Chapter 8
A few days later…
Today was their last concert; where they ended it in Japan. I woke up and realized that it was 11:00 already; I started to panic at first but then realized that today was our off day. “Yosh” I said and got out of the bed; then walked towards the living room, which is connected with my
kitchen, to prepare myself a delicious breakfast. WAAHHH! Someone was sleeping on my couch! What the hell?! Dare?? I walked towards the couch to see who that was… Sakurai Sho- he was sleeping on my couch…
After the
concert Arashi and the crew wanted to celebrate finishing the tour successfully. With this all the Arashi and some of the crew who did not have any other plans came together and decided to go to a
restaurant nearby. I was really tired so I wanted to stay behind. I wasn’t a drinker anyways. Then Amaya-san pointed out how I didn’t have a welcome party when I got the job. So they decided to celebrate that as well.
“Ano… really you guys don’t have to. I am tired anyways. You all should go ahead and have fun…” I tried to object but Aiba stopped me.
“Come on Buse-chan!! We should totally have a party for you too! Come come pleaseee…” he said with his puppy eyes. Aww, wait he remembers my name! Baka, of course he does. You fix their hair everyday I told myself.
“Okay Aiba-san I will come…” I said.
“yay!! And call me aiba-chan. -san is just too formal.” Chan? Really? Oh well he is a very friendly person.
“Then buse-chan ikuzo!” Sho said as he put his arm around me and dragged me out of the building. I was wearing only a polo shirt and it was a bit windy outside so it felt good to have his arms around me. Wait, this was not supposed to happen…
“Anoo Sho-kun,” I said pointing to his arm.
“Nani?” he said confused.
“Can you let go now. I said I am coming already.”
“Oh sorry…” he said and looked away. There was an awkward silence so I walked away from him and grabbed Maki-chan’s arm. “ Hey Maki-chan I don’t drink, what am I going to do?”
“Amaya-san can’t drink either since she is pregnant so you can order juice like she does.” She said.
“Good idea, then I won’t be the only sober one. Good, good.”
At the restaurant they drank a lot and got drunk. The guys were drunk and laughing loudly while the drunken women were gossiping about something and giggling. Ugh, I wanted to go home already; Amaya-san had excused herself and left earlier because her husband might get worried about her.
“Hey Buse-chan” Sho said as he sat down beside me.
“Oh wow you are not drunk” I said surprised. “I thought you loved drinking,”
“I do but I thought it would be wise to be sober when there are so many drunken guys around. Especially Jun, he will regret everything he is saying tomorrow. HE is worse than I am. Ha-ha”
Yup, not only Jun but all of them looked wasted. Seeing this news side of them made me giggle.
“Why are you giggling?”
“Look at them, they look hilarious.”
Then Sho laughed along with me. “You are right. I guess I look as stupid as them when I am drunk.”
“Haha…I am sure you do.” Then I clasped my lips with my hands. Did I
make him mad?” I mean…umm…”
“Haha, Buse-chan don’t worry I am not mad. Everyone looks stupid when they are drunk.”
After an hour or so, people started to leave one by one. This was my chance to go back home, finally.
“Well then I will be going back home. Ja ne!” I said to people who were still around and got up.
“Wait, I will take you home.” Sho said getting up as well.
“You don’t have to really,” I said.
“Its really late look at the time its 3:30 A.M.I will take you home.”
Wow it was really late. “Okay, arigatou.” I said.
He drove me back to my house and none of us really talked because we were both really tired.
“Then. Arigatou gozaimassu” I said and got out of the
car. Should I invite him for tea? Would it be rude if I did not? Would it be awkward if I did? “Um… would you like to come in for tea?” I asked before I could stop my lips from moving.
“Yeah, sure.” He said and got out of the car as well.
I quickly went inside the kitchen to prepare tea and he made his way towards the living room. By the time I finished making the tea and went to the living room he was already asleep. I thought of waking him up but I knew he was too tired. So I drank the tea by myself and brought him a blanket. Then I went back to my bedroom to sleep.
Then I remembered what happened. Oh well, I guess I should prepare a breakfast for two. I made some tea, pancakes and French toast. These should be enough. I went to the living room to wake him up. I crouched down next to the couch and prepared to shake him; but then his face caught my attention.
He looked so kawaii and innocent. I could watch him like this forever; I took out my
phone and took his picture really quick. What am I doing? I should wake him up. He suddenly opened up his eyes which shocked me. BAM! I fell on my butt. Itai!!!
“itai” I whispered.
“Are you OK?” Sho asked looking concerned but was laughing at the same time.
“Yeah. I was about to wake you up; breakfast is ready”I said and walked towards the table.
“Anoo… Gomen for falling asleep last night.” He said scratching his head.
“No problem,” I said.
“Buse-chan where is the bathroom? I need to wash my face.”
“It’s the first door on the right” I said as I poured tea into the cups.
When he came back he looked better, his hair was back to normal and he did not have that sleepy expression anymore.
“Itadakimassu” he said quickly and started eating. “Umai Buse-chan these French toasts are really delicious.”
“Really? Thanks.”
“You don’t look like a person who would know how to cook? But I guess you can cook really well.”
“Excuse me but what do you mean I don’t look like it? I live by myself so of course I would know how to cook.” I said pouting.
“Haha, Just kidding Buse-chan don’t get mad” he said his hands up. “Kawaii”
“Ehh??” Did he just say what I thought he said?
“I mean you look cute when you do that.”
“Do what?”
“That-“he said pointing at my face, “pouting.”
“Oh…” I could feel my face turn red.
He just smiled and continued to eat. I just finished my tea, I was full already. I had
eating while waiting for him.
“By the way Buse-chan you have an awesome Arashi poster.” He said as he continued to eat.
“What poster?” Oh that poster… THAT poster!! How did he know that. “Wait, how do you-“
“When I was looking for the bathroom I opened the wrong door. Gomen… anyways, I saw the poster. Its really awesome.”
“No, it’s embarrassing. I should have taken it down…” I whispered.
“What? You are a fan so you should at least have one poster, right? You are my number one fan after all.” He said smirking or smiling; I could never tell the difference.
“wait.. I am not your-“
“Thanks for the food Buse-chan but I need to get going” he said as he got up. Wait! He did not even let me talk, Ugh!
“Ja ne! “ He said and left the apartment. What was that? What’s the hurry? Oh well who cares I thought as I plopped myself on the couch and turned on the TV.

Chapter 9
Next day when I went to work I saw all of Arashi sitting down on the couches, deep in thought. Normally they would be playing around or at least doing something but instead they were just sitting there. Even Nino was not playing with his DS. They seemed to be conversing about something important.
“Hi, Buse-chan! We need your help,” Sho said waving his hand motioning me to come sit next to them when he realized that I entered the room.
“Why?” I asked, yeah why should they need my help?
“You see we are allowed to go on a vacation for two weeks, you know to rest after the tour. We don’t usually get breaks so-“Sho said
“We want to go somewhere nice you know out of the country- out of the public eye.” Jun completed.
“Hmm… well obviously you guys can’t go to the countries that we went on your tour because of the fans.”
“No duh! Why did not we think of that before?” Nino said sarcastically.
“What? I am just saying. I don’t know; going to the states for only two weeks would be absurd because it is far away…hmm…”
“Yes, I know! What about Turkey? That is where you are from right?”Sho said. Wait when did I tell him where I was from?
“Yeah, no one knows you over there so it should be fine. It is the season for tourists anyways so my cousin could arrange something…” Wait, no. Why am I saying these things? I should say no and ask how come he knows.
“Yay! Then it is decided right minna!” Aiba said happily. “We can have fun at the Mediterranean Sea!”
“Let’s go ahead and talk to the boss then,” Ohno said getting up. They all started to leave the room. Wait…
“Come on Buse-chan!” Sho said and pulled me out of the room. Wait! Why was I going with them?!
“Matte. Why am I coming with you guys?”
“Because it was your idea.” Sho said.
“No it was not.”
But were already at Johnny Kitagawa’s office. Ohno knocked on the door and we all entered. I was about to meet the” legendary” Johnny. But I could not be excited about that now. I had to cancel this somehow. Why am I dragged into this? Oh well… I might as well go with the flow I thought. When we entered the room all I saw was an old man sitting behind the huge table. What was I expecting anyways, to see a king or something? He was a regular old man.
“Hello, Johnny-san” Ohno said and sat down on one of the
black leather couches. “Domo!” Nino said and sat next to Ohno. Then others found themselves places to sit and made me sit next to Sho. After that Sho explained Johnny where they wanted to go and how my cousin could help them and so on…
“So your cousin works in tourism?” Johnny asked directly to me.
“Hai,” I said, “Yes she does so she well her agency can help them to find a hotel and so on.”
“Okay”Johnny said and thought about something for a moment. “You should go with them too.” He said. Wait is he talking to me?
“Um... No I don’t think I should.” I tried to refuse.
“You should because you know them and speak Japanese and Turkish. You would be a great help to them.”
“Demo-“I tried to refuse but Sho cut me off.
“Of course she will come! Sugoi ne Buse-chan?” I gave him a deadly stare but kept my mouth shut. If looks could kill he would be dead by now. How could he make decisions in my place?
“Now that this is settled; go now, I have work to do.” Johhny said jokingly but was actually serious at the same time.
“Hai,” MatsuJun said and we all left the room. When we exited the room I turned to Sho,
“How could you answer in my place? Who said I wanted to go?”
“Well you need a break too. And I know you want to see your cousin, too. So why should you refuse?”
Now that I think about it he was right. My cousin was expecting me to visit her anyways. But still he should not answer in my place. I looked up at him and opened my mouth to scold him a bit more but I just said “Yeah, you are right.” I could not stay angry at him when he has those cute puppy eyes. Cute?? I wanted to bang my head against the wall. I should not think about things like that. Oh well it was going to be good getting a vacation for myself, too.
