Of course, I read the bit about making you hungry, and since my friends often tell me that I should write more gourmet stories I thought I might try it for a bit XD (yes, I own all the recipes about all the bits that were written in the story so I could send it to you)
I'm happy that you liked the story and to read about your thoughts it was a lot of what I hoped to achieve with this story. I also think cute emoticons don't fit Nino that much, but he was nervous at the last message (and at least I tend to use more emoticons when I write with people who use a lot.
Nino wanted so much to fall in love with Aiba which he did then he wanted him to be his soulmate because of his vow to only fall in love with them or go without love forever. He was of course scared that if he checked Aiba's chest and there wasn't that he would leave or how he would interact... In Aiba's absence he realised that he didn't care anymore but just needed to be with Aiba (at least in my mind XD) So finding out was a big bonus.
Sorry for the silly answer but I'm so, so happy you liked the story.
