Chapter Seven: The Talk Show

-

On Wednesday morning Kukai was forced to sit in the hallway of the hospital so Yaya and her parents could talk to Hiro and his.

Kukai's face was scrunched up and his arms were crossed across his chest; it was one of the only times in his life he was really pouting. Since only Yaya and Pepe could see Daichi, Daichi was also present in the room to listen in and tell Kukai later.

After a half hour, Kukai looked up and saw Hiro and his parents walking out of the room.

"Hiro," Kukai called. Hiro turned his head to see him. "You're marrying Yaya, but before you do at least learn the basics of her because I'm pretty sure neither of you want to be back in this situation again." Kukai told him.

Hiro's face remained blank and he nodded his head before continuing the walk to the exit. Kukai felt even angrier at Hiro for the way he was acting. Was Hiro even worried about Yaya at all?

Kukai turned his head back and saw Yaya's parents walk out, "Can I go back in now?" Kukai asked them. Mrs. Yuiki nodded and Kukai stood up and walked inside.

Yaya was sitting up in the hospital bed and flicking through the channels on the TV. Kukai walked over and sat next to Yaya's bed, "How'd it go?" He asked.

Yaya shrugged, "Hiro kept apologizing and his mother said they'd get the triple chocolate fudge cake and then Hiro's dad talked with my dad about some stuff they really need to know about me." she explained.

Kukai nodded, "Mika called last night and told me I'm gonna be on a talk show Friday night." He told her.

Yaya's fight brightened and she looked at him happily, "Omigod, so cool! Can I come? Which show is it? Are you getting paid for it? Will there be a live audience? Are they going to supply food?" Yaya asked franticly.

Kukai chuckled, "Yes you can come, the show is "Teens Talk Central", yes I'm getting paid for being a guest star, yes their will be a live audience and yes their will be food." he told her.

Yaya clapped her hands happily and started jumping up and down in the bed, "Yay! I can't wait! I've seen you a bunch of times on TV before, and it's still super uber cool!"

Kukai laughed, "When are you getting out?" He asked. Yaya thought for a moment, "My parents just left to sign me out." she told him. Kukai nodded and leaned back in the chair to watch the cartoon Yaya had put on the TV.

~*~*~*~

Friday night Mika had taken a limo to pick up Kukai and Yaya. Kukai was dressed in black dress pants, a white dress shirt and a dark blue jacket. Yaya was wearing a pink skirt and a white tank top and matching flip flops.

"Okay, why is she coming with you to the show?" Mika asked Kukai checking something on her iPhone.

Kukai was playing on his PSP and Yaya was watching, cheering every time Kukai killed a zombie. "Because Yaya is my best friend, I knew she'd be bored at home and she asked if she could come. I knew it wouldn't be a problem. Yaya knows how to act on a TV set, and she can either sit in the audience or stand offset with you." he told her, not looking up from the game.

Mika rolled her eyes at Kukai, "Act your age please," she groaned. Kukai pressed pause on the game and he and Yaya looked at Mika and both stuck their tongues out at her and laughed.

The limo pulled up to the studio and the three of them stepped out and walked into the stage doors. Once they were inside three different make up people grabbed Kukai and pulled him over to a make up table and started fixing his hair and brushing off his clothes.

Yaya took Kukai PSP and followed Mika over to two chairs sitting next to the stage and took a seat.

After ten minutes Kukai reappeared and a blonde woman walked up to them, "Hello, I'm Harumi, the host. It's so nice to meet you Kukai," She said, shaking Kukai's hand.

Harumi eyed Yaya curiously, then looked back ay Kukai, "I'm guessing you've seen the show?" she asked.

Kukai shook his head, "Well, no. This is like, a teen gossip show. I don't really watch those."

"What he means is he doesn't watch anything that isn't revolved around sports," Yaya laughed. Kukai grabbed the PSP out of her hands and Yaya whined for him to give it back.

"Well, here's what you need to do. I'll go on, introduce you to the audience, you walk out and take a seat and start to tell us your plans for soccer and then I ask you questions people have sent in and then questions from the audience, okay?" Harumi asked. Kukai nodded, and gave the game back to Yaya.

Harumi walked back onto the set and Kukai pulled out his cell phone and handed it to Yaya.

"What's this for?" She asked him. "I'm not allowed to bring phones or stuff on set with me. You keep it with you until the shows over, okay?" he asked. Yaya nodded and put the phone in her pocket.

The lighting soon started to darken and Mika quickly whispered to Kukai, "Remember, this is a live show, so don't mess up." She told him. Kukai nodded and followed the stage manager to where he had to enter from.

The audience started clapping and the lights lit up the set and Harumi appeared on the set and the cameras followed her as she walked to her seat on sofa.

"Hello and welcome to another awesome edition of Teens Talk Central. Today we have two special guests. First, he's the number one teen idol of the year and number one on the Tokyo soccer team. Please welcome, Kukai Soma!" Harumi said happily, moving her attention to a door on the other side of the set.

The cameras turned to it and Kukai walked out, smiled and waved to the audience, as all the girls in the audience started screaming.

Kukai made his way to his seat across from Harumi and they shook hands once again. Once the crowd settled down, Harumi started to talk with Kukai, and on the TV screen behind them, images of Kukai started to play.

"Now, Kukai, you've become the hottest thing this year, how does that feel?" she asked. Kukai chuckled, "Well, I wouldn't say the hottest thing. I'm just a simple soccer player, it's not like I'm a movie star or in a band. I'm sure I'm not the hottest." He explained.

Harumi laughed and shrugged, "I don't think the girls here would agree." she told him. After the audience stopped their cheering, Harumi started to read from the prompter.

"Now, Kukai you've been apart of the Tokyo Soccer team for a year and a half now and you made the winning goal for to Tokyo team at the finals. How does all this affect your life?" She asked.

Kukai thought for a moment, "Well, ever since I was a kid I've wanted to play soccer. My parents were fine with me trying out for the soccer team instead of going to collage, they knew I had it in me to get on the team, and they were right." he explained.

"What about your living situation? It's said that you've moved out of your family home and into your own." Harumi told him. Kukai nodded, "Yeah. My brothers had already moved out and I didn't want to be the only one at home, so I bought a home for myself a few months ago."

"But doesn't it get lonely living by yourself? Do you have roommates?" Harumi asked. Kukai shook his head, "No, it doesn't get lonely. I mean, I do live alone," Kukai paused and looked at Daichi who was sitting with Yaya and Pepe offset. "I do live alone but my friends have a key and they can come over anytime they want." he explained.

Harumi nodded and looked at the prompter again, "Are you planning on taking that television role on Kimi no Tawa? It is rumored that you were offered a part on the show." She asked.

Kukai chuckled, "My sister-in-law watches that show and she begged me to take the role, but I'm no good at acting and I'd rather just focus on soccer." he explained.

"Haha, Kukai, an actor? That's a funny thought," Yaya mumbled with a laugh.

"Now, why don't we move onto our fan questions part of the show," Harumi said, opening the laptop on the small table in between her and Kukai. She clicked away and soon the emailed questions appeared on screen and she started reading them off.

"Ah, here's one from soccergirl91. She asks, Kukai, have you ever wanted to play other sports besides soccer?"

Kukai nodded, "Yeah, I get that question a lot. When I was younger I wanted to keep my options open, so I played all types of different sports. I played football, baseball, I played golf once, and I snowboarded and even skied. But, when it finally came to a choice, I had to pick soccer as the one sport that would become my profession." he explained.

Harumi nodded and started to read off another question, "Pandagirly55 asks, were you just as popular in high school as you are now?"

Kukai took another moment to think, "Um, well I had a few fan girls and I was on the school soccer team, but I wasn't as popular then as I am now."

A few girls from the audience squealed and clapped their hands. Harumi looked at one of the questions and started to type something and sent it to one of the directors. After a second he nodded his head to her and started telling something to a tech producer.

"Kukai, it's rumored that you've been seeing someone," Harumi began. Kukai stared at her quizzically. Harumi pointed to the screen behind them and Kukai looked at it. The pictures on the screen were from magazines of him and, and . . . And Yaya! Pictures taken of him and Yaya when they went to register and them in the wedding dress shop and of him walking out of the hospital with Yaya on Wednesday.

Kukai stared at the screen with wide eyes and he looked offset at Yaya, who was just as shocked.

"Kukai, I'm pretty sure everyone who reads teen magazines are dying to know. All theses pictures have one girl in common, and they were taken at a wedding dress shop and a store for registering. Can you tell us who she is?" Harumi asked with a sly smile.

Kukai eyed Mika and she shrugged, looking just as shocked as him and Yaya. "Um, yeah, I can explain." he said, still a little shocked. He wouldn't have been this shocked if it hadn't been for the fact that his brothers, parents and his friends were all watching this show that minute.

"The girl in the picture is my best friend and she's getting married, not me, and she wanted my help with all the wedding stuff." he explained. Harumi giggled, "Riiight, we'll believe that for now."

Kukai sighed inward and glanced back at Yaya and Mika. Mika gave him a thumbs up and Yaya waved and started to play on the PSP again. Kukai chuckled and focused his attention on Harumi, who was walking to the audience with a microphone for the audience question portion of the show.

~*~*~*~

~*~*~*~

It was around ten when Kukai, Yaya and Mika were able to leave the studio. They would have left earlier, but Kukai and Yaya were arguing with the producers of the show about which magazines they got those pictures from.

Yaya yawned as the three of them waited for the limo to drive around. "I'm tired!" she yawned. "It's only ten, Yaya." Kukai told her. Yaya nodded, "I know, but I got up at seven this morning because I was worried about what to wear to the show." she explained.

Kukai rolled his eyes, "That's so you, Yaya. You can sleep in the limo and I'll wake you up once we get to your house, okay?" he asked. Yaya smiled and nodded her head, "Thanks so much Kukai!"

Finally, the limo pulled up and the three of them stepped inside. Mika pulled out her iPhone again and Kukai pulled out his PSP. Yaya watched and Daichi and Pepe were sitting on seat next to Kukai, sleeping.

After fifteen minutes, the limo stopped and Mika made her way to the door, "Now, what are you doing Saturday of next week because you have an offer for another talk show." She asked him, stepping out of the car.

Kukai shook his head, "Can't. That's Yaya's wedding day and there is no way I'm going on a talk show. This is my time off; no more work Mika." He told him. Mika sighed and nodded, looking at the half-asleep Yaya.

She closed the door lightly and the limo took off down the street. Kukai pressed a button on the ceiling and the screen separating the back of the limo to the front slid down, "Can you take us to Yaya's house first?" he asked.

The driver nodded, "Alright sir. But I thought she was going home with you." He said. Kukai chuckled, "No. Yaya's just a friend, dude." he explained, pressing the button causing the screen to slide up.

Kukai glanced at Yaya and her eyes were starting to close and her head falling down slightly. Kukai half smiled and looked down at the sleeping Pepe that moved to Yaya's lap. Kukai went back to his PSP and put it on silent so the sound wouldn't wake Yaya or Pepe.

After ten minutes of driving, Kukai felt something on his shoulder. He looked to his right and saw Yaya's head had fallen and landed on his shoulder. She was still fast asleep. Kukai's face heated up and he completely ignored that his guy died in the game. He put the PSP down and stared at Yaya the rest of the car trip.

He ran his hand through one of Yaya's pigtails and was fascinated at Yaya's sleeping face. She was so peaceful when she slept. The car came to a stop and the screen slid down, "We're here sir," the driver told her. Kukai glanced at him, "Can you, um, open the door for me? I'm gonna carry her in," He told him. The driver nodded and stepped out of the limo.

Daichi floated over and put Pepe's arm around his shoulder to help carry her in as well.

The door open and Kukai gentle picked Yaya's head up and off his shoulder. He moved sideways and wrapped one arm around Yaya's legs and another behind her back, then slid out of the limo, carrying Yaya bridal style.

Daichi quickly followed with Pepe and they walked up the driveway and up the steps to the front door. Kukai slowly moved closer to the door and pressed the doorbell button. After a moment Yaya's mother appeared, "Yaya?! Did something happ-" Mrs. Yuiki shut up once Kukai started shh-ing her.

She opened the screen door and Kukai stepped inside and made his way up the stairs to Yaya's room.

Yaya's room was open a crack and Kukai pushed it open and walked inside. Daichi made his way to Pepe's egg and put her inside and Kukai walked over to Yaya's bed. He gently placed Yaya down and pulled at the comforter from under her and pulled it up over her body.

Yaya turned on her side and grabbed her covers and pulled them up to her shoulders. Kukai chuckled and Daichi floated over to Kukai.

"Ready?" He asked. Kukai glanced at Yaya and, before he even realized it, he bent down and kissed Yaya's forehead.

Kukai was only mere inches from Yaya's lips and he glanced at them, his face starting to heat up every second. "Kukai! Kukai what are you doing!" Daichi quickly said, floating over to Kukai's head and pulling at his hair.

Kukai blinked and looked up at Daichi, "W-what the-" he mumbled. Kukai rubbed his forehead, "Dammit, I have to stop spacing out like this around Yaya," he mumbled and started to walk out of the room and out of the house.

"You kissed Yaya's forehead, dude! You almost kissed her lips!" Daichi told him in shock. Kukai nodded, "I know, I know! But I couldn't help it, dude! I just got this feeling in my stomach and head that I wanted to kiss her-" Kukai paused as he opened the limo door, "What am I talking about?! I've wanted to kiss her forever!" he groaned.

Daichi shook his head, "Kukai, the only way you could get away with that right now is if you were the one walking down that aisle with Yaya!" he told him.

Kukai nodded his head and then paused. "Wait a second," he mumbled. Daichi gave him a curious look, "What?" he asked.

Kukai sat up and leaned his elbows on his knees, "This is a big decision, but I'm ready for it," he told Daichi.

Daichi gave him another look, "What?! What?!" he asked. Kukai sent Daichi a smile and pressed the button on the ceiling so he could see the driver, "Hey, you think we could make another stop before you drop me off at home?" he asked him.

The driver nodded, "yes, where is it you want to go?" he asked. Kukai thought for a moment, "Any place that sells jewelry!" he told him. The driver nodded and Kukai pressed the button and the screen slid up again.

"What are you planning Kukai? Although, I think I have an idea of what it is," Daichi said grinning. Kukai smiled, "It's the perfect plan and I'm pretty sure it's going to work too!" he told him, pulling out his cell phone and texting his brothers.
