having a best friend who spoke the language of music was amazing... but also draining at times, especially when she dragged you all the way to tokyo, misato had liked black stone aka blast... aka her favorite band ever!! since middle school and so had you, thanks to her influencing you of course. it wasn't some big band, just a group of teenagers who did covers and sang their own songs occasionally. there was also trapnest, same deal, different people. that was until trapnest had gotten accepted into a record label in tokyo... unforunate for them their bassist quit, but forunately was ren, blast's bassist they wanted him. he went. it was a hard decision but he had to achieve his dreams.

he left his girl friend nana behind.. the vocalist of blast. his best friend yasu the drummer and his other friend--nana's best friend nobu who played the guitar. soon nana also moved to tokyo, years later, after trapnest went viral. there she met another girl named nana although she went by hachi as a nickname. they became roommates and soon yasu and nobu also moved to tokyo, yasu for law office and nobu.... he just missed his best friend. that was the revival of blast, after nobu convinced nana to continue, hachi put pliers for a new bassists and they fished up shin. he was new to tokyo and a AMAZING bass player, his role model was also ren but no one dared to mention they knew him just yet

the truth about shin he'd never tell anyone was, he was born and raised in sweden, his mother... had abandoned when by taking herself before he could speak, why? well because shin was a affair child... she couldn't handle the guilt, it was obvious shin wasn't her husband's he had european futures along with the japanese from his mom but the palest skin which neither of his parents had. even though his non bio "dad" tried to raise him, he was neglected and hated. so he finally ran away to tokyo. what he didnt expect was... he would meet the kindest woman on the airplane a air hostess... she was nice until she became his bawd, took advantage of him looking for a mother figure in every elder woman. because of her shin didnt know how else to make money and fell deeper and deeper into the hole until he was spending nights at random adult women's houses.

you met him the first time misato dragged you to tokyo, first impressions? he thought you were 19 and tried to offer you his services. you declined and explained how you were 15... a year younger than him, it took him by surprise you looked older and so did he i guess that happened when you're forced to grow up. but unlike shin, you only looked older, didnt behave it.

you were locked up in hachi's room, scrolling through your phone. your brother ren was having a concert you couldn't attend when someone burged in, shin, not even a shirt on. you rolled your eyes letting out a sigh. but you got used to it, he had no where to go so he'd often show up at hachi and nana's or nobu's if no women would let him spend the night... not without free services.

"fan?" he asked staring at your phone which played a trapnest video. you didn't respond watching as the boy laid down next to you, flipping onto his stomach making your breath hitch at the stretch marks on his back. he did say he would deal with sadists but you had never seen him on the verge of bleeding before. something in you just wanted to touch him, not sexually but comfortingly.

"can we stay like this?" you hesitantly asked, you two werent cuddling just laying side by side

"..im all sexed out" he laughed quietly, weak. you knew what he meant, it didn't take a genius to know where he had been all night. he had gotten the wrong idea from your words which is why he desperately tried to change the topic "do you like trapnest?" he asked against pointing to the posters on the wall
