CHAPTER 14
+CAMERA+
After they dined together, Makoto & Nozoe headed home.
"Are you tired?´Nozoe asked her gently.
"Nope, just wanna clear my mind off things," Makoto told him. They were sitting at the living room, watching the night news- more appropriate to say listening to the tv since they were not paying attention to it really.
"What are you thinking?" Nozoe put his arms over her shoulder.
"Hmmm, nothing to worry about, I'm just happy that you came," Makoto said looking at him intently.
"Oh, sou ka.. from now on I'll always go whenever you have a performance," Nozoe told her. He noticed that her face was blushing, probably because of the wine she ordered..
"Nani?"
"Hmmm.,.. just wanna admire your face," Nozoe pulled some hair strands away from her face. He wanted to see her clearly- the face of the woman he love. Suddenly, Makoto held his hands, feeling the warmth that comes from it.
"Your hand is so warm," she said. He can feel her hurried yet gentle breathing, which sends heat throughout his body. Nozoe pulled her closer until they're just about an inch away from each other. Without any warning, their lips met. It was a gentle kiss, awakening their desires toward each other. As the kiss deepened, Nozoe's hand moved gently on her back, taking pleasure in every minute that pass. Her hands cling to his neck, feeling and wanting, consumed with so much passion for this man whom she love. She started unbuttoning Nozoe's shirt, playing and teasing like a music she had been playing. She enjoyed Nozoe's hurried breathing, raged with desires for her. She barely unbuttoned the last of Nozoe's shirt when his hand stopped her.
"ohh, man, that was close.. I guess that will be enough for now Milady," Nozoe smiled. It was hard but if he didn't stop now, they might end up in bed. "You are tired after the performance, I think you should rest," he told her. I f something were to happen between them, her heart might not be able to bear the pain, and God knows he didn't wanted to lose her..
"I'm fine.. if you're worried about that, I can handle the pain," Makoto argued. She just wanna make him happy, even if he didn't tell, she knew all about his desires, which he had been restraining for a while now.
"You know that I don't want to lose you Makoto. If its just for my stupid desires, I'd rather not make love with you for the rest of our lives, than to pay the price of losing you," Nozoe countered…his passion have not yet subsided, and if she'll still insist doing it, he might give in.. God, please let her agree,, please….
"Um okay," Makoto said, a little disappointed.
"Gomen Makoto, I just love you, that's why,.."
"yeah, I know…" she gave him a kiss and headed off to take shower and rest after..
Nozoe smiled and whispered: " Arigatou Kami-sama, please let her stay with me longer..onegai.."
"CUUUUT. So far so good, that's it for today. " the director called out. The staffs started tidying, fixing, re-arranging the set for tomorrow's shoot. They will be filming scenes on different locations that they needed equipments which could be easily assemble and dissemble like the ones they had used just now.
+++++++++
Anou~ Nino-san, hontoni arigatou gozaimasu," Angel gave him a slightly polite bow.
"Daijobu, I'm more than willing to teach you, we'd done filming this early because of your efforts" Nino smiled, jumping in surprise.
"But I couldn't have done that without you," she complimented, turning to her watch. "Anyway, need to get going, my kids are waiting."
"Ah okay, I should be going too, its nearly 7pm, or the guys will kill me if I'm late," Nino said amused.
"Guys? Kill you? Eh?" Angel looked confused.
"Oh, I mean the other members, you knew that we're a group of idols called ARASHI right?" Nino confirmed.
" Ah, so desho? But they won't kill you right?" Angel asked still confused.
" Īe. that was an expression just now-mah~mah~ never mind about that, you'll meet them anyway when you get to film with them," Nino assured her.
"Ah okay. Oh~ I heard you're banned from driving, why don't you ride with me? JE building is not that far from my kids' school. I'm sure they'll be happy to see you."
"Ah, Im fine. I don't want to trouble you that much. I'll just ride the van[company van]" Nino said.
"Onegai. You see, my kids been bombarding me questions about you over the table, so I thought its better if you attend to it yourself, please? Also think of it as my way of saying thank you." she told him ,eyes pleading.
"How can I refuse if a pretty lady is begging me like this?" he asked her smilingly, and slip to the passenger's seat which she opened upon realizing that he agreed.
"Yay. My kids would really be happy, thanks Nino-san," she smiled genuinely. Nino was again dazzled, it’s the first time she'd seen her excited like a child...
"Oh, I forgot, best to do disguises if you come out later, or people will surround you." Angel informed him.
"Oh, right,. Thanks."
+++++++++++
"Uwaa~ I knew it! Didn't I told you Shuji? Nino-niichan is here.," Shuri exclaimed, very excited. She was so happy when they noticed that their mom wasn't alone.
"Oi Shuri, don't get too excited. And please tone down, else if you want us to get into trouble esp. Nino-niichan if people hear you.." Shuji warned. They approach the two who were standing near the car.
"Ah, gomen nii-chan, anou~.. " Shuri said demanding a hug from Nino.
Nino hugged Shuri and then bent over to pat her head. "How was school Shuri? Tanoshii monodeshita ka?"
"Hai, tanoshiiga atta," Shuri smiled sweetly
.. ahh, that smile again,, I still haven't resolved where did I see that smile before..Nino thought before turning to Shuji, "How 'bout Shuji?"
"Tanoshii-desu. We managed to befriend some of our classmates, yokata ne~ Mama" Shuji smiled also and turned to look at his mom. It was the first time Nino had seen him smile, and he was sure he'd also seen that smile somewhere.
"Finally become aware of me huh?" Shi pouted. "Before, you used to greet me firsthand, now how come my spotlight was stolen by Nino-san?" she said half-meant, half-joke.
"Kya~ that's because I'm more popular?" Nino said, carrying on her joke.
"Right nii-chan," the two giggled.
"Eh?" Shi pretended to look down.
"Daijobu mama, we still love you.," the two said amusedly. And all of them laugh.
++++++++++++++++
"Kya~ Nino-chan^^" Aiba greeted Nino who'd just come out from Shi's car. "Eh? I see you didn't right the van" Aiba expected answer from Nino, but to his dismay he just nodded. "Hmm, who's the kind-hearted person who gave you a free ri-" but Aiba was not able to finish his statement when he noticed that the car windows opened and a pretty face looked up to them and waved goodbye.
"Anou~ Nino, I should take my leave now.. my kids wanted to-hey choto! " Shi couldn't continue. She was disturbed by the kids who suddenly got out of the car. She had no choice but to come out as well to follow them. When she was able to get near them, the twins had started to introduce themselves.
"Hajimemashite, Aiba-niichan, watashi wa Shuri desu," Shuri smiled.
"Shuji desu" Shuji smiled too.
"Yoroshiku onegaishimasu^^" they said together.
Aiba was surprised to see two cute little kids, that he couldn't contain his excitement.
"Uwaa~ kawaii! Kawaii!!" then turned to Nino "Who are they Nino?" but it was Shi who answered.
"They are my kids. Anou~ sumimasen for my kids action just now," Shi bowed.
"Ah, daijobu, daijobu, they are cute little kids so they didn't bother me at all. Ah, Masaki-desu, yoroshiku" Aiba said offering his hands.
"Angel-desu. Im really sorry just now. You see, my kids admire your group." Shi said.
"Ah, so desho? How about Angel-san? Are you a fan?" Aiba asked.
"Ah, gomen, this is the first time I have seen you.. to be honest I'm not really that familiar when it comes to idols" she said regretfully. But to her surprise Aiba hit his head.
"Kya~ that was so impolite of me, asking you all of a sudden when we just met." Aiba smiled. Shi can't help but smile back. Aiba's aura seemed different. It was able to create a positive environment towards her. He turned towards the kids who are chatting with Nino.
"How come it was Nino whom you first met?" He asked Nino.
"That was because we happen to bump into nii-chan last week at the playground, and just recently our mom get to act with him," the twins answered smilingly. Although Nino thought if its Aiba, they sure needed to explain clearly.
"Ah sou`ka.. Are? Is she the one whom you have been acting with and who will also be acting with the rest of us?" Aiba asked Nino puzzled.
"Eh? that's what the twins just said right now, I thought you understood," Nino chuckled.
"Hontou desu ka? Kya~ now I am surprised," Aiba said thrilled.
"Anou~ Nino, didn't you say that you guys have an appointment at 7pm?" Shi interrupted their conversation.
"Ah, right. We should be going then, or Jun-chan will kill us.ah. that was jun! Jun-chan" Aiba called.
"Speaking of the devil," Nino said looking at the guy who had stopped walking towards the entrance when he heard Aiba. Shi couldn't hide her disgust when she'd seen him. Nino who was aware about the cold war between the two, beckoned Shi to her car when he saw her reaction.
"Mah` better be going too Angel, or the twins might get starved again" Nino said, hands still pushing her. Shi was smart enough to understand Nino's gesture. When they were at the car's door, she looked at Nino, "Arigatou Nino-san," smiled, and rode her car. The twins at the backseat asked her, "How come we can't meet Jun-niichan?". Shi gave her kids a don’t-ask-me look, started the engine, and sighed. It was the best way she can answer.
++++++++++++
"Eh?? you mean Angel was the pretty ojousan who bumped into Jun-chan last week? And she's the one who got kids? And she's the one who will be acting with us? Eh? Nino-chan, isn't it bad if Jun found out?" Aiba asked panic-stricken.
"Oi, don't shout or the members might hear you" Nino hushed him. It’s a bad idea telling this man. But atleast now, he's not the only one burdened with the fact. "We might as well tell Ridaa, he'll be able to help us" Nino said.
"Nani?" Sho who happen to heard them, asked. He just returned from Beijing and was now together with them. "What are you guys talking about?"
"ah` ah, we're tal-king a-a-about the weather, right Nino-chan?" Aiba said and nudged Nino.
"Ah, hai, hontou desu," Nino answered, it was a bad excuse and he knew that Sho wouldn't buy it, but to their delight, Sho drop the topic, "Ah, so desu ka?"
"Hai, so desu" the two chorused.. maybe still too tired from travel..they thought.
"Mina, manager-san is calling us.. I know we're all tired from our different works, but lets do our best on this okay?" Ohno asked them.
"Hai Ridaa," the four of them answered.
