"THIS IS GOING TO BE SOOOO FUN!" Miwa yelled over the voices of the crowd, dragging Kai along to the concert area. "CAN YOU TELL ME NOW WHY YOU'RE HERE WITH ME? AREN'T YOU AN ANTI-SENDOU?"
When Miwa yelled 'Anti-Sendou', many people turned around and gave Kai a death glare. Oh hell.
"First of all, shut up, or I'll get beaten to death by the crowd." Kai hissed, and started his usual lying routine. "And what about me being an Anti-Sendou? Even though I don't like her, I just want to see her and get her autograph...so maybe I can sell it to some other idiotic fanboy later."
But of course, he will never sell his Sendou Aichi things to other people. Ever.
"That's harsh," Miwa commented. "Poor Aichi would be sad if she knew you had said these kind of things..."
"I don't care." Kai crossed his arms, huffing.
Actually, he did care. But he need to keep up his cool image, and thus he must keep on spewing out hurtful words even though he didn't mean it. Kai shedded a tear internally.
"Well~ Don't be mean to her directly then!" Miwa warned, in a playful tone. "If you hurt my Ai-chan, I'm really going to kill you!"
"Yeah, yeah," Kai scoffed. After seeing Miwa's abnormal dark expression, he quickly added, "I'm not that stupid to offend Aichi and her fans. I don't have a death wish."
That answer seemed to satisfy the blonde, since he just shrugged and led Kai to the VIP seats, which was at some kind of tall platform in the front, and they wonderfully have a full view of the stage. As Miwa bounced up and down to the seats, Kai tried not to do the same. It's hard not to be excited when you're going to your top idol's concert, but he didn't want to become a crazy fanboy who is head-over-heels for the idol (Aren't you already one though?).
Kai was practically sweating in excitement when he made himself comfortable in the red plush seat. It's like his dream came true...this is all thanks to Miwa's. This is the first time he ever felt thankful for befriending the blonde in the first place.
Well, that was mean. Kai revaluated his thoughts. Miwa is a nice friend to have around. He takes cares of him despite his asshole personality, and Kai appreciates it.
"I never thought I would see Aichi's concert with you of all people," Miwa commented out of nowhere. "I mean, some other Aichi-lover deserves the seat more that you do."
"...It's not like I hate her that much..." Kai mumbled, shooting a glance at Miwa that obviously told him to shut up. They both remained silent as people filled into the concert hall. Miwa was busy taking selfies of himself and sending texts to practically every contact in his phone that he's at Sendou Aichi's concert. In the meanwhile, Kai glanced around the concert hall. There were different people of all ages attending this concert. Children, old people, teenagers... Aichi is really the queen of idols...
Miwa is still taking selfies, until the lights suddenly went off. While Miwa complained about not being able to take more selfies, Kai glanced at the stage. Was it time...?
"Hello!" the sweet voice rang throughout the speakers, and Kai shuddered. Even though the whole room is still dark and no one could see anything, he was sure who the sweet, syrupy voice belongs to. Aichi's voice was even cuter in person... "I see many people have gathered here...! Thank you all for coming!"
Aichi's sweet, innocent introduction made Kai want to nosebleed. His heart was pounding so rapidly and his palms were sweating.
"The concert will start soon! Please look forwards to it! I hope you'll enjoy the show~!"
With that the microphone was cut off, and ripples of murmuring spread around the concert hall.
"THAT WAS SO CUTE!" Miwa shrieked in Kai's ears, unable to contain his excitement. "DID YOU HEAR HER VOICE? SO SUGARY AND -"
"...Yes...her was was cute..." Kai said truthfully.
After a few minutes of waiting, the lights on the stage switched on, and there was Aichi, in her pure white idol uniform.
"Good evening, everyone~!" Aichi greeted, as her fans cheered. Kai's heart beated rapidly, as he couldn't help but to stare into her bright blue eyes. "You all are so~o~o nice to attend this concert than to do more important things!"
There were choruses of 'Aichi-chan's concerts are the most important things' and such. Aichi smiled delightfully at the positive response.
"Well then, let's get this concert started, shall we~?"
Kai's eyes were glued to the idol, who sang song after song without pausing; except for talking to the crowd. Being 'Sendou Aichi' seemed tiring...and Kai couldn't help but to admire her. She seemed like the type of girl to be bad at physical education, with her fragile looks and all, but her stamina is not to be underestimated.
Kai felt like the luckiest guy on Earth - coming to the top idol - Sendou Aichi's concert without even having to pay anything. Not to mention, he gets to sit in the VIP seats and get to meet Sendou Aichi backstage. Yes, he is truly lucky. He made a mental note to buy fried tofu to offer to the shrine near his apartment.
"Thank you, everyone, for coming today~!" Aichi chirped, signalling the end of the concert. People started cheering, as Sendou Aichi waved to the crowd. Kai felt like it was such a short time...listening to her wonderful voice made it hard to keep track of time.
After this, Kai knew, was the most important part of all...
...Meeting Sendou Aichi...
Kai sweated, as the line was getting shorter. There were a lot of people with VIP seats, and somehow, he and Miwa ended up at the end of the line. Why can't he just be first? Goddamn...he's just so excited that he felt like dying.
"Kai?" Miwa whispered. "You okay? You seem a bit...restless."
"Stop trying to use words that sound too smart for your own wit," Kai snapped. At this point, he'll surely freak out and make a fool of himself in front of Aichi!
"Hey, I was just being worried, like a good friend." Miwa defended himself, shoving the brunette.
"WHAT DO I DO IF SHE TALKS TO ME?!" Kai whispered in a panic. "WHAT DO I DO?"
"Do you need a bag to breathe into?" Miwa raised an eyebrow. "It's just talking to her, and taking photos and such, geez."
"Aren't you...panicky? I don't know why but I'm really freaking out."
"You sure you're not a Sendou Aichi fanboy?" Miwa raised an eyebrow. That made Kai snap his mouth shut, not really wanting to admit his awesomely romantic relationship with the Aichi pillow, and they both waited for their queue in silence...
"Wah, hello!" Aichi greeted Miwa with a smile. When she saw Kai behind the blonde, she let out a small gasp. Is it just Kai...or Aichi...was staring at him? Wait, why is Aichi even gasping at him? Sure, he knows that he is awesomely cool and good-looking, but Aichi seemed surprised to see him. What the hell...?
"So, what's your name?" Aichi smiled sweetly at Miwa, but Kai could see that she stole glances to look at him.
"M-Miwa T-Taishi..." Miwa stuttered, his face red. "N-Nice to meet you!"
"Miwa-kun, is it?" Aichi reached out to shake hands with Miwa. From Kai's perspective, Miwa seemed like he was going to faint from happiness.
"Y-Yes!" Miwa's eyes were shining like his dream had come true. He handed a pad of paper to Aichi. "I've always admired you! I really really like you and meeting you now is like a dream! U-Um, can I have your signature, Sendou-san?"
"Sure thing!" Aichi nodded, grabbing a pen. "And don't call me Sendou-san. Call me Aichi! 'Sendou-san' is wa~a~y too formal!"
While Aichi and Miwa continued chatting, Kai looked at the idol with his cold, green eyes. She was even prettier in person...
Kai thought of his Aichi dakimakura at home. If he loves the real Aichi too, won't that mean that he is cheating on his Aichi pillow? Will the pillow mind if he loves the real Aichi? Kai didn't want to make the pillow feel bad. After all, they cuddled together, watched television together, and the pillow was always by his side. Kai didn't think he could give up on the pillow yet, but he didn't want to be a two-timer either. What should he do...?
"Ah, the last person..." Aichi piped up, and Kai was snapped back in reality. Miwa had gone bouncing out of the backstage area, screaming in joy from an unknown place. He was left alone with Aichi...and well, with Aichi's manager who was in a corner, talking to someone on the phone. So yeah, he's practically alone with the idol.
"What's your name?" Aichi asked, walking closer to Kai. There was a strange emotion on her face, but Kai couldn't identify it yet.
"...Kai Toshiki..." Kai mumbled, looking away. He is really talking to the real Aichi...! What should he do?
"Kai-kun..." Aichi's eyes softened, sighing. "I finally get to know your name, huh..."
"What...?" Kai stared at her confusingly. What was Aichi talking about? He felt his heart beat faster and faster with no reason at all. This familiar feeling...what was it?
"Ah...it's nothing..." Aichi let out a sad smile briefly, before regaining her happy face. "Kai-kun, I'm glad that you came to my concert!"
"Ah..yes. You were very cute today, as well..." Kai muttered without thinking, and the idol blushed.
"K-Kai-kun, d-don't say that! I'm not that cute..." Aichi stammered, her face clearly bright red. Kai raised an eyebrow. Aichi was acting strange towards him. When her other fans told her that she was cute, Aichi just answered it with a smile, and a polite 'thank you'. Something must be going on. Is something stuck to his face? Did his godly appearance offend her in some way?
"You are really cute. I like you a lot, Aichi." Kai looked away, bashful, while Aichi face turned redder. "I've been a fan since your debut."
"I-I like you too, Kai-kun!" Aichi managed to choke out the words, as she glanced at her manager. She turned back to Kai, and whispered, "I really...like you, Kai-kun. Thank you..."
Weird, Kai thought, blushing. It didn't seem like the idol was talking to him as one of her fans...There is something weird going on.
But when weird things happen, weirder things would happen later.
"Y-You see," Aichi slipped a piece of paper in Kai's hand. "I don't have much time to say everything I want to...so..."
Kai unfolded the paper, his eyes widening. On the paper, there were numbers. But don't just any numbers...
"...So...call me?"
cRIES BECAUSE THIS SUCKS I'm sorry it's kinda awkward but aren't all my stories awkward wrrrrryyy
Yeah Aichi gave Kai his phone number
Wait why is it complicated I don't even know why Aichi knew Kai in the first place
