Singing My Way Forward

[echoing_queen]

Kouhino Hibiki, still gaining popularity as an idol, stood in the booth and adjusted her headphones. She was singing what would be her next single, conferring with the people operating the audio. "I want to do the verse one more time on that part," she says with a smile, nodding as the beat comes on again. She parts her lips and begins to sing.

...Where did Yaten and Leader go now? The Three Lights 'number one handsome boy' Taiki Kou looks around himself, mouth twisted to one side half in curiosity, half in frustration. Maybe they had gone ahead inside?

He notices the girl sitting on the bench. He comes a step closer, two, bending and placing his hands on his knees so he can see her a bit better. "If the crackers are so bad, you shouldn't eat them," he suggests, looking as if he's trying to hide the smile threatening to show itself.

Hibiki blinked, looking up at the handsome boy and almost blushing. Was he working at the television studio nearby? "I agree," she finally replies, managing a smile, "But I had to eat something; I have more recording to get through."

"Ohh!" he straightens. "A new talent~?" he guesses, lifting a finger to his lips and eying her up and down. In a playful manner, mind you. He winks at her. "You definitely should eat, keep up your strength. Being an idol is hard work." A sly glance to the crackers. "Trying to keep your figure?" he asks. It's not uncommon, and even less so in the idol world.

Hibiki chuckled a bit. "That obvious, huh?" she replies, "I wish I could be one of those girls who can eat anything and not gain a pound."

"Nope," Taiki answers. "I have a lot of experience in the idol world." He invites himself to take a seat on the other side of the bench and crosses his legs casually. "But it's not obvious. You're very beautiful."

A brief moment, just enough to wait for a reaction. He holds his hand up then. "Ah--but don't worry. I tell that to everyone." As rude as it sounds, the look suggests he might mean well. Somehow.
