Chapter 3: Hikari the voice of an angel
Hikari yawned as she continued to walk down the hall to the cafeteria.
''I still lack sleep..'' Hikari mumbled as she almost tripped over my own two feet.
''HIKARI-CHAN!'' Hikari heard Tomochika shouted as she launched herself at her and giving me a big bear hug, if Hikari didn't support herself at the wall, they would have both straight for the ground.
''WOAH! Tomochika-Chan relax!'' Hikari said as she tried to control her balance.
''Well you two are quite energetic in the morning.'' Hikari heard Haruka giggle behind them and turned around to greet her with a bright smile on her face.
''Good morning Onee-Chan!''
''Good morning Hikari. Good morning Tomo-Chan'' Haruka said and smiled as we continued to walk to the cafeteria.
The girls got their tray of food and sat on a nearby table.
''AH! PEACE!'' Hikari said as she stretched her arms and leaned back to the chair, almost falling of it if Tomochika didn't hold it back in place.
''Haha. I guess being around the princes made you busy huh Hikari?'' Tomochika asked as she sat down next to Haruka and Hikari stopped strecthing and looked at Tomochika who was eating peacefully.
''Princes?'' Hikari asked confused.
''I haven't told you have I? Well in my opinion it's hard being a girl when you are in a situation with a bunch of hot guys! They have so handsome faces and so beautiful voices. I guess you call them the '' Princes Of Music'' Tomochika answered with a smile.
''And guess what. Every single girl is crazy for them here! So they're pretty jealous at us.'' Tomochika said with a grin, and Hikari could feel glares stabbing her on the back.
''Jealous? They must be blind.'' Hikari mumbled while eating and Haruka chuckled.
The girls finished the trays of food and headed for the classroom. As soon they got into the classroom Masato, Natsuki and Otoya came to them.
''Good Morning Tomochika, Nanami-San, Hikari-San!'' Otoya greeted them with a bright smile.
''Good morning everyone.'' Haruka said. They were all chatting happily and Hikari smiled and slipped out of the conversation and sat on her chair. gazing out the window.
It wasn't very long until Ringo came in and the chatting toned down and everybody went back to their seats.
''Good morning everyone!'' Ringo-Sensei said and twirled around to the desk.
When Ringo noticed Hikari she got even happier and walked over to her, snapping the girl back to reality.
''Nee. Hikari-Chan! You are going to write a song like everyone else!'' Ringo said, looking at the girl who was stared back at her.
''EEEH?!'' Everybody in the class shouted and Hikari covered her ears.
''The recording will be next week! Have a song by then, okay?'' Ringo said and Otoya got up.
''Will she do the lyrics and composing all by herself?!'' He assked and everyone nodded in wonder.
''Of course! After all she took the idol course and composing course!'' Ringo said and everyone looked at Hikari in shock, who turned her gaze towards the window again. ''Thank you for telling me Ringo-Sensei'' Hikari muttered and tapped the pencil she was holding on the desk while Ringo made his way back to the desk to start class.
Hikari seemed like she was out of it all the time on class, she continued to look out the winodow and didn't bother to pay attention to class, but turned her gaze from the window and to the paper in front of her to scribble something down before looking at the window again, and this of course, caught everyone's attention as they kept glancing at Hikari's direction.
As soon class ended Tomochika, Otoya, Natsuki, Masato and Haruka crowded Hikari before she could even stand up from her seat.
Hikari looked at them confused, ''What's wrong?'' Hikari asked as she gathered her notes.
''Don't come with ' What's wrong' You didn't even tell us that you took both the idol and composing course?!'' Masato said, a bit annoyed.
''Well you never asked. So excuse me because I'm starving and I have som composing to do and lyrics to write." Hikari said with a sigh and got up, not minding them shouting at her to come back.
Somehow Hikari didn't really have the appetite to eat. So she just bought a strawberry milkshake and sat on a table by the window.
''Compose the music and write the lyrics, huh...'' Hikari mumbled to herself, looking out to the courtyard as she drank the milkshake.
After Hikari left the classroom, the guys and Haruka and Tomochika stood there in shock.
Then the guys turned to Haruka, ''Haruka. Did you know this?'' Natsuki asked, looking at the girl who was shaking her head.
''No. She haven't told me a thing about this.'' Haruka said with a worried expression.
''Well. Let's go after her!'' Otoya suggested and everyone shoooked their heads.
''Eh? Why not?!'' He asked pouting.
''I think she wants to be alone now.'' Tomochika said with a exasperated sigh.
''Well then let's stalk her!'' Otoya suggested and everyone looked at him with a questioning face.
''No?'' He sighed and everyone nodded.
''But.. PLEEASE! I'M WORRIED ABOUT HER! AND I'M SURE YOU GUYS ARE TOO!'' Otoya pouted and everyone flinched because he used his puppy dog eyes.
Everyone agreed in the end and they went to the cafeteria. When they got there they saw Hikari sitting on a table near the window with a strawberry milkshake in her hand while glancing at the window and scribbling something down on her notes like she did in class.
The group were still staring at her when they heard some voices behind them, making them flinch.
''What are you guys doing?'' Syo asked and everyone turned to face him.
''Lady? Are you here too? Why?'' Ren asked and Haruka didn't know what to answer the flirt, messing up her words. ''Ehm.. Well...''
''Hikari is taking the idol and composing course and she is going to do a song by herself. So we were worried -'' Tomochika started when she got off in the middle of her sentence by Syo and Ren.
''So all of you ended up stalking her.'' They said and everyone nodded.
''Well, I don't think it's going well for you because she isn't there now.'' Syo said, pointing at where Hikari was sitting and everyone looked back at the table where he was pointing, and indeed, Hikari was no where.
''EH?! WE LOST HER?!'' Their jaw dropped as they shouted, making the students nearby looking at them with a weird expression.
(Those idiots. They never noticed that I saw them did they?) Hikari thought as she glanced behind her, seeing that the others were looking everywhere for her, in truth, she just went down the other corridor.
Hikari was heading towards their room. When she got there she immediately took out a piece of paper and a pencil, sat down on her desk and began to write what was in her mind. Hikari didn't notice that is has gone so many hours don't, because when she glanced up at the clock she could see that it was already 4 PM. And she came into the room like 11 AM.
''Wow. I've been here long...'' Hikari mumbled, looking down at all the paper that was scattered around the desk, sighing, she leaned down on the table, resting her cheeks on one of her arms and drifted off to sleep.
''It's no use.'' Haruka said, closing the door to the practice room.
''She's not in any of the practice room we have been searching.'' Haruka sighed and opened the door to another practice room, but with no luck to see that Hikari was there.
''Oh! Haruka! What about we check your room?'' Otoya asked.
''Huh? Uhm sure.'' Haruka tilted her head in confusion, but agreed to go their room.
''I doubt that Hikari is in there though...'' Tomochika mumbled as Haruka unlocked the door and everybody went it.
And to much of their suprise they saw Hikari on a nearby desk sleeping peacefully
''Ah.. She's sleeping.'' Tomochika said while smiling.
She took a blanket and draped it over Hikari's shoulder, making her stir, but not wake up.
''Look at all these notes and crumbled paper.'' Ren said while picking one and looking at it. Haruka picked up one that seemed like it was just written on and started humming to it.
Her eyes widened when she hummed the last sentence.
''It got such a happy and nice tune..'' Haruka mumbled and everyone went to her.
They looked at the paper and their eyes went right to Hikari who was still sleeping.
''I didn't think little birdie could write songs like this...'' Ren said and everyone nodded.
''Does she even have any flaws?'' Tomochika asked with a chuckle.
Otoya picked up another paper. ''This is the lyrics I think.'' He said and the rest of the group went over to him, careful to not cause any noice or step on any paper.
''Everything seems so energetic and calm in her songs.'' Syo said and glanced at Hikari who was still sleeping peacefully on the desk.
(Voices... Why can I hear voices in our room?) Hikari slowly opened her eyes and scanned the room and let out a yelp when she saw the others staring at her notes.
''HEY!'' Hikari screamed and everyone flinched.
Hikari glared at everyone who was in the room. ''Why are you all here? And who gave you permission to just read my notes like that?!''
Hikari soon realized that she had spread all of the papers she had been writing and quickly snatched them from Otoya's hands.
She sighed and stared at them while rubbing her sleepy eyes.
''Why are you guys here?'' I asked after a long silence.
''Huh? Oh yeah.. Everyone was worried about you so we wanted to help.'' Haruka answered and Hikari frowned.
''You know I didn't ask for help? Or get stalked? '' I raised an eyebrow at Otoya who flinched in surprise as I put the stacked notes on the edge of the desk.
''But! Please! We don't need to help you with the writing! We just want to help anyway we can!'' Otoya protested and everyone nodded. Hikari let out a exasperated sigh and turned to them after she got a new piece of paper.
''This is something I have to do, alright? So the way you can help me is to not interrupt when I'm focusing, but I will let you stay in here.'' Hikari said and everyone nodded.
Hikari went back to the papers in front of her while the others chatted happily and bringing her water from time to time.
Hikari didn't realize that the recording was tomorrow. She had already finished the song thanks to everyone's help and the only thing she did was to practice her singing, because she was still struggling with the high tone.
Hikari was in the courtyard practicing when the others came to her.
''Hikari! There you are!'' Tomochika said as she launched herself at the girl who turned around.
''Ack! Tomochika-Chan you're heavier than Onee-Chan!'' Hikari said and everybody laughed.
''That was mean said Hikari!'' Tomochika pouted.
''Heh heh. Why are you guys here though?'' Hikari asked and everybody smiled.
''We wanted to say good luck tomorrow! And that we will be watching from the screen in the hallway!'' Syo said and everyone nodded.
Hikari smiled softly, ''Thanks everyone.'' Hikari said and they all gave her a thumbs up, wishing her good luck as they left, leaving the girl alone once again.
''Good luck huh...'' Hikari muttered, looking at the clear blue sky with a empty look, before practicing once again.
It was the day of the recording day. Ringo came to Hikari and said to follow him.
Hikari did as she was told and she took a glance behind her and saw everyone smiling at her wishing me luck.
Hikari smiled back as she went out of the door.
Hikari was in the recording room when she saw the S class teacher along with Tokiya, Ren and Syo.
''Wait. Why are you guys here?'' Hikari asked confused.
''We got permission to go with Hyuga-Sensei to watch you sing.'' Tokiya said with an expressionless look.
''Oh is that so?'' Hikari said and everyone nodded.
''Well Hikari. Are you ready?'' Hyuga-Sensei said and Hikari nodded while smiling.
''Yes! '' Hikari said and the other guys gave me a thumbs up. Hikari went in to the little room where the headphones were and waited till the music started. When it did Hikari took a quick breath and began singing with a smile.
Changin' My life - Love Chronicle
Naze darou koi no shikata sae sukkari wasureteta
Deai wa itsuka kuru wakare no hajimari to
Itsunomanika kimetsukete ita
Yogoreta SUNI-KA- no hodoketa himo musunde kureta
Hanikamu anata no egao asahi wo abite tokimeita kyuu ni
Ai saretai kara ai shitai wake ja nai
Massugu ai suru yuuki wo kureta ne
Kore kara no tabi ni futari ima chikau yo
Nani ga attemo kono te hanasanai zutto
Fushigi da ne itsumo no keshiki mo tokubetsu ni miete kuru
Hana ya tori ya umi kaze yama amai taiyou

Tokenai JIGUSO- no saigo no PI-SU mitsuketa yo
Ookina anata no senaka watashi mamoraretsuite yuku eien ni
Ima made konna ni mawarimichi shita kedo
Massugu ai suru jishin wo moteta ne

When the song ended, Hikari took off the headphones and placed them on their stand. She then turned around and saw that the guys were smiling. Besides that Syo was blushing a bit. Hikari looked at him confused until Hyuga-Sensei disturbed.
''The song was great Hikari. Your score will be up tomorrow. You can go now.'' He said and Hikari nodded and went out of the door.
Haruka was in the hallway, looking at the screen with the others and her eyes was wide at Hikari's song and voice.
Hikari really had the voice of an angel, just like their grandma had described her.
Hikari didn't let them hear her song until she was going to record it. Everyone was amazed by her voice and song.
The others waited for Hikari in the cafeteria with the rest of the guys.
''So. Ren how was her recording?'' Masato asked.
''Oh? Little Birdie had a wonderful voice. I was absored to it like Little Lamb's kindness.'' He said while winking at Haruka making her blush.
It wasn't long before someone smacked his head and everyone looked up and saw Hikari.
''You're not flirting with her in my watch Ren.'' She said while smiling, but her smile was... Scary.
''Ah! Hikari! Your song was amazing! I really loved it!'' Otoya said and Hikari smiled a bright smile.
''Thanks Otoya-Kun!''
''What did Ryuga-San say? '' Masato asked.
''Oh, he just said that my score will be up tomorrow. That's all.'' Hikari answered as she sat down next to Haruka.
''Was that all he said?'' Tomochika asked and Hikari nodded, sipping at her cup of milkshake.
''Yup. But that's okay. He said my song was great and that really flattered me, being praised by someone like him is amazing.'' She said while drinking her strawberry milshake.
The group chatted happily for some minutes and then decided to go back to their respective rooms.
But just about we were parting ways, Haruka took a glance back and saw Syo staring at Hikari.
(Did something happen?) Haruka thought, but ignored the feeling.
The moment the girls got into their room, Hikari plopped down on the bed stretching her arms and legs.
''AH! I missed my bed.'' Hikari said as she buried her face in the pillow.
Haruka and Tomochika chuckled at me.
Hikari jumped up from her bed making them flinch, but she skipped towards the wardrobe, snatching some clothes and skipping towards the bathroom.
''I'm going to take a shower.'' Hikari said as she went in to the bathroom.
Fifteen minutes later, Hikar came out, ''Who's next?'' She asked as she went over to the mirror.
Hikari took the ribbon out from her hair making her red hair fall freely down to the end of her waist.
She then took a coat and wrapped it around her plain white t-shirt and black shorts.
''Where are you going?'' Haruka asked and Hikari turned around to see that she was heading towards the bathroom.
''I'm going for a night walk. I'll be right back, I promise.'' Hikari replied, smiling and went out of the door.
Hikari went to the little lake Haruka mentioned in one of her letters to her and grandma.
"The view is very pretty, just like Onee-Chan said. " Hikari mumbled and enjoyed the night breeze while sitting on the grass, her eyes directed towards the stars that shone brightly at the clear night sky.
"It really is." Hikari heard someone talk behind her and looked behind her to see... Syo.
