I was really bored at night
Part 6!
When they return from vacation, they have to go back to work. Ron doesn't mind it much, after all, it only gets him closer to his goal, while Toto feels a vague anxiety.
They work together again on another issue of the magazine, taking photos for the cover and recording interviews. Toto knows full well that this issue will bring him profit, but anxiety still eats away at him from the inside.
However, after finishing their joint work, they do not see each other for some time. In addition to the main magazine, Toto's publishing house is busy releasing a lot of third-party products, the preparation and approval of the layouts of which takes a lot of effort and requires his presence at work. Ron, on the other hand, is busy with family problems.
Thus, an entire week passes, which feels like an eternity. Separated from each other, their days turn into a monotonous gray mess. Toto's office is too quiet and empty without the overly active Ron. Ron's office smells damp again, and the kuromitsu does not bring a drop of joy.
Finally meeting, they feel joy as from the very first meeting. They do not have enough time, nor air in their lungs to tell absolutely everything that has accumulated over this week. Suddenly it turns out that the whole night is not enough to stop so desperately reaching for a kiss on the lips opposite.
These turn out to be the most calm and carefree days in their lives, because when the issue of the magazine with Ron comes out, the publishing house, under the auspices of the M family, does not stand aside. Now they openly enter this war.
Toto first saw Rona in court, during his internship. He couldn't help but be fascinated by him - so confident and handsome, arguing with the judge and the prosecutor, seemingly unafraid of anything. Toto had always lacked this - confidence in his own words, even if he knew they were all true and he had evidence. That's why he saw in Ron the missing part of himself. After finishing his studies, he didn't even ask himself where he wanted to go. The choice was obvious. Toto dreamed of working with Ron, he was ready to do any dirty work, just to be useful to the man who in his eyes was the ideal of a lawyer's work.
However, his rose-colored glasses quickly fell off, shattering into pieces, when on the very first day in the office, on the door of which there was a sign with the beautiful name "Ron Kamonohashi", he was met not by a stately brunette, with beautifully combed hair and a straight back, but by a misunderstanding that hardly resembled a person. Toto was horrified when he realized that this was the same person who made him a couple of years ago convinced himself of the correctness of his choice of profession.
Despite the fact that Ron initially did not recognize him and almost threw him out of his office because he did not need assistants, Toto suddenly turned out to be useful when he immediately found an important detail in the papers Ron had dug through a thousand times, which instantly changed the tactics of his client's defense in court. And it was wonderful.
They complemented each other perfectly. Toto could always find the necessary details that Ron put together. It was surprising how easily they got along after some time. And even though Toto now had to be both a lawyer's assistant and a psychological support point for Ron's clients (who left his consultation with at least a twitching eye), he was sincerely happy with this cooperation.
After all, at least in court he could still see his neatly combed hair...
In court, Toto quickly became a respected figure when everyone around him realized that he was the only one who could shut Ron up. And although Toto often spoke out loud without realizing it, sometimes even things that definitely shouldn't have been said, he was the one who knew when Ron should stop talking so as not to get into trouble.
And after this, this bastard complains that the documents are not ready for court... for those who are waiting for the continuation of my old money au: I will definitely try to finish the next part soon, the upcoming exams are taking too much energy((
i thought we all need rontoto version of TV girl reference
UPDATE suddenly made a video version
Wedding bells are ringing nearby...
The whole city in your heart, Toto... Is there even one star shining for me?
Crying because I love how beautiful and soft your art style is. Don't ever stop drawing them. I love your art so much.
Sorry for the late reply(( Thank you very much for these words! Seriously, I couldn't stop smiling while reading your message. And, of course, this gives me even more motivation to work further! Thank you again and here are the silly rontoto for you <3
Toto can trust him, Ron definitely knows a thing or two about disguise!
I also believe that if they had a son, he would be the spitting image of Ron and that's funny
looks like someone will be sleeping on the couch after this
Deer Ron and Lamb Toto
my poor baby Toto
Can't skip rontoto week
Part 5!! Things are going well. Magazines are selling, things are getting better for Toto and Ron. Ron offers Toto a little rest - to go for a week to the country house he inherited from his father. Toto certainly doesn't refuse. They spend a whole week alone together, far from the bustle of the city, from work and responsibilities. They both sincerely enjoy every moment spent together. They literally do not leave each other's side the whole time, as if trying to satisfy all the tactile hunger accumulated over their entire lives. They swim in the pool, play billiards (or rather, Toto plays, while Ron desperately tries to snatch at least one more kiss from him). In the morning, they push each other in the kitchen, preparing breakfast. It is at this moment that Toto realizes how great Ron's obsession with kuromitsu is and desperately tries to save his food from him. In the evening, they read books out loud together, constantly arguing about the characters and the plot. Ron realized for the first time how pleasant it was to return to a warm bed. Toto looked at his reflection in someone else's shining eyes for the first time.
"Love is our legacy," Ron said.
Toto nodded, still looking into his eyes. "All that will be left of us is love," he closed his eyes, resting his chin on his folded hands on the pillow. Ron nodded back. A sharp pang of regret stabbed inside his heart. "That's a bittersweet thought, don't you think?" he said, reaching his hand up to Toto's forehead, brushing away the fallen strands of hair with a soft, gentle touch.
Toto didn't even flinch when he felt Ron's hot hands touching him. He shook his head with a sad smile. "Everything about love is always bittersweet," he opened his eyes and finally looked at Ron. His gaze expressed calm, and with it the same bitterness, the same regret that settled inside Ron. And neither of them knew the reason for such feelings. "Neither you nor I have had the opportunity to know what true love is. And all we have is this small bedroom. But right now we are talking about love, and I have no regrets that I am lying with you in this bed and not somewhere else," he said this and the smile suddenly disappeared from his face, seriousness appeared in his eyes. "Maybe this is the closest we've ever come to true love. Maybe this is love too." Toto suddenly turned away, lying on his back, and looked at the ceiling, as if all his questions might be answered there. Ron's gaze was still glued to his face. "What difference does it make if 'love' is just a word?" Ron chuckled as usual, and after that, another feeling appeared inside Toto. Peace. "And just as a simple bug loves the sun, I can love you." Toto's breath caught for a second right after these words. He moved his gaze from the ceiling to Ron's face. He reached for his hair and pushed the fringe away from his eyes, just like he had done hundreds of times before, only this time his hands were shaking. Toto finally found his eyes. Heaven really was a bedroom. Part 7 is here!
Part 4!!
Ron and Toto's relationship began the moment Ron entered the BLUE publishing house.
A young man several heads shorter than him "met" him at the entrance, bumping into him. Ron didn't even have time to say anything, as he quickly apologized and continued running down the hallway. The sweet smell of cologne remained behind him.
Ron was sure that this was an ordinary employee of the publishing house, but when he entered the owner's office, he was incredibly surprised to see the same young man.
Ron offers to cooperate, which Toto politely but cautiously declines, saying that his family had already been ruined by political games. Then Ron explains the situation more "humanely", saying that he simply wants to preserve his father's legacy. He notes that his father considered part of his duty to help the Toto publishing house when his father still owned it.
Believing that they have a common goal (preserving the legacy of their families), Toto eventually agrees to help.
The first issue of the magazine, the second, the third… Toto gets the profit his publishing house so badly needed, and Ron establishes his position in society and politics.
They talk for a long time. First about their fathers, about their families, then about themselves. Ron finds Toto sweet and slightly naive, while Toto, despite Ron's overly active nature, finds himself completely calm next to him for the first time.
The look of love. The rush of blood. Their heads are empty when their lips touch. It feels like something right, like something so long-awaited, like the explosion of a small universe inside each of them.
They spend nights together without closing their eyes. They talk about work, talk about the stars. Ron, who had never seen the point of love before, desperately wants to kiss Toto as much as possible. He never takes his eyes off him for a second, and feels how the whole world narrows down to just the office in Toto's house as soon as his gaze catches Toto's eyes.
They sleep on the old sofa in his office. Ron counts every mole on Toto's back, runs his fingers along his spine, feels the slight tremor of his body. He presses his cheek to his back and all he really wants is to show Toto how special he is to him. Every movement of his hips, his arms, every kiss, every mark on Toto's skin.
Only in the morning Ron carries him to his bed, carefully covering him with a blanket.
Confused Toto wakes up alone and it seems to him that everything that happened last night was just a dream, but on the bedside table lies a note left by Ron.
Good morning, sweetheart. I hope your lower back doesn't hurt too much. I'll come see you tonight. - Ron
Part 6 is here!
Part Three!
Toto grew up in a deeply religious and conservative family.
His father was the founder and owner of the BLUE publishing house. He always kept everything strictly, which allowed him to keep the business going even in the most difficult times.
His mother was a simple housewife who was desperately trying to escape to a better life.
Toto was naive and kind from childhood. He forgave a lot, when he was fooled - he believed, he did not respond to evil with the same evil. His father never liked this, he wanted to raise a real man in him, ready to continue his publishing business. After all, their magazine collaborated with many politicians, and for this you need a calculating mind and a cold heart.
As a punishment, Toto was whipped on the calves. A place that no one would see, but which the boy himself never forgot.
His parents were killed in their own home. Toto was with them that evening, but he miraculously escaped - they simply didn't notice him in the closet. He was barely 7 years old at the time.
Toto still wears his father's suits, despite the fact that many of them had to be taken in, because he never grew to his father's height.
He hates his scars. He can't even look at his disfigured legs. But when Ron kisses them, gently pressing his lips to the scars, Toto can't hold back his tears, despite the fact that he didn't cry even when he got those scars.
part 5 is here!
Part 2!
After his father's death, Ron's position in the family worsened. When he was a child, the M family had enough conscience not to touch him, but in his teenage years, everything changed.
Ron was never a weakling. He was handsome, smart and charismatic. He was the kind of person the public would prefer to see in a political leader's place. Of course, this could not go unnoticed by the M family, and especially Mylo, who always disliked Ron.
"He is nothing more than a mistake with a name"
It was the only time in his life that Mylo got his hands dirty, carving 96 into the neck of seventeen-year-old Ron. And no matter how nimble and agile Ron was, that time he was unable to escape the strong grip of men who were several times larger and stronger than him.
From that time on, he was left with a mark that reminded him his whole life who he really was, and a panicky fear that appeared every time someone suddenly took his hand.
"With or without a scar, you're still beautiful," Toto told him. And Ron wants so badly to believe him, even though it's difficult.
Part 4 is here!
Part 1
When Ron comes to Toto with a direct request to help him, Toto is offered to bet on provocations. Ron is young, so why shouldn't he get support from other young people? And what sells well among young people? That's right, outrageousness.
They take a bunch of photos, but the very first one goes on the cover, in which Ron still doesn't understand how he should behave, while Toto is desperately trying to hold his face in place and finally put on lipstick.
Needless to say, this lipstick soon ended up on Toto's face too?
As a result, the issue with Ron sells incredibly well, which brings Toto's publishing house a lot of profit.
The quote from Ron's interview, placed on the cover, does not go unnoticed by those to whom it was addressed
Well, if you asked Toto what lipstick tasted like, he would say cherry :)
Literally them
