Chapter four:
Bad Luck's 2nd lead Singer!
Avril looked at Hiro.
" Can I help you?" Avril whispered.
" Yes. I'm a friend of Shuichi's, and he's like a brother to me. You broke his heart, what are you gonna do to fix it?" Hiro demanded angrily.
" Hey man, now she's every bit as upset as Shuichi, so leave her alone!" Dk said coldly.
Dk let go of Avril and started walking towards Hiro. They started arguing down by Hiro's bike, but Avril wasn't paying attention. At that moment, Avril passed out.
" Hey, it's about time you're awake! Do you know that you cry in your sleep?" Dk said quietly.
Avril was lying down on the couch. She looked at the clock, it was 9:00am. Avril looked at Dk and noticed he was bending down to kiss her. She accepted it willingly, and kissed him back.
" I love you." Dk whispered.
" I love you, too." Avril replied.
Avril went into the kitchen to get a glass of water and some aspirin. She took six aspirin and drank the glass of water. She took a shower, got dressed and did her hair. She looked at the clock: 9:30am.
" Dk, I'm outta here!" Avril said.
" Okay, don't go out all day!" Dk replied back.
Avril drove over to Shuichi's house and knocked on the door. Shuichi answered the door after a minute. He looked surprised to see Avril.
" What are you doing here?" Shuichi asked.
" I thought you said we'd go to N-G" Avril whispered.
" Oh! I don't get there until 10:15, so you can go on ahead." Shuichi replied.
" Okay, well… I'll see you there." Avril said quietly.
She arrived at N-G and walked around. She asked the receptionist where Bad Luck's room was. The receptionist said on the second floor, room 206. Avril went to the second floor, room 206. She opened up the door to find a green haired guy sitting in a chair at the table reading. He was the only one there, and he didn't notice her. To hide her bright eyes, she put on her sunglasses and took out her CD. She walked quietly up to the guy and looked at him.
" Shuichi, I know that's you! You better not dump anything on my head, you stupid squirt." The guy said.
Avril exhaled sharply as if she'd been punched when the guy said Shuichi. The guy turned around to face Avril.
" Oh! Hello, sorry about that last comment. Are you lost? Can I help you? I'm Sugaru. Who are you?" Sugaru asked.
" To answer your questions in order: no, I'm not lost, no, you can't help me, nice to meet you, Sugaru, and I'm Avril." Avril said quietly.
" Oh! Here, sit down. Do you want some coffee? The others should be arriving in 10 minutes, at least." Sugaru said.
" Thank you, no thanks, and okay." Avril said quietly.
" Wow. In the magazines, they say you're outspoken and loud. But you've barely said ten words." Sugaru said.
Avril started trembling. She was about ready to cry when someone came through the door. It was a blonde haired person with guns.
" Hi K!" Sugaru said.
" That's K. He's Bad Luck's manager." Sugaru said.
" Who's this? Sugaru… is she your girlfriend? Do you carry bombs on you?" K asked.
" This is Avril, and no she is not." Sugaru answered.
" No, I don't carry bombs, sorry!" Avril said quietly.
" hey, Avril, the magazines say you're outspoken, so: WHY DON'T YOU TALK LOUDER?" K yelled.
" I don't want to talk any louder than this." Avril replied.
Avril started to get into the mood of the two people and became hyper. She started talking more and louder.
" So I've figured it out, you're just SHY!" Sugaru teased.
" Watch her go back into mime state when another person comes in" K said.
"Nu-uh! I'm perfectly capable of talking!" Avril said.
" Are you sure? Five dollars says you'll be quiet next time a person comes through the door" Sugaru said.
" You're on!" Avril said.
" Well, something better happen, because here comes Tohma!" K said.
" Ah! The guy who owns the place! Even better! How about ten dollars?" Sugaru asked.
" Deal!" Avril said.
" Hello everyone!" Tohma said.
" Hi!" all three said.
Avril stood up and walked over to Tohma. She was wearing a black miniskirt and a black tube top, and she hoped that she didn't look cheap.
" Hello, Tohma. I'm Avril. When you're next available, can we talk?" Avril asked.
" Of course, Avril. It is an honor to meet such a big celebrity. Do you need anything?" Tohma asked politely.
" no thanks." Avril said.
" Okay, so we're waiting for Hiro, Shuichi, and Mr. Sakano. After they all come, we'll talk because I already know what this is about. It's about joining Bad Luck, isn't it?" Tohma said.
" Yeah it is. Sounds great. Do you want to join our little party over here and not feel left out?" Avril asked cutely.
" I'm sorry, but I have some paper work and phone calls to take care of, but then I'll join your conversation, okay?" Tohma asked.
"No problem!" Avril said.
She walked back to the table and said that Sugaru could keep his money on account of him having such cool green hair.
" Hey Avril… we're indoors, so why don't you take off you're sunglasses?" K suggested.
" Okay, but you can't look at my eyes and say nice things about them. I hate my eyes! I was born with green eyes." Avril said. She took off her sunglasses and closed her eyes.
" Well? Aren't you gonna open your eyes?" K asked.
Avril opened her eyes. Sugaru and K looked shocked to see how bright her eyes were.
" Um… do your eyes glow in the dark?" Sugaru teased.
" Hmph! I see how you are!" Avril said jokingly.
" What's that?" K said as he pointed towards the CD.
" Oh, that's my CD. You wanna hear it?" Avril asked.
" Hells yeah!" Sugaru and K exclaimed.
Avril handed the CD to K and he turned it on and turned it up.
Shuichi and Hiro showed up just as Sugaru, K, and Avril started dancing to the music.
" Wow, Avril's an excellent dancer." Shuichi whispered to Hiro.
" Yeah, but you have to get over her, Shuichi!" Hiro whispered back.
" I know, but I can't! She's so amazing! And beautiful!" Shuichi whispered.
Tohma came out from his office and Avril came over to him.
" Hey! You promised to join our conversation. This is it!" Avril said.
She pulled Tohma in and started dancing with him. After the song ended, they turned up the volume. Mr. Sakano just walked in and stared in shock at the behavior of the Bad Luck members. He also noticed there was a blue haired girl dancing and what looked like talking also with Tohma.
" That must be Avril?" Mr. Sakano said to Shuichi, who was sitting at the table.
" Yeah. She's perfect, isn't she? I love her!" Shuichi said dreamily.
Mr. Sakano became a human tornado and scared everyone to turn off the music and sit down, except for Tohma. Mr. Sakano sat down and Tohma started talking.
" I'd like to introduce a new member for Bad Luck: 2nd lead singer… Avril! For those of you who don't know her, she's right there!" Tohma said as he pointed towards Avril.
" Any questions for Avril?" Tohma asked.
" Do your eyes glow in the dark?" Sugaru teased.
" For the last time, no!" Avril said back.
" Now stop teasing me!" Avril said towards Sugaru.
" Okay, I'd love to stay here and have my eyes get made fun of, but I've got to strengthen my Chakra energy and I've got a brother to get home to! Little speech before I go: thanks for letting me be here, I'm sure it's going to be wonderful! I know I'm going to have fun with everyone here! And Tohma… haha! Tohma, you're an excellent dancer, I bet you learn only from the best. Bye everyone, see you tomorrow!" Avril said really quickly. She left the room.
Angel: well, I've managed to wake up Shuichi!
Shuichi(soaked with cold water): nice way off waking me up! Lovely! Okay, so… what chapter are we on?
Angel: um… we're going to start chapter 5 soon, so, we've got time to make fun of you, I guess. And yes, I said "we"!
Eiri: hi Angel. Thanks for having me over. You know, Avril's Chakra strength is stronger than mine? I can tell she's going to go places with that strength. So… how are you?
Angel: I'm fine… the usual I guess. Kinda tired, though. I've stayed up all night typing this. the letters on the keyboard is starting to look flurred. I made up that word, along with lidded. It's and inside joke between me and my friend. I doubt you'll get it!
Shuichi: I'm bored! When am I going to have my shining moment in this story?
Angel(pouring more water on Shuichi): FOR THE LAST TIME, YOU ARE IN THE STORY!
Eiri: wow, it's a party over here. I'm going to stay here for a while instead. I like this story so far, and I think Angel is a pretty name. I'll use it in my next story.
Angel: just don't have the people with that name die, please!
Eiri: will do!
Angel: okay, well, while I'm going to have a party over here, you peoples over there can read chapter 5! Good luck! It's a good chapter! R&R!
