Chapter 1
"Alright, I think that's enough practice for today" the Star Light's manager said at their rehearsal.
"I think we're ready for the concert tonight." Seiya spoke as he took off his guitar strap.
"I agree. We've been practicing really well this week. We'll do just fine." Yaten answered the raven head as he turned off the keyboard.
Taiki took his guitar off and he went to the other two.
"I'm heading for the library today. I'll see you guys tonight ok?"
"Library? Why the heck would you want to spend your time there?" Yaten said raising his eyebrow.
"Man, you're the only person I know who would waste their time on books." Seiya said shaking his head in disappointment.
"Yeah, other then Ami, that is." The short silver haired Starlight added.
Then Yaten and Seiya darted their eyes at each other smiling evilly. They then turned to Taiki who noticed this and blushed.
"I get it, so you're only going cause of Amy?" Yaten teased, giving the taller pop star a sly expression.
"No... It's just that I always liked books and today is a rainy day. I always like to spend my rainy days in the library. Well got to go. See ya."
With that Taiki ran right out the studio heading to the library.
"Sure... what ever" Seiya said shaking his head again with disappointment.
Seeing his older brother acting like that made him feel dishonorable.
"We should have told him he was a bad liar." Yaten said as they looked at were Taiki was running.
"Yeah I know." Seiya answered as they started to walk out of the studio.
"Well, where are you planning to go?" Yaten asked his companion Seiya.
"I don't know. I'm not very sure." Seiya looked ahead.
The rain was hard but not enough to flood the town. He saw some people walking around with their umbrellas and their jackets on. He then saw two blond odangos pass by. He looked closer and saw Usagi with Makoto and Rei.
"Odango, hey, what's up?" He yelled to them.
Usagi and the others turned to see the two stars near the studio entrance.
"Hey Seiya" Usagi answered back with a warm smile.
"Yo, see you later ok." Seiya quickly whispered to Yaten as he ran after Usagi and the two other girls.
Yaten saw them walk away leaving him in the rain with an umbrella. He sighed and went the other way. He reached the park and sat down on the bench. Yaten moved the umbrella away from his face as he let the rain land on his skin. He liked the feeling of the rain.
After he felt a bit cold he put the umbrella over him again. Getting up to go to his apartment he heard a car honking.
"What the?" he asked lightly to no one in particular.
He turned around and saw Minako, Artemis in her hands sleeping, in the middle of the road. A truck was heading straight for her. Without another word he dashed towards Minako and pushed her out of the way. The next minute they were on the park's grass with Yaten on top of the bland and the white guardian cat.
Minako looked at Yaten a bit stunned.
"Yaten" She managed to say.
A blush crept over her cheeks when she realized how close he was to her.
"Are you alright?" He asked while getting off of the scout.
"Yeah... I'm ok."
"What the hell were you thinking? Why were you in the middle of the road?" Yaten yelled after recovering from stimulation.
Minako looked down at the ground.
"Well... Artemis and I were just coming from the Crown Arcade. We didn't have an umbrella so we ran towards my apartment. As we crossed the street Artemis fainted. When I picked him up the truck was coming and I was glued to the ground. But then you came. Thanks." Minako looked up at him, giving her warm winning smiled with gratitude.
Yaten forgot all about his anger as he felt like melting when receiving her smile.
Sighing he spoke, "We better get shelter before the rain gets worst. It's getting cold. Come on."
Yaten helped her up and handed her his umbrella that he had dropped when running towards her.
"Here."
He took off his jacket and wrapped it around Artemis. They soon headed to Minako's apartment.
"What's the matter with him anyway?" Yaten asked when they reached her place.
"I don't know. He just fainted on me."
Minako placed Artemis on a pillow on the couch. Yaten looked closely at him.
"Hum... I think he has a cold. He feels really warm." Yaten told Minako as he felt Artemis's forehead.
"You're right. I better get him to a doctor. Hold on will you?"
After feeling Artemis's forehead she went and got the phone. She called her vet, Dr. Ruko, and told him what had happened.
"I have to take Artemis to the doctor." Minako said as she got off the phone.
Yaten was placing a warm wet towel on Artemis's forehead.
"Now?" He asked as he looked up.
"Yeah."
She took Artemis in her arms.
"Do you want to come?" She asked him.
Yaten looked at the clock on the wall. It was 5:25.
"Na, I have to go. We're having a concert tonight."
"Oh yeah... I remember. I'll try my best to be there ok."
"K." Yaten answered as he opened the door for both of them.
"Well... thanks for everything Yaten. See you later." Minako ran down her apartment hall as she reached the elevator.
Giving a wave for goodbye she disappeared to Yaten's sight when the two doors closed.
"Yeah, see ya." The silver haired boy said to no one in particular.
Taking a deep sigh he headed back to the studio.
"Wow, you're socking wet. What happened? Did you fall in a puddle?" Seiya asked sarcastically when he saw Yaten enter the studio.
Yaten got pissed at the question.
"Ha, ha, ha Seiya. Very funny. In fact, it was so funny I forgot to laugh." Yaten spat as he headed to his dressing room.
Seiya and Taiki were already dressed up. They looked at each other with questioning faces. After awhile they shrugged and went back to preparing the stage for their performance.
Yaten looked at the mirror. He was wearing his usual light blue suite.
'Well. here we go again.'
He went out of the dressing room ready to sing for his fans.
~@~@~@~@~
"Man that went pretty well." Taiki said as the three Lights headed to their dressing rooms.
"Yeah, we got more girls then last time." Seiya notified.
"You counted all the people?" Yaten and Taiki asked as they both stopped and looked at him with wonder.
"Yup. I happen to notice two odangos in the crowed too." Seiya said happily with a wide grin planted on his face.
He turned to Taiki.
"Don't worry, I also saw a blue haired nerd out there too" he playfully said to Taiki, giving him a smack in the back.
"Hey, watch it buster. She's not a nerd. And look who's talking. At lease I don't fall for a meatball headed cry-baby who you can't even get." Taiki insulted.
Seiya got mad at Taiki's comment.
"Oh yes I can get her! You wait and see!"
'I wonder if Seiya saw a certain blonde head with a red bow.' Yaten thought will Seiya and Taiki fought in the background.
"Whatever. Well I'm going to change and meet my special Odango. See you later sucker." Seiya went to his dressing door giving a wave to his two comrades.
"Why you.!"
Taiki tried to attack him but Seiya closed the door on his face.
"You'll pay for that Seiya! I swear you'll pay!" Taiki screamed to Seiya from the other side of the door and stormed away to his dressing room.
When Yaten noticed he was the only one in the studio hall he quickly headed to his dressing room. Looking in his drawer to find some decent clothes to wear he suddenly felt weak. He almost collapsed but was able to hold on a chair for balance.
"Oh man, my head hurts." Yaten moaned as he held his head.
He then sneezed feeling very dizzy. Then the feeling went away and he was able to stand again without support.
He shook his head as if to send the feeling away. After a few moments at looking at the mirror to make sure he was alright, he started to change.
Yaten finished dressing out of his suit as he went out to the crowd to find the others.
He saw Seiya and Taiki already there both giving each other fuming glares. Usagi and Ami watching with sweat drops.
Rei and Makoto where both talking. He was then greeted by a blonde haired girl
"Hey Yaten, great job on the performance. You were the best." Minako said happily.
Yaten smiled. He was happy that she could make it.
"Hey Minako, thanks."
He went over to her.
"So how's Artemis?" Yaten asked since there was nothing else he could think of.
"He's ok. The vets said that he got a minor cold and that he should just stay home and keep warm." Minako answered.
"Oh, that's good." Yaten said as he stared at the floor.
He started to feel sick again.
His head started to hurt as if someone was hitting his head with a hammer. His sight started to get blurry.
He moaned a bit before he almost lost his balance.
"O god, Yaten! Are you ok?" Minako asked with concernedness in her voice.
It was the last thing he heard before every thing went blank.
Minako caught him before he fell. She laid him on the ground with his head on her lap.
"Minako, what happened?" Seiya asked as he ran to them. The others quickly fallowed.
"I don't know. He just fainted." Minako was panicking.
"Calm down Minako. Here, let me see him." Ami pushed her way in the crowd to reach them.
All the fans that came to the concert were all around Yaten and Minako. Ami looked at him closely. She felt his forehead.
"He has a fever. He's burning!" Ami said anxiously.
"Quick, get him back to the apartment!" the manager ordered as he rushed to the scene.
Seiya and Taiki both picked Yaten up and drove straight home.
~@~@~@~@~
Yaten slowly opened his eyes. His head hurt so much that he thought it would explode.
He heard Seiya and Taiki in the room with him.
"He's waking up." Taiki said as he got up from his chair and placed his book on the table.
"Thank god. I was wondering when he would." Seiya complained as he ran into the room.
Yaten tried to get up by himself but Taiki helped him instead.
"What happened?" Yaten asked groggily.
"You fainted my man. The doctor said that you caught a fever and that you should stay home." Seiya said as he went closer to the bed.
"Oh shoot." Yaten groaned as he held his head with one hand.
"This is just freak'n great." The small Starlight grumbled.
"Yeah I know. Sucks to be you huh?" Seiya commented rudely as he was about to leave the room.
"Why you!!" Yaten screamed as he got on top of his bed, about to throw a pillow at him.
But when a pain shot through his head he impeded, saving the raven haired Starlight from his wrath.
"Oh..." Yaten held his head with to hands as he sat down on the bed again.
"Seiya, you're not helping here." Taiki said crossly, eyeing his leader.
But Seiya just waved as he left the room.
"I'll be with Usagi if you want me." Seiya yelled from the small living room.
Taiki and Yaten heard him close the door.
"Well so much for his help." Taiki grumbled as he crossed his arms.
~@~@~@~@~
Seiya was in the lobby when he saw Minako coming in.
"Minako, hey. What're you doing here?" Seiya asked as he went to her.
"Hey Seiya, I came here to see Yaten. Is he feeling better?" Minako asked a bit worried.
"He's fine. He was finally able to wake up. Knowing Yaten he can survive through this." Seiya answered as he put on his glasses and positioned his hat on his head.
"Well, see you later." Seiya said as he went out the main door giving Minako a peace sign and a wide smile.
'I bet he's going to bother Usagi again. That guy never gives up.'
Minako laughed as she thought to herself.
She ran into the opening elevator and pressed the seventh floor.
'Although, nether do I.' Minako thought again as she went down to the hall towards the Starlight's apartment.
She was mainly thinking about Yaten.
~@~@~@~@~
"How long have I been sleeping?" Yaten asked as Taiki gave him a glass of water.
"A day to be exact" Taiki answered precisely as he sat down and got back to his book.
"Hey, aren't you going to go to the library?" Yaten asked as he saw the book.
"I was... until you got sick." Taiki replied, removing his gaze from the book to the sick pop star.
"Oh... sorry..." Yaten felt a bit guilty keeping his taller friend to stay with him because of his sickness.
Taiki was about to protest when they heard their apartment doorbell buzz.
"I'll go get that. Finish your water and when I get back I'll have soup for you." Taiki notified, getting up from his seat one last time, heading out the room.
'Man, I wish I could head to the library. If only there was a way. Na, what are you thinking Taiki, you can't leave Yaten all by his lonesome self.'
When he opened the door a smile appeared on his face.
'Or maybe...' Taiki thought.
"Minako. Nice to see you." Taiki said as he let her in.
"Hey Taiki. Same here. Is Yaten ok?" She asked as she placing her bag down near the door entrance.
"He's ok... for now. I was about to get him some soup. You want to help?" Taiki asked as a plan formed in his head.
'If Minako stays with Yaten then I can go meet Ami. This has to work; besides Minako would love to stay with Yaten.'
"Sure." Minako said brightly as she fallowed him to the kitchen.
~@~@~@~@~
Yaten, on the other hand, was sneezing.
"Aaa...chooo!!!"
Yaten grabbed a tissue from the box next to him and blew his nose. He heard Taiki talking to the person who was at the door but he had no idea who it was. While he was wondering, Taiki and Minako were getting his soup.
~@~@~@~@~
"So Minako, you doing anything today?" Taiki asked slyly.
"Nope. Nothing at all. What about you?" Minako asked as she looked up from the soup on the stove.
She was trying to watch Taiki prepare the soup so that way she could learn how to make it without any mistakes.
"I was planning to go to the library but I'm stuck home with Yaten." Taiki answered as he said Yaten's name very clearly.
Minako was falling into his plan. An idea shot to her head.
"Wait Taiki, I can stay with Yaten for you." Minako said as she spun her gaze at him willingly.
'YES!!' Taiki thought merrily as he almost felt like jumping for joy.
"Oh gee Minako, thanks."
He soon turned off the stove and put the soup in a bowl.
"For starters, take this to Yaten and make sure he finishes it. I'm going now." Taiki handed Minako the tray with the soup bowl and a soun with a napkin.
"Um... ok." Minako said as she carefully took the tray.
"Oh and don't worry, I'm a natural when it comes to nursing." Minako said happily as Taiki was about to leave the door.
"I'm sure you are." Taiki said cheerfully.
"Good luck Minako and thanks a lot." Taiki then closed the door after giving her a wink.
Minako stared at the door where Yaten was in.
'Alright Minako. This is your chance.'
She slowly went to the door making sure she didn't spill any of the liquid.
~@~@~@~@~
Yaten didn't hear much outside and was wondering what was going on. He was planning to get out of bed to see who the visitor was when he saw the door knob turn. Minako popped her head in with a smile on her face.
"Hey Yaten."
Yaten was a bit shocked to see her at first.
"Mi. Minako?!" a surprising expression formed on his face as his mouth dropped open.
"Yeah, surprised huh?" Minako entered the room as she headed to the bed.
"Uh yeah, I didn't expect you here." Yaten said shyly as Minako sat at the edge of the bed.
Yaten looked at the open door.
"Where's Taiki?" Yaten asked as he turned his gaze back to Minako.
"Oh, he went to the library." Minako said as she carefully placed the soup on the table.
"Library? But he told him he had to stay with me." Yaten said a bit confused.
"He told me the same thing but then I volunteered to stay with you." The blond explained as Yaten's heart sank.
'Oh no!!! This can't be!!! I have to stay with Minako?!!' Yaten thought.
"Here, Taiki told me you had to finish this all up." Minako said held a spoonful of soup near his mouth.
The other hand was holding the soup bowl that was on her lap.
Yaten hated this. He may have been weak but he could hold his own spoon.
"I think I can manage this Minako." Yaten said a bit harshly moving his face away from the spoon.
"Besides, I'm not hungry." He added.
"Oh come on Yaten. You haven't eaten in a while. You could get sick." Minako protested.
"What do you think I'm here for? I'm already sick." Yaten reacted back.
"Listen Yaten..." Minako placed the spoon back in the bowl and looked down on the floor with a depressing expression.
"I'm sorry. The only reason your sick is because of me. If you weren't there on that rainy day yesterday I'm sure you won't have gotten this fever."
Minako placed her gaze back at Yaten's yellow-greenish eyes.
"I want to help you out here to replace my thanks."
Yaten looked at her for a moment.
'I guess I should give her a chance. I mean I do need somebody to take care of me. Especially since my so called friends ditch me.' Yaten thought.
He sighed.
"Ok Minako. I'll cooperate."
A smile appeared across her face.
"Great, now open your mouth." Minako urged as she held the spoonful of soup close to him again.
Yaten grudgingly opened his mouth. As Minako was about to put in the soup, the bowl feel off her lap and fell on him instead.
"AAhhh!!! It's steaming hot!!" Yaten screamed as he jumped up and down from his bed.
Minako first had a sweat drop but then realized what she did.
"Oh god!! Sorry Yaten!!" Minako quickly grabbed the napkin and tried to dry the wet spot off him and his blanket.
'Oh great!! I'm stuck with a klutz.' Yaten said angrily to himself.
His head hurt more then ever since Minako had shown up.
"I'm really sorry Yaten, I didn't mean to." Minako apologized.
"I'll get you a new blanket and pants."
She quickly ran to the closet and grabbed a blanket. She then went to his drawer to get him his new pants. While Yaten tried to dry off the spill he blushed the moment he saw her looking in his underwear drawer.
"Here you go." Minako hurriedly gave him his new boxers and pants as she was panting for breath after running for the dry clothes.
Yaten, still blushing, took the clothes. He then looked at her as she stared back.
"Uh... Minako... I need to..." Yaten tried to say.
Minako understood instantly and rapidly by spinning around.
"Sorry..." Minako spoke shyly as a blush crept up her flushed cheeks.
Yaten quickly changed and threw his wet clothes under his bed.
"Sorry again Yaten." Minako apologized again, turning back to him.
"It's ok." Yaten sighed trying his best to control his temper.
'This is going to be a long day.' He dreadfully thought.

"I'll be with Usagi if you want me." Seiya yelled from the small living room.
Taiki and Yaten heard him close the door.
"Well so much for his help." Taiki grumbled as he crossed his arms.
~@~@~@~@~
Seiya was in the lobby when he saw Minako coming in.
"Minako, hey. What're you doing here?" Seiya asked as he went to her.
"Hey Seiya, I came here to see Yaten. Is he feeling better?" Minako asked a bit worried.
"He's fine. He was finally able to wake up. Knowing Yaten he can survive through this." Seiya answered as he put on his glasses and positioned his hat on his head.
"Well, see you later." Seiya said as he went out the main door giving Minako a peace sign and a wide smile.
'I bet he's going to bother Usagi again. That guy never gives up.'
Minako laughed as she thought to herself.
She ran into the opening elevator and pressed the seventh floor.
'Although, nether do I.' Minako thought again as she went down to the hall towards the Starlight's apartment.
She was mainly thinking about Yaten.
~@~@~@~@~
"How long have I been sleeping?" Yaten asked as Taiki gave him a glass of water.
"A day to be exact" Taiki answered precisely as he sat down and got back to his book.
"Hey, aren't you going to go to the library?" Yaten asked as he saw the book.
"I was... until you got sick." Taiki replied, removing his gaze from the book to the sick pop star.
"Oh... sorry..." Yaten felt a bit guilty keeping his taller friend to stay with him because of his sickness.
Taiki was about to protest when they heard their apartment doorbell buzz.
"I'll go get that. Finish your water and when I get back I'll have soup for you." Taiki notified, getting up from his seat one last time, heading out the room.
'Man, I wish I could head to the library. If only there was a way. Na, what are you thinking Taiki, you can't leave Yaten all by his lonesome self.'
When he opened the door a smile appeared on his face.
'Or maybe...' Taiki thought.
"Minako. Nice to see you." Taiki said as he let her in.
"Hey Taiki. Same here. Is Yaten ok?" She asked as she placing her bag down near the door entrance.
"He's ok... for now. I was about to get him some soup. You want to help?" Taiki asked as a plan formed in his head.
'If Minako stays with Yaten then I can go meet Ami. This has to work; besides Minako would love to stay with Yaten.'
"Sure." Minako said brightly as she fallowed him to the kitchen.
~@~@~@~@~
Yaten, on the other hand, was sneezing.
"Aaa...chooo!!!"
Yaten grabbed a tissue from the box next to him and blew his nose. He heard Taiki talking to the person who was at the door but he had no idea who it was. While he was wondering, Taiki and Minako were getting his soup.
~@~@~@~@~
"So Minako, you doing anything today?" Taiki asked slyly.
"Nope. Nothing at all. What about you?" Minako asked as she looked up from the soup on the stove.
She was trying to watch Taiki prepare the soup so that way she could learn how to make it without any mistakes.
"I was planning to go to the library but I'm stuck home with Yaten." Taiki answered as he said Yaten's name very clearly.
Minako was falling into his plan. An idea shot to her head.
"Wait Taiki, I can stay with Yaten for you." Minako said as she spun her gaze at him willingly.
'YES!!' Taiki thought merrily as he almost felt like jumping for joy.
"Oh gee Minako, thanks."
He soon turned off the stove and put the soup in a bowl.
"For starters, take this to Yaten and make sure he finishes it. I'm going now." Taiki handed Minako the tray with the soup bowl and a soun with a napkin.
"Um... ok." Minako said as she carefully took the tray.
"Oh and don't worry, I'm a natural when it comes to nursing." Minako said happily as Taiki was about to leave the door.
"I'm sure you are." Taiki said cheerfully.
"Good luck Minako and thanks a lot." Taiki then closed the door after giving her a wink.
Minako stared at the door where Yaten was in.
'Alright Minako. This is your chance.'
She slowly went to the door making sure she didn't spill any of the liquid.
~@~@~@~@~
Yaten didn't hear much outside and was wondering what was going on. He was planning to get out of bed to see who the visitor was when he saw the door knob turn. Minako popped her head in with a smile on her face.
"Hey Yaten."
Yaten was a bit shocked to see her at first.
"Mi. Minako?!" a surprising expression formed on his face as his mouth dropped open.
"Yeah, surprised huh?" Minako entered the room as she headed to the bed.
"Uh yeah, I didn't expect you here." Yaten said shyly as Minako sat at the edge of the bed.
Yaten looked at the open door.
"Where's Taiki?" Yaten asked as he turned his gaze back to Minako.
"Oh, he went to the library." Minako said as she carefully placed the soup on the table.
"Library? But he told him he had to stay with me." Yaten said a bit confused.
"He told me the same thing but then I volunteered to stay with you." The blond explained as Yaten's heart sank.
'Oh no!!! This can't be!!! I have to stay with Minako?!!' Yaten thought.
"Here, Taiki told me you had to finish this all up." Minako said held a spoonful of soup near his mouth.
The other hand was holding the soup bowl that was on her lap.
Yaten hated this. He may have been weak but he could hold his own spoon.
"I think I can manage this Minako." Yaten said a bit harshly moving his face away from the spoon.
"Besides, I'm not hungry." He added.
"Oh come on Yaten. You haven't eaten in a while. You could get sick." Minako protested.
"What do you think I'm here for? I'm already sick." Yaten reacted back.
"Listen Yaten..." Minako placed the spoon back in the bowl and looked down on the floor with a depressing expression.
"I'm sorry. The only reason your sick is because of me. If you weren't there on that rainy day yesterday I'm sure you won't have gotten this fever."
Minako placed her gaze back at Yaten's yellow-greenish eyes.
"I want to help you out here to replace my thanks."
Yaten looked at her for a moment.
'I guess I should give her a chance. I mean I do need somebody to take care of me. Especially since my so called friends ditch me.' Yaten thought.
He sighed.
"Ok Minako. I'll cooperate."
A smile appeared across her face.
"Great, now open your mouth." Minako urged as she held the spoonful of soup close to him again.
Yaten grudgingly opened his mouth. As Minako was about to put in the soup, the bowl feel off her lap and fell on him instead.
"AAhhh!!! It's steaming hot!!" Yaten screamed as he jumped up and down from his bed.
Minako first had a sweat drop but then realized what she did.
"Oh god!! Sorry Yaten!!" Minako quickly grabbed the napkin and tried to dry the wet spot off him and his blanket.
'Oh great!! I'm stuck with a klutz.' Yaten said angrily to himself.
His head hurt more then ever since Minako had shown up.
"I'm really sorry Yaten, I didn't mean to." Minako apologized.
"I'll get you a new blanket and pants."
She quickly ran to the closet and grabbed a blanket. She then went to his drawer to get him his new pants. While Yaten tried to dry off the spill he blushed the moment he saw her looking in his underwear drawer.
"Here you go." Minako hurriedly gave him his new boxers and pants as she was panting for breath after running for the dry clothes.
Yaten, still blushing, took the clothes. He then looked at her as she stared back.
"Uh... Minako... I need to..." Yaten tried to say.
Minako understood instantly and rapidly by spinning around.
"Sorry..." Minako spoke shyly as a blush crept up her flushed cheeks.
Yaten quickly changed and threw his wet clothes under his bed.
"Sorry again Yaten." Minako apologized again, turning back to him.
"It's ok." Yaten sighed trying his best to control his temper.
'This is going to be a long day.' He dreadfully thought.
