Shameful Crush

Dr. Hokuto Umeda works at the school his nephew attends. What he doesn't know is that his nephew has grown a soft spot for the lecherous doctor and as their lives continue to intertwine he will find out about his nephew's unrequited love. Our story start at the beginning of Minami Nanba's first year at Osaka High. He was always very likeable among the female students and respected among the males, but the one person he felt had no clue who he was; was his love, his uncle; Dr. Umeda.

Minami sighed going through the long and boring welcoming ceremony. "Why do we have to sit through this? We don't even listen to what they say anyways." A male student next to him nodded in agreement. Minami sighed and leaned back in his chair with the two front legs off the ground, he leaned all the way back; he closed his eyes and almost fell asleep. When he felt a thin lengthy hand pop him in the back of the head. Do you know who he saw when he opened his eyes? None other than his uncle himself, Hokuto Umeda.

He sat up straight and immediately turned to look at his uncle, "Hey Hokuto, what are you doing here?" his uncle just sneered at him. "I'm pushed to come to these stupid things… its part of my job." Minami nodded, "Sound like you'd rather be some where else, Hokuto." His uncle looked him up and down then leaned in close enough for Minami to smell his smokey breath. "Yes, pee-wee I do want to be some where else. It just so happens I have a hot date planned for this evening and if this ceremony doesn't hurry up I'm going to have to cancel it."

Minami sighed having felt treated as a child would and hurt knowing the only person he really looked up to male role model thing didn't care to talk to him. He held back some of his childish tears throughout the rest of the ceremony. He realized nothing he could do would really keep his uncle from treating him like a child, unless he was to prove himself. Then, he realized something very, very startling … he had a crush on his uncle, not loved like family, but I heart you always and forever kind of love. Though he couldn't confirm his feelings towards his uncle he could see if he was indeed swinging for the other team if you don't know, it's an expression that means he likes guys .

So, to verify his sexuality he would date girls. Only problem is, there were always squabbles about who got to date him first, which depressed him and he started to fall behind in his studies. That night when he went home he found his uncle talking with a young woman. "Wow, Hokuto you brought home a woman… but I thought you were-" before he could finish his sentence Hokuto had hit him with a pillow. Minami grimaced then looked at her, "Who is she?" his uncle sighed, "Your mother thought it'd be good to get you a tutor since you're falling behind in school."

Minami was shocked, his mother had actually cared enough to go find him a tutor. Her name was Kanako, she was from the same college that Hokuto had gone to for his medical degree. Over the weeks she studied with him, he began to realize how much alike her and Hokuto were except the fact about being gay and he enjoyed the familiarity a lot. The more time he spent with Kanako the more he was reminded for his longing of Hokuto.

One night Minami found Kanako looking through his report card. Feeling embarrassed he tried to snatch it away, but he missed and pushed her down onto the floor. They landed with him on top of her. Kanako tried to move, "Minami, I can't get up." He smiled, "I know," he leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I love you Kanako." Her eyes lit up as she felt and unease settling in her stomach. She loved him too, but she knew it was not appropriate for a college student and a high school student to see each other. Though, who could control love, right? So, they had their union that lasted for awhile.

The only reason it stopped is because Minami would push, push and push. He would run Kanako's life ragged then think it would be okay to advance to the next level. Kanako didn't agree, but also, didn't want to hurt Minami's feelings too much. So, she did the best she could. She moved out of her apartment and continued on with her life. When, Minami learned of this he realized he might do the same to his uncle, so he kept his distance. Unless he absolutely had to be near his uncle.

The last day of his first year he passed Hokuto in the hall, "Hey.." his uncle looked at him and smirked. Minami flushed pink… did his uncle know? Was his uncle mocking him? He looked back and watched his uncle walk down the hall and around the corner. Disappearing down the next hall and out of his line of view.
