Nino picks up the pace, so Ohno does, too. He’s only vaguely glad that the path leading to where the cars are parked is dark, hesitating only for a moment before he is catching up on Nino and and is grabbing Nino’s elbow before tugging Nino in.

“What the -” Nino says, when Ohno turns him around, tightening his fingers around Nino’s wrist when Nino tries to wriggle free. “Leader, let go of me.” Nino grits.

“Nino, please,” he counters, frowning. “Can we…can we talk this out?” he asks. Nino barely blinks, but his stance is stiff and his jaw remains tightly clenched.

“I mean it, I want to - please, let’s…let’s talk. Please.”

The look on Nino’s face remains cold and passive. “Oh, now you want to talk? Really?”

Ohno hesitantly lets Nino’s hand go in favor of stepping closer. He knows he’s at fault here, and apologies mean nothing if he can’t trust himself not to hurt Nino like that again.

“Please, I -”

“Do you really think I can do that to you, Satoshi?” Nino asks, his voice thin and coated with emotion Ohno couldn’t stand to hear. “I’ll cut my own dick first, you hear me? I’ll do it, I swear I will.”

“Nino, it’s not what you think -”

“No, it’s exactly what I think it is, Oh-chan!” Nino counters, not giving him the chance to preempt the younger man. “She means nothing to me, how many times do I have to tell you that? This is not the first time, for fuck’s sake! And I’m tired. I’m tired of repeating the same thing over and over again! Why can’t you just fucking trust me like I trust you?” Nino continues, stepping forward until the tips of their shoes are touching.

“You need to work with me on this, Oh-chan,” Nino says, jabbing his fingers into Ohno’s chest weakly. He looks tired and sounded like it, too, and the pathetic feeling inside Ohno grows. “If you love me, you’re going to have to learn to trust me, okay? God, but you must know there’s only you. There’s no one else, okay? What else do you want me to say? A confession? I already gave you one, yes? What else? Do you like to hear me say that I can’t fucking get it up if it’s not you? That my dick’s useless if it’s not you touching me? Is that it? Is that what you need, Oh-chan? Tell me and I’ll do it. Tell me what else you want from me and I’ll -”

“I love you,” Ohno finds himself murmuring, catching Nino around the waist and pulling him, mouth meeting Nino’s own for a hard kiss. “I love you so much. I love you.” he repeats, hoping it’s enough as an apology.

Nino says nothing but he allows himself to be kissed, fingers tight against the front of Ohno’s shirt as if he can’t let go, either.
