Nanami Haruka had always thought that she was a normal girl from the countryside, came to Saotome Academy to study music. She was never the type to date or to flirt around with boys, she was too shy to even tell them "Hello", so that's why she didn't even try to find a boyfriend. She felt complete only knowing that she had a career as a composer with Starish and that was enough for her. She would never think to date one of the band's boys, she was seeing them all as her brothers that she had never had.
She was walking on the big halls with her head in the clouds. She needed to compose the songs for the duet project with Heavens and she was already starting to feel overwhelmed by the amount of work she had to do. She had to compose seven different songs suited for each pair, but for that she first needed to know Heavens. And her heart was saying her it's not such a great idea to be in the same room with that band, but she had an appointment the next day with them. Now, she was meeting with Starish.
She entered the room and saw all seven boys practicing their choreography for the Triple S competition. They were amazing. She had never seen such a perfect timing in moves and such grace. She was sure that they would win the competition and become the best boy band of all the times. She took three steps ahead, trying not to make a noise because she didn't want to bother them, but all of the seven turned their heads back to see who was there. When they saw Nanami, everybody ran towards her and formed a circle around their most favorite person in the world. Little did she know how every single one of them was madly in love with her, even if the rules said they shouldn't have.
"Haruka, good to see you!" Cecil started to talk, breaking the silence that had fallen in the room. "Wait…Why do you have those dark circles around eyes? Did you spend your night composing songs for us again?"
Nanami nodded. She was not feeling comfortable to receive many questions from Cecil because she knew very well that she should have slept instead of composing. But that wasn't his business, it was her choice to do that.
"Nanami, if you really want us to win the contest, you should rest first. Without your songs, we wouldn't be here and we are all grateful for the effort you put, but please, once in your life put yourself on the first place, make yourself your number one priority." Ichinose said very soberly and serious.
Suddenly, the door opened with a noise and Saotome entered quietly in the room. It was very odd that he didn't enter on the window or maybe from the ceiling, instead, he was walking calm towards Haruka Nanami. Everybody was confused, the look Saotome had on his face wasn't a great expression.
"Miss Nanami and mister Jinguji in my office, know. We have business to plan." he said and then left.
Nanami and Ren looked at each other with a confused look. What on Earth did Saotome want from them? Both were feeling their hearts beating fast as they were approaching together the principal's office. Ren opened the door and let Haruka enter first, like a gentleman he was. Saotome was staying at his desk with a concerned look on his face. This wasn't very good.
"I've called you here to tell you something that your families have hidden from you since birth and now it's time for you to know." he said full of sadness.
Ren and Haruka looked at each other again. They didn't know what was going on, they were feeling like the sky would fall on them in every second.
"Miss Nanami, you are not who you think you are. All your life was a lie. Your parents have hidden this from you, but you actually are a princess, and you, mister Jinguji, are a prince. I know this sounds very stupid, but that's how it is. If you don't believe me, go ask your parents. You were both raised here, in Japan, but you were born somewhere else, in two kingdoms far away from here. And now it's time for you to take your responsibilities seriously by starting with your marriage."
"What?" shouted Nanami and Ren together.
"We can't marry! We have only eighteen years old!" shouted Ren very angry.
"Mister Jiguji, you need to understand that this is an arranged marriage. You were planned to marry since you were babies and this can't change right now." said Saotome, raising his voice.
Even if Ren was in love with Haruka he couldn't let this thing to hurt her, he was ready to cancel this wedding for her. He knew that she didn't love him as he did so he needed to cancel this wedding immediately.
