Chapter Six
Starlight Love: Otome Game
Story Two: Sesshoumaru's Story
I finished the weekend getaway at the cabin mostly in my room and mostly enjoying the hot spring. I had a lot on my mind then and I still haven't gotten it figured out, but I'm glad I could relax some. It calmed my nerves being able to soak and relax a bit, especially with my busy week coming up.
This week I was going to do the photoshoot for my single jackets, one being with Sesshoumaru. It was also told in the limited edition version of my single there would be a special interview about me that would also give out my profile to the fans so they could know more about me. Then after my photoshoot I also have my first live event. I'm going to be singing my song 'I WISH' and opening for GyaruCODE. It would be my first time actually working with them besides Kagura-san so I was excited to meet more of my senpai.
There was a lot of practicing and a lot of work to do until then. Very soon, my debut single would be released, and I have a release event to do. I'm so excited for it. I was told it would be a private party with different companies meeting in some fancy hotel ballroom after a live event that I would be the headline for.
After that talk with Sesshoumaru, I couldn't look at him the same. I wanted him as a friend, a close friend, but from what he explained, that was not going to be possible ever. We didn't really get to finish our conversation before he kicked me out of his room. but he told me he was in love with me when we were kids. I didn't really understand it. I was young when he moved away and I guess back then I didn't realize that. But he is just over four years older than I am. He was more mature back then, so of course I wouldn't have realized.
The Staff-san had me wearing the same dress as the one I wore for my promotional video for my solo photoshoot, the beautiful white dress, but for the photo shoot with Sesshoumaru, I had to wear something different. They gave me a somewhat different outfit than I am use to. I felt more self conscious than anything in it, but the staff-san that put the finishing touches on my hair told me I looked wonderful and not to worry about it. I was given a light blue bandeau to wear, it was simple with ruffles on it, but it showed nearly all of my stomach. Over that I was given a leather jacket with silver zippers and black fingerless gloves. I was given a pair black skinny jeans with patterns of grey and white on it. To finish it off they gave me some black pumps to wear. They were a little taller than I was use to, but I made it work.
I nervously walked onto the photoshoot set and Sesshoumaru was already there. He had jeans that matched mine, he had on a white button up shirt that was untucked and he had on a black tie that hung loose. His sleeves were rolled up and he had on fingerless gloves like mine.
I met his eyes for a moment but then quickly looked away from him. I wasn't prepared for what he had said to me at the cabin. I didn't know what to make of it. He never looked at me as a friend but I have thought of him as a friend for so long The cameraman told us it was time and instructed us on the vision for the cover. I was a little nervous to be so close to him again but it couldn't be helped. After only thirty minutes the photoshoot was finished and I was headed back to my green room. I wanted to speak with him and try to fix things, but in the end I knew it was of no use.
I sat in the green room with a sheet of paper with questions on it. I went through and answered each of them. They were basic questions like my height, age, birthday, blood type, and hometown. I enjoyed answering these questions and I'm happy that there are people out there that would actually care enough to want to know about things like this.
I went home that night and practiced and practiced for my first live event. I was nervous but also excited for it. I was working hard in order to pay off my parent's debt. I just hoped I could succeed as much as I needed to.
When I was in the middle of practice there was a knock on my door and I went to it. I slowly opened it and Sesshoumaru was on the otherside.
"Oh…" I couldn't manage to say anything else when I saw him. It was rude of me, but I couldn't help it. When I saw him I felt my body get tense and I could hear my heart beating so loud in my ears. I looked down and he had a pizza with him. He didn't say anything to me, he just walked past me with the pizza and into the living room. he sat down and turned on the TV. I walked over to him and stared at him puzzled. He turned the channel to a movie and told me to sit. So I did. He handed me a slice of pizza and we sat together and watched a movie. It was about a woman who had woken up and didn't know who she was or her family. It was a sad movie but I enjoyed watching it and eating with Sesshoumaru.
After the movie was over and the pizza was gone Sesshoumaru turned the TV off and turned to speak with me. He broke the silence first.
"Kagome, about what I was saying to you before…" I could feel myself getting nervous again. I wasn't sure If I was ready to hear what he had to say. I wanted to do something. But I didn't know what…
