Summary
Ash just wanted Eiji Okumura’s attention.
He couldn’t justify it, couldn’t unravel the logic of why he always craved the older boy’s dark eyes on him. Ash had spent most of his life being the centre of the show; the disgusting old men in Golzine’s club, the patchwork of gang members who followed his every move like he was a messiah. Even simple passerby seemed to watch him like they were cataloging something glamorous, something other worldly.
He always hated the attention he drew, and yet—he would do anything for Eiji to look at him, to focus on him, to stay with him just a little bit longer.
[Ash's need and Eiji's unconditional love, in four snapshots.]

Summary
Ash discovers Eiji can lift him easily and develops a slight obsession.
Ash feels bad about upsetting him, but they have to be realistic. “Oh come on, Eiji. We both know you can’t even lift me.”
“I was an athlete, Ash.” Eiji says with narrowed eyes. “I assure you, I can lift you.”
Ash raises his eyebrows at him. “Well, then be my guest.”
Of course he doesn’t expect Eiji to call him on his bluff. He prepares himself to laugh it as a joke, waits for Eiji to throw him his familiar teasing smile.
Ash watches in a dazed haze as Eiji leans forward to gather him in his arms, easily lifts him from his chair and carries him to his room without even showing the smallest sign of a struggle. He gently puts Ash to his bed and steps back.
“Well, what do you think now?” he asks smugly.
Holy fucking hell, Ash thinks.
