Twisted
Summary: Risa is a top model working on her hot new drama series. Riku is her own sister's manager and looking for the right guy to play Risa's lover. Dark and Daisuke are just regular people. But with a twist of Fate, their emotions are put to the test.
Scene Three: To Be or Not To Be
Risa smiled at the two teenage boys sitting in front of her. She tried her best to make sure the smile was fully directed at the violet haired, disinterested young man. Riku, who was sitting next to her, kept on fidgeting on playing the hem of her skirt. She stopped doing so to take a sip of her tea.
"So…you guys are really…sisters?" asked Daisuke.
Risa nodded. "Yup! Twin sisters actually…"
"Twins?"
"Yeah of course we are! Right, Riku?"
"Uh-huh. Twins, right." Riku replied, crossing her arms.
Risa smiled at them again, causing Daisuke to turn red.
"This is really starting to bore me." Dark said, "Is there anything to do?"
"Dark!" Daisuke exclaimed, "Don't be rude! I'm sorry about the way my cousin is acting…"
"No! Please, don't worry about it," Risa said, batting her eyelashes.
Daisuke literally melted into a puddle of goop. I finally get to meet her! I'm so happy! He leaned into the couch, smiling like a maniac. "Um, Miss Harada, I was wondering…"
Risa cocked her head to one side, a small smile playing her lips, "Please, call me Risa! Miss Harada makes me sound old…Besides! Riku is the older one here!"
"Hey!"
Risa smiled at her sister. "I'm kidding! So what is it Daisuke?"
Daisuke looked into her eyes and instantly looked down.
Dark sighed – the younger Harada twin sighing in ecstasy at that action – and scratched the back of his head. "Will you just spit it out?"
Daisuke turned to look at him and scowled. "I wasn't talking to you Dark!"
"I'm here listening, aren't I?"
"Dark, mind your own business!"
"Shut up Daisuke!"
"Ahem." The two boys turned in front of them to see Risa staring in awe and Riku fake coughing. "Maybe you two should save that for later. Daisuke, didn't you have something to say to Risa?"
Daisuke nodded feverishly and mumbled, "Do you already have someone to play Kazuma in you second Season?"
Dark rolled his eyes, "Typical."
Risa glanced over at Riku and said, "Actually, I'm not so sure. Riku hasn't really told me yet."
Riku smiled and looked at the two boys in front of her. The disinterested Dark looked at her and mentally grinned. She was really pretty when she smiled like that…
"There are five guys left actually. Out of all that people only five made it to the final cut. Risa, now that we're on that subject, I need you on the set tomorrow for the final five." Riku said, "And, the director called, he set up a meeting for Thursday."
Risa nodded slowly and turned to the two boys. "Hey, you guys should come to the auditions tomorrow! It would be truly wonderful if you could see me at work!"
"Risa…" Riku started, "we shouldn't…"
"Oh, come on Riku! It's not everyday that we make friends outside of the acting circle! It would be fun! Besides, Daisuke would love it! Right, Daisuke?"
Daisuke nodded, as Risa gave him yet another charming smile. Dark, on the other hand, said, "Oh yeah, Little Boy Dai here would love that! He's loves your little shows…hehe just as much as he loves you!"
Daisuke instantly went red.
Risa smiled and shook off the comment. Oh wow, surprise me even more handsome! "Really? Aw, Daisuke! That's so sweet!"
"Yeah, considering the fact that he watches your shows over and over and OVER again. He practically memorized your whole entire show," Dark said, smirking, "He cries at all the emotional scenes…"
"Dark!" Daisuke threw a pillow at him and tried to hide his blushing face.
Risa, on the other hand, watched as Dark said every word, she studied his features, and mentally drooled at him. The sheen of his hair! The intensity of his gaze! Oh, how sexy can this man be! She sighed and continued to daydream.
Riku rolled her eyes at her sister's starry eyes. I knew it.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The butler walked in and said, "Lady Riku, Lady Risa, supper is served. Are the young masters staying as well?"
"That would be awesome if they did," Riku said, smiling at Daisuke.
Daisuke smiled back, "I really don't know, we should be heading back now."
Risa stood up and said sweetly, "Oh, but we insist! It would be truly wonderful if you both could stay."
"I'm sorry, but my mother is expecting us before it gets too dark," Daisuke said, standing to meet Risa's eyes. He smiled sheepishly and shook her hand. "Thank you for the offer though."
"Don't worry! Anytime!" Risa said, and turned to Riku, "Could you give Daisuke the directions to the studio? For tomorrow?"
Riku nodded and motioned Daisuke to follow her to the next room over.
Perfect! Risa's eyes gleamed as her plan worked. We're alone together! Oh GOD, look at his body!
"So…" Dark said, his hands shoved into his pockets. "Risa…was it?"
Risa nodded feverishly and blushed.
"Cool."
Silence hung between them.
Does this chick say anything?
Risa opened her mouth but nothing came out as Riku and Daisuke came back in. "So the studio is on the left side?" Daisuke asked.
"Yup, studio 12 is on the left side." Riku smiled, "see you there then!"
Daisuke grinned back and walked over to the door, "Come on, Dark!"
Dark smiled and went over to Riku, "See you later, sweetheart."
Riku stuck her tongue out at him. "Not in a million years," she said, leaving the room and following Daisuke.
Dark grunted and walked past Risa. She blinked and turned around and grabbed his arm. "Wait!"
"Yes, Ms. Harada?"
"Please, call me Risa," she pleaded, looking down. She blushed deep red as she realized she was still holding unto his arm. Even so, she reluctantly let go and stared at his eyes…Oh his eyes! "I was wondering, when you come to the studio tomorrow, if you would…well…" Risa muttered something and looked down again.
Dark smiled and placed his index finger on her chin and lifted her head to make them have eye contact. "What did you say?" he asked soothingly, turning on the charm.
Risa blushed deepened as she blurted out, "I was wondering if you would like to audition for the part of Kazuma!"
Dark chuckled and flashed her yet again another smile, "I'll think about it."
Risa's eyes lit up. "Oh please say yes!"
"What do you see in me?"
"I…well…you just seem perfect for the part!" I also see how sexy you are! You're absolutely perfect!
"I'm perfect? Well, I am perfect…like I said before, I'll think about it."
"Thank you so much!" Risa smiled at him, her inner actress dancing with joy.
He smiled again, his charm meter reaching the skies, "No problem. I'd do anything to see that smile of yours."
If Risa had not contained herself, she would have died of happiness. Oh, how Dark was enjoying this. "Well, Miss Risa, I have to get going, Little Dai might get scared without me!"
"Risa," she said, her voice coming out in almost a whisper.
"What?"
"Risa. Not 'Miss Risa,' just 'Risa.' Don't make me feel too old."
He chuckled in amusement, "Risa it is…"
She blushed. "Thanks, Dark!"
Meanwhile, at the same time with Daisuke and Riku…
Daisuke slipped on his Converse slowly and sighed. Curse those curfews…who made them up anyways? Here he was, at the Risa Harada's household…and he had to leave. After less than an hour of chatting, he had to leave. Damn you, curfews…Risa Harada…THE RISA HARADA! He was in the same exact household with the one girl whom he has loved! Oh life, how unfair could you be!
"Daisuke!"
The red head turned to see the short haired version of his affection. Riku smiled at him and asked, "Why do you have to leave so early?"
"My mom…remember?"
She looked at him and gave a shy smile, scratching the back of her head. Riku blushed slightly at her stupid question. Why was she out there with him anyways? "Oh, right…sorry…I guess I forgot…"
Daisuke blinked at her, and smiled back. Like I said before, she has a real nice smile…
"Well, I guess I should…go back then huh?" Riku said, trying so hard to hide her embarrassment. "I'll see you tomorrow then Daisuke!"
"Yeah, tomorrow Miss Harada…"
Riku shook her head and pointed her finger at him. "No, no, no! Not 'Miss Harada' but 'Riku,' call me Riku!" She stepped forward to meet him when she tripped on something placed next to the plant. Crap! She closed her eyes tight and waited for the impact of cold, hardwood floor.
"Riku!"
Cold, hardwood floor…
Instead of the floor, Riku felt warm arms around her waist and warm breath on her neck. She slowly opened her eyes stood still for a few seconds before registering what has happened. I trip…I fall…I get hurt…but, something's wrong…
"Are you okay, Riku?"
Riku turned bright red and pulled away from his hold. She turned her back to him while nodding vigorously. "Thank you," she whispered, her cheeks still flushed.
Daisuke nodded and faced the door, a small blush creeping on his cheeks. Why am I blushing? "So, uh," he turned to face her, "thanks for inviting us over and, uh, yeah…see you tomorrow…"
Riku slowly faced him and grinned. "Yup! Tomorrow…don't be late okay?"
She didn't get an answer because Daisuke was blushing like mad at the figure that was rushing behind Riku.
"RIKUUU!"
She looked behind her and saw her sister walking to her, a huge smile on her face. Her eyes were twinkling…a whole lot of twinkling…that was scaring Riku. "Y-yes?" Riku forced a smile, but it soon quickly faded as she spotted someone – or, as she referred to him as something – behind her younger sister.
Risa looked at her innocently, "Riku, have you seen my bag?" Risa looked around carefully and squealed, "Never mind I found it!" she grabbed the designer purse from the base of the plant and hugged it gingerly. "Yay! I found you!"
"Idiot! Risa, that stupid bag of yours almost killed me!"
"Aw…Riku!"
"Idiot, idiot, idiot!"
Dark walked up to Daisuke, muttering words that sounded oddly like, "Women, when their arguing, you cant get a good look at their stuff…"
Riku's bright eyes suddenly turned dark with anger, "PERVERT!" she yelled at the nineteen year old.
He smiled at her. "You know you love me."
Still fuming with anger, Riku pushed the violet haired young man out the door. "STAY OUT!" She placed her hands on her hips and turned to Daisuke, "You, on the other hand, are welcome here anytime!"
Daisuke nodded and walked out the door. The last words he heard were, "Riku! How could you!"
Daisuke walked ahead of his cousin, his hands shoved in his pockets. Today was absolutely the best day of his life…he just met the Risa Harada. He was in her house…sitting on her couch…talking to her even…oh today was heaven for the young Niwa.
"Daisuke, you're drooling."
He snapped back to reality and gave Dark a murderous glare. "Shut up."
"God, I'm only stating the facts Little Dai…"
"Quit it with this 'Little Dai' stuff! It's embarrassing!"
"But your mommy dear has called you Little Dai since forever! I remember that…you would go up to her and go 'Mommywommykins!'" Dark exploded into laughter as he reminisced about his childhood.
Daisuke blushed deep red and rushed forward. "Dark, you're horrible."
The older teen wiped away a tear and calmed himself. "Hey, Dai, I'll stop." He scratched the back of his head and sighed. What the hell was Daisuke's problem? Lighten up the mood, that's what Dark lived for. But for cripes sake, Daisuke was a guy.
"Daisuke, are we still up for the studio thingy tomorrow?"
Daisuke actually stopped and acknowledged his presence, "Yeah, I've always wanted to see Miss Risa in action; you know, working on the set and stuff. And I've wanted to see what Riku does."
Dark smirked, "Did I tell you that Risa wants me to play Kazuma?"
Daisuke stood there, as if slowly registering what his cousin has just said.
…
…
…
"WHAT?"
"YOU DID WHAT?"
Risa smiled sheepishly at her sister, twirling a lock of her hair around her finger. "I asked Dark to play Kazuma for the second season! Isn't that awesome!"
Riku stared long and hard at her sister.
…
…
…
"YOU IDIOT!" she yelled, "Dark is the biggest pervert to ever walk among mankind! You're risking your life – no, not your life – but you're risking your virginity!"
Risa blushed deep crimson, "Riku! I never knew you could think such things!" She cupped her face, the blush growing. "Oh, Riku! There are some HOT make out scenes in season two! Oh! I can hardly contain myself! What if we go a little too steamy? Ooh! I'm so excited!" She turned to her sister, "Hey are you listening to me?"
Riku shook her head, her hands covering her ears and saying over and over again, "My virgin ears! My virgin ears!"
Risa sighed disapprovingly, "Riku, you're sixteen! Maturity is the key level here!"
Riku shook her head, strands of her light auburn hair framing her face. "No, but that's besides the point, are you sure it's alright to have that, that pervert play Kazuma? I mean, things could happen…"
"Well yeah I mean…wait a minute, you aren't stopping me?"
Riku shrugged her shoulders. "Why bother, you're 'hopelessly in love' with him anyways."
Risa flipped back her long hair, tears forming at the corner of her eyes. "Riku!" She lunged at her sister and gave her a bear hug. "I knew you would understand!"
Riku sighed, "Yeah, yeah, whatever." She pulled away and began walking to her room. "Let's just say I didn't warn you."
The younger sibling did not here the last statement as her eyes sparkled with delight, dreams of what tomorrow will bring. "Oh, Dark!"
Closing her door, Riku locked it and sat on her huge bed, a smile playing her lips. "This will be fun. When he's on the set, I'll call security, or better yet I'll…"
Riku spent the entire night devising ways to get Dark away from her sister.
