“Ryutaro-kun, I’m scared.” Fukuda told him.
“Don’t worry, I’m here.” He assured her, smiling.
“But what if we fall from the tree?”
He frowned a bit, then grinned. “I guess that would be good, if we fall in love at this tree.”
She rolled her eyes and whacked him affectionately on the arms.
“Okay, just hold my hands and we’ll climb together.”
“And if we fall?”
“Then we’ll fall together.” He smiled.
She reached for his hand and together, they climbed the cherry tree whose flowers were just beginning to blossom. The faint pink flowers surrounded them as they agilely moved from one branch to another, their hands linked together. A few more minutes passed, they were seated on a large branch where the whole tree can be seen, including the park around them.
“It’s beautiful in her Ryu…” she muttered.
“I told you it’s pretty up here.” He said looking at her.
She smiled back at him, her beady brown eyes glinting with a new kind of light as they enjoyed their own little world of love.

He sat at the far corner of the room, his eyes bloodshot and soaked with tears. The collar of his shirt had been drenched wet with all the tears he had shed after he heard of the news of Shoon’s decision to quit JE.
“Why… You idiot, why…” he asked himself, though he was not sure if he was asking why he was crying over it or why Shoon had to leave.
Slowly, the door opened and in came Shoon. He had that sad look on his face as he found Hikaru crying. He knelt down next to him and ruffled his hair.
“What’s wrong Hika-chan?” his voice quavered.
“Why?” he looked up, his eyes meeting Shoon’s.
“I’m sorry. I’ve been selfish. I’m doing this for myself.”
“But why would you leave us? Why would you leave me?” his voice grew fainter.
“I’m not leaving you. I’m just leaving Johnny. He’s being an ass to me and I don’t like that.” He tried to sound upbeat but failed. “Stop crying now or else I’ll go to Yabu.”
“NO!” he suddenly tackled Shoon with a hug that sent them to the ground.
“Hey, get off me.” He giggled.
“I’ll miss this.” Hikaru whimpered.
“Yeah, me too…” Shoon murmured as he traced his fingers through Hikaru’s locks.

Genre/Rating: Fluff/G
It took him a couple of days to complete his present for her. He could remember the sleepless nights that he spent attaching the twigs and the flowers together, the burns he got with accidentally touching the glue stick, and the rebuking he got from his mother for staying up late. He was really excited to show it to her.
He placed it inside a paper bag and tied it with a white ribbon. He rode the bus to Shida’s place and got off at a corner near their house. A couple of minutes more, he was standing in front of their gate. He pressed the doorbell and out came Mirai’s dog, followed by the most beautiful girl in Ryosuke’s eyes. They exchanged greetings and she let him in the house.
They seated at the living room where he sheepishly gave her this present. She looked at it for a while before finally deciding to open it. Just as she took the wreath out of the bag, her dog suddenly jumped in between them and nabbed it in between his fangs.
The couple shouted in unison as the dog ran off with Yamada’s hard work. As soon as he realized that it would be a lost cause running after the dog, he just stared at Mirai who all of a sudden gave him a kiss on the cheeks. He just turned red as he returned the favor, this time kissing her in the lips.

The swivel door to the emergency room suddenly flung open and in came a flustered Yuri. He looked around and his eyes fell on the all too familiar face of Umika who was lounging on the hospital bed.
“Umi-chan!” he rushed to her and suddenly brushed her hair with his fingers, ignoring the person in white who was holding an x-ray film.
“Chii -” she muttered.
“What happened?” he asked.
“I tripped.” She admitted shyly.
“You tripped and ended up in the hospital?” his eyes were full of question.
“You look like you’ve been worried sick.” She teased.
“Yeah right.” He rolled his eyes. “So, how’s your ankle?”
She sighed and mouthed to the person who held the x-ray film up. Yuri turned to him.
“Sir, the doctor said her ankle seemed to be fine now. She just had a minor sprain and could be discharged by the end of the day.”
“Thanks, Fritz.” Yuri said, squinting to look at the nameplate while patting the male nurse at the back.

Genre/Rating: Fluff/PG lol
Daiki looked at him from afar as the younger boy reached for his towel. He covered his face with his PSP as his eyes feasted on the young boy’s wet body. He didn’t want anyone to see him staring at the boy nor did he want him to discover his inward craving for his body.
He was deep in his illusion when an abrupt tap on his shoulders made him jump up in fright.
“Dai-chan, what are you doing?”
He looked at the person standing behind him and whacked him in the head. “What the eff are you doing Inoo-chan?!”
“Huh? Why are you so hyped up?”
“Hyped? Who? Me?”
Inoo raised a questioning eyebrow and grinned as he saw Keito on the other side of the room, taking off his shirt to wipe the sweat off his body. “Oh, so that’s why.”
Daiki’s face turned white as he tried to cover his mouth with his PSP.
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell on you. But, don’t be too secured. I’m not one to lose a fight.” Inoo smirked.
“WHY YOU!”

It had been quite a rough day for Yabu. He had to go through a whole day of rehearsals with JUMP and had to attend to the run through of their upcoming series of concerts, without Hikaru helping him since the latter had not been feeling well after the dance rehearsals.
After the meeting with the other staff members for their spring concert, he went to JUMP’s dressing room, dragging his feet along with him as he felt every inch of his body ached.
He twisted the knob, opened the door, and found a jungle rather than a decent dressing room. He forced himself to move his mouth to reprimand everyone but didn’t find the strength to do so. Rather, he just moved along quietly to one side of the room and slumped himself on the couch. He covered his face with a blanket, closed his eyes, and the last thing he heard was an abrupt silence.
“Was that Yabu-kun?” Chinen asked.
“I guess so.” Takaki said.
“I don’t think so.” Yamada inserted. “He didn’t get mad at us being so noisy and all.”
“Yeah, maybe the aliens replaced him with a non-control freak prototype.” Inoo mused.
With that in mind, the jungle was back in action.
