Hatori's POV

My front door opened with a click and it was stopped abruptly by a blockage. I peeked my head inside to

see Chiaki sleeping in my foyer. What the hell? I pushed it and the boy didn't even stir. I've loved him for

so very long… but my love will remain forever unrequited. "Oi… Chiaki! Get up." He stirred a little. I

bumped him with the door as I squeezed through the opening. They say you can fit anywhere your head

does… maybe that's cats? I closed the door after a long struggle. I picked up the sleeping man and

placed him in my bed. He instantly rolled over and hugged my pillow. Why does he do this to me…I

shook off the perverted thoughts that ran through my mind. I closed the door with a sigh. That man has

no idea. I placed the groceries I had bought into the fridge. About an hour later a sleepy eyed Chiaki

walked in. "Tori what time did you get home?" "Late because someone misses his deadlines all the

time." I snapped. "Gomen Tori, I'm in a slump I couldn't think of what to do next." He explained himself.

A blush crept over his angelic face and I turned away not wanting to blush myself. "Well you should

sleep at home." I complained. "But your house is better." He countered. Talking to him was like talking

to a child. "How so? My apartment or your luxurious one." "I don't know why! I sleep better here!" He

whined. "Fine fine but when you're here work on your manuscripts. I'm starting to buckle down and not

be so lenient on you from now on." "Yes sir." The boy pranced over to my kitchen table and pulled out a

vanilla folder from his leather bag. He bites the end of his pencil and starts to sketch something. The

only sounds that fill the room is a pencil scraping over paper. "What's your next story about?" I began

an awkward conversation. It wasn't always this awkward but things changed randomly. We used to talk

and laugh about random things. After we started this job situation everything seemed to be about

work… "I was thinking of drawing a park scene and the girl finds her love interest with another girl and

she becomes jealous." He explains. "It sounds a bit unoriginal… don't you think." "You may be right.

What if the girl meets him at the country club?" "Go with the park." "Yes Sir." He salutes me and

continues drawing. Why can't I ask him about things other than work… "So how's your mom?" Yeah that

wasn't lame… "She's fine. She actually wants me to come and pick up some vegetables." "Why?" "The

neighbor grew a lot and had a large harvest." He explained. "I see…" "Do you want to go with me?"

"Why would I do that?" I finally turned to him peeling my eyes off an uninteresting television show.

"Because I don't want to go alone." He continued. "No." "WHY TORI PLEASE!" he pleaded. "Fine I'll ask

Yuu." He exclaims standing and reaching for his cell phone. Yanase…. I can't stand him. He obviously

loves Chiaki as much as I. Why doesn't Chiaki see it. Would he view him differently? What if he realized

my feelings? Would he think I'm gross? "Wait Chiaki. I'll go. I have to feed my parents puppy while they

are in America." I completely forgot about the small dog. I hope it wasn't dead… it was a pedigree… my

parents would flip. "I have to go now! I didn't feed it for 2 days." I announced grabbing my coat. Chiaki

hung up the phone. "YOU DIDN'T FEED A PUPPY FOR 2 DAYS WHAT KIND OF PERSON ARE YOU!" He

exclaimed grabbing a sweater. "It's fall you should wear a jacket." "NO THE PUPPY THE PUPPY!" He ran

down the hallway stairs running to the car. "HURRY TORI YOU BETTER BY THIS DOG TREATS!" he stated

sitting in the passenger seat. He really was like a child. It was to the point to where I wanted to ask him if

he was old enough to sit in the front seat. I climbed in beside him starting the navy car. "Hurry tori!" he

pestered. "Look I'm not speeding a dog is a dog they only need to eat once a week anyway." "TORI

WHAT THE HELL" He screamed punching me in the arm. We then had a 20 minute conversation on how

dogs are just like humans and they have to eat just like us. I already knew that but I then felt something.

This feels like old times… He kept blowing off steam. "Maybe you could use this in your manga." I

commented making him stop his rant. "Excuse me?" "Well you can make the love interest dog sit for an

aunt or something." I pointed out. "Oh I suppose your right." "This feels like old times." I chimed in…

"What do you mean Tori?" He cocked his head slightly. "I mean we aren't talking about work." I smile

and he yells at me to look at the road. We arrived at the house to see a very lively Labrador puppy. "Hi

there Chuck… I'm sorry I brought you treats." The puppy looked at me with wide eyes sniffing my pant

leg. My parents went with an English name because I guess the dog responds better. "Here you go

Chuck." I give the puppy a large share of chicken. He eats it hungrily looking for more. I put his kibble

into his bowl and refill his water. This is annoying… I should just take the dog home. "Neh Chiaki?" Chiaki

looks at me from his knees. He was playing with the dog while I cleaned it's bowls. "Should I just take

the dog home?" "I guess so… That way he can't pee all over." He commented pointing to a spot on the

rug. "BAD DOG" I shouted and the puppy shrunk back. I blotted it up unhappily and grabbed the dog

crate. "Chiaki can you carry the food?" I asked motioning my head in it's direction. "Sure…" He got up

and grabbed the kibble bag. We left as I lead Chuck with his leash. I placed the supplies in the trunk and

the puppy in the backseat. Chiaki and I climbed in and I started the car. "So you have to pick up

vegetables?" "huh… yeah." "Alright lets go." I pulled away going towards his house. We arrived about 15

minutes later. "Konichiwa sorry for the intrusion." I announced following Chiaki. "YOSHINO!" His mother

explained hugging him. I wish I could hug him like that… "Hi there Hatori-kun" She said with a smile. I

smiled back at her hiding my pain. "Oh the vegetables!" her eyes widened slightly as she walked into the

kitchen. I've been here to many times before. Chiaki and I are childhood friends which makes my love

even more painful. I've loved him since we were teenagers. He tells me everything… He even told me

about the first time he had sex. I was heartbroken but of course I couldn't show it. I had to act like his

childhood friend. Sooner or later this love was going to swallow me whole and I will die alone. I followed

Chiaki as we walked into the kitchen. We sat at the round table as his mother fished through the fridge.

"When are you going to find a girlfriend?" His mother asked out of the left field. It struck me like a truck

strikes a deer. I felt as if my insides caved in on themselves. I was on the verge of tears… But yet again… I

couldn't cry. Why was I getting so upset over a question. "Mom I'm far to busy for that type of thing." He

explained raising his hands. My stomach churned with uneasiness. I was going to be sick. "I'm going to

watch the puppy." I stood up and left not wanting to be in such a terrible atmosphere. If only he knew. I

sat in the car next to the puppy. I lay on the back seat my arms behind my head. Chuck sat on my

stomach warming me. "Hi there Chuck" I greeted him scratching behind his soft ears. "It's hard…" I

began talking to him. It was then that I noticed a stray tear rolling down my cheek. The puppy moved to

my chest licking my cheek with his soft tongue. "You're a good dog aren't you." I questioned smiling at

the tiny blonde ball. "If only he knew…" I sighed closing my eyes. Knock Knock I opened my eyes to

Chiaki tapping the window. I fell asleep. The warm puppy nestled into my chest stirred as I placed him

on my jacket. I got into the front seat and Chiaki got in the passenger. "Tori what happened to you… are

you really that tired from work?" He asked curiously. "Huh… no the puppy was just warm." I confessed

hiding my mental distress. "Tori are you okay your eyes are red…?"He pressed moving his face closer to

me. "I'm fine" I assured moving back. "So am I taking you back to your apartment?" I looked at him as

he buckled his seatbelt. "Huh no, I'm going to your house." He announced stubbornly. "You assume I'll

let you stay at my house." I inquired knowing that I will anyway. "Of course, Tori is my best friend." He

smiled at me. I smiled weakly breaking on the inside. We drove home and the puppy happily took a seat

on my couch. I cooked us dinner and Chiaki fell asleep on the couch. Chuck walked over to me and he

became my shadow. He followed me everywhere. I stared at the dark haired boy sleeping on the couch.

I made my way over to him. His hair fell over his eyes and his neck was at an odd angle. I picked him up

swinging my bedroom door open. How common this was.I placed him down on the bed tucking him in.

He stirred slightly but settled into the pillow. "Hmm… Tori." He mumbled. He doesn't know what he

does. Whatever control I had melted when he moaned my name so sweetly in his sleep. I leaned over

and placed a loving kiss on his soft lips. It was sincere and full of love. I have wanted to do this forever. I

felt Chiaki jolt beneath me and I released his tender lips to realize his beautiful blue eyes had sprung

open. He placed a finger on his lips as he stared at me. He blushed so sweetly I couldn't take my eyes off

him. I then jumped up in embarrassment and excused myself closing my bedroom door behind him.

What have I done…
