But on a happier note, I finished the fanfic that I was making for a gift-fic exchange (one less worry off my mind, at least)

Chap-9 "Tadaima!"
Jun called out as he took off his shoes and walked into the living room, the other Arashi members following behind him. "Ahh...I'm exhausted." He groaned as he flopped onto the armchair, closing his eyes.
Sho and Aiba dropped onto the couch while Nino with a sleeping Ohno in his arms sat on the floor, leaning against the couch.
"This had to be the most tiring VS Arashi filming that we did in a while, if not ever." Sho agreed, letting out a yawn as he wrapped his arm around Aiba.
"But it was definitely the most fun!" Aiba pointed out, reaching for the remote to turn on the television.
"I bet we'll have high ratings for this episode." Nino added, taking a bottle of milk from the baby bag and feeding it to a waking Ohno.
Sho snorted. "How realistic of you." Nino merely grinned impishly at him back.
Jun stretched out on the chair, looking at them. "You're just glad that you didn't have to fall in MDA today." He retorted. Jun then grinned at something he remembered, "Although MDJ was a nice alternative." All the members grinned at what happened after their win.
As soon as they were announced the winners and all the streamers and confetti had showered down upon them, the staff really did bring out a special edition of MDA for that episode only.
But instead of MDA (Most Dame Arashi) they replaced it with MDJ (Most Dame JUMP).
Although the JUMP members protested at this, the Arashi members forced them to do it. There were five boxes and each box had two members on top...except one.
"Isn't it weird that I'm the only one alone?" Inoo complained, not liking the direction this was headed.
"It can't be helped since there's only nine of you." Nino explained to him as the Arashi team was watching them from below.
As each JUMP member gave their individual reasons for why they shouldn't be the ones to fall, they didn't notice that the staff was preparing something on the ground floor. The Arashi members noticed and automatically knew what was going on. They had to shush Ohno in keeping it a surprise.
When they did their votes, no one was surprised when they all pointed at Inoo, including the person himself. "Even I knew that it would be me." Inoo sighed in defeat, closing his eyes as he got ready to fall.
Then the most unexpected but hilarious thing happened.
All the boxes opened up and everyone, not just Inoo, fell down. There were screams in the air (from the members and the audience) as all the JUMP members coughed, each one of them covered in yellow glitter dust.
The Arashi team and everyone in the studio were laughing hysterically as Hey!Say!JUMP cursed, trying to stand up from all the dust covered foam sponges. The Arashi members insisted that since they all lost as one, then they should all fall as one as well. Nino even added that they at least looked a little brighter now.
"Hey!Say!JUMP!" Jun called to them. After he got their attention, Jun smiled sincerely at them. "Feel free to come on any of our shows again- you're definitely welcome." The other Arashi members also nodded at that, smiling warmly.
And just like that, Hey!Say!JUMP left the studio covered in sparkling yellow dust, but with huge smiles on each of their faces.
Nino sighed as he leaned back against the couch. "Best outcome ever."
Sho nodded. "I think out of all the Johnny groups that came on our show- TOKIO, V6, Kanjani8, Johnny's WEST- I'm positive that Hey!Say!JUMP would be the most memorable." The others voiced their agreement.
"But I'm sure that it's also due to Satoshi being there, ne little man?" Aiba cooed, leaning forward to poke at one of Ohno's chubby cheeks. Ohno giggled, the bottle nipple still in his mouth.
"Of course Satoshi made the show more fun." Nino agreed, hugging Ohno to him. "He is our good luck charm!"
"He really is. At first we were losing badly as we were behind by 400+ points. But suddenly we did well in the second half and we won even though we could have easily lost." Jun pointed out.
"Also, we got our first strike! That was a historical moment for the show!" Aiba cheered, holding his hands up high in victory.
Sho grinned at them as he let out a sigh. "But I admit that I was surprised that Director-san let Satoshi be on the show."
"I'm not." Nino shook his head. "I wouldn't be surprised if Johnny somehow guessed what might happen and arranged for Satoshi to somehow end up on the show."
Sho twisted his face in confusion. "But why would he do something like-" he suddenly paused as his eyes went wide. "For more publicity. It would show the fans our fatherly sides, which would not only look good for us, but would reflect greatly for the agency."
Nino smirked, as he held Ohno up to burp him. "Exactly."
"He's using Satoshi!" Aiba cried, flabbergasted.
"That's Johnny." Nino countered back, gently patting Ohno's back.
"He uses people all the time." Jun pointed out to them. "As long as Satoshi is safe with us, we still have our jobs and somehow get out of all of this scandal-free, then we can just deal with his methods. No matter the intentions behind them."
Sho wasn't happy neither, but nodded. "At least this means it would probably be okay to bring Satoshi with us to our filmings in the future."
After hearing the tiny burp, Nino cradled Ohno in his arms and looked up at the time. "Well, I think it's time for someone to have their bath and go to sleep." Nino said, putting the dirty burp towel in the laundry basket.
"Ugh, we'll need to change his diaper also." Jun pointed out, cringing at the smell coming from Ohno's diaper.
"Not me." Aiba automatically sung out. "And not Sho-chan either! We both changed Satoshi like three times yesterday when we went shopping and stuff."
Nino smirked as he turned to the wide-eyed Jun, handing him Ohno. "And since we all know that I also changed his diaper...here you go!" Jun paled at the baby that was suddenly in his hands.
"Hey, wait a-"
"Nino-chan! Since we didn't have dinner yet, I have the ingredients for that hotpot you wanted before. Will you come help me make it?" Aiba suddenly cut in.
Nino grinned as he grabbed Aiba's arm and practically skipped out the door. "Sure, I love hotpot!"
Jun turned to Sho, his eyes filled with silent pleading. Sho smiled helplessly at him as he stealthily backed out of the room, "I'll get the bath things ready."
Jun gritted his teeth at being deserted by the other members. Looking down at a wide-eyed Ohno, who was staring at him innocently, he sighed. "I really hate them sometimes." He muttered, holding up Ohno and headed to the bathroom.
After he cleaned Ohno's bottom and disposed of the soiled diaper (Jun was of course cursing the other members the entire time- not caring if Ohno could hear him or not) Sho entered the bathroom carrying all the things that Ohno would need for his bath.
"What is all that stuff?" Jun questioned as he held up a half-naked Ohno, moving away so Sho could put all the stuff down on the sink counter.
Sho held up the two big bags he had. "This yellow bag has all the baby toiletries that we'll need. The green bag has the bath toys that Satoshi likes playing with. And here's Satoshi's pajamas." Sho laid the clothes and diaper next to the yellow bag.
Jun scooped up the clothes to examine them. It was a bright yellow footsie pajama. The footsies were orange webbed feet and when Jun looked at the clothing as a whole, he realized that it looked like a duck. "Tell your boyfriend that we are raising a baby- not a pet." Jun spat out, throwing the clothes on the counter in disgust.
Sho flushed. "Actually, I'm the one who chose the clothes this time."
Jun aimed a look of horror at him. "He's rubbing off on you. Ugh...." Jun rolled his eyes as he looked at the big piece of equipment that was in Sho's hands. "And what's that?"
"Well, since Masaki was the only one of us who gave Satoshi his baths, I had to ask him what we would need." Sho told him, placing the mini bathtub into the big tub. "He said that since Satoshi was still little, we should put him in this thing because if we just placed him in the big bathtub, Satoshi had a bigger chance of drowning."
Jun looked at him confused. "But we would be holding him." Jun wasn't stupid enough to put a one-year old alone in a bathtub.
"Masaki said that babies are very slippery, especially when they're covered in soap and water. Satoshi might slip and hit his head or something. At least if we put Satoshi in this, there's a padding here that will stick lightly to the baby's skin and prevent them from slipping all over the place." Sho showed him. Jun nodded, touching the aqua green padding that was indeed covering the mini bathtub. "And we can adjust it- making it into a tub or a seat if Satoshi wanted to sit up. Masaki says Satoshi likes to sit up and play with his toys." Sho demonstrated, showing Jun how to function the tub.
Jun grinned as Sho turned on the water. "Babies have the coolest equipment."
Making sure that the water was warm, Jun took off Ohno's shirt and placed the naked baby into the mini bath tub. They adjusted the setting so Ohno could lay in the tub, making it easier for Jun and Sho to wash his head and body.
"We're gonna make you squeaky clean. Do you like that Satoshi?" Jun hummed, lathering the baby up with a cloth of baby body soap.
"Swueaky cwean!" Ohno chirped, giggling when Jun scrubbed at the soles of his feet.
Sho laughed when he got a glimpse of Ohno. "He looks like a fluffy cloud." Jun sat back and couldn't help but chuckle at how the baby really did seem to look like a mini cloud. Ohno was pretty much surrounded by bubbles- the only body part visible was his face.
"Booballs! Booballs!" Ohno sang, wiggling his body to play with the soap suds.
"Yes, the bubbles can fly see?" Jun held his hands together and made a tunnel with him. Blowing in the tunnel, Ohno gasped in delight as many little bubbles came out.
"Booballs! Bye bye!" Ohno waved to the departing bubbles. As they made sure that Ohno was throughly lathered up, Jun carefully held Ohno as Sho adjusted the tub into sitting position to rinse the baby off.
"Okay, Satoshi, close your eyes okay?" Jun warned as he brought up the scoop full of water.
"Kay!" Ohno closed his eyes as Jun quickly dunked water over his head, making sure all the soap was off the baby's head. As Jun rinsed off the rest of his body, Sho opened the green bag and came back to the tub with an armful of bath toys.
"Mama says that you like to play in the tub Satoshi. Is that true?" Sho asked in a teasing voice, knowing that the baby wanted to play with the toys as soon as his eyes started to sparkle and lifted his arms up at him.
"Yes! Pway! Pway!" Ohno yelled, reaching for his toys. Sho chuckled as he laid the toys in front of Satoshi.
Jun and Sho was smiling at the joyful baby before jumping as they suddenly heard a voice. "His favorite toy is the boat." Both guys looked at the door, surprised to see Aiba with a camera in hand.
Aiba let out a breathy giggle as he shot another picture of Sho, Jun and Ohno. "Sorry, I came to check on how you guys were doing and you all looked so cute...I couldn't resist." He shrugged sheepishly.
"It's fine. How's the hotpot going?" Sho asked as Jun handed the cheerful baby with the toy boat.
"It's going great. Nino and me also took out the kotatsu to make it on." As Aiba left the bathroom, Sho looked back to the tub and laughed heartily at how soaked Jun had gotten. "What happened?"
Jun let out a crooked grin as he shrugged. "Apparently Satoshi likes the toys that squirt water."
As they played 'Underwater sea adventure' with Ohno, the door opened once more and this time Nino peeked into the room. "Nobody drowned yet?"
"Kazu!" Ohno shouted gleefully, splashing water everywhere due to his excitement.
Nino chuckled, waving hello to the baby. "What are you guys playing?" Looking at Jun and Sho, Nino couldn't help but snort at their appearance. "I thought Satoshi was the one taking a bath here, not you two."
Jun couldn't keep the grin off his face as he held up a rubber duck. "It couldn't be helped- Satoshi wanted us to join him as well I guess."
Ohno splashed more water around the tub as he asked Nino, "Kazu come pway?" Ohno held up the mermaid for him.
Nino let out another chuckle as he shook his head. "Sorry, but I just came here to tell you that the hotpot is almost ready. And Aiba-shi says that Satoshi should get out of the tub soon- he might catch a cold if he stays in there for too long."
Jun nodded as Sho rinsed off Ohno one more time. "Okay, thanks. We'll be out in ten minutes." When Nino left the room, Jun took Ohno out of the tub (promising the pouting baby that he can continue his 'underwater sea adventure' tomorrow) while Sho washed the toys and tub and drained the water.
Jun throughly dried Ohno and wrapped the baby blue bath towel around him as he headed out of the bath, carrying the yellow bag and pajamas along, and headed to the nearest room (which was Aiba's room) and proceeded to lotion, powder and dress the baby.
When Ohno was ready, they left the room and met up with Sho, who was already changed in dry clothes. "You better change too before you catch a cold." Sho told him as he grabbed Ohno so Jun could go and change.
As they all sat around the kotatsu, placing meat and vegetables into their serving bowls, Sho spoke, "So what's the plan for tommorrow?"
Nibbling on a piece of pork belly, Aiba mumbled, "Plan for what?"
"I think you guys forgot, but we all have different schedules tomorrow. Who's going to take care of Satoshi?" Sho reminded them, watching as the other three members froze.
"That's right. We all have different schedules tomorrow. One of us will have to take Satoshi." Jun said, his voice filled with panic.
Nino quickly shook his head. "I can't do it. I'm filming a segment for 'Ninomiya Kazunari's Little Ambition'. I'll be out all day."
Jun shook his head as he pointed out. "Well then, I can't neither. I'm also filming 'This is MJ' for Shiyagare tomorrow."
"I've got a meeting for Aiba Manabu." Aiba added, putting a little bit of tofu into Ohno's mouth.
"And I'm meeting my parent's for my father's birthday tomorrow." Sho said, looking at them in worry.
"Ooh- tell Sakurai-papa that I wish him a Happy Birthday and sorry again that I couldn't make it." Aiba reminded his boyfriend. Sho nodded and assured Aiba that his father understood and would be delighted about the gift they got him.
"Well, one of us has to bring Satoshi with him- we can't leave him by himself." Jun told them, putting his chopsticks down as he looked at them, his face serious. "And we already have Johnny's approval so we can take him to filmings."
"But I don't think I can take care of him alone." Nino complained, really feeling terrified at the chance that he might have to care for the baby alone, without the support of his members.
"I don't think any one of us feels confident to take care of Satoshi." Sho pointed out, silently praying that it wasn't him who had to watch Ohno.
Jun crossed his arms and huffed. "Well, it has to be one of us."
"Let's janken for it. At least that way it'll be fair." Aiba suggested, cradling the yawning baby in his arms.
"Good idea." Sho agreed as they all huddled up and held their fists out.
"No matter what the result is, there is no arguments or repeats or attempts to changing it. If it's you, then it's you." Nino warned them, laying down the rules. They all nodded, everyone clenching their fists in determination.
"Saisho wa guu, janken PON!"
