In order to relax a little, I’ve decided to try writing some one-shots instead of another looong chaptered fic :)
One of the first ideas that came in my mind is this Song Fic.
Actually, I’ve never liked this kind of fics, but I’ve recently found an old song that I like a lot… and I've decided to give it a try! ;)
This is really short, so please have a look and let me know your thoughts about it!
This is not an Arashi’s song, but I'm giving you
this link so you can listen at it (I recommend it because it’s very very nice, and you'll enjoy more this fic) ^^

Rating: G

----- ----- -----
Aiba was taking a little break from their rehearsals, while they were practicing for their next concert.
He was lost in thought, with his mind filled with Sho's images as that day they were particularly close…
Time is gonna take my mind
and carry it far away, where I can fly
The depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you
It was hard for him just to stare at his bandmate without saying anything.
Day after day they were seeing each other for work: TV shows, rehearsals or concerts… then, at the end of the day, a simple “goodbye” or “goodnight”, “Thank you for your hard work” and they would part again.
If I were to be alone, silence would rock my tears
'cause it's all about love, and I know better
How life is a waving feather
Aiba was terribly afraid that someday Sho would have left while holding hands with someone else…
How much time was left before Sho would start dating someone?
And when that day would have come… how was going to change their relationship?
Would have he been still allowed to keep looking at his bandmate in that way?
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I know that I'll be leaving soon
Aiba was now hugging Sho, as he threw himself onto his body, trembling a little…
“I love you” he whispered softly
Then, he stepped back immediately as if his body was burning.
And it probably was.
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And you see that I can't stop shaking
He looked at the older man waiting for a reply, some kind of reaction.
But Sho was simply staring at him, speechless.
No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
The younger man couldn't bear that look, so shocked and upset.
So he looked away, trying to regain his composure…
'cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh could burst it, if it were a bubble
But actually he was terribly afraid to have ruined everything.
Their friendship, their relation as bandmates and colleagues…
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle
Would have it been better if he had simply kept on dreaming?
Confessing… was worth it?
But it was too late now. He already said out loud something that couldn't possibly be ignored.
So I put my arms around you, around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
It was too hard for him to hold back, so he hugged Sho once again.
He'd done that countless times, jokingly… now he just wanted to enjoy his presence the more as the could.
Because probably it would have been his last chance to do so.
My eyes are on you, they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
He looked at his friend once again, asking silently for an answer.
How was he going to reply?
I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
He shooked his head and came back to reality.
He would have never dared to do that for real…
So he stood up and went back to their rehearsals, joining his bandmates.
Because music was the main thing that they had in common… and while they were dancing, he could really be near Sho more than anyone else.
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
And maybe someday, with the help of time, he would have gathered a little more courage…
Time still exists…
Time still exists…
