Oh, so this is absolutely amazing. I love the way you portrayed both of them, and Nino's little confession "you may take me out to dinner" always the cheapskate isn't he? And the massive amounts of denial that Nino was in throughout this was absolutely wonderful. Aiba's bubbly persona is something that can shatter pretty much anyone's resolve and seeing Nino's walls breaking down and the realization come to him was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
