Chapter Two:
"Yes, I would!" I say before I realize it. I have always wanted to try new things; I guess this is a good opportunity. Shifting is going around as a figure is approaching. I turn towards the noise to see my dad coming closer. "Otto-san! I want to become an idol!" I tell him excitedly.
"That's great, kiddo! I know you can do it, don't give up and try your best. Just be you and you'll be fine! Mom would've been proud." He supports me with lots of enthusiasm; like I'm a kid.
"Otto-san, Aiy-chan said that she wants me to be an idol! She can make me an idol! Can I try? I'll be good and I'll make it on the charts; you'll see! I'll be with you at home, too! Please?" I beg him childishly.
"Miyuki, of course! Though, I have to speak to 'Aiy-san'." I notice the crowd left and not many people are still here, though the girl from before is.
"Ne, ne, Miyuki-chan, I'm going to talk to your Otto-san about you being an idol. We'll be across the street. I nod as an answer and the door's bell rings as they walk out. To pass time, I listen to some music when I find one that I really like- Smile Magic- by some male singer named Ittoki, Otoya. I wonder who that is… After listening, I go over to the piano and try to play what I remember. 'I hope I remember to play the right keys; after all, I only hear the song once… it's worth a try.' I think to myself as I get seated and rest my hands on the keys. I close my eyes, mentally going over the song in my head one last time. Then I start to play, enjoying the great song.

I open my eyes to see seven guys staring at me with a funny look. "Oh, minna! I'm over here!" My head turns to the tangerine haired girl who is now smiling and waving to the boys.
"Haru-chan! That person plays a lot like how you do with the piano; she's also a good singer!" a tall teenage male with round glasses shouts to her.
Ding-dong!
Turning towards the door, once again, I see Otto-san and Aiy-chan walking in. I push the piano chair away and go to run over. In less than five seconds, I manage to trip over the said chair and begin falling-closing my eyes as I await the ground coming in contact with my face. Nothing but… hands? I open my eyes to see the red haired boy from the group of people who just recently entered holding me by the shoulders and Otto-san and Aiy-chan standing behind him with worried looks. He stopped me from falling. "Are you alright?" He asks in a voice I recognize, not from actually meeting but from the song I decided I like and just played.
"Eh? Are you… I… What was it again? Itt… Ittoki… Otoya? Ittoki Otoya-san, that was it! Are you him?" I ask curiously, tilting my head slightly to the side.
Otoya's POV
I walk to the music store to meet Nanami with the other STARISH members. Once we are near the door, I hear a piano version of a song that I sing- Smile Magic. There is a sweet, kind voice accompanying it. The voice sounds unfamiliar but the piano playing style is like Nanami's. Like. "Do you guys hear that?" Syo asks. We all nod.
"We should see who is singing." Tokiya suggests as more of a command. Masato opens the door and we see a girl at the grand piano. Her hair is up in a high ponytail that ends about three inches above her waist. The mysterious girl's hair is a tangerine color, like Nanami's but grows into a red and darkens the farther down it goes. She is wearing a cute, white short-sleeve V-neck with red floral designs on it. She opens her beautiful green/blue eyes—WAIT! Did I say BEAUTIFUL?!—Nanami notices us now.
"Oh, minna! I'm over here!" Nanami calls us over.
"Haru-chan! That person plays a lot like you with the piano; she's also a good singer!" Natsuki said bluntly. Natsuki! Great, he might've offended her!
Ding-dong!
The door opens and two people come in. A man and a young woman in a business outfit. The girl at the piano must recognize them because she gets up and starts to take some steps… until she trips on the piano chair and starts to fall. I run, trying to make it on time to catch her; I do.
"Are you alright?" I ask worriedly. Her eyes widen slightly and it looks like she might notice it's me… from STARISH, with the othe STARISH members behind me… I brace myself for the creepy fan-girl to overcome but nothing happens.
"Eh? Are you… I… What was it again? Itt… Ittoki… Otoya? Ittoki Otoya-san, that was it! Are you him?" She asks as she tilts her head to the side. My heart rate is speeding up and for some reason, the cute look she is giving me is making my face heat up.
"H-hai." I barely manage to stutter the word out.
"You sing Smile Magic?" She asks.
"Yeah…" I reply, getting more comfortable.
"It's a good song, I like it… It's very… upbeat. I hope I'll get to listen to it a second time." She compliments me.
"Eh?! This was only your first time hearing it? I heard you playing while I was outside!" I can't believe this. She just played piano version and only heard it once?
"Oh? Hai… Oh, Otto-san, Aiy-chan," She looks past me. "Otto-san, onigai!" she begged.
"Yes, I agreed, you can follow your dreams with Aiyami-san. Just don't give up. Also, I will be going on a business trip to America again but without you. You will be staying with Aiyami-san from now on until I get back, okay?" The girl is now—Eh?!—Crying?!
"M-Miyu-chan?! Don't worry, you'll have me to keep you company!" Said the person called Aiyami. What is going on?
That is it for now! I worked hard on this, sorry for not updating in a while! P.S. I don't own Uta No Prince-Sama or any of the songs I put up.
