The concerts at Nagoya went well without any obstacles. The five current members felt much more energetic performing, knowing that the youngest member is supporting them backstage. They have not reunited on the same stage yet, but they will soon.
The tears shed, the pain they felt during the times of Kazuya’s departure from the group due to her personal reasons, all were worth the hurt they’ve all felt. One year had been a long time, they may have matured within that period but one thing for sure that have not change is their bond as a group.
Kamenashi Kazuya is a part of them, and without her, they’re incomplete. Thus all of them are anticipating for her return, hoping that it will have a positive outcome from the public.
Together as one, KAT-TUN will finally be complete.

T-TUN were waiting in the lobby the next morning, patiently waiting for the couple to arrive. They had promised to meet here to have breakfast together but apparently, those two were more than 10 minutes late.
Heaving out a sigh, Nakamaru glanced at his wrist watch for the countless time. “Can’t they wait till they get home to be all lovey dovey? I can’t believe this.” Looking up, he realized that Koki was grinning like an idiot, possibly imagining things.
“What do you think they’re doing right now?” Koki teased, causing his friends to flash out a disgusted look, hands flailing all over the air. “Ah, come on. They’re a couple in love. They have the right to do whatever personal stuff they want.” He tried to reason, not noticing that Ueda was near him thus were not prepared for the whack on the head.
“It hurts!!” Koki complained, the other members laughed at him while Ueda simply rolled his eyes. “Serves you right.” He murmured, glancing towards the elevator, and as if he predicted, the said couple walked out of it. The two walked towards them, hand in hand, with a bright smile on their faces.
“Sorry that we’re late.” Jin said once they were next to their friends, not once letting go of his girlfriend’s hand.
“Sorry?” Nakamaru blinked, hitting Jin lightly on the head. “We waited for 20 minutes! Can’t you guys wait till you get home to do whatever love stuff you want to one another?” The last sentence was a whisper, as he leaned closer to the two. “You two, you know you have to be careful.”
“Why should we be careful? We haven’t even done anything wrong.” Jin pouted, glancing at Kazuya for help.
Shaking her head, she merely hit the eldest member back on the head. “That’s for you for having dirty thoughts about us.” Kazuya scolded yet a smile appeared on her face, somehow amused at this situation.
They know their limit. The amazing thing was Jin could control his desire as a man, and lover. It was pretty impressive to her. She was lucky to have found someone who is as understanding as him.
Without any hesitation, Kazuya clasped back her fingers onto Jin’s, walking together towards the restaurant.
“It wasn’t me!” Nakamaru flashed Koki an accusing look, pretending to be angry as he fastens his pace, leaving his friends alone. The others let out a laugh as they followed suit, gathering at said restaurant for breakfast.
This is their start of their new beginning.
~`~
“What did you two do last night that you overslept today?” Junno was spreading his bread with butter as he asked this question in a soft whisper. Ueda who sat beside him flashed out a smile at him, somehow pitying the couple who was suddenly bombarded with questions.
“Nothing special that you guys should know.” Kazuya whispered back, grinning in satisfaction when she saw the disappointed look on Junno’s face. It seems that he was expecting more than they’ve already explained, besides Koki.
“Seriously when you have a beauty lying next to you, you would feel like heaven.” Jin honestly said, as he glanced at Kazuya with so much love. “Am I right, my love?”
Kazuya blushed at Jin’s romantic sayings. She turned away from his gaze, concentrating on eating her food silently, though a smile couldn’t escape from her face, as she smiled brightly with happiness.
Nothing had happened the previous night, holding one another close as night turns to dawn which seems so short for them. When they’re together, time seems to have been frozen, neither of them wanting to wake up from that beautiful moment, and let go of the hold.
That was why they were late.
~`~
From that concert onwards, Kazuya was always with her beloved group, practicing, and hanging out with them most of the time. She spent her private moments with Jin, of course. They would spend time together like most couple does, cuddling in the living room as they watched a movie or go dating once in a while.
She was no longer afraid of the media as long as she has Jin supporting her, alongside her family and friends. It’s all that she could ask for, to have the encouragement from people she loves and care about.
The final concert for Hiroshima ended today as the current five members of KAT-TUN bowed deeply, waving their hands as a bright smile appeared on their faces at this accomplishment. They’re taking small steps to let Kazuya’s comeback taken into place. The concert at the Tokyo Dome seems so near, yet so far.
If luck’s on their side, Kazuya might even make a short appearance on the concerts before the Dome, perhaps simply showing on the encores, and singing along with them. That’s what they want to believe in, not knowing any new information about Kazuya’s return.
Johnny-san preferred to keep it a secret from them until the right time comes. Then every details will be revealed.
It’s worth the wait.
~`~
Kazuya walked out of the bathroom to meet with the others in the hallway. She had her sunglasses worn, hiding her beautiful brown eyes beneath it. Her long curly hair nicely tied into a ponytail. She gladly accepted Jin’s hand when he reached it out to her, flashing a sweet smile to him.
“Alright, let’s go!” Nakamaru said. He was the first to exit the entrance, as he soon disappeared. The couple walked alongside their friends, hand in hand, and towards the car park where their bus was. The crews followed slowly behind.
While walking, Kazuya suddenly felt the presence of paparazzi and within the next second, a flash of light and a clicking sound could be heard. Not wanting to divert her attention to the man with the camera, she glanced up at Jin instead, her heart beating nervously.
Tightening his hold, Jin simply flashed out an assurance smile as he quickened his pace, signaling his girlfriend to do so as well. They disappeared into the Johnny’s bus the next moment, causing the particular paparazzi to curse in irritation.
“We’ll go through this together.” Jin promised once they sat inside the bus, all the curtains were pulled down, hiding them from the outside world. Kazuya simply nodded, as she gives him a smile, holding his hand as her head rests comfortably on his shoulder.
Just act normally when paparazzi ever do caught you two or KAT-TUN together. Let them create whatever nonsense they want to, they will shut up when they’ve heard of the truth.
Sometimes the way Johnny-san handles business amuses her so much, he can be a funny man despite his serious appearance.
Closing her eyes, Kazuya fell into a deep slumber, with her beloved Jin by her side.
~`~
“Wow, how the hell do they manage to capture all these when we don’t even realize their appearance?” Nakamaru put down the tabloids, on the floor of their dance studio. The other members skimmed through the newspapers, which had hot issues on 6 member KAT-TUN, and candid pictures of them.
“That’s why they’re called paparazzi, idiot!” Koki exclaimed, hitting Nakamaru on the head. “I seriously want to laugh reading all this stupid nonsense that they’ve wrote. I really feel like killing someone right now.” He clasped his fists tightly, suddenly eyeing Junno for his target.
“Oiii, why me?” Junno defended himself, sitting far away from the bald man, engrossed in reading the piece of fake news.
“Koki, stop it.” Ueda scolded him, slapping him on the arms. “If anyone who should be annoyed, it’s them.” He pointed towards the couple on his side that unexpectedly holds a calm reaction towards all this.
“As long as we know the truth, then all this won’t hurt me.” Kazuya flashed out a smile, putting aside the newspaper. “I want to stand on the same stage as you guys again. I can’t wait for that day.”
Jin smiled, placing his arms over her shoulders, as he leaned against the wall. The other members couldn’t help it but smile as well, feeling proud of their youngest member. Her determination for a comeback is really strong.
No one, not even the reporters or the made-up stories, could hurt her.
~`~
As days passed by, different versions of rumors appeared on the tabloids, and newspapers, even the media got hold of the piece of hot information within a short moment of time, as expected. The entertainment business is full of related strings, it’s easy to get any information they want.
The usual stories are all about how Kazuya was seen alongside with her former group members, KAT-TUN. The other hot topic being written is on her relationship with Jin, speculating fake interpretations.
-Kamenashi Kazuya reunited with her ex-boyfriend, Akanishi Jin? They were seen together, holding hands and romantically involved with one another.-
-Kamenashi Kazuya was spotted with the current members of KAT-TUN. What does this mean?-
Today’s newspaper was a shock to everyone, especially the fans as they read the front cover, a large sized picture of the current image of Kazuya being printed. It was not a good quality picture, as it was a candid photo but still one would realize that it’s really Kazuya, taken from that perfect angle.
She looked different yet the same, more beautiful than ever, glowing with an elegant aura. She is the only Kamenashi Kazuya, there will be no other ‘K’ than her. She belongs with KAT-TUN.
-Kamenashi Kazuya to return to KAT-TUN?-
There were many reactions from the public. Some were happy if this rumor is proved to be true in the end, and that they’re really excited for it.
However, there’s still this minority of the fans who were against her return. It was only a small amount though; as the rest only wants to see their idols happy, bringing back their once lost shine as they stand together on the same stage.
Even if there’s one girl in KAT-TUN, it doesn’t matter to them. After all, she is still the same Kamenashi Kazuya they’ve all known since the junior days. They understood the friendship among them six, and would continue supporting KAT-TUN.
This would be a refreshing start.
~`~
Looking at all the big pile of bag that contains all her fan letters towards her, she couldn’t believe her eyes at the large amount. Her manager had said that there were two more large bags in the office. Kazuya was overwhelmed with the reactions she’s getting. This is hardly too impossible to believe in.
Randomly picking a letter, she slowly opened the envelope, revealing a nicely decorated letter, with red hearts decorated on it. At this point of time, Kazuya was alone in KAT-TUN’s personal dressing room, as they were involved with a magazine photo shoot.
It’s easier for her to reveal her innermost feelings when she’s alone.
Dear Kazuya-chan,
It’s okay to call you that, right? I hope you don’t mind. It was really a shock to me a year ago, knowing of your changed gender. I couldn’t accept it then because it’s hard to imagine the Kamenashi Kazuya I’ve always admired as a girl. It’s really hard. But I’ve thought about it. No matter whether you’re a girl or a boy, I’d still support you because even though there are changes around you, you’re still the same Kamenashi Kazuya that we all loved.
Hopefully the rumors of your comeback are true! I’ll patiently wait for the official news from the Jimusho! ^-^
From,
Riya
Feeling touched, Kazuya wiped a single tear that had fallen in the corner of her right eye whilst smiling. It feels good to know that there is someone who accepts her as she is right now.
Putting the letter gently on the dressing table, Kazuya picked another letter to read. She might not have the time, or the energy to reply to every letters she had received therefore Kazuya reminded herself to thank her fans at the upcoming Tokyo Dome Concert.
She spent her afternoon reading letter after letter in the dressing room, with no one to disturb her. It was really a peaceful feeling, as most of the letters supports her decision to come back to KAT-TUN.
That day … she had brought home some special letters that inspires her to go on. It is okay to be reminiscing about her past self, but she will treasure her present and current self.
I will create more memories with my second family … KAT-TUN.

And yeah, Kazuya still has many supporters despite having changed her gender. No matter what, they still love her. Thank you for reading, and please try to leave your comments, kay?
