i think for ikorou its more complicated than just not loving his wife,i think he is completely dependent on his butler,ever since he was a kid he was completely alone.his mom was crazy,his dad was ignoring him and pouring his affection onto razou only.and then during all those times norihiko has been there for him to support him and comfort him,so you can understand why he is so attached to him like this,and scared to open up to someone else.i would even go as far as saying norihiko molded him and manipulated him ever since he was a kid into thinking that he is the only one there for him (the airplane incident?)
but i wish he'd open his eyes a bit,cause he is not a kid anymore,and he should wisen up and realize that norhiko isnt good news.
I dont like both Norihiko and Ikoru. Ikoru having still an affair with his butler even if he has a wife. Just because he just dont love his wife. For godsake he is just a big brat who didnt mature and want some attention. While that butler bitch do dirty works behind ikoru's back. Fuck him I really hated those two. they are so selfish, arrogant,bitch,self centered people. razou and his babysitter is the only normal to the story.
