I swear and Saturday I went and got the 11th book of Gravitation! It's so cool, and I loved it so much but the 12th book is the last book in the series, which is not cool!sob I want the series to go on forever. But I want to read Gravitation Remixes! If any one knows where to order it or download it please tell me! N E WAYZ on with the story!
Disclaimer- the characters are not mine but the plot is.
"Brat, what time is it?" Eiri asked. Shuichi and him had been walking and talking (mainly Shuichi) for about ten minutes.
"I don't know, I'll have to turn on my cell phone." Shuichi took out his cell phone and fumbled with the buttons trying to figure out how to turn on the phone. Eiri took the phone and turned it on for the baka. Before Eiri could even look at the time someone called.
"Should I answer it?" Shuichi asked.
"Might as well, your father might get worried and call the cops." Eiri said handing the phone to Shuichi.
"Yes?"
"Shuichi, it's me, Hiro." Shuichi relaxed. "Are you busy right now?"
"No, not at all."
"Great! At this club called 'Sugar Hill' there is a singing contest going on and I was telling Fujisaki about it and I think that we should enter!"
"That's so cool! When is it?"
"It's going on right now, I'm glad you said yes because I've already signed us up for it! Fujisaki that he had to stop at his cousin's house first but he would be here as soon as he could. Hurry and get down here Shuichi!"
"I'll be there as soon as possible." Shuichi hung up and had a sort of glazed look in his eyes.
"What is it?" Eiri asked.
"We are going to a club. It'll be so fun! We need a ride."
"Don't worry, I've got it handled. We can call a cab or something." Eiri took Shuichi's cell phone and started to dial numbers.
Later at the party Shuichi found Hiro hanging around the DJ booth.
"Hiro, what's up man?" Shuichi had to shout over the loud music considering they were closet to the speakers. Eiri went off to get himself a drink.
"Hey Shuichi." Hiro said smiling gratefully at him. "I'm so glad you could make it. We are performing in less than 20 minutes, so we've got to find a song to sing since we haven't made up our own yet."
"If we are going to be professionals we better start!" Shuichi laughed. He suddenly went serious, "I told my father about the singing thing, and he wasn't to please. What are we going to do? How are we going to practice?"
"Don't worry, I've got it handled. We are going to make it, it's our dream, isn't it?"
"Definitely!" Shuichi yelled.
"Good, and we will do anything to reach our dream, right?"
"Right!" Shuichi said.
"That's my boy. Look there's Fujisaki!" Hiro said grabbing Shuichi and dragging him away from the DJ booth."
"Sorry about the wait fellas, my cousin's wife was crazy with anger. She was driving everyone wild fussing about something, I didn't stop to listen because I've heard all of this before." Suguru said off handedly.
"Hiroshi, your group is next!" Said a beautiful black girl with long brown hair. She looked to be around Shuichi and Hiro's age, although with the skimpy outfit she had on that outlined her well developed body, then she could of been older. Her named tag read 'Nikka'.
"Thanks for getting us that last spot on the list!"
"Don't worry babe, I've heard you and Fujisaki before, you guys are good. How can I not let talent like you show your stuff?" Nikka said. "Plus I know you two deserve it because you have been working so hard. Is this boy your new lead singer?"
"Hai, I'm Shuichi Shindou." Shuichi shook her hand.
"Shuichi, my dear, you've just ran into a gold mine. These guys are great. See you guys later." Nikka gave Hiro and Suguru a kiss on the cheek and she patted Shuichi reassuringly on the back, since she didn't know him that well.
"Wow, she's beautiful and she looks so young."
"I would hope so since she is our age and goes to our school. Her mother owns this club, so she isn't like the popular rich kids, although she is rich."
"Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen! The band you just heard was called 'Kill me softly!' How did you think they sounded?" Nikka said over the microphone when she had got on the stage. Boo's came from all around and Shuichi found himself getting nervous.
"Okay, okay, calm down. I've got a better group for you guys, my personal favorite, they call themselves 'Bad Luck'!"
"That's us. We are going to sing something from Nittle Grasper. Is that okay? You know some of their songs don't you?" Hiro asked Shuichi.
"I know all of their songs." Shuichi said dreamily. He could not believe that he was getting a chance to sing on stage in front of a large group of people.
"Good, now let's get up on their and do our thing." Hiro said. Suguru nodded and Shuichi composed himself as he started to go up onto the stage.
Eiri was starting to get bored at the bar. He had be flirting with some girl but the girl left and now Eiri was all alone. He tried to look for Shuichi but then realized he was to lazy to get up. The first group to have came up on top of the stage sounded horrible and Eiri has to keep asking himself why he was even here. While Shuichi was playing with his drink he heard music that was very familiar to his ears. Eiri turned swiftly around and saw who was on stage. It was his very own Shuichi. Eiri smiled at how small and scared Shuichi looked. Shuichi started to sing slowly and softly at first and Eiri noticed that Shuichi did in fact have a very nice voice. As Shuichi started to get into the song his voice got louder and better and he started to move with the music.
Eiri was surprised that such a sound could come from someone so small. The club had went quiet listening to Shuichi's voice. When they were finished singing everyone started to clap loudly and some people were even standing up. Fujisaki, Hiro and Shuichi all took there bows. They came off of the stage as Nikka went back up to announce the winners. Shuichi and his friends made it over to Eiri who was still marveling over Shuichi's voice.
"So did I do?" Shuichi asked, almost shyly.
"You were pretty good. Very impressive." Eiri nodded to Hiro and his eyes froze on Fujisaki who glared at Eiri.
"Your sister is very mad!" Suguru said. Eiri rolled his eyes and waved his hand to signal for another drink.
"What else is new?"Eiri said.
"Wait a minute, you were at the party too? I didn't see you."
"I arrived after everyone had left. Apparently some idiot had broken the windows of some cars. Right after you left Tatsuha showed up for five minutes and then disappeared. Your father was so upset that his sons didn't stay around with him."
"Fujisaki, do me a favor and shut the fuck up." Eiri said downing his drink and standing up. Suguru glared at Eiri but didn't say anything.
"And the winners of tonight's contest is no other than 'BAD LUCK'!" Nikka said.
"We WON!" Shuichi said hugging Hiro. "What do we get?"
"A chance to come back next week and $300!" Suguru said, forgetting about Eiri and smiling.
"Cool!" Shuichi said as they went up onto stage and got their certificates and cash money. Eiri watched Shuichi closely. "See ya later Shuichi." He muttered before walking away. He had enough of the fresh air, but he did have fun with the little baka. Maybe next time he will stay with Shuichi longer.
When Shuichi came down from the stage he was disappointed to find Eiri had gone but when the music started to play Shuichi just got into the mood and he started to dance his ass off.
"Shuichi, drink this." Hiro said giving Shuichi a small glass.
"We can't drink! We aren't old enough." Shuichi was already taking the glass out of Hiro's hands.
"You are such a good-goody. Just drink the damn thing. Fujisaki is already starting to feel it." Hiro said as he and Shuichi saw Fujisaki dancing with Nikka in matter that was not at all like Fujisaki.
"Alright." Shuichi laughed as he and Hiro cheered and went to go dance with some more girls.
"What the fuck do you want?" Eiri said as he came inside of his house and saw someone laying on his couch and flipping through his TV, oh so comfortable.
"Just thought I'd come and see my only brother, you don't mind, do you?" Tatsuha said not really caring over the answer Eiri gave him. "I didn't think you would be alone."
"Ayaka is at father's house."
"I wasn't talking about Ayaka. I don't think Ayaka has pink hair and I know she can't be in two places at one time. Who were you running out with?"
"I don't know what you are talking about."
"Cut the bullshit! Father is going to be pissed that you once again manage to get yourself into trouble."
"You came over here to lecture me?" Eiri said going to sit down across from his brother.
"No, I didn't ." Tatsuha said. "It's just that I wanted to see if you were different."
"Why would I be different?"
"I know Ayaka doesn't make you happy and I thought maybe you've found someone who did. You seem different but it's to early to tell." They both got quiet lost in their own thoughts.
"Do you want some coffee or something?" Eiri said getting up and going to his kitchen.
"Sure, that's sounds good." Tatsuha said smiling.
Shuichi didn't get home to around 2 am in the morning. He was drunk and could barely walk. Suguru and Hiro weren't in any better shape. Shuichi unlocked his house door and came inside of his house stumbling. Everything was dark and Shuichi couldn't find the light switch.
"It's dark." Shuichi said out loud.
"I know." Shuichi froze at the sound of the coldness of the voice.
"I thought you would still be at the party or at the office." Shuichi said suddenly sober. Shindou came to his son and glared at him.
"You pathetic excuse for a son. You have no respect for me or anyone else. You are just like your mother, no one could tame her and it's a wonder why I even stayed with her for as long as I did." Shindou yelled. Shuichi looked away from his father clenching his jaw. How dare he?
"Look at me when I'm talking to you!" SMACK Shindou slapped Shuichi hard in the face and this time Shuichi couldn't prepare himself for it because he didn't see it. In reflex Shuichi took a step forward and was going to punch his father but then he realized who it was and stopped.
"I see that I can't take you any where. I buy you things but I see for someone raised like a rat you need to steal things too. Go to your room and don't come out until I say so." Shindou left and Shuichi went to his room and slammed the door. Shuichi now knew the real reason why he wouldn't fight.
It use to be because he didn't want his father to look at him like his mother did, but Shuichi realized that his father could never compare to his mother. Shuichi didn't want Shindou to look at him in disgust, kind of like what he did tonight. Shuichi wanted to show Shindou that his mother was perfect and she had raised her son just right.
Shuichi stripped down to his boxers and climbed into his bed. His thoughts wandered over to Eiri. Shuichi thought that the reason he was only talking to Eiri was because Shuichi hated to be forgotten but now Shuichi knew it was something else. Something more. . .intimate. Ayaka didn't deserve Eiri and Shuichi was going to prove how undeserving she was.
Well, that's it. What do you think? To straighten this out, I get out of school on May 20, so I mean it's not that long if I waited to update until then. Thank you very much to all the reviewers out there, you guys are the main reason I keep writing. I told myself this chapter wouldn't be very long but I wanted to keep typing and now I'm tired so I'll take a long nap so I can study for my exams. Exams should burn in hell. Some kids started crying because it was to hard, which is totally stupid because if they just calm down a little then everything would just happen. Then again I'm just that kind of person. So. . . .please review and let me know what you think!
