The food as always was mouth wateringly amazing, and somehow Jun Kazuko kept the atmosphere light and relaxed with a lot of teasing and laughter that calmed down his heart and stopped him from thinking too much about Sakurai. Kazuko was disappointed but understanding when he told her that he would be leaving next week and she had stroked his hand gently when he repeated what had happened with Sakurai

“Yamamoto-san and the others stuck up for me… It was weird…” He sighed with a smile as he remembered the attitude of the inn keeper and the bar proppers.

“Well you’re one of ours…” Jun said leaning back against the chair and resting on his elbows as he finished eating. The button of his jeans was open for comfort after the large meal and his shirt had lifted up, just enough to start showing a perfectly smooth stomach and Nino wondered for a moment if he waxed or shaved and he was tempted for one wild moment to run a finger over the exposed skin before pulling his eyes away and shaking himself

“… Yeah but when I came back last time they were all giving me funny looks” He said looking down at the patchwork quilt of the kotatsu and Jun let out a laugh

“I don’t think they mind so much that you like guys but that you didn’t date any of the guys from the village” He said his eyes flashing teasingly “Come on Kazu….you dared to date an outsider…”

“Hey! We’re not that bad…” Kazuko protested flicking a tea-towel at him and Nino when he let out a laugh and his mum beamed a little before doing her best country bumpkin accent “We just don’t trust them city folks”

“Ah that would explain why he said he wanted to see us again” He nodded with a sigh embarrassed that the inn keeper seemed to know at least some of the finer details of his relationship with the doctor

“I might be another guy but at least I’m a villager…” He said with a slight shrug and Nino tensed just a little at that not sure how to react to that his eyes flicking over to his mum who had a grin so wide her face must have been aching

“I’m going to wash the pots” He said quickly getting to his feet and gathering them up into a neat pile in the centre of the table before carrying them into the kitchen.

“I’ll help” The doctor said but Nino waved him away wanting and needing some time to think. He went into the kitchen closing the door he gave a long sigh, why couldn’t Sakurai just say he loved Ohno? Why did he have to say that he still loved him? If he was working so much that Sakurai had to cheat why say any of that crap? Why did he have to confuse him so much?

“Kazu I think you’re meant to wash the plates not break them” Jun mumbled from behind him and Nino realised that he had slammed the plates down into the soapy water so hard one had split cleanly in two. Nino jolted swearing as the plate sliced the palm of his hand “Crap, Kazu come here…” Jun said grabbing his hand and pulling it out of the water. Nino went light headed as he saw the blood bubbling in the cut and was glad that Jun was holding him up “It’s not too deep” The doctor told him relief filling his voice as he grabbed some paper towels and held them against the wound while leading him to a chair “You still can’t handle the sight of blood, Kaz?”

“Only my own” The actor mumbled woozily trying not to watch as the white paper became crimson with his blood.

“Clench your hand into a fist…That’s right…” Jun mumbled softly before shouting “Aunty, will you bring me my bag?” Nino wanted to say that he was fine but he felt the slow trickle of something wet creeping down his arm and his head spun, his face going green “Please do not be sick on my shoes again…” The doctor begged but it seemed to be too late as Nino gagged and then heaved as Kazuko came into the kitchen carrying the black bag before sticking a bowl into his lap. Thankfully nothing came out and soon Jun had patched him up with a large plaster and a bandage well rolling his eyes “Seriously, you’re a drama queen…”

“Shut up… I could feel the blood dribbling down my arm…”

“That was soap bubbles…” Jun said and Nino blushed guessing that he should have known that “Any way unless you want to destroy the rest of pots or get a matching wound for your other hand I’ll wash you dry… And then I better get going…”

“Why... You should just stay…You can share my bed like we used too…”

“Kazu I can give you time but I’m not a saint…” Jun mumbled and Nino caught his meaning his blush deepening as guilt spread into his chest

“Sorry…” He apologised taking the tea-towel with his good hand and drying the pots that Jun handed him. “What about the sofa?”

“How about I take your bed and you have the sofa?” Jun suggested with a raised eyebrow

“What no way!”

“Well then stop being silly, its only about ten minutes and if you’re going to miss me that much I can come down again tomorrow…I mean I am anyway to check on your hand and your mum”

“Ok” Nino nodded wondering why he didn’t want him to leave, they had only just started talking again but so much had happened in the few days that it didn’t feel like that was true. He couldn’t believe that Jun was the same person that had been the bane of his life in high school he was so much more mature and confident “So why a doctor?”

“Huh?”

“You never told me that you wanted to be a doctor…”

“Well you remember when my gran got sick when I was in high school?” Jun said and Nino had nodded they hadn’t been talking then but he could still remember it. It was pneumonia and the sweet old lady had never recovered. Even though they hadn’t been close at the time Nino’s heart had ached for him, like most of the village families lived together and just like his own grandparents had been to him she had been close to Jun. “Well we had to spend a lot of time in the hospital and well I just thought that it was amazing… Like I said before I never intended to be a village doctor but… I like it…”

“You've changed a lot… Even from when we were really young…” Nino mumbled and Jun shrugged as he handed him another plate,

“In spite of the way you look you’ve changed too…” He grinned “Though you never gave up the dream of being an actor…”

“I love doing it… I guess that was the problem I was always working…” He sighed playing with the bandage that was wrapped around his hand and Jun put the last of the dishes down on the side and grabbed the hand towel drying his hands as he turned to face him saying calmly and clearly

“Kazu, it is not your fault that he cheated on you…Remember that… You didn’t deserve it…And you already told him that clearly so don't second guess yourself and… Don’t keep playing with that unless you want to re-wrap it by yourself …”

“Sorry sir…” Nino saluted quickly and Jun flicked his nose the colour of his eyes changing and becoming darker as the fingers moved from his nose down to his lips tracing them, Nino’s heart raced against his ribs startled by the jolt of excitement ran down his spine “Jun…”

“Sorry…” The doctor said blinking as he pulled his hand away, Nino sighed with almost disappointment “I’d better get going…”

“Jun... Seriously wait for me okay?” Nino said glad that Jun had understood when he nodded with a smile

“I have been for a long time at least now you know I am…”
