PxS Eight: Let The Drama Begin…

[10:00 AM]

Cleo walked up to Lianna's door, pawing at the decorative Chinese ornament that was hanging off the door handle. Reiji picked her up, holding the gray and white kitten in his arms. Cleo gave a tiny yawn only to have Reiji tap her gently on the nose. In response, Cleo began to nibble on his green jacket lapel.

"I'm not a vegetable," Frowned Reiji, pulling the lapel of his jacket away from Cleo's mouth.

"Meow!"

Reiji sighed. Oh. Dear. Cleo was acting like a disobedient child. He knocked on the door only to have Lianna give him the "What the hell do you want?!" expression, before allowing him to enter her dorm room. Reiji took a seat on a red oriental chaise lounge, before setting Cleo on a nearby hammock. Everything in Lianna's room gave off an oriental vibe, except for the gadgets of modern technology, which were laid out on her black ebony desk that was placed by the room window. Reiji noticed that Lianna's hair was slightly tousled, including the fact that the white nightgown that she was wearing had the embroidery of a golden Phoenix on the front. He quickly averted his eyes to the stack of books on a calligraphy table. A shade of crimson dusted his cheeks. After all, the nightgown was slightly transparent. Midnight blue was currently the color for Lianna's brassiere and panty. She stood by the kitchen counter pouring out a cup of tea for Reiji.

"I should scold you for interrupting my slumber," Lianna handed the porcelain cup to Reiji, before sitting on the edge of her four post oriental bed, "But…- seeing that Cleo came with you, I'll let my anger pass this time."

"Li-Li, you're treating me like a child," Pouted Reiji, placing the cup upon a coffee table.

Lianna chuckled, "You act like a child. It makes sense that I treat you like one."

"That's not fair!" Whined Reiji, "We both know that I'm older than you!"

Lianna smirked, "Then shall I treat you like an adult?"

"Eh…- what are…-"

Oh. Boy. Reiji gasped in surprise the instant that Lianna had him on his back, straddling him around his hips. He gulped. There was a dark twinkle of amusement expressed in those ebony eyes of hers. Dark. Dominating. Sinfully. Delicious. Lianna devilishly smirked, already knowing that Reiji was unsure of what to do with his hands. He was completely frozen like an art statue. Cleo was already asleep in the hammock. Damn. Nick instantly entered the room, seeing the two in a very compromising position. So. Awkward. Reiji exited the room the instant Lianna got off the chaise lounge.

"Lia…- Dear. God," Nick sighed, "Go back to bed."

"But I'm not sleepy anymore," Lianna pouted.

Nick rolled his eyes, "Yeah right. We both know that you're not fully awake."

Ian, Masato, Ren, and Tomochika were in the main kitchen. The four were going over tonight's dinner plans. So far on the list was to prepare the veggies for the chicken soup, slice the bread, and have ice ready for the carbonated drinks. Ian was the only one who offered to slice the bread, and wash the kitchenware afterwards everyone was done preparing the dinner. Everyone else was busy at the moment.

"I can help out but I'm not that good of a cook or a baker in the kitchen," Ian said while placing slices of the bread upon a toaster tray for Masato to place in the oven.

Tomochika smiled, "You're skills in the kitchen can't be that bad. I'm sure that you can prepare a nice hearty meal."

"It's not skills in the kitchen for me," Ian shook his head, "Bad luck is always around the corner when I try to work a kitchen appliance."

Ren raised an eyebrow, "Lia did mention about your bad relationships with kitchen appliances."

"She also did mention that you broke her toaster in her apartment a couple months ago," Added Masato.

Ian sighed, "Well…- that was when I was toasting a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Only I ended up setting her kitchen on fire."

Oh. Dear. Major sweat drops from Masato, Ren, and Tomochika.

Reiji sighed. Unbelievable. Lianna was no longer acting as the tiger toying with its prey. She was now cheerfully munching on a piece of strawberry shortcake, while seated on a sofa across from Nick and Reiji. The three were in Toshi café, which was located somewhere nearby Yoyogi Park. Nick smiled once the waiter bought his order to their table. A sweet chocolate latte plus one matcha cake. Delicious, but both very expensive. Reiji took a sip of his peppermint latte. He savored the sweet taste. Nick gave a friendly wave to a young female and male, the two had just entered the café. They waved back before taking seats in one of the corner booths.

"Friends of yours?" Asked Reiji.

Nick smiled, "Yes. They joined Tokyo CRIMSONxRUBY a few months ago. Our president was impressed by their composing skills."

"It's lovely to see a young couple," Reiji sighed.

Lianna slightly chuckled, "You better hold onto that thought. Those two aren't in an intimate relationship. It's the opposite my dear Rei-chan."

"Ah…- I see what you mean," Reiji sweat dropped.

Nick smirked, "The siblings as a loving couple? Gross…- too far into the land of incest."

"It's goood to see yooou four!" Exclaimed Saotome once Ranmaru, Reiji, Ren, and Tokiya had entered his office, "Take a seat on the sofa and help yourselves to the refreshments on the table. I have business to discuss with you all!"

Tokiya sighed, "What sort of business?"

Saotome stepped off his desk. He quickly handed each member a black folder, before taking a seat in his black recliner, which was positioned behind his desk. Ren flipped opened his own black folder, eyes twinkling in amusement towards what was highlighted on one of the pages. Tokiya sighed once more. Dramas. Casting. Characters waiting to be filled in and acted out onscreen.

Saotome smirked, "Congrats…- you've all passed yesterdays audition at MX channel. The judges were quite impressed by the acting skills each of you had displayed. This is a joyous occasion to have two members from STARISH and QUARTET NIGHT act together in the same drama. Ms. Li will be glad to know that she's acting alongside familiar colleagues."

"What does Lia have to do with this?" Ranmaru questioned.

"Mr. Kurosaki, didn't you read the first page?" Saotome smirked, "She's filling in the main role of this summer drama."

"I thought you were joking about landing a role in one of MX channel's upcoming dramas," Ian was resting comfortably in Lianna's hammock, flipping through the pages of her black folder, "But I'm glad that you're not acting as the antagonist for another horror movie this time around. I still get the chills whenever I watch the victims being axed by you in 'Bloody Maiden: Quest for Eternal Youth'. Seriously I do get nightmares sometimes."

Lianna chuckled, "Chills and thrills. In that movie there was no romance, only the feasting upon innocent victims."

"At least this upcoming drama has romance," Ian eyed one of the highlighted pages in the black folder, "Interesting. The scriptwriter even tossed in the gender bender concept and the typical boy meets girl."

"Correction," Lianna gave a roll of her eyes, "Its four males and one lady."

Ian smirked, "I see what you mean. 'Love by Four', the title is quite alluring."

"Rin-chan said the same thing," Lianna sighed, "She even told me that whatever happens onscreen may create a fated romance behind – the – scenes."

Ian chuckled, "Sounds cliché. You know that we're not into the cheesy kind of romance."

"I know that," Lianna smirked, "We're the type of individuals who love to live in sin."
