True love

[zay05ohayou]

This is pretty good!

"What's the song called?"

"The ~Peace~!"

Peace?Yossie thought. Right now, I wish I had that in my heart.

Awww Yossie.. 

"Wait!" Rika replied. There was no choice. She watched Yossie leave as Rika shut the door to her room. She grabbed a pillow and started crying into it. She wished she knew what was troubling her friend so she could think of something to make her feel better. She knew what was going on with Yossie and Maki(and almost with Miki recently), but she did not want to admit it at all.

Meanwhile, Yossie was looking up at Rika's window before she saw the light go out. Yossie felt tears coming from her eyes as she walked away from the house. By the time she could not see the house anymore, she began to cry uncontrollably. She felt her heart being tugged by everyone she had been in contact with ever since she started Morning Musume(or even earlier than that). She remembered when everything was all so simple.

"I'm sorry Rika," she cried. "I'm so sorry to put you through this."

Poor Rika.. She doesn't know what Yossie's going through... and so does Yossie to Rika...

But I love you,she thought. I really love you.

[sweeety]

Hey sory if I was mean in my sleep deprived state. I kinda get whats going on........ But I'm still a lil confused. And I agree with zay, Yoshi should get all the girls. Coz it's Yoshi. If Maki can do it thatn so can Yoshi! And besides, the start was open. It said they finally ended up together, it said nothing about the other two. It didn't say "meanwhile Miki and Maki were dumped" or something. In the end you could add on something like "Miki and Maki walked into the room and cuddled Yoshi and Rika while they cried"........ Maybe, please *cute puppy face*.

"I'm sorry Rika," she cried. "I'm so sorry to put you through this."

But I love you,she thought. I really love you.

Dammit Yossi TELL HER ALREADY!!!

[slasha]

Chapter 9: ~The Peace!~

After two days of shooting the video, the group was all but tired for their next show on H!M. Even though, they were tired, the mood was anything but pleasant with the parties involved in Yossie's web. Maki wasn't talking to Yossie, which she haven't talked to Rika since that night at Rika's house. Yossie knew that she had to find Rika before Maki could find her first.

She went off stage and found Rika heading into the bathroom. She went inside as well, to which she also locked the door. She hoped she could say what she had to for the next few minutes. "Rika?" she asked. "Are you OK?"

"Yossie?" Rika asked. She was almost to the point of tears. Minutes before, she was happy during the whole song. "Just leave me alone, OK?"

"I can't," Yossie replied. "I need to talk to you."

"Why?"

"Because I need to tell you something."

"What is it?"

"Are you crying? Did Maki say something to you?"

"No, I just needed to be alone."

"Why? Tell me what's wrong."

"I can't.."

"Why not?"

"I just can't.."

"Don't worry about it. There's something I need to tell you."

"What is it?"

"Rika..." Yossie said, placing her hands on Rika's shoulders. "I know you've been hearing things about me, but I want to tell you that they're not true."

"What is it?"

"Rika..there's only one person for me and that's you."

"What?"

"Rika...I love you."

"What?"

Yossie didn't say anything else. She leaned closer to Rika as she saw her friend beginning to close her eyes. To Rika, it was almost as though she knew what she was doing. Rika could feel Yossie's breath close to her. It was as though she was in a dream for her, only it was becoming true to her. Yossie... she thought, please kiss me..please.

"Someone open up!" soemone shouted.

"Damn..." Yossie said.

Rika hid in the bathroom as Yossie unlocked the door. "Sorry Kei-chan," Yossie said.

"Why'd you do that?" Kei-chan asked.

"Sorry..." Yossie replied. She walked away as Kei-chan went inside the bathroom.

Rika stayed in the bathroom until Kei-chan left. She went back outside as she heard the song being played again. It would go on to be one of her favorite songs from Morning Musume. She knew now that she had peace in her heart, all because of Yossie professing her love to her. She just wished she could say it back to her.

It was enough for her now to fight for her fellow friend(and possibly her would-be girlfriend).

[sweeety]

Chapter 10: Country Musume...and Miki

Both Rika and Mai Satoda were talking when someone form ther higher ups at UFA walked up towards them. "I have a surprise for you girls," he said.

"What is it?" Mai asked.

"Tsunku will be adding two new members to Country Musume. Meet Konno Asami and Miki Fujimoto."

The two new girls walked up to Mai as she welcomed the two new girls to the group. Rika was shocked to realize that her own worst enemy was now working with her. She knew that Miki would be in Morning Musume soon, but she never thought that she would be working with Miki this early.

"Hello Rika," Konno replied. "I'm glad that we are working together. I also hope that we do our best for the new single."

Little did Rika know, that it would be her last single with Country Musume.

* * * * * * * *

"Where's Rika?" Yossie asked Shiba-chan.

"I'm not sure," Ayumi answered. "I haven't seen her all day."

"I'm worried about her..she never answered my call yesterday."

"I'm worried about her too."

"I think I know where she is," Ayaka replied. Her, along with Mai and Yossie were good friends outside of H!P.

"Show me," Yossie replied.

Ayaka led the two upstairs to the cafeteria as they saw Rika being consloed by Mai. "Why don't you girls leave us?" Yossie asked.

"I hope you can get to her," Mai replied. "She hasn't said much all day."

"What happened?"

"I'm not sure, but I think it's something to do with Rika's last sinlge with Country Musume."

"Let me talk to her." Yossie sat down with Rika as Mai went downstairs.

"Rika-chan?" Yossie asked. "Are you all right?"

"What are you doing here?" Rika asked between tears.

"Trying to make you feel better," Yossie said. "I hate to see you cry."

"I don't want you here."

"What?"

"Leave me alone."

"Why?"

"Just leave me alone!" Rika shoved Yossie away as she walked away into a corner of the room. Yossie was stunned, never believing that Rika would do this to her. It was as if saying that she deserved it for what she had done to Rika, playing with her feelings. She went over to Rika, who again shoved her away.

"Rika, what is wrong?" Yossie asked. "You're scaring me. You never answered my call last night."

"Why don't you call Miki?" Rika asked. "You seem to be hanging out with her, or with Ogawa-san nowadays."

"We're just friends."

"I don't believe you."

"Why not?"

"I don't..just leave me alone."

"I can't do that."

"Why not?"

"Because, for one, we work together."

""I don't think I can anymore. Just leave me alone."

"Rika..."

"No, just stay away from me." She ran downstairs as Yossie stood heartbroken. She began to cry as the rain began to start falling from outside. She had to do something quick, or she would lose the one person she truly loved forever.

"Rika..." Yossie said. "I'll never leave you.."

She ran out, hoping she could find Rika before it was too late.

[sweeety]

omgomgomgomgomg Did she? I hope she did! She mustve! But then again! I think I know now! What happens will shock and excite tens of tens of us!

Chapter 11: Don't leave me...

"Rika!" Yossie shouted to her friend. She had ran as fast as she could before she spotted her friend waiting at the subway station. She knew that if she lost her, she would never see her friend again. "Rika, don't leave!" she cried.

"Yossie?" Rika asked. "What are you doing here?"

"What do you think?"

"I told you to leave me alone."

"I can't..and I'm not going to."

"Why?"

"You know why.."

"Yossie..just leave.."

"No, I won't." Yossie had embraced Rika from behind, clutching as tight as she could. "Please," Yossie replied, "don't leave me."

"Why?" Rika asked, tears beginning to fall.

"Why not?" Yossie asked.

Rika began to sigh, knowing that she did not want her heart broken any more than it was. At the same time however, she knew that Yossie was the only person that knew her and made her feel better whenever the situation. She wanted to say those little words to Yossie, but she didn't know if Yossie felt the same way in her mind.

* * * * * * * *

H!M set: weeks earlier...

"Rika?" Yuko asked. "What's wrong?"

Rika didn't say anything. She had just lost her chance to let the girls eat a special kind of meat. She began to cry as Yuko kept talking to her. "Don't cry on TV!" she yelled.

"Everybody wanted to eat the meat," Rika cried.

"So?" Yuko asked. "It'll be okay."

Soon, all the girls surrounded Rika, telling her everything will be okay. Rika didn't know at the time that Yossie had embraced her from behind. She couldn't hear what Yossie was telling her, but she knew that everything would be okay at that time.

* * * * * * * *

"Yossie..." Rika said.

"Yes?" Yossie asked.

"I'm sorry."

"For what?"

"I'm sorry for not believing you."

"You do?"

"I'm really sorry."

Yossie let go as she turned Rika around and hugged her. They hugged for several minutes as the subway cars zoomed by past them. Minutes seemed to pass slowly in time as the outside world continued at its usual frantic pace. The two let go as Yossie stroked Rika's hair before she lightly kissed her on the lips. Neither of the two said a word as they left the subway station hand in hand.

They would be together again, with no interruptions just days later...

[JFC]

^ I remember that H!M ep. It was so sweet how Yossi was comforting Rika in it.

[zay05ohayou]

^ awww~    i remember it too! poor Rika crying~

Yossie let go as she turned Rika around and hugged her. They hugged for several minutes as the subway cars zoomed by past them. Minutes seemed to pass slowly in time as the outside world continued at its usual frantic pace. The two let go as Yossie stroked Rika's hair before she lightly kissed her on the lips. Neither of the two said a word as they left the subway station hand in hand.

that was very sweet!

[sweeety]

I didnt see it! Waaaaah~ 
and the ending was adorable! Does this mean the story is finishing? 
That would suck, but, I guess having an end is ok, even if it is so soon.....

[anammm]

Everything is gonna be awwwwwwwwwwright, Rika!

[cool_kickin_dude]

nope sweeety, I still got a lot more left to do...here's the next chapter!

Chapter 12: Gatas and Konno

"Really?" Yossie asked.

"That's right," the Gatas coach answered. "You are going to be the captain of Gatas Brilhantes."

"Congratulations!" Rika cheered.

"That's not all," the coach said. "Rika will also be on the team as well."

"That's great!" Rika smiled.

Yossie hugged her friend and whispered, "Now I get a chance to watch you all the time."

"We will also have Miki and Shiba-chan, as well as Konno and Tsuji as goaltenders," the coach continued.

"Oh no...," Rika whispered.

"Don't worry," Yossie winked. "Leave everything to me."

"Anybody here?" Konno asked. She had just entered the room, getting the memo from Tsunku about the new soccer team. "Oh, it's you guys."

"Hi Konno!" Yossie replied. "Glad you're joining the team."

"It looks like you two have really made up now."

"Oh, I see what you're saying," Rika said. "About the Christmas special."

* * * * * * * *

During 13nin gakkari xmas special...

"Apologize!" Rika exclaimed.

"I didn't do anything," Yossie explained.

"You knee hit my shin," Rika said. "I want you to apologize."

"I told you I didn't do anything," Yossie replied.

The group laughed as they tried to get the two pulled away. Little did they know of the friction that had happened the two before that imminent kiss near the subway station. Minutes later, another fight between the two occured.

"I want you to apologize," Yossie replied.

"I didn't do anything," Rika explained.

Yossie pushed Rika as she pushed her friend back. "Don't do that," Rika said.

"All I want is a apology," Yossie asked.

The two continued to argue(playfully for the special) for minutes before they began the soccer skit once again. Near the end of the special, the two shook hands, telling the host that they made up.

* * * * * * * *

"Yep, we made up a lot," Yossie told Konno.

"Absolutely," Rika smiled.

It would begin to show as practice began to start and all throughout the games they played. The two always stayed together as Miki looked on, wondering what was going on. Rika didn't have to worry about anything, she let Yossie do all the work for her. Both girls always stayed close together during every moment they had during the times that they had.

Late one night...

"Hello?" Yossie answered.

"Yossie?" Rika asked. "I need to tell you something."

"Can it wait until tomorrow? We have the new video to shoot."

"Just come alone, OK?"

"Don't worry, I'll find some time for us."

Rika hung up the phone as she began to rehearse her lyrics for the new song--Roman~My Dear Boy~

To Rika, Yossie was her dear boy..
