Chapter Four: Interviews and Promises

Izumi's P.O.V.

Hiro moved into my place a week after we got back. I didn't mind all that much. Rei came over often and we hung out like we normally did. But, that incident still hung in the air for those two. No matter how hard I tried, those two were less willing to hang out with each other alone. Because of this, I was dragged with them to interviews and jobs more often.

"So, Izumi, people want to know, does the new cute idol have a lover?" The interviewer asked.

"I do actually." I smile kindly, my face turning pink.

"Who do you think has the stronger feelings?" The interviewer joked, probably expecting me to say myself.

"Honestly, while I like them a lot, and want to be with them, they have the stronger feelings. I'm almost afraid my own feelings won't be able to catch up." I say honestly.

"What makes you say that?" She questions. I was really glad the two boys weren't out here yet.

"Well, they have on more than one occasion said they loved me, they treat me like I'm fragile and they want to protect me. I'm glad to have them in my live, but I feel like I'll just weight them down if my feelings don't catch up." I admit.

"This person, Izumi, are you gay?" She asked.

"No, but, he's the exception. I've always been interested in girls, and he just happens to be the only guy I like." I admit.

"So, what if a girl were to tell you the same things he did?" She questions. I didn't notice Rei and Hiro appear nearby.

"Even if a girl were to say the same words he did, he is one of the people I trust, with my heart and everything. I feel ridiculous saying something like this, but, my heart flutters ridiculously when I'm around him, no one an make me feel that way." I admit with a blush.

"But you're still not going to tell us who he is?" She pouted.

"No. But my love life is my own business." The two walked in then and plopped on opposite sides of me.

"Such a heart warming speech. You should tell him that yourself." Rei joked.

"I will kick you." I threatened.

"Still as aggressive as ever." Hiro teased.

"If you even mention amusement parks to him though, he turns into a kid." Rei informs.

"Yet, he can really hold his liquor. He never gets drunk." Hiro says.

"The few times he has actually been drunk were quite scary. He becomes quiet and will just sit there, staring, unmoving." Rei shivered.

"Who's fault was it again? If I recall, you two wanted to see what I was like drunk, and mixed alcohol into my soda." I scolded.

"We did apologize." Rei kinda looked scared.

"Rei is an emotional drunk, while Hiro is a clumsy drunk." I inform.

"You three are close. Do you know who Izumi is dating?" The interviewer questions.

"We do. But, we don't plan on saying." Rei informs.

"Yeah. All three of our families know, and a few friends." Hiro adds.

"Why do all your families know?" The interviewer asked.

"Izumi started dating this person a little over a week ago. All three of us were at a family reunion that involved my family, Rei's family, and Izumi's family. We also invite a decent chunk of friends." Hiro informs.

"Ah, but they confessed to me long before the reunion." I remind.

"Anyways, what are the other two idols relationship status?" The interviewer questions.

"Single." Rei said with a smile. "And I've given up on who Hiro and I were fighting over. So, it's time for me to find someone else to love." Rei said sadly.

"We're rooting for you." Hiro smiles kindly.

"What about you Hiro?" She questions.

"I am dating someone. The cutest little thing around." Hiro gushed.

"You're so lucky." Rei frowned.

"So, when did you get together. Not to long ago, you were single." The interviewer prodded.

"Well, I kissed them first, a complete accident the first time, then they kissed me a few weeks later. So, around the same time we went to family reunion. How many people showed up this year?" I question Izumi.

"One hundred and twelve. Most stayed at hotels." I inform.

"So, both you and Izumi found someone at this reunion? How come you didn't Rei?" She questions.

"It just wasn't time for me to find someone I guess. But I discovered that my older brother is an asshole." Rei comments.

"Everyone can agree on that." I snort.

"Asshole doesn't even begin to describe Urie." Hiro growled a bit.

"Why do you hate Rei's brother so much?" She asked us.

"Many reasons." I comment.

"Womanizer is a big one. But he attacked the person I love." Hiro informed.

"If it wasn't for Rei, who knows what would've happened." I inform. Rei only sighed.

"I hope we can wrap up this interview soon, it's an honor to be here, but, things are kinda hectic right now." I say sadly.

"Well, it was a pleasure to have you on the show. Izumi, I wish you luck with your lover." I nodded and the three of us left as a group.

"Tomorrow is our day off, so I'm going to go hang with some friends from high school. You two should go on a date." Rei suggests with a small smile.

"Rei, we're all still best friends, and I told you I forgave you for the incident, why are you pushing away?" I question.

"If I'm going to fall in love with someone else, being near the person I was in love with for all my life won't help me." Rei informed. "Don't worry though, once I get over it, I'll come back more often. But for now, I'm letting you two have your space. See you around Izumi." Rei Ruffles my hair and left, catching a cab.

"Let's go home Izumi." Hiro smiled.

"Yeah, lets." We walked all the way home and when we got back, I went to the kitchen to cook up something to eat. And, my apron was bright pink with a bunch of laces, thank the two idiots I call my best friends. "I'm going to make some Spaghetti for dinner, that alright?"

"Yeah. Anything you cook for me ends up being delicious." I hear Hiro call from God knows where.

Hiro's P.O.V.

I love living with Izumi, I get to hug him whenever I want, and we kiss sometimes. But, my restraint is wearing thin, I'm afraid I might pounce him, and I don't want that. I don't want to scare him away, not when he's finally starting to slowly return my feelings. We have to take it slow.

"Dinner is served." A plate was put in front of me, a steaming hot plate of noodles with ripe red tomato sauce poured on top, with Parmesan sprinkled over it. It sounds better than it actually is when I described it that way; but I'm always happy to eat what Izumi makes for me.

"Looks good. Thank you! I'll make dinner tomorrow." I inform.

"That's would be great." I was about to eat, when Izumi quickly kissed me. He was so innocent, and I loved that about him. Even though I have never kissed anyone, nor have I ever had sex with anyone, I still don't deem myself innocent. The thoughts I have about him are quite dirty.

"Thank you for the meal." I say after we finished eating.

"No problem." We cleaned up and walked over to the couch, turning on the TV. We watched Netflix all the time, there was no chill about it, even if we were chilling. We just laid there, watching whatever.

"Want to cuddle?" I ask Izumi. He was shivering slightly, even though he was hogging the blanket. He simply nodded and crawled over, laying against me. I wrapped my arms around him and kissed the top of his head.

"You're warm." Izumi purred, his eyes closing to embrace the warmth.

"And you're freezing. I'll warm you up." I joke, kissing all over his face.

"Stop that." Izumi was blushing.

"Fine. I don't want to upset you." I kiss the top and f his head again and settle back, holding him close.

"Hiro, can you promise me something?" Izumi questions.

"What is it?" He fidgeted before looking up at me.

"Promise you'll wait for my feelings to catch up? 'Cause I know you want to go farther than what we're doing now, but, I'm not ready, I want to wait until I can say that I love you. But, I can't yet. So please, can you wait for me?" He asked softly.

"I promise. I've waited twenty one years, I can wait longer; besides, I'm not loosing you just after I got you. So, yes, I promise to wait until your feeling catch up." He smiled at my words and pecked my lips, cuddling up to me and closing his eyes. I love him.
