The Fan And The Idol

Chapter 19

Once they reached the cinema, Izanagi went to buy the tickets while Masahiko and Nao stood at the side. “What movie did you choose?” Masahiko asked. “Since there are only two horror movies being shown, i chose ‘Sadako vs Kayako’,” Izanagi replied. “Two ghosts at the same time? Nice choice.” Masahiko said in a sarcastic voice. “What’s the other show?” He asked. “Umm.. ‘Conjuring 2’.” Izanagi replied and Masahiko nodded.

“Since we still have some time, i’m going to put these in the car. Why not you two buy some food and drinks?” Masahiko asked and left with the bags full of their formal wear. Nao is still frozen in his spot as his face became pale since he knew this movie will be replaying in his mind for a long time. “Nao-chan? Are you okay?” Izanagi asked and Nao nodded weakly. “Gomen. You can’t handle horror?” He asked, worried. “I-it’s fine Izanagi-san.” Nao said, although his voice is trembling in fear.

“Baka, we can change to an action show or comedy.” Izanagi said and was walking towards the ticketing counter but was stopped by Nao. “It’s fine Izanagi-san.” Nao said, not wanting to trouble him and also not wanting him to spend any more money. “If you say so. But feel free to hold onto me or Masa if you are scared alright?” Izanagi said and Nao nodded.

After buying three cups of sodas, mixed popcorn and nachos, they waited for Masahiko. Soon, he came and helped them take the food. “Let’s go in then.” Masahiko said and entered the theatre. After finding their seats, they let Nao sit in the middle and Masahiko looked at him. “Popcorn or nachos?” He asked and Nao looked at him. “Umm.. Nachos.” He replied shyly and Masahiko smiled while passing the food to him and passed the popcorn to Izanagi.

“Nao, do you need my scarf? You can use it to cover your eyes if you are scared.” Masahiko asked and Nao looked at him and nodded shyly. “Thank you Masahiko-san.” Nao said shyly as he took the scarf from Masahiko’s hand. “Nagi, have you placed your phone to silent mode?” Masahiko asked. “Oh right. Thanks for reminding me.” Izanagi laughed, earning a sigh from Masahiko.

Soon, the movie started and Nao hurriedly passed the nachos to Masahiko as he hold onto Izanagi with one hand while his other hand is gripping onto the scarf tightly. Izanagi smiled when he felt Nao holding onto him and patted his head. “It’s fine. It’s all fake Nao-chan.” Izanagi said softly to Nao and watch the film while holding onto Nao protectively.

Not even fifteen minutes had passed and a horror scene popped up, making Nao gasped in shock and cover his eyes with Masahiko’s scarf while pushing his face into Izanagi’s chest. The two male saw and chuckle at his cuteness. “You are so cute Nao-chan.” Izanagi said as he rubbed his back, hoping it will calm Nao at least a little.
