Lord Ohno's Home part 15
Aug. 13th, 2013 10:37 am“It was the heat...” Nino murmured again as his brother tended to the wound in his head, gently washing away the blood before applying a bandage. Sakurai didn’t look convinced and was chewing his lip and staring into his face. “I suppose that I was too confident that I had completely healed...My body was just telling me that this is not the case...I am sorry that I brought you all the way here...”
“Actually I was glad of the excuse...” Sakurai admitted as he secured the bandage around his head and Nino looked up in surprise. When he had spoken to Aiba yesterday it didn’t seem like they were having a fight or even an argument in fact Aiba had looked happier than Nino had seen him in a long time and appeared to be more or less back to his old self. Maybe that was the problem; Sakurai had yet to see his friend at his full idiot self and now that he was maybe his brother was having a hard time adjusting.
“Masaki is annoying you...?” He asked hopefully, praying that Sakurai wasn’t about to admit that his feelings for his friend had lessoned. To his surprise Sakurai let out a funny sound in the back of his throat his hands trembling as he tried to pack his bag and his face and ears went a hot looking red colour.
“More...Strained relations...” He coughed his eyes flicking down to Nino whose mouth dropped open in surprise watching as Sakurai then gave another lighter cough “I am ready to move our relationship forward but...”
“Masaki is not ready?” Nino finished for him and Sakurai nodded sitting down beside him and playing with the latch on the bag his hands making slow jerking movements and Nino felt almost sorry for his brother. It was obvious that he wasn’t a virgin he had slept with his lord’s former partner but he had lived for most his life in a temple it was obvious that he would not be as easy about matters of the bedroom as he and Aiba used to be. Even though it was a hard subject for him to talk about right now he really wanted to be able to help his brother so with a smile he touched his arm lightly as he asked “What does Masaki doubt?”
Sakurai gave a sigh his tense body relaxing all at once as he looked into his face, Nino saw that his cheeks were still burning red but his eyes were filled with determination.
“I have seen his marks, all of them, I treated them after all... And Masaki does believe that I love him but he still feels that...Once I see him naked I will change my mind...” he answered and Nino hummed thinking of his own issues his eyes went down the garden to where his lord was once again working. Iwao was no longer staring at the lord but was working seriously and now it seemed that Ohno had relaxed around him and was talking to him. He trusted his lord and in his heart was telling him that Ohno would never betray that trust but his head was refusing to agree, a tiny snide voice kept asking him why his lord would wish to be with somebody broken like him? Ohno had always believed that he was unwanted; Nino had shown him that wasn’t the case. Even if he didn’t go off with the stone mason’s brat but if he wasn’t able to give Ohno what he wanted...
“Things like that...They require time...” He said more to himself than to his brother but Sakurai heard it and gave a sigh thinking that he was speaking to him. He tugged at the buckle a few more times and then, just when Nino was tempted to slap his hand, he stopped and looked up at him his face full of misery,
“I know that...And I tell myself it every day but...In truth it does not make the waiting any easier...” he muttered and Nino nodded giving a pinched smile imagining so easily that it was his love that was saying these things. He took a breath once again looking down the garden his heart thumping when he saw his lord and Iwao leaning closely against each other. They were so close their head appeared to be touching and he saw one of the boys hands coming up to rest on his shoulder. Ohno didn’t seem to mind as he didn’t shrug him off and Nino fought against the stabs of pain that came into his heart. He pulled his eyes away from the scene and looked at Sho with another weak smile patting his hand.
“I am in a similar position to Masaki...I...Fear even the slightest touch of my love...” He admitted as softly as possible not wanting the wind to carry his voice and Iwao to hear it “But he has promised to wait and every night before we sleep he touches me, light caresses to my face a hand on my body...He even washes my hair as I bathe...It has helped...More than I thought...Perhaps you should try suggesting that to Masaki?”
“Just slowly opening him up to the idea...That seems...He...He has touched me...With both his hand and his mouth but...” Sakurai said and Nino tried his best not to grimace. He really didn’t want to know what his brother and friend had been getting up to in the privacy of their bedchamber. “When I try and return the favour...”
“Masaki wants to please you...He wants to do that more than ever so tell him that nothing please you more than to see him, if he is uncomfortable than expose only the undamaged skin and start there...” Nino suggested his eyes wanting to go back to his lord but he refused to allow them focusing completely on Sakurai who smiled warmly squeezing his hand “A fine pair of Garden trained whores we are...” Nino muttered his despair filling his voice as tears appeared in his eyes.
“Kazunari...” Sakurai murmured and Nino stiffened mentally and physically shaking himself steaming the flow of tear he reached up and touched the bandage lightly with his fingertips managing to put a small smile onto his face.
“Sorry the pain in my head is quite intense...” He whispered it wasn’t really a lie the pain had started to flare up into a very painful headache. “Do you have something for the pain?”
“Yes...I want you to take two drops now and then two drops before you sleep tonight...” Sakurai said digging into his bag and pulling out a rather twisted looking green glass bottle “It will help with the pain...”
“Thank-you...If it would help I could talk to Masaki...Actually I think that I want to speak to him about my own...Issues anyway...” Nino muttered his heart leaping in his chest when he heard Ohno let out a small deep laugh and he flinched like he had been struck to the face. Sakurai noticed and his eyes went over to where Ohno was
“The boy is not there...I believe that Satoshi was laughing with the father...” He told him and Nino relaxed just a little nodding his head as he swallowed down two gulps of the potion. It tasted like roasted almonds and he smiled as he licked the last of the drops from his lips.
“I see...I am indeed pathetic ne, when I am jealous over my lover...” Nino mumbled and Sakurai shook his head squeezing his hand again.
“I think that it just proves that you are in love...There is no shame in those feelings, you are only human...” he murmured lightly and the younger man let out a loud sigh touching the bandage again. “You have no reason to be jealous though, I have never seen my brother look at anyone the way that he looks at you...”
Nino thought about those words in silence for a while it was true that Ohno hadn’t looked at the stone mason’s brat in anything but friendship and there were none of the sweet, heat filled glances that his lord sent his way but,
“When you have only ever been measured on how much you can please a lord and then that is taken away from you...There is little that you feel that have to give. I was brought up with the belief that if I could not preform my task then I should be glad to give it to somebody that can...Jealousy is a new emotion for me...And If I am honest I hate it because I feel I am dishonouring my lord because I do not trust him...” he mused out loud and Sakurai looked at him with pity in his face. Nino gave a smile and then shook his head “Tomorrow will you bring Masaki? This cannot continue...I will learn how to please my lord again...Masaki was my teacher in the Garden as well as my friend, perhaps we can help each other through this...”
