Hi guys! I'm just letting you know that this chapter will be a short one. The story is getting closer and closer to being finish! Well I hope you will like this chapter!!!!!
Shuichi was in the lounge room for about ten minutes until Yuki and Tohma finally came out of Tohma's office. Shuichi looked expectantly at Yuki. Tohma smiled at Shuichi. "It looks like we'll be getting to know each other." Shuichi's eyes went wide and he had a surprised look on his face. "R-really? You mean it? You don't mind?" Shuichi looked extremely grateful, but then he looked down at the floor and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry if I'm so much trouble."
"It's no trouble at all, Shuichi," Tohma said kindly, "it's not your fault. Yuki explained everything to me, and as long you are with me while your parents are gone, this boy wont hurt you." Shuichi smiled at Tohma and said, "Thank you very much." Tohma smiled and told Shuichi their plans.
"Okay, each day after school Yuki will bring you, Suguru, and your friend Hiro by here, and when its time to leave work, you'll come with me to my place."
"Wow, thanks very much, but why will Hiro and Suguru becoming with us?"
"Well, Suguru Fujisaki is my little cousin." Shuichi looked surprise. Suguru never told me that! I wonder why? "You mean to tell me," Shuichi began, "that all this time Suguru has been related to you and knew about this studio, and he didn't even tell me or Hiro. Even though he's just as serious about the band as I am?!" Tohma laughed, but answered Shuichi's question. "It was for your benefit, I assure you. Suguru has told me about you band countless of times, and has asked me to listen to you three play, but I've told him that I'll listen to you play after you three finish high school." Shuichi look saddened. He didn't even care about school, he only cared about his band and becoming famous. I still have my sophmore year to finish, and two years after that. I CANT WAIT THAT LONG!
"But," Tohma began to speak again, "it looks like I'll be hearing you three play earlier then I thought. I'll give you time to practice here at this studio, then after you three have practice a while, I'll set a audition date. But only on one condition."
"What? Anything?" Shuichi looked like Christmas had came early. Tohma laughed and said, "You have to finish high school." Shuichi groaned when Tohma said that and had a pouty look until he said, "Oh alright, but thank you so much for the offer. We wont let you down, I promise!" Tohma laughed at Shuichi, who was jumping up and down. Finally Yuki spoke up for the first time since they walked out of Tohma's office.
"Come on, Shuichi. I'm going to bring you over to your house so you can pack, then bring you back here."
"Okay!" They left and from there and back Yuki had the misfortune to here Shuichi go on and on about he will be living with the Tohma Seguchi for a week.
The next day Shuichi walked into the cafeteria and sat across from Hiro and Suguru after he got his tray of food. Yuki was sitting beside Shuichi, and Tatsuha was sitting at one of the ends. (A/N: The cafeteria table they're sitting at are round.)
"Guess who I met yesterday, Suguru." Shuichi piped up.
"Who?" Suguru asked, not sounding interested. He looked very comfortable with sitting so close to Hiro, and Hiro had his arm around Suguru. Shuichi smiled and said, "Your cousin…Tohma Seguchi."
"WHAT?!" Suguru yelled, but began to say, "Shuichi, the reason I didn't tell you about Tohma was…" but Shuichi interrupted. "Calm down, calm down. Your cousin told me everything."
"How did you meet him, anyways?" Suguru asked.
"Yuki introduced us."
"How do you know him, Yuki?" Suguru asked, looking confused.
"He's my brother-in-law." Suguru suddenly started choking on the milk he was drinking, and Hiro patted his back. "Mika is your sister?" Suguru asked, looking surprised. Yuki laughed a little and said, "Yeah." It was quiet for a few seconds until Hiro said, "Woah, small world." They all laughed at that.
"So, why did Yuki bring you by there." Hiro asked Shuichi, but Yuki was the one who told them why, but Shuichi said, "Oh, and Yuki will be bringing you two to the studio too and Tohma said we could practice there and after a few days of practicing he said he'll give us a auditon date!" Suguru and Hiro were ecstatic and Suguru said, "Really? He did?" Shuichi laughed and nodded his head. Shuichi was happy the rest of the day. He couldn't wait till they left for the studio and began to practice.
The day was finally over and Shuichi, Hiro, and Suguru all piled up into Yuki's car. (A/N: Tatsuha rode the bus home.) Yuki drove to the studio and they all got out. Tohma was waiting in the lounge when they all went inside and when Suguru saw him; he ran to him and hugged him. "Thank you so much, Tohma!" Tohma laughed but hugged his little cousin back. "Well, you have been telling me about the band a lot, and I couldn't help but be curious." Suguru smiled and hugged him again and Tohma said, "Now, I'd like to meet this boyfriend that Yuki so kindly told me about." Suguru frowned. He knew how protective his cousin was of him, but Hiro stood forward and hold out his hand. "Hiro Nakano." Tohma took his hand and shook it but while squeezing Hiro's hand…hard. Hiro got the message, "Don't hurt my little cousin, or you'll die."
"Tohma Seguchi." Tohma said, he gave Hiro an innocent smile; the smile would probably scare a lot of people.
"Okay, lets go practice." Shuichi suddenly said. The three band members all went into the rehearsal room and began to play. They played for hours until it was time to leave.
"Alright!" Shuichi yelled, "By the time for audition, we'll be perfect!" Shuichi was happy. He hasn't been so happy in a long time. Things are finally looking up!
