[A possessive top who lured his partner into a casual relationship] × [A lonely bottom who’s given up on love] When my straight best friend became my casual partner, he turned into the sweetest man in the world— A BL story that crosses the boundaries of friendship, melting hearts with its warmth I’m a closeted gay man who’s never managed to keep a proper relationship going. I’ve spent my lonely nights with people I don’t even know. One such night, when I was fleeing from a dodgy hook-up, it was my best friend, Issei, who came to my rescue. Still reeling, I came out to him, only for him to say, with a straight face, ‘If a one-night stand is fine, then I’ll do.’ —How did it come to this? That’s what I thought, yet I went with the flow, and before I knew it, I was in Issei’s arms. What’s more, the sex… honestly, it was amazing. That fact is the worst part. I tried to forget it because it was so awkward, but Issei just carried on as if nothing had happened, casually asking, ‘Let’s do it again,’ and to top it all off, he even said, ‘Why don’t we go out?’ …You’re joking, right? We’re friends, aren’t we? So why on earth are you looking at me like that? ‘I’m just a sex toy. Call me whenever you fancy a shag,’ he says, sounding almost angry. Why on earth would he say that――.
