Chapter two: The Meeting…..Again
Yuki leaned back on his chair. In front of him was his laptop with the work of his latest novel on it. He didn't know how he got the inspiration to get it, then he thought of that pink haired vocalist and decided that it was him. He printed off the manuscript, looked it over and put it into a yellow envelope. He placed it onto his desk and decided to wait until his editor arrives to give it to her. He walked out of his study and into his kitchen to make a cup of coffee. When he got his cup he was about to walk to his living and sit down when there was a knock on his door. He walked to the door and opened it, revealing Tohma on the other side. "Do you realize what time it is?" Yuki asked him slightly annoyed.
"I can tell that you have been for a while." Tohma said grinning to him.
"How?" he asked and Tohma pointed to his cup in his hand.
"Well are you going to be a good brother and let me in?" Yuki sighed and moved so that Tohma can get into the apartment. Tohma went to the couch and sat down.
"So what is it you want?"
"I just came by for a visit." Tohma said to him. Yuki knew he was up to something.
"Really what do you want?" Tohma pulled something from his pocket and handed it to Yuki. "What it is?" he asked as he opened the sheets of paper. He paused when he saw what it was about. It had a picture of the pink haired vocalist on the top of the pages and various information about him. Yuki sat down onto the couch.
"His name is Shuichi Shindou, lead vocalist of Bad Luck. He debut was a few months ago yet they are very popular already." Yuki looked from the sheets to his brother.
"Why are you showing me this?"
"Shuichi would like to see you." Yuki had a look of surprise on his face, but quickly changed it.
"He does?" Tohma nodded.
"Yeah, tonight to be exact."
"Tonight!?"
"Yeah at the park." Yuki put the sheets onto the coffee table and folded his arms.
"And you would know this why?"
"Well I am the president of the company he has a contract with." Tohma stood up. "Well I should get going so you can get some sleep tonight." He walked to the door and opened it. "Oh and one more thing, be careful tonight." He said before he left, shutting the door behind him. He picked up the sheets he noticed Shuichi's age. 'Nineteen huh, I wonder what he's got to say. He put the information back onto the table and went to his room to get some sleep, or at least try to.
He woke as the moonlight came through his bedroom window. He got up and took a shower. He walked out of his bathroom an hour later and looked at the time. The clock said that it was 10:30. 'I should get going.' He thought as he walked out of his room. He walked out of his apartment a few minutes later putting on a coat as he walked down the hall. He arrived at the park moments later and went to the bench that he sat at the last time he was here. Nothing has really changed, though nothing ever changes around here. Yuki sighed in content with the peace and quiet. Though he had to admit he did want a little excitement in his life other than fans coming after him. He heard a rustle in the bushes behind him and he stood up. He faced the bush and was surprised when Shuichi came out. Shuichi noticed Yuki and slowly walked up to him. "What is it that you need?" Yuki asked him. Shuichi blush was hidden in the darkness.
"I wanted to say sorry for earlier." He whispered.
"Sorry?"
"About running off when we first met, you sort of surprised me." Shuichi explained.
"I see…is that all?" Shuichi nodded. Then suddenly he looked like he remembered something and pulled it out of his pocket. He handed it to Yuki. Yuki looked at it and noticed that it was a concert ticket.
"I was wondering if you could come to this concert." Shuichi said. Yuki put the ticket into his pocket.
"I'll think about it." He told him. He saw Shuichi smile.
"Thanks," he said and ran off into the mini forest.
'Strange kid.' Yuki thought as he headed back to his car. When he got back to his apartment he found his editor waiting beside his door. "A little late isn't it." She grinned at him.
"No not really, running off the day before the dead line again?" Yuki shook his head.
"No actually I finished early." His editor's face looked like the world has ended. He unlocked the door and walked in. "Well what are you waiting for, do you want the manuscript or not?" he asked her when she didn't move. She nodded her head numbly and walked inside. A couple of minutes later she had the manuscript in her arms and she walked out of the apartment when she looked it over. He pulled everything out of his pocket and put it all on the coffee table. He grabbed a cigarette from his pack and lit it. He looked at the ticket and picked it up. He was debating rather or not to go. He could be nice and show up, but knowing his editor she would want his to start his next novel soon. He looked at the time and noticed that it was the day after tomorrow at 10:00pm. 'At least there is no rush to decided,' he thought when he put the ticket back onto the table. He stood up and went to make dinner. There was a knock on the door and hour later. Yuki, who was watching tv, stood up and answered it. On the other side was Tohma…..again. "What do you want this time?" he asked getting more annoyed with the unannounced visits. Tohma just smiled at him. Yuki sighed and let him in. He shut the door and walked over to his couch. He picked up the tv remote and shut it off. Tohma sat down onto the couch.
"So how did it go?" he asked. Yuki sat down on the couch as well putting the remote onto the coffee table.
"The meeting?" Tohma nodded. "Not bad I guess. He gave me this." Yuki grabbed the ticket from the table and handed it to Tohma.
"A ticket? I wasn't expecting that. These are sold out too." He told Yuki giving the ticket back to Yuki. "From the looks of it he seems to be interested in you."
"Probably another person who wants to get something from me." Yuki said.
"That's probably not it." Tohma asked smiling. Yuki looked surprised.
"What do you mean by that?" he asked.
"He didn't even know your name. When he described you I had to get a picture out and show it to him to make sure it was you he was talking about." Tohma explained with laughter in his voice.
"I see…" "Tohma stood up.
"Well that's all that I wanted. I should get going I have a meeting."
"This late at night?" he nodded.
"See you later." With that Tohma left.
'What
a strange day today was,' Yuki thought. He stood up. 'Oh well
might as well go for another walk to see if any more ideas for my
next novel pops in.' he decided as he grabbed his jacket. He
grabbed his cigarettes and lighter. He made sure he had his keys with
him so he can lock his door and walked out into the busy night.
