Yuto froze in his place. He gulped many times and without him realized, his tears fell. Daiki, who saw him suddenly left everything he did and stoned beside Yuto when he saw the recording.

One by one all the members joined them, and all of them didn’t say anything when finally Yuto stopped the video.

“Tell me that it’s just a practice for their drama.” Daiki almost mumbled the question but everybody could hear him clearly.

“No one of them is doing any drama right now.” Chinen was still staring at the camera even when Yuto had put it on the table near them.

No one talked again after that. They just kept silent and doing everything slowly, like afraid that they would disturbed anyone else. Like someone would be hurt if they did anything with a loud voice. The room felt suffocated and rather hard to breathe for them.

Yabu closed his eyes and ducked.

“Why don’t you say anything? I’ve told you before that you can trust me. I don’t mind of you being a gay.”

The door opened and everybody could see clearly the very gloomy Takaki entered. He didn’t say anything. He just gathered his things without a word.

“I’m sorry, I’m leaving.”

“Yuya!” Chinen suddenly called him, a little too loud than he used to, almost startled some of the members, but no one gave him any complaint. “There’s a new flavor in ... “

“I’m sorry, I’m very tired. I just want to go straight to home. See you.”

Takaki turned over and almost stumbled on Yamada by the door. They didn’t say anything. Not even a sorry. Takaki just walked away and Yamada entered the room in silent. Everybody could see clearly the trace of tears on his face.

“Ryosuke, are you okay? You look very tired.” Okamoto approached him and stroked his back gently.

“I’m fine.”

Just a short answer but full of silent cry in it. A tear dropped but he hurriedly wiped it.

“I’ll drive you home.” Okamoto grabbed his bag and almost dragged Yamada out of the room, prevented him to reject his offer.

No one talk after their leaving. Yuto took his camera and put it in his bag.

“Listen,” Daiki tried to break the ice. “I don’t know about you, but I ..., we should ask them about this."

No one answered him. They stared at each other in silent, didn’t know how to respond Daiki. More like afraid of showing their true feeling about Takaki and Yamada.

“What do you mean?”

Chinen ventured to speak out while glancing carefully to his friends. He tried to find any silent rejection but found nothing. No one of them looked disgusted with the news.

“We should ask them about ..., it.” Daiki tilted his head and looked around to his friends. “About their relationship. Are they really together? How long have they been together, I mean, how come they overcome their feeling. I mean, they hid it from us. They acted like there’s nothing between them. Is it true that they are ..., dating?”

“I disagree.” Yuto suddenly voiced out his mind. He gulped and looked at Daiki intently. “I will support Ryosuke for whatever he chose.”

“What?” Daiki gaped at the proclamation.

“Yes. You may hate me, I don’t care. Love is something you can’t decide with logic. Once your heart attached to something, or someone, it will hurt like hell if you have to reject it and try to forget it. So ...,” Yuto looked around. “I will support them for whatever it takes. I don’t care about what anyone else will say about me. I don’t care even if you hate me because of this, I will still let them together. I will protect them.”

“Are you crazy? We’re talking about our future, Yuto.”

“Call me crazy, I don’t care. Let them together. As long as nobody found this, we’re going to be just fine. Let this slide away like the wind blows. I will erase the file, and let’s forget that we saw it. We didn’t know anything. We don’t know anything.”

“It’s a big no.” Daiki insisted.

“Can’t we just let them be?” Inoo turned to him, almost annoyed with Daiki’s stubbornness. “They hid it. I don’t know for who knows how long. They pretended that they’re normal. They suppressed their feeling for who knows how long. They tried hard to cover their hurt of being busted by everybody. Can’t we just ... “

“We can’t, Inoo-Chan. We can’t do that.”

Everybody looked at Daiki and silenced with his seriousness.

“We can’t let this slide away. We have to think about this seriously. Our job is in the line. Once the media caught this, we’re done. Once Johnny found this, we’re done. Whoever outside JUMP found this, we’re done.”

Yabu sighed heavily and stood up. He didn’t say anything and just walked away outside the room.

Inoo followed him in silent.

“Guys, we really need to talk about this.”

Nobody answered him and just walked away, left Daiki gaped in disbelief.

“This is a heavy thing so let’s think about this later.”

Daiki turned to Hikaru who grabbed his bag and started to walk.

“Wait!” Daiki grabbed his arm. “Because this is a heavy thing, so let’s discuss about this now. The sooner we solve the problem, the sooner we save our life.”

Hikaru chuckled lightly, almost feeling silly with what Daiki had said. “Save our life?”

“Our job is in the line. Once anybody outside found this, JUMP will over. So let’s talk about this now.”

“Daiki, you’re scary.”

Daiki stunned and let Hikaru’s arm go. “What?” He asked him in wonder.

Hikaru sighed. “You’re the closest one to Yamada. How can you put aside his feeling and just think about yourself?”

“What?” Daiki chuckled lightly. “I’m not thinking about myself. I’m thinking about us. All of us.”

Hikaru shook his head in disbelief and walked away, leaving Daiki who still gaped in his place.
