This was requested by Nao, also known as nqcmii. Thank you for being the first to do so. I have been in a writing stump for a while now, so this is very helpful. :)

Boy meets girl, boy meets boy, boy hooks up with both girl and boy.

That would the simple math of Hajime's relationship with Chiaki and Nagito. Sure, people would see this as unfaithful and completely despicable. It wasn't the norm despite it being the 21st century.

As he got dressed to go to work, he couldn't help but feel a high weight on his shoulders. Was he being selfish for allowing this relationship to happen? Was he leading two people to heartbreak? He loved them dearly that choosing between them was like asking for death.

"Hajime? Nagito says that breakfast is ready." Chiaki said, while knocking on his closed door. Her sweet voice made his head flutter. She was a hard worker with a love of video games. Her job consisted of testing out games before they are released. It was the dream job.

"Okay. I'm coming down." Hajime acknowledged as he straightened out his tie. Sure, being a salesman at a department store wasn't as fun as Chiaki's, but it paid the bills.

He opened the door to see the girl waiting for him with a warm smile. "Good morning, Mr. Businessman." She greeted as she walked over and kissed him on the cheek.

"Morning. What did Nagito make this time?" He asked, scratching his head. The two of them headed downstairs towards the kitchen. "I just hope he didn't burn anything this time."

Chiaki giggled. "Hajime, you always say that."

"What? It's true." He countered. "I couldn't look at eggs the same again for a whole month."

They entered the kitchen as they heard the radio playing soft music. Nagito had his back turned away from them, humming along. Hajime couldn't help but think about how sexy Nagito was. He was a brainiac with the body of a model.

"I know you are looking at my ass, Hinata." Nagito called out.

"I was NOT." Hajime denied.

"Just for that, you are not getting any pancakes." Nagito replied smugly, making Hajime groan.

"Come on guys. Let's not get into a fight now." Chiaki sighed as she grabbed a glass from the cupboard.

"We're not fighting." Nagito clarified. "We just having a discussion."

"Whatever." Hajime sighed as he grabbed a banana from the fruit basket. "I am going to be late for work anyways."

"Sit down." Nagito ordered. "I was joking. Besides, I am driving you so you won't have to waste time on that stupid bus."

Hajime did as he was told, but still ate the banana along with his pancakes. He kept silent as he zoned out of reality. Chiaki and Nagito were having a conversation, but it was so distorted he didn't know what.

'When did I get so lucky?' He thought to himself. 'I have two of the greatest people in my life...but is this...love?' The guilt made him sick to his stomach that he couldn't bear looking at the pancakes.

"What? I said you can eat them." Nagito told them with a concerned look. "I didn't poison them."

"I...I just lost my appetite." Hajime muttered. Chiaki and Nagito looked at each other, confused.

"What's wrong?" Chiaki asked, rubbing Hajime's back. "Are you not feeling well?"

Hajime could feel tears welling up in his eyes, hearing her voice trying to comfort him. Nagito turned off the oven and sat on the other side of him.

"Do you guys...like me?" Hajime stuttered, ashamed. "This relationship of ours...are you guys o-okay with us?"

"What kind of stupid question is that?" Nagito answered with a question of his own. "I wouldn't be here if I didn't want to stay with you guys. I love you both...not just as friends, of course." Chiaki nodded in agreement. "Do you really think we hate you?"

"It's not that...it's everyone else..."

"Who cares about everyone else?! All that matters is that you are happy." Nagito grabbed Hajime's hands. "Listen to me...do you love me?" He nodded. "Do you love Chiaki?" He once again nodded.

"I love you both as well." Chaiki added. "Did I ever think I would ever fall in love with two guys? No, but I would never change it for anything."

Hajime smiled as he felt lighter in his heart. He realized that he was blinded by other people's opinions. Why should they tell him what is right and what is wrong? All that matters is right there: his two partners. He hugged them gently as the tears fell.

"Thank you...you have no idea how I needed to hear that." He said, choking on his sobs.

"Quit it already." Nagito said, playfully. "Can't have you tearing up before you have work." He gave the boy a tissue before kissing him on the cheek.

"We will always be there for you, Hajime." Chiaki reassured him. "As I know you'll be there for us."

"Yeah...always." Hajime agreed. Sniffling, he stood up and grabbed his coat. "Well, I am going off to work now."

"What about your breakfast?" Nagito called out. Hajime felt his stomach growl, completely forgetting that he didn't eat.

"Uhh...yeah. I'll eat." Hajime chuckled.

The three of them enjoyed their lovely breakfast and the time that they had with each other. For better or for worse.
