Here comes my super duper latest update
Here comes my super duper latest update. I'm sorry for not updating fast. Now I have to make good chapters just to make up with you guys…It's not really easy to manage time. Please bear up with me. Please understand me for not updating faster. I have to type four chapters and there are times when the mental block syndrome attacks me, and most of time, I used to get the laziness syndrome…hehehe… So much for that, I know you want to read this chappie so enjoy reading! (I updated by this time because of an important reason...)
"It's All about Love"
Chapter 4
Stars of a Show
They had been traveling through the busy streets of Tokyo. The heavy traffic had taken control over their time management. Natsume had been driving for an hour and a quarter while Mikan had been busy messing up with Natsume's things inside the compartment.
"Hey! Stop messing around!" Natsume tapped Mikan's hands.
"Itai! What was that for?" she whined over.
"You're messing up! Will you just stop that! I can't concentrate on my driving." He bleated off.
"I'm not distracting you!" she squealed.
"You are!" he yelled at her.
"Hmmph…" she shrugged off and surrendered. She had matured over time.
"Wow! It's the first time that you admitted that you're wrong." He teased her.
"I did not admit anything!"
"You just did. You didn't fight back."
"I didn't fight back because fighting over petty things is so immature."
"I didn't know that she had really matured." He thought. "So you are a matured lady right now?" he teased her.
"Yes I am." Mikan beamed triumphantly.
Natsume thought that she really got matured but to his disappointment, Mikan hasn't change completely. She took out a lollipop from her shoulder bag, opened it and started licking it.
He chuckled to his self. The girl hasn't given up her love for sweets.
Mikan noticed that he's chuckling.
"Hey! What are you laughing at?" Mikan asked then continued licking her lollipop.
"Nothing."
"Nothing? You won't laugh because of nothing! Tell me! What is it?!"
"I said nothing!"
"If you say so." She continued licking her sweet treat.
The two stayed quiet for a while and Mikan grew uneasy with the silence between them. She felt that she have to say something.
"So you are using Sasuke Yashitake as your new name?" she asked. She had seen his passport when she messed up with his compartment.
"Yah…You're using Ayeka Koiso as your screen name, right?"
"Yeah. Ruka's using Akito Sagara. He's a famous singer-composer."
He felt a stinging sensation in his heart upon hearing her talk about his best friend.
"When will you hold you wedding?" Sadness was present in his eyes.
"We haven't really settled the exact date but it's gonna be in November." Mikan felt something in her heart when he asked her about her wedding. "Is he really happy for me and Ruka?"
"So that was just eight months from now." Hurt was present in his voice.
"Yeah." Mikan replied meekly.
After that conversation silence began to take place. Mikan was thinking about her upcoming wedding.
"Am I really ready to get married?...It's only by now that I learned that I haven't gotten over him…But I just can't cancel my wedding, Ruka is really excited for it…I just can't disappoint him…"
"Mikan, are you really getting married?...Have you really forgotten about me?...I still love you and I thought I had gotten ever over you…"
The two continued being like that until they finally reach their destination. Mikan began walking out off the car while Natsume silently followed her behind. The press people approached Mikan trying to start an interview. The guards blocked them and led Mikan and Natsume inside the conference room. When the two had entered, the press people followed.
"Good morning everyone. I would like to open up this press conference. You may now ask my talents." Sumire announced to the press. She had been Mikan's manager ever since she entered the showbiz industry.
Permy used to be an actress but when she got married, she decided to leave her acting career and focus on her son. But she really loves the showbiz industry that she tried to convince Mikan on being an actress. She managed Mikan wisely making her one of the most sought after actress and endorser.
"Miss Ayeka Koiso, can you tell us something about your upcoming wedding? Your fans are looking forward for your wedding." A male paparazzi asked her.
"Ohh, sorry I just can't detail things right now. The exact date isn't fixed yet but it will be on November." Mikan replied with a sweet smile in her face.
"Is it true that it's going to be a grand wedding? We've been hearing that it's going to be the wedding of the year." A female reporter asked her.
"No, it's not really a grand one. My fiancé and I wanted it to be a simple wedding. We are inviting our close friends and my beloved fans." She beamed at the camera.
"What kind of wedding will it be? Is it going to be a garden wedding? Church wedding? Or a beach wedding?"
"I wanted it to be a garden wedding but since my fiancé wanted a church wedding, it will be a church wedding."
"Ah. Miss Koiso, lots of boys had been drooling over you. We all know that they must be broken hearted when you announced that you're already engaged. Aren't you worried that getting married might affect your career?"
"No, I don't think so. They all know that before I entered showbiz, I already have a boyfriend and that boyfriend is my fiancé right now. We've been together for almost five years."
"Miss Koiso, who is that guy beside you?" Another one asked when she noticed the gorgeous guy beside the stunning lady.
"Ohh, he is my new talent. I'm so sorry if I wasn't able to introduce him. By the way, he is Sasuke Yashitake." Sumire replied for Mikan.
"So Mister Yashitake, is it your first time to actually be in tv?"
"Yah, I am a neophyte in this industry." Natsume nodded.
"You look so gorgeous Mister Sasuke. Already got a fiancé?"
"Thanks for the compliment but I haven't got a fiancé." Natsume chuckled making all the female paparazzi go loco for him.
"Did I really hear him say thank you? I just can't believe that he's good in acting. Take note, he was able to make those girls go gaga with just a chuckle." Mikan couldn't believe how strong Natsume's charisma is.
"You mean to say you are free?"
"Yah. I am single and available." Natsume joked. Everyone in the press laughed.
"Is that supposed to be a joke? Hmph…" Mikan commented in her mind.
"This conference is supposed to be about Miss Ayeka's new show, right? So, can you tell us something about the new show?"
"Sorry guys, we haven't attended the story conference yet but one thing is for sure, my talents will be the main star of the show." Sumire replied.
"You mean to say Miss Hana, Miss Ayeka and Mister Sasuke will be a love team?" a female press addressed Sumire by her screen name.
"Absolutely. Please support the new show of my talents." She beamed.
"We are very sure that the show is going to be a hit."
"Thanks guys. Thank you for coming. The press conference is over. Thank you so much."
The press began to walk out off the hall.
"Sumire?! Why didn't you tell me about it?" Mikan asked. She was shocked upon hearing that she's going to be Natsume's partner.
"Sorry Mikan. You had been very busy for the past few days that I wasn't able to set a conference with the two of you."
"You? Do you know about it?" Mikan faced Natsume.
"If I got an idea that I will be partnered with you, I will not accept this project." Natsume shrugged off.
"What?! How dare you to say that to me?!"
"Please stop that. The press already knew about it. there's nothing that we can do about it."
Mikan looked at Permy helplessly.
