I feel bad that I haven't updated a in a long time and when I am finally updating, its a new story. Sorry about that and I'll try to update the other story as quickly as I can. Anyway enjoy!~ AmuletLynx.
Chapter 1- A Regular Day… Not:
4 boys sat in the front row of the auditorium anticipating for the show to begin. Everyone around them stared at the them surprised and confused as to why they would be here. All the girls were wishing that they would look their way or least they would glance at them. All the boys wished that they would just disappear, while secretly they wished that they were them.
'Why are they here?'
'Didn't you know Tsukiyomi-sama, Mashiro-sama and Yuiki-sama are in the play'
'KYA! Tsukiyomi-sama is so hot!' 'Souma-sama! Look this way!'
'Fuji saki-sama is so gentle'
'Sanjou-sama, can you tutor me!'
The boys ignored all the comments and focused on their own personal things.
The boys sitting on the outer of the four was Tsukiyomi Ikuto. He has playful sapphire blue eyes with a hint of mystery and midnight velvet blue hair which perfectly swayed in the wind. He had an aura that said not to get too close to him. He was sitting with his hand on the arm rest beneath his head and his phone in the other, as he imagined what must be going on backstage.
The boy sitting next to him was Souma Kukai. He had energetic emerald eyes that shined every time and messy rusty red brown hair that couldn't be tamed. He was currently debating about whether soccer or basketball was better to the person on his left. Of course he believed that it was soccer, but the other person believed that it was basketball.
The basketball lover was none other then Fujisaki Nagihiko. He had long silky, straight purple hair that flowed to his knees -which every girl envied- and warm light chocolate eyes that would envelop you in an instant. He was currently debating calmly with the person on his right, who was very excited.
The last person sitting on the other outer of the four was Sanjo Kairi, he had dark green hair that was parted to the side and ice blue green eyes that is hidden behind a pair of glasses. As the auditorium was noisy with all the chatter of the students, he was currently, calmly reading a novel. As everyone began getting into their seats, a scream was heard from backstage. Ikuto who knew this familiar scream, chuckled as he only imagined what was going behind those curtains.
A scream resounded throughout backstage as a girl with long pink hair securely tied in a ponytail resisted against two girls with long blond hair. "Please Amu?" One of the girls with platinum blonde hair tied in two ponytails pleaded and Amu shook her head furiously.
-X- BestFriend or GirlFriend -X-
"No way am I singing!" Amu yelled. "Now let me go Utau! Yaya!"
"Please Amu?" They both asked. "Fill in for Lulu?"
"She's got a sore throat, so she can't sing now." Utau said. "Do you really want the show to be a failure?"
"No I don't, all of you worked so hard for it." Amu said and Utau smiled.
"Then fill in?" Utau asked sweetly and Amu stared at her.
"No." She said and Utau glared. She had such an evil glare that made Amu cower at the sight of her.
"Oh you really don't want to sing?" Utau asked with a menacing tone and Amu shook her head slowly.
"Then get ready to taste a whole world of evil." Utau said and whispered some words into Amu's ears, to which she paled and became blank. Utau smirked and stared down at Amu, with a knowing glint in her eyes.
"I'll ask you one more time, you want to fill in?" Utau asked and Amu nodded slowly.
"Perfect, Rima, Yaya, you can let her go now." Utau said and the two of them let the poor shriveled up pink haired go and she fell to the ground. After a while, she regained conscious and started to laugh.
"Huh? Why are you laughing?" Utau asked and Amu smirked at her now.
"How do you expect me to know all of the lyrics?" Amu asked and Utau just inspected her nails.
"What are you talking about, you've been coming to our practices all the time." Utau said and Amu once again paled.
"That's right, Amu-chii!" Yaya said as she helped her get up. "You're the one who helped Yaya and Rima practice with the singing and dancing also."
"Yeah, you're the one who knows it the best out of all of us." Rima said and Amu once again fell to the ground.
"Why did I decide to help you guys practice?" Amu muttered over and over again.
"10 minutes to curtain!"
"10 minutes!" Utau said and dragged the lifeless Amu to the dressing room. "Come one Amu, we have to get you ready."
-X- BestFriend or GirlFriend -X-
The lights dimmed in the auditorium and everyone quieted down as they quickly got into their seats. Behind the curtains, stood the girls. Amu was very nervous and Rima noticing that, grabbed her hand and gave it a little squeeze.
"Don't worry you'll do great." Rima said and Amu smiled at her nervously.
"I hope." Amu said and looked forward as the curtains opened and everyone began to clap.
When the curtains separated, Amu scanned the auditorium and saw the boys. She took a deep breath and waited until it was her turn. Finally it was time for her to go out on stage, she closed her eyes tightly and then opened them, with determination and walked out onto stage. The minute she walked out, all of the boy's eyes and mouth's widened, until they were looking like a gaping fish. Amu giggled internally and began to sing.
"You go Hinamori!" She heard Kukai yell out and was almost going to burst into laughter, until she saw Utau's face and continued to sing. After the play had ended, everyone clapped energetically and the girls bowed, with a sense of accomplishment.
"Yes! The play was a success!" Utau said and sighed. "Thanks Amu. if you weren't there, it would have been a disaster."
"Nah, you guys would have managed it." Amu said. All of a sudden, an arm caught Amu in a head lock and was messing up her hair.
"That was amazing Hinamaori!" Kukai said. "Didn't know that you could sing!"
"Stop it Kukai, you're messing up my hair!" She yelled out and pushed Kukai away, smoothing out her hair.
"He's right, I didn't know that you are able to sing and dance like that." Nagihiko said.
"Hmm it wasn't that bad." Ikuto said and Amu smacked him.
"I am not going to do that again!" Amu said, crossing her arms, but then she smiled. "It was pretty fun though." Yaya beamed and grabbed all of the girls, dragging them back up to the stage.
"Then how about we do another right now." Yaya said and they all were confused.
"Huh?" They all asked.
"You know let's all dance or sing to a song." Yaya said. "For fun!"
"Sure what song?" Rima asked.
"How about a song that we all know?" Utau asked and Amu looked at her confused.
"What song it that?" Amu asked.
"'Sugar Free' by T-Ara" Utau said shaking her head. (Do not own "Sugar Free" by T-Ara)
"Oh, sure." Amu said as she got into position. The music started and they began to sing and dance. Occasionally they were goofing off a little bit, but they still did the moves perfectly and sang perfectly. When they are finished, the boys clapped for them and an unknown lady walked up the stairs to the stage.
"Nee-san!" Kairi said and they stared at the lady, confused.
"She's your sister?" Nagihiko asked and he nodded.
"Why is she here though?" Kairi asked. "She should be at her job at this time."
"Hello girls, I am from a singing agency." she said and everyone nodded. "And I would like to recruit the 4 of you to form an idol group." The 4 girls started at her with widened eyes and jaws dropped.
"Seriously!" Utau asked and the lady nodded. "My name is Sanjo Yukari, part of Sanjo Productions, a sub-company of Easter Corporation."
"Oh I've heard about those companies." Rima said. "They are the companies with the most famous groups in Japan."
"Yes, so are you guys interested?" Yukari asked and the three of them nodded vigorously.
"Or course!" Utau, Rima and Yaya yelled with stars in their eyes.
"Great but what about you?" she asked Amu, who didn't seem excited at all. The three girls stared at Amu intensely, their eyes full of hope.
"Nope, leave me out of it." Amu said. "Today was the only day that you will ever see me on stage."
"Please Amu it's chance a of a lifetime and we can't do it without you." Utau said and Amu shook her head firmly.
"Can't you get someone else to replace me?" Amu asked and Yukari show her head.
"It has to be the four of you." She said and Amu sighed.
"Then sorry." Amu said and began to walk away.
"But Amu!" Utau and Yaya whined, but she kept on ignoring them and walked away, until she felt a tug on her sleeve.
"Whatever you say, can't persuade me Rima." Amu said and turned around, but then froze when she saw tears coming out of the petite girl's eyes.
"Why are you crying Rima!" Amu said and began to panic and quickly made funny faces to try and appease the crying girl.
"Rima please stop crying." Amu whined and Nagihiko let out a small smile.
"She's good at faking it." Nagihiko thought.
"I'll do whatever you want, so please stop crying." Amu said and the minute Rima heard that, she stopped crying and looked at Amu with hopeful eyes.
"Join us then?" Rima asked and Amu stared at her in disbelief.
"No." She said and the water works began once again. "Okay, okay, I'll join." Amu said sighing and Rima hugged her tightly, while in the background Utau and Yaya high-fived each other.
"Great!" Yukari said, beaming. "Once again, I am Sanjo Yukari." She introduced herself and the four girls stood up straight. "Hinamori Amu. Tsukiyomi Hoshina Utau, Mashiro Rima, Yuiki Yaya. I am looking forward to working with you girls."
"Same here!" The four girls yelled and jumped in happiness.
-X- BestFriend or GirlFriend -X-
The next day, Ikuto and Utau was walking down the street to school, when all of a sudden a soccer ball hit him on the back. He grabbed the ball and glared at the person behind him, as he threw the ball. Unfazed she caught the ball and walked closer towards Ikuto.
"Sorry bout that, Amu and I was kicking the ball to each other on the way to school." Kukai said grinning and Amu smirked at him.
"Looks like my aim was perfect, wasn't it Kukai." Amu said and passed the ball over to Kukai.
"You bitch I'm going to kill you." Ikuto said and Amu stuck out a tongue before walking next to Utau. Utau giggled and then gasped when she heard the bell ring.
"We're going to be late!" She yelled and started to speed walk.
"You wanna race, Hoshina." Kukai said with an evil glint in his eyes." He asked grinning and she flipped her pigtails, before getting into a ready position.
"You're on Souma." She said and took off. He stared at her stunned for a while, grinned and then took off after her.
While the two were completely engrossed in their little competition, they didn't notice that they left behind two people.
"We have to hurry also." Amu said but was leisurely walking.
"Your actions are completely different from what you're saying." Ikuto said and Amu shrugged. "It's a beautiful day outside, who wants to spend it cooped up in a classroom all day?" She asked. For a while, it was silent as they were walking side by side.
"So." He said, breaking the silence. "Do you really want to be in the group?"
"Oh that?" Amu asked and then shrugged. "I guess it seems like fun. My friends seem to want to do it so badly, so might as well join them."
"So you're going to do it half-heartedly?" Ikuto asked and Amu froze.
"What?" Amu asked.
"You know that the entertainment world isn't easy, you have to work really hard to make your mark on the world. It's not just something to pass the time with. You have to be serious with it." Ikuto stated and Amu blanked out.
"Of course I wouldn't be surprised even if you failed. Because you have no motivation. You're just like a puppet, dancing along with the music. You won't be able to last." Ikuto grabbed Amu's hand that was going to punch him in the side. She looked up at him and glared.
"You just watch I will make it big and I will have fun and I will work hard." Amu stated and Ikuto smiled before patting her on the head. "That's the answer that I wanted to hear."
"You were testing me!" Amu yelled and he smirked.
"It was for your own good. After all you do zone out all the time with a dumb look on your face." Ikuto said and walked away as Amu chased after him.
At school, the two teens were completely tired out from their little race as they rested their hands on their knees and panted.
"You're pretty good pop-star." Kukai said as he stood up, grinned and gave a thumbs up. Utau stood up and blushed, and crossed her hands.
"I'm not a pop star." She said and smoothed out her uniform. "Well not yet." She then turned around and cupped her hands to her mouth.
"Amu! Ikuto! Hurry up or you're going to be late!" Utau yelled.
"We're already late." Kukai said laughing and Utau shrugged.
"One day late, does it matter." She asked. "You should be happy that we're not surrounded by every single student."
"Well some days it's fine, right Ikuto?" Kukai asked him as he approached and he smirked.
"Hmmm having the girls fawn over you is alright." Ikuto stated and Amu scoffed.
"Huh and then hearing them yell 'Ikuto-samaaaa WE LOVE YOU' is so pleasing to the ear every single day." Amu said.
"They go 'Kya' 'Kya' it annoys me so much." Utau said and Amu nodded.
"You're so jealous that you don't have guys fawn over you all the time." Kukai said and Utau scoffed.
"You haven't seen us in action." Utau said. "Plus Rima has an army of guys, waiting to serve her." As Utau and Kukai walked through the doors, they kept on bickering and the two behind them, sighed.
There it is! My second story! This story had came from the idea of the very first story I had written on this site. But then soon I deleted it and now it re-appeared. It will be very very different from the last story, but with some similarities (one which I have already put into this chapter). Hope that everyone will keep reading to the end and enjoying it!~ AmuletLynx.
