(Same Night)
The men were all leaving the office, still in contemplation at the thought of an agreement.
"So... how do we..." Syo started to ask, but didn't know how to finish.
Natsuki decided to finally voice his own thoughts. "I do believe that if we all love Haru-Chan, then perhaps an... agreement can be found. I know that I love her deeply. Now that the President has abolished the 'No-Love' rule, I plan to purse her with my whole being. I know all of you will as well."
Tokiya nodded in agreement and said. "Just because we are allowed to openly love her now does not mean we should push her. Nanami-San will need to adjust to the idea. Until she can be more comfortable with the all of this, we must do our best to ease her gently into our feelings. Her own feelings must be in a torrent now. We must put her first through this all." He finished with a deep sigh thinking about the situation ahead. As the others nodded in agreement.
"We should all become more comfortable with the idea of being able to be open with her as well. As Ichinose said we must do this gently. Nanami-San is a woman of deep emotion. We must all remember to treat her with the respect and devotion she deserves. Remember she is a person, not a prize...That being said we should try to remember to resolve any issues we have with the situation, between us as men, and not drag her into it. That could turn out very badly." Masato said sagely. In truth, he still wasn't exactly comfortable with the ideas proposed earlier, but for Haruka... he could get used to it.
The dark headed actor, Ren, decided to offer some advice to his younger...friends. 'Huh, I guess we are becoming friends now' he thought.
"I'm going to give you all some advice, as a man and friend who's been in love for a while, and been trying to win Kyoko's heart. Nanami-San seems to be a lot like her, so perhaps something I say may help..." he paused seeing he had attention of all 11 men involved. "The first step to making her comfortable with you is just to be there to listen. I know you all probably think you've done this, but it's time to really step it up. Let her know she can always come to you about anything, for any reason. Secondly, you do need to break down the wall of formality most of you still have. Most of you still call her by her last name, but a woman needs to feel comfortable calling you by your first name. Slowly start using her name, get her used to hearing you call her that way. Start setting up a familiar atmosphere. Although your situation is... unique.. do not let jealousy get the better of any of you. If you are really set on doing the best for her, or being with her all at the same time, then you will all have to become comfortable with each of the others spending time with, and perhaps some day touching her. You don't know how her heart may direct her in the end. I want you all prepared for that." He finally ended.
"Ara, but don't you still call Mogami-San by her last name Ren-senpai? She also calls you by the same." Otoya questioned innocently.
The actor twitched yet again at the reminder.
"Yes, you're right. I'll have to take my own advice and fix that won't I?" He answers.
All of Haruka's would be suitors glanced at each other. None could fault Ren's reasoning. In that moment, they all realized that any decision made would be a make or break turning point.
Luckily they all thought the same thing. 'Could we all really have her? Would she accept us all? If that's what I have to accept to be with her, then I will accept it.'
All minds were interrupted from their thoughts, by the clearing of a female's throat.
Kyoko Mogami stood there looking at all the men.
Ren's face turned deathly pale at the thought of what she could have overheard.
"Mogami-San. How long have you been there?" The actor asked, trying his hardest to act like he hadn't been mentioning his love for her a moment ago.
'Oh Damn'
All the other men looked between the two, with the same thought in mind.
Kyoko tilted her head in question. "I just walked this way, I was actually coming to find you Tsur..."
Before she could finish her statement, the dark headed actor interrupted her. He decided now was the best time to start the ball rolling in his favor.
"Kyoko...I'm going to start calling you by your first name... Kyoko...so please start just calling me Ren. Don't be so formal anymore, I'll start thinking you don't want to be.." he paused before he finished, he really wanted to say lovers, or in a relationship, but just continued on, "...friends. Then I'd start questioning if I was a bad friend and senpai. I'm not a bad one am I, Kyoko?" Ren said in his most seductive tone softly. After what he overheard earlier, and the red headed singer's question, he decided to start pushing closer to her every chance he got. He would finally show her that he loved her too.
Kyoko stood in shock, the emperor of the night was staring at her, while all the males in audience thought 'Smooth one Ren! Although he's being kind of slick about manipulating it.'
"Of course not Tsur... um...I mean Ren-San! I would never refuse your friendship! You could never be bad at anything Ts... Ren-San." Kyoko finished with a blush.
While the darker headed Ren thought, 'I will someday soon show you how good I can be at everything.'
The blonde Ren, of Starish, did his best not to make a comment about the actress's last sentence, once he saw the gaze his dark headed counterpart leveled at the girl.
'My oh my, that man is bold indeed.'
"Kyoko-chan was there something you were going to ask Ren?" Yashiro asked, all the while repressing feelings of excitement at the development. The president would be estatic! He simply must call him later and tell him of today's events.
Kyoko startled as if realizing he was there.
"Ah, yes Yashiro-San, I came to get my overnight bag from...Ren-San. I was going to get it and then get ready for the sleepover with all my friends!" She said excitedly.
All the sudden she burst out in her demon aura and glanced toward Starish and Quartet Night.
Ren and Yashiro just gulped at the look, that luckily wasn't directed to them.
"And you...gentlemen...need to be prepared. We have all discussed things with Haruka, for now she's processing, but she still needs time. That being said just because you're all allowed to pursue her now, don't think it will be easy. Moko, Tomo, and I are going to protect our friend from being hurt. We have convinced her to spend time with each of you at her own pace, to see who she may have the deepest feelings for. If you hurt her, I will curse you all." Kyoko finished darkly.
All the idols could only sweatdrop at the actress, but not wanting to make it harder on themselves they nodded. None felt it appropriate to bring up the possible polygamy agreement.
"Mogami-San, thank you for taking care of Nanami-San. We swear that we all will do our best to give her time to adjust, while still trying to earn her heart." Masato said to the actress.
'Smooth my young friend.' Thought the dark headed Ren to himself.
Before Kyoko could reply another feminine voice was heard calling out. "Kyoko, did you get lost? Have you found Tsuruga-San?"
All the men froze as the other ginger headed female came around the corner looking for her friend.
'Well this may get awkward' thought the blonde Ren.
"Oh Haruka, yes I found Ren-San, I was just going to run to his car and get my bag. I'll meet all of you upstairs! Don't start without me!" Kyoko replied with a panicked look at Haruka, she didn't realize she had been gone so long. She knew Haruka was still adjusting to the earlier announcement, and was hoping she would have time to adjust, before meeting the men pursuing her again.
'Too late to keep her from seeing them now!' She thought.
Haruka didn't reply, all she could do is freeze looking at the men in front of her. She didn't feel ready to see them so soon after the meeting that she had been dragged from earlier.
"Nanami-San, why don't I bring Kyoko's bag to your room? Yukito and I need to grab our overnight bags as well. You ladies can go ahead and start your sleepover." The dark headed Ren said, he was hoping to give the girls an excuse to leave the room.
"Heh? Tsuruga-San, you and Yashiro-San are staying all well?!" Haruka exclaimed.
She was happy for the distraction from the other men in the room.
Kyoko looked a bit shocked too, but then thought of something else. She looked up at her secret (not so secret) love with a hard edge to her expression.
"By the way Ren-San..." she trailed off and Ren froze. He knew what was coming.
Yashiro thought fast and answered before she could ask.
"Kyoko-Chan, don't worry. Ren ate three meals today. Especially the lunch you made for him. We had a dinner bento at the photo shoot. Starish and Quartet Night can confirm it."
The other men were busy watching Haruka, but still nodded to Kyoko.
They figured if he was willing to help by giving them advice, they could soothe Kyoko's worries for him.
"Oh! That's good Ren-San. I'm always worried that you don't eat right because you're so busy. I don't want you getting sick again." Kyoko beamed.
Haruka lifted an eyebrow at her friend. 'She has him wrapped around her little finger, and doesn't realize it. I'm sure that man has deep feelings for her. Plus, when did they start using first names? I'm happy for you Kyoko!'
Ren just sighed in relief to himself. He did not want Kyoko angry at him again for his eating habits, even if it had been a good excuse to spend time with her.
"Haruka let's go back and get ready, nee?" Kyoko turned to Haruka to start herding her back upstairs.
Haruka was almost back around the corner but stopped with a thought.
"Kyoko, we need to go to the kitchen first! We have to grab..." she glanced briefly at the men in the room, seeing their attention was still directed to them, and whispered the last part "...some more wine glasses, and wine. Plus, we need all of our snacks and things for watching videos. Tomo and Kanae wanted us to watch something called a BTS fanfic on YouTube." Kyoko just nodded, she'd never heard of a fanfic either. She was sure the two older girls wouldn't steer them wrong.
"We'll be going everyone, come on Haruka let's go to the kitchen. Ren-San, just ask one of the others where to bring my bag. I'm sure they all are aware of where her room is." Kyoko said with a sly grin at the other men, as she grabbed Haruka's hand to pull her along. All of them blushed in embarrassment.
Luckily, they were still in the clear about eavesdropping earlier. Neither of the two women were aware that they had actually been outside her room earlier. They didn't want any of the female's wrath turned upon them. All of the men shuddered at the thought.
Once the two girls were out of the room, the cyan haired idol, Ai, became pensive at the overheard whispers.
The other three Quartet Night members saw the look. Reji, being curious, decided to ask him about it.
"What's wrong Ai-Ai? You have a strange look on your face?"
Ai looked up to see all of the other males eyes directed at him.
"Haruka whispered to Kyoko about fanfics. Also, something about wine, and the older girls wanting them to all watch these 'fanfics' together." He paused while his internal system processed the information on YouTube fanfics. What he came up with left him a bit flustered.
"Ai-Chan?..." Natsuki questioned.
"According to my data, the 'fanfics' they were discussing are fan made stories. Usually centered around idols or anime characters. The two mentioned BTS, all YouTube fanfics on that group seem to be sexual in nature. Similar to erotica books, but with moving pictures and sound." Ai finished in his normally flat voice.
"What? Do those two understand that?" Ranmaru asked in irritation at the explanation.
"According to what I overheard, no the two do not." Ai answered rather blandly.
The blonde headed Ren began to smile as he said out loud, "So our little fox and her friends...are going to be drinking wine, while watching videos that portray sexual fantasies involving idols? Oh my, the lady is becoming more grown up than I had imagined." He finished with a sexy laugh at the thought of Haruka watching the videos.
"ARE YOU SERIOUS? What the hell? Why would Nanami watch those?" Syo ranted.
Masato blushed.
Tokiya's gaze became dark. He didn't think Haruka was ready for exposure to those kind of things. He was hoping to expose her to sexually natured things himself. Not in videos, but in real life, behind closed doors.
Otoya laughed nervously at the situation.
Cecil questioned the group. "Should we go stop them?"
"No." Tokiya answered darkly. Oh how he wanted to, but that would complicate the situation at hand.
Camus tried to be dignified but suddenly burst. "My woman is going to be watching smut videos of other men? She is entirely too innocent to understand!"
No one commented on his claims of Haruka being 'his' woman.
The dark headed actor had been quiet the whole time, but his thoughts about Kyoko ran along the same lines.
The blonde headed Ren decided to add fuel to the fire that was already raging. "It would seem that our shy little lady... may very soon become a little vixen. Perhaps this is a good thing. She will start to experience the feeling of desire. That should make our plans easier. If these videos help her to awaken to sexual desire for a man, then I'm all for it."
All the men in the room sent frosty looks in his direction.
"Get those thoughts out of your head Jinguji! Nanami-San is pure, those kinds of videos are not for her pure mind." Masato said to the room, while still glaring at his childhood friend.
Not being able to leave it alone, the blonde had to push again.
"Ah, but aren't we all planning on sweeping our lady off her feet? Someday in the future we'll be doing more with the little fox than even those videos can describe. If this all works out, the little lady won't stay virginal and innocent. One of us will be the one to make her a woman for real, and the others will drive her wild with ecstasy. Don't tell me none of you have realized that."
Everyone froze at that. Even the actor did, although for a completely different reason. He could see this discussion was about to turn on its head.
"Yes, someone will be her...first..." Otoya trailed off, with a gulp.
'We never thought of who would be the first to be with her!'
"That is another problem with this potential arrangement. We can't all rave like beasts after her virginity. We will have to let Nanami-San decide that on her own." Tokiya said,not noticing his roommate stare at him with hostility.
"I don't know why you're so concerned. You have a very big chance of being her first. You were her reason for joining the academy after all, or did you forget that she was a HAYATO fan? Meaning your fan? Even during our days at the academy she always looked at you with a dreamy expression. She was always so happy when she mentioned 'HAYATO-SAMA' this and that! Always saying she hoped to compose for her 'precious HAYATO-SAMA'
someday! She would always seek you out, like during selection time. I saw you alone on the beach with her. Such a romantic scene, alone on the beach, with the sun rising in the background. You even had her help you keep secrets from us." The normally cheerful Otoya said darkly.
Masato fired back at the red head. "You may also be her first pick. You were close to her from the beginning, from the day of the exam in fact! You came in and championed her cause to be admitted. You were her first composition partner, you were always with her. I know you followed her that day she sat alone in the rain. Speaking softly to her, and easing her troubles. Then, during the summer trip you were the first to openly seek her out, and declare her your choice for partnership. You watched over her before we all came to know her as well. We could all tell your love for her from that first song. Nanami-San probably could as well."
"Oooh ho, but didn't you come in like a knight in shining armor multiple times? First, you swooped in so coolly and saved her from Natsuki's over zealous physical affection. They you sought her out, alone, when she froze trying to play piano, after being targeted by the rest of your class? That must have really struck a chord deep in her heart. I'm sure during your times alone, sitting in front of the piano with her, there was 'accidental' hand caressing. Maybe more? Hmm? Like leaning close to her, and whispering sweet reassurances to her. Maybe more than assurances were whispered? Perhaps you were setting yourself up to take her heart then? I saw you two standing by the lake together that day. I knew then you had already fallen for her. Was she perhaps the lady in mind during that audition? Were you thinking of her falling into your 'passionate embrace'?" The blonde Ren poked at Masato, even though he was jealous. He just couldn't help but egg the situation on.
"You did what with Haru-Chan?" Natsuki said, his expression becoming more Satsuki like. Everyone just ignored him.
"Any touch of hands was accidental, and any 'assurances' were said respectfully. I won't deny that she had taken my heart at that point, or that she was my imagined partner for the audition. I had planned on doing my one year of study, that my former father allowed. Then after that I had, in fact, planned to pursue her for marriage. I already had my family's approval of her by the point we debuted. My father was set to speak to her grandmother about arranging it." Masato grated out.
All movement in the room froze at the implication of what their friend said.
"You bastard! You never revealed any of this before! Did you really think we all wouldn't have fought you for her, even to the point of breaking the rules, just to keep her with us?!" Syo said as he leapt at Masato.
Seeing the situation get out of hand the actor decided to jump into action. He grabbed the small blonde from the air, and slammed him to the ground. His Kain Heel persona almost breaking the surface.
All movement in the room ceased again at the normally gentlemen like actor's speed.
"This is EXACTLY what I was talking about earlier! You are poking at a very fragile situation. Yes you all love her, but you're already starting to forget yourselves! I told you all that jealously will not help you. If the woman you are trying to win sees this, then you may very well lose your chances before you can even begin, it could very well break her heart, and scare her off!" Ren stated very harshly. He felt that if Kyoko was willing to protect the girl, then as a the man that loved her, he would protect her friend too. Plus, there was something about that girl, something familiar, and he didn't want to see her hurt.
They all looked downcast at the words directed at them. They knew it would be hard, and were still not fully prepared for the things to come.
"Haruka will make her choice...all we can do accept it. Whomever the choice may be, having any chance of being with her is better than watching someone else take her away completely. Whoever is picked to be her first must do his upmost to be gentle. We don't want her scared of the physical side of a relationship. The first man will set the tone for all her experiences after that." Cecil spoke very quietly.
All the men nodded. When the dark headed man saw that things had calmed down, he pulled back into himself and released Syo.
"I still don't like the underhandedness, but we now have an equal chance with her. We're all going to have to be honest with each other, beginning this moment. If any of you are planning to try and take her away again, I will forget any arrangement that we may come to, and fight to make her mine only." Syo said stonily as he sat up from the floor.
"Then we all agree that everyone will try to make this work, for kouhai-Chan's sake?" Reji said. Even though it came out as a question, there was a note of forcefulness to the statement. Everyone understood that no answer was needed.
All the men just nodded, before slowly continuing on their way to the men's dorm, all agreed to meet by the day room. Ren still had to take Kyoko's bag to her. Ren and Yashiro went to his car to get all three overnight bags.
"Do you think they're going to be able to work it out?" Said Yashiro to Ren with a hint of worry.
"If they all love her enough, they will have to." Was all that he could say back.
He did hope for that girl's sake that it did work out.
(With the girls)
Unaware of the storm brewing down stairs, the two ginger haired girls had just made it back to Haruka's room.
Haruka herself was still quite subdued, especially after having run into the 11 men that were currently pursuing her.
'Thank god it was only them down there, I don't think I could've dealt with the other 9 being there too.' Haruka thought to herself. Little did she know, the three presidents had a plan that would break that peace soon. How unfortunate that she hadn't stayed for the arrival of the third president.
"Haruka are you feeling ok?" Kyoko asked as she opened the door to their room for the night. At the sound of the door, and her question, Tomo and Kanae both looked up.
"Mou, did something happen again? Those morons didn't start chasing you already did they?" Kanae asked. She was irritated at the thought of the poor girl's peace being broken so soon.
The composer looked at the dark headed girl, and shook her head as she set down the wine glasses they had picked up, while Kyoko set the wine bottle down beside the glasses. She had been so lost in thought, and barely registered that they had arrived back at her room.
"Well we didn't hear anything blow up, or break, so probably not." Tomo tried to joke.
Haruka still didn't respond, still too lost in her thoughts.
Kyoko decided she'd explain the situation to the other two. "Actually, she came to find me. I just happened to have found Ren-San with the others. I guess Haruka was kind of shocked to see them so soon."
'Although I don't blame her.'
'Ren-San? Not Tsuruga-San? So that man has finally made some type of progress' both girls thought, having stayed behind in the room. They were not there to witness the earlier events.
Haruka remembered about hearing the difference earlier and gave into curiosity, at least to distract herself.
"Kyoko, when did you start calling him Ren?"
"Oh? That? Well...he asked me to start calling him by that. He said that I would make him feel like a bad friend and senpai if I couldn't be comfortable calling him by his first name. I didn't want him to think I was unthankful for everything he's done for me. How could I refuse?" Kyoko explained with a blush.
'I just bet he did.' Tomo thought.
'Smooth move playboy.' Thought Kanae at the same time. She was a little miffed at that man. She wasn't going to give up her best friend so easily. 'Ho, ho. We'll see how long it takes you Tsuruga. Although I'm happy she's falling in love, don't think I'll make it easy on you.'
"So anyway, let's forget the drama for now. Don't we have a sleepover to start? I see we have the important things. We are all present and accounted for. There's the wine and snacks. Kanae and I have already set up the TV for YouTube. Have I missed anything?" Tomo said gleefully as she listed each item off on her fingers.
The two ginger girls looked at one another, they were questioning the tone of the red heads voice. Thinking nothing of it, both gingers nodded. They also didn't notice the glint in their dark headed friend's eyes.
"Then I say we all get changed into our pajamas. Wait.. Kyoko where's your bag?" Kanae asked.
"Ren-San said he'd bring it up. Apparently he and Yashiro-San are also spending the night. He was giving us an excuse to leave the room, for Haruka's sake." Kyoko replied cheerfully.
"Ah, ok... I guess that works." The dark headed girl said in answer.
Tomo just nodded her head.' Perhaps this will work to our advantage. He will have to have one of the guys show him the way.'
"So who wants to go change first? How about you Haruka? Here, these are your clothes for the night." Tomo said as she pushed a bundle of clothes into her friend's hands, and pushed her out the door, shutting it behind the other girl. She was sure the plan would be ok.
"Why are you in such a rush for Haruka to get changed?" Kyoko asked. "And those didn't look like the clothes she had set out." She finished as she noticed said pajamas still setting out where Haruka left them earlier.
Kanae and Tomo smiled at each other. They forgot Kyoko wasn't in on their plan.
Kanae decided to explain, before things got out of hand. Kyoko sometimes got strange ideas into her head. "Tomo and I decided to give Haruka a slight push, considering the current situation. From what Tomo has told us, and from what I've seen, Haruka is still not aware of herself as a woman. With all those men being open to pursue her now, we felt it best to start helping her see her own appeal as a woman. She needs confidence in herself to face what's coming. We want her to make her choice with surety. This is just a step in the right direction."
Kyoko looked confused still.
"We decided a change of wardrobe was needed. She can't keep playing it safe with things anymore. She going to have to become comfortable in her own skin. Therefore, Kanae and I switched out her usual clothes for more... adult alternatives." Tomo added.
Kyoko nodded. "I see... don't you think that they're may have been a better way? She's not going to like this."
"She'll be fine." Both replied.
(Haruka)
'When did Tomo push me out the door?'
She didn't think any more of it and just shrugged, and walked to the bathroom down the hall. She never thought to look at the clothes in her hand, never thinking that her oldest girl friend would be sneaky.
Stepping into the bathroom, Haruka decided to take a quick shower before getting dressed for bed. Taking all of her clothes off, she folded them neatly and laid them on the counter. She still didn't notice anything suspicious about the dark burgundy night wear Tomo had given her.
Once she had walked to the shower, and turned the knobs to her desired temperature, she stepped in and let the water soothe her.
'This has been a strange day. I can't believe the president abolished the 'No-Love' rule. Honestly how does he expect me to pick a specific person? And what did they mean 'experience love with all of my suitors?' Haruka wondered.
Being so deep in thought, she missed the sound of the bathroom door opening. Tomo tiptoed in and grabbed the clothes setting on the counter. She of course left the night clothes she had prepared. She felt a little bad about the trickery she was about to play, but she felt it was for the best. Haruka would have to step out of her comfort zone eventually.
As quietly as possible Tomo exited the bathroom and shut the door. She knew Haruka wouldn't think to lock it, being that she was the only person to ever be on this floor of the dorms. This just made the plan all that much easier for her.
"Ok girls, we need to set up the second part of the plan. Lucky for us, I had already bought and hid a new wardrobe for her. We'll have to be quick. Let's go and switch out the clothes in her closet, with all of the 'confident' Haruka clothes." Tomo whispered to the other two waiting for her outside.
Kyoko still looked uncomfortable at this, but if it would help Haruka, she would see this plan through.
Kanae just nodded. Tomo and her felt it best not to mention that Kyoko would be receiving the same treatment later.
'If we can pull this off, both of these girls will be better off. It's time for both of them to get the love they desire and deserve.'
With that thought Kanae fell in step with Tomo and Kyoko to enact their plan.
(After shower with Haruka)
Haruka still being unaware of the plan unfolding stepped out of the shower.
She walked over to the counter to put on her night clothes. As her hand touched the fabric, she finally noticed something strange.
'WHAT IS THIS? This isn't what I picked out to wear! There must have been a mistake.'
She quickly picked up the silky material. All she saw was burgundy and black lace. The nightwear in question was dangerously low cut into a deep V at top, with black lace running the edge of the chest area. It would show well past her breatbone. The bottom part was black lace overlaid on the burgundy silk under it, and embarrassingly short. This would barely cover an underwear she would wear. Hoping this was a mix up she decided to just wear her day clothes back to her room. 'WAIT? Where are they?' The ginger haired girl finally noticed the missing clothes. Quickly grabbing her phone she called Tomo.
"Haruka, why are you calling when you're just down the hall?" Tomo answered. She had to be thankful she was a professional idol and could keep her tone even.
"TOMO-CHAN, I can't find my clothes, and I think there was a mix up with my nightwear!" Haruka said in desperation as she held up the nightgown in front of her.
"Oh that? I thought I'd go ahead and take your clothes to the wash for you. The night wear is an early birthday gift. What? Don't you like it? I'm sorry Haruka, I thought it would look so beautiful on you." Tomo said in pretend sadness.
Haruka froze for a moment and felt guilty. Oh she must have hurt Tomo's feelings.
"No Tomo. I love it! I'll wear it! Thank you for thinking of me and doing the wash for me. I was momentarily panicked, I didn't know what had happened to my other clothes. I'll be there in a moment."
With that she hung up and sighed. 'Oh well, it can't be too bad. It'll just be us girls tonight. It may be fun to try a new outfit anyway. These clothes do feel nice too. I've never worn anything like it. Now let's hope there was underwear with it.' While searching the rest of the pile she noticed Tomo had included sheer stockings in black with lace tops, and underwear. The underwear was shocking. Sheer black lace panties, but they looked like noting she's ever owned. 'Is this a thong?!" Just as she started to panic again, she noticed the solid burgundy silk robe that came with it. 'Well at least this will cover me.'
With that in mind Haruka slowly slipped into the thong, and then pulled the stocking on, both felt strange to her. After that she slipped the silk nightwear on. She couldn't help but notice how incredible the silk and lace felt against her naked skin. She glanced at herself in the mirror and admired how the color really did compliment her skin tone and hair.
'Tomo is so thoughtful. This does look nice, and feels incredible!'
After a moment of admiring her reflection she decided she'd do her hair for bed for once. She grabbed her ginger locks, luckily they had grown past her shoulders in the last few years, and decided to braid them loosely in reverse. Starting at the bottom of her head, and leading to the middle, until she finished right below the crown of her head. She set it in place with a few hair pins. She was reminded of how her hair was done the night she accompanied Camus-senpai to his performance for the opening of Shining Tower.
All in all she felt very mature and beautiful for once.
'I must surely thank Tomo for this gift.'
Realizing she had taken longer than she meant to, she grabbed the robe and slipped it on, she saw no reason to tie it closed.
With that she slipped out the bathroom door, she walked quietly to her room to let the other girls know the bathroom was open.
(Day Room)
All singers were present, they had all returned to the day room to meet up with the actor and his manager. All were in their sleep wear.
Ren and Yashiro had also changed into night clothes.
"Remind me again why we're showing him the way. He should know where the room is now." Asked Otoya. He still was a bit moody after the earlier blow up.
Everyone else facepalmed. They felt that an explanation wasn't necessary. Though they decided it was best to point out the obvious.
"Fool, he's not supposed to already know where the woman's room is. They still do not have any idea we were present outside earlier." Camus said in his usual way.
"Yes, if he was suddenly able to find her room alone, the ladies may become suspicious. We wouldn't want it anger such hot blooded maidens." Ren Jinguji stated.
"Hot blooded maidens?" Masato shook his head, but chose not to give the resident pervert anymore ammunition to tease them all with.
"Ah yeah, Nanami-San is quite scary when angry. I'm sure the other three are as well." Tokiya added. Sadly he so far had only ever been the one to receive her anger. Although it ran cold, it was still a frightening thing.
"Kyoko-Chan is quite scary too, as well as Kanae-San." Yashiro recalled in fear of both actress's tempers.
'And all four of these women are friends now?' All men thought with a cold shiver.
Though Tomochica was a wild card where temperament was concerned. None wanted to risk the oldest red heads temper either. Especially considering they were trying to win her best friend's heart as one. All assumed it was better safe than sorry.
They all sweat dropped as they imagined the apocalyptic scene four angry women could cause.
"Hai, hai, hai everyone!" Shouted Ringo as he walked in the room, with the orange haired Hyuuga. For once Ringo was not in drag.
"Rin-Chan? Why aren't you dressed like a woman?" Asked Natsuki innocently.
Ringo smiled secretly and replied with confidence, in his true masculine voice. "I decided that since we can all love Haruka freely now, it was time to show myself as the man I truly am, around her at least. I will still be the famous cross dressing Rin-Chan, in public of course."
Ringo certainly was pretty when dressed as a woman, but as a man he was exceptionally good looking. Gone was the long pink wig and make up. In front of all the idols stood a young pink haired man, dressed in loose blue plaid night pants, and a black muscle shirt. He was much better built than they all realized. Looking the way he did now, they all realized how close to their age he really was. No one really thought of his earlier confession of having love for Haruka till this moment.
'Great. Just great! Another pretty boy after Haruka.' Thought Cecil.
'What the hell?'
They all stared at someone they had known forever, and felt like they never really knew.
"So Ringo you've come to accompany us to drop off Kyoko-Chan's bag?" Yashiro asked with a gleam from behind his glasses. Things just became even more interesting by the moment.
"Yes we have both decided to accompany you. We wouldn't want anyone to get any bright ideas about the situation, now would we gentlemen." Hyuuga finally added to the conversation.
Syo's eye twitched at his idol laying out an obvious challenge to the younger group.
"Of course not Hyuuga-San. Let's not keep Kyoko and her friends waiting." Ren Tsuruga said, trying to hide a twitch of amusement. This group was for sure good for drama. He was almost thankful that Kyoko had led him here.
"Alright everyone! Off to Haru-Chan's room we go!" Natsuki piped up happily.
"Yes let's not spoil Kouhai-Chan's fun girls night by making her wait." Reji said.
All the men still being at a loss of words, turned as one to drop off the actress's bag.
(Hallway)
Haruka had just set out from the bathroom in her more mature nightwear. She realized that she had forgotten her phone in said bathroom. Not thinking to look where she was going, she turned to get her phone.
Before she could take another step, she crashed into something hard. Gasping in shock at having come in contact, with what she thought was a wall, she reached out to grab onto the object in front of her.
Instead of her hand meeting the wall she expected, she instead grabbed onto cloth, and felt warmth radiate from it.
Before she could collect her thoughts, she felt more warmth encircling her waist as she fell backwards. Preparing for a hard landing, she kept her eyes shut.
The feeling of falling was different as she felt herself being turned the opposite way. She suddenly landed on something that was definitely not the floor, and opened her eyes.
She froze once again, as she looked below her and saw Tokiya on the floor under her.
Then she heard other voices calling her name in the back ground.
"Haruka/Haru-Chan/Nanami/Nanami-San/Lady/Nanami/Woman/Haruka/Kouhai-Chan/Nanami!!"
With a slow turn, she glanced behind her to see all other members of Starish, Quartet Night, Ren Tsuruga, Yashiro, male Ringo, and Hyuuga staring at her open mouthed.
She once again turned to the man under her. She finally realized the position she fell in. Her legs were spread out on either side of his hips. His crotch was lined up perfectly with hers.
If that wasn't enough, she finally realized what she was wearing. She was too shocked at the situation to move.
Tokiya looked up at the beauty, who was now on top of him in a way he had dreamed of before, wearing something he'd never imagined he'd ever see her in. Before he could stop himself he said something.
"Haruka, we really must stop meeting like this. Although, I'm not adverse to just staying in this position, wouldn't it be better if we were alone. I must say what your wearing is quite fetching." He finished with a hot look at the woman (yes she was definitely that) on top of him, as he reached up and caressed her face.
"KYAAAA!!" Haruka screamed as she unfroze.
"What the fuck is going on here?" Said Kanae as she and the other girls arrived after hearing Haruka scream.
They too froze at the sight that met their eyes. Suddenly Tomo walked over to the couple on the floor, and proceeded to assist her friend up.
"Excuse us!" She said and quickly rushed her friend back to the room.
The two actresses turned to the group of men, all with hungry gazes directed at the fleeing Haruka, except for two of them.
Ren and Yashiro just looked away. They would not be caught in the ensuing storm.
"So anyone care to explain the situation we just witnessed?" Kyoko whispered, trying so hard to hold her temper.
"Yes do explain please... Remember to choose your next words carefully." Kanae also said dangerously.
Tokiya was still on the floor, too shocked at himself, and the absurdity of the situation to explain.
The actor figured he'd have the best chance of stopping another blow up.
"It was all a complete accident. Nanami-San bumped into Tokiya-san and he caught her before she could fall. He made sure to flip their bodies around so he could keep her from hurting herself on the floor."
The other men just nodded like bobble heads. Most didn't even realize what was being said, but at that moment they couldn't care. They all still had a clear picture in mind of what their beautiful woman had been wearing.
"I...See..." Said Kanae.
Kyoko's expression went back to normal.
"Oh, that was all? That was a good thing Ichinose-San broke her fall. I'm sure Haruka will think so too."
She walked over to Ren Tsuruga and took her bag gently out of his hands.
"Thank you Ren-San. We'll be going now. Thank you guys for taking care of him." She finished saying to all the men, then grabbed Kanae with a starry expression. "Come on Moko-san, now I can change and we can start our sleepover."
"But..Kyoko..." the men heard Kanae reply as she was dragged away by her best friend.
Once all females were out of hearing distance, everyone turned to Tokiya as a whole. He still hadn't gotten off the floor. The singers, Ringo, and Hyuuga looked at him with dark expressions.
"So what was that about Ichi?" Blonde Ren asked. While he had encouraged all the others to think of Haruka as a woman, Ichi had pulled something he would never had expected.
"TO-KI-YA!" Syo growled out.
"What the hell did you say to Haru-chan?" Satsuki said through Natsuki's mouth.
"Tokiya where the hell did that come from?" Otoya whined in anger.
"Ichinose!!" Was all the rest could say.
"Shit, I don't know what came over me. I don't know why I said... actually forget it. I know exactly why I said what I said. She was on top of me, in the least amount of clothing I've ever seen her in. The woman I love... was looking down at me, in a way I had only ever dreamed of." Tokiya replied, he was trying very hard at the moment to calm himself down.
"Toki, you were quite bold. Let's hope that Haruka doesn't get scared away." Ringo said with a sigh.
Hyuuga still wanted to throttle the younger man for having taken a liberty, that he himself would have been happy to use. "What's done is done. With everything else that happened, I suppose it's to be expected we would all lose some common sense." He just hoped saying that diffused the tension in the hallway.
"Ichinose, I do believe you will owe Nanami-San an apology later on. If you can even get her to speak to you again." Masato said. Oh how he secretly wished he had his friend's kind of luck.
"Ok everyone, I do believe on that note, it's best if we all head to our rooms for the night, and no late night wandering to...certain...women's rooms. Let's just remember we all have an agreement." Reji said, he turned to leave with his band mates following behind him.
By this time Tokiya had gotten himself up from the floor, and walked as calmly as he could to the end of the hall.
No one was really satisfied with what had just happened, but nothing else could be done.
So everyone else finally gave up being stubborn and proceeded to their own rooms.
Ren and Yashiro followed along behind.
All the males knew that tomorrow would be awkward. Especially considering the dream material 11 of them had for consideration tonight.
No one would be sleeping peacefully tonight.
