Synopsis
Virgin gay basketball player Shinoda falls for teammate Ikeuchi, who has a girlfriend, in this BL romance.
It's all the little things that Ikeuchi does that makes Shinoda want him. Shinoda's been gay for as long as he can remember, but he's still a virgin. Then he falls in love with Ikeuchi, a younger man on the same basketball team. However, Ikeuchi has a girlfriend... is there any way Shinoda can make him want him?
