Chapter 9 : The wedding shoot

Okay , so I admit I am a little bit nervous about this . Fine . I am a lot nervous , a brunette thought to herself as she look into mirror . The mirror stretched from the floor of the bright room to the ceiling , allowing the viewer to have ample view of his or her own body in their new and elegant attire . Ema chewed her bottom lips slightly as she twirled around slowly , letting the white silk fabric to do a small dance on the floor before resting in its original position , making it somewhat more glistening than ever . She places her right hand slowly over her chest , careful not to let her , again , white pearl bracelet to get caught between the expert embroidery done on the neckline of her white gown . She could feel her heart throbbing faster and louder by the second . Stay calm , Ema , just get out there , do what you're told and come back in before going off , the brunette chanted in her heart softly , as though she was afraid someone might hear her saying that .

The brunette let out a soft sigh before glancing at the mirror one more time to take in her appearance . The white gown was strapless , allowing anyone to take in the sight of her soft and cream-colored skin . The neckline of the fabric was fashioned in a small wave , letting the end stop just above her cleavage , across her chest were patterns of little butterflies batting their wings slowly . The upper part of the dress hugged her perfect petite body perfectly , giving her a nice figure before moving down to the lower part of the dress that puffed out slightly , as if like a tutu , but in a more stylish manner . The frills were not small nor were they too big as it reached the floor . To end it , a long silk fabric was extended about four feet , giving the white wedding dress a ceremonial touch . As for the veil , the gorgeous woman's hair was tied up into a neat bun with a reasonably sized silver clip that held the white fabric . Tiny white flowers were sewed to the start of the fabric and it went down all the way to the brunette's waist . Her earlobes were decorated with simple heart-shaped diamonds while as said before , on her right hand was besrowed a pearl bracelet , it was not overly fancy nor did it suggested that it was bought from a thrift shop , it was just nice .

"Miss Hinata , you may enter now ." , a voice snapped her out of her observations as two doors were opened widely for her .

~0oo0~

After another night of mischiefs and mayhem , the two girls and their two guy friends decided it was about time they rested and did what they would do for leisure . A brunette was seating cross-legged on her bed as she waited patiently for her green-haired room mate to finish rummaging through her bag and show her whatever it was she wanted to . It seems like Aoi was very interested and passionate about this little hobby of hers , whatever it may be . Across from them , laying on the floor was a red head who was busy playing a video game on her own Wii . She chuckled slightly in amusement at the sight of her stepbrother trying to pass the level she has already long passed a few weeks ago . Next to him , surprisingly yet no so surprisingly sat another amused man as he gave the red head a few snide comments on how he wasn't good enough and was beaten by his own sister . Yusuke groaned in annoyance as Hiroto smirked .

"Here !" , Aoi exclaimed in relief before giving out a contented sigh .

The green-haired girl dropped a few magazines onto Ema's lap , motioning her to examine it . The brunette looked at her skeptically before reading the title aloud , "Passion and Poise's Weekly Issue" . What does her she do with this besides reading it ? , Ema asked herself . The brunette begin flipping through the pages of the said magazine . Pictures of models , pictures of models , pictures of a dancing cat , columns of love advice and more pictures . She looks at Aoi in question , "What do you do with these magazines ?" , she asked ."Well , duh , isn't it obvious ? I read them ." , the greenette replied . "I meant what do you read them for ?" , Ema tried again . "For advice on love , the latest styles and obviously the gossips ." , her room mate's eyes twinkled as she said this . Advice on love ? As far as I know ,she doesn't like anyone in that manner . Well , besides Kana-niisan , that is . The brunette smirked as she teased slightly , "Oh , you mean advice on a certain monk perhaps ?" .

"W-What ? T-That's n-not true . I-It has nothing to do w-with your b-brother ." , the greenette flushed as she stuttered the words out .

"I never said anything about my brother , unless you actually do think about him ."

Soon , the green-haired girl blushed her cheeks to the color which can rival that of Yusuke's hair . "F-Fine , maybe I do l-like Kaname a b-bit ." , she whispered softly , not wanting anyone but her close friend to hear . Ema's smirk turned into a huge grin as she said softly , "I'm happy for you but Kana-nii is quite the flirt ." . Aoi nodded in acknowledgement before turning her attention back to the magazine . What a bummer , of all my brothers she just had to like the one that probably wouldn't reciprocate her feelings in the way she wanted to . I think I'll have to have a talk with him , thought Ema as too , turn her attention back to a page the greenette was so engrossed in . "What are you reading , Aoi ?" , she asked curiously . When she looked back at her room mate , Ema saw that her eyes widen as she pointed to the page where an article was printed .

On Friday , the 12th of May , our editor in chief , Clotilda Vermocelli was lucky enough to have a few moments alone with the new name in fashion design who has even surpassed one of the few greatest designers in the 21st century , Usaida Makovich . She has inspired so many designs all over the world and has played a major role in the influece of this year's most prominent event , The Goodbye Winter and Hello Spring collection . If you don't already know who we are talking about then without a further delay , we present the beautiful and amazing Miwa Asahina .

Editor : I would like to offer our gratitude from every staff that works at Passion and Poise for agreeing to attend this short meeting on such short notice .

Miwa : * chuckles lightly * No , I'd love to thank you for having me here . Frankly , after the wedding and honeymoon , work has surprisingly decreased and I find myself sitting in front of the TV watching 'Doctor Who' for most of the day .

Editor : * laughs * I would find myself watching 'Supernatural' .

Miwa and Editor : * Laughs *

Editor : Anyways , how was the wedding , Miwa ? And what about your husband and family ?

Miwa : Oh it was lovely , thank you for asking . I couldn't believe my husband out did himself and bought two cakes ! I specifically told him he could get his choice of vanilla but the darling got me the one I wanted too . * smiles *

Editor : Awwww

Miwa : As for how they are , well , my husband and I are very happy with each other . And as for my 13 sons , they are having a better time now that Rintaro's daughter is with them . But between you , me and the readers , I'll say they're just too happy , if you know what I mean .

Editor : Ohhh , I bet everyone would love to know what you mean by that , do tell , Miwa .

Miwa : You see , Ema is a sweet , innocent and a very beautiful girl living with 13 men , all of them mostly grown up , that is . I won't give out too much information but one can't help falling in love with such a delicate flower over time . And as for Ema , as said earlier , she's very innocent to the point where she doesn't know this is going on * laughs * .

Editor : I must say I do envy her slightly , having 13 handsome men fawn over her . Do you think some romance would blossom and what are your thoughts about it ?

Miwa : I cannot tell , only time will tell and as for what I think , I'd only tell this . Do what makes you happy and what is the right choice .

Editor : Your sons and now , daughter are so lucky to have a mother like you . I wonder how you juggle being a famous designer with the role of being a mother and wife at the same time . Speaking of designer , I would love to see you in action . Do you think we might possibly be able to come see your designs and have a photoshoot some day ?

Miwa : Thank you and yes , of course ! I am currently packed with many clients who are getting married this time of the year . You could come by my studio and have a sneak peek of my new collection of wedding gowns , 'The Pure and White' , and I have the perfect bride and groom model for you .

Editor : I am so delighted that you agreed ! Now that you've mentioned it , are you going to bring in some top models such as Darcy Silverman or Goh Lai Peng ?

Miwa : Haha no , I'd prefer to stick with people closer to home as this will not be an easy shoot . I am going to get one of my sons and my new daughter to play the role of models

Editor : After hearing that , I am very intrigued . Are you trying to play matchmaker , my dear Miwa ? * winks * Because if you are , I shall help along with it .

Miwa : Sadly no , but now that you've mentioned it , I am quite interested . * laughs *

Editor : * laughs * Alright , I shall meet your son and daughter next week . I am looking forward to it and thank you again for accepting this invitation and for the photo shoot .

Miwa : Your welcome . * smiles *

To all our readers , especially those who are fans of Miwa Asahina , please stay tuned for our next month's issue . If you are planning on getting married , we guarantee you next week's issue with the collection of Miwa Asahina's wedding gowns will make your choice of the perfect dress easier !

Ema blinked her eyes a few time before skimming through the article again a few times . Is what she just read actually true...? "EHHHHHH ?" , she yelled loudly , enough to get the attention of the man that were arguing in her room . Also , the rest of her brothers that were in the house .

~0oo0~

After composing herself together with the help of her brothers , her green-haired room mate handed over the article of Miwa Asahina to them , each of the brothers took their time reading it together . Not long after , all of them burst out in surprise too , just as their stepsister has . Each one of them asking themselves or each other whether they were the one their mother would choose to be the groom . Some were already fantasizing , some were nervous and others were , well , panicking . As if on cue , the phone rang . Everyone was quiet , all of them know a bit too wellwho was calling , judging my the ringtone . Hikaru decided to pick up the phone , considering he was more composed compared to the rest of them present there .

"Moshi , moshi ." , his silky voice said before pressing down on the speaker button so that everyone could hear what his mother was to say .

"Hello , Hikaru . I hope all of you there are doing well ." , her voice echoed in the pin drop silent room .

"Why yes we are , thank you for asking , mother . Is there something you'd like to talk to us about ?"

"Now that you've mentioned it , could you be a dear and pass the phone down to Ema ? Thank you ." , she replied .

Since the phone was on speaker , it was indeed unnecessary to hand the phone over to his sister . He unintentionally nodded before handing the landline to her . "H-Hello ?" , Ema said as she place the phone down onto the glass coffee table in front of her . Her brothers , Hiroto and Aoi leaned forward slightly , awaiting for what she was to say , even though they very well know what the woman was calling for .

"Hello my dear , how are you there ? How is Meiji University treating you so far ?" , Miwa's voice now going slightly more gentle now . She's always had a soft spot for that girl , maybe it's because she was her only daughter .

Her stepmother was one to beat around the bush and butter someone up before asking a request directly . At that thought Ema chuckled before answering , "I am very fine , thank you , what about you , Miwa ? And Meiji is awesome , I am currently the Co-Captain of the football team ." , the brunette smiled proudly .

"Oh I am doing well to , just as your father . Congratulations , my dear , I am very pleased with you ! I was just calling in because I needed a favor from you . You see my model cancelled on me for a very important photo shoot and I am in dire need of your help ." , she replied without a tremble in a voice .

Wow , Miwa is a really good liar , Ema thought to herself as she smiled . Yusuke snorted at his obviously lying mother while Tsubaki and Asuza smirked . Knowing the Wataru , he was about to reprimend his mother when Kaname clamp a hand over his mouth , reminding him softly that they were on speaker mode . "I-I see . Well , I would love to help you but I must warn you , I have zero experience in modelling ." , Ema replied nervously .

Miwa gave a small laugh before saying , "There is no need to worry , the only thing you need to do is look pretty and I know I am on speaker , so remove your hand from Wataru's mouth , Kaname ." .

The monk frowned before reluctantly pulling his hand away from his younger brother . Those not knowing the older woman , which only consisted of Hiroto and Aoi , dropped their jaws in shock . Was she spying on them or what ? The mother and daughter continued their little conversation while exchanging a few words with her other sons . As soon as the phone call was nearing the end , Ema took the phone and switched the speaker mode off , ready to end the call . As the brunette bid goodbye to her mother , Miwa told Ema who the groom was before hanging up .

Ema placed the phone down before staring at the wall in front of her .Why did she feel...how do you describe it ? Sad ? Disappointed ? It's not that she didn't get along well with him like her other brothers but she was actually expecting someone else . She couldn't help her own feelings , she was actually hoping that the man she loves would actually take part in the photo shoot as her 'groom' . She blushed at the thought of her marrying him . It could happen one day , couldn't it ?

~0oo0~

The beautiful brunette now took a step forward into the room . Her eyes was not used to this much white in the room before . Literally everything was white , well , here goes nothing . Ema smiled at the person who handed her a bouquet of red roses , she accepted them before walking towards a man in a black tuxedo . It seemed like he was the only black thing there , besides the camera equipment . The brunette tapped his shoulder once , the man turned around and gave her a grin and a light blush when he saw her wedding gown .
