Minna-san, Ritsu turned out even more needy and depressing than I had originally wanted him to.
If his self-hating ramble is somewhat insulting not making sense, then gomenasai.

Title: Green-Eyed Jealousy

Desc: A new editor is hired, and seemingly much...better than Ritsu?

Rating: M (sex scene, needy and rather kinky in it's own way)

The reason for jealousy is either that you want what someone else has, or you despise how better they are than you.
Ritsu was feeling both. The new manga editor Takano had hired was incredibly cute.

He had blonde glistening locks, and sparkling blue eyes. And, to officially become Ritsu's alter ego, he had the exact opposite personality of the tsundere. (1)

Funny, smart, and incredibly, yet adorably, childish was he.

The whole maiden club cooed over him, worshiped him from the tiniest hair on his head to the smallest sole of his shoe.

His name was Kumiko Mizuki. (2)

...and Onodera clearly just wanted to rip the poor male's vocal cords out.

Ritsu hated him down to the last atom in his body. Everything about him made him go widely insane.

Why?

Kumiko was basically an attention seeking whore in his eyes, and he barely made the top charts at all.
What he most despised about him, however, was how much attention he gave Takano.
Each time Ritsu walked into the department, Kumiko was practically drooling over his boss.

Anger shot through his veins each time, and he couldn't help but want to destroy his new co-worker.

'I can't believe Takano lets him practically faint on him...' Onodera thought as he glared at Kumiko. '...perhaps they have a profound bond?'

...then again, now that Ritsu thought about it, Takano hadn't spoken to him much outside of work since Kumiko got here. Much less made any sexual advances...perhaps, he was already releasing his sexual tension with...?

'W-What?! No!' Onodera's mind shrieked. "H-He would never...! W-Well, not that I know he would...'cause, you know, he said he's not a player...n-not that we're going out anyway!'

Anger and complete abandonment began to pile in his chest. If he hadn't currently been at work, he would have cried.

'...is he going out with him?' his mind asked again. 'It's none of my business, b-but are they...? N-Not that I have a problem, Takano-san can do whatever he likes!'

Following that, he lowered his head slightly trying to cover up the fact that he was almost ready to cry...

'...all I need to do is copy these pages, and I'll be home free.' he thought to himself.

Though, as his hand moved to press the blue print button, another hand went up and pressed it for him.

"Huh?"

"You know, you could just tell me you're going to avoid me."

The tsundere slightly blushed, and hid his face again. He gritted his teeth and looked up to respond with a wavering, angry voice.

"W-Why would I be avoiding you?" he tried, cursing himself for stammering.

"You answer that question yourself."

A third copy came out, and a loud high-pitched cough was heard from behind them.

"Huh...?"

Kumiko.

"Takano-kuuuun!" the male squealed. "I finished getting these papers you wanted copy, here they arrrre!

"Thank you, Mizuki." Takano nodded indifferently. "Now all we need is Onodera's and we'll be done."

At that moment- Ritsu later prayed thanks to heaven -the final copy came out. He pulled it into the stack, and straightened it.

"Here you go..." his voice quavered slightly. "I'm done with work today, I'll be heading home. See you both tomorrow..."

He grabbed his coat, bag on his shoulder, and hid his face as he walked past Takano to the door.

His descent was slow, yet, he didn't care. Sleeping late would cause him to wake up late, making him appear to work late. If he got in late tomorrow, perhaps someone would finally fire him. Takano would be proven right, that he was useless, and he'd be able to move. After that, he could live his life.

"I'd be gone, nothing to hold Takano back from Kumiko..." he mumbled under his breath. "...though I'm pretty sure it didn't matter when I was there."

A small drop of something wet fell on his nose at that instance.

"Oh." he said, face indifferent. "It's raining."

Everyone else was running frantically to get to nice and dry places, while Ritsu slowly sat down on the sidewalk and tried not to cry.

"Fucking baka." he hissed, he bag next to him. "I hope I get pneumonia."

"Hey!"

He almost jumped in surprise. Looking up slightly, he saw a concerned and slightly angry-looking Takano under an umbrella.

"Don't just leave work without me, got it?" the taller male smirked, putting out a hand to lift him up. "Baka."

"..."

Silence fell and Ritsu stared at Takano and his hand, unable to comprehend what he was seeing.
Surely Takano had another male to have his fun with now, why was he being kind to him as well?

After a moment longer, the silence became unbearable, and Takano lifted the male up himself, pulling him close.

"You're such a pain." Takano sighed, lifting him up with one arm so that Ritsu was straddling him and letting him rest on his shoulder.

Shocked, but not entirely displeased, Ritsu hesitantly put his arms around Takano's neck.

They continued the walk home, comfortable silence in Ritsu's mind.

Ritsu took a quick shower, and fell onto his bed.
He wanted to cry so badly, but he knew it would ever happen. His body wasn't accustomed to it and tears just refused to flow.
Plus, Takano refused to leave.

"Well, after you explain why you were sitting there like a homeless hobo." he said. "And why have you been acting strange this week I thought it'd be better now that Kumiko-"

Ritsu flinched at the mention of the male's name, and Takano definitely caught it.

"...came to work with us."

He raised an eyebrow, and slowly sat himself next to his exhausted and trembling lover.

"...Ritsu?"

Onodera froze, and he got up slightly. Raising his head, he looked away and began to frantically speak, as if unable to contain himself.

"W-Well, Kumiko is a wonderful worker a-and I think he would be able to handle so much more, in fact, maybe he could even take my job!"

Takano's eyes widened, and he stared at the tearing up eyes of his lover.

"Ritsu?"

"C-Cause he is so much better at it, a-and he can do so much more, plus you like him so h-he can get along with everyone a-and..."

"Ritsu."

"And he'll be t-the perfect replacement, since I'm obviously n-not that much w-worth in the department, s-so-"

"Ritsu!"

The brunette was surprised by Takano almost instantly wrapping his arms around him. Tears still fresh in his eyes, he heard Takano whisper soothing words in his ear.

"What the hell would ever make you think that?" the raven haired man pulled away, his forehead against Ritsu's. "I've heard of jealousy, but, you shouldn't let it take you this far."

"I-I'm not jealous." Ritsu looked down, squirming.

Takano smirked, knowing full well the truth.

"Ritsu, you're such a horrible liar." he hissed seductively in his ear.

Biting the nape of his neck slightly, he emitted a stifled moan from his lover's mouth.

"This wasn't all just work related, was it?" Takano whispered, kissing his way up to the ear lobe, biting it lightly. "It has something to do with me as well."

Ritsu frantically shook his head, looking away in an attempt to ground himself.

"You idiot," Takano smiled, "by now I'd think it'd be clear that I love only you."

"M-Me the idiot?" Ritsu helplessly scoffed as Takano pushed him down on the bed. "Says the stubborn one who won't accept the fact that don't..."

The words he had been about to say lodged themselves in his throat, and each breath came ragged. Clearly he couldn't tell a lie right now...even if he thought it was the truth.

"...finish your sentence, Onodera." Takano blowed on his ear lightly, a shiver running up Ritsu's spine. "What were you going to say...?"

Onodera looked away, blushing profusely. No words but the truth would be able to come out of his mouth.

"I.." he gulped, unable to contain the fact he was near tears. "I lo..."

Takano smirked, watching his poor lover squirm under him.

"I love you..." he whispered, his hands travelling down to the button of his pants...

"H-Hey, wait a minute- Ahn!"

A moan shot itself out of Ritsu's throat, and he covered his mouth to try to muffle it.

"That was new." Takano smirked, rubbing along the hardening length. "And I see you most likely haven't masturbated in a while..."

"Th-That's none of y-your...Nghhh..."

It was impossible to speak, he hands having to cover his mouth every few seconds to muffle the guilty pleasured noise.

"Oh, but it is my business." Takano growled, lowering his head as if teasing Ritsu with the fact that he could almost instantly take his pleading erection in his mouth. "After all, I am in charge of your health, including sexual frustration."

"What is that suppose to- Nahn!"

The damn bastard hadn't even let Ritsu finish his sentence and he was already sucking him off harshly. Ritsu pulled at his hair, throwing his head back against the soft cushions.

"T-Takano-saaaahn!"

"Come for me, Ritsu, I want to see you break."

In a flash of white pleasure, Ritsu came, and he distinctively heard Takano swallow it up entirely, and a swallowing noise.
Panting, he slowly opened his eyes, and saw Takano using the left over cum as lube for his fingers.

"Relax, Ritsu..." he whispered, pushing in one finger and feeling around.

Onodera squirmed slightly at the uncomfortable finger inside him, but stayed still in attempts to deny how much he wanted it.

Takano added a second finger after a while, and this time Ritsu emitted a whimper.

"Shhh..." Takano soothed, kissing his neck slowly to calm him down.

A third finger was added, and Ritsu suddenly felt a rush of pleasure in him.
He quickly tried to deny it, but the feeling of Takano's fingers brushing against his prostate was an undeniably craving.
He held his control a few more seconds, but when Takano thrust his fingers against that spot once more, his hips bucked up in a silent pleading.

"Found it."

Ritsu suddenly couldn't take it. Tears began to flow from his eyes, not of sadness, but of need. He threw his arms around Takano's neck, and caught the male by surprise.

"I can't take it anymore!" he sobbed. "I love you, okay?! I love you, and I hate that I do! Just fuck me already! Fuck me, love me, and never let me go, cause I wouldn't be able to live without you! Please, Takano-san!"

That made the older man snap. Takano still had his complete composure, but, he didn't even lube himself up. Pulling his pants and briefs off, he practically thrust right in. Ritsu cried out in relief and pleading to be fucked into senseless oblivion. His brain was screaming at him to stop, to hide the pleasure that Takano caused him to give into. But he couldn't, it was too late. Takano was thrusting in a hard rhythm into him, and he was begging him to go harder. Faster.

Make me break, Takano. Make me break...

And that he did.
Because in exactly five thrusts after that thought, Ritsu saw white.
He came, hard and fast, satisfaction clear on his face.

Takano, however, continued to thrust into him harshly.
Everything stopped, and Ritsu couldn't breathe.

No more, no more. Takano, I'm gonna break...no more, no more...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhn!"

Noises kept echoing throughout the room, and Ritsu continued to orgasm.
Takano still kept it all in, somehow, and Ritsu couldn't even question it.

And yet again, he came.
Painfully and wantonly (3). He sobbed in pleasure and couldn't help but accept the fact that he loved it. He loved having Takano's cock in him.

Suddenly, Takano thrust in once, and froze.
Ritsu knew what was coming, so he closed his eyes and brace himself...

Warm, white liquid filled him to the brim, and he shrieked.

They stayed there, panting.

It took a moment for Ritsu to realize that neither of them had taken their shirts off throughout the intercourse, yet, he didn't care.

"...wow." Takano sighed. "Damn, that was amazing."

"...I can say the...same." Ritsu panted.

Takano pulled out, slightly disappointing Ritsu at the loss.

Both snuggled up to each other, sleepiness slowly taking them.
Though, before closing their eyes, Ritsu heard Takano chuckled.

"What's so funny...?" he yawned.

"This all happened because you were jealous." Takano chuckled. "Maybe I should keep hiring well-liked editors...?"

Ritsu scowled, which caused Takano to smile.

"I love you..."

And they both fell asleep in each others arms.
