I thought no one would be interested in this little fanfic and I just throw this story in. I'm glad there are other people thinking the same way as I am. This story has a little bit of shonen ai in it, so I hope you can accept it.
"Thank you all for coming!" With this, the shake hand event of Six Gravity and Procellarum ended after their amazing performance. Their stunning appearance, their captivating voices, their amusing dances had satisfied their fans more than enough. Once the lights were out, every members of each group ran to the dressing room where Syunpei were left locked. Everyone had the same reason but different intention. Hajime and Shun were in the front line of the fast-paced walking of the members, just like a leader would. The staff around could see the distress expression on their faces, they looked troubled. Crap! It was longer than it should! That boy must be raging in there! Hajime thought as he opened the door as fast as he could. To his surprise, what he found was not a kid throwing a tantrum or complaint, he found that Syunpei was sound asleep on the black leather couch. Everyone gathered around him, wondering what to do. Since they did not even know where he lived, neither did his name, they were clueless on their next action. His face was so peaceful, they did not dare to wake him up. It would be problematic to go against his anger side, especially after what had happened. They just looked at his sleeping face while thinking of a solution. Somehow, his face sent an aura so calming and serene that they would not want to let him go. He looked like the innocent child that everyone adored. "What do we do now?" Yoru asked with a concern tone. They could not take him to their dorm. If they did, only troubles awaited them. They could have him stayed at their manager's house for one night, but they knew Syunpei would consult to him and it spelled doom for them. The leaders were working their brains out, searching for an idea that could favor both side. Among them, Kakeru, raised his hand. This indicated that he had a solution, now to know if it were brilliant or stupid enough it was better than nothing. "Well, how about one of us stays at a hotel with him? Or more people would be okay too." The idea sounded stupid, but that was all they could do. Now they needed to decide who would stay by his side the whole night until morning. "Let's do this the usual way!" The eccentric member, Iku, suddenly pumped up like he was in a competition. It made the others felt his competitive aura and joined in. "Winner takes all! Ready?"
The next day, Syunpei woke up with the ray of sunshine heating his face. He tried to open his eyes but the light was blinding. He could not see properly, he needed to know where he was. One thing he knew was that he was not at home. The bed he slept in was too comfortable, the room temperature was cold, the room was too spacious. Is this one of their room? He thought as he rised and landed his hand on something hard. He looked beside him and surprised to find Kakeru was sleeping there. Syunpei's hand was on Kakeru's chest, he could feel his heart pumping to breathe. He quickly took off his hand so that the blonde hair boy would not wake up. It was a last minute saved since Kakeru felt uncomfortable and almost woke up. Syunpei shake his head off trying to think of a good reason for him to be there. Maybe this was his bed and there were no other ones. But with a room this spacious, it was impossible. There should be a couch in the living room and he could sleep there. Why would he decide to sleep beside him? Unless... Syunpei left the room as quietly as he could, tiptoed as not to make the slightest noise at all. He knew they tried to keep him as their 'maid', that was why there was a lookout. He finally reached the door, his one way to freedom, to home sweet home. Before he could even reach for the handle, the door bell rang. "Kakeru, you're awake yet?" A voice travelled through the solid door. Syunpei knew that voice too well, it was the voice that annoyed him the most. The voice of Shun, the silver hair devil. *That voice... It's him!* Panic and scared, he decided to return to the bedroom. The blonde hair idol still in his dreamland, not knowing of the event unfolded before him. The door bell rang again, and the same voice called out his name. "Kakeru, open up." Out of ideas and reasons, he tried to wake the sleeping idol up." Wake up! Your friends here! Don't leave me alone with them! GET. UP." He pulled the blanket away from him, resulting in Kakeru falling out of bed. It was painful for Kakeru, but satisfying to Syunpei. At least he finally woke up, even if he still hazy.
Hajime and Haru had come to send Syunpei home, any details about him working with them would be discussed again in the future. He even being sent home with tons of merchandise from the event, as a made up for making him wait. Syunpei did not want to take the offer at first, but he was forced to. For now, he would attend school like a normal middle schooler would. With that much information given, they left to do what they had to do while Kakeru stayed at the hotel to pack his things up. While he was doing so, something about last night came into his mind. "He...was crying. I'm not seeing things, right?" When Hajime and the others had left them at the hotel last night, Kakeru stayed up late to watch over the brown hair boy. There was no point in doing so, but he felt the need to. More like he wanted to. For hours he only sat and stared at the sleeping kid, thinking about everything that had happened between them. The incident at the stairs passed by his memories and made him flustered. I'm the worst! He thought to himself while trying to hide his embarrassment. Syunpei might be asleep, but he could wake up anytime soon. It would be a shame if he saw his red face. Then, Kakeru heard he mumble something in his sleep. He tried to hear what it was so he drew himself closer. "Dad..." Tears could be seen flowing down the boy's cheek, his trembling soft voice was barely heard by Kakeru. Guilt and curiosity builded up in the blonde idol's heart. What happened to his father? Does he miss him? Is he dead? Was he seeking help from him because of us? Was he pressured by our action? It was because...Of us? His thought kept on repeating in his head all night, like a recorded CD played on loop. He held both of his hands and put it on his head, the emotions he felt was too much to handle. He did not have the intention to fall asleep there, but his thinking made him tired himself out thus accidentally layed down beside him. The present day, Kakeru was attending his singing practice as usual. He did everything with his heart's content. Even so, he was admonished by Koi that he seemed to lack emotions through his works. "Is something troubling you? You can tell me anything, you know." His friend reassured him like every other time he felt negative. Even so, Kakeru put aside his worries about Syunpei and tried to act normal. It could not fool the pink haired man but it was enough to fool everyone, and that was enough. Should I tell them? What will happen if I do? Will they let him go? Kakeru wonder since he was concerned on Syunpei's situation. He needed to stop this before it was too late. He could not stand it if he was to see the kid's crying face again. His heart would ache more than a knife going through it. He made plan with Hajime, his group's leader, in private to talk about it.
Meanwhile, Syunpei's school life ran smoothly than he imagined. He was being able to hang out with his friends peacefully. He attended his club at school, the gaming club. He even had time to study and revise. He felt uncomfortable by this. He thought those boastful adults were going to disturb his life continuously. It was unbelievable that they would stop without a word like that. He just met them once, but he knew them too well. He predicted it too well that after school today, they were coming to get him. And they did. His heart was debating whether this was a good sign or the opposite. Surprisingly, only Hajime was there to pick him up. It was seen as a normal pick up since he wear a disguise, prevent himself from being recognized as a pop idol. But Syunpei did not know that. He thought Hajime and the rest of Six Gravity and Procellarum were just normal crew members. That was also the main reason why they decided on him. Having someone who did not know them was rare, so meeting one like Syunpei was a one in a million opportunity. They found it was interesting since they were a famous group. Just said the name and they could hear fans screaming from a distance. "So, this is your school. How lame," the black hair man tried to tick Syunpei off but he was calm enough to answer it. "I don't care what you said. More importantly, why are you here?" He inquired with a serious look on his face. He was trying to hide his fear of him, and the fear of everyone sticking their noses in this. Hajime could sense it through his slightly stuttering reply and grin to it. "I've come to pick you up, your highness." With this, Hajime bow down to Syunpei just like a servant would. He was creating a scene that made everyone looked at their direction. Shocked, the middle schooler told Hajime off. He certainly did not want to attract any more attention than they already had. "Stop this! You're embarassing me!" Hajime chuckled as he rised, putting a silly face enough to piss Syunpei off. Again, he tried to shamelessly embarrass Syunpei in front of the school by extending his hands to him and said some sappy line in dramas. Even so, it failed since the brown hair boy quickly pulled him away from the school ground. He would make this worst even more, the number of eyes locking at them were too much. They took a stop at a cafe in town. It seemed that Hajime had something important to discuss with him. The face he put right now was solemn, like a real man's face. Because of that, Syunpei stayed quiet instead of protesting. Even if he did, it was not like he was going to listen to it anyway. The atmosphere was tense. He did not know how to overcome this. Usually he had this intimidating aura around him, an annoying aura that was. None of them said a word. It was as if they were listening to the wind, passing by to drop a message. In order to break the silence, the thin boy started talking first.
"Did something happen?" Hajime interrupted Syunpei who was about to ask the same thing. The black hair man was looking at the boy with serious eyes, there was almost no sparkles of joy in his eyes like usual. This made Syunpei had chills all over his body. He pondered by himself before speaking out the right words. If he took the wrong step here, there was no point of turning back. He carefully picked his words before sending out his voice to Hajime. "Well... Yesterday's a thing, I guess. But other than that-"
"I guess he's right." Hajime cut him off before he could continue. He seemed to be sighing, and it was not a normal sigh. The breath he released was a breath of guilt. Who told him what exactly? This question ran through Syunpei's head. Did something happened last night? Was it because of him? Or was it about him? Ask after ask appear before the middle schooler's mind. He did not have the courage to say anything since Hajime was making a serious face. They said if an adult was serious, he really meant it. He drank the ice blended coffee that Hajime had bought for him sip by sip, and with every sip his heart felt heavy. He could not stand to see the devil who had made fun of him put on such a depress expression, he felt it was wrong. This was not right. "It's okay! I'm fine now right?! So why are you so worried?! Is it about me working?! Then, I'll take the job as a challenge!" Syunpei said as he slammed the table, surprising Hajime who was lost in his own train of thoughts. Some people around them witnessed the incident and shocked as well. Soft whispers could be heard surrounding their ears. The leaders of Six Gravity absentmindedly stare at Syunpei, not knowing how to respond to that. The reason he wanted to see him was to fire him after all, even though he was not completely hired. After hearing everything from Kakeru, he felt the need to let him go. He could not stand the fact that he made him cry. He could not bear the heavy feeling inside his heart. However, hearing Syunpei said all that lifted it up. His heart never felt so light, he was grateful. But why? Why would he felt that? Why did he felt glad that the kid said all that? Was his heart really that of the devil? He thought it through what it was, and found it out as soon as he looked into the brown shining eyes in front of him. The brown hair boy courageously stood up and pointed at him saying, "If anything happens, you'll take responsibility. Only when I'm at work, never outside of it. Got it?" Hajime found it amusing and laugh it out. No, it was more like he was relieved. He was happy to hear that from him. He was... Different. He thought as he could not wipe off his stupid grin on his face. Syunpei felt triggered by this and told him to stop. He even went to the other side of the table, pulled his sleeves and shaked him to stop his uncontrollable laugh. Suddenly, Hajime hugged Syunpei, taking him into his arms as tightly as he could. The boy that suffocated by his sudden embrace was embarrassed at first, but then he felt it became warmer and warmer. He felt comfortable being in this position. I won't let anyone hurt you, especially myself. The black hair man held him gentler and closer, having one of his hands caressed the middle schooler's soft brown hair. The giggles from those around them made Syunpei realized what happened was not normal. He pushed Hajime away and pulled down his hat, hiding his flustered face. "W-well, I need to go home before my sister gone mad. S-see ya." Before he could step out of the cafe, Hajime stopped him by reminding him about his job. "You'll start tomorrow. A man never goes back on his words right? Think you can handle it?" He said as he put his hands into his pockets, acting cool like he usually did. Putting a smile on his face, the kid did the same thing and stated his oath. "Just watch me! You'll be surprised!"
