Summary: Hikaru brings in a cotton candy machine. Yabu freaks.
Notes: something silly to end the week. :3
Yabu can sense something is wrong the minute he steps into the jimusho’s building. Clutching his bag tighter towards himself, he quickens his pace and runs towards JUMP’s dressing room.
Sure enough, when he arrives, a big (pink) machine is in the middle of the room, whirring and purring. It took him a while to register what the machine actually is.
Cotton candy machine.
The bag he was holding now is on the floor. With a gulp, he starts to walk towards the machine, frowning a little.
“Yabu!”
He jumps a little. From behind the machine, Hikaru’s head popped out followed by the rest of his body. Hikaru is all smiles and his eyes twinkles in amusement.
“Look!” he says excitedly, hands gesturing towards the cotton candy machine like a magician just finished doing a trick. “Look, look, look.”
“I’m looking. I’m looking. Where’d you get this thing anyway?” Yabu asks, as he circles the machine, as if trying to make sense of it.
“Tegoshi-kun,” replies Hikaru simply.
Hearing the name, Yabu stops and turns wide-eyed at Hikaru. “Te-tegoshi?”
“Yup,” as if sensing Yabu’s fear, he added, “it’s okay, Koyama-kun was with him. I’m sure it’s safe.”
“HIKARU! It’s Koyama-kun AND Tegoshi. You know how Koyama-kun is with Tegoshi,” Yabu shakes Hikaru before pacing back and forth in the room.
“This thing will explode soon. I’m sure of it. Or bring us some kind of calamity,” he says with a grave voice. “Pack your things, we’re saving ourselves,” and he starts to type out an email; probably to warn the others.
“You worry too much, Yabu,” Hikaru fishes the phone out of Yabu’s hand, closes it and pockets it. “It’s just a cotton candy machine. I mean, how much harm can it do?”
“I’m not taking any chances. Now help me throw this thing out.”
“But I just got it working!” Hikaru pouts.
“If you value your life, I suggest you-“ and Yabu’s words were cut off by a squeal.
Currently barging into the room are Yamada and Yuto, with Yuto getting excited over the sight of the cotton candy machine.
“Yama-chan! Yama-chan! Look!” he drags Yamada to the centre of the room.
“Cotton candy?” Yamada then looks at Hikaru for answers.
He nods. “It’s awesome, right?” he asks; Yuto nods excitedly and Yamada could only look at it curiously.
“Ne, Hikaru, how do you use this?” asks Yuto eagerly, already touching the buttons on the contraption.
“No, we’re not going to use this thing,” Yabu intercepts, “we’re going to throw it away; where it belongs.”
Hikaru resumes his pout, “but Yabuuu, just look at this face,” pointing at his own face, “how can you say no to this face?”
“Actually, yes, I can say no to that face.”
Not giving up, he pulls Yuto, “how about this face?” and Yuto gives his best puppy pout (after Hikaru told him to) in front of Yabu. Knowing Yabu, Hikaru knows using any 7 members would be able to sway Yabu’s decision any day.
“Ugh,” Yabu turns away, “No is still no!”
Hikaru now grabs Yamada, and tells him to look as sad as possible (“Why would I do that?” “Because if you don’t, then Yuto will be the sad one here.”) and make a YamaJima pout combo in front of Yabu.
Not being able to say no to his babies, Yabu agrees. “Fine.”
“YATTA!”

“Are you sure it’s supposed to be like this?”
“Hmm, I don’t know. Try pushing that one.”
BAM!

“What did I tell you?” Yabu is looking particularly smug right now.
Grunting, “you told me that thing will ‘bring calamity’ to us all,” says Hikaru, looking at places other than Yabu.
The dressing room is now covered with pink candy floss.
Yabu looks around the room. Every inch of the room is covered with sticky candy as far as he can tell and the cleaning lady won’t be happy to find this when she does.
(The cleaning lady is scary; Yabu knows.)
“Now, how are we going to clean this mess up?” says Yabu. “No, Yamada. You cannot lick them clean. Even the ones on Yuto,” he added when he sees the Yamada-shaped pink cotton candy slowly moving to the Yuto-shaped one.
(“But it’s delicious!”)
“Hikaru, help me get some suppl-“ when he turns around, Hikaru is nowhere to be seen. Then, Yabu hears the sound of the door being closed shut.
… and Yamada and Yuto are also gone.
“HIKARUUUUU!”
- omake -
“Tegoshi, did you get rid of that broken candy machine yet?” asks one of the staff when he’s walking by NEWS’s dressing room.
“Already did!”
“You didn’t tell me it was broken! And we gave it to Hikaru!” says Koyama, shocked.
“Oops.”
