[One-shot] My Life
Well, today is my day off from school because it's Thanksgiving!! YAY! Turkey and mashed potatoes... YUM! Oh, I can't forget the pumpkin pie too! Ah, I'm getting hungry right now. I'm going out to a relative's house for dinner. I hope they have turkey and pumpkin pie. (>_<)
I decided to post up a one-shot because I'm bored and I don't have to worry about anything today. I'll be posting up the next chapter of Winter Tears on the 15th. This one-shot has Nino and a Original Character. I hope you like it. It's really sweet at the end and I based this one-shot from an Arashi's song from the album, Time.

My Life
“Hikaru-chan, can you help me in the kitchen?” My adopted mother called out to me. I turned my head and smiled.
It has been 17 years since my real parents died in a plane crash. I was the only one to survive the crash. My parents took me to America for a family vacation. They wanted to spend time with me before they were caught up with their work. My parents worked as producers for a television company. They both met each other at a Christmas party that the television station held.
As people went to say their prayers to my parents, I was at the front. Not knowing what happened to my parents. I didn’t cry at all because I thought that they would come back for me.
I was really young at the time so I was adopted by a lovely couple who couldn’t have children. They adopted me and brought love that my parents would have given to me.
My life flashed at me so quickly. By the time I was able to cry over my parents’ death, I turned 20 years old.
I decided to create a blog to write stories about my life. I named it “Sparkling Heart”.
I was finally able to cry today. I don’t know why my tears only come out know but I know that something in my life will change. Will I be able to change my future? Will there be a miracle in my life?
I helped out my adopted parents’ restaurant. They owned a family restaurant. While I was cleaning up a table, someone came up to me.
“Excuse me, where are your washrooms?” I turned around and smiled. “Go down the hall and it’s on your left.” He nodded his head and I turned my head back to where I was cleaning up the table.
“Hikaru-chan?” He said. I nodded and I tossed my head back. “Hai.” He smiled and took off his sunglasses and hat.
“It’s me, Kazu. I was always in your class in high school.” I gasped and widened my eyes. “Kazu-kun, it’s nice to see you again. Well… I always see you on TV.”
He laughed and said. “You work here?” I nodded my head and said. “My parents own this place.” He nodded his head slowly to me.
Nino was always in my class in high school. We always thought it was fate or a miracle that we were in the same class together. I used to hang out with him and our friends but he was always busy with being an idol.
I walked away from the table and said. “Sit down. I’ll get you a drink.” He sat down and I went to fill up a glass of soda for him.
“Ah, you know what I like still.” He grinned and took a sip out of the soda. I nodded my head and sat in the couch across from Nino.
“How are you? Do you still talk with our old classmates?” Nino asked me. I nodded my head slowly and said. “I met some people last Saturday. We went out for karaoke.”
Nino chuckled and said. “It sounds like a goukon to me.” I giggled along with him. “How are you? You must be pretty busy with being an idol and all.” He looked away and his face turned into a frown.
“Maa.. Today is my only day off before I leave for Arashi’s nationwide tour.” Nino picked up his soda and drank the soda from his straw.
“At least you get to travel around Japan, meanwhile I’m stuck here helping out the restaurant.” I giggled. Nino nodded to me and showed me his adorable smile.
“Remember you asked me what job I wanted while we were filling out our "My Future" papers..” I asked him. He nodded his head slowly to me. “You wanted to become a yankee.” Nino and I laughed with each other. I nodded and he took a napkin from the napkin dispenser.
“I was really a baka back then. It’s been 8 years since we graduated. It feels like it was only yesterday.” I muttered. Nino giggled and leaned in closer to me. “You actually like those old days? I was so happy when we graduated. Have you decided what you are going to do in the future now?” He asked me.
I shook my head. I wasn’t sure of my future. It was full of possibilities. I wanted to work at the family restaurant for the rest of my life, because my adopted parents are getting older and they don’t have the strength than before.
“Well, I better go before I miss my work. Ja ne.” Nino got up and waved good-bye to me. I smiled and waved back. I got up and picked up his glass. He finished the glass of soda. I thought he wanted to find the washroom..
Later that day, I decided to post up an entry in my blog.
Today I met my old high school classmate again. He was busy as usual but at least we had some time to talk to each other. Will he come see me again?
As days passed, Nino kept stopping by the restaurant. I would give him a free meal because his excuses would be “I came here to see you so you can give me free meals” or “I didn’t bring my wallet today.”
I always wrote in my blog about my day with Nino and what I felt about my day.
One day, he invited me and our old classmates for a little party at his apartment. He ordered sushi and lots of food for the party. We drank, talked to each other and did some singing to celebrate this occasion.
After the party ended, I stayed behind to help out with cleaning up Nino’s apartment. Everyone else was busy with their work the next day and couldn’t help out.
“We should have a party again..” Nino muttered. I nodded my head and placed the cans in the recycling bin.
“These past few years have gone by so fast but the future will always be waiting for us.” I said and turned around to see Nino. He was smiling and chuckling as he picked up the garbage. I smiled and went to help him to clean up the mess.
I walked towards his computer desk and accidently bumped into the desk. Then his computer turned on. I panicked and started to move the mouse so he wouldn’t figure out that I might have gone through his privacy.
I gasped as I stared at the screen. He was looking my blog. I stood still. I couldn’t believe that he found my blog.
“What are you doing?” Nino came to me and asked. I shook my head and muttered. “Nothing. I was cleaning the mess on your desk and the screen was on.”
He nodded his head and smiled. “Oh, that blog helps inspire me to write songs. When I read the entries, the person is always positive and always looking upwards. Like, that person doesn’t regret anything in their life.”
Nino walked away and I turned my head to his computer monitor. I smiled and continued to clean up.
"Hikaru-chan, for these past few days I've seen you changed so much." Nino said to me. I turned my head and smiled. "You've changed too." He chuckled and washed his hands in his kitchen.
"I'm glad that we saw each other again." Nino smiled and nodded his head. "Me too."
I giggled and said. "The truth is when we were in the same class in out last year of high school, I was very happy. Even though you weren't there most of the time, I still felt that your presence was always around me. I even had a big crush on you back then."
Then I heard a plate falling on the floor. I quickly ran in the kitchen and saw a plate on the floor, shattered into a million of pieces. "Ah, what a mess..." I bend down and started to pick up the broken pieces.
"What about now?" Nino asked me. I looked up at him and furrowed my eyebrows. "I'm cleaning up the plate you just broke." Nino shook his head and bent down so we were eye to eye to each other.
"Do you still like me?" Nino whispered. I stopped my hand from picking up the last broken piece. I looked up at him and smiled. "I don't know... It has been years since we graduated from high school. My feelings for you just floated away...."
Nino frowned and looked down at his floor. I leaned in and kissed him on the cheek.
"But I think those feelings back then, just came back."
Be glad of life because it gives you the chance to love and to work and to play and to look up at the stars.
~From the television I use as alarm clock,
I heard a voice of someone laughing from an unknown town.
Somewhat it made me laugh too.
I woke up late in a sunny morning.
Ten years ago I saw a dream of me now.
"In ten year? I don't know" what would be me of now.
Somehow I still feel the same.
That afternoon that I was talking with you.
Yes, in time that flows so casually.
The important things are the reasons for each smile.
We are also searching for today.
Riding on the wind that travels through seasons, my dreams began to shine.
A new future continues to spread out from here, I will walk on that way.
The grieves I can't tell to anyone and the cloudy days continues.
If I pick up the brilliance that are scattered, I feel that I could move a little more further.
From his blog that I found by chance.
I heard a voice of someone laughing from an unknown town.
Somehow it made me cry.
That night made me see very clearly.
It is not just one answer on how we should live our life.
The important things are the shape of our happiness.
Everyone is searching for it.
Riding on the wind that travels through seasons, your dreams began to shine.
Someday you will reach it and you will able to run on the vast sky.
In times you feel unsatisfied and crushed.
We will definitely give you a hand, so it will be alright. Believe and move forward.
Don't wait for a miracle, go to where the sun shines.
There's a ray of light in the darkness.
A light shines to guide us.
We are taking a painful future.
The orange sky, it's sunset again.
Do we live for the sake of living?
Someday I will look back at the chances that matured.
Right now, I won't wait for a miracle and go to where the sun shines, to where the sun shines.
Riding on the wind that travels through seasons, my dreams began to shine.
A new future continues to spread out from here, I will walk on that way.
The grieves I can't tell to anyone and the cloudy days continues.
If I pick up the brilliance that are scattered, I feel that I could move a little more further.
Don't wait for a miracle, go to where the sun shines.~
