krystalkatzficzOhno stared at his phone his finger hovering over the answer button unsure if he should press it or not. The meeting with the head teacher was still in his mind but there was no way that he could just ignore Nino like that it would hurt them both too much. With a sigh he clicked the button lifting the phone to his ear
“Hey Kazu..." He said leaning back against the bedstead looking over at the painting in the frame, Nino had posed for it shortly after they had gotten together it was completely innocent with Nino in his baseball uniform but even that would be cause for concern
"Oh-chan, thank god, I was worried that you weren't going to answer me..." Nino told him instead of a greeting sounding almost like he was close to tears causing Ohno to feel a painful stab of guilt in his heart the boy rarely show that much emotion but he knew that he had to be careful Nino had already been through so much anymore would be cruel “I’ve been ringing you for ages!”
“Sorry, sorry I didn’t mean to trouble you! My phone battery died…I forgot to charge it…” The teacher said honestly smiling with he heard the almost exasperated sigh his young lover let out and he could imagine the expression on his face, a fond smile would be playing with his lips and his eyes would have gone that chocolate brown colour they did just before he was about to tease somebody.
“Seriously old man, you should keep that charged! What if you were in an accident? Or your mum tried to ring you…?” Nino asked sounding like he was shaking his head and Ohno was surprised to hear the sound of a car in the background he had thought that he would be at home not wandering the streets at this time of night “Okay…Umn…Can I come around?”
“I…” Ohno paused wanting nothing more to see him but right now it would be a very bad idea “I…Don’t think that would be a good idea…”#
“Please…Just for a little while I want to tell you my plan…” Nino pleaded in the tone of voice that Ohno found impossible to refuse. Nino had that power over him already, there were other students with heartbreakingly sad stories in the school and it was hard not to feel sorry for them. The head teacher had said as much earlier as a homeroom teacher it was difficult not to get involved but to let it go so far that it caused a ruckus was another thing all together, but that wasn’t the case with Nino he loved him and would love him even without the sad past. He wasn’t with him through pity “I’ll bring food…” Nino’s whispered voice broke through his resolve and he nodded smiling even though he knew that the other man couldn’t see him.
“…Okay…Sounds good…”
“Get some plates out! I’ll be there soon!” Nino told him clicking off without even a goodbye, Ohno smiled though pressing the phone to his lips knowing that Nino would only say goodbye when it was really over for them, he’d told him as much when he had first questioned it and Ohno found that he liked that idea.
Shaking his head from his daze, and feeling better than he had done since leaving the school, Ohno got to his feet and stretched out his back looking forward to seeing his lover even if he wished the circumstances would be better. He hoped that ‘telling him his plan’ would include the thing that he had told the head about his girlfriend. As far as Ohno was aware Nino had only ever dated two girls in his life one when he was 10, she had apparently been a little bit older than him and had forced him into it, and the second was when he was 14. Nino hadn’t told him much about that but apparently they’d been on one date and all his bratty lover had to say about it was that her kiss was wet and tasted strangely of chocolate. He had no idea where Nino was suddenly going to produce a girlfriend from though he suspected that a lot of girls would agree if he asked them.
Trying to ignore the pang inside his chest he went into the kitchen and pulled out a few plates and put on the kettle, he was humming tunelessly under his breath when a knock sounded on the door and he hurried to open it knowing that it wouldn’t be a good thing if Nino was caught hovering around outside his apartment. He was smiling though as he opened the door and saw his teenaged lover standing outside holding up a bag of takeaway.
“Here, Oh-chan” Nino grinned happily shoving the bag in his direction and then swooping down to remove his shoes.
“Thank-you…Come on in…” The teacher said needlessly since his lover was already in the apartment but it was mainly to stop himself from just grabbing hold of him and kissing him senseless while the door was still open. Nino stood back up with another smile on his face and Ohno was positive that if a picture of them together was posted in the cafeteria he wouldn’t be bothered, being fired was almost worth that look that was on his lovers face. Nino closed the door and then stepped closer to him kissing him gently on the cheek before side stepping him and walking into the living room.
“So what did the old codger have to say when I’d left?” His lover asked making himself comfortable on the sofa by curling up like a stray cat and rubbing his cheek over the fabric. Ohno couldn’t understand why he did that, it was just an old sofa that his parents had given him that he thought smelt of dust no matter what he did to it, but Nino loved it saying it felt like home. Ohno knew that Nino had a real home now with the Matsumoto’s and he was happy with them but he was glad that Nino felt that way about his apartment.
“…That’s rude, Kazu” He admonished softly walking into the kitchen with the bag while Nino gave a half-hearted apology that was muffled against the fabric of the sofa. “He said that he could understand that given your past I would feel protective of you but I should try and calm that down while the rumours are circulating…”
“I see…So he pretty much told you to stay away from me for a bit?” Nino asked and the teacher gave a sigh and nod.
“Yes, pretty much…” Ohno nodded sorting the food out onto the plates looking over at the sofa when there was no response wondering if the boy had fallen to sleep. It was normally him that did that but several times Nino would just come in and fall asleep on the sofa hugging a pillow until Ohno had to reluctantly send him home. He had a few dozen sketches of the boy’s sleeping face but he knew that he wouldn’t fall to sleep when they were talking about something so important and sure enough Nino was sitting up with his knees drawn up to his chest staring at the collection of photos of his family as if they had personally offended him while chewing on his bottom lip. Pushing a smile onto his face as he picked up the plates and carried them over calling out “Kazu…”
“Hhmm? Sorry Oh-chan I was miles away…” Nino blinked unfurling himself and accepting the plate with a smile and putting it onto his lap while Ohno sat down beside him. “I think that he’s right, we should stay as far apart as we can until I graduate…I thought we were being careful and I don’t think anyone has really seen anything but we shouldn’t tempt fate…”
“No…You’re right…”
“Um…I’m borrowing Jun’s girlfriend…”
“Jun? Borrowing…What?” Ohno spluttered almost choking on a clump of fried rice that had decided to go down the wrong hole and Nino patted his back gently with a laugh.
“Careful, Oh-chan…It’s like I told the old…The…Kocho-sensei people will ignore rumours of you a guy when they actually see me with a girl, Masako-chan is really cool and she’ll play along without expecting it to be real…”
“And your brother is just going to go along with you ‘borrowing’ his girlfriend?”
“…I told him the whole truth…”
