“Wahhh!!! Sorry I’m late, minna. I thought I had classes today and when I realized it, I hurriedly changed back so, I’m sorry!!!” Our favorite heroine replied while bowing repeatedly.
“Don’t worry about it, Chinen-chan.” Daiki teasingly replied to her.
“Mou, ore wa otoko dayo! Mataku…” Chinen huffed while pouting oh-so-cutely.
“Hehe…kawaii…” The older member continued on while ruffling her head. The two continued having their argument when Yuto and the rest of Hey! Say! 7 entered.
“Having that argument again?” Yuto asked with a smile playing on his lips, eyes amused.
“Nakajima-kun, why don’t you just help me?” Chinen asked while rolling her eyes.
“Hai, hai. Daiki-senpai, you better stop it before our new member comes.” Yuto said while having an amused expression in his face.
“Ok, ok.” Daiki said as he stopped bugging Chinen.
“Where’s Yabu-kun?” Chinen asked as she looked around the room and find Yabu and Takaki missing.
“He’ll probably arrive in a few minutes with Takaki.” Ryutaro answered.
“Again?” Keito asked incredulously.
“Hmm…I think their houses are close that’s why they always come together.” Inoo answered Keito’s question.
‘There’s something fishy going on here.’ Our heroine mischievously thought as another thought entered her mind as to what’s going on between the two.
“Let’s just practice our dance for now while waiting for the two.” Hikaru said.
The group agreed and soon they were singing dancing, practicing for their upcoming concert. Of course, Chinen has her parts of stunts since she’s the gymnast of the group. Not soon after, Takaki and Yabu both entered.
“What were you doing? You’re both late?” Daiki said to the two with a hint of playfulness in his tone and a smile playing in the corner of his lips.
“Sorry, we missed the train we normally ride on. It’s because Takaki woke up late.” Yabu said, teasing Takaki.
“I’m not late. You are.” Takaki shot back.
“Hai, hai. Having a lover’s quarrel already?” Yuto teased the two.
“No we’re not!” The two answered at the same time, their faces flushed.
“Hehe…” Yuto sweatdropped.
“All right everyone, let’s all start our group practice since Yabu and Takaki-senpai are both here.” Ryutaro said.
Everyone formed their positions and started dancing and singing. When someone makes a mistake, they just laugh it off and start from the beginning again ‘til they managed to perfect it. Everyone was sweaty and tired by the time they decided to take a break and exited the room where they practice and head for the cafeteria. All except Chinen who stayed behind and practiced some more of the routines.
Meanwhile, everyone was settled in the cafeteria when Yuto noticed that Chinen isn’t with them.
“Hey guys, did you know where Chinen went?” Yuto asked the group.
“Well, I think he stayed behind.” Ryutaro said while munching on his doughnut.
“Oh, okay.” Yuto said disappointed since he’s looking forward to eating with him. He really doesn’t know why though.
“Minna-san, I have announcements to make.” Their manager said as he walked in.
“What is it?” Yabu asked, being the oldest in the group.
“First of all, you’ll have a concert in Korea, Philippines, Italy and Dubai for the next year so look forward to that.” Their manager, Akito, said as everyone cheered with joy.
“Second, a drama will be produced including all of Hey! Say! JUMP’s members and shooting will start by next week.” Everyone cheered more but it soon died down as they wait for further more announcements.
“And third, I introduce to you, Yamada Ryosuke.” Akito dramatically said as he motioned towards the door but he and the rest of Hey! Say! JUMP was dumbfounded when they found no one there.
“Umm…where is he?” Takaki asked, breaking the silence (and chirping crickets… ^_^)
‘Damn that Ryosuke!!!’ Akito thought as he thought of evil ways on punishing who he considers his brother, in a way.
The group just sweatdropped as they saw him cackle evilly with himself.
“He’s probably wandering around. Anyways, continue eating and we’ll continue rehearsals right after.” Akito dismissively said then disappeared out of the blue.
Our heroine, however, was too busy practicing to think about the others and the new member that they were supposed to meet by this time. She also failed to notice a pair of eyes following her every graceful move.
She was changing when she heard a voice speak.
“So, there’s a rose among the thorns. I’m quite surprised how you got away with it.” Chinen turned around to find a guy with the most seraphic face and striking onyx eyes staring back at her. Seeing as he’s a guy, she quickly covered herself and immediately changed into her clothes. After changing, she turned towards the guy, feeling afraid.
“W-Who are you?” She asked, gathering all her courage.
“I’m Yamada Ryosuke.”

Introduction: I’m A GIRL…
“Ryo-kun, do you really have to leave?” A girl with striking onyx eyes tearfully asked the ebony-haired lad who seems to be saying his farewell to the lass.
“I’m sorry, Chi. I really need to go. All of our family members will be transferring to Italy. I may not see you again after many years.” The young lad said with tears threatening to fall from his enrapturing face.
He, too, doesn’t want to leave his most loved one behind. But what can he do? He’s just a five-year old. Even if he said that he doesn’t want to go or even telling his parents that he loves her, nobody will believe it. They’ll just think that it’s just a puppy love. Innocent and temporary.
“Ne Ryo-kun, promise me you’ll come back for me” The little maiden asked while her bitter tears falls one after another.
“I promise Chi. I’ll come back for you.” The older youngster replied, determination clearly seen on his seraphic features.
“Yakusoku dayo.” The little girl said as she watches her love walking away.
KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A maiden bolted upright as she was suddenly awoken in her slumber by the alarm clock.
“Ngh. Yawn… what time is it?” The girl asked herself as she sat upright in her luxurious bed.
“AHHH!!! It’s already 7:00 a.m.! I have 30 minutes left to make it to school!!!” The lass exclaimed while she hurriedly did her morning routine. She also ate her breakfast hastily. She was about to dash out of the house when a maid noticed her haste.
“Chinen-sama, why are you in such a hurry on a blissful Sunday like today?” Her maid, and one of her friends, asked her courteously.
“Sunday? Today is a Sunday?” The maiden queried, confusion clearly etched on her ivory face.
“Yes Chinen-sama. Today is a Sunday.” The maid replied.
“Oh. Today is a Sunday. But why did I set my alarm clock?” The girl wondered to herself, reminiscing about yesterday’s events.
“Ah, I got it. We have a new member to join today. Sigh, I better get ready in my room.” The lass said to herself while going back to her room murmuring about different things about today.
“Chinen-sama sure looks energetic today.” The maid, Sakura, said to one of her friends whose also a maid in the mansion.
“You got that right, although I pity her for not being able to show her true self to the world.” The other maid, Akira, replied.
“I really wish for her happiness.” Sakura replied and at the same time, ended their conversation. She and Akira went back to their cleaning duties for the day.
—Meanwhile…—
‘What’s that dream about anyway? I don’t remember anyone when I was that young. Oh well, it’s probably just my imagination.’ Chinen thought as she wore her clothes for the day. It consists of dark blue jeans, black and white stripes tee with stars and a matching black jacket and converse.
Yup, her clothes are a boyish type. Of course she knows that. Ever since she was young, Chinen Yuri was forced to live her life as a guy. No one knows about this except their maids and her family and relatives. She’s free to be herself when inside the house but it’s a big no-no when outside. That’s why her most trusted friends are the maids of the house and she considers her room as her haven, a sanctuary of her own. An incident when she was young forced her into these circumstances.
Because of this, she’s afraid to trust.
To confide.
To love.
But that will change…
Today.
