Title: Office Love Chapter 13 3/3/14
Post by: kuro808 on October 29, 2013, 09:23:50 AM
So I finally wrote this out XD

Chapter 1

Decisions were meant to be permanent.

Or that is what she had thought.

Rie had stood in front of the fire one too many times throughout her career.  She had two loves in life.  One was her relationships with people and the other was her stories.  As a part-time writer, she had developed many stories under the pseudonym Unagi.  She had grown to love certain aspects of life especially the place she worked at full time.

She grew to understand situation as they brew that once she had forced a couple together with her pen.  Rie was happy but she grew cautious of her life with the few eligible people she had seen throughout the company.  Unagi was a secret character that drew the audience into the observations of the workplace.  The forbidden areas where lust bloomed, the heavy smell of bodies touching were perfumed, and the one time explosions spread throughout the area.

As Unagi she was unstoppable.  Two stories were published in an underground magazine that caught the attention of the critics.  The publisher kept her identity confidential while they were going to discover who the mysterious person was.

Rie on the other hand, was quiet and reserved.  Her heart was on the platter ready to be given to the person next to her.  She fought the thoughts that limited her and walked over to the next cubicle.  Her dark red lips were pressed together as her feet felt like cement.  Her jaw slowly opened hearing the creaking sound close to her ear.

"Kitahara-san!  What are you doing here?"  He asked with an inviting tone.

Rie broke the mold scurrying into the cubicle taking a seat next to him.  Brushing her hair away, she forced a smile and placed her hand on top of the folder.

"I was... wondering... if you are... available after... work today."  She felt her words go through a shredder as the guy gave a wider smile.

"Rie-chan... I would love to if I didn't have a girlfriend."

The words were like an arrow to her heart as she shrugged off the statement and slowly returned to her cubicle slouching over in embarrassment.  It was rather depressing that she had gone through bad luck in the love department despite talking about it in her stories of forbidden office love.  She looked up at the computer finding an email about a get together after work with couple of friend she hadn't seen in a while.  Glancing at the clock, she figured to put in a few more reports before setting off.

"Kitahara!"  A voice in the distance caught her in the middle of her thought.

"Yes boss!"

"Can you stay for a while longer?"

In her heart, she didn't want to but since she observed the fact she would have little choice in the matter Rie nodded as the boss slyly walked away.  It was normal to get overtime but internally she felt bamboozled again.  Striking the keyboard with precise strokes, Rie ran with it until she found herself at six sighing as she heard the ring tone go off.

"Moshi moshi."

"Where are you?"

"Shiichan, gomen.  I'm stuck at work."  Rie replied holding the phone close to her ear.

“Work!?  Are you serious?  The boss is an asshole.”  She commented as Rie struck the enter key and sighed at the work.

“I make more than you do so I wouldn't complain.”

“Right, right!  Anyways I have a few people that we haven't seen in a while.”  Shiichan expressed as she lifted her cup to her lips.

“Who exactly?”

“Men who are friends with us.”

Rie's eyes went to the clock and watch it go past 6:30.  She hit the button before shutting the computer down for the night.  She grabbed her coat and closed the light to the floor.  Waiting for the elevator, she began to think of the school mates that had remembered her.  There were many who remembered her but she couldn't distinctly remember most of them.  It seemed awkward to ask but the door opened and she entered staring at the cell phone as a picture came up.

Her eyes grew big as she saw her crush in high school in a suit and tie.  Rie felt her heart flutter into the sky as she anticipated the door opening.  Rushing out she got to the lobby and pushed through the door.  A gust of wind stopped her in the path as she pulled the coat over her.  She scampered over to the restaurant where the group was in the far corner on their second pitcher.

“Konban wa, Kitahara-san!”  The first man greeted as she nodded her head and stared at the ikemen.

“Rie-chan, ohisashiburi”  He greeted.

“Ohisashi...buri.”

Rie was controlled by his looks.  He was Yokoyama Yuito, the lone reason why Rie had gotten into writing because she had dreamed of him for three years but was going through girlfriends like a stick of gum.  Yuihan as he was called, wasn't a player by definition but had developed such unique feelings except for love.  Rie wasn't the lone female love struck by him but was one of the few he didn't asked out.  Yuihan smiled when he saw her and extended out his after greeting her.

“OL?”

“Yes at a marketing company.  What about you?”

“Hmm, I work full time as a cashier at the gas station but I have been working on my degree in business so I intern at a financial company nearby.”

“Sounds nice...”

“Yuihan, you are so shy when it comes to Rie.”  Shiichan shouted as she held her beer.

“It isn't that I don't like you...”

“You have a girlfriend?”  Rie asked as he looked down.

“I do have one.  I'm sorry that you thought....”

“Yuihan, that is okay.  I have to go anyway.”  Rie excused herself heading toward the exit feeling the heaviness of the statement within her.

As she felt the pavement, she released her frustration into her hands.  She couldn't understand how things could happen this way and she talked about it more often than usual.  She took a few steps when a man with brown hair had approached her.  He was wearing a suit a size too big over his body.  He didn't have a full smile but he held out a white handkerchief.

“I saw you crying, so I thought you were in trouble so...”

“Thanks for the handkerchief.”

“It isn't a problem for me...  I was just wondering if you wanted something to drink.”

Rie turned a forced a smile.  She shook her head and returned the used item back to the guy.  The guy motioned his head and walked toward the bar.  She noted his appearance and grin.  Then as fast as lightning, she took out her book and wrote down notes to a story.  There was something that made him interesting and it seemed perfect for her to try but feeling heartbreak twice ruined the moment and she walked home looking up at the half-moon.  The image of her life gleamed back at her as Unagi was on the break of another story.
-----
“Rin-kun?  What happened?”

“She seemed angry but I didn't want to pursue her to just anger her.”

“Rin you are such a nice person to let that go.”

“Kuu, let's just go home and not discuss this again.”  He said exiting the restaurant.

I'm almost there although how will I fit the last piece inside because to even things out she has to be a woman...

Chapter 2

The keyboard was no match for Unagi’s fingers.  She pressed them with care at lightning speed.  It was a beautiful story about a woman who felt betrayed by her boyfriend and found love in a pub where he was a waiter.  After crying her eyes, out the handsome man came to her asking why she was sad and as the woman explained it to him, he offered her a drink to wipe the frustration away.  As a bartender’s understudy, he had explained that the one of the aspects was to see all his customers smile.  He forced her to think that drink had alcohol which he knew there wasn’t one drop.

The woman entranced by his looks drew a conclusion that she shouldn’t fall for him because of his looks but still goes away happy that someone had comforted her.  A few days later, the female character notices the man in the supermarket and quietly approaches him.  Her heart increases a bit as she sees him shopping and turning the corner, her hearts drop to the floor.  She shouldn’t have done it but it was too late.  Fearing for the worst, she heads the other direction and collides into the soup display where the cans avalanched to the aisle.

The bartender runs up and notices the lady on the floor covering herself up with her arms as he extended his hand.  Seeing this, she crawled away from him before getting up and running away.  The woman notices the mess and looked at the woman who had run away.  The man glanced back and shook his head.  The female smiled at him and held his cheeks as she forced a smile from him.

“Mou, that woman should at least pick up the items.”  She said looking at the mess.

“I’ll do it, Nee-chan.”  He replied.


Rie stared at the blinking cursor as she realized that everything she had wrote had become gold in that magazine and the section had blown to a full-time portion.  She didn’t realize how big of a fan she actually was until an author caught her eye.  The author went by the pen name Loveless and she talked about a woman who had fell in love with a man twice her age.  Even if he was married, she was infatuated by his looks and his kindness.  She had written him little notes and sent him White Day items for over two years chronicled in her notebook until the one day he had learned he was being transferred.

She only learned of it when suddenly vanished.  The woman drew to the conclusion that his wife must have hear about her gifts and probably forced him out before it got serious.  One day after three months of torture, she had visited the Nagoya branch of the company and found he was in a cubicle with none of the pictures of his family around him.  She came up to him and introduced herself and confessed her love towards him.  It drove him mad and suddenly attacked the woman.  Two men had to take him off her and heard the reason why he had no family and it was because of her.

She dragged herself to the bridge and jumped off feeling the angels lifting her to heaven and suddenly dropping her to hell when she committed the crime.  Ironically, a few days after the issue came out there was a woman’s body floating in the creek.  Rie was shocked and amazed of the events that she had started writing about little things and it soon became a serial of unrequited love and lustful romances with their supposed theatrical consequences.

She clicked to save the document and headed toward her bed looking at the clock had struck midnight.  Rie turned on the water to her bath admiring the pristine quality of the liquid flowing from the faucet.  Brushing through the water, she began to think about the guy who had saved her tears.  He wasn’t the most attractive but he cared enough to find her emotionally unstable appearance appealing enough to treat her of her sickness.
------

“Yuihan!  Where are you going?”  The sugary voice caught the guy’s ear.

“I’m going home.  You want to ride home with me?”

The shoulder-length haired woman climbed onto the bicycle wrapping her arms around the man.  The world of his past seemed to get back at him for his faults.  Yuito wasn’t a punk or a dork but he wanted to fit in with the crowd.  Moving from Kyoto, he was polite if not square toward the Tokyo crowd.  Many of his classmates saw him as a country boy with little evil within him but it was something that would trigger his anger that would let to the persona he had.  His fists were stone when it came to punching and knocking out a few people was nothing new but to rid of the stench it required more strength.

That is when he met Rie by chance.  His heart pumped like crazy just seeing her that he almost caused a whole hallway to go through a mid-class collision.  Yuihan had his mind set on it when someone had asked him to protect the weak because of bullying issues.  He couldn’t refuse such an offer to protect that he went ahead to do his deed to only find more that had liked him before actually realizing that maybe the fighting wasn’t worth it.

“Yuihan?”

“Yes Paruru?”

“Are you okay?”  She asked as he snapped his breaks.

“Yes, just been thinking of stuff when I was at the bar.”  He replied as she laughed at him.

“Maybe I should steer you home.”

Yuito and Paruru switched seats and he placed his hands on the seats leaning forward as his mind became clouded again with regret.
------

“Kuu, thanks for the night out.”

“Anytime.  Just give me a call.”

Rin stared at his door as the vision began its battle with the keyhole.  Cursing under his breath, he stuck it in and turned to the knob to the empty room.  Dogs started to howl awaking the senses of the man to throw his coat off his body revealing his true form.  He was skinny in terms of men as the lack of muscles gave him a feeble male character.

However, Rin wasn’t the type to let people go despite his build.  He knew how to defend himself and practiced every day.  He didn’t pick fights but he knew that people will only win if they stayed calm.  Despite taking down groups of people, he didn’t boast his prowess but he wished no one had bothered him. 

Kuu, his best friend, was most of the causes of his fights.  He didn’t want to be left alone for a few minutes so he had gave people lip and in return a threat had come out.  Rin quelled the actions and told himself that Kuu should stop giving him problems.  However, it happened many times over which Rin left his battles to himself compared to Kuu helping him.

He had lain on his couch holding the white handkerchief in hand.  There was a scent he couldn’t get out of his mind as she cried into it.  He began to ponder over trying again but it may have been too late to make another attempt and shrugged it off.  Rin only knew that he had no courage to ask another girl but enough to be a knight to protect her.

Now, he gripped it one last time before deciding to try for it tomorrow if she walked his way again.  Closing his eyes, he thought out his plan into the dream that he wanted to end with.

Chapter 3

Rie awoke to the sound buzzing from the box.  The flashing red numbers stared at her as she rolled out and jumped into the shower.  Through her rush, she began to think about the story she had worked on last night.  Rie drew out the comparisons and felt her heart skip a beat slipping into a dark blue skirt and threw on the blouse complimented with a white jacket.  Running down to the streets, she saw the familiar face on the corner with sunglasses on.

"You seem to be in better spirits."  She commented taking off her glasses revealing the bloodshot eyes.

"Yuihan wasn't angry?"

"He regrets his past."  Oya shook her head.  "I feel bad for the girlfriend."

"Have you seen her?"  Rie asked hoping she wasn't a beauty.

"No I haven't but I wouldn't be surprised if she was really attractive."

Rie began to think about her appearance for a bit and felt it must be a beauty on the end he sees it.  She clutched her purse while running against the tide of people to the office.  She saw a bunch of people in the lobby chatting to each other.  Stepping up to the elevator, a sign appeared in red.  Her worst fears were coming true about the company after the swirl of rumors from within.  They were planning to release people.

The workers clumped up into groups before being transported like a set of new prisoners up to the managers’ floor.  Seemingly, Rie saw the emotions of the many she knew personally go through the door with a box of memories.  It was a rough life as an OL but management knew their stock would only rise with the best workers.  Rie saw her group was up next and many had gone into a panic.  She was the youngest by default but still performance was on par compared to the rest who had worked an entire lifetime to get to their level.

The ride was filled anxiety as many felt they were about to become axed by the company.  As they approached the floor, one collapsed adding more pressure to the event.  Rie felt her heart beat quicker as she got into line anticipating the worst news.  Slowly, one by one the emotions flowed out of the room.  She held the handle and opened the door to a room with three people facing her.

“Kitahara Rie?”

She nodded as the seat was placed straight at the three feeling the stern eyes plant her in the position.  She took the seat and straightened out her skirt with her body becoming calm for a brief moment.

“We see you have a good performance on the floor and great attendance record.”  He started.

“The only problem we find is that communicating with others is under par.”  The woman inserted her statement looking up for a brief moment.

“Our decision for you is to be released but there was an offer from another company to take you.”  The elder gentlemen stared at the paper and held it out in front of her.

“Thank you for employing me.”  She said before leaving the room.

Folding the paper into a small square and placing into the pocket, the torture was only going to grow with the rest.  She took the next elevator down to the work station where a box was placed onto the side of the cubicle with a vase of roses.  Reading the note, she hinted a smile and placed the vase on the floor.  She scooped up her stuff and knocked the vase to the ground before entering the next elevator down to the lobby.  Rie tried to smile but knowing the results of the co-workers it wasn’t easy to show that she had another job in place.

“Excuse me.”  A voice yelled out from the crowd.

“Uwahh.”

“Gomen ne.  We met last night.”

Rie quickly saw the face forcing a smile warming up the conversation.  “I remember.”

“I forgot to mention my name, Sashihara Rin.”

“Sashihara-san, gomen but I’m a little busy with something.  We can talk another time.”  Rie excused herself as Rin walked up and grabbed the box from her hands.

“It is quite heavy for you to walk a long distance with a box this heavy.”  He felt his arms shake trying to hold the weight up.

“Thanks…  It is only right here.”  She pointed towards the next building across the street.

“I’ll carry it.”  He insisted with the weight testing his strength.

Rie wasn’t familiar with the building in itself as the only thing was the restaurant in the lobby.  The entrance was blocked by glass door where a security table was on the side.  Rie approached the table with the note and was offered a badge for access.  Rin followed her through the door and six elevator shafts were lined up three on each side.  She pressed the button opening the one furthest away from her and she gradually moved toward it finding the crowd had just come up to work.

“Are you okay?”  She asked as Rin adjusted his grip on the box.

“Daijoubu.”  He grunted.

They rode up to the fifth floor where there was nobody on the floor.  She walked toward the door and noticed everything was gone.  She thought that maybe it was a trick to see anyone would be there to answer and out came a middle-aged man with a balding head greeting the two.

“We will have the cubicles up as for now.  Please join us for our meeting.”  He bowed to both of them.

Rin placed the box and followed Rie to the meeting.  The speaker was another middle-aged man with brown hair and beads of sweat rolling down like melted ice going down a glacier.  She took a seat in the back row as Rin stood up near the door.  The lecture seemed to go on forever about sales and goals which Rie managed to battled the sleep demon.

Rin on the other hand drew up a plan in his mind to try the sales part of it.  There were many incentives to the goals and imagined himself on a trip or be in a bath with girls.  It seemed to draw up interests but he needed to gain access to the company and his hand shot up as the lecturer was wiping his brow with a small red towel.

“How do I gain employment?”  He asked as the room laughed.

“Aren’t you an employee?”

“No!”

“Well welcome to Suzuki Financial Incorporated.”  He announced and the people clapped for him.

Rie awoke to the applause when someone had approached the stage.  He stood next to the guy with a microphone in his hand.  The crowd slowly went back to their seats as he stood erect towards the crowd.

“We have a promotion to announce.”  He started in a booming voice with a wide smile on his face.  “After six months of tutelage, Yokoyama Yuito will become our new salesperson.”  The crowd stood and applauded as Rie sat as he bowed to the crowd.

“Yuito has been given a name to be his assistant for the usual and we will give him the slip right now.”  He grabbed the paper and opened it up with his eyes as wide as melons.

His mouth felt like a 100-pound weight had hooked up to his lower jaw.  He looked at the guy next to him staring at him as he only smiled.  His eyes scanned through the crowd.  The trees blocked the view of his target and he looked down again.

“Kitahara Rie-san.”

Upon hearing the name, she ran out through the back and searched for her box.  She gripped it hard murmuring the problems. Suddenly, a hand grasped her shoulder.  She turned to find a warm smile from Rin.  She forced a smile back when she caught a glimpse and her heart dropped to her stomach seeing him again.

Chapter 4

The whirlwind of events had happened as the reorganization had started and left the three in their space as the workers furiously moved their items to the correct spot on the floor.  Yuito being part of sales wasn't alone in selling but his inexperience was a vice for everyone.  He had his fliers organized in the bag with his computer flicker off and on checking for emails before he would do his round in the area.

“Kitahara-san, if there is anything to update me with please give me a call.”  He sternly looked at her before dusting off his coat on his departure.

Rie nodded as Rin who was sitting across of her as an intern took his stack of papers to the copier,  It had been a week since the announcement but the fears didn't settle among the three.  Yuito struggled to understand the reason for Rie's appearance until it was told she had been released from her job.  However, the feelings were strong within him that he had to spend nights alone to prevent Paru from knowing her existence.

Rie was quite the opposite as she had enjoyed their company.  She found out that Rin was quite amusing with his hobby of following idols and hearing about his friend's adventure around Japan as a promoter.  Rin had admitted his jealousy but realized that Kuu worked hard to get to his position and decided to become a willing person.  However, the two without her drew problems.

Yuito teased Rin about his lousy appearance and showed him up many times in a black suit.  Rin had always avoided confrontation and smiled to just avoid the situation but the office was into the gossip and dug into the back story.  The problem was Yuito become a prick towards Rin who was there only to help Rie out.

“Ahh Kitahara-san!  Do you want some tea?”  The woman asked as she waved her hand side to side.

“I see.”  She replied slowly going back with her tray.

“Chotto matte.”  Rie called catching up with the woman.

“There is a question I wanted to ask.”  She started.

“Yes?”

“Are you only here to serve tea?”  She asked to the laugh of the woman.

“No!  I'm the executive secretary.  Oshima Yuko is the name.”

“Ah Oshima-san gomen for my ignorance.”

“No problem.  I just like making tea.”  She smiled.  “You should join us for drinks.”

Rie nodded as Yuko handed over a cup.  “I think you would need this more than anyone else.”

“Thanks.”

She headed back to her seat as the rumors came flying again as Yuko was targeted but no one seemed to really catch the situation as is and it died quickly as work continued without another bother.

Yuito headed into the Italian restaurant where he had a client sitting at the table near the window by the entrance.

“Hello.”

“Yamamoto-san, Ohayou!”  He greeted placing his bag down onto the floor leaning onto the chair.

“You don't sound too well, Yokoyama.”

“I have been having issues.”  He sighed.

“You seem to be having a battle between two women.”  Yamamoto noted as a woman with shoulder-length hair took the seat next to him.

“Sai-kun~  I thought we were having a date.”  She smiled as he looked over at Yuito with a nervous grin.

“Miyuki, this is business with Yuito...”  Gritting his teeth as the woman playfully slaps him on the shoulder.

He glanced over to the far side of the restaurant and noticed a person sitting familiar to Paru.  Trying to avoid the situation, he took out his hone and zoomed a text over hoping that person wouldn't pick it up.  Luckily, his thoughts vanished when it wasn't picked up but a call came in.

“Moshi moshi.”

“Why did you send me a weird text?”

“I thought you were somewhere...”  He replied as the two grinned at him.

“I'm at a restaurant with a friend.  Remember Miorin?”

Yuito's eyes opened up as he glanced over to the other side to see the women at the table.  He bit down on his lip as he tried to think of his purpose.

“Yes, I do.  I don't exactly like her so I won't bring her up.”

“Of course but I can tolerate that.  Are you doing business with someone?”  She asked.

“Yes at the moment but I missed your voice.”

“Meh.  I guess I'll see you at home.”

The phone clicked off.  Yuito sighed at the exchange and turned his attention to the couple.  Sai took out a portfolio filled with items.  Yuito ran through them with a careful eye analyzing the collection.  He couldn't do anything about that as he wasn't selling insurance but he took out an application for both of them.

“You want me to invest into this company?  You gotta be serious?”

“I know they have a rough past and all companies do but the form is for me to help you gain a future.”  He explained as the two grabbed the paper.

They scanned through everything with a quick glance and placed the paper on the table.  They shook their heads and walked away from the table.  Yuito grabbed the papers feeling the edges in his hands straightened them out before placing it back into the bag.  He walked over to the next table and showed the used papers to another group and they were easily sold on the investment purchase.

-----

“Paru, are you okay?”

“Shimada-san, I love Yuito but I cannot handle if he works nights and he has been acting strangely since he had gone out to see his high school friends.”  She sighed in a rare moment.

“I see.”

“The thing is we haven't done it in a while either.”

“You're serious?”

She nodded as her dimples seemed to come out more than usual.  Shimada Haru respected Yuito as much as another but seemingly this was too much from him to deny his girlfriend.  He thought about doing his work as a private eye to figure the problem but her feet were rubbing against his calves which was making it hard for him to make a decision.

“If you want to...”

Shimada grabbed Paru and headed out the door.  He wasn't sure what he was going to do but to rid of Paru's needs was number one.

Full of win XD

Chapter 5

Paru stared at the white ceiling as she thought about him. Spacing out into the world, she wanted him to be comfortable but not to hold him back. The feeling of the fingers touching her bare body gave her chills as she saw Shimada by her side. The smile grew on his face as he did his venturing against Paru's knowledge. His lips brushed by her neck as he felt her palm pressed into him.

"What's wrong?"

"I can't do it." She cried pounding her fist into the bed.
"Paru... Yuihan is only going to hurt you more if he doesn't explain it." Shimada pleaded forcing his body onto her as Paru turned to her side.

"What do you know?" She said in a soft voice.

He climbed off the bed grabbing his clothes and pulling it over his body.

"Enough to consider this again. Sorry I'll just go back to work."

Shimada marched out of the room grunting out his frustrations as she stared at the city. The sun glared in at her as she thought about her boyfriend. It seemed difficult to extract information but the plan was foolproof and she knew where to get it too.
-----

Rie glanced up at the clock as she started to finish up her reports when Rin had approached his desk with a long sigh.  The woman flashed a smile to seek his attention and as it hit five, Rie hit send and grabbed her bag.

"Want to go out for drinks?"

Rin's head shot up like a puppy wanting attention and nodded yes.  He followed her to the elevator where the shorter woman was holding her folded sweater over her arm.  Rin held his progress as Rie talked to the woman when he felt a slight vibration.

Want to go out?

I thought you were on a trip...

I just came back from a day trip and wanted you to meet someone.

I'm going to have drinks with my new co-workers.


Rin slid the phone back into his pocket as he saw the two had entered the elevator.  Rushing into the box, he slid before the door closed to the amusement of the women.  Rin stood up dusting off the accumulation on his suit.  He felt something warm on his backside and grabbed his phone but it was cool to the touch and looked to his right to a smile.  He smiled back seeing what had been touching him and bit down on his lip.

"Rin-kun, how was the first day?"  The woman asked him as the hand returned to its owner side.

"It... was... great."

"That is good because Yuito will get some credit if you succeed."  Yuko grinned as Rie turned.

"Rin is such a great person."  Rie added as Rin grew red in the face.

There were certain things in life he didn't experience.  One was to understand women, two was to be with one, and three was to say the right words.  He didn't want to feel rushed but he shuffled his body closer to Yuko as the elevator door opened.

"ALCOHOL!"  Yuko screamed as she rushed out leaving the two behind.

Tiny drops fell from the sky as the two seemed to stroll through the mist.  Rie looked up into the dark sky and smiled as Rin stood frozen with his thoughts starting to flow and took a few steps forward with his stone feet.  He reached out and felt the wind blow through his fingers seeing her turn towards him.

“Is there something a matter?”

“No, just wanting to catch up with Yuko.”  He explained as the thoughts diminished into the thin air.

The two observed the squirrel prancing into the bar and jogged over to join her.  The placed was filled smoke and salary men woefully regretting life with their families.  The three managed to get to the bar where Yuko had her drink ready as the other two gazed at the bartender.  A tall feminine-like man stood wiping glasses in hand.

“Go order you two!”  Yuko commanded the two new workers as the bartender looked at them.

“May I have sake?”  Rie asked as Rin looked down at the menu.

“May I suggest this?”

Rin nodded slowly as the bartender prepped Rie's request first.  Rin watched him throw around bottles like a juggler, coordinating his movements to the music of the present.  The red concoction caught his eye as he took the first taste of strawberry and vodka seemingly dancing on his tongue.  He looked over at Rie and grabbed the bottle for her and poured a drink without mumbling a word.

“I wish a person would do that for me...”  Yuko sighed as Rin looked over and held up a finger.

A glass and bottle appeared in front of him. He grabbed the large bottle tilt it over letting the golden elixir pour into the clear glass.  Yuko's face lit up as the glass was slid over to her.  Rin carefully sipped the mixture letting the elixir take over his senses.  The two women witnessed the change from quiet to an extroverted gentlemen.  The smiles as they talked about life and their backgrounds.  They were beyond the reality of the world.

Yuko suddenly leaned in and stuck her hand between Rin's legs.  The secretary gave off a goofy grin as Rie glanced at her before she removed her hand.  Rin's voice shrilled as he felt the hand grab his package.  Yuko returned to her drink as the two went back to their positions. Rin downed the last of his fifth drink and jumped off the seat.

“Yuko, I think we must head home.”  Rie called out as Rin rushed out into the street.

“Rin-kun!”

“Rie...”  He sighed as he felt the two hundred pound weight take him into the pile of filled trash bags.

The residue water soaked his jacket as he battled gravity to stay upright.  His glassy eyes gave away the frustration he felt.  He collapsed into her arms sobbing, as Rie carried him to the bench nearby.  Rin wiped his eyes as he turned away from Rie for a brief moment.

“Yuko must be really drunk.”  Rie offered the explanation hoping for something to be said.

“Probably she is, but I couldn't take her up on the offer.”

“What do you mean?”

“Yuko doing that only meant one thing and that to me, I didn't want to offer.”

“I'm not sure what you are talking about.”  Rie pursed her lips.

“Yuko... should know who I am, if not had seen me before but looks like she doesn't remember.”  Rin started as his eyes slowly rolled back before coming back to consciousness.  “I was once a prostitute for women and I had met Yuko through a posting board.  She had told me that she just went through a bad break up and just wanted to have meaningless sex.  As I began to undress, she noticed the size and her jaw dropped.  We only had done it once that night because she was scared so if I had shown it to her again it would be bad for me.”

The explanation didn't make sense with Rie but she understood the awkwardness it would cause for anyone in Rin's position.  He had to run away because it would lead to another heart break.  Rie tried to fight the alcohol to make a quality decision but the toxin was winning over her mind and decided to just take Rin to his apartment.

“Let's take you home.”  Rie announced as he leaned onto her.

Yeah... XD

Chapter 6

The light peered through the curtains forcing Rin to turn over blocking the hindrance.  The red numbers gave him a jolt out of his bed and jumped into the shower. Twenty minutes seemed long enough to realize he was late but with every second ticking, he started his relay run through the obstacles of his apartment.  The room was scattered with clothing and food containers as he managed to get to the door where his friend stood with a fresh suit.

“Ohayou~” he greeted.

Rin immediately grabbed his head as the jackhammer within his mind decided to play its song of last night’s mistake.  Squinting his eyes, the sun blasted him with the rays as the smell of coffee awoken him from the slight slumber monster.  The first sip killed his tongue followed by the roof of his mouth to his friend’s delight.

“How was your date?”  Rin asked keeping the spout near his lips for his next sip.

“Well… it was horrible.”

“How could it be with you?”

“She was everything I hated about women.  The thing is we have another date in a few days.”  His voice trailed off gradually looking away from Rin.

“God, I don’t have a date and I really don’t want to find someone to just help you with the evening.”  Rin explained before taking his fifth sip of the soothing elixir.

“Please!  I’m begging you.  I really want to decline unless you find a date.”

“Just decline.”

Kuu shook his head and punched in the number.  After a few words, he sighed at the phone before sliding it back into his back pocket.  Rin’s head shot up and gave back the cup back to Kuu as he desperately ran into the crowd of the city.  The swarm of people didn’t help his progress and squirming like a worm through the bodies seemed to work through as he pushed through into the lobby and jumped over the security area with badge in hand.  Rin jumped into the elevator and felt a hand brushed his backside.  Casually looking back, a toothy grin appeared in his view as he covered his mouth.

“Rin-san, is there something you want to tell me?”

“Oshima-san!  Ohayou!”  He screamed hearing the woman’s giggling behind him.

“We better get off.”  She warned him as the numbers clicked to the fifteenth floor.

Rin led the group out onto the floor where the two stared at the frightened man as he went into the workstation.  He took his seat as Oshima stood in front of them with her hands on her hips glaring at three.

“I have you guys as a team to get new customers.  Since you are new in the company, we have a new product to get investment into the company.”  She started as a tall man had entered and directed them into the meeting room where six chairs had been setup.

The three team members took the right side of the room as Oshima and two other men took the other side as the projector was turned on.  The tall man with chestnut colored hair stood up and adjusted his glasses in front of them.  He sternly gave them a look before flashing a smile before going back to his stern look.

“I’m Shinoda Mario, supervisor of the young group.”  He introduced himself with a deep bow.  “The thing is we want to promote the youth into investing a small bit into an investment of a special item that will take over Akihabara.”

“I thought we sell insurance.”  Yuito spoke up as Shinoda flashed a smirk.

“That is our main business.  However, the youth want something fresh and we are going to create a show that we have the right to sponsor within our building.”  Shinoda explained.  “This show will contain acts from around the nation to come out and perform at our stage.  Suzuki Talent Competition will involve many acts but we have no media rights and it will be up to you guys to get the media rights.”

The three glared at each other as they heard the words and looked back at Shinoda.  The screen showed the steps toward the successful show and the talent hunt seemed to be done but the media rights were up in the air.  Rin cocked his hand and shot it up to get the attention of the older male.

“I can attempt to give them the pitch to try the show.”  He spat out as Shinoda clapped his hands.

“How are we going to get the youth to commit?”  Yuito asked as Shinoda handed a pamphlet.

The three opened up the paper to a chart of the demographics of the general Tokyo area.  The main target was the youth but the parents of the youth seemed to bring in the attention of the people surrounding the table.  Oshima and the other man glanced up and nodded in agreement.  Yuito stared at the paper for a second as his thoughts started to slowly gather in his mind.  The idea wasn’t his favorite but the high risk and high reward concept drew him deep into acceptance when the other man stood up and went up to Shinoda.

“Shinoda, it looks good but I think we need to sell more to our group here.”  He spoke as Shinoda stroked his chin.

“Masuda… Do you know of a way?”

“Yes, I do.”  He smiled with his finger pointed at Yuito.

Masuda opened up the room and cleaned up the used white board behind the screen.  He wrote out the new plan of getting the office involved by doing volunteer work around the area while promoting the idea out to the public.  The three studied the map and doodled down the main points of where the possible recruits would be located and slid out the insurance plans to the three.

“Review this for now and we will meet in three days.”  Masuda instructed the group as the three left first leaving the new formed trio in the room.

“This is bothersome.  We should be selling some policies out to the people rather than entice them into going into a talent show.”  Yuito growled aiming toward the two.

“Yuito-san, the thing is to promote the company.  It may not be a lot but if we push through, we can get a better look by our seniors.”  Rin reasoned as he stared at the whiteboard to confirm his notes.

Rie felt the auras of both as Yuito was in his seat brewing in his rage.  The woman felt her throat go dry reaching out for a cup of water.  Rin grabbed the pitcher from the table and poured out a cup for each of them and left them in the middle of the table for the other two to grab.  Rie dragged her cup concentrating on the notes as Yuito marched out of the room.  Rin placed his lips on the cup touching the water.

“Kitahara-san?”  Rin murmured.  “What do you really think of this?”

“Sigh… This is a challenge for anybody.”  She confessed.  “We have to go with it no matter our reservations.”

“I can do this all with my friend to help.”

“Rin!  If you have a friend who can do promotions, we can accomplish this quickly and get ourselves in good position to develop ourselves.”

“Yuito doesn’t seem to like the idea…”  Rin thought as Rie looked toward the door.

He couldn’t pent up any more as he headed toward the break room to get a cup of coffee as he glanced over to find a group of women chatting with each other.  Yuito didn’t want to attempt to even fathom the idea but knowing the situation, it was bad enough that he couldn’t get her to agree with him.  Then, a vibration caught his attention and opened his screen to a text.

Yuihan, this is Paru.  We need to talk.

He shuffled through his contacts and pressed the picture of his girlfriend smiling.  The few times she would ever smile for him was to cheer him up.  Even sex was unusual as her expression did not give away her true feelings but it was her way of loving him.  The rings tore at his heart as a click made it stop for a moment.

“Yuihan, are you alone?”

“Paru, you can tell me anything.”

“The thing is… I was wondering… If you are okay?  I know the job seems to consume most of your time.”

“Paru, don’t worry about me.”  Yuito bit down on his bottom lip as he could hear the concern running in her voice.  “How was lunch with Miorin?”

There was a slight silence between them as Yuito stared at the lukewarm coffee in his hand.  It wasn’t unusual waiting for answer from her but it seemed awkward at the moment he was considering his plans.

“It was great we had sandwiches.”

“I see.  Shall we go out tonight since I haven’t seen you for a while?”

“Sure.  Will six o clock do?”

“Fine.”

He firmly pressed the button to hang up on the call.  He tilt back the cup letting the black liquid rush down his throat before throwing it into the trash can.  Yuito turned to the women and nodded his head before heading out the break room.  As he passed through the cubicles, he observed the people furiously punching on their keyboards or talking to each other.  Yuito’s chest started to slowly collapse within him as the work seemed yeoman to many was the perfect fit for him.  He walked back into the room where the two were in the midst of brainstorming as they turned toward him.

“Did you need a break?”  Rie asked seeing her friend gently nodding his head.

“I needed to check up on my girlfriend too.”  He murmured as he glanced at the board.

“You guys seemed to be up for the challenge.”

“Maybe it might be a way to gain points from management.”  Rin explained as Yuito crossed his arms towards him.

“Masuda is hard to impress.  He has the most sense in the company but something is up if he was pushing this idea.  I feel he is under pressure from above to do an idea like this.  Do you guys feel that way?”

The room had gone silent.  Yuito’s words fluttered around the room as they ingested the idea that it was setup to fail if not someone else could do it to minimal success.  Was it meant to test them or to weed them out of the company?  The question was buzzing when Yuito waved his hand.

“It is just a thought but we must work hard to accomplish this for the boss.”  Yuito laughed as he headed up to the board to add his ideas.

Masuda peered through his blinds at the room before heading back to his desk, being vice president brought unused skills to his new job.  Masuda Yuu was built strong with his athletic background in basketball.  He was captain for two years as he brought home championships to Osaka but he was relatively shy towards woman.  Many had crushes on him but he couldn’t concentrate on one.  He had a few dates but many didn’t pan out until college where he had met a student that took his heart.

She was a year older than him with long, wavy hair.  His heart felt like a drum out of beat anytime she would walk past him and the one day he gathered the courage to ask her out was the unluckiest day of his life.  It started with the cold shower when the hot water pipe had been busted midway through the cleaning.  His shirt had gone missing with his shorts forcing him to venture in the only towel he had left to wash which was a child’s bath towel from his home town.  As he began to rush back, he did not see her in the hallway with a reading book in hand and collided with her to the carpet.  The towel fell upon her exposing his nude self.  A scream and charge later, he had been admitted to the office for conduct detrimental to the school.  He felt deflated after the series events that he began to tear up.

She came in and bowed to him before walking up to the administrator.  A few minutes of the two talking, Yuu had been released from a suspension applied to him.  She left without him noticing and saw the sticky note on the wall with a number on top.  He grabbed it and dialed the number in his dorm room.  The nectar sweet voice hooked him into another world as he slowly bloomed out from his shell.  Yuu wasn’t sure with his words and the chances seemed too many deemed by many to seize the opportunity.  He finally asked her out on a date after the fifth phone call and it started the long romance into engagement.

“Oshima…. I know you have a history with one of them.”

“Yes I do sir.  The thing is I don’t remember all too well how it went.”

“You sexually harassed him twice within twenty four hours.  Tell him how you feel.”

“I can’t because of Nyan.”

“She will understand on how you actually feel.  Just do so before you go nuts too.”  Yuu explained as Yuko slouched in her chair.

“How’s Nacchi?”

“She is fine.  We are having the first child soon.”

“Congratulations!”

“She is happy about the situation but we couldn’t decide on a date for the wedding.”

“I see.”  Yuko moaned.  “I want to have a nice wedding too.”

“Get the guy first and then worry about the event later.”  He smiled as he went back to his desk.  “This is going to be messy.”

@Cometerz: Rie shall be tortured again but now it was clearer from before

@ashura: you will always be a kid just in an adult body XD

@Yuki: Shall I make it easy? XD

Chapter 8

Rie drew to the conclusion that she might have been the cause of the breakup.  She closed the hood over her head tightening it over her face as she quietly crawled out of the window and landed in the bushes.  The material tugged against the branch revealing her identity as the smoke trail lingered in front of her.  She pulled it over head and pranced the other direction as he turned around.

“Rie-chan?”

She froze in place turning to find the trail had ended and shifted to the air above.  The cigarette flew into the air and finally landing on the ground with a firm step over the butt.

“I told myself I would stop smoking but I could never confirm to myself that it would be worth the time to...”  He said speaking up into the night sky.

“Yuito... why?”

“Do I need to explain?”  He struck back squinting his eyes towards her.  “I would ask why were you even near this area.”

Rie shook her head leaning toward the other direction as she felt the grip of resistance.  She glanced back to find him glaring at her.  It was not him from a while back.  This was not the Yuito she knew.  He was shy and would smile when she waved at him.  Rie wanted to react but she stood there gazing into his brown eyes.

“Answer my question.”  Rie spat.

“Paru... and I met couple years ago at a party.  She had just graduated high school and had been invited by her friends.  She was shy but she had a good time as I approached her.  We spent two hours just talking when her friends were too drunk to keep up with the party.  She gone with them but I had asked her for her number before she left.”

“Is it because of me?”  Rie asked as Yuito gritted his teeth.

“We went on two dates before we were officially a couple but the problem came when we were with each other.  I didn't feel aroused by her.”

“So you didn't feel ready for her?”

“I wanted to be with her so badly but I knew she was active.  How could I not be aroused by her?”  He shouted as Rie managed to escaped from his grip.

“You were so worried about lust, that you forgot about her.”  Rie stated as Yuito took a seat on the pavement.

“Paru never did love me how I was into her.  I knew that for a while after being with others I despised.”  He replied resting his chin on his fist.

“Then why bother yourself through a relationship like this.” Rie argued as Yuito roared and stood up in front of her.

“Because... I wanted it to work out for myself.”  He confessed.

Rie swallowed the thick air and turned away from him.  Her feet felt like stone as she wanted to return home.  However, she saw something that he never had shown in his life.  She extended her hands running them along his jawline as she propped a smile.

“Yuito... I don't want you to do that again.”  She warned him before turning away.

“Rie-chan... Please forgive me.”

“Yuihan, I forgive you.  Give some time to yourself to heal.”

Rie walked with haste as the streets were starting to be crowded by the gangs.  She weaved through the groups leading to the building.  She battled with the fact of Yuito's relationships in high school.  No one really understood his personality which led him to be an outcast among the population.  Rie spent some time understanding the issues he had and assisted in his blooming from behind the scenes to the man he was now.

As the thoughts were starting to create nostalgia, she felt her head hit the pillow and closed her eyes for the night.  The image lingered for a bit as she snoozed onto the next morning leaving her problems during sleep.

Masuda grew concerned over the lack of progress with the project that he had decided to step out for a few hours to avoid any lingering issues.  He headed to the only sanctuary that would give him peace for the time being and sat in his private room.

Songs would would come out non-stop as he sang in a controlled tone and gave him the release he needed for the day.  Masuda was pushing himself to get better as time seemed to go by slowly when there was little to celebrate.  Arriving home, his wife was struggling to get to the door for the usual greeting.  Masuda had been quite aware of his wife's health and just smiled as he reached out for the unborn baby.

“A few more weeks until you get to be a dad.”  She said gleefully as he posed a weak smile towards her.

His body landed on the couch face down into the pillows.  He knew his limit was being tested but he couldn't show her that he was in a rough spot but luckily she never took cues easily and brought out a tall, frosted glass and beer onto his table.  Masuda heard the bottle touch the table and sprung up to help her.

“Thanks.”  He said under his breath as he untwist the cap to the frothy beverage and poured it out himself.

The suds immediately filled his nose with the familiar scent as he tilt his head back and let the smooth liquid slide down into his core.  The effects came quickly with his smile growing by the second.  The usually tense personality came unwound, loosening his tie from his neck and turning on the television to his favorite team.

Nacchi observed the man's behavior and grinned at his playful child-like enthusiasm.  She grew to like him as a person as he was a rough around the edges.  She liked that from him.  Nacchi joked that was the lone trait that attracted to him but truthfully he was the piece that she had been missing.

That faithful day was similar like other days especially how things ended up being in the first place.  She had exited the classroom heading for her dorm when he came with a deer in the headlights look.  She couldn't resist the other side that made him attractive.  The caring side many hadn't seen from him.  He was different than many men but still kept his front about being masculine.

Three dates was the green light to getting the step closer but Nacchi had gone forward to send in her graduation papers to Masuda's advice.  She managed to find a stable job before the downturn while Masuda had gone through a few job before landing it a year ago.  Since then, Nacchi decided to take on a housewife role which Yuu was against it but hesitantly agreed to the idea when the job market started to get tight again.

However, she wanted one thing that made Masuda furious.  He never wanted a kid until they decided to marry but Nacchi had insisted on doing it before as she seemed suited to nurture a kid in the present.  Yuu had made the offer before but insisted it be temporary with the engagement.  Nacchi threw herself onto him and consummated the love.

“Nacchi, How are the wedding plans going with your friend?”  He asked resting his head on the couch cushion.

“We are... on track.”

Nacchi looked at the pamphlet and let it hit the table.  She had talked to her but it was booked til the summer season.  The wedding was planned to be in August at the earliest which would give them time to tend to the baby for the time being but with that time too it had given her a chance to refresh on things.

She waddled back to the study where she had a textbook open about the marketing atmosphere.  Nacchi had grown to love the marketing sector of companies.  However, being a woman brought many challenges which had given her a sense of will in any company.  She had looked over the list of references and the name that popped up made her wonder if she was still there.  She grabbed her phone and saw her name on the first listing.

“Moshi moshi”

“Ah Akimoto-sama.”

“Nacchi?  Ohisashiburi.”  The deep-voiced woman greeted.

“Same to you.  Are you still working for that moving company?”

“Yes I am.... I remember you are on maternity leave right?”

“Well I had quit before the maternity leave because they were going to put me in the back office.”

“I see.  Well I don't exactly have a position open but I can create one just for you.  When is your planned date?”

“In about two weeks.”

“Okay, so we can look into a June date for your return?”

“That's fine.”

Nacchi hung up the phone and sighed at her opportunity when she felt something sticky.  She looked down at the carpet seeing the fresh puddle of liquid on the floor.  She quickly stood up looked toward the living room.

“Yuu-kun, my water broke.”  She yelled as the man struggled to get up from his position and grabbed the bag Nacchi packed before heading over to the hospital by car.

Feeling his head pounding from the adrenaline, he closed his eyes for bit and pulled the car over when he saw a man with a cigarette on the side of the road.

“Sir, can you help me drive my wife to the hospital?”  He panicked as the guy dropped the butt and went into the driver seat.

The ride though the tail end of the evening traffic was smooth as the guy pulled them into the emergency room.  Yuu helped his laboring wife out of the car as the guy sat in the car as the nurses took her in.

“Thank you, sir.”

“No problem, Masuda-sama.”  He smiled.

“Yoko...yama?”

Yokoyama let Masuda hop inside and drove the car into the parking area and tossed the keys to him.

“Thank you.”  He bowed as he lit another cigarette.

“I should thank you for helping me out too.”

Masuda stood staring at him as Yokoyama headed toward the smoking area to finish up his light as Masuda headed to the delivery room.

Chapter 9

Rin stood at the train stop with a smirk on his face.  He wasn’t impressed by Yuko’s words but the potential seemed to be there.  The train stopped opening its door to the half-filled car taking a seat with his back to the sun.  The warm sensation placed a spell under him closing his eyes.  A sudden jolt awoke him from his mini slumber into a woman’s lap.

“Sumimasen.”  He apologized before glancing up quickly seeing the victim of his head.

“Sashihara-kun!”

“Shiichan!  What are you doing here?”

“I’m heading home.  I guess you must be too.”

Rin suddenly remembered seeing her in self-improvement class couple years ago and suddenly clicking as friends although it would only go that far as she wasn’t committed to a relationship.  He smiled in seeing her again as she suddenly grabbed him by the collar pulling them close to each other.

“What have you been doing?”  She asked before letting out a yawn.

“Working at a company as an intern.”  He replied slouching in his seat.

“I see.”

“How about you?”

“Secretary at a law firm although I’m getting sick of that job.  I might quit joining a company my friend had just gotten into.”  She sighed as the train pulled up to the next station.

“Cool.  She must be doing well.”

Shiichan’s eyes shot through Rin like a laser as he quickly bit on his tongue to the delight of the woman.  She ran her fingers through her short, brown hair leaning back in her seat gazing at the buildings outside.  Rin closed his eyes again with the vivid image of her friend.  The curves of her body drew out the surprise that seemed to relax him before a hand grasped at his shoulder.

“Whoa!  I’ll see you later.”

Rin waved his hand as he went back to his nap for a moment before shooting out of his seat when his stop came up.  Exiting the station, the streets were filled with youngsters that wanted to get away from the adults.  He walked with his head down to the complex where he waved to the usual people he would during his day before dropping his stuff in to the room.

The smell of cologne stung his nose as he headed over to the fridge for food which had the lone container of fried noodles from a couple days ago.  The windows were glued shut making the room cold with the night wind pounding the glass pane.  The room itself was plain with white curtains.  Rin wasn’t a messy person but he had his faults looking at the patch work he had made throughout his room.

The sound of his ring tone caught him by surprise making him hunt for his phone in a furious matter.  Throwing his stuff away the bag shook cluing him to the phone and answered it.

“Sashihara-kun?”  The voice hooked his heart.

“Oshima-san, what’s the problem?”

“I need you.”  She cried.

He dropped his arm gripping onto the phone as the cries continued loudly through the speaker.  Rin bit onto his lower lip as his body started to burn again.  The passion within him wanted to follow his heart but he thought of the words before placing the phone near his ears.

“Why not come over to my place?”  He asked as the woman agreed and hung up.

Rin jumped onto his couch confused in his thoughts staring at the door waiting for the feint knock of the woman.  He grabbed onto the covering and dug his nails into the material.  Waiting for her seemed like forever as he tapped his feet.  The place had become unbearable to stay and rushed out the door to the hallway.  His heart banged against his chest when a tall woman came out of the elevator with long brownish hair and a peach peach dress that ended at her knees.

“Are you Rin?”  She asked grabbing him by the collar.

“Yes I am.”  He replied as she loosened her grip.

“There's something I shall tell you before she comes here.”  She briefly smiled before turning back to her serious mood.  “You can only solve her problem.  I'm fed up with her.”

Before he could answer, he felt her lips upon his.  Her hands went to his face as she battle through the obstruction and managed to catch the texture of his tongue.  She pulled back her embrace and releasing an open hand to his face.  Rin crumbled to the ground seeing her venture to the stairs.

“What have you done, Yuko?”
--------

Masuda felt his hands shake with his fifth cup of coffee.  Being alone in the waiting room, the air grew cold as he waited for the news.  Doubt never entered his mind about his wife's condition but time seemed to be going slowly as he waited for the delivery.

“Masuda-san, you can sleep for now.”  A nurse walking by spoke as the liquid was going down millimeters at a time.

“Thank you.  How is my wife?”

“She is doing good.  The contractions are getting closer together so it will be soon.  Please take a nap.”

Masuda placed the cup onto the table and crossed his arms as the eyes fluttered against the will of the male and nodded to sleep.  He suddenly found a boy in his hands gleefully looking at him.  His wife gleaming under the lights as he stood there and teared up at him.  Yuu extended out his finger and watched his newborn son reach for it gripping it firmly.

He shook off his slumber with the sound his stomach growling and ventured through the hospital.  He wished for a scent of food as he walked down the corridor where there was a vending machine filled with instant noodles and paid for one.  He grabbed the chopsticks from the side and mixed it with the hot water.  The steam snaked to his nose as he grabbed the bit of the noodles.

“Masuda-kun?”

“Yes....”

“I didn't know you were here.”  She said.

He turned to a woman with heavy makeup on in a nurse's uniform.  The droops in her eyes were visible yet she had a smile as he glared at her for a moment.  Suddenly, he made out the appearance of the woman and placed the bowl down to hug her.

“Ohisashiburi.”

“Masuda-kun, why are you here?”

“My fiance is giving birth at any moment.”  He explained to the surprise of the nurse.

“Really?  This woman is one lucky man!”

“Thanks Ohori-senpai!”

“Yuu-kun, Is this the same girl you showed your thing too?”

He nodded giving off a smile as the nurse reached into her pocket and handed him to sticks, one colored blue and one colored pink.  He stood staring at the two as he handed back the pink one.  He wasn't sure of the baby's sex but his hunches had never been wrong in the past and he didn't want to go against it so he held the blue one tightly.

“Same as college, Guts Masuda.”

“Ohori-sempai, how have you been holding up?”

She forced a smile onto her face and pointed him toward the delivery area.  She glanced at the window seeing the smile slowly wither away.  Ohori Megumi had gone through enough pain to stay an old maid but she managed to find someone who had given his heart away and looking back she felt giving back more.  She explained the many obstacles and Masuda understood it patting her on the back when a radio call came in.

“She's about to give birth!”

“Masuda-kun, go be a father.”  Ohori encouraged as he ran to the room.

The nurses inside handed him gloves, a mask, coat, hairnet, and footies over the shoes.  He headed over to the delivery table.  The face of pain emulated over to Masuda as he flashed a thumbs up to her and saw her smile when the push forced out the new life form.  The doctor did a quick clean up and handed it over to Nacchi smiling at the baby.  Masuda glanced over and looked at his future wife and kid.

“Yuu, you can take him.”  She requested.

“Okay...”

He grew hesitant with the baby in his hands, lifting it slowly toward his warm chest.  The smell of beer exited through his mask making the baby excited.  Yuu held out his finger and the baby watched it closely before extending out its arm gripping it with its petite fingers.  Yuu closed his eyes and handed back the baby back to his fiance.

“What's wrong?”  Nacchi asked as he fell to the floor.

“I can't help this feeling coming over me.”  He explained as the eyes had become red.  “It's our boy.”

“It is.  Also look outside.”

The image of specks from the sky  crossed their window.  The doctor and nurses stood in awe as it floated down to the ground below.  He turned toward her with a smile on his face and removed his mask.

“Let's name him Yuki.”  He suggested.

“Yuki? I like that.”

Answer will be brief but that's part of the Yuuko problem

Chapter 10

Yuito stepped out to the designated smoke area relaxing the lit cigarette between his fingers before placing it between his lips a shadow came from his right with short brown hair wearing a heavy brown coat.  Yuito noticed his face full of stubble as he nodded his head toward the man.

“Can I bum a cigarette?”  He asked seeing the pack in his breast pocket and Yuito offered him a stick and lit it for him.

“The nights have been chilly.”  He said blowing a stream of smoke into the thick air dissipating from the light.

“It has been lately but I always looked forward to a hot bowl of ramen.”  Yuito dropped the butt to the ground stepping on it before walking away from the building.

“Thanks for the cigarette.”  He waved.

Yuito spun around motioning his fingers towards the man as he led to the nearby shop.  The chattering of people was muttered by the thoughts in his mind.  He knew the simple order of char siu ramen would satisfy his hunger but that void seemed too huge as he ordered blindly to the front man.  The smell of beer was prevalent in the room with the slurping of soup filled the orchestra among the patrons.

“Are you here alone?”  The seductive voice caught his attention turning to his right to a feminine looking person with short brown wavy hair.

“Why do you want to know?”  Yuito asked to a chuckle and noticed the throat giving away her gender.

“I’m not trying to hook you up.”  She laughed lifting a finger to the bartender on the other side of the restaurant.  “Have a drink.”

Yuito looked down at the golden elixir for a moment before grabbing the handle and taking a large gulp.  He pounded the bar catching the attention of the patrons around him as the short-haired woman grabbed him by the shoulder to sit him down.  The hot bowl came to him as the woman pulled the alcohol away and Yuito instantly dug into the noodles and soup.  The pain seemed to slowly flow away as the woman beside him encouraged through his efforts.

“You are quite attractive.”  She whispered into his ear immediately stopping his progress.

“Sorrrry… I’m not looking for anyone.”

“I wasn’t trying to imply anything but you look like you broke up with someone.”

Yuito pierced into the woman as she extended her hand into his grasp.  He felt them clasped together drawing closer to her.  His hands released and went back to his half-filled bowl of broth and noodles as another person approached him from his left.

“Sae-chan must be on the hunt.”  She scoffed catching the woman by surprise.

“Sayaka!  Stop running into my territory.”  Her cheeks puffed up to the amusement of the other woman.

“Sorry, sir.  She is taken but only wants to ask for some money.”  Sayaka saw her cheeks puff up to a balloon ready to pop.

“I do have something you guys might be interested in.”  Yuito handed a card to both of them before lifting the bowl to his lips tilting it back with the warm, salty broth hitting his throat.

He saw them to his right chatting discreetly with each other casually finishing his bowl.  Yuito knew that it would be opportunistic for anybody to take on the challenge when they turned and was handed a card.

“We run a scouting agency.”  The brown-haired woman explained.

“This is will help us if we can talent to come into our studio.  Who is the contact person?”  The other woman asked.

He looked at them and gave a business card over to them.  He didn’t know why he didn’t say his name but the card brought the glimmer out of their eyes.  He wasn’t sure why the smiles were wide as they were as the short-haired woman grabbed him by the shoulder.

“Masuda Yuu?  Guts Masuda?”  She spat as Yuito returned a confused look.

“Guts Masuda?”

The duo explained about the guy named Guts Masuda.  He was a risk-taking player in basketball who would take any shot at any placed even if a defender was present.  They add that he took so many charges in a game that they needed to drag him out of the game to prevent the other team from fighting him.  Masuda was also a social person in general and loved to talk about whatever was on his mind.  They finally looked at each other for a brief moment after explaining the exploits of his boss.

“What’s wrong?”

“He changed after seeing that woman.”  Sae explained.

“That game he led them there and he didn’t show up.”  Sayaka added.

“We still call him Guts but no one else has ever talked about it.  He fell in love with her and wasn’t the same.”

“Well, you have my information.  I need to report back to him tomorrow about our progress.”  Yuito explained leaving his money onto the counter before leaving.

He felt a hand prop onto his shoulder and turned to a smiling woman.  “Sorry for that.”

“It’s fine.  Give me a call for a meeting.”

“Chotto matte!” Sayaka yelled.  “Before the meeting can we design a plan to deliver to Masuda-kun?”

“Tomorrow morning at 9:00?”  Yuihan asked with the two nodding their heads in unison.  See you then.”

Yuito returned into the night heavy with the breathing as the rain lightly dropped onto his head.
------

Rie turned to her alarm clock and slammed on the snooze button as she stared at the red numbers.  Her mind became in tuned to the report day at the office.  She had no answers to give them as the problem became the bickering between the two men.  She stepped into the shower letting the water hit her as she awoke from her temporary slumber.  A plot seemingly came into her mind and finished up quickly with the floor covered in puddles.

She dried up her hand writing down the thought when her phone rang.  She scooted out grabbing her phone from the bureau to see an unknown number appear on her phone.  Rie let it head to voice mail when she opened the mail a voice caught her attention, it was Rin.

Rie-chan, I need to talk about our meeting.  Yuihan called so can we meet up in ten?

She pressed the phone icon and heard the few rings before the man’s voice caught her attention.

“Rie-chan, I’m at the café outside the office.  Yuihan has found us two people willing to help us get talent and media purposes.”

“Honto!  Sugoi!”  She replied lifting her arms up.

“Hayaku!”

Rie hung up the phone and ran over to her closet laying out her clothing for the day.  She looked at the black coat feeling the slight chill in the air and placed it across of her as she swiftly put everything on before leaving the apartment.  Running through the lobby, the streets were populating with the people outside weaving through the crowd.  The crowd was rushing through everything when she saw the café and walked inside seeing two women next to Rin.

“Ohayou!”

“Rie-chan!”  Rin shot his hand up and saw the two bowed towards her.  “They are Akimoto Sayaka and Miyazawa Sae of Twin Towers Scouting Agency.”

“I’m Kitahara Rie.  Nice to meet you.”

“We are nice to meet you too.”  The long-haired woman greeted as she gave her a pamphlet about their company.

Rie intently looked through the information about the past events they have hosted.  Many were small at the school auditoriums but one at the concert hall caught her eyes.

“Did you guys sell out the concert hall?”  She asked keeping her eyes on the pamphlet.

“Three-fourths capacity for a solo concert.”  Sae explained.

“That’s good, who was it for?”

“Itano Tomomi’s Japan Tour through the Tokyo ward.”  Sayaka added catching the intrigue of the workers when Yuihan took a seat next to Rin as a round of water came out to set up the start of the meeting.

“Twin Towers have asked us to get a full plan from our boss.  Unfortunately, his wife had given birth and he may not make it today.”  Yuito started as the chestnut-haired woman walked up to the table and dragged a chair into the group.

“Sumimasen, I’m Shinoda.  I want to hear about the meeting.  If you guys, don’t mind to let me sit in here.”  He took a seat opening up the informational pamphlet about the company.

“The issue is that we need to recruit young people to perform on a small stage.  How many can we accompany there to make it successful?”

“We are looking at 20-30 participants at the current location but I feel we should propose a bigger place with a bigger prize.”  Sae expressed the dynamics through hand motions as Shinoda grabbed his pen and placed it on top of the paper.

“That will be a problem if we can’t get it approved in time.”  Shinoda noted.

“It won’t be a problem for the smaller venue.”  Sayaka spoke as her partner turned toward her.

Sae turned to her and started to explain the situation with both bickering at each other.  Shinoda crossed his arms looking at the three digging in the pamphlet details.  The two looked back holding a brave face as they wrote down a number forwarding it over to Shinoda.  Taking a peek, she handed it over to the three who nodded quickly as Shinoda extended a hand to the two women.

“We can take care our side of the deal.  I'll leave you guys to get us the sponsors and media.”  Shinoda smiled as the two exited quickly.

Rin felt his phone vibrate and opened it to twenty messages from Yuko.  Reading through each one, he had bitten on his lip and headed toward the door.

“Where are you going Sashihara?”  Shinoda yelled.

“I... have an emergency.”  He replied as he ran off to the building.

Rin passed through security to the first elevator he could find sliding into the open space riding up to the office.  He squeezed out of the area and headed to the bathroom.  The place was quiet for most part except for the air conditioning vent above him.  A hand grabbed him into the women bathroom directly into a stall.  The heavy smell of perfume filled his nose as he battled with her tongue.  Her body warm with excitement was held by his cold hands.  Sounds came quickly from her mouth halting the man's progress.

“Yuko... Explain to me something.”  He said as she knelt down unzipping his pants searching for the item.

“Rin, not now.”  She replied as his junk was halfway to maximum.

“Now!”  He demanded as Yuko stood up and held her hand onto his cheek.

“I told her it was over.  I found someone who likes me.”

“Yuko... Not for this reason.”

“I don't care.  If you were mine, I wouldn't be at work until the afternoon.”

Rin grabbed her shoulders and slammed her into the door.

“Get yourself together!”  He roared.  “I cannot be here because of your lust.  You have to tell me everything.”

Yuko felt a lump in her throat as she glared at him.  She knew Rin wasn't there just for pleasure.  He wanted to give her a chance to recover from her past but she wasn't allowing the heart to open up with lust-filled days of taking the pleasure regardless.  Rin pressed her body up to her and forced a hug.  Yuko wrapped her arms around his head and gave him an embrace through her tongue.

“One more time.”  She whispered as Rin grabbed her right leg and pushed it into her body.

“Excuse me!”  A voice yelled as the two continued until the knock at the stall opened the door.  The two people spilled out onto the floor where they looked up at her.

“Rin!”

“Shiichan!”  He replied quickly standing up and buckled his pants up before leaving the room.

Rin cursed himself running into the office with beads of sweat running down the side of his face.  His co-workers were not present and just became worried to see them once again.  He sat in the chair until someone came in and was shocked at the two together.

“Rin!  Explain that!”

“What did he do?”  Rie asked as Shiichan dragged him out the door.

“We shall continue after work.”

The questions of the whole story XD

Chapter 11

Shiichan was well aware that Rin was in relation with the woman.  She felt a fire within her chest that there was no way to forgive him in that situation but dragging him by the arm was enough to gather her senses together.  Once the dragging seemed a little easier, she stopped into the cubicle and threw him into the chair.

“What was that in there?”  She asked giving him a smug look

“She had asked for it and I went in.”

“Sigh…  I never expected that on my first day but avoid doing it in the bathroom again.”

“Right.”  He said walking back to the work area.

Rin felt his body giving out more sweat than usual as the other two furiously worked through their roles.  He looked up at the clock every few minutes before looking back at the stack of papers in front of him.  He couldn’t shake off the words but the urges called when he finally stood up and jogged toward the bathroom.  The stalls were quiet to get his thoughts together and exhaled his stress.

“Has Rin been jittery as of late?”  Rie asked to Yuito staring at his screen.

“I’m not sure…  But I would need a cigarette soon.”  He responded.

“They are bad.”  She said in a soft voice as his head popped up.

“I know.  But this can wait.”  He shook his head as he stood up to go to the printer.

There was brief silence before a jubilant celebration erupted outside their area.  They knew it was the baby announcement and closed the door.  Yuito slipped the flyer to Rie and shook her head at the design.  Yuito gritted his teeth as Rie printed out hers.  The picture was lighter in comparison and shrugged his shoulders in agreement.

“I’ll send this over to Shinoda for final approval and we can sit back for now.”  Rie smiled as her partner leaned back on his chair closing his eyes.

Shinoda pinched her forehead as she returned to the office.  Rie knocked twice before being allowed in and dropped off the flyer to her.  Shinoda glanced at it and smiled for a brief moment before placing it down on the table.  She grinned at it before ripping the flyer.

“What’s wrong with it?”

“This is too incredible from our company.”  She replied.  “Send it over to the Twin Towers for copying.”

“Understood!”

The familiar ringtone awoke her senses as she picked it up and shut the shades.  She pressed the button to turn on the phone.  Shinoda could only know that she would eventually call especially her relationship issues.

“Haruna, do you want to drink?”

“Yes…”

She grabbed her thick coat and marched out into the cool afternoon to the nearby bar.  Seeing her being the lone one on the bar, Shinoda placed down her money and got her whiskey on ice.  She took a sip of the liquor feeling the sight burn slide down her throat.

“Why do I always call you?”

“I’m your best friend.  My question is why you always find the worst in men.”  Shinoda asked as she took another sip of the drink.

“It was a woman…”

Shinoda forced the last sip down as she heard it was a female.  The evil concept of another female was intriguing to her as she could see the death of Haruna’s soul at the moment.  She reached out her hand and held up her chin forcing a smile from her.  Haruna downed her drink and moved into the space between the seats touching their lips before into a full-blown embrace.

“I don’t feel filled yet.”  Shinoda mumbled breaking away from the kiss.

“Alcohol?”

“Yes…  Let me take a few more before we start the meal.”  Shinoda smiled as another drink of whiskey.

The afternoon turned to night as the women stumbled out into the early evening.  Their faces magenta after the drinks headed to the closest place they could find.  After paying for the hotel, Shinoda jumped onto the bed followed by her partner.  Haruna slowly removed her blouse and held onto her chest as she broke her concentration to a kiss.

“Haruna, aren’t you going to continue?”

“Mari-chan, I love you.”  She whispered.

“I know.”

She continued on the furious streak over Shinoda until she was in bare minimum. Haruna achieved the same accomplishment before heading underneath the sheets.  The sounds orchestrated the mood of a drunken natural concert to the peak of the emotions before dying into the darkness surrounding them.
-----
Rin returned to the area seeing there was only half an hour left to the day as Rie came in with a gleaming expression after the acceptance of the flyer.  Yuito grabbed a metal container and popped a mint into his mouth staring at his screen when he pressed the button.

“I’ll be going.”

“Yuito, do you have a time for a drink?”  Rie asked as he hesitantly nodded.

“I’ll be here for a while.”  Rin said under his breath when Rie left with Yuito.

He wrapped up his work into the place had been a barren wasteland when Yuko came out of her office.  She ran the hands through his hair and pressed onto his lips.  Rin picked her up into the corner office immediately undressing her and going forward into the lustful embrace.  He could only see the beauty in front of him as the placed had grown with the essence of the two.  The moans were the only disruptions in the area ending quickly with Yuko on his arm.

“Do you want to drink?”

“Sure.  However, I want to get a private room.”

“Why?”  She questioned with a confused expression.

“I want to ask you if we should continue this process.”

Yuko looked up with a smirk on her face.  She wasn’t sure why but it seemed to work out and took him into the bar where the private rooms was the cheapest.  They went into the back area concealed in black.  Entering through a door, there was a booth with two couches and took their seats.  Rin ordered a pitcher of sake cocktail with two glasses in ice.

Yuko poured the first glass for the male before pouring one for her.  They touched glasses before taking a sip of the smooth liquid.  He lounged onto the seat staring at Yuko placing her glass down on the table.

“What is your true intention?”  Yuko asked scooting over.

“I want you to become somewhat closer to me…”

“What do you mean by that?”

“Like become my girlfriend so I won’t feel like your sex slave.”

Yuko kicked back her drink and gently moved forward toward him placing her hand on his lap.  Rin heard the sound and grabbed her hands.  She lunged forward surprising him with a gentle kiss on the lips before feeling up her chest again.

“I’m serious.”  He warned as Yuko drew a circle around his chest with her fingertip.

“I know… But the answer is no.”

“Why?”

Yuko had her reasons just looking back at Haruna, who knew of her fickleness and a few others who acknowledge her lifestyle was free and easy.  Then, it was the one night that they had met that came like a fastball.  She couldn’t resist trying the field.  However, she knew one day would come and bite her but the time wasn’t ready to realize it when she saw him.

“I want to feel free.”

“I see.”

“It isn’t that I don’t like you but would you ever consider having me to become stable after what I had been doing all this time?”

Rin nodded.  “It wouldn’t make you feel like a slut.”

Yuko’s smile had turned into disgust.  Rin had hit it on the dot and he saw the string being strung right in front of him.  She thought about doing everything to prove he was wrong but she saw what he was meaning.  There was something Rin wanted her to have.  Deep down it was Rin bringing out the internal fear of hers.  Yuko poured a drink and sipped it before falling into his arms weeping through her hands.

“If you want me, take me.  I didn’t know you were trying to be kind.”

“Yuko… gomen.”

“I never expected that from anyone.  You were trying to watch out for me and you were looking beyond the lust driven nights.”

“It was always like that.  I didn’t want one night stands.  I wanted a relationship.”

“Thank you.”  She said taking another sip of her glass leaning onto her new beau.
----
Yuito lid his cigarette puffing a cloud into the sky.  The thick air left its mark as the lady came out of the building with the image of the man in her mind.  The two walked to the isakaya on the backside of the building where it had emptied out after the fellows were forced home by their wives.  It smelt of grilled fish and beer as they took their seats near the bar.

“Beer.”  He grunted holding up two fingers to the waiter.

“Can we also have some small dishes?”  Rie added as Yuito killed his lit cigarette.

Yuito wasn’t really sure what to really think anymore since he finally broke it off with Paru.  Everything had become a blur in his head.  He wanted to break off the relationship but couldn’t stand the way he did it.  Rie saw him go into his world when the beer came and she poured him a cup.

“Yuito… what’s up?’

“It’s nothing.  Work has me riled up at the moment.”

“Oh…  You need to unwind.”  She suggested as he broke a smile.

“Thanks.”

The dishes of miso and teriyaki items came out of the kitchen to their table.  Yuito was quite amazed by her appetite as he drank most of the bottle.  He took bits and pieces from each dish as he slouched in his seat looking across to Rie.

“Can I tell you something?”  Yuito peered as she finished the 12th dish of the night.

“Sure.”

“I always wanted to ask you about me in general.  Did you ever want me to ask you out?”

“All the time.”  She smiled as Yuito shook his head pouring another glass for him.

“I never did because I thought you were too good for me.”

“What do you mean?”

“Kitahara Rie was my model girlfriend but she could never be touched by someone like me.”

“I always thought you were beyond my league.”  She laughed.

“I never respected a person until I met you again.  My life was running into a spiral and I finally got out only feeling empty.  I finally reached a star tonight.”  He said downing the last of the beer.

“Yuito… why not consider this a chance to figure out what could have happened.”

He smiled widely.  The words were finally the bell that he needed to get to the next round and with a chance to finally take the opportunity at her.  Yuito shook his head in disbelief as the next words seemed to come out of the blue.

“Maybe, we can hang at my place?”  He suggested as she tilted her head.

“Sure.  I think I’ll take that offer.”  She answered paying her side of the bill.

Chapter 12 Part 2

Nacchi was discharged a few days later with the baby and the elated father.  As they dropped off their stuff, the house was suddenly different to both of them.  Yuu felt the sudden urge to grab the boy and take him around the house.  He looked at the baby and watched it yawn for the first time before letting a screeching cry.  Yuu lifted him up to the table as Nacchi grabbed a diaper from the bag.

“Are you sure you can do it?”

“I can figure it out.”  He smiled as he ripped off the loaded diaper and threw it into the trash bag.

Yuu froze as he stared at his son slowly calming down from the cries and grabbed the wipes from the bag to clean his son before throwing powder on the backside.  Sliding the diaper underneath, he finished the job and noticed the looseness of the diaper.  He gently placed him down adjusting the straps around his miniscule waist and picked him up again to the cooing of his son.

“Yuki is so cool like his father.”  She commented as Yuu took him into the bedroom.

He laid him onto the bed and watched him turn to his side laughing at the man.  Yuki stuck out his arm with the finger pointing towards him.  Yuu stuck out his finger observing the baby’s reaction and wrapped his tiny hand around his finger.  The baby began pulling and the loud sound scared the baby to his mother’s arms.

“Yuki got scared.”  He began to explain when Nacchi lowered her shirt to feed the baby.

“Looks like he’s hungry.”  She smiled as Yuu walked over to the kitchen to see the empty refrigerator.

“Honey, I’m going to get some dinner.”  He yelled while he grabbed his coat.

Yuu let out a yawn against the light wind tugging on the ends of his coat walking towards the sanctuary of ready-made food.  He entered into a half empty shelf of food.  The cashier stood smiling at him while keeping her eyes on the door near the beverage area.  Yuu walked up with a smirk as she pointed over to the door and out came a man holding a box and slowly loading up the area.  Yuu nodded his head as he watched him unload like a child waiting for his favorite candy to be restocked.

Once the man finished he grabbed a variety of items and placed them onto the counter.  He saw the cashier ring it up when a man with his hood on dragged into the store.  Yuu could recognize the shoulder and knew it meant trouble but it had to be revealed.  He grabbed his bag and walked out slowly eyeing the guy for a few seconds before he saw the shiny object in his hand.  He grabbed his phone and called the police hiding himself a few windows down from the entrance.  He hung up quickly once he saw the transfer of money and waited until the hooded man came out.  Yuu pounced on him taking him to the pavement.  He managed to disarm him with an elbow to the nose.

“What the hell?”

“Stealing convenience stores are bad.”  He grunted when he saw the lights.

The thief uttered an exasperated sigh as Yuu let the policeman take over the scene without realizing about the food and smacked his face about that when a person came up to him in a nice suit to hand him a gift certificate.  He smiled at the gesture and handed it back to him.

“A thank you is sufficed.”  He said before walking back with semi-warm food in hand.

Nacchi tilted her head when he arrived home dusty but she just smiled as their bundle of joy was out for the night.  He popped it into the microwave and heated it up a bit.  Once they had everything warmed up, they placed it onto the table and ate quietly glancing at the sleeping baby.
------
Shinoda knew many things about Haruna and her ways but there was one thing that she had to accomplish.  It wasn’t easy to gain her trust but once she saw the gleam of hers, she felt stuck in the spider’s web.  Haruna had her but Shinoda acknowledged the trap being set and allowing herself take on the challenge.  However, Mariko had her chances to take on the opportunity it was being presented.

“Mari-chan, can we go out?”  She asked with her body being wrapped by a blanket.

“You sure?  Do you want to be around another womanizer?”  She saw Haruna sigh as she walked over to the bathroom.

Mariko gritted her teeth after saying it and placed her hand on the door, “We can but it will only lead to more trouble.”

“I know.  But I like the clubs.”

“Okay.”

Shinoda was unusual in terms of the scene.  She would stand out as a sore thumb with her figure so she went with a t-shirt and jean skirt look to appear sensual compared to Haruna’s hip-hugging dress that cut at the mid-thigh.  Happily, she led them out into the hallway while Shinoda held her chin up as they headed out into the club.  She feared the worst but luckily it was not packed as expected.

“I think this is good for you.”  She spoke above the loud speaker.

“Maybe, I can charm them…”  Haruna suggested as she grabbed her martini and headed to the other side where two men were sitting.

Mariko watched her get the two men but it hurt her to witness the unfurling of Haruna.  She came in to get the younger woman out of the way and headed into the bathroom.  Mariko pressed her up against the wall feeling up her body while their lips met forcefully.  She pulled back feeling the tears roll down her face and pounding the stalls with her fist.

“You’re not her.  You are yourself.  Don’t do it to punish yourself.”

“Mariko…  Why do you want to be with me?  I never can be with someone.”

“No!”  She yelled.  “You are with me.  Believe in me!”

Haruna felt the weight pour upon her as she saw the eyes.  Mariko always had a poker face.  Haruna was never willing to solve it but this time it wasn’t her.  This was the truth coming from her.  Haruna couldn’t let go that feature of hers and brushed her hair back.

“Mariko…  If you stay with me, you will only suffer.”  She whispered.

“Suffering with you is better than having nothing else to live for.  I can’t stand it anymore.  I want you to not torture yourself and finally live up to who you really are.  Kojima Haruna.”

“That is really nice of you.  I want to go home.”

Mariko wiped away her tears and grabbed her hand out of the club.  The next place she did remember was the bed and the scent of her girlfriend next to her.  Mariko smiled as she looked at her clock and rolled out of bed to rush to work.

That first thought was actually interesting in a way with influence going into this chapter so it might be an extension of this chapter hopefully...

The MariHaru was kinda a mixture of sugary cheesy goodness

Chapter 13

Yuu returned to the meeting of the twin towers and their plans seemed to be simple leaving the company with just sponsoring the contest as the twin towers controlled the talent portion with hiring the judges.  As he heard it, he felt comfortable with the setup looking at Shinoda.

The three entered the office as usual with the silence more powerful than ever before taking their seats at the meeting.  Rin set his chair away from Yuito observing the relationship in front of him.  There was little to say but he knew that no display was going to get him jealous.  The two women opened up the presentation file and explained the savings of using an outside source to get the job done.

“How do we know we are actually saving?”  Yuu asked.

“It saves you guys from a lawsuit for any fault.”  Akimoto answered.

“Sure it does but that would mean more money up front.”

“Well… that maybe an issue but we are not aiming for top talents.  Our aim is talent scouts.

Yuu looked around the room seeking for a reply from the other members before looking back up for a common agreement.  Shinoda raised her hand catching the two before getting to the next slide.

“What will be the price range?”

The two glanced at each other before handing out a folder to Yuu and Shinoda of the possible selections.  Many were quite famous by themselves as they have found acts in the past.  They had gems in the pool of scouts which made them excited.

“Two hundred fifty to three hundred thousand for a day.”

The two agreed that would be perfect for them and let the meeting go one without any interference leading to the signed contracts of the two on board.  When it was over, they left the room returning back to their desks without communication.

“Rin-kun!  Where are you going for lunch?”

“Ahh I have a coupon for the cafeteria.  Want to go?”  He replied seeing her smile.

“Sure… However we might need another place for dessert…”  Yuko pondered before leaving the area.

Rin smiled back at Yuko as she left and continued on with his work.  Yuito firmly stared at his screen looking through the data as he felt a touch on his foot.  He shot up to the smile of his girlfriend when he shook off the gesture and ran off to the printer.

“Yuko is having a liking towards you.”  Yuito commented wiping his lips with his fingers.

“We are together.”

“I see.  That must be fun just to be in lust.”  He spoke under his breath.

“I don’t look at it that way.”  He responded.  “I just satisfy her needs.”

Yuito shook his head before straining back at his computer when Rie returned with her documents.  She knew the atmosphere was heavy between the two and just watched it grow every day before works finishes.  She sat there sharing her attention between the two before opening up another file to research.
-----
Yuu returned to his desk when Akimoto walked in with a gift basket.  She took a seat at the desk looking across of the table and slid a portfolio towards him.  He wasn’t sure the reason but she opened it up to his wife’s picture.  Yuu noticed the time table and the benefits would be retroactive from the period that was given to her at the time she gave birth.  He lowered the folder onto the table and showed a half smile.

“Have you contacted her?” He asked.

“Yes.  She had agreed to it and when she becomes available she will be part of my company.”  Akimoto explained with an awkward grin.

“Can I ask about the pay?”

“Unfortunately, that will be between us and her.”

Yuu locked his hand together as the thoughts of her work life came to his mind.  She was diligent in her jobs and a gain for her company would be leverage against his.  However, he couldn’t let her miss out on this chance and Akimoto seemed honorable to ask.  Yuu stood up and handed over the portfolio over to Akimoto with her smile slowly growing.

“I want her to be paid well.  That’s all I ask.”

“Thank you.”

Yuu sat down and could only imagine his wife’s face about the offer that they were giving her.  He had the concert and the wife on good terms.  He looked onto his screen and a mail had popped up giving him a notice of audit personnel visiting in about a week.  Yuu typed out the response that his area was preparing for the visit and sent it right away.  Immediately, a response came back to curse him for such a quick answer.  Yuu had confidence in his area and ignored the mail and sent out an email that there were auditors coming in about a week and a message to tidy it up.

Yuu sent out the email and heard his phone rang to be summoned to the office of the president.  He jogged over to the office to see a man with a grim expression on his face.  There were few things he didn’t want to see and the man with a stern expression was one and he closed the door behind him.

“Masuda, I know your area is set but the others are in a bind at the moment.  We cannot have different days to have the others catch up.”

“If they weren’t ready, it is their faults not mine.”  He responded.

“True… but are you willing to help them get ready?”

“I will do what is needed if they need me other than that they are screwed.”

“Okay, Hashimoto has requested help.”

Masuda knew that was the financials area and ran over to find an extra computer open to access the files for the year.  The files were in a mess as he smashed them together and found a flaw in the numbers.  He messaged the leader and saw him walk over to a missing transaction that was recently covered.  Hashimoto was a slender man with thinning black hair and a shaded moustache.  Masuda saw the man turned white when the amount had been revealed to him.

Masuda had seen everything but the missing amount had shocked him and he had brought up the transactions and one by one scan it through for matching documents.  Hashimoto only could watch and wait for the items to be shown.  Yuu swore that the item had to been a miscommunication among the clients and peeled his eyes on it when he looked up to the clock just passing 1 P.M.

“Masuda, you can go to lunch…”

“I’ll stay a little longer.”  He replied.

Hashimoto bowed and walked away from the computer.  Every transaction was covered until there was a notable exchange and his heart had dropped.  There was the problem and he couldn’t believe it when he was ready to report it.  He stood up from the chair when a crowd had appeared hearing about the news that had just been released.  Yuu saw his boss and tapped him on the shoulder giving him the news.  He saw a hand swung at him and he feel to the ground.

“Hashimoto is dead!”

“What!?!?  He was the one to embezzle…”  He stopped when the items connected them together.

There was a purpose to the problem and ran back to find Hashimoto had withdrew the money to pay a debt and suffered through the late payments when it was finally done when the shark had come and finished him soon after.  Yuu shook his head as he saved the ledger and walked back to his office.

Rie excused herself to go home after the events that had happened and saw a note on her door with “UNAGI” written on top.  She entered into the apartment with her key and opened it to find a letter indicating a meeting of the writers in secret.  She knew it was an opportunity to seek the other writers with their stories entertaining the audience.  She changed into t-shirt and jeans before throwing over a hoodie to hide her identity.

The breeze caught her by surprise a she walked toward the area where she dropped off her stories and went down the stairs with the invitation in hand.  She knocked twice and handed the invitation over to the person and was led into a hallway with an open cell in front of her.  Rie stepped inside and it slowly went down to the floor below where there was chatter and the cell connected to another set of hallways below.

“Welcome Unagi!  We have been waiting for you.”  The raspy voice greeted her.

“Welcome everyone.  May I know you names?”  She asked as one by one they said their pseudonyms as she was offered a plate of cookies and a cup of tea.

Many were envious of Unagi and her work with the voices seemingly hissing like snakes in a pit but no one knew the identity of the others.  Rie had grown curious but it was short lived with the booming voice of the host.  The sound silences the crowd as it directed towards her.

“Unagi, you have the highest grossing amount of readers and subscribers among the group.  I want to thank you for your hard work.”

“Thanks to the people.”  She responded before biting into the brittle cookie.

“I have a request.”  One person had shouted with a shriek in its voice.  “Unagi, I challenge you to make an intimate story.”

“Do you mean sex?”

“I issue a challenge to Unagi and if she achieves this, it will make the sales skyrocket.”  The voice proclaimed.

Rie swallowed the piece whole feeling her throat ripping as she swallowed it and downing the hot tea to break it down.  There were few things she had to consider that to write such things out needed practice and next was considering Yuito as a prime target to explain the interaction.  She was doomed to try it but there was a chance and she looked through the hole.

“I’ll take the challenge.  One week.”

“It has been confirmed that she has a week to finish it.”

Her cage was brought up and she had left quickly in the darkness into the lights of the outside world.  Rie had dialed the number and held the phone up to her ear.

“Hello.”

“Rie-chan, how are you doing?”  He replied.

“I need some help…”

“What is it?”

“Would you mind an idea?”  She asked.

“Sure.”

“Explain to me a deep dark secret.”

“I always wanted to try a threesome…”  He responded.

“With who?”

“A former girlfriend.  She’s here right now crying her eyes out.  I told her that I have a new girlfriend but she won’t go away.”

“I see.  I think she needs a little wakeup call about the relationship.  I don’t feel angry about it since she wants you but can I come over?”  Rie smiled as she asked the question.

“You sure it wouldn’t be awkward?”

“I don’t think so because she would do anything right?”

She heard a pause with murmuring in the back before Yuito went back onto the phone.  “That’s mean of you because she is trying to reach into my pants at the moment.”

“I’ll be there with some protection.  Hold her back until then.”

Rie ran into the convenience store to grab a pack of rubbers and alcohol before rushing over to the apartment with the rosy cheek girl all over his leg.  She saw her boyfriend in shock as the woman ran over with her head bowed toward the floor.  Rie walked over to fill up three glasses with ice and opened a can for each of them.  The three each consumed their share when the woman glared at Rie.

“Yuito was all for the first time.”

“Paru… don’t make it that I broke up with you because of sex.”  He replied.

“You had her in mind all along.  I knew when you started to become disinterested in me.”  She spoke as she lay on the bed.

“Rie, are you sure this is okay?”  He glanced at her seeing the hands approaching the other woman.

“Let’s get this experiment started.”  She smiled approaching her lips .
