Masako felt her mouth drop open at Jun’s honest statement, she had been expecting him to continue to lie to her and treat her like an idiot so she was pleasantly surprised that he hadn’t. Behind her she heard Ohno’s sharp intake of breath and then felt Sho’s hand resting on her shoulder. She wasn’t sure how to react now, all the way back from the aquarium she had been gearing up for an argument or a fight with both her friend and her father but now she felt oddly deflated.

“Hey everyone welcome back, have fun...Whatever it was you were doing?” Nino asked brightly floating out through the French doors, looking completely refreshed and happy for somebody that had been suffering from a headache and Masako tensed again wondering if Jun had been pulling the wool over her eyes. “J...Thanks for taking such great care of me...”

“You’re welcome...” Jun mumbled and Masako was quick to notice the flush that crept onto her friends face and the way that his eyes dropped to the floor, his book twisting around between his fingers until the pages were all crumpled. She shook her head her arms going over her chest as she openly glared at her father, studying his face she gave a loud growl noticing that there was no signs of any ‘headache’ and she knew that she was just being fooled again.

“You’re sick!” She spat glaring at her father unable to stop the rant that was coming tumbling out of her mouth and hot angry tears were filling her eyes as she continued her rant “You’re 36 years old you’re not meant to sleep with someone that’s as young as your daughter...But then again you’re nothing but a whore, you’ll just sleep with anyone and use people...Like you use Uncle Ohno...You hurt him earlier! He looked so sad when we met him at the aquarium...”

“Masako...” Sho murmured softly coming to put a hand on her shoulder trying to soothe her

“No!” She shouted pushing the hands away and blinking rapidly to get rid of the tears in her eyes as she turned back to Jun “I thought you were my friend...”

“I am...” Jun murmured looking a little lost his eyes going over to Nino, Masako caught the action and threw her arms up into the air hissing angrily before running into the house screaming ‘I hate you’ at the top of her lungs.

*~~*~*~~*

Nino stared blankly after his daughter unable to believe what had just happened. Masako was normally so bright and cheerful that it was easy to forget that she had a temper. Even as a child there had never been many blow ups between them so he was surprised and unnerved by what he had just witnessed. He had already decided that he wouldn’t pursue anything with Jun unless he had his daughter’s full consent and after this reaction he doubted that he would get it.

“Nino...” Ohno murmured coming close but Nino shrugged him off shaking his head with a hiss

“Save it old man...” He muttered forgetting that they weren’t alone; he glared at the rounded face of his friend until Sho came up to him flexing his muscles a little.

“Don’t take it out on my dad...It’s not his fault you can’t keep it in your pants...” He said and Nino was tempted to tell him just what the boy’s perfect father was really like but even now he couldn’t bring himself to say it and hurt his ‘Oh-chan’ like that. He brushed his fingers through his hair and then found himself smiling when Jun caught his free hand giving it a squeeze. There was something so comforting about the younger man that it was almost unbelievable earlier, when Jun had given him the pillow, he hadn’t been able to stop smiling loving the gesture that nobody had thought to give him before. He regretted that he couldn’t stay here enjoying the warmth though knowing that he had to make it up with his daughter. He squeezed the hand firmly and then stepped forward ignoring both Sho and Ohno and walked into the house.

Masako was sat huddled in front of the fan holding up torn pieces of tissue and letting them blow in the small wind before catching them and repeating the process.

“Masa-chan...” He murmured softly kneeling down beside her and touching her arm hating the way that she pulled away from him and muttered

“Go away”

“No...I won’t...” He said shaking his head “I need to talk to you...Come for a walk with me...”

“Why so you can tell me a pack of lies again, and treat me like I’m stupid...?” She growled shuffling around on her bottom trying to ignore him and Nino smirked wrapping his arms around her from behind and hugging her tightly his chin resting on her shoulder.

“No it’s so I can tell you the truth...” he mumbled his cheek pressing against hers “I know that I made a mistake in getting Jun to lie to you earlier...And I’m sorry...But please come for a walk with me so I can talk to you...”

*~*~*~*

Masako wasn’t sure why she agreed or why she allowed her father to pull her down the wooden steps that led to their part of the beach. But there was something in his voice that made her follow and hear him out so here they were standing in front of a calm ocean waiting for him to speak. It looked like he was having some difficulty in finding the right words so she just stared out over the ocean and waited.

“I would like to have a thing with J; it might not be anything serious...” Nino murmured slowly after what felt like and age “I mean he’s young he’ll probably get tired of the old man before I do but...He’s interested...But...I...I can’t believe that I’m going to say this but...I don’t wanna do anything if you don’t approve...”

“Why? It’s not like you’ve ever needed my opinion before...You just do what you want like you always do...” She spat still unable to keep her anger from her voice and Nino sighed squatting down onto the sand rolling it through his fingers for a minute as he stared out over the waves crashing against the sand.

“I...I am finally giving up on Oh-chan...” He muttered and Masako felt like she had been slapped in the face and then punched in the gut. “All my life I’ve been in love with him...Christ, I’ve been so pathetic chasing around after a straight guy that has no desire for me...Truth is though I was afraid to grow up, Oh-chan has always been there for me and well I took advantage of that...But...Don’t tell Sho-kun yet, but Oh-chan is getting married again, he proposed to her a month ago...They asked me to be the best man...Of course I agreed who knows more embarrassing secrets about the old man than me?”

“Papa...” Masako whispered looking sown at the hunched figure unable to believe what she was hearing all her anger dissipated quicker than it had built knowing how hard this must be for her papa.

“But...It made me realise just how...Fucked up I’ve been so I’m going to give him up...It’s going to be hard and well...Maybe I shouldn’t use J, he’s just a kid but he knows that it might just be sex...And he’s okay with that...”

“But if it all falls apart...” Masako muttered kneeling down beside him in the sand and resting her head on his shoulder. Nino sighed turning so his face was pressed against her and he kissed her cheek lightly before whispering,

“Then it falls apart...But I promise you that I’ll handle it with more grace and hopefully more class than any of my pervious break-ups...I promise that you won’t lose your friend because of this...”

“You’re really giving up Uncle Ohno?” Masako asked shakily

“Y-yeah...Think it’s about time, ne? 32 years in a long time to love someone that can never love you back...” Nino gave a broken sounding laugh and Masako hugged him quickly arms wrapping around his smaller frame as he continued to laugh “I’m sorry...I guess I’m still weak cause of the whole headache thing...”

“Earlier...Did you really have a headache?”

“Yes...I’m mean we made plans to do something but I got a headache and Jun just took care of me...He even brought me a full body pillow cause I said I couldn’t sleep alone...” Nino laughed pulling away from her and Masako blinked in surprise her mouth dropping open “I think he put me in my place...But it was a really sweet gesture...Masako...This thing with Jun probably won’t last...He knows this and I know it...But I think we could both help each other...”

“Papa...Um...I’m sorry that I called you a whore...” She said burying her face into his neck and Nino laughed patting her on the back

“And I’m sorry that I treated you like you were stupid...I’ve never once thought that...You’re the smartest chick that I know...Sho is lucky to have you...”

“It’s not like we’re getting married or anything...” She mumbled fighting the blush in her cheeks and Nino laughed squeezing her tightly.

“Not yet but one day I’ll walk you down the aisle to your second love, ne?” He replied and Masako almost purred glad that he remembered something that was so important to her “But I’ll always be your first love right?”

“Right...”

TBC
A/N: I’m so not sure about this part but Masako/Aiba is such an emotional person that I think it would weird him/her out that his/her dad was dating a friend...I hope that it’s okay...

Masako is pretty stable if she can approve of it this sooner, or that's what I think :p This father and daughter relationship between Nino and Masako is so sweet and rare :p
I don't really like Sho's attitude to Nino in this chapter, well that's because he doesn't know that his father is wrong too

I wasn`t surprised by Masako`s reaction but I'm glad she listen to Nino and believed that nothing happened between him and Jun.
I'm a little sad about Ohno, he let Nino take all the blame.

Smart way to mention about the second love thing, hahaha.. Nino does know how to win his daughter's heart back XD.
I was kinda hoping that Ohno would tell the kids when they went out earlier, but it seems that he was too coward :(
