NOTE: PLEASE, IF SOMEONE THINKS OF A GOOD TITLE FOR THIS AS THIS FIC PROGRESSES, TELL ME!!!

*~Chapter 1~* "I can't believe you tripped over the camera wire, Ken-kun! Hahaha." Ken blushed and gave the host a small smile. "Gomen-ne..." "No, no, it's all right. That's what makes you so cute! Ne?" The audience screamed in response. Ken blushed again, making the screams become even louder. Yohji, Omi and Ran sighed as they sat next to Ken. "So, we hear that you'll be coming out again with your second album! Is it as good as the first album?" Yohji grinned, saying, "It's even better." "Oh, such confidence!" Yohji laughed, saying, "Well, I have to be confident. Practically half of the songs are Ken's." Ken blushed. "Is this true, Ken-kun?" Ken nodded. "Sugoi~! Minna-san, looks like you have even more to look forward to in their new album!" The crowd screamed again and Ken gave them a smile. More questions came their way and finally, the show was over. "Hm... looks like your clutziness isn't as bad to your reputation as I thought... some people actually _like_ you that way." Ken blushed and he stuck out his tongue at Crawford. "Beh~!" He turned and ran to hide behind Ran, who sighed. ~BRAD POV~ Kami-sama! He's so adorable, sitting there, blushing after he trips over the camera wire. He rubs his forehead and smiles at the host. What I would do to have him smile at me just once... Throughout the whole show, he blushes 37 times - I counted. Each time, I wanted to just run out there and hug him. And when he came off... after I made that remark, he stuck his tongue out at me...... I wanted to grab him and kiss him, shove him against the wall and make him moan my name... Don't lose control, Crawford... you're the best there is. Don't ruin your career - or his. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Ken did a back flip but instead of landing smoothly on the marked spot that his teammates had marked for him, he landed on Yohji. "ITE!" Ken stumbled up and helped Yohji stand. "Yotan! Gomen! I... I didn't mean to! I, you, the mark, when I, mistake, twist, uh, I-" "Shut up." Ken stared up at Crawford, who was looking at him coldly. Crawford picked Yohji up in his arms and dumped him onto Schuldich's lap. Ken stood there, staring as Crawford sat down and told Schuldich to "Guard Yohji from Ken." Ken bristled. "I didn't do it on purpose, you know! You don't need to be so mean about it!" Crawford ignored him and watched Omi and Ran practice their moves. Ken grumbled and sat down next to him. "Ne, Crawford?" "What." Ken winced at Crawford's cold voice. "Why do you hate me?" Crawford jumped slightly from surprise. Hate him? He looked down at Ken, who was looking back at him with round eyes. "I don't hate you." Ken's eyes suddenly narrowed. "You don't need to _lie_ to me, you know. I'm not _that_ stupid." Crawford blinked at him. Ken... thought that he _hated_ him?? Just then, Schuldich passed by with a smug smile on his face. "I told you so." Crawford glared at Schuldich's disappearing, maniacally laughing back before turning back to the brunette who was looking up at him expectantly. Ken sighed and turned away. "Forget it. I don't need an answer from you." Crawford grabbed him by the elbow and cleared his throat. Ken looked up at him in surprise. "Look, I don't _hate_ you, okay? Don't think too hard about it." Ken nodded before stumbling off to continue practicing. *He doesn't _hate_ me? Yea, he probably means that he dislikes me. Sigh...* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Ken let out a surprised shout when the reporters practically ran him down. He was shocked when pictures of him and a fellow singer were waved in front of his face. "Hidaka-kun, is it true that you are involved with him?" "Hidaka-kun, is it true that you two are lovers?" "Hidaka-kun, we've heard that you two have known each other for an extremely long time. Is this true?" He stumbled and was caught by the arm by Yohji. "Yotan, I-" "Explain later! Come on, we need to get to the car!" Yohji pretty much dragged Ken into the car and they found everyone in there, quietly waiting. Crawford showed him the entertainment section of the newspaper. On the front page was a picture of Ken and Farfarello hugging tightly and the headline read, "Famous popstars Ken Hidaka and Farfarello... Lovers?!" Ken stared at the picture. That was the night... He sighed. "He's just my best friend." "Which is why his hand is on your butt?" Ken stared at Ran before looking back down at the picture. "Eeeeeh?!" And just as Ran had said, Farfarello's hand was on his ass. He grabbed Crawford's cell phone and began dialing. Everyone put their fingers in their ears as Ken began to yell. "FARF, WHAT THE HELL, HOW'D THEY TAKE A PICTURE OF YOU AND ME HUGGING, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO, WHAT'S YOUR HAND DOING ON MY ASS YOU BAKA, WAIT TILL I SEE YOU NEXT, YOU SET THIS UP DIDN'T YOU, AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A BEST FRIEND, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT AND I CAN'T-" Crawford reclaimed his phone and put a hand over Ken's mouth. He quickly hung up on Farfarello and sighed. Ken shut up immediately and he glared at Crawford. Crawford glared right back at him and took his hand from Ken's mouth. "Look. We have to figure out a way out of this, okay? There's not point in yelling at Farfarello - he doesn't care about his career. Not much, anyways." Ken blinked. "How do you know that?" Crawford sighed. "I was his manager when I first started out. Anyways, how do we get rid of his rumor. Almost _no one_ is going to believe Ken when he tells them that it's not true." They sat silently as Schuldich drove the car. Ken sighed and stared at the floor. "I can't believe this happened to me! And Farf calls himself my best friend! Argh!" Omi replied, "I told you that he was a bad influence, didn't I, Ken- kun?" Ken gave Omi a pleading look. "Ooomiii! You're smart... don't you have any ideas?" Omi shrugged, smiling. "Everything'll be all right, Ken-kun." Ken grumbled when Crawford gave him a sharp look. "Okay, okay. I'll shut up and think." "Thank you."
