So in between my q1s and q shifts as well as those retched I&Os that was being ordered I present to you this chapter

Declaimer: I don't own anything

A few days had past since the two had met and now both are busy with their lives.

Natsuki sat on a stool as her slender fingers stroke each key in a flawless rhythm. Her eyes close in concentration. Any one that would hear her music would stop, close their eyes and listen. It is indeed a wonderful melody. Natsuki sighed once she had finish stroking the last key.

She opened her eyes as a clap resonated within the halls.

"That's wonderful!"

Natsuki nodded to the person in front of her. This person is the person responsible for anything that requires promoting her music in short her manager. Natsuki stood up the stool and gently close the piano.

"So?" the person asks.

Natsuki raised her eyebrow in a questioning manner before asking

"So? What do you mean so Chie?"

Chie smirked as she waved one of her fingers back and forth.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!" she began "You should know better than to hide things from me Natsuki."

Natsuki stared at her passively and shrugged, she picked up her jacket and walked pass her manager but stopped once she had passed Chie.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

And with that she walked out of the hall leaving an amused Chie behind.

Fujino Shizuru was not in a good mood, her vice-president had decided to once again hold a meeting and here she was sitting in the presidents' chair listening to her vice ramble on and on. She sipped on her tea and continued to play the role of a calm, collected and wise president.

"President!"

A loud voice roared the whole meeting room and all eyes that was once almost closed snapped open to watch the two most powerful women in the whole company.

"Ara, something wrong Suzushiro-san?"

A hand slam on the table surface causing some of the refreshment to spill.

"I was asking for you approval"

Shizuru nodded deciding that she really doesn't care about what would happen next and with that the meeting is adjourned.

She walked through the corridors of her building smiling and acknowledging the employees that had greeted her. She then reached the end of the top floor and was greeted with a white painted door and twisted the handle.

The site of her room is quiet exquisite a huge window is present that over views the whole city, different paintings are hanging in the walls and a nigatana was present standing tall on the weapon rack.

Shizuru walked towards the window and looked outside.

"I wish I had asked for her number"

And her cell phone suddenly rang flashing a unknown number.

Harada Chie was not only known for her talent to recognize talent but also she is known for her ability to acquire any information she wants and now she is a woman on a mission - the mission? Find the reason why her aloof pianist was a lot more passionate than usual.

So here she was standing in front of the Fujino corporation building dressed in a suit, looking like a business woman that she really was. She adjusted her collar and pushed the door of the building when…BAM!

Chie had bumped into someone or someone bumped into her she doesn't know. She heard the continuous apologies of the person and raised her head only to meet a beautiful pair of crystal blue eyes.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Really I am!" said the person as she continuous to bow in apology

"Ah…" Chie was lost - she doesn't know how to react so she just did what she normally does…flirt.

"It's alright, I don't mind getting hit as long as it is a lovely lady" Chie said accompanied with a prince like charming smile.

The person stopped apologizing and stood straight looking at her in the eye.

"Your…" the person started "not working here."

Chie scratched her head sheepishly and replied.

"I actually came here for Fujino-san"

The person raised one of her eye brows and asked

"Do you have an appointment?"

She was just told to meet and bring a guest of their company's president to her and was running out to meet the person in time. It really is a wonder, everyone in the company knows that getting an appointment with her president is rare after all when someone has a work-o-holic vice president what can one do but just sits back and relax.

"Yes I do"

"Your name please?" the person asked in a business like voice

"Chie Harada"

The person nodded and gestured her to follow. Which Chie obliged, they enter the elevator and silently waited for the top floor to be reached.

"So…" Chie began as the lift ascended.

The person turned to face her causing her step back a little.

"She really has this strict aura but…" Chie thought

"…I didn't get your name." Chie finished.

DING!

The sound was heard signaling its occupants that they had reached their desired floor. The person walked out of the elevator and reached the presidents office. Once there she knocked three times and waited.

"Come in." A soft Kyoto-ben answered.

The person opened the door and said "Your guest Harada-san is here, president"

"Ara, let her in"

The person nodded and signal her to enter just as Chie was about to enter a quiet but soft voice said

"Senoh, Aoi"

And with that the door close leaving Chie surprised, she shook her head to get it out of her system for now she had to focus and confront what seems to be Natsukis' current inspiration.

"Hello there Fujino-san"

A few days had passed since she went to the Fujino building and was now currently listening to her charges play.

Her cell phone vibrated signifying a message had been received. She flipped it open and read its contents before walking towards the pianist.

Natsuki noticed Chie and stopped playing.

"What is it?" Natsuki asked

Chie smirked and motioned her to follow. Natsuki shrugged and complied. They walked thru the corridors of the hall and stopped at one of its comference rooms.

Chie opened the door and let Natsuki enter first. One there Natsuki met the familiar crimson eyes that had been in her mind for that passed few days.

"Natsuki" Chie began " I want you to meet Fujino Shizuru our new sponsor."

Shizuru smiled and bowed.

"It'll be my pleasure to support Natsuki"
