(01/?) Towards Uncertain Futures: Of Childhood Dreams and Sudden Decisions
TITLE: Towards Uncertain Futures
AUTHOR: aishizuki @ LJ
PAIRING: Sakurai Sho x OC (Saito Miki)
RATING: PG-13
WORD COUNT: 3 569 words
GENRE: Drama/Romance/Comedy/Slice of Life (?)
TYPE: Multichapter AU
SUMMARY: After being with Arashi for ten successful years, Sho decides it’s time for him to take a break from his duties as an idol. Although his stint with Arashi guarantees him success in whatever endeavors he may choose to take on in his career, he feels that a change of scenery will allow him to realize what he truly wants to be in the long run - whether he wants to remain an idol with the agency, or to pursue his dreams of being a fully-fledged lawyer and settling down with a family in the near future.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I chose this timeframe (Arashi’s 10th year/2009) on purpose, hence this being an alternate universe of sorts. I seriously haven’t developed a plot for this… I’m just seeing where my writing will lead this story, based on the ending of each chapter. Comments are very much appreciated, because your opinions on what should happen next may heavily influence the outcome of the following chapter. :3 AND OMG MY WRITING SKILLS ARE NONEXISTENT NOW :<
Also, I’ll be trying my best not to use the Japanese equivalents of some phrases, as it seems to be annoying for some readers, and will also seem out of place in English text. However, names will be written in the LAST NAME FIRST NAME format, and the boys will be mentioned with their first names.
