)! It's Reina's POV

I hope you will enjoy it and forgive me any spelling mistakes as I still have a fever

Voracious moths come out of the closet
Gah! I hate walking through corridors in this wierd outfit. When I joined the band I didn’t think that I would end up in a flashy costume with ears and tail. What’s more it’s extremely uncomfortable. I’ll never get use to it.
“Ohayo Reina-san.”
“Oh Miya-chan. Ohayo.” I replie as she passes next to me.
Though we’ve recorded only one single together, and never really talked much she always tells me hello in such a cute manner. It’s not like I have something against it but I feel a little bit awkward everytime she does this. Especially when I’m dressed like this...
She is now in a new unit with Airi-chan and Momo-chan. What was the name of it Bu..Bu..Buono? Right it was Buono. I saw their clip they wear quite cool clothes in it. Surely cooler than this stupid costume...
I reach the end of the corridor and buy a can of soda.
Yep, the thirst is stronger than the embarassment caused by my uniform.
I get back to the studio and take position... The table in the corner is a perfect spot for admiring my Ai-chan who is talking with the director now. Even though our costumes are so strange she looks darn cute with those ears and the tail. Oh she’s heading to the entrance...
“Here kitty, kitty.” I call her teasingly.
“Reina how many times I have to tell you I’m not the cat.”
“Yeah, yeah whatever.” I reach out for her cute, short tail and draw her closer to me.
“Reina would like to see you only with those cute, fluffy ears on you.”
“Reina!” She twitches and pushes me away, blushing. “Someone may see us.” I move aside, leaning my hands against the table.
“Mou~ But Reina wants you and not only for an hour or a half.” I puff my cheeks, showing her my disappointment and dissatisfaction.
I don’t remember when was the last time we spent more than two hours alone. We are extremely busy because of that 10th anniversary thing. We perform in TV, give concerts, have all those press conferences, photoshoots and stuff like that. And since Ai is the leader she is twice as busy. What’s more she will go to Korea with Gaki and Koharu next week...So, I have full right to be dissatisfied...
“I know what you mean. I’m also frustrated cause we can’t spend much time together. But after Korea we’ll go to Taiwan and I’m sure we’ll be able to spend sometime alone...” She strokes my cheek.
Taiwan... -> hotel rooms...-> alone... -> I can’t wait!
“If you say so...” I sigh pretending that I’m not fully convinced.
Come on, encourage me a little bit more...
“Be patient and you won’t regret it.” She says in a sexy manner and grins seductively.
Yess! That’s what Reina was waiting for, her wicked side to be awaken.
Carried away by this atmosphere, I lean closer to kiss her...
“Ai-san the manager is looking for you.” We quickly move aside from each other.
Phew seconds later and we could have been caught by the staff guy...
“Hai.” She lets go of my hand and leaves.
I glare at the man making him uneasy. Probably not sure what I mean by this gaze, he quickly leaves the studio.
I continue sipping my soda.
“What’s up with that gloomy face Tanakacchin?” Gaki pokes my cheek.
“Don’t ask.” I mumble.
But it’s like leaving Sayu in one room with cookies and telling her not to eat them...
“Not enough love from Ai-chan makes you feel down, huh?” I roll my eyes at her. I hate when she asks those retorical questions.
“Well, I also know something about that...”
“You also feel down, cause Ai-chan doesn’t have time for you?”
Well, I know she is her friend but...
“Reina I’m not speaking about Ai-chan.” She frowns at me.
Right, it’s about her sweet Miracle-san... She is so busy with her school and seiyuu job that we hardly ever see her in the studio.
“So, are you together, I mean you and Koharu.” I try to sustain the conversation. However, she just shakes her head, looking into distance.
“Everytime I try to bring up that topic she quickly changes it and flods me with stories about what will happen in the next episodes of Kirarin Revolution.” I cough trying not to laugh since she looks pretty serious and sad so I don’t want to hurt her feelings.
“I don’t get her. One time she is all over me and a while later she acts like...like...”
“Like a hyperactive brat?”
Crap Reina, you can’t just shut up and be quiet , can you?
She lightly pokes my rib with her elbow.
“Gomenasai.” I smile dumbly.
“Nah, you are right .”
Yeah I know I’m right...What?! Gaki is agreeing with me? Agreeing that Koharu is a hyperactive brat? Am I dreaming?
“She sometimes acts like a brat...But I love her and I can’t help it...” She looks down.
Great I’ve made her even more depressed...
“Don’t worry it will turn out well eventually.” I place my hand on her shoulder showing her my support.
Guess love really can be blind...
“Awww Tanakacchin you are so sweet...” She hugs me tightly.
“Well, well, look what we have here...” Ai-chan leans against the wall, crossing her arms at her chest.
“I went out for a few minutes and you already found a comforter, huh?” She rises her eyebrow indicating Gaki with her gaze.
Risa and I begin to giggle as the situation is completely opposite from what she suspects.
“It’s not funny. Come on I have to punish you...” She grins wickedly and takes me by the hand. I jump off the table but before we leave I wink at Gaki assuring her that I’ll keep my fingers crossed for her and Koharu.
* * *
I’m following Ai-chan, feeling how excitement rises with every step...I can’t wait for my punishment...
Unfortunately before we reach our goal, in other words some empty room, we bump into Hitomi...
“Wow, wow hold on you two. Why in such a hurry?” She blocks the path stopping the both of us.
“Eto...” We both mutter.
But any kind of logical explanation comes up to our heads.
“You know what? I’ve been watching the two of you very closely lately. And you won’t tell me that I see you always together by a mere accident.” She wags her finger at us like we would be mischevious brats.
I and Ai look at each other realizing that we won’t get away with this.
“Come on, I’ll treat you with some cake and you’ll tell your ex-leader the whole story.” She takes us by the arms and leads to the cafeteria.
* * *
Yossy idylly stirs her coffee with devilish grin sticked to her face. We sit in front of her like pupils in principal’s office.
We don’t have a choice but to tell her the truth. She would eventually realize it by herself...if she hadn’t already realized it and now she is only teasing us...
“So I’ll get straight to the point.” She leans across the table towards us. “Are you together?”
I knew it...She is teasing us...
We nod and flush simultaneously like we would practice this reply before...
“I knew it...” She states victorously leaning against the chair. “Since when?”
And what is this?Some kind of interview or she is writing a biography book about us?
“Remember our first concert on september?” Ai asks, meanwhile I begin to eat my cake.
Since everything is clear I don’t have to explain myself. Besides, I’m pissed off at Hitomi for putting off my long awaited punishment...That’s why I ordered the most expensive cake they have here...
“Oh so that’s why you reacted with “
Reina!” “ Yossy imitates Ai-chan’s scolding tone which brings back my attention at her.
“When I’ve groped you.”
“You did what?!” I almost choked up at the sound of the word grope.
“Calm down Reina I didn’t have any idea about you being together. Honestly, if I had known I would have never groped Ai-chan. Besides, it wasn't like I did it in Miki's manner I just...” I don’t listen to her explanation.
“Reina?” Ai-chan waves her hand in front of me, but I just pierce the blond girl with my cold gaze.
I’m glad that they give forks to those cakes...
“How could you grope my Ai-chan?” I bare my teeth.
“Yossy! Come on we have to go!” Rika’s voice comes as a saviour for her.
“Excuse me.” She stands up and my fork violently pierces the cake.
“Hey!” I shout after her. “ Don’t you ever try to do that again! Get it!”
Or even Rika won’t save you...
“Sure don’t worry.” She replies giggling and leaves with Rika.
Mr.Moonlight will never change, huh? But she better stay away from my girl or there will be an unexpected eclipse of that moon...
I get back to eat my cake. Ai-chan is looking at me with serious face.
“Wha...?” I ask with my mouth filled with cake. “Want some?”
“No...We still haven’t told others...”
Great...First my punishment is postponed and now I can’t even drown my sorrows in the dessert...
“Ok we’ll tell them as soon as I finish.” She rolls her eyes at me.
Responsible leader mode activated...
“No. We will tell them now.” She takes the plate away from me and again we are dashing through studio corridors...
We gather all uninformed members in one of the rooms and stand in front of them like we would like to announce our engagement or something. It feels awkward...
“So, what is that important matter?” Mitsui asks.
Ai-chan looks upon me nervously, expecting me to say something.
I should have predicted that. She drags me all the way here, previously depriving me of my pricy cake and now she doesn’t know how to tell them.
I shrug crossing my arms and avoiding her gaze.
Do your best Leader...Do your best...
“Ano...I...I mean we...I mean I and Reina...We are together.”
Everyone stare at us. JunJun whispers something to LinLin in chinese which I find stupid after all we can’t undersatnd them so why is she whispering? Koharu who just came back from her job still seems to be in her Kirarin world, spacing out, not paying attention to us.
Well, if you ask me they don’t look very shocked...It’s like we would say “Tomorrow we have an apperance in tv.”. Simple, obvious information.
“Yeah we know that...”Aika declares, breaking the silence.
“But how?!”Ai-chan shouts in terror.
I’m also slighlty surprised by her statement...Have they seen us? We would know about that....
“Eri and Sayu told us.” LinLin explains to us.
“Ee?!”
Wait, those two...But...They are dead...Theay are sooo dead...
“Excuse us.” I pull shocked and speechless Ai-chan out of the room.
“Where those two could hide?” I say to myself as Ai-chan isn’t able to answer me in this state.
Fortunately someone conscious heads our way.
“Have you seen Ms.Turtle and her mad bunny?” Gaki-san steps back, probably scared that she will become an innocent victim of my fury.
“Yeah...they went to the dressing room over there...”
“Great thanks for the info.”
I continue my purchase dragging my girl behind my back.
I can’t belive that they’ve said them. What the hell were they thinking? It’s none of their damn buissnes.
“Reina...”
What next? They will announce that to the whole Hello Project?
“Reina...”
I don’t remember to give them permission for “coming out” on behalf of us...We don’t need representatives, we can take care of ourselves…
Room 200 ...It’s here...
I forcefully open the door,enter the room and...freeze...
Oh shit…What...How...Is she?... But...Gah!!!
They are so into it that they didn’t even realize someone entered the room...
“Come on we shouldn’t be here now...” Ai-chan takes me out of the room.
Shaking me by the shoulders, she desperately tries to bring me back from the shock.
“Reina!Wake up!”
“Did they...?
“I’ve been trying to tell you all the way here but you were so lost in your rage that you weren’t paying attention to my words...”
This is a nightmare...
I shake my head in disbelief. Ai-chan helps me to close my mouth and laughs.
“Gosh Reina, you haven’t even thought about what they were actually doing in that room.”
“Hey don’t laugh! After what I saw I’ll have to have a brainwash in order to erase this image from my mind.”
Gosh, I’ll never again sit peacfully beside a table...
“Yeah they were pretty into it. We should stay here and check if any unexpected guests will visit them.” She points out.
“What? They almost sold us out and we are going to cover for them? Cause they’re so stupid that they even don’t bother to close the door properly before they begin to make out?Forget it! I’m going.”At least I was intending to do so but Ai-chan ruined my plan by grabbing my tail...
“Not so fast my dear.”
Damn tail! Damn outfit! Damn Eri and Sayu!
“You’ll stay here with me. Besides, didn’t you come here to get them?” I nod with offended expression.
“So, we’ll wait for them here.” I sit reluctantly down next to the door. Ai-chan joins me on the floor and leans her head on my shoulder...
“Nee, Reina...”She lifts her gaze.“ We should also try that...” An uncontrollable smirk spreads across my face.
Replace an unpleasant image with a pleasant one...You are a genius Ai-chan...
“Excuse me.” We both stand up immediately.
“I would like to enter the room...” Miya-chan points the door behind us. I and Ai look at each other terrified. This time I really don’t know what to say...
“You can’t!”
Yeah indeed very creative Reina...
“But I have my uniform there…” Miya says sheepishly not discouraged by my firm prohibition.
“But…The room is being disinfected right now.”
Ok Ai-chan’s explanation is a bit too creative...
“Disinfected?...”
Poor Miya-chan must think her senpais have gone mad...
“Yeah... they’ve found moths in there....And you know, this is a dressing room...We can’t let moths devour our precious costumes ... Come back in an hour...”
Well, I wouldn’t have anything against if my flashy uniform was eaten by moths along with its tail...Ears can stay…After all, Ai-chan may also want some fanservice…
“Hai...” Miya mumbles in confusion and leaves.
Phew....She bought that nonsense...Well, she probably thought that the leader of Morning Musume wouldn’t have a reason to lie to her...
“Disinfected?” I look amused at Ai-chan.
“And what I supposed to tell her?Don’t go in there casue Morning Musume members are having their love session now?Besides, it’s still better than scarying her with Yankee attitude and shouting
“You can’t!” ”
I wasn’t so Yankee to scare her...
“Anyway did you see?”
“See what?”
I’ve seen enough today...
“In her bag.”
Huh?What she is talking about? Gah, can’t they just go out from there?
“I think I saw Risa’s photobook sticking out from her bag...”
“Risa’s photobook?In Miya’s bag?” I ask doubtfully.
“Yeah... At least I think it was Risa’s...”
“Why on earth Miya would have Risa’s photobook with her?”
It would be more likely if it was mine...Well, of course I’m not suggesting anything but come on, Gaki?
“I don’t know...”
“Gosh those moths must have eaten your brain.” I poke her forhead.
“Yeah you are right I must have seen wrong.”
“Reina, Ai what are you doing here?”
Look who has finished disinfecting the room...
“Eri,Sayu.” I greet them with fake bright smile.“We’ve been looking for you.”
“Really?” They ask in confusion.
“Yeah we would like to ask you about something.”
“About what?”
“Why the hell have you told others about me and Ai, huh?!”
“Oh so that’s what you mean.” They are starting to slowly step aside but Ai-chan cuts off their escape route.
“Well we thought...”Eri begins.
“That since you were so busy...” Sayu trails off. “We could do the whole “coming out” thing for you..”
“And save you the problem.” Eri adds.
“It’s not like they weren’t suspecting you.”
“Yeah, and since we’ve told them about us we thought we could tell them about you as well...” They both end with dumb grins.
“Gosh girls we can handle ourselves you really don’t have to worry about us...”
“Yeah besides I already told you Sayu it’s none of your buissnes. Got it!” I hiss. Ai-chan was too leniant for them...
“And one more thing next time when you make out in the room be sure to lock the door.”
“Ee?!You haven’t locked the door Sayu?”
“Me? Lock the door? You were the one who entered last.”
“Enter?I was dragged by you. I barely managed to shut it cause you were tugging my pants dragging me deeper into the room...”
“Yeah but then you...”I cover Sayu’s mouth while Ai takes care of Eri’s.
A slightly terrified Hello Project kid passes us by.
“Geez girls be more careful or I will have to rise a ban on dating members.” I suggestively look at Ai-chan.
“Well with one exception...”
That’s better.
“Ok we understand.We promise to be more careful..”
“Yeah and sorry for saying others...We shouldn’t do that after all...” They look at us with pleading eyes...Well, this doesn’t really work at me but Ai seems to fall for this...
“Ok we aren’t mad anymore, right Reina?”
Huh?Speak for yourself I know that those two won’t ever change…
Seeing my disagreement with her actions, she lightly pokes my rib.
“Yeah we aren’t...” I reluctantly agree only because she insists.
“Have you cleaned the table?” Ai-chan leans conspiratorially towards Eri.
She flushes and looks upon Sayu.
“What?With what I suppose to clean it?!”
“You can always lick it up.” I smirk devilishly.
They both turn red.
Sweet revange...
“Oh and you owe Reina a cake.” Ai-chan adds.
How cute of her to mention that...
Moved by Ai concern about my dessert I go back with her to the studio.
As we walk in, terrified Gaki-san encouters us.
“Have you heard? Voracious moths overcame every dressing room in the building.”
I and Ai-chan look at each other and burst into laughter.
It’s amazing how quickly informations spread across Hello Project....
