Narcissist or Narcissism

Example of usage: Stop staring at your reflection, you are oozing narcissism and that's disgusting.

Note: Narcissistic people are not self-centered there is a difference.

People says that the world is unfair and he, Kise Ryota can fully relate why does this saying exists. A part of the humanity was born and destined to be an alpha, admirable. Another part was to become a beta, nobody really cares about them. Lastly, the omega where the society had given up on them.

Walking down the streets, he feels the eyes. Yes, no matter where he grace his presence, all eyes will follow where he ends until he kisses them goodbye, releasing them from his magic.

He knows and he was fully aware of his magnificent features and it was an undeniable fact that he is being categorized as an alpha, admirable, strong, and beautiful. With a flip of his yellow locks, people squeals. With a wink from his eyes, people kneels. With a curve from his perfect mouth, people clenches their hearts.

Yes, he is that irresistible. He loves himself too much and his fans love him too. His fans love him so much to the point that they will follow him no matter where goes, be it just taking a stroll at the park or to his photo shooting set.

You have not seen or heard it wrong. His fans follows him to his shooting set. Why? Because he is a model. A top model if he was being modest. He poses, he poses and poses and no matter what the camera had captured, it will become the cover splash.

And of course, aside from modeling, he is into acting too. Not only does the god of modelling loves him, but the same goes to the god of acting. He acts and acts, no matter if he is given the role of a protag or an evil villain, he could care less, he will just simply smother his fans into nothingness through the screen.

What comes after modeling and acting, you say… With such a big name like him, producers from variety shows, reality shows or even talk shows had come finding him, all for the sake of getting him to buff up their ratings.

And there is one time when he was in a variety show in which there were interview segments and once the emcee asked him about the tips behind his realistic acting when comes to the romantic parts, he replied that he viewed those actresses as his fans, in which he loves.

Just because of this answer of his, his gains massive popularity overnight as if his popularity wasn't enough already. His presence had kicked god knows how much of his opponents like they weren't worth a penny. He had the whole world in his grasp. ''Ahahaha!''

Oh…! How he loves them, his puny little lost lamb of a fan that had lost their way through his enchantment. With just a single flick of his fingers, they will swoon and falls into his embrace, no matter how tough they were.

He loves them and they loves him back, fair play. Even so, no matter how much he loves them, it will never compete with the love he have for himself. ''Muahahahaha!''

He understands his fans and he absolutely aware of their love for him, but if it was those that comes with excessive love, he will personally lecture them by giving them a total cold stare and usually it works.

Everyone had their own rules. For him, you can follow, but you don't stalk. You can give him a handshake, but never excessive skin-ship. You can play whisper, but you are not allowed to dig any further.

Usually a cold stare is sufficient enough to let them chill, but that's one time where few of his fans had his apartment in their map and speaking of excessive love, holy shit how horrendous they were, they start from wanting his autograph, but things got crazy next.

They start from wanting his freaking autograph and when he is doing his fanservice… Do not bother speaking about a bunch of hungry wolves, the touching starts. He is well aware of them feeling him up and as usual, he uses his signature cold stare.

To his surprise, it was not effective, not at all and he senses himself being pushed back to the wall and that's where the real horror commence. The hands, no it was not hands at all but a bunch of rotten claws, reaching out to skin him alive.

He is going to get raped for sure if this goes on and he absolutely won't allowed it to happen. Heck no! Dropping the autograph and the pen given to him, he tries to talk logic and chill to them. He hoped his soothing voice would do the magic, instead things gets worse.

The situation gets worse to the point of he is feeling airy down there, down to where the wind manages to feel up his briefs. Yeah… things had completely turn viciously dreadful. He runs and he falls flat to the ground.

He will always be ready to kiss any actress in an act, but to think that he, Kise Ryota is kissing the ground right now was enough to make him cry out of regret, but that could wait of course, he has better things to do right now. Priorities people, priorities.

Upon putting himself up from the ground, he was all ready to run to the nearest police station to sue these pervert hooligans, but he had almost once again, almost hit his face to the ground and that's where he notices they are pulling his falling jeans.

Aaaaaaaah! Oh, Hades! Oh, Poseidon! Oh, Zues! Don't make me choose! He is paralyzed by the fact that he needs to make a choice that had the same level of life or death. Image or life? Image or life? Image or life? It repeats and repeats like a broken record.

They are going to kill me, so life. I am a huge superstar, so image! Killed, no more superstar deal, so life. Running while abandoning his prized jeans and become almost naked, so image! Believe me, he only uses less than one second to regulate all this in his mind.

Yay! We have a Guinness World Record here! Now let's give him a prize he deserv- Screw that! He wanted to live, he wants to see the beautiful tomorrow and staying in the stomachs of those mongrels was the last thing he wanted to do.

*Random Mexican music starts to play in the background…*

He pulls and pulls and the more he pulls, his jeans slips down the more and in the process, he feels he had lost a shoe and once he steadied himself, he gives his all to make his dash. Be free, youngster, Waha!

He runs and runs, down to the fleet of stairs, to the parking lot, through the security guard, who starts to report that a resident pervert had been spotted, running with nothing but only briefs. See people, that's why he struggles with his choices, image matters.

He runs, down to the street. All he had wanted is to make a report about his recent abuse. He recalls bypassing a pair of mother and daughter and he shot them a smile, the mother screams covering her daughter's eyes, who screams too.

Before the poor him could make any distance, he received a leek in the head, thrown by the mother and there's where he starts sobbing internally. He is hurt, deeply and madly.

What's going on…? I am Kise Ryota, see, look at my signature smile… Instead he got more things thrown at him. Accompanying the fanfare of raw ingredients was no less of screeching yells and deafening wails.

Before he could get to the police station, the police had gone coming to hunt him down. Ahahaha! This is a dream! This is definitely a dream! Or a virtual reality game, so real that my legs are feeling the weight… Ahahahaha!

And he stops running away from the cops and just when he is about to turn around to explain, the momentum of the cops came knocking him onto the ground and that wasn't the end, he had been cuffed and without even had a chance to make a reason, he was sent to the temporary jail, until…

*Random Mexican music stops with a clack coming from the jail*

Excluding those with excessive passion, he definitely loves his fans because he knows they love him too, but he learnt it in the hard way that was not the case and here he is, back to his agency, facing his president.

Grabbing him out from the jail wasn't easy, said his president. It had took him a lot of convincing and reasoning to bail him out and just when everything begins to return to sunshine and sunflowers, a huge problem rises and that problem is sitting right in-front of him. A newspaper.

Like a retarded person, he stares at the newspaper. If a mere stacks of printed papers could hurt him, this particular newspaper is doing everything right, from head to toe. First, it hurts his image. Second, it hurts his dignity. Third, it hurts his pride. Lastly, it hurts his reputation.

A mere newspaper was not supposed to feel this sinister, but why it seems to him that every single creaks and cracks made by the newspaper feels like it was shooting bullets at his direction. *Creak… (Bam!)* Ouch, it hurts… *Crack… (Bang!)* Ow!

''So, Kise-kun. May I expect an acceptable reason regardless this matter…?'' (BANG! BOOM!)

''Aaaaah! It freaking hurts!'' He raises his head while his shrieks pulls his head back and in-front of him, his president looks like he wants to immediately choke a gun right down his esophagus.

Talking about being awkward, he looks up and down, back and forth between the newspaper and his president to decide which side is more scary and gory while curling up like a ball in the cushion seat.

''Should I repeat my words, Kise-kun…?''

Things that are alive can kill right? Screw the newspaper! ''If you… see fit to it, then why not, heh heh!''

''Do not 'heh heh' me. Right now, give me a thorough explanation.''

He swallows and before he could make a believable reasoning, the door crashes and in came someone with the same newspaper. Newspaper sure is a deadly weapon, before he could see who enters, the person had used it to smack him in the head. ''OW!''

Covering his head, with crocodile tears he swings his head and… ''What was that for? It wasn't even my fault, I am the victim here! Sister!''

''I don't care. Right now, tell me this instance as to what freaking happened that you that have led you been captured by camera while you are running crazy half-naked.''

''I am going to do the explanation until you crushes in like a mad man.''

''What did you just say?'' She cracks her knuckles and immediately he apologize. ''Go on with your explanation then…''

''The story goes like this…'' And he starts to give his reason from the causes to the effects and of course, he dramatize it a little. Well… who would like a plain old story with no drama twist in it?

He sighs and turns solemn after he ends his story. Just thinking about it makes him feel like a protagonist that straight up comes from a tragedy. I am a superstar who loves his fans, like you could find anywhere. But… if, for argument's sake, you were to create a drama with me as the protagonist, it would certainly be… a tragedy. Ah… he sounded so cool right there.

''Since your apartment had been found out, you might as well moved to a new place to live until all of these had died down. We will cover it and about your new residence, I will call up some guys to renovate it, so I think you can live with your sister here temporarily.''

''Oh…! My president, I love you so much!''

But it seems that his president could not care him that much anymore, because the president had turned to his sister. ''Kise-san, have you brought him here for further discussion?''

''Yes, he is actually waiting outside.'' Replies his sister and just when his sister is going to fetch the guest outside, he follows her, all just wanting to leave the room as there was no more business for him in there.

Once his sister had open the door, at one of the waiting seat, he sees a guy. After his sister had gave her call, the guy stands and turns and then only he sees the face of the guy.

No matter how narcissist he was sometimes, he couldn't deny the fact that this particular guy is good looking in his way. The way his black hair covers his left eye and under his right eye, a beauty mark could be seen.

It seems that the guy had caught him staring at him, with their eyes locked, the guy smiles politely and without saying anything, he bypass him and before the door had shut behind him, he catches something. ''Here you are, Himuro Tatsuya-san, please take a seat…''

Himuro Tatsuya, he seriously have no opinions towards this guy at first. Be it negative or positive, to him Himuro Tatsuya was a decent guy with politeness and no hard feelings had come to him when it comes to him, but…

He had moved into his new house and he found out that he had a neighbor. A neighbor that does not care about him no matter what he says and he have tons of things to say about it, but that could be place aside for now.

He does not know whether if it was the feng shui of the house or maybe it was Himuro Tatsuya after all that had causes a black history in his poor life, the things starts this way…

At first, he finds out that this Himuro guy meeting up with the president was only because the uprising bakery he is working at had recommend the president to use him to be the one to help them advertise their bakery.

The reason is because they does not wish to have other people be the face of the shop. If you wanted to help them do an advertisement, use their staff instead and this Himuro guy that had worked there had been selected immediately because of his universally, good looks.

It was just a one-time thing. An once-in-a-lifetime special opportunity for him to have a taste of what the modeling, filming life looks like. It never really bothers him, because once this is over, this Himuro guy would just go back being a normal worker, with a little fame.

This is what he had thought first, but before he knew it, he regrets for having zero guards for this Himuro Tatsuya.

''Cut! NG! NG! Kise Ryota-kun, please be more affectionate towards Alexander-san here. You have always done this, right? Just do what you usually do!''

He is filming for some sort of advertisement for a luxury brand of jewelries and he is now supposed to act like he is in love. While helping Alexander here wear the necklace, he is supposed to show like he had wanted to kiss her, no less.

It was easy, but why couldn't he do it… What is wrong with me…? And the camera had begun rolling again with the slate being hit.

On a luxury ship, they dance and when it was over he takes out the necklace and Alexander here will looked like she is surprised and he will help her wear it while their mouths are on the verge of connecting… Autographs. Autographs. Autographs.

He will always do the first part flawlessly, but why when Alexander had come close to him, her face would suddenly turned into a bunch of rotten claws, trying to get his autographs and skinning him in the process?

''Cut!'' And they separates and just when Kise is about to go apologizing, he sees the director speaking to his president, who surprisingly had come to overlook his film making because this advertisement is a big deal.

He does not know what had exchange between both of them, but he had a bad feeling about this when he sees his president talking through his phone and while he is doing so… the director announces a break.

While all of the staff is taking their breaks, the president and director had seems to make their leave from the set and after a few minutes, he sees Himuro Tatsuya in between both of them.

They bypass him, just like that as if he was not there and just that moment, he hears something from Himuro… ''I am sorry, but I have no experience in dancing.''

''Rest assured, Alexander-san here will lead you later and if you really couldn't, we will change the story, but the most important part is the final part, are you okay with that?'' said the director.

And as if Himuro is being hesitant and so his president… ''Just relax and do like you had previously done with the advertisement of the bakery.''

And he sees a nod from Himuro and the president smile… ''Good. Now, go and follow our coordinator here to get yourselves change.'' And there goes Himuro with the coordinator.

The president turns around to proceed to where he was and… ''Kise, is just like what you have perceived. We decided to give him a try, if he could not do it, then you may rest assured.''

A couple of minutes later of styling and fitting, he sees a princely Himuro walking out and he could hear all the girl staff, swooning at him. ''Ah, just look at him.'' ''What was his name again?'' ''Hey, he might be the next.'' ''Oh, who knows…?''

Before they start to shoot, Himuro, Alexander and the director had gone aside to go over what he should do and what kind of role he will be playing. He is so engrossed by the scene that he almost jumped from shock when he notices a big guy sitting beside him, whose eyes were on Himuro too.

And it seems that Himuro had notice the big guy too, he waves and the big guy waves back, after stopping his snack eating, he… ''Muro-chin, gambateh…!''

Far away, he sees Himuro smiles back and then the film making starts and just when he is hundred percent sure he will be getting the main role back, it was the time where he knows how wrong he was.

The reaction, the applause, the admiring stares that had come from the whole set after a few cuts was out of his expectation. Just how did this Himuro Tatsuya do all of that. Even though he had made a few mistakes on the dancing, but he quickly corrects it. And what was that alluring look he made when they reach the final part…!

This is the first time in his life that he tasted fear, a fear that he might get replaced. His fear definitely wasn't unnecessary, because after the advertisement had gone out, the effects that comes later was so vocal.

The video that had been posted on the official channel of that jewelries company had then receive views non-stop and the comments asking for the male lead totally drowned the comment section. The question does not ends there, the video spreads like Nutella across the internet and almost immediately, the whole internet starts to go crazy about him.

He had also saw cutouts of him being placed in-front of the jewelries branch while he is visiting that store. After all of this had happened, his agency had always receive calls asking for Himuro. From a star-struck fans to companies wanting his contract.

And it seems that his president had truly taken a liking to Himuro Tatsuya and thus with much convincing, discussing and negotiation, Himuro had officially quit his normal life to join the entertainment industry and that was the first call of his downfall.

Do you think he will just let a newcomer to step on him? No way! Definitely not! Although he was not vocal on that matter, but deep down he challenges him, he wants to kick him out like he did with those fodder model.

Case No. 1: Winking and smiles like a sunshine is corny.

Both of them had attended a talk show and after he had finished talking about his life story, he pulls out his signature winks and smiles. ''Because of you all, Kise Ryota had existed.'' The fans swoon and squeals and he turns towards Himuro and internally… Heh heh, try and beat it!

Himuro certainly was a force to be reckon with, because as he talks about his life story, being an orphan and his whole life growing up there, he could hear sniffing sound from the audience and after he had finish his story, he ends it with… ''I sincerely thank you all for the opportunity, because of you all I was able to contribute a little more for my orphanage.''

And see what he got, the audiences break into tears and he notices that Himuro was shocked by the reaction too. If he had just scrape the skin of his fans, this guy right here had just twisted their heart way too much.

Effect for this case: Himuro's gotten himself a main role in a melodrama.

Case No. 2: Taking care of children wasn't easy.

Once again, they ended up being a guest in a reality show. The reality show is all about helping the busy parents to take care of their child just for one day with the camera constantly following them around.

Why? What did I do wrong…? He does not know what had occurred because the child he is in-charge with is crying non-stop and it was embarrassing him that he wished the camera would have stop rolling. Being desperate, he could just smile and… ''It was my first time taking care of younger ones as I am the youngest at home, heh!''

After making such lame excuse, he turns towards Himuro side and he almost wants to pick up a sunglasses. So-so vibrant! Himuro is just oozing brightness, because he is taking care of his child to the point that the child is shining in his eyes. Humble as always, Himuro turns to the camera… ''I kind of have some experience when taking care of my other brothers in the orphanage.''

Effect for this case: Himuro earned himself the title of No.1 Boyfriend and Brother Material and Kise earned himself the title of Ditzy Younger Brother.

He could feel his fame slipping every second and it's not like he wanted to do it, but what's done had been done. He hurts Himuro when they were in a photoshoot together. It's because he couldn't bear it any longer after seeing his assistants helping that Himuro.

And here he is again, all waiting for his president to give him a big ass scolding before letting him off the hook, but nothing came, instead a deep sigh and following it… ''Kise, you are aware of the angry calls from the fans right?''

He stays silence for his president. ''I have no more fingers to count just how many times I have helped you to cover up, and I will have to say it's better for you to take a hiatus and continue to focus on your college.''

He widen his eyes… ''But, what about my fans that are waiting for me out there…?''

His president quickly shot back… ''You don't have to worry about that since I believed that Himuro would do all the work you are about to leave and do you seriously think that you will have fans left after this incident?''

He stands up to protest, but he was rendered silence by his president's words. ''This time, I will let them know it was the stress eating you up and you will be a good boy, returning to college to focus on your study while destressing yourselves. I will take no objection.''

And that's it, that had complete his downfall and no matter how much he didn't want it, he knows he needs to abide.

And thus, after two weeks, while he is on his way to his college, he sees his poster being change to Himuro's and far on top of a building, he sees a massive billboard with Himuro splash. It was then he realized, he had been replaced and now the person in the billboard is the alpha and he had dropped to become an unnecessary beta.

With his poster flying through him, he feels regret that no matter how long he dwells onto, it won't change a thing. Leaving the spot he had been standing, he heads towards his college.

Reply to the Reviewers:

To FunnyDS1: Ah, I am sorry for all the grammatical errors and if I can manage I will try my best to raise the quality of my writing.

A/N: Oh shit! Now my brain is starting to ship Kise and Himuro…

And, the next would be Murasakibara Atsushi, so please do be patient because I am not abandoning this story.

Well… impossible ships might happen and that's it.

Welp, SINGING OUT…!
