Watarai Tsukasa is twenty seven, desperately lonely, and terrible at flirting. He has a list of pet names on his phone, arranged alphabetically, which he has been secretly writing on Hioki's coffee cups for weeks. He has never once spelled Hioki's name correctly. He is also, unfortunately, obsessed with every part of Hioki's body, especially his thighs.
When Hioki finally confronts him about the cup that reads "Darling," he expects an apology. Instead, he gets a confession, a plea for physical contact, and a pair of wide, desperate eyes that he cannot look away from.
What follows is a messy, tender, and increasingly heated romance between two people who don't know how to be loved. Watarai touches Hioki like a man starved, and Hioki learns that being wanted by someone younger, hungrier, and completely pathetic might be exactly what he needed.
