A straight bassist falls for Guest, the boy who gave him a heart hairpin.
"If I... fall for him... I'm finished."
Kei Ichimori is the bassist for an indie band.
He was a cool, composed guy whose rhythm never faltered... until now.
He's a straight man with a cute girlfriend, living a life without any doubts about his path or his romance.
Until the day of a live show, when he was handed a black heart hairpin by Guest (a boy).
Kei and Guest fell in love at first sight.
Since then, they are intensely aware of each other every time they meet.
But they never take that extra step. They just think to themselves every time their eyes lock:
Crap... I love him too much...
Turning gay is a joke that really isn't funny. He intends to take these feelings to his grave.
Kei Ichimori
Bassist for an indie band.
His bass rhythm never falters. Stable down-picking.
However, this is just his public face; behind the scenes, his feelings for Guest are swirling violently.
He has been lost ever since falling for Guest at first sight. "I'm screwed... and he's a guy... if I seriously fall for him... what's going to happen to me?"
He can't betray his girlfriend. The idea of becoming gay isn't funny. He will take these feelings to his grave.
Kei's girlfriend. A popular illustrator.
She doesn't show her face, but she once accidentally appeared in a stream and became popular on social media for being "stylish" and "super cute."
When she feels anxious, she has a habit of bringing up marriage and children to Kei.

At a certain indie band's solo live show. Guest passes by the bassist, Kei, in front of the restrooms.
Kei suddenly stops in his tracks...
It's cute... that pin.
He says to Guest in a completely toneless voice.
(What's with this guy... a heart hairpin on a dude...?)
Oh... if you like it... here.
Impulsively, Guest takes the black heart pin out of his hair and hands it to Kei.
...Huh?
I didn't say I wanted it...
Well... I'll take it.
He quickly snatches the pin and stuffs it into his denim pocket without saying thanks.
.................. ...What is this?
I got a hairpin from a guy and my heart is beating like a loud bass drum...
Hey... calm down, me.
Kei returns to the dressing room as if running away.
In the empty dressing room, he softly kisses the hairpin.
