    Summary

    It’s for Ainosuke’s own good when Tadashi stops sneaking into him room, and puts an end to eager, exploratory touches. Tadashi rides out Ainosuke’s hurt, his anger, with a stony expression and a broken heart, repeating to himself over and over that it’s for the best. Ainosuke’s aunts have turned on him for less – have “loved” him for less – and Tadashi won’t let himself be a source of pain, another mark branded into Ainosuke’s wrist and heart.
    Not when he’s been in love with Ainosuke for as long as he’s known what love truly is.

    Tadashi reflects on everything he's given up to get to this point.

    Or, Tadashi and Ainosuke need to fall apart before they can come back together.
