“You, you... You’re...” Masaki started and then stopped several times his tongue feeling glued to the roof of his mouth as he looked Nino up and down. The smaller man looked up from the floor a very small smirk playing around on his lips. He removed the guitar strap from around his neck and bowed with a flourish saying brightly;

 
“Ninomiya Kazunari, former lead vocalist and main song writer of Black Magic. Nice to meet ya... “

 
"What? But you can’t be! I mean look at you! You hate Black Magic” Masaki spluttered knowing that it was true the lead singer had such a distinctive voice that nobody would be able to copy it pitch perfect and yet Nino had.

 
" Nobody could hate a band as much as sunshine does without knowing them personally. He’s not lying. He is the lead singer…” Satoshi hummed with a chuckle holding his hands up when Nino turned to glare at him snarling;

 
“Was, Black Magic is over”

 
“Why? You were so good; you were just about to make it worldwide…” Masaki whispered his heart pounding against his ribs as Nino gently placed his guitar down against the amp. His fingers moved over the shiny surface and then he let out a sigh;

 
“Kid, it’s none of your business…” Nino picked up something else he had brought out of his room and Masaki blinked as a plain case with scrawled writing on a white disc was pressed into his hands. “Here, it’s not the same as the CD your uncle gave you and I know it won’t replace it, but here…This is…The demo, it has all the same songs, and some that didn’t make it into the finished CD. Just try not to play it too loudly, okay? I’m sorry for what I did, I’m going out”

 
“Sunshine…” Satoshi hummed reaching out for him, but Nino gave a tense smile and then darted out of the room. The older man let him go while Masaki just stares at the CD a strange buzzing feeling in his mind unable to believe that Nino the man that seemed to hate every little thing about him was, in however roundabout way, the person that had gotten him through the darkest parts of his life and now he had what was the original CD the band ever made. “How are you feeling?”

 
“I’m feeling better, I’m sorry…” Masaki said aware that the cup was still in pieces on the floor and that the chocolate had soaked into the lighter coloured carpet.
“It wasn’t your fault. I know how Sunshine can be. I remember your uncle; he was a good man” Satoshi’s hand patted him on the shoulder gently and Masaki nodded tears coming to his eyes as he looked at the broken CD and then the one in his hands.

 
“He was the best” He agreed his heart aching as he chewed on his lower lip. He had a huge amount of questions buzzing around in his mind but more than anything he wanted to clean up and then maybe go to his room but at the same time he didn’t want to be alone. “…Did he know…Nino? The band?”

 
“I think they met a few times” Satoshi nodded “I know he came here to drink, and the band hung out here all the time”

 
“What happened to them?” Masaki wondered and Satoshi let out a sigh coming to sit beside him on the sofa. His head lay against the lightly battered head rest his fingers pinching his nose as he gave him a very slow and sad smile.

 
“It’s not for me to talk about, but I hope that one day they will get back together. They were good and it was nice that Sunshine had a way of getting out his anger without breaking things” He said and Masaki almost smiled before remembering the interview he had heard when Black Magic had said they were disbanding.

 
“He said that they wouldn’t get back together even if it cured cancer”

 
“Yeah, he always says stupid shit when he’s angry or drunk, it’s worse when he’s both angry and drunk which is happening more often these days. But honestly, he misses the guys of the band so much that it hurts. C’mon, Masaki, put your CD on and then we can get this cleared up”

 
“I can do it”

 
“I’ll help, many hands make light work. Isn’t that what they say? Besides, it was Sunshine’s fault” Satoshi’s smile became brighter as he knelt and started clearing up the mess from the cup while Masaki moved to pick up the fragmented pieces of the broken CD. It still caused his heart to hurt but as the raw music from the Demo disc started playing it allowed him to calm just a little.

 
“But not yours”

 
“Sunshine is my problem, c’mon”

 
“Um, you and Nino…Are you…Um…I dunno, you…I…” Masaki flushed brightly as Nino’s voice echoed loudly around the apartment along with the loud base and thrashing drums. It was so…Raw and unpolished but still as good as the CD.

 
“I am in love with him” Satoshi’s answer was direct without even a hint of hesitation and Masaki blinked in shocked silence his mouth hanging open as he looked at the older man who had a gentle smile on his lips. “I have been since he first came in and sat at the bar with a fake ID telling me that his band was gonna be huge. Unfortunately, I was already married, and Nino was dating somebody else”

 
“…But he…Um…” Masaki lightly scratched at his neck thinking of all the men that he had seen Nino with and clearly Satoshi knew what he was thinking about as he gave a smile shrugging;

 
“He broke up with his boyfriend, I, on the other hand, am still married and Sunshine may be a lot of things, but he will never sleep with a married man”

 
“You don’t live with your wife?” Masaki asked trying to understand the strange man and his relationship but failing to understand and Satoshi shrugged again giving a light chuckle the broken remains of the cup grasped in his hands. “Sorry I’m being very nosy, aren’t I?”

 
“A little but its understandable, it is a very strange relationship. I own another bar in another town, my wife works and lives there. She comes to visit every so often and I go to visit her. Otherwise we live separate lives, okay, I’m going to get the carpet cleaner before the carpet stains” His tone was heavier than Masaki had ever heard it before and Masaki watched him go, wholly confused and shocked by everything he had learnt.
