So I'll be writing bonus episodes when I feel I can't tie it in with the series episode (though this one I could have…). They can be set at any time in the PGSM timeline. Enjoy!

Bonus Episode: Romance

I love you baby baby
Raito keshite
Baby Baby kiss wo shite
Baby Baby
Romance kizuite
Hora kakuretenaide
Hora hajimaru wa

Do you remember those days? The ones where you were so shy of your feelings for me? I do, as clearly as daylight. I remember chasing you around the pillars of the moon castle, laughing and giggling, trying to tickle a confession out of you.

Kyou wa otenki na no
Mado utsuru anata
Koi wo kizandeku daiarii
Okimari desu

Looking out of the studio's window, it's not my manager's face I see but yours. I remember our love from those days, innocent at first and then it grew into smoldering passion. Your teeth tugged at my skin. Your hands roamed my body and by the end of it, your ivory skin glistened with sweat.

Demo nanika sukoshi kyori kanjiteru wa
Anata watashi no mune ni
Kagi wo kakete shimau wa

Here we are in this world, in this life time, where you do not remember all of this. It feels lonely without you sometimes but…

Deaeta kiseki wa
Guuzen ja nai no ni

We will meet again, there's no doubt about it. Even if you do not remember our past, that's okay. I'll just make you fall in love with me again.


"Great job, Minako!" Sugao Saitou, Minako's manager, cheers. "Your voice is beautiful as always!"

"Thank you and good work to you too!" Minako replies cheerfully, wiping the sweat from her face with a white face towel.

"So I was thinking of releasing this single "Romance" by the end of this month." Sugoa grins as they both start exiting the studio room and walking towards Minako's dressing room. "This single is sure to be a hit, especially after "C'est la vie!"

Minako pauses, contemplating, before she replies.

"Wouldn't it be too soon, Saitou-san? It'll be released a month and a half after "C'est la vie." Why don't we wait for a bit."

Sugoa looked at the idol in puzzlement.

"Yes, but Minako, honey, if we don't release new singles, month by month, then the fan base will start dwindling!"

Minako turned her head to the side before smiling ruefully.

"This song…is special Saitou-san. I know they all are, but I'd like to release this one later."

Sugoa frowned.

"Okay Minako…but in return you'll have to do more commercials to make up for it!"

Minako's expression immediately brightened.

"Deal!"

Sugoa continued rambling off about idol's next project. Minako hung back a little and smiled in secret delight, away from her manager's observant eyes.

I'll release this single after we finally meet, Mars…
