All Chapters of Savage Love: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

"So please," Aito continued. "Why don't you save us both the trouble and leave him alone? It's not right to force yourself on someone. I don't think you'll be happy in the end. Look, I can't leave Ryu for you, alright? So why don't you mention something else I can give you?"Yuuki scoffed. "You're in no position to lecture me, you know. And this is not a negotiation. I make the demands okay. I'm the one with your pictures. I have the upper hand here, so you better do as I say."The guy was really getting on Aito's nerves. He wondered how a person could be so dumb. "I've already told you. I can't leave Ryu for you. I love him, and he loves me. I won't let you ruin what we have.""Oh really?" Yuuki chuckled. His plan was working. Aito entered the trap himself. "Let me tell you something, honey. I'm not the one who's going to ruin your relationship. It was ruined from day one. Ryuho ruined it himself. How do you think I got those pictures of you, huh? I mean, I've never met you before un

Aito stared at Haruto in utter shock, unable to comprehend that Haruto was still alive, standing before him, hale and healthy. As if nothing ever happened. Nothing looked out of place. If he hadn't looked taller, Aito would even swear that Haruto didn't grow a day older. He seemed to be glowing even. Aito didn't know what to do. He felt as if he was dreaming. A part of him wanted to step forward and hug his best friend tight. Make sure that he was actually real. But another part of him froze his body in place. He felt as if Haruto would disappear if he touched him. Haruto spread his arms wide, giving Aito a small smile. "Will you just keep staring at your best bud like that? Won't you hug me?" His fingers were itching to touch Aito again. The pictures his spies got of Aito did not do Aito justice at all. He was so breathtaking in person. Haruto wanted to hug him tight and never let go. It had been so long since he was able to physically touch Aito. Haruto's words broke the barrier

Aito scoffed, shaking his head, not believing Haruto could speak like that. "You lost the right to look out for me the second you disappeared Haruto." Haruto gasped in disbelief, staring at Aito like he didn't know him. He realised that Aito wasn't ready to hear a single word against Ryu and even if he would listen, it would be only after Haruto explained himself. Guilting Aito would not work either. Aito had changed a lot. He wasn't that naive arrogant teenager anymore. Haruto realised he had to come clean. The plans he made were already in shambles. "Aito, you know you're my best friend and I would never let anything harm you," he said. "So can you just trust me on this one? Listen to what I have to say okay." "If it involves nonsense about my boyfriend, then I don't want to hear it," he said. "You know what, post those nudes okay? Tell your friend that I will never leave Ryu and he can do whatever the fuck he wants. The world thinks I'm dead anyway so it won't affect me. As for

"Ryuho didn't do anything," Yasu whispered back, answering for Ryu. "Something from the past came up. I think it'll be better if we let them handle it themselves." "Are you kidding me?" Kenji whispered, clearly not agreeing with Yasu. "He made my little brother cry, and you expect me to let them be in the same room?" Kaito rolled his eyes. "They're a couple, Brother Kenji. You don't see Yasu and me letting other people solve our problems for us. Everyone has an opinion, but the only opinions that matter are the ones that come from the people in the relationship, and that is Ryuho and Aito. They're going to talk, and we're going to leave. Okay?"In the end, Ryu was the only person left standing before Aito's room. Since the hallway was silent, he could hear Aito's cries louder and he wanted to beat himself up for making him cry. "I love you, Aito," he said and the cries immediately stopped. "I love you with all my heart. I love you with every fiber of my being. I swear it. I don't k

They were not close, but it was as if he could hear Ryu's thoughts from his expressions. 'Why won't you see me?' 'Why won't you talk to me?' 'You said we'll discuss everything. You won't shut me out. You won't jump to conclusions. So why?' 'Why are you ignoring me?' A tear rolled down Aito's cheek and he quickly wiped it away. He didn't even realize he was crying. Ryu saw this and stood up hurriedly but Aito closed the curtain and sat on the floor. He hugged his knees to his chest and let out a deep breath, trying to hold back his tears. "You betrayed me, Ryu," he sniffled. "You ruined my life. How do you expect me to forgive you?" ******** Finally, on Monday evening... Ryu stood by a corner, watching Aito transfer the potted roses into the soil of their garden. He was on both knees, carefully lowering a budding rose into the soil. The sun was setting, casting a reddish-orange glow all over the garden. Within the roses, Aito looked so fragile and beautiful. Like an enchantin
