Chapter 1 It was the beginning of February and for once, Kitagawa allowed the members of NEWS to have a mini vacation. Well, he announced it while the boys were dancing. “It’s about fricken time!” Kusano said after they finished their choreography. He plopped down on the polished marble floor and took a sip of water. “I mean, it’s not often that we get any days off at the beginning of Spring!” “Nah, Kusano, don’t complain so much.” Shige spoke, walking past him, heading over to his bag and grabbing his phone. Koyama followed him, wrapping his arms around the younger’s waist, placing his chin on his shoulder. “Ne, who are you calling?” “I’m not calling anyone. Just checking messages…” He stopped speaking as Koyama had took something out of his pocket and put it up to Shige’s face. A condom. “Well, we’re done dancing. Shall I show you something more interesting?” Koyama watched as Shige coughed. Looking at the other members, they were all busy. So, with out attracting any attention, they left. In the mean time, Pi plopped down next to Kusano and laid his head on his stomach. “Ah~nice pillow! Kusano-kun, you’re comfy! Kon!” “Yah! Pi, you dork, what are you doing??” He sat up and looked at his boyfriend. Pi kept doing the “Kon!” thing before turning to Kusano. Pi had also sat up and tapped Kusano’s nose. “Let’s go on a date tomorrow! What do you say?” “Okay!” Pi smiled brightly, which made Kusano smile too. They looked at each other for a moment before falling into the mood of kissing. The next morning….. Kusano yawned on his way to the bathroom. Looking at the mirror, he thought of Pi, and nearly saw his refection. “Crap!!! I gotta get ready and look good for Pi!” He turned on the water and washed his face. About 10 minutes later… “Yatta! All done!” He said excitedly once he finished with putting the finishing touches on his hair. Turning off the bathroom light, he headed down to eat breakfast. Over at Pi’s place…. “Kusano! Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!” Pi rolled out of bed and onto the floor, wrapped up like a egg roll. His sandy blond hair was a mess. He blinked and moved the blankets off him. “Eh…I guess that’s the effect of me dreaming about my babeh...I fall on the floor.” He yawned and picked up his blankets. Moving to the bathroom, he examined himself, well, mainly the pendant that he always wore, even when sleeping. It was a gift from Kusano when he had turn 20. He smiled thinking of the boy. After washing up, he smirked saying “time to look yama-fied for my babeh!” About 20 minutes had passed… Kusano had heard a knock on the front door from upstairs. “Kusano, sweetie, Yamashita-kun is here!” Coming down stairs to meet his boyfriend, Kusano lit up knowing that they we going to spend time with each other. ‘Finally’, he thought. What he didn’t know was that Yamapi had thought the same. Saying bye to the parents, they headed out in Pi’s red Jaguar. It was sunny and clear outside. Perfect for a date. “Where do you want to go? Your wish is my command.” Pi looked over at him, eyeing the wardrobe and liking what he saw. “You look smoldering, Hironori.” Kusano blushed deeply. ‘Whoa…never heard Pi talk like that. What to do? What to do?’ “Thank you…you too! Hey, you wanna just drive around for a bit?” “Like I said, your wish is my command.” “Okay genie!” With that said, they drove off. They talked about random stuff, and when there was a red light, they kissed. Sometimes, Pi’s hand would wander on Kusano’s legs, causing the boy to turn bright red. “Pi…are you thinking of a love hotel?” “Eh?! No! I meant to grab the crotch, I mean clutch!” He spoke really quickly. “Ahehehehe….let’s go eat!” Before Kusano could say anything, Pi had drove into a parking lot of a restaurant. Putting the car into park, Kusano grabbed Pi’s hand before it could leave the clutch. “Pi…did you want to go to a love hotel? Was that all you were thinking about?” He watch as Pi gulped and looked away. “Kusa…no, it’s not like that…it’s not like that at all!” ‘How can I explain to him without sounding so stupid?’ “Then what is it? We’ve been dating 3 weeks and I heard those rumors of you doing such things with others so quick, but I didn’t believe any of them, because I didn’t think you were like that! But now…are you really after sex? My gosh, Pi, I‘m not a sex toy!” “I….no…it’s not true! I mean, I…Kusano…no! Listen! I want you, but not in that way, and not that soon! I want you to feel comfortable with me. I don’t want to rush you. I’m willing to wait for you. Please stop thinking all I want from you is sex!” Pi was panicking a lot. He hated this moment so much! “Then, you should keep your hands to your self. Don’t you think it was a bit too soon to touch me there?” He said calmly and got out of the car. Pi got out and followed him. “Kusano!” He called to the younger as they were a little ways down from his car. “Go away Pi!” Pi grabbed his hand. “Just wait a moment!” He pulled him against a wall, which happened to be a alley. “Listen to me! I don’t want just sex from you! I like you for you. I really do like you and even if you hate me for this, I still like you. So much…Kusano, please trust me when I say I won’t rush you. Try and have faith in me, just like you did before we started dating. Please?” Kusano looked at him, and smiled faintly. “Un! Pi, I’m sorry for overreacting.” He kissed him on the lips. “Forgive me?” “When will I not?” Pi kissed him again. And again. And again! Finally, after a few moments, they broke apart. “C’mon, let’s go eat.” Kusano nodded and let Pi take his hand. “Ah! I forgot my wallet in the car!” “Pi! What a way to kill the moment!” Kusano laughed at him, who was blushing in embarrassment. “Sorry!” He went to the car, and got the wallet. Then they headed off to eat.
