s good” Jun admitted looking reluctant and almost jealous and a little vindictive part of Nino couldn’t help but rub it in and he nodded saying
“He is, can you believe he’s only been playing three months? Kame and Ryo have been teaching him…”
“He’s a good fit…Better than I was…”
“When you’re right, you’re right…” Nino snorted “He’s a good kid…Only reason I wanted to start up again…Jun…I’m sorry…For making you feel like you had to be in a relationship with me…For abusing you…”
“Stop!” Jun growled loudly his voice echoing around the whole club and Nino saw Satoshi coming hurrying towards them. “You didn’t force me…At all, how could you even think that? Jeezus…That’s what you’ve been thinking? For fuck sake…”
“You’re not gay, Jun, you felt guilty for what happened and you…”
“I loved you, I love you…I had found you bleeding out. I thought you were gonna die, Nino, and I didn’t understand why. Then…When you were in the hospital…And I found out about Father David and everything he had been doing…And that he was holding me over you…Yes, I was confused and yes I wasn’t in love with you but I fucking loved you. And the only think I regret about our relationship was that I was so much of a fucking coward that I didn’t tell you” Jun spat and Nino blinked at him in confusion, “I’m making a mess out of this, but you…Get that thought out of your head. You never forced me into anything…”
