Chapter 7 – Let's Start All Over Again
"Bad Luck, thank you for accepting our requests for an open interview today." A reporter said.
Bad Luck was currently doing an interview with reporters.
"First I would like to congratulate you for a successful healing after the accident." A reporter said.
"Thank you to everyone who had send me cards and gifts. I really appreciate them and they are what gave me the strength to recover fast." Shuichi said.
"So we see. Regarding the accident, has the polices caught the driver that is responsible yet?" A reported asked.
"Unfortunately no. It seems that there was no witness during the time I was hit by the car." Shuichi answered.
"That's really too bad. But at least you are up running on the stage again. Yuki-san must had been really worried about you." A reported said.
The whole room started to chuckle.
"Who?" Shuichi asked in confusion.
"Oh, don't be shy anymore Shindou-kun. It's already been a year since you two were officially together, everyone already knows about y9ou two." A reported said, while trying to suppress his laughter.
Shuichi was about to say something again when a reporter interrupted him with another question.
"Shindou-kun, the new release of Bad Luck's CD is coming soon. How are things coming along?"
"Oh, everything is going just fine. We already finished recording the first few songs. We can guarantee that the new CD would be a big hit once its out on the market." Shuichi gave the reporters a thumb up.
"N-G just gave out the news a few weeks ago that Nittle Grasper and Bad Luck would be having a joint concert in two mouths of time. Can you tell us a little about it?" A reporter asked.
"Well, there would be singing and dancing of course. Other then that, you guys would just have to come and see." Shuichi winks at the reporters.
"Well, Shindou-kun, we know that you work hard at your job but as a fan of Yuki-san, I hope you would still be able to make time for him. Well then, I guess this wraps up our interview for today. Thank you." A reporter said.
Everyone was getting ready to leave when Shuichi suddenly stood up.
"Um… one question before you go. Can anyone please tell me who is this Yuki-san you are talking about? You guys made it sound like he is my lover or something." Shuichi said.
That surprised everyone. Within seconds, all the reporters got back into their seat and started asking questions again.
"Shindou-kun, are you declaring an official breakup with Yuki Eiri?"
"What caused the breakup?"
"Is it because there is a third person who is involved?"
"Shindou-kun…"
"Shindou-kun…"
&&&
Shuichi sighed as he slumped down in his chair.
Tohma chuckled. "I am afraid I am not able to help you. Shuichi has already made the medias thinks that Yuki and him broke up."
"And I bet Yuki already knows about this too since the reporters are camping outside his apartment waiting for an interview." Noriko said.
"I am sorry. I didn't mean to cause this much trouble." Shuichi said tearfully.
"Is ok Shuichi. Is not really your fault. If I were you, I would have done the same thing also since they are talking about someone I don't know." Tatusha said in comfort.
Shuichi smile. "Right!"
"Maybe we can tell the medias that Shuichi was just joking." Fujisaki suggested.
K shook his head. "Do you think the medias would buy it?"
"Ryuichi don't like the idea either!" Ryuichi said childishly. "That would only causes more news! Reporters would keep bugging Yuki, asking him how does he feel and stuff!"
"Ryuichi is right" Sakano said.
"This is not getting us anywhere!" Noriko half shouted.
&&&
Yuki had been hiding from the medias ever since the morning after the Bad Luck interview.
Yuki was really surprised when Shuichi said what he said. Now everyone is thinking that he, Yuki Eiri, was dumped. Is God trying to kill him! He had already lost Shuichi and now he has to get pissed off by the medias too!
Yuki is currently dressed in all black with sunglasses, sitting at a café drinking coffee and reading a book, praying that no one would notice him.
"Can you believe it? Yuki Eiri and Shindou Shuichi broke up!" A girl who was sitting at the table near Yuki's said.
The boy sitting with the girl nodded. "And they looked so good together too."
Yuki's eyes widen in surprise.
"That's what suck about being famous. A simple breakup can causes this much news." The girl said.
The boy laughed. "I really want to know, who got dumped first? I bet it was Shindou Shuichi."
"Haha, I bet it was Yuki Eiri. Know why? Cause he is the one who is doing the hiding right now. If he really was the one who dumped Shindou Shuichi, then he would have come right out and say it!" The girl said.
Yuki held his fists tight. This is the biggest embarrassment in his whole life.
"Haha, what a loser. Can't eve keep a single man's heart." The boy laughed.
Yuki suddenly stood up, slammed a twenty dollar bill down and stomped away.
&&&
"Ok… this is getting too boring. I am going out for a walk!" Shuichi said, while getting up.
"Shuichi, wait! There are reporters everywhere in the city right now! You will get surrounded the moment you take a step out of N-G!" Sakano said.
"I will just go out in disguise then!" Shuichi walks out the door.
"Are we really gonna let him go?" Hiro asked.
"Yes. Maybe it would be good for him to get some fresh air." Tohma said.
"Just hope that he can get away from the death grasps of the reporters." Tatusha said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
&&&
Shuichi nervously steps out of N-G. every reporters quickly turn to look at him but look away soon after.
Shuichi sigh in relief. "I guess black coat and sunglasses are good enough disguise."
"Just act nice and calm and no one would notice you Shuichi." Shuichi whispered to himself.
Shuichi walking with his head down. 'Please let me go safely! Please let me go safely!" Shuichi thought nervously.
&&&
On the other hand, Yuki was now walking towards N-G. Hoping to get a chance to talk things out with Tohma and the others.
He was looking at the floor while walking and all he wanted to do now was to get to his destination as soon as possible.
&&&
Before both of them can see each other, they found themselves on the floor from bumping into each other.
"Owww…" Shuichi rubbed his head.
"Watch where you are going klutz!" Yuki shouted at the teen.
"I am sorry…" Shuichi got up and offered a hand to Yuki
Yuki just ignored the hand and stood up on his own. Yuki look down at the person he bumped into. Violet meets gold. Shuichi stare wide eyed at Yuki while Yuki just stare back.
Time seemed to had passed between them. Yuki's eyes soften and Shuichi couldn't help but blush.
"AAHHH! Is them! There they are!" A woman's yell broke the moment.
Before Yuki and Shuichi could registered what was happening, reporters had already surrounded them, sealing all hopes for an escape.
Shuichi then realized that his sunglasses had fallen off from the bump.
"Since you two are here together, can you please answer our questions?" A reporter asked.
"Yuki-san, what really happened between you two?" A reporter asked.
"I…" Yuki took a step back.
&&&
Tatusha, Noriko, Tohma, Ryuichi, K, Sakano, Hiro and Fujisaki were just watching TV when suddenly, Yuki and Shuichi became live news.
Sakano-san almost chokes on his tea.
"Oh no…" Tohma said.
&&&
"Shindou-kun, everyone is guessing right now, Was it you who dumped Yuki-san or was it the other way around?" A reporter asked.
"I don't know what you are talking about." Shuichi said in confusion.
Yuki watches as Shuichi answered the reporters. Memories suddenly began to flow back to him.
Can I be you Yuki again, Shuichi?
I will never give you up as long as I know that there is still hope!
I will do my best to make you remember and to reawaken our love!
"Stop for a minute!" Yuki shouted.
Everyone stopped and turn to look at Yuki.
"To tell you the truth…" Yuki began.
&&&
"Don't tell me he is going to…." Sakano said in surprise.
"Idiot! Don't!" Hiro yelled out.
"Maybe this would be for the best." Tohma whispered.
&&&
"… Because of the recent accident that occurred to Shuichi, he had… had lost all of his memories of me after he woke up." Yuki explained.
Everyone's eyes widen and turn to look at Shuichi.
"Is this true Shindou-kun? You can't remember a thing about Yuki-san?" A reporter asked.
"I…" Shuichi sweatdropped.
"I am not finished!" Yuki said angrily.
Yuki turn to look at Shuichi and Shuichi could only stare back.
"I just want you to hear me out Shuichi and everyone here today are going to be witness. Shindou Shuichi, I have decided if you can't remember me, I won't force you to anymore…" Yuki said.
Shuichi's heart skipped a beat and everyone gasped.
"I won't force you anymore. Instead, I want to start over…. As friends." Yuki said.
Shuichi's eyes widen in surprise.
Yuki suddenly held out his hand. "Hi, my name is Yuki Eiri; I am a famous romance novelist. You?"
Shuichi took Yuki's hand and shook it. "I am Shindou Shuichi, vocalist of the famous Bad Luck."
