@ rndmnwierd: I will keep it in mind however, my memory is not the greatest in the world so I say this now, I will not be surprised if I did add more pairings and create brain damage to myself
@ lil_hamz : *WHACK*
You should root for.........JunLin
I'm sure regardless if she was taking charge or whatever you'd still grab her and..... yeah you get the idea
Sayu is determined, she will get over Eri and will move on with life!!!! Go Sayu, do what most people can't do in life
@ kRisZ : I don't know, living to tell the tale is very hard and probably if it was to happen would be exaggerated like it really was scary but in fact in real life it was like this:
Random: So Fujimoto-san, I heard you were dating that guy, is it true?
Mikitty: What's it to you?
Random: Just wondering, we are concerned
Mikitty: Yes I am
Random: Are you happy with it?
Mikitty: Yes I am
which turns out to be like:
Random: So Fujimoto-san flared up and then fangs started growing out from her mouth and her eyes went red, you could practically see smoke coming out from her. She nearly ate me alive but I got the truth, I finally got the truth before she could. Then I ran and ran as fast as my legs could carry me and it was hard to shake her off. I was wounded from her fingernails, she slashed me and.....
@ pretend_2besome1: Eri is determined that it was an easy solution to a problem however, is it as easy??? I mean going out with a guy was bad enough with the media. How will things turn out if it was the same-sex?
Chapter 29“YOU’LL WHAT???” Everyone turned their attention to the flaring Reina, who had gotten up from her seat. She looked around “What are you guys all staring at?”
Sayumi pulled Reina back down “Hush! Reina! We don’t want to attract any attention”
“What’s with the outburst? Don’t worry about it”
‘I can’t believe she said that! Does Morning Musume mean nothing to her? Doesn’t she realize the risk she is taking and the risk she is putting Gaki-san through if they do go out? Doesn’t she know how much Morning Musume means to Gaki-san and she’ll throw out what means a lot to Gaki-san out the window? Is she insane?’“I hope you know what you’re doing Eri. So when are you going to confess?” asked Sayumi which earned her a death glare from Reina
“Not now, I think she’ll be busy getting use to the responsibilities and duties as sub-leader. But maybe as soon as everything gets back into order”
Thinking that it would be a bad idea to continue lingering on the topic, Sayumi dropped it and randomly started a new topic. When they finished their meal, they walked back to the hotel with mostly Sayumi and Eri talking, whereas Reina was more or less still peeved at Eri.
“Sayu, what are you guys going to do later?”
“I am tired, so I am hitting the sack”
“Er…Eri I have to clean up my things for tomorrow, I kinda started throwing my things around and Reina was lecturing me about this morning”
“Awwww!!! Do you have to?? Gaki-san is probably having meetings with manager-san and Ai-chan so I don’t think she will be back anytime soon. What am I going to do? It’s so boring staying in the room by myself”
“Well I could come by after I am done okay?”
Eri’s face lightened up “For sure? You promise?”
Sayumi giggled, “yes” as she and Reina walked into their room.
As soon as the room door was closed, Sayumi’s smile disappeared as she faced Reina “What was that all about?” as she placed her hands on her hips staring at Reina
“What was what all about?”
“Don’t act dumb with me Tanaka Reina! What was your outburst at Eri about?”
“She is being selfish that’s why!”
“How so?”
“She is putting Gaki-san and her career on the line by being so uncaring whether they get caught or not. What does she think Morning Musume is??? I don’t know about her but I do recall that to Gaki-san it is important. She loves being a Musume so I don’t know how Eri can say the things she did as if it was nothing”
“Well what would you do? You have feelings for Gaki-san, you are more of a coward but you may as well love Gaki-san as much as Eri”
“I wouldn’t confess to her even more now!”
“Why is that? What if Gaki-san loves you? What if Gaki-san was willing to take that chance?”
“I won’t! First of all, I don’t think she does, secondly, we both love Morning Musume just as much. I wouldn’t want to get into a relationship that puts something that we both love at risk. I don’t want to be the cause of Gaki-san’s unhappiness and regret. I don’t want to chance something if it will harm Gaki-san in the end and make her regret for the rest of her life. I want to be brave and say that I will risk everything for Gaki-san but I am being realistic here, I can’t. At least not when it comes to both of our careers, she loves being a Musume and so do I. Thirdly is because of Eri. Yes I may be upset at the fact she is being reckless about this situation, but she is also one of my best friends and she has been close to Gaki-san. That is another thing that I can’t risk, losing a best friend and if losing Eri will upset Gaki-san then I don’t want to be the one who is the cause of it. It may sound like happiness that want to chance it now, but who can guarantee that in the future we don’t think along the lines of “what would I have become if I didn’t choose this relationship?”. I think that would be more painful to hear, don’t you think?”
Sayumi thought about Reina’s reasoning and slowly her hands fell from her hips “I guess you make a good point, but even if the other party is willing to take that plunge with you? Doesn’t that mean that you are worth it and the relationship is worth it?”
“I don’t know Sayu but I just can’t be as positive as you say. Can we drop this? I don’t want to think about it anymore”
“But..”
“But nothing Sayu! There are too many factors that are on the line and none of us can guarantee that the things we love will forever be there if I take that risk” as Reina got into her bed and pulled the covers over her head.
“I hope you won’t regret and that you’re right that it is better for both of you”
~KNOCK KNOCK~ Sayumi went to fetch the door considering the fact that Reina did not want to surface from under the blankets anytime soon.
“You guys won’t believe it but apparently the 2 transfer students will be joining us for our next single”
“Already? No offense but will they be okay? Like will we be able to communicate?”
“I don’t know I just heard it from Gaki-san…Sayu! You haven’t even started cleaning up? What have you been doing all this time?” Eri looked over at what Sayumi was suppose to do untouched
“Er…I was about to”
“Tsk tsk…well anyways gotta go. Gaki-san got off her meetings so now Ai-chan, Gaki-san and I are gonna chill in our room. Later!” and Eri dashed back to her own room
Sayumi closed the door to see that Reina had not moved an inch from her position so she decided not to continue the topic as she walked into the bathroom. Unknowingly, Reina let a lone tear fall from her eyes onto her pillow.
‘If only we didn’t love being in Morning Musume, if only Eri doesn’t love you too, maybe I could be selfish, maybe we could be something more than friends or bandmates’ as Reina closed her eyes.
