A/N: all right, guys, here we go. Thanks to reading what I wrote of songwriter, millions of times might I add, I decided to try to write more of this story. Unfortunately, there is a huge time skip just letting you know.
Chapter 15: Songwriting Bridesmaid
August sped by quickly with loads of work and songs as did September, October, November, December, and January, and before I knew it, it was February.
Mr. Crypton said we were to have new quotas for a while because we were about ready to start making music videos.
"Everyone, two of the houses are done," Mr. Crypton began. "Reika, Ginny, you two can move back into your houses."
"Yes!" Ginny and I cheered standing up.
Our eyes widen in our faces turn red as everyone laughed at us. Our faces colors could probably be compared to Akaito's scarf.
"Ah right, dismissed," Mr. Crypton said. I ran up to my room to get Len and get packed.
"Len!" I yelled as I burst into the room, "I can move back into my house!"
Len was in his room packing up all the things, and Rin was finishing up packing my stuff.
"Don't you mean 'we'?" He laughed.
"Yes, WE can move back in," I smiled. "Len?"
"Yes?"
"Are you wearing a tie?"
"Yes," he cheered, "and I didn't need anyone to tie it for me."
He really was wearing a tie, the yellow tie with a navy shirt and white jacket that was decorated with a yellow and black collar and a green base class over his heart. Stripes that matched the collar wrapped around his arm just like an armband above his elbow.
"How are we going to get this stuff down?" I asked.
"No clue, but we'll get it down somehow."
Len grabbed his two suitcases and my laptop bag. I grabbed my two suitcases and thanked Rin. The stairs were funny thing to try to get through with our suitcases, but thanks to Rin, Preston, Miku, and Kaito, we made it. Meanwhile, Haku, Neru, Gakupo, and Mr. Crypton were busy laughing at us.
The house was definitely bigger, but it was still only one story. It was now a white house with an orange door and yellow windows panels. The inside was beautiful. Why walls held pictures of Len, me, and all of our friends in almost every room. An orange couch and yellow loveseat face an HDTV with a glass table between them. The kitchen was chrome, and the two bathrooms had an ocean theme.
There was one dilemma that I'm pretty sure was planned. There was only one bedroom… with one bed. The walls were white with the black musical score painted on it that when I read through the notes was the first line of "Spice!". The bed was covered with black comforters that folded over to show a white underlayer right before it reached the white pillows. The black ceiling that matched the plush carpet held a yellow ceiling fan.
"Well," I sighed, "Mr. Crypton sure has a vision."
"Yeah, no kidding," Len began. "That's weird."
"What?" I asked.
"Usually, he doesn't let couples sleep in the same room, let alone the same bed."
"Yeah, that is weird. Why do you think we're the exception?"
"No clue."
Len and I headed back to the manner. The dining room was already empty except for Ginny and Megan.
"Hey, you put yourself back in your house too?" Ginny asked.
"Yeah, you know it," I laughed.
"That's good."
"How do you like it?" I asked.
"Oh, it's fantastic," she began. "It's so colorful like an artist's palette."
"Sounds cool," Len beamed.
"I love it," Ginny beamed. "What's your place like?"
"All the rooms are cool," I said.
"Yeah, minus we share a room in the first line of 'Spice' is painted on our wall in music notes," Len added.
"You guys have to share a room?" Megan asked.
"A bed," Len corrected.
"That sounds awkward," Megan said.
"Yeah," Len and I sighed.
"Oh, guess what," Ginny exclaimed. "Miku and Kaito are out on a date."
"We should go to the town today, Rei," Len smiled. "Today is a free day, so why not?"
"Sounds fun, but what are we going to do?" I asked him.
"We'll leave you two to plan," Gin smirked.
"Yeah, have fun you two," Megan added.
"Let's go," Len smiled.
"I guess we'll just walk around?" I sighed.
"Yeah, it beats nothing," Len said.
"So true," I laughed.
After short bus ride, we reached the same town Ari and Tak held their party in. We just walked around like last time until he saw my brother and his fiancée.
"Reika!" Haru yelled.
The two ran over to us, and Hatsuharu squished me in a huge hug. Emily held out her arms to me like she wanted hug, but I walked over to Len and held his hand.
"Hey, Rei," Haru asked, "can I ask you a question, a favor?"
"Yeah, shoot."
"Well, I don't shoot people but here's the favor: can you write a song for my wedding next week?"
"I don't see why not," I smiled, internally scowling at his fiancée.
"Thank you, Rei!"
"Reika," Emily added, "would you be my maid of honor?"
I didn't want to be her maid of honor. The thought of it actually sickened me. After hearing what she did to Len, I didn't want to, but my brother loved her. So I put up with her for my brother. I decided to be nice.
"Don't you have a friend you would rather have as your maid of honor?" I asked.
"Sweetheart, you're going to be my sister-in-law. There is no one I would rather have as a maid of honor."
"Well…" -I looked to Len-" sure. If that's what you want, I'd be happy to be your maid of honor and to write a special song for you two." It will a steady stream of thank you's and almost tackled me to the ground in a hug. Haru cleared his throat.
"Sis, I hate to be rude, but we're going to go have lunch with Emily's parents."
"It's okay," I smiled. "I'd hate for you two to be late. See you soon."
"Okay, Rei," Emily waved as her and my brother walked off.
Once they were out of earshot, Len sighed.
"Let's go home."
"Yeah, I don't think I could walk around now," I sighed.
