Sekaiichi Hatsukoi 2

A good beginning makes a good ending.

Onodera leaves the office to visit the bookstore and thinks about how it has felt whenever Takano has touched him, but he dismisses these thoughts. At the bookstore, he runs into Yokozawa, and as they leave together, Yokozawa demands that Onodera move to a new home. Onodera argues that it his none of his business and teases Yokozawa that maybe he and Takano were dating. Yokozawa confirms this suspicion and Onodera realizes that Yokozawa doesn’t like him because he is protecting Takano. Back at the office, Onodera overhears a conversation between two women, one of whom saw Takano and Yokozawa together the night before. Takano invites Onodera to dinner, and though Onodera declines, Takano makes the plan anyway. Onodera tries to avoid having dinner with Takano, but Takano catches him and they go to dinner at Takano’s apartment. At dinner, Onodera becomes intoxicated and drunkenly confesses that Takano’s behavior has an emotional effect on him. Takano denies the rumor about him and Yokozawa and tells Onodera that he is greatly affected by his presence as well, including at his job. The two have a heartfelt moment where Takano calls Onodera by his first name and Onodera calls him "senpai." The next morning, Onodera awakens to find himself naked in Takano’s bed, unable to remember the events of the previous night, but pain in his hips and back leads him to realize that he and Takano might have done it. Despite this obvious evidence, he openly denies this taking place. (Source: Wikipedia)

One cannot love and be wise.

Onodera reflects upon how he imagined Christmas would be when he and Takano were together 10 years ago. Onodera runs a manuscript over to the printers and upon arriving back at the office, he receives an email from Takano telling him he can go home. As the elevator door opens, he sees Takano and Yokozawa talking and when the leave together, Yokozawa asks what Onodera's plans are for the 24th, which happens to be Takano's birthday. Yokozawa then implies to Onodera that he and Takano are still together, and he warns Onodera again to stay away from Takano. Onodera wishes Takano a happy birthday and as they part, Takano requests Onodera's company on a drive for his birthday gift. On the drive, Onodera reflects on his feelings toward Takano, and Takano reveals the true nature of his relationship with Yokozawa and reminds Onodera that he has loved him for 10 years. Takano admits that when they were still high school, he used to imagine how he was going to celebrate his birthday with Onodera, and Onodera tells him that he used to imagine it as well (though they were never able to do it since their relationship ended). They kiss, and Onodera admits to himself that he cannot resist Takano. (Source: Wikipedia)

Lingering love breeds mistake.

Hatori asks Yoshino to do front color pages at the last minute as the person originally in charge of it had to be hospitalized. After the work was completed, he is told that one of his assistants likes Yuu and blacks out due to overwork and exhaustion as he had not slept in days. Afterwards, Yuu comes to visit Yoshino, during which they talk about their plans to go to a spa. This time Yoshino asks Yuu to have Hatori accompany them as well, but Yuu objects. Yoshino encourages Yuu to go out with his assistant as she has a crush on him, prompting a frustrated Yuu for the first time to confess to Yoshino. Yoshino tells him that he likes him as well, but Hatori (who came to drop off a manuscript) hears it and leaves the apartment angrily. After Hatori leaves, Yoshino explains that he only meant that he liked Yuu as he was an important friend to him and not in a romantic way, but Yuu asks him to think about it. Yoshino calls Hatori to his house as he wanted to clear up the misunderstandings. When Hatori comes, he tells Yoshino that he knows Yoshino wants to end their relationship. Yoshino becomes mad that Hatori drew that conclusion and tells him off about it. Hatori feels better as that meant Yoshino was confessing his feelings to him. (Source: Wikipedia)

Delay in love is dangerous.

Yoshino and Hatori make a date, but Hatori cancels at the last minute. Later Yoshino sees Hatori with his old high school girlfriend. An infuriated Yoshino turns to Yuu for comfort. While spending time at Yuu's place, Yoshino asks Yuu if he remembers Hatori's ex-girlfriend back in high school. Yuu remembers her and her name, and tells Yoshino how they look amazing together. Yuu receives a call from Hatori, but refuses to give the phone to Yoshino, and he tells him that he has decided to make him his. When Yoshino asks about what he said, Yuu tells him it's just a joke, but later admits that he really is in love with him. Yuu forces himself on Yoshino, but Yoshino hits him in the face, and quickly apologizes for it. This makes Yuu sob, asking Yoshino why he loves Hatori instead of him. Hatori arrives and tries to violently hit Yuu, but Yoshino intervenes. Back at Yoshino's place, Yoshino and Hatori get in an argument. Yoshino asks Hatori about his ex-girlfriend, and Hatori says that she is working at the printers and there is nothing between them. Hatori reminds Yoshino how much he loves him. (Source: Wikipedia)

Follow love and it will flee thee,flee love and it will follow thee.

While trying to deal with the stress at work, Onodera gets an unexpected phone call and visit from his "fiancée" that causes a riff between him and Takano. On their way back home, Takano kissed Onodera in the train. When he is walking back home with Takano, Onodera saw his "fiancée" in front of his apartment. When Takano saw Onodera fiancé, he gets jealous and decides to go see his cat, Sorata, which is currently living at Yokozawa's house. Onodera stops him from going to Yokozawa's and explained everything about his "fiancée" situation to Takano. Onodera told his fiancée (early in the relationship) that he was in love with someone else (that person is Takano). Although Onodera didn't declare his love towards Takano, they kissed in front the door and Takano stayed for the night with Onodera, not going to Yokozawa's house. (Source: Wikipedia)

Love and envy make a man pine.

Shouta Kisa and his perfect boyfriend Yukina haven't been able to see much of each other because of Kisa's work. Yukina always complies with Kisa when he says he is busy at work, which causes Kisa to believe that Yukina's lack of anger means he doesn't love Kisa as much as Kisa thought he did. Kisa finally resolves to make time for Yukina no matter what after he hears about the marriage of a friend of his when a major project was given to him from Takano. Again, Yukina says it is fine when Kisa can't make it, but Kisa goes to his work and waits for him anyways after hurrying to finish his work. There, he unexpectedly finds Yukina meeting with a girl and watches them as the two walk towards the naughty part of town Kisa knows all too well. (Source: Wikipedia)

Kisa then tells Yukina that their relationship will still not work out because he does not even know anything about him, and Yukina replies by telling him things about himself such as his height, weight, blood type,shoe size,birthday,favorite foods, hobbies, his strengths and weaknesses and educational background, and that the person he loves is Kisa. Kisa then tries to say it still will not work because he has no self confidence, and then Yukina tells him to turn his love for Kisa into his confidence, ending the fight.
