“We’ll start in five, four, three, two…” and the AD raised his index finger to represent “one”.
The members did their assigned roles as written on the script.
The first part was very promising. All did their tasks accordingly and exceedingly good. The Winter Concert was a week away and they were making their last minute preparations. Their leader then twitched in the middle of the rehearsal.
A very unsatisfied director shook his head and stood up.
“Cut!” Kota Yabu shouted as he motioned Hikaru Yaotome to come to him.
“Okay! Five minute break everyone!” Hikaru said while walking towards Yabu. Hikaru can sense Yabu’s disappointment by the mere look on his face.
“ ‘Sup?” said the joker of the group who’s also the AD for the Winter Con.
“Something’s not right.” The leader said as he examined the arrangement of the songs. “…’School Kakumei’ comes right after ‘Dreams Come True’? They’re not that similar and it might cause confusion to the audience. It would also ruin the main flow of the concert.” He continued.
Hikaru scratched his head after hearing their leader’s complaint.
“And you’re only saying this now, why?” The jester asked as if challenging their captain.
“Because you only made this change now,” their leader replied calmly “and you haven’t consulted it with me yet.”
“I so did. You weren’t listening… again!” the jester shouted a bit irritated.
“Riiiiiiiight. You consulted it with me while I was asleep, right?” Yabu said jokingly.
“There you go again! Blah, blah, blah, blah!”
Yabu then motioned JUMP to gather around him, ignoring Hikaru.
“Gah! Tyrant!” said the AD as he stormed towards their leader.
“There’s going to be a change in the arrangement of the songs.” Yabu ordered.
“Eh? Isn’t it too late for that, now?” Ryosuke asked with a questioning look on his face.
“Yeah, and besides, we’ve arranged the props, lighting and microphone according to the present arrangement of the songs. It’ll be too much of a hassle to make any changes now.” Kei said as if speaking for the rest of the members.
“Look, guys…” Yabu started with a soft tone “the audience’s comfort and understanding is a priority. I don’t think it’s impossible to change it now. Besides, we’re not doing this for ourselves.”
Yabu Kota: Hey! Say! JUMP’s eldest brother. He always had a way of convince the other members. Of course, their respect on him was earned, not implemented. He deserved being looked up to not only because of his ideas but also because of his experiences.
“The reason why I did that arrangement was because the props for ‘Dreams Come True’ and ‘School Kakumei’ is almost the same.” Hikaru finally said calmly.
“You’re thinking practical again. Yes, fine, it’s easier that way but it won’t make any sense at all.”
“Yes it can. They are somewhat similar.”
“Somewhat…” Yabu repeated mockingly.
“We can make out something!”
“Can you think of one, right now?”
“There they go again…” Daiki said hopelessly as he took his mp3 player from his pocket. “We won’t be able to do anything if they continue on like this.”
“Recently, Hikari-chan and Yabu-chan have been arguing like this frequently.” Yuri said as sat on Yuya’s lap.
“Yeah, and usually Hikaru looses the fight.” Yuya said while placing his arms around the little boy’s waist.
“It also usually takes them forever to stop. Neither wants to lose to the other.” Yuto sighed while looking at his two senpais.
The two leaders continued throwing back enraged statements against each other on the way to the hotel that night. They had to finish their argument that day or else the group would have had a hard time keeping up.
“I told you, being practical wouldn’t help us make a better concert!” said their leader.
“Doing that doesn’t make that much of a change anyways! It’s almost the same!”
“Yes it does. I’m telling you, it’s for the better of our performance!”
After an hour of travel, they arrived in the hotel, but the two were still fighting endlessly even after the ride. Their manager gave them five keys, meaning they had to share a room with one member. Yuya made an attempt to but in between the two to ask them whom they wanted as a roommate, but his effort remained futile, the two were still caught up in their battle. Instead, Yuya just led them into a room, and both followed, unintentionally.
“Fine, you guys stay in this room.” He said as he closed the door.
“For the umpteenth time, I said that to you while we were eating lunch and you weren’t sleeping!” Hikaru said as he dropped his bags. They were now alone in the room.
“I told you, I don’t remember a thing. You’re making it up, aren’t you?” Yabu said as he grinned. This argument was obviously childish but Yabu’s enjoying every bit of it. Hikaru, on the other hand, hates to lose. They complimented each other, making the conversation impossible to stop.
“Stop being a child and act your age Mr. I-don’t-want-to-confess-my-mistake!” the smaller boy said as he neared the bed.
“You’re the one who’s not acting your age. Why make a sudden change anyways? You’re too careless.” The taller one said, trailing behind the smaller one.
“Whatever Strawberry-face.” Hikaru said with a wide grin.
That was it. It was the end of their fight. If things didn’t stop now, it will never end. Strawberry-face? Yabu? No way. It annoyed him being called that. His feelings got the better of him.
He then pushed Hikaru out of the way and walked towards the door.
“Why are you running away, ichigo-chan?” Hikaru said with a smirk.
He’d make Hikaru wish he didn’t say that. He stormed towards the smaller boy with a tight fist, ready to punch when…
THUD…
The floor’s carpet caused Yabu to fall on top of Hikaru, who found himself kissing him. They weren’t able to move for seconds. They stared at each other in shock.
“Yabu-kun, Hikaru-kun, time to eat.” Yamada said as he entered the room with the other members.
Shoot…
Eight pairs of eyes were now glued to the two profiles on the bed.
