Title: Six Weeks
Rating: PG? It's harmless fluff!
Pairing: Ohmiya
Disclaimer: I do not own Arashi yet... but we all have our dreams, right?
Note: First ever Ohmiya one shot ^^ Though I have written other Arashi fan fics... this is in Ohno's point of view when Nino was away filming Letters from Iwo Jima.


Six weeks would be long enough, right? Just long enough to make us crave each other, to make us crazy for the smell of each other’s skin... or the taste of our lips. Well, maybe not Kazu... he’d be busy with the movie most of the time, but me... I’d be the one left behind to suffer. As I watched him play his game like usual next to me, I wondered what had happened to the agreement we shared. If we stayed apart for as little as three days, we’d start to get nervous and anxious... he hardly looked worried as he spat curses at his DS. Maybe it was just me.

Kazu didn’t exactly want a farewell party or a gathering of any sort. He saw this as business that had to be done and not a big deal in the slightest. When I had asked him if he wanted anything- anything- at all before he left, he shrugged slightly and smirked at me.

"You’re still worrying, Oh-chan?" he asked curiously. I couldn’t show him how nervous I was... he might cancel his trip altogether to just be next to me. I shook my head and smiled weakly.

A quick kiss on my nose was all he did before turning back to his game. Two weeks had passed since Kazu left... we offered to see him off at the airport, but he said it was unnecessary. I guess his way of saying good-bye to me was having me spend the night... but it didn’t seem like anything out of the ordinary. Sometimes I wonder if he really loves me like he says he does... then again, I could just be thinking too much. In place of seeing him off, I sent him a quick message to have a safe flight and return home quickly. He replied with a simple thank you and I’ll miss you. Should something as simple as that make me smile the rest of the day?

I tried my best to not let the lack of "skinship" bring me down. Though, when I was around everyone else, I couldn’t help it. My arm would find it’s way around Aiba’s shoulders without my knowing, when I got bored or sleepy, my head would find it’s way to Jun’s lap and when walking onto the set, I would find myself holding Sho’s hand. At first they found my random actions weird, but they understood that I missed Kazu.

Throughout the day, I would send encouraging messages to him, hoping he’d reply and tell me how much he missed me. Only once did he do that... Kazu is cold like that sometimes... I guess I caught him in a bad mood when he didn’t respond... I’ve been doing that a lot recently.

Mmm, four weeks... how am I still alive? I think if it wasn’t for the constant contact with Jun, Sho and Aiba, I’d be dead. I haven’t heard from Kazu in awhile... did he find someone better over there? Ah... Aiba warned me about thinking too much... it just makes you sick. No wonder I’ve been achy lately. I wonder if he’s feeling like this? Hm, probably not, he’s got a job to do after all. I looked over to my idle phone for the millionth time today, hoping and wishing it would ring. It wasn’t healthy of me to grow such a dependency on my phone... but it was currently my only way to Kazu. My mind wandered back to what he could be doing at the same moment... ah! Time differences! He was sleeping now, most likely... I closed my eyes and curled up on my bed, hugging a pillow against me, trying to imagine his smell and to picture the sleeping face I almost always woke up to. I could feel his warm breath against my cheek... his unique smell hovering, teasing, my nose. I could have cried right there... but the dream was too pleasant... I fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat.

A whole week... a whole week. Nothing. He called his manager apparently, but not us. I don’t know if I should be mad or worried. Is he mad at us for not throwing a surprise party? Is he mad at me for not doing anything!? I paced my room nervously, grinding my brain for his exact words five weeks ago. He said he didn’t want anything, right? Was I too sleepy to hear his real words and replaced them with my own laziness? What else would he have to be angry at? I sat down and wrote down everything I could think of... I came up with a lot. I read the list over and over, marking off the things he’d already scolded me for. A sudden buzzing caught my attention and I looked towards my phone. Eh? It... it was ringing! I jumped up and grabbed it, flipping it open quickly.

"Kazu!" I said happily, my voice higher than normal. No one replied. After several moments, I pulled the phone from my ear and looked at it. I felt more stupid than I ever had before. He had sent me a message.

Oh-chan, I miss you... really I do... six weeks is too damn long. Haven’t been able to talk much to anyone... but we’ll do that when we meet up again. Counting down the days, don’t be too sad... I love you. Kazu ♥

I couldn’t explain the reason why I suddenly wanted to cry. Was it because all of my worthless worrying suddenly disappeared, leaving me to finally breathe? Or was it because my Kazu hadn’t really forgotten me at all? I replied with a simple I love you too and told him to be safe on his way home. I was finally able to rest... I held my pillow close to me again, using the same technique I used everyday for a week. Kazu was in my arms again, his peaceful face against mine, his breath warming my lips... he was there once more, his protective arms around my neck and his hands curled into my hair.

It took nothing more to lull me to sleep, than the heartbeat I fell in love with, beating softly against my chest.

**I've got to dedicate this to my bestest friend (and the one responsible for getting me into this fandom) in the world ^_^ She's off somewhere in Hawaii, while I'm here... writing this lol. And I miss her so much D: she's literally my Ohno to my Nino... if that makes sense :P Hope you all enjoyed the fluff!**
