Manga: Usotsuki na Kimi no Toriko

This is a manga by Minase Masara, one of my favorite mangakas. It is about a relationship of a part-time student and his manager, but before that, a common person they know was their acquaintance in the past. It is a complicated relationship since there are struggles of two seme for one uke.

 Ikuta Yuuki (Uke)

Yuuki is an only child and a spoiled one. When he was younger,  Nakagou Yoshiki tutored him , then they became lovers. Yuuki became humble and submissive to Nakagou. When Nakagou got engaged, he left him because he couldn't bear the thought of him holding a woman while he's the other option for sex. Later on, when he is already a manager of a company, he found his younger cousin, Ryousuke. 

One night, his office mates decided to go out to welcome Ryousuke but Yuuki declined. Later on,  Ryousuke found him on the street and ended up bringing him to the younger guy's flat. Staying there, he felt comfortable and started showing Ryousuke his true self - bossy and arrogant. He also kissed him thinking it will keep him from telling others about his "true-self". He loves teasing Ryousuke after this event.

When Yoshiki came back (after his divorce), he avoided him as much as he can and used Ryousuke,as his new lover, thinking that it will stop pursuing him. But the truth is, he only wants to hurt Yoshiki back for what he had done to him. Because he always gets into trouble when he is not in the office, Ryousuke would follow him often. Until the younger man started staying at his flat and they had their moments together.
When Yoshiki hostaged him, he was raped but kept calling Ryousuke's name instead of enjoying his moment with his first love.
