"You're still doing it wrong," Hikaru pulls the guitar from Keito's hands and demonstrates the movement. Keito's brows furrowed as he observed Hikaru's fingers, taking mental notes. They've been doing this for more than an hour and Hikaru had yet to be satisfied with Keito's efforts.
Keito takes his guitar back and tries to copy Hikaru's movements, his concentration broken when Hikaru taps his forearm at something he did wrong. Keito nods and he tries it again.
"Try it from the top," Hikaru folds his arms and sits back.
Keito licks his lips and nods again. He plays it from the beginning to the end with a serious look on his face and when he finally ends the song, he feels the last vibrations of his strings ebb before looking up at Hikaru. He tries not to be too hopeful, not with that closed off look on Hikaru's face.
He releases the breath he didn't know he was holding when Hikaru broke into a smile. Hikaru stands up and pats his shoulder, "just a little more practice Keito, and you'd be able to do it perfectly!"
Keito flushes at the compliment and gives back a small smile in reply, "I'll do my best."
Hikar guffaws, "anyway, I have to be on some location shoot in a few hours so I have to go."
Keito bows his head, "thanks for the hard work."
"Good job Keito! Thanks for your hard work. Bye!" Hikaru leaves hurriedly and Keito practices the guitar one more time.
Yuuto strolls into the room and sees Keito still practicing the guitar, "Keito!"
Keito looks up from his guitar and smiles, "Yuuto."
"Hikaru-kun is so mean!" Yuuto cries, "he keeps on bullying you about playing the guitar better!"
"No he's not," Keito shakes his head vehemently, "he just wants JUMP to perform to the best of our abilities!"
"But he's not as strict as with the other members," Yuuto points out, "he's not that harsh on Inoo-chan or me or Chinen or Yabu-kun or Takaki-kun or Yama-chan or Ryuutarou or Dai-chan, just Keito."
Keito shrugs his shoulders, the benevolent smile on his face telling a story Yuuto couldn't understand, "I don't mind Yuuto. I want to perform as best as I can as well."
He stands up and puts the guitar back on the stand, "anyway, I'll practice some other time. Shall we eat now?"
Yuuto brightens at the suggestion and they quickly make it out of the room.
