CHAPTER 1, CHAPTER 2
Chapter 3
Relief flooded Daiki when he finally got back to his room. He gulped and inhaled a deep breath of air. Spending time with Takaki left him feeling exhausted and breathless. Crazy feelings swirled in his stomach, desire mixing with unease and he fears this feelings.
He couldn’t understand why he’s experiencing these feelings now. What’s the difference between working with Takaki in Japan and working with him here? They had never met outside the office. In fact everything was so different. Even Takaki was different. Takaki never orders him to do things. He never gets mad at him. He only looks gently and caring, it seems like Takaki is becoming more human. Unlike before when he got his stoic face and always ordering Daiki around.
Daiki always controlled his feelings, he’s hidden behind the mask not to let others see the true vulnerable him, but with Takaki it’s different. It seems like he wants to remove the mask that Daiki’s wearing. Takaki had shown interest in him when no people beside his mother bother to have. The mask he always wears began slipping when he’s with Takaki. A few kind words, as desire to get to know him, and something inside sprung into Daiki’s life. An amazing new life that both scare and excite her.
As he showered Daiki wished with all his heart that he had been able to get out of this conference. Takaki could quite easily have managed without him. All the arrangements had been made the paperwork was done, there was nothing that Takaki needed that he hadn’t got. Daiki seen to everything.
He found his self scrubbing his body more than necessary thinking if he can disappear like that, but intelligent he is, he knows it’s impossible, he even can’t erase Takaki in his mind. Takaki Yuya was not a man that anyone could forget easily, and Takaki fill everything in his head.
He remembered that he dreamed about Takaki on his first day at the office. He dreamed that Takaki is touching him erotically, claiming his lips and taking his virginity. The moment he woke up that time, he began to think that he’s working for a devil because Takaki is one by one getting his sanity. He told his mother that he’s working for a devil but he didn’t tell the reason why. His mother just shrugged with his son’s weirdness.
He began to think about ill-mannered things to Takaki just to prevent him from falling more to him, but everything back-fired because now he’s falling to the gentle and caring Takaki Yuya. He erased his thought and continued to shower peacefully.
Dressing for dinner, Daiki chose the pants from his boring dark suits, teaming it with a light blue v-neck shirt. His mother bought that shirt for him last Christmas, but he only worn it once, feeling that it was too bright to wear for work though his mother said he looks adorably cute in it.
When he walked into the dining room, every eye turned in his direction but only one person caught his attention, it was Takaki, Takaki is watching each step that he took.
“You look adorable,” Takaki said softly as he stood to hold out a chair for Daiki to sit. “Blue suits you. You should wear it more often.”
Daiki smiled as his thanks, not trusting his voice. Takaki looked particularly handsome too, in a handmade navy suit and a pale blue silk shirt. Takaki’s cologne tickling his nostril and serving like an aphrodisiac to him. When Takaki’s hand touched his shoulder, when it lingered longer than necessary, he felt a shiver of sheer pleasure run all the way down to the tips of his toes.
“You smell divine, Daiki.” Takaki whispered sexily on Daiki’s ear.
‘So do you’, Daiki wanted to say but couldn’t dare to, it would be far too intimate. He wasn’t sure if Takaki will like if Daiki will compliment him, not here, not with so many eyes on them. He was relieved when the waiter placed a napkin on his lap and handed the menu to him. Now he could breathe! Except that every breath he drew seems to bring him nearer to Takaki, and when he stole a glance at Takaki from beneath his lashes he saw that instead of studying his own menu, Takaki was watching him.
“What’s wrong?” Daiki asked, trying to make a light of it, which was practically impossible when his heart has just leap. “Do I have a spot on my nose?”
“Your nose is delightful. It’s a very kissable nose.”
Daiki’s eyes widened in shock.
“You don’t like compliments, Daiki?”
The truth was that he’s not used to compliments. What made his nose kissable, anyway? It’s just a nose. He didn’t answer Takaki’s question.
“Like your lips.
Daiki refused to listen. He didn’t even look to Takaki anymore. He concentrated at the menu instead, ignoring the fact that his stupid pulse had begun to race again and heat prickling his skin. One of his downfalls was the way he blushed so easily, and he prays that his cheeks did not color now.
Even when their order was placed, there was no escape. There was just the two of them. For no reason at all everyone else had faded into the background. Wine was poured and Takaki proposed a toast. “To my most efficient PA, long may continue you to work for me.”
Daiki couldn’t drag his eyes away from Takaki., He had never really noticed before how lovely his lashes were, or how black of his eyes seemed to change color depending on his mood. Takaki’s eyes held an expression that he could not read but it seems like it’s sparkling while looking at him.
He’s thinking that something is happening to him here in this country, in this hotel, in his seat. It was as though all his painful past is being erased by on look in Takaki’s eyes. Memories were fading and something far more exciting was taking over. It was transitory thing, he knew, but it would surely be foolish not to make most of it.
Takaki made him feel as though they were the only two people in the room, commanding him attention a way that everything except him had disappeared. It was a new experience. One that she would treasure when they got back home and everything returned to normal.
He took a sip of his wine and smiled shyly at Takaki. “You’re very kind.”
“It’s no more than the truth.”
“I enjoy the job.”
“And are you also enjoying the conference?”
Daiki nodded. “I’ve never attended anything like this before, and I have to confess I was a little nervous, but, yes, I’m enjoying myself.” ‘Expect when you paid too much attention to me’ Daiki wants to add.
“Every man and woman here envies me. And why not, when a very beautiful, adorable and cute man like you is with me.”
This time Daiki really blushed. “It’s really very kind of you to say so.”
In response Takaki simple gave him a smile that caused Daiki to have his heart beat for more.
The waiter returned with their food and Daiki was glad of that. It gave him time to take a few deep breaths and tell his self that he should calm. Takaki flattering him is a joyful experience, not scary. Somehow it worked. Gradually he began to relax and enjoy the evening. He drank more wine than usual, unaware that his eyes were brighter and his cheeks flushed with happiness. They talked incessantly, and Daiki laugh at loud with their talks.
It was not until meal when Takaki passed an envelope and watched his face closely as he opened it, he was suddenly stuck for words. Inside were tickets for the opera show the following night. Daiki blinked twice and swallowed the sudden lump in his throat.
“Think of it as a thank you gift from me to you for all the hard work you’ve put in” Takaki said watching the changing expression on Daiki’s face.
“I-I don’t know what to say. I didn’t expect it. I didn’t think that you would be able to.”
“But you are pleased?” Takaki looked suddenly anxious, not something he usually did. “And hopefully a little excited?”
“Yes, but..”
“But nothing Daiki” Takaki said, his voice firm now. “All I want is for you to enjoy it.”
Privately Daiki doubted whether he would remember anything of the opera. Sitting here talking to him when room was filled with other people was one thing, but going to the theater, seated so close that their bodies would touch, when there would be no escape, was another.
Daiki would be far too aware of Takaki, of emotions he was amazingly managing to arouse to him. Alien feelings that sometimes made him feel happy and at others scare him.
Admittedly he was beginning to feel more at ease with him. Takaki had never done or said anything to alarm him. Takaki was in fact always a perfect gentleman, so perhaps, he was worrying for nothing. It was just not he was not used to being treated so kindly. To have Takaki make this generous gesture brought a lump to his throat and tears to his eyes.
Immediately Takaki frowned. “Now what’s wrong? You’re still not happy?”
“Of course I’m happy. It’s just that no one else ever done anything like this for me before.”
Takaki reached across the table and took Daiki’s hand, enclosing it gently with his other one. “That is such is such a pity. You’re very special person Daiki, and you should be treated accordingly.”
Takaki’s sympathy, the look of compassion in his eyes, completely overwhelmed Daiki, and it was a big struggle to control his tears. He swallowed hard and smiled.
“I’m being silly. I’m sorry.”
Takaki lifted Daiki’s hand to his lips. “I’m the one who is sorry. Sorry that you haven’t enjoy the pleasures that a wonderful person like you should, but now I think it’s time we retired to our rooms.”
Before Daiki made a complete fool of his self in front of everyone, that what Takaki was saying. Daiki smiled weakly and allowed Takaki to take his elbow and lead him upstairs.
