Fluffy
romance
G
An
idol from AKB48 and HSJ seem to have taken a liking to each other.
A/N
# 1: There are a lot of switches in the kind of writing style. I’m not really
sure if it works. I hope they do.
#
2: Another rare!pair. I think they’re cute. If they ended up together, wouldn’t
their kids be absolutely stunning? (^_^)
#
3: Does Akimoto like pastries? I hope she does.
#
4: Title was decided a day later and was lifted from Christina Aguilera’s song Elastic Love.
Inoo
first met Akimoto when he was out shopping for protractors and T-rulers. He was
just backing up from the racks of magazines featuring Hey!Say!JUMP when he
collided into the other idol. The Meiji student was so sure she would yell at
him for ruining her immaculate white shirt by sending her to the floor.
It
then came out as a big surprise when she merely blinked up at him and said,
“Oh, you’re from that Johnny’s Heisei group.”
“Uh,
yeah,” Inoo stuttered and quickly picked himself off her. He did not want to
make things awkward by lying halfway above her for more than ten seconds.
“I’m
Inoo Kei from Hey!Say!JUMP.”
Akimoto
smiled and Inoo felt his heart beat twice. “Akimoto Sayaka. Nice to meet you.”
As
they shook hands, Inoo vowed to at least get her number. After, of course, he
has invited her to a date as amends for the collision.
“I
don’t want to date an idol,” Akimoto’s voice was sharp and clear. Not exactly
the first thing the boy wanted to hear as she arrived at their meeting place.
Inoo
looked at her incredulously. “But you’re an idol.”
“Exactly
my point.”
Two
days later, they meet again. This time, it is unintentional.
“I
never pegged you to be a coffee person,” Akimoto said as Inoo brought a
steaming cup of café noir to his lips.
“I
always knew you liked pastries that much,” Inoo on the other hand smirked, his
eyes scaling over the plate of crepes, waffles, and tarts in front of Akimoto.
Akimoto
pouted childishly and Inoo decided the girl was not much different from him.
Two
days became a week. The week turned to a month. The month reached its seventh
mark.
Inoo
was seated in front of his piano, fingers slightly trembling and palms a little
bit sweaty. Akimoto was beside him, humming the melody she could from the music
sheet.
“When
did you write this?” Akimoto asked.
“About
a month ago maybe,” the boy replied as he tentatively placed his fingers atop
the ivory keys.
“What’s
it about?”
Inoo
knew Akimoto knew the answer to that. He responded anyway.
“It’s
about how boundaries can make or break a love that seems to be discomfited
right from the start.”
A
loud wail met his ears as Inoo picked up his phone.
“Keiii~.
I lost my music sheets!”
“And
you’re calling me because?” Inoo sighed.
“Because,
because,” Akimoto started but then stopped.
Another
second passed and the girl squealed again.
“Kei,
I don’t know where my music sheets are!”
The
boy idol sighed again and he missed the mirth passing by Yabu’s and Yaotome’s faces.
“Have
you checked your dresser?”
“Yes
and they’re not there!”
“Bag?”
“Not
there either,” Akimoto whined.
“Dining
table?”
“Not
there.”
Inoo
gave a long bout of exhalation. “Have you checked under your pillows?”
“Ah!
I haven’t.” Scrambling and footsteps were heard on the other end of the line.
“Why didn’t I think of that?”
“Beats
me,” Inoo muttered.
After
more shuffling and scuttling, Akimoto yelled out.
“It’s
here! It’s here, it’s here. Kei, it’s here!”
Inoo
could not help but smile at the novelty of her laughter. Takaki and Arioka in
the background were smirking and thinking of ways to use the current weakness
to their advantage.
“Uwaa~”
Morimoto exclaimed as Akimoto sent a girl toppling over in the movie that was
currently playing in Okamoto’s laptop.
“Akimoto-san
is quite scary,” Yamada remarked as he joined the crowd watching.
“What
do you think of her Inoo-chan?” Chinen asked as he brandished his mobile phone
in the boy’s face.
Inoo
merely shrugged and said, “I think she’s cute.”
Akimoto
turned to look at Inoo as she heard what he had to say of her in the video. It
makes her wonder how and why the boy Chinen had her number and e-mail.
“You
think I’m cute?”
Inoo
fixed his gaze on Akimoto.
“I
think you’re beautiful when you smile from the heart.
I
think you’re gorgeous when you show a face that says you will give it your all.
You’re
sexy as you look at each music sheet with such concentration just so you could
sing them out perfectly.
You
are cute when you’re all shy about a failed joke.
You
are endearing as your giggles when you bounce around singing at the top of your
voice.
I
think you’re pretty when you look at me with eyes full of warmth.
You
are simply stunning and the only one that can make me feel and say all of these.”
“You’re
a Johnny’s,” Akimoto sniffed as tears started to fall from her eyes. “How can
you make me cry like this?”
“I’m
a genuine person Sayaka.”
And
he kissed her gently pulling her close.
