Strawberry Mochi

Disclaimer: I don't own Nana or any of the characters.

Synopsis: A Takumi x Hachi x Nobu story. By the way, this is not following the NANA storyline so forgive me. If you're like "BUT! Hachi was with Nobu. And kind of with Takumi in Chapter ." I'm probably going to say "I'm sorry, I'm not following the storyline. Just wait out the story please." So without further ado chapter 2 for your enjoyment.

Chapter 2: A Phone Call

He threw his cell phone against the wall. He never had much control over his anger. It was absurd, preposterous, and completely insane. Or so he told himself. Ren looked at him and smirked.

"Not answering your phone calls?" he asked the bassist.

"She's refusing masked numbers." He mumbled to Ren.

"Did the two lovers get into a spat?" Ren smiled. He knew. He knew that Hachi had been spending more and more time with Nobu, not that he was going to say anything to Takumi. After all, he didn't want to die anytime soon.

"Just a small argument." Takumi grudgedly answered. He picked up the damaged phone he just threw against the wall. "Damn the woman…" he though to himself. Why was it that she could put him in such a horrible mood by not picking up a phone. He got even more frustrated thinking what he thought was stupid thoughts. He grabbed his coat and headed outside with Ren tailing him.

"What do you think you're doing Takumi! We still have to record!" Ren yelled as he tried to catch up with Takumi's fast pace.

"I'm going to talk to her face to face! This is bothering me too much!" He yelled back as he started jogging to his Hummer. Ren was defeated. He didn't know what to think. When was Takumi so reckless over a woman? To Takumi woman were like underwear, something he could change every day. He debated to himself whether or not to tell his Nana of this juicy piece of information. He shook his head. He knew better than that. If Nana knew that Takumi was going to take Hachi away from her, all hell would break loose. He shuddered involuntarily and walked back into the building.

"I should go buy a new cell phone." Takumi thought as he drove to the apartment complex in which Hachi lived. Just thinking of her made his heart fall to his stomach. She always seemed to do that to him to his surprise. He wasn't one to stay with a woman but there was something irresistible about Hachi. Maybe it was her eyes when they made love. The same eyes that would look at him imploringly telling him that she was lost, like him. Before he knew it he was at her apartment complex, on her floor, and in front of her door.

"What should I say to her when she asks me why I'm here?" He asked himself. He was nervous but he'd shoot himself before he'd let Hachi know. After all, he was a rock star and she was but a mere fan girl of his. All of a sudden realization hit him. There was somebody playing the guitar in her apartment. He could only think of one person that would be at the apartment that would be playing a guitar as of now. Nobu. His anger started to rise again. He growled. He heard her giggle through the door.

"No," He thought "She's mine. I set my claim on her." He knocked on the door and the guitar playing ceased and Hachi, grinning from ear to ear, opened the door. Her smile turned to a gasp and a finger point and a "What are you doing here."

"I had a break so I decided to come visit you." he replied as he smoothly ran his fingers through his hair. He looked past her shoulders to his enemy, Nobu who was also in amazement seeing him at the front door.

"Well, are you going to invite me in?" He asked her smoothly.

Author's Notes: I know it's short! Now, you're not portraying Takumi as he is in the manga. I know and I'm sorry but I love the idea that he's so in love with Hachi that he'd be reckless just for a little bit and leave his work for her. We all know how important work is to him but how cute would it be if he left work for Hachi. Until next time, I bid you adieu. Comments and changes would be awesome! And of course loving comments would be even more appreciated! Until the next chapter, sayonara!
