Luka woke up from what seemed a hangover, her head was pounding. Her night wasn't the best. She had the worse tables. People were rude, and now, she was suffering from all the rude tones that she had received. But something sparked, "I get to see my idol!" Luka immediately, stood, then grabbed her head, "To fast...To fast." She whispered, as she walked towards her closet and picked out the best looking clothes, alright, Luka picked out her uniform. She sighed, "They really need to change this stuff." Luka whispered, as she turned on her phone, and saw three missed calls, she dialed the Voicemail number and listened,
"Is this Megurine Luka? I just wanted to see if you wanted to take that call back. If not, I'll look for someone new. We need to know, soon. Because there are plenty of people that would want this spot. So, give me a call back. Thanks."
Luka arched her brow, "Thanks for leaving a number...Or even telling me who you are." Luka shook her head, as she checked her next message,
"KYAAA! MIKU IS COMING TO OUR SCHOOL! AND SOOO IS LIKE ALL THE PEOPLE...Well...NO YES! ALL OF THEM! I AM SOOO HAPPY I DIDN'T GET ANY SLEEP!"
"Gumi...Gumi..." Luka shook her head, as she listened to following message, in which almost stopped her from breathing,
"Alright, its me again. I forgot to leave everything. This is the President of Crypton. And I was wondering if you were interested in the call back. Give me a call today, or I'll believe that you are not wanting to, and I'll give the spot to someone else."
Luka's eyes were wide, as she shook off the call. She needed to get ready, "This...This has to be a joke." Luka whispered, as she walked out of her apartment after getting ready. Once at school, people were freaking out. Luka saw all of the cameras being flashed towards; Miku, Rin, Len, Kaito and Meiko. Luka's jaw dropped as she saw the beautiful girl that she had a crush on,
"Oh My God! They are actually here. I guess the spotlight is off you now." Gumi playfully nudged Luka, "Luka..What's the matter?" Gumi asked, as she looked towards her friend, "Luka..." Gumi shook her softly, "Luka...Are you in there?" Gumi asked,
"I..I can't do this." Luka ran towards the bathroom, and she was instantly followed by Gumi, "I can't do this!" Luka stated aloud, "I just blew off the biggest thing in the world, because I am stuck here..." Luka whispered, usually she was calm and collected, but right now? Not so much. Luka was the verge of breaking down, when she heard Gumi's voice,
"Luka..What's going on?" Gumi asked, now concerned for her friend,
"Remember when I told you I had a call back?" Luka asked, but never gave Gumi a chance to reply, "It was the President of Crypton. I was in a random studio. They wouldn't even tell me who the hell I was auditioning for. They just kept saying, 'Sing, because you'll be picked up by a huge company.' So, I continued to sing. Not realizing that it would be with Crypton. So, I lost my chance." Luka whispered, as she exited the stall, "But hey, I get to be around my idol." Luka whispered, in a faded tone.
Gumi lowered her eyes, "I wish I knew what to do." Gumi whispered, as she took Luka's hand into her own, "Let us go greet our new guests." Gumi stated in a rather uplifting voice. "Oh, its Friday. No school tomorrow. I am taking you out." Gumi stated with a warm smile,
Luka and Gumi separated from each other, Luka left Gumi as she walked towards the five. She bowed her head towards the stars, "Welcome, my name is..." And this is where Luka began to stutter as her eyes made contact with Miku's, "M..M..Er...Ahem. My name is Megurine Luka." Luka finally managed to get out. Her heart was pounding so hard, that she could feel the beat against her ears, "Follow me...E..Er..I'll be giving you the tour of our school." Luka whispered, as she began to walk away,
"Do you not wish to know our names?" Meiko asked, "After all, you and I have a past." Meiko stated as she walked past the other Vocaloids, and hugged Luka, "Luka, how have you been?" Meiko asked with a soft smile,
"Well, good. And I can see you are doing amazing." Luka stated as she looked at her long time friend,
"Well, I guess you can say that. It has its up and downs. But enough of my 'wonderful' career." Meiko stated, "I'm Meiko." Meiko extended her hand, as she began to laugh,
"Nice to meet you, Meiko." Luka laughed with Meiko, but stumbled to grasp time or even air when Miku walked towards her,
"I'm Hatsune Miku." Miku extended her hand, as she finally let her eyes fix on Luka's, Miku's eyes couldn't look away, her hand slowly fell to her side. She couldn't take her eyes of the pink haired beauty.
"And I'm Len! And this is my twin Rin!" Len stated in a rather upbeat tone,
"Thanks, I'm Rin." Rin smiled softly,
And there was that voice that seemed cool and collected, "I'm Kaito." He stated,
"I know wh..Wh...Who you are." Luka whispered, as she began to walk away,
"Still the same, Luka I remembered from forever ago." Meiko had probably the cheesiest smile on her features, "So, where to miss Luka?" Meiko teased her,
"First, the front office you need a schedule." Luka stated, she ended up giving the full tour, once she was done, she headed towards her locker. Luka had saw that each of them got to their classes just on time. Luka sighed ever so softly, "I..I must have sounded like a fool." Luka thought, as she shut her locker and began to walk out, but was stopped by the Principle,
"Megurine Luka, can I talk to you for a moment?" He asked,
"Sure." Luka replied,
"You did a very good job today. Kept your composure." He stated with a smile, "I just wanted to say thanks. Now go home, and relax." He said with a smile, and left Luka,
"...Not sure what to think about that." Luka thought as she turned around, she ran right into her idol, Miku, "Oh god, I am so sorry." She whispered, as she bent down to help with the teal hair girl's books, Luka's hand touched Miku's, and soon their eyes made contact, "Oh..My god..I am sorry, Miku. Please forgive me." Luka whispered, as she heard a giggle from the Diva,
"Its okay." Miku stated with a warm smile, she had her books in her arms, and headed towards her locker,
"Wait...Shouldn't be in class?" Luka asked,
"No, I get out early." Miku stated with a warm tone, there was something about Luka that just made her heart flutter, "Have a good day, Luka." Miku whispered, and left Luka standing there,
Luka sighed, as she headed home. She knew she needed to call the male from earlier, and she finally got the courage to do so, "Hello, I am looking for the President of Crypton." Luka whispered into the phone,
"Hello, this is Matsumoto. Can I help you?"
"Yes...This Megurine Luka...I was calling..." Luka was cut off,
"Ah, I had thought you never got my call. Look, I'm going to cut to the chase. Do you want to meet at the studio for the call back? If not, I'll..." Now he was cut off,
"I would love to come to the studio! Its just...I have a very busy schedule. And I need to figure what I can cut out, and what I can keep." Luka replied,
"Megu...Can I just call you, Luka?" he asked,
"Yes, that is fine." Luka responded,
"Luka, I need someone that can come to the studio after school everyday. And I need the person to be reliable." He stated, "However, this one time. Tell me what day is good for you."
"Uhm...Tuesdays." Luka replied, she heard a long pause,
"Next Tuesday good?" He asked,
"YES!...I, er...Mean yes, that is fine." Luka replied,
"I'll see you next Tuesday at eleven in the morning." He stated,
"Wait...I am in school then." Luka replied,
"That is the only time I have." He whispered,
"Alright..I get out of the class early. And I'll be there." Luka stated,
"Then see you, next Tuesday. Thank you for calling me back." The male stated, then hung up the phone
Luka just looked at her phone when the call was done, "Shit...What the hell am I going to do? I..." Luka sighed, "I need to give up this childish fantasy." Luka mustered, as she walked to her sofa and laid down, she just couldn't believe that there could be chance that she could be a Vocaloid, but she also knew, that this was a once in a life time opportunity. Luka took in the air that was in her apartment, and released slowly, "I...UGH!" Luka wanted to think about something else, and what did she begin to think about? Miku. A smile rose to her lips, as she now just laid there, and began to think on how she would try and pull this off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Later That Night~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So, did you ever call that guy back?" Gumi asked, as she looked towards Luka,
"Yeah, but he wants me to be there at eleven in the morning!" Luka yelled over the blaring music,
"WAIT! That is during school hours! How in the hell are you going to managed that?! And don't you have to work Monday night?!" Gumi asked, now mimicking Luka's scream over the music,
"Sh...Shit." Luka thought, "What the hell am I going to do?!" Luka was trying to come up with an excuse on why she would be missing school. Or at least that period. "What can I do?!" Luka asked,
"One thing. Just go! You need this! This is your huge shot! And just think, soon people will be screaming your name!" Gumi giggled, with her scream, "And who knows you might be able to get with Miku." Gumi stated, and as she said that, Gumi saw Miku right behind Luka, "Oh...Shit." Gumi lipped, as she gestured Luka that she should turn around,
"What?" Luka asked, as she slowly turned around, she the teal hair girl now right in front of her, "H..Hi." Luka now stammered on her own words,
"Hi." Miku stated with a smile, and a giggle. "Thank you, Luka-chan." Miku stated,
"For what?" Luka asked with an arch of her brow,
"For showing me around. And for what its worth...You did a good job. A lot of people stammer worse than you." Miku smiled, then walked away to go dance with Kaito,
"O..Or my chance is shot out the window..." Luka muttered, "I want to go home..." Luka stated as she began to walk towards the door, she felt a light tug against her upper arm, "What the hell is your problem, Gumi!?" Luka asked as she turned around and once again saw Miku, she felt as if she was choking on the gulp that took ahold of her throat,
Slowly Miku walked back to Luka, then took her hand, "Dance with me." Miku stated, as she led Luka back to the dance floor, they began to dance together. Miku could feel her heart wanting to explode, not from the music. But from the very sight of Luka, of whom was right in front of her. Miku took Luka's hand slowly into her own, and continued to dance with Luka only to bring her closer of course.
Luka looked towards Gumi, and she saw her thumbs go upward, as she continued to dance. Gumi was happy that Luka was able to dance with Miku, though she knew Luka would never spill the beans that she was actually a lesbian. Though she did remember Luka dating guys before, but Gumi now realized how dangerous this could become. Gumi ran over towards Luka and Miku, "Gomen ne. Luka will you dance with me?" Gumi asked, she looked towards Miku who now looked like jealousy had taken over, Gumi took Luka's arm, and dragged her the other way, and began to dance with Luka,
"What the hell is your problem?" Luka asked,
"So, I had a revelation. You are soooo gay!" Gumi stated, "And not what it meant back in the day, where it meant happy. Luka! You are a fucking lesbian! And what would happen if Miku finds out?!" Gumi watched Luka stop dancing, "And you know I stole you for a dance." Gumi stated, as she saw something in Luka that she had never seen before, a twinkle that now ran down her cheeks, "Luka-sama..." Gumi went to grab Luka's hand, but Luka walked away, then sped up and literally ran out of the building, "Oh...This is bad." Gumi stated, as she began to run after her, but she of course, was caught by Miku,
"What is wrong with, Luka?" Miku asked,
"Oh, you know how us girls are. We get that wonderful gift from Mother Nature. And sometimes our hormones get to the point, its unfair, and we cry. It could be cramps too. I am going to check up on her." Gumi began to walk away, when she felt another grab of the same girl,
"Is Luka going to be okay?" Miku asked,
"Oh, yeah. You know it." Gumi stated, then pulled herself free, as she exited the building, she began to scream, "LUKA! LUKA!" Gumi began to walk around the parking lot, "Whose bright idea was it to come to a club on a Friday night, anyway?" Gumi asked herself in the still of the night, "Luka! LUKA! Come out, come out, where ever you are..." Gumi finally heard sniffling, "Luka..." Gumi knelt down next to her now crying friend,
"You are right, Gumi. Why would I even think that a girl like Miku would even look at a girl like? Am I that naive?" Luka asked,
"Well, I am not sure how to answer that. If I am honest, you are a little naive. But in a good way. Look, you never know..." Gumi was cut off,
"I want to go home. I am sorry. Thank you, Gumi for the night out." Luka stood, and dusted of her pants, and walked away. Her arms were crossed over her stomach. She rather walk home, not caring about the dangers that lurked on the streets, she needed the air anyway. She didn't want to stop, even when she heard someone screaming her name, "The iciness of the cold night, feels good against the odds of the night had to bring." Luka thought to herself, as she continued to walk home. She continued to hear someone screaming her name, but instead of looking back or even stopping. She continued to walk.
Miku finally stopped running after Luka, "L...Luka." She whispered breathlessly, as she lowered her head, and walked back towards the club, she looked back, then walked into the club.
Luka took in a deep breath as she walked into her apartment. She literally slammed the door, and walked to her room, and face planted into the comfort of her bed. And fell asleep.
