Chapter 1

Hiroki was 18 years old, and the top in his class at his university. Although he was a total bookworm, he was actually very popular. He had coloured strips of his hair with black and green, and piercings on his left ear. Whenever he wasn't reading, studying or working on a thesis, he would work out. As a result he had a lean and fit body, and this, in addition to his very handsome face, attracted many girls ( and guys, but he wouldn't tell anyone that).

Akihiko had gone to the USA for two years to study literature to improve his writing. That was at the age of 16. He returned to Japan two years later to find something shocking. He had actually slapped himself at first, not being able to believe what he was seeing. Hiroki, his Hiroki, wasn't the same person he had left in Japan two years ago. He was, different. Soon after he had learned that Hiroki had only changed on the outside, and was still the same stubborn and crazy bookworm he knew. Although he told Hiroki he disapproved of his new look, which earned him bruises from a storm of flying books, he actually didn't dislike it at all, he liked it. Very much. He would never admit it to his friend, but he found the new look quite, sexy.
