DISCLAIMER I DO NOT OWN AIKATSU NOR THE SONGS NOR THE PEN NAMES USED

*Watashi e by Supercell (Nagi)

Fumiko's POV

I laid stomach flat on my bed scrolling through my Kirapatter. Momo sat at her desk working on some homework or something like that. It was filled with random chemical formulas that made my head hurt trying to understand. How she read that for fun was beyond my knowledge just like what she studies. "Momo look, there's another article on you and Shouta."

She didn't take her eyes off her textbook, flipping to the next page. "I don't know why you're still reading those. After two days, articles start to become repetitive in both analysis and commentary."

"Because it's proof that I was right. People are still talking about how you guys beat a bunch of second and third years in your first audition. Who wouldn't be impressed by you guys? It's not even just beating them! It's the fact that you guys did it together when the odds of being put into a pair were extremely low. I loved Shouta's song and your performance, that I can't help but to be proud of these articles. I mean just look at your idol's aura! It's so pretty! I'm not even sure when mine will appear." She rolled her eyes at me, trying to hold her smile back.

I played the performance again focusing on Momo singing the final verse as her aura was seen. A mixture of small light blue crescent moons, amber- yellow suns and silver stars circling around her with pink -white peaches being the main point. There was something else that could be seen in the background that made the whole image work. Green fluff balls with animal ears played on a music staff flowed through the crowd seemingly dancing in the melody. I just knew that it was Shouta's music speaking out to audience.

I happily paddled my legs reading the article on the two of them. "You would think that you'd show more concerned over your big day rather than fussing on me."

I smiled thinking about how I won against the whole grade. That's right, you're looking at the Starlight Queen's manager for the day. Tomorrow I'm going to spend the whole day with THE Takahashi Charlotte. I can't wait until tomorrow comes. Closing the article, I looked up Char's profile. There were basic facts about her from her birthday to her sleeping habits. Reading more and more things I found it amazing how she was self-managed herself. "Hey, Momo how come Hayate has Rika but Char-chan is alone?"

"That's mostly because he's been in the business longer than her. Snapshot's been a model since he was six while this is only Takahashi-senpai's second year being an idol."

"Wait." I rolled over to sit on the edge of my bed. "She is a second year. Does that mean that she became Queen in just one year?"

"That's why she's called the next Kanzaki Mizuki. The most interesting part I find is that unlike Kanzaki who had been a model in her elementary days and had training from Bepp-sensei, Takahashi-senpai had no experience prior to her entrance. Not much is known about her past in general. As far as anyone can interpret she was a normal girl that one day decided to be an idol."

"You can't say that. She's been on top of the charts since the beginning. I, myself, have almost every one of her covers downloaded. You don't get that kind of status just by one day deciding to be an idol. What about her split personality? Wouldn't it be hard for her to make friends? Wouldn't that also make it difficult for her to go to interviews? How do you think she does it?"

"You can ask her yourself. I know as much as you can find online. I do have to say that I've seen firsthand how hard she works to hold her title." For Momo to approve her meant that she was the real deal. This just fired me up even more. It was like I had a goal to accomplish. I was going to find out how Char was able to become Starlight Queen.

I stood outside of Char's private residence early in the morning like she requested. From what I heard the Queen always inherits the original Starlight Queen Palace and renames it to their own preference. This year Char took the honour of naming it to be Charlotte's Cottage. The atmosphere didn't match the name as the place was solicited from the rest of the campus with a gate blocking it off. Apparently, it was meant for Kanzaki Mizuki to resign in but was left empty after she graduated that led to its use now.

I raised my hand to ring the bell when Char came out. In shock, I took a step back. My body was frozen having her this close to me. Not because she suddenly opened the door but in fear. Her light blue eyes were sharp. Too sharp for me to handle. I admired Char since she debuted but never has any one captured Charlotte on tape. Only rumors that she had confirmed to be true.

"Ah you're on time. We should head out or we'll miss the car." She took the lead in locking her door and walking away. Having her at a distance I snapped myself to catch up. I ran to her side making sure that I wasn't too close to her. I moved first to help open the van door. I was trying to be courteous by letting her go in first. She stopped to look at me causing me to tense up.

"You should go in first." I was confused but I didn't want to argue with her and got into the car. She gave the directions to the driver on where to go even telling of nearby traffic that we should avoid. Not wanting Momo's statement to be right, I had to learn about Char and help her through her day.

"So, what's the plan for today?"

"I'm first going to be a guest host on a live broadcast radio, then I'm going to volunteer at the daycare for a little while. After that I'm going to a fan meeting and performance at the mall. It's a small venue so there shouldn't be too much problems relating to getting confused. Finally, I have a meeting with Headmistress Aoi regarding the Starlight anniversary. That's quite late in the day and to keep everything a surprise, you will be relieved of your duties by then." I tilted my head a little.

"That's it?" I thought we would be running around from place to place trying to fit everything in. It seemed like the most interesting thing that would happen would be the fan meeting.

"Yeah. Is something wrong?" She took her eyes off the window to look at me. I shook my head quickly to dismiss any doubt that she may have on me managing her. She brushed it off as nothing resuming to stare out the window. Not wanting to get distracted on my phone, I did the same. The car ride took about 15 minutes for us to reach the radio station.

I leaned forward, surveying through the windshield that a bunch of fans had crowded the entrance holding signs and pictures of her. The car pulled up slowly coming to a complete stop right in front of the entrance. Some security stood in two straight lines creating a path for her to walk down. Suddenly the tension was released from my shoulders as she moved to get out of the car. I almost stopped her so that I could open the door from the outside when she had already stepped out.

My heart started racing feeling the excitement radiating off her fans. They screamed loudly as she hopped out happily. I found myself drawn to her as her aura was flowing out. In that quick second of her opening the door she managed to switch from Charlotte to Char. There was small hop in her steps seeing all the people that gathered around.

I tilted my head a little noticing the door on my side. I recalled that Charlotte wanted to sit on the right side of the car when we first got in. Now looking at the way the building was orientated, if I was the one the sit on the right side then I would have been the first one that the fans and not her. That could have made it awkward for the fans that anxiously waited for her.

I took my time getting out not feeling that I had the right to walk close to her. I strayed behind her as the secretary lead us through the place. The host welcomed the two of us and handed her a outline of how the interview would go. She took a quick scan over it, nodding her head. "May I suggest a tiny change?"

"Of course, as long as it doesn't take too long to put in I don't mind much. What do you have in mind?" Asked the host.

"Well-" Char placed one hand onto my shoulder. "I have here my manager for a day. She's a first year at Starlight. I was wondering if we can try giving her a bit of air time."

I almost rejected the idea when the host clapped her hands together. "That's a great idea! The more the merrier as they say. Plus, I would be the first one to ever interview her. If she won the audition to be your manager I'm sure she'll do well here. What do you say?"

I stumbled a bit in finding my words. For a second I felt like Shouta had influenced me. "Sure, it sounds like fun. I've never been on a radio show so please take care of me."

"Great! Come on in then." The host opened the door to the main broadcasting station. In the center of the room there was a large circle table covered in mics and wires. The room was packed with electronics like the heavy cameras that directors used for movie sets. From what I remember this studio was not just live broadcasting but also a watchable one as well.

I took a seat next to Char in front of my own microphone. I played a little, swinging myself back and forth on the swivel chair. The people behind the glass signaled for our attention. Counting their fingers with the pointing to the clock, I figured that they were trying to tell us that we about five minutes until we got started. I followed their lead by putting on my headphones.

I was so used to my usual store-bought headphones that I've never got a chance to test out the professional type. From the moment that I put it on I found that they were high quality sound proof headphones. Suddenly putting them on made me get a headache that I had to put it only on one ear. That still managed to confuse me that I wanted to take it off or at least have the radio show start so that some noise could come through.

I tried not to show it as much as I could until the start. I was startled when Char-chan poked me in the shoulder. "You know you don't have to wear them. They're only here so that we could hear what the listeners. That allows us to control our volume levels and what not. As long as you don't speak too quietly or blow their eardrums then you don't have to force yourself. It takes a bit of time until you get use to them. Even I get a bit sick of it."

I looked at her headset seeing that she was wearing it the same way as I was. "It's okay, I have to get use to it like you said."

She smiled, getting herself comfortable in her chair. A red light came on letting us know that the broadcasting had started. "Hello! Hello! All listeners, I'm your ever-reliable host Hoshi. Today on Idol Talk we have two specials guests. So, wherever you're listening from please give a round of applause to this year's Starlight Queen, Takahashi Charlotte and her manager for the day Watanabe Fumiko."

We gave ourselves a short applause. "Hello everyone, how are you guys doing today? I'm Takahashi Charlotte."

She pointed and me. I quickly sat closer to the mic. "And I'm Watanabe Fumiko, it's pretty early so we should wake everyone up."

"Today these two are going to answer any questions that you guys have so send them in through any of our SNS and we'll answer as many as we can. We're going to have a fun time so don't go away after these short advertisements." From my one headphone ear, I heard a familiar tune for an ice cream ad. I bobbed my head to tune watching the small tablet in front of me filling up with questions. Some of them were just people commenting compliments for Char. After a minute or two of advertisements the host came back online.

"Wow, everyone is really enthusiastic today. I was kind of surprising seeing all of you reply so fast. And we said we would so let's answer some questions. Let's see..." She scrolled through her own tablet at the list. "Oh, how about this one from pen-name Elcall. 'Hey Char-chan! Today my friends and I are going to your concert later at the mall! Is there anything that you want as a gift? I'll try my best to bring it for you :).' You have some pretty generous fans out there Char-chan. Even today I saw our building swarmed with your fans."

"I know right. They always treat me well whenever I appear in public. I'm stoked to meet them again today and getting a chance at being able to talk to them face to face. That's what I love the most about fan meetings."

"I would expect. There must be a clear difference between that and you on stage."

"Of course. On stage I can feel that each of them loves me but talking to them lets me understand them individually. They already know so much about me that I feel like it's my turn to learn about them. My favorite thing is when they tell me stories of how I helped them through tough situations and I'd like to tell them that they do the same for me. That's something you can't hear when I'm stand on stage." She happily spoke as her eyes sparkled.

"Well I have a feeling that your fans will continue to support you for a while. But back to the question, is there anything that you want them to bring you?" She playfully rubbed her chin in thought.

"That's a tough one. I feel like if I ask for something, all of them might bring me it. Then I would have a thousand of the same thing. Um... How about their love and support?" The host and I laughed at her giving her applause for her quick thinking.

"Hear that Elcall-san? Char-chan doesn't need anything else but her fan's support. So how about the next question. Char-chan you can pick this one out."

"Okay then- Um- from pen-name Aipom4. 'I absolutely love and support Char-chan!' Thank you for that Aipom4. 'How does it feel to be the Starlight Queen? You must have been so excited when you won.'"

"Ah the golden question that everyone's been wondering about. As Starlight Queen you hold the title of the highest idol at Starlight and only being a second year. It must nice to own that title."

"Actually, I haven't really processed it myself. I just continued to work hard and next thing I knew I won the Queen's cup. If I didn't wake up in the Charlotte Cottage every morning I think I would have forgotten it myself. Like you said, I'm only a second year. This year other students started calling me 'senpai', even that was enough to throw me off. I'm going to continue to try hard though. It's a lot of pressure on me to maintain that title but I don't plan to hand it over to anyone just yet." She sent me a side glance.

"I guess that could bring us to out next question. If Fumiko-chan would do the honours." She gestured for me to the question that was highlighted on the screen. I cleared my throat then moved closer to the mic.

"From pen-name JazzyWCitty. 'WOW Fumiko-chan's really is lucky to have win that manager audition. I want to spend a day with Char-chan too! What's it like to be seeing her work behind the scenes?'" I was surprised when I realized that the question was meant for me.

"I would actually like to hear this too. What do you think about me, Fumiko-chan?" She rested her head on her hand looking attentively at me.

"Well it's only the beginning of the day so you would think that I wouldn't have a lot to say but like my roommate likes to point out, I do have a habit of running off. To keep it short so that I don't bore the listeners I'll just say that Char-chan is hard-working. She woke up early this morning to come here and can come up with witty comments on the spot. We still have the rest of the day left so I'm going to make the use of it by learning all that I can. I do have a comment about something that she said earlier though." I met with her eyes assured that Charlotte would come out. "You're going to have to hold onto the Queen's title hard because you've shown that a first year can take the crown. So that's what I'm going to do at the end of the year."

The host jokingly fanned herself. "Hear that listeners, the first declaration of treason from Queen's kouhais. How does that feel Char-chan?"

She amusingly looked at me. "I'm looking forward to that. It makes me excited to see exactly what you can do."

"Tag! Fumiko-chan is it!" The kids ran away from me the moment they heard their classmate shouting. They screamed loudly trying to hide themselves from me. I panted heavily as I had been doing this for what seemed like half an hour. Kids had more energy than I remembered since barely any of them was as out of breath as I was. I looked over to Char who was being dragged around by other kids to come hide with them.

I took a deep breath in then brought out the last of my strength to chase after them. You would think that with my training I would be better than a few kids. Nope, these kids didn't know about pacing. They only cared about escaping the 'it'. Luckily, I was taller than all of them giving me the long leg advantage over them. That and they occasionally tripped but at that point I was too focused on making sure that they were okay to catch them.

I managed to catch one kid calling them it as one of the teachers called us in. The kids and I whined that we wanted to play more. The one teacher was put into a tough spot seeing all the children pout. I immediately stopped siding with the kids knowing that the teacher didn't want to disappoint them.

Char walked up beside the teacher. The teacher was surprised but relieved when Char gave them her killer smile. "Come on guys, you should give us a break. We're getting older now that we can't keep up with you."

Char hunched her back over pretending to act as a senior citizen. She held onto her imaginary cane, scrunching her face up to resemble wrinkles. We all laughed at her, agreeing to let the 'grandma' rest. Even the teachers in the back, gave out a small chuckle seeing her act silly. This was the charm that Char had over everyone.

We all moved inside as per the teacher's instruction giving me a minute to catch my breath. I sat on the floor at the back of the room having all the students run around the room to get their water bottles. I waddled over to Char who was talking with the teachers. I waited patiently, helping a few kids open their bottles, as they spoke. She was finally free when the teachers had to prepare for the next part of their day.

"Can I help you with something, Fumiko-chan?" She started walking to the art cardboard.

"Um I just wanted to say thanks for what happen when the Sensei said that it was time to come inside. I realized it, afterwards, that I should have listened to them as a role model for the kids. You were able to convince them to come in so easily so thanks for that." She handed me a few empty baskets labelled 'safety scissors' and 'glue'.

"It was nothing. Besides I would have wanted to play longer too. As long as you stay on task that is."

"I'll make sure to do that from now on. Responsibilities first."

"That's good. Do you mind helping me clean up? The kids are going to have snack time soon. We wouldn't want anything lying around." She stood back up with her own set of baskets. I eagerly nodded in agreeance. I happily skipped around picking up a few stray glue sticks and their lids off the floor, placing them in the right spot. At this point most of the kids were scattered around the room with their snacks.

Suddenly there was a familiar chill down my spine. In my mind I knew that something was happening with Char. I looked over to where she was sitting with a little girl. Looking closer I saw her natural curved smile was gone and her light eyes had returned, making her Charlotte.

I rushed over to help the young girl in front of her when I saw that she wasn't afraid. Instead, she was happily chatting with Charlotte as she chewed on crackers. I walked over, carefully not poking the beast. I gave a quick scan of the younger girl noticing that her blue hair matched Charlotte's. The student saw me and waved happily at me.

"Hi there. What's your name?" I crouched down in front of her.

"Takahashi Ayumi! My friends just call me Ayumi-chan." She gave a toothy smile showing that she was missing one of her front teeth. I calmed down realizing that she was probably related to Charlotte meaning that she was used to her threatening presence. I gave a breath of relief knowing that she wasn't going to be scarred for life as the dangerous side of her idol was coming out.

Ayumi's smile dropped a little looking behind me. I turned my head to follow her gaze. The majority of the class had fallen silent, frozen in place. They stared directly at Charlotte. That's when I remembered that since Charlotte was never caught on camera, these kids who probably didn't know that she had a split personality couldn't prepare themselves for such a drastic change. Even I had trouble processing the whole thing when I first heard of it. Then adding on seeing it in real life something else entirely.

I stood up clapping my hands together to try and get their minds off of her. They slowly looked at me. With their scared attention on me I had no idea what I was supposed to do. Split personality wasn't exactly something that I knew much about to be able to explain to a bunch of panicked preschoolers. Suddenly Ayumi ran up in front of me, smiling again.

"Hey guys what's with those faces?" She placed her hands on her cheeks, pulling them outward. She shook her head crazily making weird noises to accompany it. One by one the students laughed at her, cheering her on. The knot in my stomach faded as I caught Charlotte standing up. She came next, placing her hands on Ayumi's shoulders. She gave the girl a subtle wink.

It was like all the kids completely forgot about Charlotte in the presence of Char. They looked at her with bright eyes, returning to their energetic mood. "Hey kiddies, sorry for the scary face. I didn't mean to scare you guys like that. How about to make it up to you I'll perform a song. Would that be okay?"

They all cheered loudly that the teachers ran out of their staff room to come check on us. One of them came up to me wondering why they were all chanting Char's name. "We ran into a little problem so Char-chan is offering to sing a song to make it up to them."

"Oh, that's a wonderful idea. Actually, we have an old keyboard if you like Char-chan?" Char looked at us with the kids surrounding her feet.

"Sure!" I helped move the electronic keyboard out of the storage, plugging it into the wall for her. The entire class rushed to sit in front of the small piano as Char took her place on the stool. I took a seat in one of the tiny chairs having the teachers stand behind me. "Any requests from my cute fans?"

Ayumi's hand shot up, waving it back and forth. "Sing that song! The one you played for your audition!"

Char smiled with a small blush dusting her cheeks. "Okie dokes. It's a little short but I'll do my best." She took in a deep breath, hovering her fingers just above the keys. 'I don't want to miss this. Momo will love this.' I took out my Aikatsu phone pointing the camera at Char.

Haro konnichiwa hisashiburi Her eyes fixated on the keyboard moving quickly over them for the introduction. Soft and light like her image.

Watashi wa ima nani wo shiteimasu ka

Genki nara ii kedo

Tokorode ano toki no kimochi wa Her body started to push itself into the piano giving heavier notes.

Wasureru koto ga dekita deshou ka

Ima wa mada muri desu

Itsu no hi ka motto toshi wo tottara

Wakaru hi ga kuru no deshou ka Her fingers slowed down for a bit, hitting one key at a time, letting each note speak for itself with the accompaniment of her voice.

Honto ni kore de yokatta no kana I heard how she was slowly progressing upward, getting higher and higher. Her face showed no struggled though.

Tama ni omou koto ga aru kedo

Sonna koto wa iwanai de okou

Datte watashi wa shitteru kana My breathing stopped hearing the way she delivered that note.

Jibun no monogatari wo Her hands seemed to have glided over the rest of keys giving it the escalating feeling as she finished off.

The kids screams of encouragement was the one thing to draw me back to reality. If Momo was here she would describe a through, in depth explanation as to how well she played or how she was able to control her singing. I, on the other, could only say that it was beautiful. I wouldn't expect young kids who were so used to Char's cute, dance songs to enjoy her acoustic performance but they absolutely loved it. It captured everyone's attention instantaneous that the fear that Charlotte left was erased. I turned off the camera as Char winked to her sister.

We pulled up to the mall's back entrance. Judging from the opening it looked like this was the entrance that trucks mostly used. I looked around noticing that there were no fans around. That's probably why we had taken this route. We went through the back door of one of the clothing stores. Since this wasn't a normal concert arena we had a small tented area for her to get ready in. There were no thick walls letting me hear all the fans.

They were incredibly loud that I could feel the buzz from the all the sound. I held my chest filling with excitement. There was almost an image in my mind that one day people would be doing the same for me if I kept going. I glanced at Char relaxing on the couch. It looked like the kids really drained her out than I thought. She plugged in some earbuds, sleeping peacefully.

"Char-san!" A person in an event planner t-shirt can into the tent with sweat dripping down their forehead. I stood up catching their attention first.

"Char-chan is kind of resting right now. Is everything okay?"

"Not really, the manager of the mall says that this area is starting to reach its maximum capacity. That means that there are a few fans here that did not buy a ticket and are only here to see her perform. Usually that's okay but they're really filling this place up fast. It's not only a fire hazard but a safety hazard. If we don't think of something we may have to cancel the fan-meet."

"No!" I reeled myself back. I looked at Char who was still sleeping. Of course, we needed her to wake up so that we could think of a solution but at the same time, Char wasn't the type to slack off in the middle of her work. For her to be sleeping showed that she really tired. I couldn't find the will in me to disturb her sleeping. "I think that... we should leave her be until the event actually starts."

The worker was surprised. "Are you sure? The crowd is only going to get bigger."

"I know but for her to perform tired is even worse since she can mess up more. I'm her manager for the day so if you can leave it to me. Please. If things get out of hand, then I will get Char-chan myself." The worker was skeptical. They took a glance at Char sleeping and gave a sigh.

"Okay, then follow me." I nodded as we hurried through the halls. I stepped out, stopping in my tracks. The rows that were set up for Char's meeting were completely filled up. Not only that but the balconies on the higher levels had fans pushed against the railings. They didn't even seem to mind, too excited that the event was almost starting. At the back of my mind I could already picture people getting unintentionally hurt in the rush.

I wanted to run back to get Char. Instead I stood my ground trying to rack my brain for how I could help. As her manager, I had to be someone that she could rely on when times get tough. Even self-managed idols needed a bit of support here and there. I put my fingers in my ears to block out all the sound. 'What would Char-chan do in a time like this? What about Momo? Either of them could handle this with no problem. What can I do? We don't have time for me to understand them. Idols were meant to encourage people and be a role model for everyone to take after. I need to fix this my way. Nice and simple.'

"Watanabe-san, can you think of anything?" My fingers popped out of my ears hearing the worker's panicked voice.

"Do you have a mic that I could use? Something that could be heard over all this noise?" The worker nodded. They brought up a walkie-talkie, muttering that we needed a mic hooked to the speakers. Not even a minute passed when another worker came running to us. I took the mic giving a quick thanks as I ran up onto the stage. The crowd got louder thinking that the event was going to start.

"Good afternoon everyone! If you don't know me, I'm first year Starlight student, Watanabe Fumiko. I'll be in your care today. As I'm sure all of you know this is going to be the stage that Char-chan is going to take in a little bit but there's actually a small problem that's come up." The fans screams changed to worried murmurs. I became a little nervous, hoping that this was a good idea. "I want everyone to look around you."

They all listened to me turning their heads as much as they can for anything to stand out. "If you notice there's only fans here but no space left. Apparently, we're reaching the limit of allowed people that it's becoming really dangerous for everyone. Char-chan is very thankful that everyone has gathered to see her but not at the cost at someone getting hurt. So, anyone that doesn't have a ticket, we're sorry to say but you must leave in an orderly fashion. I know it's a bit unfair, but I have to remind you guys that Char-chan's career is still in its first steps. She's going to have many concerts that you guys will have a chance to see."

"I couldn't have said it better myself." I jumped as Char walked on to the stage. The fans screamed for making her wave at them. She stood beside myself bowing to the crowd first. I handed her the mic feeling relieved that she was awake. She patted my shoulder whispering into my ear. "Thanks for taking over manager."

I shook my head. "It was nothing. When did you wake up?"

"When your mic came onto the speakers. Pretty sure everyone in the mall heard you." She gave out a girly laugh, raising the mic up. "Everyone how are you guys today?!"

She received ground shaking screams, widening her smile. "I thank everyone for coming and we'll begin the fan meeting soon after everything settles down. Unfortunately, Fumiko-chan is right and we're causing trouble for the rest of the people shopping today. Do you guys understand what that means?"

A collective 'yes' rang out, some tones sadder than others. I noticed at the back of the space some people starting to move towards the exit. I smiled seeing that everything was working out. Char placed her hand on my back gesturing for us to get off stage for the time being. Char handed the mic back to the workers that stood on the sidelines.

The initial worker that trusted me, came up to me. "How'd you know that just asking would work?"

"Because they're fans of Char-chan. Any good fan would respect their idol's wishes. Fans would be sad, but I was sure that they loved her enough to not stress her out. At least that's why I wanted to let her sleep more. Personally, I don't think I fit the manager role so much. I was really scared to talk to all of them. I did it though because as an idol I wanted to make everyone happy." Char and the workers cracked a smile at me.

"Well thanks to you the crisis was adverted. We should prepare for your actual stage now Char-chan."

"You were a big help today Fumiko-chan." We sat in the car heading back to Starlight academy. After the fan meeting had finished we had offered to help with the cleanup. We then had to go up to the manager of the mall to apologize for the commotion that was caused. They were understanding to what happen and said that we shouldn't be apologizing. We had managed to control the crowd before anything bad occurred in the end.

"I didn't do much today. At the radio station you mostly talked and showed off a funny and welcoming side of you that is undermined by your cute image. I had a lot of fun with the daycare as well. Ayumi-chan and the rest of the kids were super cute and when you performed." My little fangirl heart stopped in the memory of her stunning singing voice.

"I'm glad you liked it. They're always looking for student volunteers just to give out a helping hand whenever if you ever want to go visit. Ayumi really liked you too."

"Really? I may just do that. I never even knew that you had a young sister."

"I don't mention Ayumi that often since there's not much about her. Every once in a while, it's just a smaller fact about me that doesn't change much of who I am." It was strange to see so many sides to her in one day. Momo was right. The way she worked was well rounded that she could hold conversations for an hour on a radio for all to hear without stuttering. She used some extra time to visit her younger sister who she probably didn't see much because she lived in the Charlotte Cottage. When trouble came, either during Charlotte's cameo or a surplus in fans, she carefully handled the situation. I wouldn't have thought much at the cute idol if I hadn't been her manager today.

We arrived back at the front gates. Like she mentioned at the beginning of the day, she was going to meet with Headmistress Aoi that we had to depart at the center of the school's ground. "It was fun today Char-chan. Just don't forget to look out for me when I start making it big."

"You still have a lot to learn Fumiko-chan. Take it one step at a time and I'm sure I'll notice you." She waved at me, walking into the main building. My happiness built up in me that I sprinted back to the female dorms. I threw open the doors causing Momo to jump and drop her pajamas onto the floor. I ran over to pick it off the floor, grabbing her hands in the process to shake them wildly.

"Would it be right to assume that you had fun today?" She pulled her hands back, putting her clothes onto her bed.

"Better than fun! Char-chan is really the Starlight Queen that I envision to be like. She's kind, mature yet cute and her singing is BEYOND words for me to think of. I even got a short video when she sang for her little sister's daycare. Did you know she has a little sister? If it wasn't for her hair and name I would have never guessed that they were related. She was so cute as well and when they got scared by Charlotte, she made the whole class laugh."

"I see you met Charlotte in person. How was that?" I shivered at the thought.

"I think that was the biggest curve ball today. I'm pretty sure if Ayumi-chan didn't do anything the kids would have started crying." She chuckled sitting down on her bed. I plotted myself next to her taking out my phone. I opened up my gallery, clicking on the recording I had of Char at the daycare. "Just listen to her."

Momo leaned closer to my side so that we could both get a clear view of Char. I watched from the corner of my eye as Momo was listening. Slowly as the song went on, she tilted her head looking closer at the screen. By the end her eyes were as wide as saucers. The video ended with the wink to Ayumi.

"Did you hear how she clear she was? No warm up or anything right after playing a game of tag with preschoolers. That's our queen right there!" She leaned back, blinking a few times at me.

"You didn't see it?" I pulled back my phone looking at the final image. I played the video again paying close attention to the scene.

"No?" I questioned. She slowly nodded as a large grin took over her face. "Momo? What's with the creepy smile? You okay there?"

"Do you remember what I said about the type of idol that I want to be like?" Her question scared me.

"You want to surpass your parents, so you're going to surprise people by going with the flow." She nodded walking over to her desk. I saw her taking out her idol binder flipping a few pages. I peered over her shoulder as she was reading through Char's profile.

"I have another surprise I want to try out."

Thank you to every follow, favourite, reviewer and reader.

Trivia: Céasire is from Miraculous Ladybug where the main character's best friend's last name is Céasire and I needed a French name and this one sounded the nicest in my head. Hayate comes from the manga Buddy Go! where the main cool, popular boy name is Hayate. He was the bases for the type of character that I wanted Céasire Hayate to be in my planning.

Dragonlover: First, thanks for saying you like my story. Second, I can see where you think that Hayate is overreacting, but I wanted to make him seem a bit childish at times because he's been in the modelling business for so long that he doesn't have a chance to act childish that often. With Shouta he has a chance to be a teenager that he wanted to spend more time with him by having him as his temporary manager. One more point is that Hayate essentially looks up to the two of them. Even though it was his first performance, it could still be discouraging to have your two idols point out a lot of flaws in your awaiting debut. That's kind of why he didn't want to speak with Shouta for a while. Sorry if it was an implied way of saying things.
