Chapter 2

Normal POV

An ice cold look took place of the fear in Onodera. And this was not a pretty one. This ice cold look could potentially win against Takano's coldest look or even Yokozawa's

Onodera glared at her with the most evil glare anyone could ever imagine

"I'm not scared" he mumbled

"What…?" An asked confused

"Tell him. Tell my father! Tell him I love cock! Tell him I LOVE taking it up the ass! Tell him how much I love Takano-San! MAN AND ALL! TELL HIM! I'M NOT FUCKIN SCARED!" Onodera yelled as loud as he could to get it through the stubborn thick skull of An. An, who still had her hand on Ritsu's good cheek, slapped it really hard

"Whatever faggot. Your choice. You're disgusting wrong inhuman choice" she said getting up

"It's not disgusting or wrong! IT'S DESTINY! He's back in my life after 10 long years!" Onodera yelled as she was leaving and she shook her head and flipped him off before leaving to go be a tattle-taler

Yokozawa was completely stunned; blown away even. He knew Onodera's father. If that girl told his father about his love for his boss, Onodera's going to be in trouble of some sort. Onodera's father is one of the biggest powers with editing companies… he's also one of the biggest homophobe's in Japan.

'The kid got some guts' Yokozawa thought turning to leave but had wide eyes as he saw Onodera move into a praying position on the ground

"Please… Kami please don't let Takano be hurt… please bring him back to me" Onodera said quietly before getting up to go back to his apartment

'… I hope nothing too drastic happens to Onodera…' Yokozawa stated before heading home as well

The next day, Takano's POV

I'm sitting in the chair waiting for the other editors to give me the manuscripts they are working on. I've worked here for a while and still can't get used to how we can be swamped one second and be on the brink of death from boredom the next. I saw Onodera come in and I saw that he had a bandage patch on his right cheek. My eyes widened at that.

"Onodera… what happened?" I concernedly asked and he avoided eye contact and laughed his nervous embarrassed laugh

"Yeah… well I fell and hit my table last night" he said causing Kisa-San to laugh

"Hahaha, you need to be more careful, you don't want your beautiful face to be all mess up do you?" Kisa asked jokingly flirting and for some reason that did not bother me. Everyone knew Kisa was dating the guy who works at the bookstore down the street. But that doesn't concern me; the only concern I have was for Onodera

I got up and grabbed Onodera by the wrist and dragged him to the bathroom ignoring his protests.

"Wh-what is it you need Takano-San?" Onodera asked again not looking me in the eye and leaned against one of the sinks

"Who wrapped your cheek?" I asked eyeing the bandage and he looked confident for some reason

"Myself" Onodera said apparently proud of himself and I rolled my eyes

"Well that figures" I muttered as the bandages were not neat or wrapped on good enough to stay on

"What does that mean!?" Onodera asked in, maybe, anger? I got the bandages out of the first-aid kit next to us

"It looks like a child's work" I said and Onodera huffed and muttered what sounds like 'bastard'. Well I guess he is right, I did crush his pride in this situation.

I silently got bandages from the first-aid kit located next and started to undo the bandages. I had wide eyes at how bad the bruise was. It was so dark it could be mistaken for the color black

"You idiot be careful. This looks painful" I said as I gently touched it making Onodera flinch and shrug

"Doesn't exactly bother me that much" he said and he looked like he was deep in thought. Something else happened that he's not telling me. But that doesn't concern me right now.

I found myself following temptation as I couldn't help but lean up and gently kiss Onodera's wound and hugged him. This caused him to push me back some and glanced anywhere but my eyes

With a blush he stated "W-we're at work"

Of course we're at work… what was I thinking? Though the thought was true there was slight sarcasm. Even at my place or his, it's wrong in his eyes

Onodera's phone rang and he answered it

"H-hello?" he said obviously still embarrassed by what I did and I couldn't help but smirk.

"A-ah… An-Chan" he said and the smirk on my face fell. Oh… right... his fiancé. Onodera wasn't even talking, it sounded like she did all the talking. Then it sounded like Onodera finally hung up

"What was that about?" I couldn't stop me from asking and he looked to the side and muttered 'n-nothing'

I narrowed my eyes slightly and silently wrapped his cheek up and walked to the door

"Onodera, you have work to finish" I said not intending to sound cold, but it came out that way. Onodera looked stunned and blushed

"Ah, ah, right away!" he said and ran out of the bathroom and I followed him sighing slightly

The man I love with all my heart… is avoiding me again. He doesn't want to even let our eyes meet for a brief second. I figured as much… sigh

Since after that kiss with his lovely 'bride-to be' last night… I figured he would leave whatever we have and… go be with her. Maybe Yokozawa's right… it's not good for me to dwell on the past… but I just

No! Takano stop thinking this way… act professional... we're at work. Just when I started to act and think professionally, Hatori-San walked over with a manuscript

"Takano-San, can you please look over these?" Hatori-San asked and I took them and started to look through the manuscript when Yokozawa came in. I thought he was coming in for me but was definitely surprised when he called for Onodera

"Wh-what is it?" Onodera asked looking to him. I thought he was shocked as well, but… could it be nervousness?

"I need to speak with you alone" Yokozawa said in a tone that I was all too familiar with. Yokozawa has this tone in his voice when something big was up.

"Oh… hai" Onodera said getting up to follow Yokozawa

"Yokozawa, don't keep him too long, we have work" I said and Yokozawa looked to me and nodded… something was definitely up. He never just nods, ever.

I watched them walk right out of our little work area. They were in my sight range but not my hearing range. I was planning on paying attention to both Hatori-San's manuscript and watch Yokozawa and Onodera at the same time

"Fix this" I said pointing to a bland panel on one page, "Make it less boring" I said

"Hai, anything else?" Hatori-San asked and I looked over the rest and in the corner of my eye I could see Yokozawa give Onodera a piece of paper

"Everything else is exceptionally well" I said giving the manuscript to Hatori-San

"Tell Yoshikawa, well done" I said and he bowed and thanked me. I decided not to say anything back and paid full attention on Onodera and Yokozawa.

Onodera was currently reading whatever Yokozawa had given him. He had let his hand holding the paper fall to the side as he covered his eyes with his free hand and looked down. I wondered what's going on. Why was Onodera look like he was sad? It was obviously from what Yokozawa had given him. What did Yokozawa give him?
