Chapter 27
I have always wondered how my first night wit Chrystal would be. Would it be exciting and passionate or maybe awkward and silent? Then I wonder how the next day would be. Would we be too embarrass to even make contact or go on like nothing happened? Ah I hope that doesn’t happen because that would just give me a bad signal…like I wasn’t good enough! Was it her first time…? I’ve never asked her! But I feel like that’s a topic I shouldn’t pick on, about her past loves. She might’ve gone out with lots of boys before! American boys! Then I would just feel like I have to compete…and I don’t want to. I just want to know she’s all mine. She never asked me about my past loves either. What if she has read all those rumor magazines and believed every single one? Ah then she must think I’ve gone out with many girls! That’s not true…only a select few. If I ask her…then she would definitely ask me…ah let’s just not ask her. It’ll be a little mystery for now.
“Tegoshii~? What are you thinking about” Massu asked. I continued to smile as I stared at him. He backed away with a disgusted face, “That smile is digusting…”
Shgie quickly appared, “Disgusting smile?! Ah…it is quite disturbing…”
Koyama laughed, “He’s probably having a nice thought about Chrystal huh”
“Probably” Ryo said, “Do you think-“
“Naahhh” Yamapi said as he patted Ryo’s shoulder and Ryo just laughed.
“Eh eh? Think what?” Massu asked as he looked at Ryo and Yamapi. They ignord him though and he continued to eat his snack. I just sat there…smiling. I feel great. I wonder how Tinny is?
“So Herroooo” I said with a smile as I scooted closer to him on the couch. He looked at me curiously then backa t the TV screen…completely ignoring me. I laughed as I patted his shoulder, “Hey don’t ignore me~~!!” He looked again and then back at the TV but I could see a smirk on his face. Ah he’s doing this on purpose! I pouted and scooted away. He quickly glanced at me and saw me all the way at the other end. Now he scooted to me quickly and flashed a charming smile.
“Yesss?” he asked.
I looked away, “Nope not talking to you!”
Now he gently shook my shoulder, “Aww…” and I shook his hand away.
“Nope don’t hear you!” I said again trying to hide my smile. Hehe Hero touched me~.
“I’ll listen noowww!”
I looked at the TV and laughed, “That’s because it’s a commercial break!”
He looke at the TV then back at me, “That’s just a coincidence! See I’ll turn it off!” he said as he proved his point. I laughed at how hard he was trying.
“Okay I’ll tell you then” I said with a smile.
“Listening!” Hero said as he sat up straight.
“So there’s this party to go to…” I started and watched his face expression change. A small smile was forming on his face.
“A partyy” Hero echoed.
I nodded, “Mhmm and I want you to come with me!” I said with a big smile.
He smiled back, “Okay!”
My eyes got wide, “Really?!”
He laughed now, “Why do you look so surprised?” he asked as he kissed me. Woah…it felt…it’s been awhile.
“Because you’ve been busy with stuff that I’ve hardly seen you…”
“That doesn’t keep me away from parties with you!” Hero said as he brushed my cheek softly. The big smile on my face didn’t smile.
“It’s in two days…” I said slowly. Is he going to change his mind if it’s this soon?
“Okay” he answered simply, his smile never changing.
“That means we’ll have to leave for Japan tomorrow” I added.
“Okay” Hero answered simply again, “Then return to Korea?”
I bit my lip as I nodded slowly, “Back to Korea…”
Hero smiled as he kissed me again, “Okay. Do I have to dress up and become a handsome man?”
I laughed now, “Yes!”
“And you a beautiful woman?”
“…Are you saying I’m not always beautiful?” I asked with a pout.
Hero’s big smile lessened a little, “No no! I didn’t mean that! Wait…are you saying I’m not handsome all the time then?!”
I laughed as I poked his cheek, “Just kidding!” and I got up. He looked up at me with a confused face and could feel him staring at me as I walked away. Yess! Hero is going to the party with me! I quickly went into my room and grabbed my cellphone. There was a missed call from Chrystal and a text! I opened the text.
Mimi! I have something REALLY IMPORTANT to tell you! Remember that nightgown you told me to pack…? Let’s just say that was a big factor.
My eyes got wide and I got confused. What nightgown? Chrystal sleeps in nightgowns? Whaat? And factor to what? Why don’t I know anything right now?! I quickly dialed Chrystal’s number. She’s probably not doing anything…since she just a “staff” member. As I suspected, she quickly answered. What a slacker!
“Mimi!” she said happily.
“What was the important news?!”
She laughed, “Well. You know that nightgown…”
“No” I said.
She laughed again, “Oh…well! You made me pack a nightgown because you thought it would be funny if Tegoshi saw me wearing it…”
I tried hard to remember then it came back to me! “OOOH! THAT NIGHTGOWN! ..WHAT HAPPENED?” I asked now with a big smile as I sat down on the bed.
Chrystal laughed and talked in a soft voice, “Well Tegoshi definitely saw me”
I gasped, “You didn’t….”
Chrystal just laughed.
I gasped again, “HOW WAS IT?! WAIT is that awkward? NO TELL ME!”
Chrystal laughed again, “Uhhh….i’ll tell you later…”
“No tell me now! Ooh are there people around?”
“Yeeaahhh”
I laughed, “Oh okay. Tell me later then. YAY you’re not the most innocent one out of VMXCR anymore!”
“That’s…great?” she asked with a laugh.
“OH! I have good news too! I asked Hero to go the party and he said yes!”
“YAY! But isn’t that expected? Now like your own boyfriend would reject you for an invite!”
I nodded, “Yeeahh. But he’s just been busy and … yeah”
“Did you tell him it’s in 2 days and in Japan?” she asked like as if I wouldn’t.
“Of course!” I said with a laugh.
“Okay” and then I heard a loud noise in the background and big commotion.
“Ah you sound busy at your end! Go do your ‘work’!”
“Okayy” she said half-heartedly.
“BYE! LOVE YOU!” I said trying to cheer her up.
“Thanks!! Love you tooooo” and we both hung up at the SAME TIME because we’re just that cool. Let’s…tell Cindy next that Hero is coming to the party! Is it bad that I feel like it’s such big news?
Finally! Time to get off of work and there’s something fun going on tonight too! I changed back into my regular clothes and left the dressing room. I also said farewells to the staff members and such like my manager. She seemed very happy with my performance today. I guess I did a very good job shooting that commercial. I left the building and stared up at the dimming sky. A warm breeze blew by, making me brush the bangs out of my eye again. I smiled as I sighed of relief and walked down the street where it started to get more crowded. I reached the meeting place and stood against the wall with my hands clasped together. I looked around waiting. When will he show up? I checked my phone and it was already 5 minutes after our meeting time.
“Sorry for keeping you waiting” Shige said as I looked up and smiled!
“You’re here!” I said with a soft laugh.
He let out a soft laugh too, “Yeah sorry. Koyama wanted me to go something and I had to tell him I can’t then he began to question me a lot…”
I laughed, “Well as long as you’re here now! What should we do?”
Shige looked around trying to think of ideas. He had a hat and sunglasses on. I guess he doesn’t look very recognizable…but he’s definitely still eye catching. “How about we go and eat something?” he suggested.
“Okay! I just got out of work anyways and am hungry” I said as we started to walk.
“How was work?” he asked.
“I did a very good job shooting my commercial. Maybe you’ll see me on TV soon” I answered with a smile.
Shige smiled back, “So it’ll be like ‘Saki’s Come Back’ huh?”
I laughed, “I guess you can say that. I have to start off somewhere again right”
Shige nodded, “Good for you” and I smiled back. Simple words…but I know full of meaning. He seemed to have a destination in mind so I just followed him.
“I know lots of people ask you about work and relationships…so let me ask you about your relationships too!” I said with a laugh.
Shige looked at me confused but laughed again, “Okay…?”
I nudged him gently, “How are you and Cindy?”
“Ehh? What do you mean?” he asked. Come on…I thought last time I ran into them it was already a bigger hint. Maybe she rejected him and went out with the other guy instead? He was pretty good looking too. Too bad I don’t remember his name…although he does look familiar. Where have I seen him? Actor…? No I think I would remember that clearly.
“You knooww. Ask her out, make sure she’s not with anyone else…anything!” I said.
Shige shook his head, “No? We’re just friends…I don’t have time for relathionships”
I laughed now, “Lies! If you have time to eat out with me you have time for relationship”
Shige had a smirk on his face, “Even these are rare. To have dinners with friends”
I nodded, “Surree whatever you say”
He glanced at me then looked ahead. We stopped and waited for the light to change. It was silent until he suddenly spoke. “You sound like you don’t believe me”
I stared straight ahead as the light changed and we begun to cross the street, “Because it sounds to me like you’re not trying”
“That’s because I personally don’t want to be in one right now”
“Even if you like the girl?”
“Yes”
“Are you that hurt from your last relationship?” I asked now as I looked at him.
He looked back at him, “It’s complicated”
I let out a sarcastic laugh as I looked away and into the window. Instantly it caught my eye and I pointed at it. “Is this where we are eating?” I asked softly as I looked up at him big eyed.
He nodded, “Yeah. There’s really good food”
“You’re too late” I said bluntly.
“What?” Shgie asked confused, “They’re closed?”
“No stupid” I said in English as I pointed at two people near the bar. They were happily eating, laughing, and stealing food from each other. Giving off the perfect aura of a couple. Aren’t they afraid of catching attention?!
“Ooh this tastes really good!” I said as I took more of Aiba’s food…and more. He pushed my chopsticks away with his.
“Stop eating all of my food!” he said with a laugh.
I pushed my dish towards him, “We can switch!”
“Don’t want to!” Aiba said as he pushed my dish closer towards him. I laughed as I reached over. He laughed as he moved away some more. I gave up and ate my own delicious food.
“My food is JUST as good” I said as I ate some and put on a happy face.
“Really?” Aiba said as he peered over. I could tell he was getting interested.
“Yup” i answered as I stared at him and ate some. He got closer.
“Can I have a bite?” he asked with a smile.
“No” I answered and continued to eat.
“Aww! I’ll let you have my dish then!” he offered.
“No” I answered again.
“I’ll pay!” he offered again.
“You’re already paying!” I said with a laugh.
“…Oh right” Aiba said with a laugh. I slid my dish towards him and smiled.
“I’m full” I said as I sat back.
“Really?” he asked surprised, “You didn’t eat that much”
I pointed at him, “Because I ate more than half of yours!”
Aiba looked at him plate a little sad, “YEAH YOU DID!” and he dug into my plate of food. Aww he’s so cute stuffing his face~.
“Soo remember the party is in 2 days” I said reminding him.
He nodded, his mouth full of food, “I know I know. I made sure my night was clear that day”
“Good! I don’t want to suddenly not have a date”
“That would be awful~” Aiba said. He was definitely more concentrated on eating. I sipped my water as I thought about rest of VMXCR. Let’s see…Vicky will probably go with Ryo right? Ah…but what if he has a concer that night? Then that means Chrystal also can’t go with Tegoshi! Maybe…they can go together!! Wanda is probably going to go with Nino and Mimi is going with Hero. She told me so! She sounded very happy.
“Mimi’s going to go with Hero” I randomly said.
Aiba looked at me confused as he wiped his mouth. I looked at the plates and they were BOTH clean and empty. Holy crap he eat’s fast. “What?” he asked.
“Mimi is going with Hero” I said again.
“Hero?”
“Her boyfriend”
“…So?” Aiba as confused as he drank some tea.
“I don’t know” I answered truthfully.
Aiba laughed now as he patted my head, “You’re quite weird huh”
I tilted my head, “I just have a feeling”
“…Are you sick?!” he asked.
I laughed now, “NO! I have a feeling that won’t happen. But then again I also have a feeling that I feel like I’m getting followed sometimes AND weird feelings in the dark room AND…”
Aiba covered my mouth, “I get it I get it. If you tell me anymore I’ll worry” he said with a laugh as he uncovered my mouth.
I laughed, “Okayyy. Are we done?” I ask.
“Yup” Aiba said as he paid the bill. We both left the restaurant. It was warm and the sun barely making any light. A smiled formed on my face as I grabbed out my cellphone. “Hold on Aiba” I said. Aiba looked back at me confused.
“Hello Akira? I have a favor to ask you~” I said with a big smile.
“Don’t want to” Akira answered right away.
“Rolanda!” I said as I watched her strum her guitar. She looked up at me confused and then smiled.
“Wha-at?” she asked in her funny way. I smiled as I pulled up a chair in front of her.
“Can you move into my house sooner?” I asked.
“Why?” she asked as he put down her guitar.
“Because…”
“Is something wrong that I should move in sooner?” she asked worried now.
“No no” I said as I shook my head. I sat back in my seat and bit my lip softly then leaned forward again and smiled. I scrunched my face a little as I grabbed her hand, “Well you see….i want you to”
“Eh?” she asked with a soft laugh.
“Becaausee~ I want to see you more”
“You see me now!” she said with a laugh again.
“More at home!”
“But I didn’t tell Cindy I’ll be moving out this soon” she said softly.
“Well it’s only a few days early!”
“She might not be ready for me to leave…”
I laughed as I held her hand tighter, “I can just send that Aiba idiot to her and she’ll be fine!”
She made a funny face but had a michievious smile on her face, “We’ll see~”
I sighed, “Can I just take that as a yes?” and she laughed as she took her hands away from my and grabbed the guitar. She strummed a few keys and looked at me.
“We will see~” she sang as she continued to strum her guitar. I crossed my arms and stared at her. She was smiling even more and I made a small pout. Then she just laughed at me. She LAUGHED at me!
Maannn tomorrow I actually have work! And I’ve just gotten use to being lazy and seeing Tegoshi and rest of NEWS all day! Whyyy. But that just means I’ll be getting money! Which means I can go SHOPPING! YAY MORE CLOTHES! I finished packing my bag of clothes that I’ll need. Since I have work all day tomorrow…then the next day is the party and NEWS will be switching hotels…I’ll have to bring my bag! Tegoshi came out of the bathroom and looked at me confused.
“Are you going somewhere?” he asked.
I nodded, “I have work tomorrow”
“Eh? Does it require that much clothing?” he asked as he looked at me bag.
I laughed, “Did you forget that we have a party to go to and you’re switching hotels?”
“Oh…right!” Tegoshi said and smiled, “I remember of course!” I laughed at him. I know he’s lying but let’s let him think I don’t know! He grabbed my laptop and started to go on web. I don’t mind if he uses my laptop! Hehe~ Tegoshi touches my laptop. He laughed at first when he heard the start up voice, “Hey sexy come talk to me” and instantly copied it. Of course I heard it and laughed. I want him to say that again! I love my laptop! I heard my phone ringing and I spun around trying to look for it. I found it under a pile of clothes that I forgot to pack. I lookd at the caller ID and it was…manager!
“Hello?” I said.
“How are you Chrystal?” he answered.
“Good! And you?” I asked.
“Good good. Reminding you of the charity event in 2 days” he said.
I smiled, “I know! I’m bringing Tegoshi!” I said. Tegoshi quickly looked at me when I mentioned his name and I just smiled.
“REALLY? That must be exciting. Aren’t you afraid paparazzi will get you two…?” he asked.
“…Oh right…” I said, “Would it matter?”
He let out a sigh, “I don’t know. I guess you could introduce him as a close friend and didn’t want to go to a party alone…”
I laughed, “Then what is rest of VMXCR going to say? They’re all bringing their boyfriends too!”
He let out another sigh, “…A lot of close friends”
I laughed, “That’s such a horrible excuse!”
“I know! Ah don’t worry. I’ll take care of the press and you just have phone okay? But don’t cause TOO much trouble you understand?”
I giggled, “Yeaahh I know!”
“…Somehow I don’t believe that. Who is Mimi bringing?” he asked.
“..Obviously Hero!”
He laughed, “Oh right. Well, I’m about to call her. OH important news”
“What?” I asked.
“You’ve got an increased of work. Soo…after tomorrow and the party, you’re going to be going to work more again. You’re little fun time with little Tegoshi and NEWS will be lessened”
“AWW WHY” I asked loudly. Tegoshi quickly spun around again and gave me a weird look.
He laughed, “I jus told you! WORK! Trust me distance will do some good as well”
“I don’t want tooo~” I whined. Tegoshi got up from his seat and stared me curiously. I smiled as I turned away.
“Well that’s too bad. Whose boss? I’m boss. Yeaahh I’m boss”
I coughed, “Hardly” I said softly.
“WHAT?” he said loudly now.
I laughed evily, “BYE!” and I hung up. I tossed the phone on the bed and I turned around to find Tegoshi RIGHT there. He poked my cheeks and stared at my eye level. I smiled and he just continued to give me a weird look. Ahh it’s so cute!
Sometimes a boss just really has to take care of his own girls. Well I guess a boss always have too but there are days when they can slack off and enjoy themselves! Let’s see Cindy and Rolanda seem fine. Chrystal also seem fine. Now there’s just the Mimi in Korea. How is she in Korea? Well I haven’t received any trouble about her so I guess that’s fine. I dialed in her number and held the phone in place with my shoulder as I started to sort papers ot the side. I picked up the a big calendar book and pointed at the party date. Ah I can’t even go to the party myself~
“Hello?” Mimi answered in a soft voice.
“Hello Mimi” I answered.
“How are you boss?” she asked.
“Good and you?”
“Fine” she answered.
“Are you having fun in Korea?” I asked now as I put the calendar book down and stared at some scattered paper.
“It’s okay” she answered simply. Ehh that sound doesn’t right.
“Are you excited for the party then? I heard you’re bringing Hero…”
“YES! I’m excited! And I get to see everyone!” she said happily. I guess she doesn’t like Korea as much as I thought.
I laughed, “That’s good. There’ll be plenty of people and you girls can show off in your dresses!”
“Oh…there’s that too!” Mimi said with a laugh as well.
“Ah, pack more clothes. After the party you won’t be returning to Korea” I said as I read some papers.
“WHAT?” Mimi asked confused and alerted.
I laughed as I stared at the papers now, “Don’t worry. It’s because of work. You’re going to have more work with Chrystal”
“REALLY?” she asked excited now, “Like what?!”
“Photoshoots…interviews…things like that” I said as I put the papers down and looked around for more detail. Ah…I’ll find them later.
“Oooh that sounds cool. How long will I stay in Japan then?” she asked.
I leaned forward and looked down at the paper I was holding before, “Not decided” I answered.
“Oh…okay” Mimi said.
“Well, have fun at the party girl” I said cheerfully.
She laughed, “Thanks”
“Good night”
“Night!” she said happily and I hung up. I sighed as I put the phone down and stared at the piece of paper. Well seems like she doesn’t know yet. I picked up the piece of paper and reread it, making me a little worried again. I pushed the papers aside that came along with it.
“SM entertainment my ass” I said angrily as I let out a sigh and brushed my hair back. I’m so tired~! I leaned back in my seat and tapped my finger ontop of the magazine that was buried under the papers. I stared at it from where I was and let out another sigh. Now what am I going to do with this problem. Why do these girls have to cause so much trouble!!
pedophile? no i'm just your lover
