    2. This arrangement will be kept top secret. For obvious reasons.
    3. Absolutely no getting emotionally attached.
    4. No kissing outside filming.

    Miya Atsumu and Sakusa Kiyoomi get cast in a gay film together where they, in the words of The Great Philosopher Rihanna, fell in love in a hopeless place.

    Summary

    “My mother hugged me at my university graduation,” he says suddenly, the memory playing on loop in his head. He’d thought at first that she and Father had only shown up for the appearances, but then standing on the side of the road outside the venue, Kiyoomi still in his robes and Dad in the car, she had stepped towards him and wrapped her arms around him, squeezed him like she didn’t want to let go. It was the first and only time she has hugged him since he was seven years old. He swears, as she pulled away, she had whispered ‘I’m sorry.’
    He'd had a panic attack as soon as they drove off, crying alone on the pavement until Aunt Mio was able to pick him up and take him back to her house because she refused to drop him at his apartment all alone.
    “It doesn’t seem like she does that a lot,” it comes out of Atsumu’s lips as an almost-whisper.
    Kiyoomi shakes his head. “She doesn’t."

    Kiyoomi takes Atsumu home to Tokyo as his fake boyfriend for Christmas. He doesn't know why he ever thought that would be a good idea. The Sakusas don't take kindly to spectators. Or themselves.

    Summary

    Atsumu falls asleep after comforting a distraught Kiyoomi only to be told that he must make a choice: zap his twin out of existence or erase his high school sweetheart relationship with Kiyoomi. Unable to live a life without Osamu, Atsumu begrudgingly chooses to live a life where he and Kiyoomi never got together to begin with.

    While he sees that Kiyoomi is fundamentally the same, Atsumu quickly learns that in his previous timeline, he’d gotten too comfortable in the length of their relationship. Right under his nose, Kiyoomi had been making small changes that Atsumu hadn’t paid attention to. Now he sees just how much he could have done differently.

    As the pair grow closer, Kiyoomi gets ever so slightly more skittish. The sudden retraction makes Atsumu turn to Misery—the being that made him choose—this time full of rage and accusing them of ruining his life.

    Only then does Atsumu learn the truth behind why he had to choose between the two most important people in his life. Fit with this new knowledge Atsumu has to reconcile his new reality with a past that doesn’t belong to this version of Osamu and Kiyoomi.
