Chapter 1
The crowd went absolutely maniacal, and it was only the first song. Rin was happy that she and Len already outdone themselves from last week's performance. Len, on the other hand, knew that this meant that they had to cancel the show earlier than expected, conserving their best songs and performances for future shows. Why spoil their audience when they clearly were contempt with what they just saw?
Suddenly, the lights dimmed and a spotlight shined over Rin as she casually stepped towards the front of the stage. Music started playing, a piano, when suddenly it burst into a techno-like rhythm. The fans watched in awe as Rin pulled out her microphone and started singing a beautiful melody.
~The town is filled with brilliant light
The chill of anesthetic ether
2 AM and I can't sleep
Everything is changing so fast
Len stood in the dark, watching his partner with a wistful look on her face sing,sounding more heartbroken with every word.
~I want to dive into
A nuclear reactor
Surrounded by beautiful blue light
If I dive into
The nuclear reactor
Then I can let it all go~
After a couple of more lines, the song was over, and the lights came back on. The crowd stared at Rin,unsure how to react, until she flashed a big smile across her face. Instantly, everyone started cheering, as Len went beside her, and both simultaneously struck a pose, ending the show as they always do.
A bouquet of roses flew into the air and on the stage,landing right next to Rin's feet. Len neared his eyes down, staring at the color,which was bright yellow. He turned his head towards Rin,who was still taking in the crowd's admiration to notice.
No one had ever thrown anything on stage for either of them.
-Later that night...
"Ah, that was awesome!" Rin exclaimed, as her partner looked outside the window of their limo. "Did you see that one fat guy in the third row dressed like you? He even got the hair right!" she laughed. Len still stared out the window, watching the passing streetlights. "It's like he glued bananas together and stuck them on his head!" she said,barely controlling her laughter anymore. Len snuck a peek at her, but nothing seemed to be wrong. So why would she sing that? It was the most depressing song he had ever heard, and she didn't even tell him that she had planned it for tonight.
"IS SOMETHING WRONG,CAPTAIN BANANA HEAD?" she said while poking Len's head." N-nothing,it's nothing." he replied,still staring out the window. "Hmm...is it because of "meltdown"?". Len turned to her. "What the heck is "meltdown"?" he asked. Rin smiled. "It's the name of the song I sang tonight, silly. Are you mad that I upstaged you?" she said with a sly smirk. "W-what?You didn't upstage me!" he huffed back at her.
"Oh please. I upstaged you so hard, that the fat guy in the third row wished he came in a Rin cosplay" Rin replied,haughtily staring at Len's red face, flushed with anger. "Shut up" he resppnded ,crossing his arms. At least there was nothing wrong with her. Just the usual Rin.
-Later...
"I think next time you should do your own solo. Maybe that "Dream-smashing monobrow Baka" song?"
"It's 'Dream-eating monochrome Baku',you Baka. and I sang that last month,remember?" Len replied, getting into bed with Rin. Since childhood,they had slept in the same bed together, and continued even after they had got famous. Rin rolled over,toward him. "Whatever" she responded, drifting to sleep. She had always fallen asleep before him. He watched her peaceful smile even in her sleep,before falling asleep himself.
One week later
"FAN MAIL TIME!" Rin had exclaimed.
"Pipe down,I'm coming!" Len replied,walking into the kitchen. Every month,she and Len recieve mail from fans,pending from inspired teenagers to 40 year old men (who were oddly after Len), and this time, she was sure that she would get the most mail due to "Meltdown".
"Check it out! Austin, aged 43 from Michigan wants you to 'try his banana'!"
"What!Ew! Well Miley, aged 17 from Kansas wants you to 'gain more weight,you anorexic freak'!"
"Haha!We'll just see about that!" Rin laughed,pulling out another letter from the pile. "Hm?"
"What is it" Len asked.
"This one has a heart on it". Rin held up the letter, which clearly sported a heart sticker on it. "HAH!It's probably some creep!" Len laughed.
Rin opened the letter.
My darling Rin,
Please don't be alarmed by my sudden confession, but I believe that now is the time where our fate begins. Kagamine Rin,I have loved you since the day I have heard your lovely voice scream to the heavens when you performed in England. Do you remember that Rin? Do you remember singing that fiery song 'Tokyo Teddy Bear' with such passion and energy that it rocked my soul over and over? Of course you do,because I know you felt the beat of my heart yearning for you.
Ever since that day, I have always knew that you and I were meant to be together. I saved all I could and traveled to Japan just to see your lovely face and sweep you away to consummate our love.
You may find this very silly, but I couldn't muster up the courage to tell you that one special night you performed. When you sang that beautiful song... it was about us,wasn't it? How you would rather kill yourself then to be away from me any longer? I didn't know you felt that way, my sweet cherry. I was so distraught that I threw that gorgeous bouquet of golden roses onto the stage next to your feet and fled. I could not believe that my sunshiney Rin could ever love me that much.
Now that I know that you would give away your precious life to be with me, I think that it is time for us to finally meet,for we are in love in spirit, but not in person. You have called for my soul, my sweet, and it has responded.
By the time this letter has gotten to you,I will be preparing reservations at the Sweet Kuri-mu cafe for tomorrow at twelve o'clock. I will wait for you, my love
Lastly,if you would like,I wouldn't mind if you brought your brother,Len. I understand how close you are to him,and I would like for him to know that his sister is in good hands.
Until tomorrow, my love .
Rin and Len both paused after reading the letter. Until Rin started to snicker, which turned into a full on laugh.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? HAHAHAHAHAHA!"she laughed, rolling on the floor. Len,still baffled by it, stared at the letter's content. He looked down to Rin. "What? Somebody out there thinks you're in love with them?". He scanned the letter. "We haven't performed in England for two years!".At that statement,Rin started laughing even more outrageously."WHO THE FUCK WOULD WRITE THAT?THAT'S SO LAME!"she laughed. "HE DOESN'T KNOW ME AT ALL! HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW THAT WE'RE NOT RELATED HAHAHAHAHA!".
Len and Rin Kagamine had been best friends since childhood,and when they became singing icons,the last name 'Kagamine' had become sort of a stage name. Fans in Japan had known this, but in other countries they had not performed as much, so it was obvious that this person is confused. Especially since Rin and Len look and dress alike.
Rin's laughter started to die a bit,as Len read the letter again. "Hey,what time is he going to show up at Sweet Kuri-mu?" she asked,surprising Len. "You're actually gonna go!?"he asked back. Rin stood up. "Hell yeah. What if he's cute?". Len looked at her in disbelief. How could she possibly be considering going on a date with some stranger? Rin looked back at him."Besides,you're coming too" she said with a smirk.
"M-me? Why do I have to go!?"
"Because I need someone to protect me if he tries to molest me or something. And he said he didn't mind if you came anyway. To know his sister is in good hands."
"You're not my sister,and I think you should forget about the whole thing. He's obviously some king of creep. You should stay away from him".
"But what if he's cuuuute?" She asked,with a puppy dog face. "And he did get me flowers apparently...". Len had remembered the roses falling on the stage. Obviously Rin didn't see them,though. He signed "Fine. If you want, we'll go to Sweet Kuri-mu tomorrow. But if he's creepy,we're leaving." He said,crossing his arms.
"Yay!"Rin exclaimed. Len felt weird seeing her so happy. To go on a date with this random stranger. It's not like he had been there for Rin her whole life or anything. Supported her in all of her decisions. Or has been there for her when she was down.
"Why am I feeling like this" he thought,staring at Rin excitedly open more letters. "It's not like I like her or anything".
"Hey Len, Vincent from Boston,aged 47 wants you to give him a private lap dance to 'Spice'!"
Len's face flushed. He definitely did not like her.
This is my first fan fiction,so tell me what you think :)
