Chapter 1 First Day of Middle School
*Rima's POV*
"Rima! Get up! It's our first day of middle school! We made it to the seventh grade!" Rei yelled as she jumped up and down on my bed.
"Why do you have to be a morning person?" I asked as I pushed her off my bed. She fell off mine onto her's.
"Aren't you excited?" Rei asked.
"No, you're only excited because Aarin came back last night from America," I said grumpily. A whole summer had passed. Aarin had to go to America to visit his parents. They found out Tommy, his little brother, was not coming back with him. Tommy got sick easily so he stayed home.
"We'll get to see Cass and Tympo!" Jazlynn said excited.
"Wasn't Utau gone for most of the summer too?" Angel asked.
"She had a tour in Europe. Her and Ikuto both went there. I think he was searching for their father or something like that," I said.
"What about the love triangle thing with Amu? Didn't Tadase go on vacation for most of the summer with his family too?" Kusukusu asked.
"Yeah, Amu still doesn't know who to choose. When I first met Ikuto I thought that he was Amu's boyfriend so I think she should choose him," I said.
"We can talk about all our friends on the way to school. I think you and Nagi were the only couple that didn't have someone missing," Rei said as she began to change out of her clothes. I sighed then got out of bed.
"Let's see how good you two look in purple," Jazlynn said.
"Done," Rei said as she did a cute pose to show off her new uniform. Since we are in middle school we wear the exact same uniform only the girls are purple and the boys are green. I took my shirt off getting ready for the day.
"Hi girls," we heard a voice as the door opened. We all looked to see Nagi. He was in his green school uniform, white shirt under a black blazer, green tie, and green and white plaid shorts. He still walked us to and from school.
"NAGI!" all us girls yelled. Rei slammed the door in his face.
"Ow!" we heard.
"Why didn't you knock?" I asked as I put my white shirt on then my black blazer.
"Your mom said to just go up. I assumed that meant you were ready," Nagi said through the door.
"Did you... see anything?" I asked. Rei, her charas, and Kusukusu were holding in their laughter.
"Just the door in my face," he said. I gave a sigh of relief. I changed my pj pants for a purple, plaid skirt. I tied my purple tie and put on some white knee high socks.
"I'm done," I said. Nagi then came in.
"Sorry about that," he said.
"It's fine just knock next time," I said.
"Nagi's not getting a kiss for awhile," Rhythm teased.
"Shut up," Nagi said.
"Rima, you look so pretty in purple," Temari said.
"Thanks," I said.
"We better get some breakfast," Rei said. The three of us went downstairs and into the kitchen with our charas behind us.
"Auntie and Uncle must have left," Rei said as she popped two poptarts into the toaster.
"Your dad was already gone and your mom was walking out the door when I got here," Nagi informed. There was a knock on the door. Rei ran so fast to the door that there was a cloud of dust in the shape of her where she was standing. Nagi and his charas looked at me confused.
"Aarin withdrawals," I explained.
"I heard that!" Rei yelled through the house. We heard the door opened and we heard a squeal. About a minute later, Aarin walked in holding Rei up. He was wearing the same green school uniform Nagi was wearing. He had cut his hair when he was in America and it was its normal brown color. He was a lot taller and a bit tan. Cass and Tympo came in after him.
"I guess I was missed," he said.
"She wouldn't shut up," I said. The toaster popped and I grabbed a poptart.
"Oh shut up," Rei said. I couldn't help but smile. Even though people have left this summer we all still talked to each other.
"Did you finish your song?" Rei asked him.
"Yes, you?" he asked.
"Of course. I had Rima sit with me for a week and help me," Rei said.
"I really just texted Nagi the whole time," I admitted.
"Can I read it?" Rei asked.
"No, Sanjo said not to tell each other. When we perform she wants us to be surprised. She also doesn't want us changing it before we sing it," Aarin said.
"Come on. I'll let you read mine," she said.
"What are they talking about?" Nagi asked me.
"Sanjo productions hired them. They were to write a song by themselves during summer vacation and this weekend they will open for Utau to earn fans. Everyone was hating them after they left Easter," I said.
"The same thing happened to Utau when she left," Nagi pointed out.
"No Rei," Aarin said. Rei pouted but got over it. With Jazlynn around Rei has become more childish. Of course she's still responsible but she acts like her age.
"Just get your poptart so we can leave," I said. She grabbed it and tore off two pieces for her charas. I tore off a piece for Kusukusu. We all put our shoes on and walked out to school.
"Maybe we'll all have the same class again," Rei said.
"Don't get your hopes up just in case," Aarin said wrapping his arm around her.
"There are only two classes. We may be split up but we'll see each other at lunch," Nagi said.
"It will be weird not being a guardian this year," I said.
"We can always check up on Yaya-chan, Sanjo-kun, and the new guardians," Nagi said. He held my hand.
"I wonder if anyone changed. I haven't seen any of our friends all summer," Aarin said.
"You mean change more than you," I said.
"What do you mean?" he asked.
"You're a giant now. Also your hair is short," I said.
"And you're tan," Rei added.
"I was working part time at my uncle's beach shack. I got plenty of sun. As for my hair I wanted it short. I was told to keep it long so I had to but now I can do what ever I want with it," he said. I looked at Nagi. He wasn't allowed to cut his hair.
"Sorry man," Aarin said noticing Nagi's situation.
"No need. I know what you mean. I did get a hair cut but my mom only allowed two inches off," he said.
"Why do you have to keep the Nadeshiko act? I mean she's in Europe," Rei said.
"I still have to dance and 'Nadeshiko' has long hair," he replied.
"Sorry," Rei said.
"Once again there is no need to be sorry. I've done it my whole life so I'm used to it. I'm just glad I get to go to school as myself," he said. All of us walked to the school in silence after that. Since everyone knew the whole Nadeshiko thing, Temari could come out but we all knew it was a touchy topic for him. Nagi says he's fine with it but we all know it upsets him.
"There they are," we heard behind us. We all turned to see Amu and her charas. She ran over to us.
"Hi guys! How was your summer?" Amu asked.
"Pretty good. Do you know what class you got?" Rei asked.
"Not yet. Let's go look at them together," she said. The five of us walked up to the green and purple crowd ahead.
"I have class A with...Nikaidou. I swear he's only teaching a grade higher to have us," Amu sweatdropped.
"I have class B," Rei said.
"I do too," Aarin said. They smiled at each other.
"I have A," Nagi said. I couldn't see since I'm so short.
"What did I get? I can't see over the tall people," I said. Nagi let me climb on his back for me to see. I scanned the lists.
"I'm in A," I said. I didn't want to be in a different class then Rei. I needed her.
"We have the same class Rima," Amu said excited. I couldn't help but smile. Maybe a class without Rei was something I need to really blossom.
"I guess we'll see you guys at lunch," Rei said.
"Look, Tadase got B too," Aarin said. We all looked and he was right.
"I'll be in a different class than Tadase-kun," Amu gasped.
"Then date Ikuto," I said.
"This has nothing to do with him," Amu growled.
"I'm just saying," I said.
"Yo, what's up everyone," we heard. We all looked to see a familiar ginger with his arm around Utau. She was in disguise since she was in public. Kukai and Utau had to hide their relationship from the paparazzi. They would start a bunch of rumors and they didn't want drama.
"It's nice to see you..." Rei began.
"Tsukiyomi-chan," Utau said.
"Tsukiyomi-chan, " Rei confirmed. Utau used to hate Rei and Aarin since they were evil and she thought Rei was a copycat but ever since the couple joined Sanjo Production's team they've gotten along with Utau. I would call them friends but not best friends.
"Did you finish your songs? Sanjo wanted to work on them with the band this week," Utau said.
"Got them done and we haven't shared," Aarin said.
"Good, I'll see you all later," Utau said then kissed Kukai's cheek and left. Utau was in high school now so she went to a different school under Tsukiyomi instead of Hoshina.
"How's it been seeing Ut...I mean Tsukiyomi-chan again?" Nagi asked his best friend.
"Pretty awesome. I have missed her. Her and Ikuto's plane landed yesterday but she was too busy to see me so today was the first time I got to see her. You and Rima are lucky since none of you left for pretty much the whole summer," he said.
"That's funny. I pointed that out too," Rei said.
"Good morning everyone," Tadase said as he walked up to us.
"Good morning Tadase-kun. Bad news, we got different classes," Amu said.
"That's too bad. Are any of you in my class?" Tadase asked.
"Rei and I are," Aarin said.
"Great," Tadase said with a smile. I knew he was disappointed that Amu wasn't in his class but I want him to get over it. Amu should be with Ikuto. She's her true self with him.
"Let's get to class," Nagi said. We all began walked to our classrooms.
"Rimahiko!" our fans cheered as we walked down the halls.
"It seems you two are still popular," Rei teased.
"Oh be quiet. What about you two? Are we telling everyone the whole Arihiko and Do Re Mi thing?" I asked.
"We keep that secret. We're still using our stage names," Aarin answered.
"Why?" Amu asked.
"The same reason Utau has to be in disguise," Rei said.
"Oh so fans don't get to you," I said.
"Yep, the entertainment business is a lot tougher than people realize but it's worth it in the end," Rei said.
"Ain't that the truth," Aarin said.
"What's ain't?" Tadase asked.
"Oh its American slang. It's similar to 'isn't' in this case," Aarin explained.
"Americans are weird," I said.
"Guilty as charged," he said. Rei giggled.
"Do people know about Aarin and Rei?" I asked.
"Nope, that's a secret too," Aarin said.
"Why?" Amu asked.
"It obvious that Aarin and I look exactly like Arihiko and Do Re Mi. Those two will be announced soon that they are dating. People would get suspicious if we started dating too," Rei said. They still couldn't go public. I remember back when their relationship started. They weren't allowed to since Aarin was still in Easter at the time.
"We'll see you at lunch," Rei said then her, Aarin, and Tadase went to their class. Kukai kept walking since he was in a whole different grade level. Amu, Nagi and I walked into our class to see Nikaidou. Maybe Amu was right. He moved up a grade just to have us in class.
"Good morning class," he said. We all sat in a desk. I sat in between Amu and Nagi in the back. Now I can pass notes and talk without him knowing.
"We have Rimahiko in this class!" a fangirl said to her friends then they squealed.
"Nagi, what are we going to do after school? We don't have guardian meetings anymore," I asked.
"Maybe you and I could do something. Rei and Aarin will be gone so it will just be me walking you home," he said.
"A romantic walk so cute!" some girls who overheard us cheered.
"Maybe we should take the long way since fans might follow," he whispered in my ear.
"Alright but that's a bit far," I said.
"I'll carry you if you want," he offered.
"Good," I said.
"It's going to be hard for you guys to be a couple with everyone staring at you during school," Amu said.
"It will be fine," Nagi said then pecked my cheek. There were screams from both boys and girls. I think one girl might have fainted.
"Fujisaki-kun, could you please keep to yourself during class?" Nikaidou asked.
"Sorry Nikaidou-sensei," he said.
~~~~*Time Skip*~~~~
"You got in trouble for passing notes?" Amu asked my cousin. All of us were on the roof eating lunch.
"Yeah, I got detention. Since I'm busy tonight I'll have to serve it tomorrow morning," she said.
"Why were you passing notes in the first place?" Kukai asked.
"I want to see Aarin's song but he's being stubborn," she said.
"I'm just listening to our boss. You know the one that hired us and told us specifically not to show each other. Do you want to stop singing?" Aarin said.
"No," Rei said as she pouted.
"Are you still going to walk with us tomorrow morning?" Nagi asked Aarin.
"No, I got detention too since I was the one that Rei was giving the note to," he said.
"Nice," Kukai said sarcastically.
"Are you coming with us to go see Utau?" Rei asked him.
"Of course," Kukai answered.
"What are you doing after school Amu-chan?" Tadase asked.
"She's hanging out with me," we all heard. Ikuto popped out of no where.
"NO I'M NOT!" Amu yelled.
"Amu-koi, didn't you miss me? I've been gone all summer," Ikuto said pretending to be hurt.
"I finally got some peace and quiet," Amu said.
"You know you love me," Ikuto said as he sat in between Tadase and Amu. Tadase was so pissed but decided not to cause a scene. Good. Tadase a good kid but not the one for Amu. Anyway Tadamu just sounds weird. Amuto has a ring to it.
"Rima, you're daydreaming," Nagi said.
"What?" I said snapping out of my thoughts.
"You alright Rima?" Rei asked.
"Yeah, just thinking," I said.
"It's weird having lunch without Yaya always trying to steal my sweats," Amu said.
"I agree but I usually give mine to her anyway," Rei said.
"I just noticed that the charas aren't here," Kukai said.
"Kusukusu told me that Kiseki had a chara meeting," I said.
"During lunch? They'll be starving by the time they come back," Tadase said.
"Save some food in your pocket or bag," Aarin said. All of us saved some food for our charas.
"Room for one more?" we heard.
"Nami!" Rei yelled as she ran up to her friend and hugged her. Nami hugged back. Those two have kept in touch all summer. If you saw them for the first time now you would never believe that they used to be enemies.
"What are you doing here?" Rei asked.
"My step-dad got a job in the city next door," Nami explained.
"Are you coming to school here?" Rei asked.
"No, since we moved my step-dad thought it was best that my mom home school me," Nami said.
"Your mom was one of my favorite teachers," Rei said.
"You can come over some time," she said.
"I can't this week with the whole Sanjo Productions thing but maybe next week," Rei said.
"We also have detention tomorrow morning," Aarin told her.
"What did you do?" Nami asked Rei.
"Why do you assume I did it?" Rei asked pretending to be innocent.
"I know you," Nami said. The two friends sat back down.
"How has the Rimahiko thing been going?" Nami asked me. I didn't fully trust Nami yet but I was starting to like her.
"Pretty difficult with the fans not leaving us alone. We now have to go the long way home," I said.
"It can't be that bad. You have Nagi and he always gives you a piggy back ride," Rei pointed out.
"I know but its going to be a pain dodging Rimahiko fans. I wish they would just leave us alone," I said.
"Careful what you wish for," Nami said. I was about to question her but the bell rang meaning lunch was over.
~~~~*Time Skip*~~~~
"Bye Rima. Tell auntie and uncle that I'm at Aarin's," Rei said while giving me a hug.
"I will," I said. Aarin, Rei, and Kukai all got in a limo that Utau sent them and left.
"Rima, let's go," Nagi said. We waved to the rest of our friends as we left.
"Tell me when you get tired and I'll carry you," he said.
"I will," I said. Him and I walked hand in hand home, talking about our friends, school, and future dates.
"Rima, we're home," Kusukusu said. My home life was still bad considering my parents still fight. Nagi gave me hand a gentle squeeze.
"If you need me I'm just down the street," he said then kissed my cheek. I couldn't help but smile at him.
"Rima, there's a festival next month. Would you like to go with me?" he asked. I pecked his lips.
"Of course," I said.
"Great," he said. He kissed me again then walked home. We were going to hang out but his mom needed him for some dance thing.
"It's peace time ," Kusukusu said and sighed with happiness.
"After all that drama in sixth grade, I'm glad there is no more Easter. We no longer really need to charanari unless there is an X egg every once in a while. I think life will be easier," I said as I walked inside and then up to my and Rei's room.
"When do you think Rei will be home?" Kusukusu asked.
"I don't know. I assume she'll call if she will be there late," I said as I plopped my school bag on my desk. This room used to be clean and tidy. Ever since Rei started working for Sanjo productions, it's become full with Rei's guitar and other music things. There are crumpled papers every where from lyrics that Rei decided to scrap.
"Maybe Su can come over and clean up," Kusukusu said noticing how messy the room has become.
"Maybe," I said.
*Rei's POV*
"That was great. The band really likes your songs," Sanjo said as Aarin and I were on the couch relaxing. I had my head in his lap. He would rub my temples. This was a lot harder than I thought. When we were in Easter they practically did everything except the lyrics. This time we have to go over every note, key, melody, harmony, and much more that makes my head spin. In the end it will be worth it.
"You guys sounded great," Kukai said.
"You heard both of us?" Aarin asked. Him and I recorded separately so we couldn't hear each other.
"Yeah, so did Utau," he said.
"I admit it's really good," Utau said.
"That means a lot," I said honestly. Utau doesn't totally trust us yet but she's getting there.
"Anyway, you'll need to come back the same time tomorrow. We need to finish every little detail, then later in the week we'll go to the stage and warm up and go over effects and choreography. Aarin and I agreed and then left. He insisted on walking me home.
*Rima's POV*
"Done," I said as I finished my homework. Junior high teachers are pretty harsh, giving homework on the first day.
"I'M HOME!" boomed Rei's voice. No one was home but me. I guess mama and papa had some extra work to do. I heard loud footsteps running up the stairs. The door flew wide open to reveal my cousin.
"How was rehearsing?" I asked.
"Tiring but awesome," she said as she sat on her bed.
"I assume you didn't hear Aarin's song," I guessed.
"Correct, I'm guessing you made out with Nagi today," she guessed. Even though Nagi and I have been together awhile, I still blushed when Rei said those kind of things.
"No, he had a dance thing come up," I said.
"Aww my poor little cousin didn't get her Nagi time," Rei said. I just rolled my eyes. I love Rei but she can get on my nerves. We both heard a beep.
"Speaking of Nagi," Rei said. I quickly grabbed my phone and Rei was right. It was a text from Nagi.
To Rima:
Sorry about ditching you. It turns out that a few famous dance teachers are in Japan and were dying to meet Nadeshiko. My mother also sends her apology. I know it's only been about an hour or two but I miss you. I promise to make it up to you. How about you and I go on a date Saturday before Utau's concert? I'll take you to dinner.
From Nagihiko
"What did he say?" Rei asked as she began to work on her homework.
"He said he wants to take me out to dinner before Utau's concert."
"It better be before and not during. Don't get caught up in each other and forget. I want my cousin there to see me start over and make my way up the entertainment ladder," Rei said.
"Nice poetry," I said.
"I've been increasing my vocabulary to write better lyrics," she said.
"Text Nagi back," Kusukusu said reminding me about his text.
To Nagihiko:
It's ok. I know dancing is very important to you and your family. Also about dinner, sounds fun! Where are we going?
p.s. Rei said that we better be at the concert
From Rima:
"Where are you eating?" Angel asked.
"Don't know yet," I said. I knew I had a goofy grin on my face. Another beep was heard and I quickly read the message.
To Rima:
Dinner is a surprise. Also tell Rei that I promise not to keep you to myself too long. Rima, I want you to know that dancing is important but you are very important to me too.
From Nagihiko
I felt butterflies in my stomach. I knew he really liked me but for some reason I felt giddy and bubbly. I never knew I was so important to him.
"So...details," Rei said not even pretending to do her homework. Our charas were looking at me waiting for me to tell them.
"He said it's a surprise," I said.
"Is that the reason your face got all red?" Jazlynn asked.
"No," I whispered.
"Tell us! Tell us!" Kusukusu cheered.
"He said to tell Rei that he won't keep me too long and that I... I was important to him," I said.
"Awwww," all four said. Rei got up and hugged me. I was totally embarrassed but that butterfly feeling was still there.
"Rima's first love," Angel cheered. Kusukusu giggled happily. Love? Did I love Nagi? We've been together for awhile, not quite a year, and almost never fought anymore unless it was about comedy shows then I always corrected him.
"Angel you made her face more red," Jazlynn pointed out.
"I'm taking a shower," I announced then went into the bathroom. I looked into the mirror and I couldn't help but smile. I am important to Nagi and now I've decided that he is important to me. If it wasn't for him then I don't know where I'd be. I turned on the water making sure it wasn't too cold.
*Nagi's POV*
"I feel so bad," I said.
"Why? You met the most famous European dance teachers," Temari said concerned for her bearer.
"I sort of ditched Rima today. I didn't mean to but I promised to make it up to her," I said.
"You told her she was important to you in your text. She must have turned red," Rhythm teased.
"I was telling the truth. Now I can't wait till Saturday," I said.
"Where are you taking her?" Temari asked.
"It's a surprise. Knowing you two, you'd go up to Kusukusu and tell her then she'd tell Rima," I said.
"He knows us too well," Rhythm said. I planned on doing something really special this Saturday. I just hope I don't chicken out of it. I heard a beep. I checked my phone and I had a text from Rei.
To Nagihiko:
I want to thank you for cheering Rima up today. She won't admit it but she was lonely at home today and I came home a little later than I planned. You should've seen her face when she read your text. I'm glad she found a guy like you.
p.s. You better not take too long b/c this concert is important to me and you're not the only one that needs Rima
p.s.s. Where are you taking Rima? I promise not to tell.
From Rei
"Rei really wants Rima at that concert," Rhythm said reading over my shoulder.
To Rei:
I promise not to make her late. Also I want this date to be a surprise. I didn't even tell Rhythm and Temari. They'll complain about it tomorrow. I want Rima having no way of knowing what's going to happen. Don't worry, it's nothing bad.
From Nagihiko
"HEY!" Rhythm whined as he read the message I sent.
"What?" I asked.
"I will not complain tomorrow," Rhythm said. I just smiled at him.
"We better get ready for bed," Temari said. I agreed with her and the three of us got ready to go to sleep.
Temari: Daydreamer1105 decided to do something she likes to call "question(s) on the chapter". It's where once of us characters ask a question about the current chapter. So here's question # 1.
Rhythm: Where do you think Nagi's going to take Rima and what do you think he's going to do that's special?
Kusukusu: We hope you enjoyed and are excited for the sequel. Review please
