This fanfic will have no smut scenes but there will be another version written of this fanfic that I will post on Archive Of Our Own that will .
Haruhiko Usami gave a sigh as the passenger door slammed shut , he had only just tried to persuade a man he loved to leave his current relationship with the famous author Akihiko Usami . However just like many times before he failed in his attempt .Misaki Takahashi had been a long time unrequited love of his . He was in love with the young university student , the young man was attractive , kind , polite and didn't care about Haruhiko's money . It was refreshing for him to meet such a person and he wanted the uni student .Unfortunately , for a while now Misaki had been dating Haruhiko's brother , Akihiko Usami , his brother and Misaki were in a way very happy together .
It didn't make much sense to Haruhiko , he didn't understand just why and how Misaki fell in love with Akihiko .
"Just what was so appealing about him?"
"What did Akihiko have that he didn't ?"
Haruhiko stared out of his window for a while , the object of his affection long gone from his presence and shiny black car .
"Maybe I should use a different approach?" , the man muttered to himself .
He was starting to feel very depressed about the whole situation , after all he had been trying to make Misaki fall in love with him for years now and had still yet to give up on his romantic advances . He was sure that Misaki must have feelings for him on some level , otherwise why else would the younger man act so kind and considerate towards him. He could be wrong though .
At the beginning he had first met Misaki by a coincidence and after that had fallen in love with the young man. He sent him love letters , presents and food Misaki has mentioned he liked . He had even tried to make Misaki change his mind by getting Misaki over to visit but nothing he tried seemed to work and Misaki still preferred to continue dating Akihiko Usami .
Haruhiko gave another sigh before Tanaka , his family butler started up the car and drove him home to his family mansion which seemed very lonely these days.
In England a young man aged 20 years old , gave an annoyed sigh , he was tired of this . For what seemed like the hundredth time that week he wished that he had never become famous . Since the war was won and he had defeated Voldemort the attention he received from wizarding community was unbearable and slowly becoming to much for Harry to handle . It had been tough growing up as The Boy Who Lived but now as The Man Who Defeated You Know Who it was a hundred times worse . He couldn't go out without a reporter wanting a interview, some random person making advances towards him or without getting pointed at or constantly been talked about .
Harry knew that it really hadn't been very long since the end of the war (only a year had passed) , maybe after a while it would calm down and he could live normally .
"Damn it! , I'm really sick of this!" , Harry muttered out loud to himself .
He had only came out to Diagon Alley to only get a couple of potions but he was now sincerely regretting it . Maybe Hermione , one of his best friends , was right and he should take a break from everything . He did deserve one after fighting against Voldemort all his life and growing up with a family like the Dursleys .
Once he bought what potions he needed Harry went home to Number 12 Grimmauld Place and only then could he feel like he could relax and think properly .
The next week Harry made the decision to leave England for a while . He packed clothes , potions , his photo album , money and wand and set off to the muggle airport .
The tired wizard then bought tickets for a place randomly, the place he ended up in was a place in Japan. He hoped he would at last be able to have some much needed and well deserved peace and privacy.
After a year of living in Japan he decided he actually quite liked it and so after getting the proper qualifications Harry got himself a job at a local bar and settled in to his new life .
2 years later on the 14th of February Haruhiko Usami stood outside the penthouse of his brother and Misaki Takahashi , an aura of defeat about him. In his hands he clutched tightly a box of expensive chocolates and a bouquet of the most beautiful flowers that had been available in the shop. The door of the dwelling inside had been slammed shut in his face and now these two romantic gifts of love were not going to be needed anymore .
There was a unreadable expression on the man's face , this was the final rejection for him ...the last straw . He had finally decided to give up his romantic advances towards the young man . His heart had been broken far too many times by young Misaki Takahashi's rejections and he just couldn't handle it anymore.
Haruhiko placed a hand and set it against the door as if the object of his unrequited love was on the other side.
"I am sorry Misaki I will give up now ...Please be happy", Haruhiko muttered before taking away his hand and leaving the vicinity the place where Misaki Takahashi and Akihiko Usami lived together .
Haruhiko felt empty inside at the moment ...It hurt so much and he had no idea how to make it stop.
On the way home on a impulse he told Tanaka to stop the car at a local bar they were passing by. He thought of possibly drinking his sorrow away with some alcohol , telling the butler to wait in the car he entered the bar.
This kind of place was very new and different to the man as he never usually stepped foot in such places as this . Haruhiko approached the counter of the bar to order some kind of alcoholic drink .
"Hello I would like a bottle of alcohol ...the strongest one you have" , Haruhiko said in a voice void of emotion .
The bartender , a young man with black short hair and green eyes behind a pair of glasses looked at Haruhiko and gave a nod before getting a bottle from a fridge behind him.
After paying for the drink Haruhiko took a moment to lazily observe the man who had served him and was now putting away some stock . Haruhiko had to admit to himself that the man before him was attractive with a slender and slightly muscled frame , messy hair that stuck out in all directions and if Haruhiko wasn't imagining things ...a scar on his right hand that looked like engraved words .
Haruhiko turned his eyes away from the bartender and drank some alcohol , a depressed expression on his face as he slowly started to think about Misaki again.
When the man faced Haruhiko , he had a concerned expression on his face as he approached closer to Haruhiko.
"Um...are you alright sir?" , the bartender asked Haruhiko suddenly .
Haruhiko looked up from his drink and saw a pair beautiful vivid green eyes staring at him with concern .
Sadness washed through Haruhiko's insides as he thought just how similar this man and Misaki seemed to be . Haruhiko smiled a humorless smile and shook his head at the other man .
"Do...Do you want to talk about it?"
Haruhiko then found himself telling the bartender about his unrequited love with his brother's lover , he told the man all about Misaki and how he loved Misaki so much that it hurt for his feelings to not be returned.
When Haruhiko was finished speaking the bartender was looking at him with such a sad expression it made Haruhiko feel guilty for telling him.
The bartender looked at Haruhiko , his expression turning kind , "That sounds very lonely...but...but I'm sure you'll find someone else one day . Someone who will love you just as much as you love this Misaki guy right now."
"I...I highly doubt that will ever happen" Haruhiko said , a sad smile on his face . "Thank you for your concern though , I appreciate it."
The other man blushed as Haruhiko stared at him , the bartender turned away from Haruhiko to serve another customer .
Haruhiko drank some more alcohol while he eyed the bartender with some slight interest in his eyes and he couldn't help but allow a smile form on his face as he watched the other man work .
Hours later Haruhiko's face was flushed from the alcohol and he was getting up to go home , before he left he turned to the man and thanked him for being kind to him.
The bartender blushed , he gave a polite bow "Please come again ...if ...if you need someone to talk to ...I'll listen."
Haruhiko smiled at the bartender , deciding then that he would indeed take the man up on his offer if he needed someone to talk to.
"What is your name?" , Haruhiko asked , his voice sounding slurred .
Surprise showed in the bartender's eyes for a brief moment , "My name is Harry...why?"
"I plan on returning here to talk to you so I would like to know what your name is , my name is Haruhiko Usami . I thank you for your kind words and company."
Haruhiko then picked up the bottle he had still to finish drinking from and left the bar , fully intending to make good on his promise and return to the venue to talk with the kind and cute bartender Harry.
