"So today will we be shooting any scenes?" a man with messy black hair questioned.
Lila shook her head, "No today will be practice for the sword and fight scenes and clothing sizes. That's what it said on the schedule we got."
"By sword fighting skills. Is that making the best of the skills we have already?" Tsubasa asked.
Come to think of it; it's the first time for Tsubasa to appear in this kind of movie, huh? After all, these two are known as the comedy duo for a reason. Lila quickly explained things, and she watched the two intently write things down. She chuckled, 'this is refreshing.' she thought. At first, Lila didn't know whether she could do an excellent job at it.
"Yes, but a bit more different than that," Lila said.
Still, her gaze fell on the eldest of the trio. The one called Ranmaru. He's that person's son, and older than her by two years. He's Haruka's age. Ranmaru turned to her, "Is there something on my face?"
"No," Lila shook her head. "You're strangely calm."
"Unlike them, I don't see the need to get excited over everything. But, I'll admit this is all overwhelming."
Lila's gaze softened, "You'll be fine. The company hasn't picked any trainees in a long time." Rather with the current state in Star company, there are so many talented groups already. Not enough managers or resources to go around these groups.
Let's see; the location is — Lila paused when she spotted two people leaving one of the rooms. It was her husband, and the woman named Rikka. Haruka had some files in his hands, and Rikka was explaining something to him.
"If it's about that..."
"Huh, I see. Got it; they've changed it, huh?"
"You'll get used to it, you learn quickly."
"Thanks, but I'll have to ask you some questions. I don't want to make a fool out of myself."
They seem chummy. Her thoughts broke of when Rikka leaned forward. She frowned, she's doing that deliberately. "Over here, you've made a mistake."
"Huh, hmm? Here?" Haruka pointed.
"Yes, give me your pen. I'll change it for you."
Haruka passed it over to her, and Lila carefully watched their hands. It felt like Rikka purposely brushed their hands together. 'This feels stalker ish,' Lila shook her head.
After watching them for a few minutes. Lila decided they had to walk over to get past, so she bravely made her way over with the three guys.
Coming face to face with each other. Lila knew that remaining silent would be for the best, let's see how the verdict is here. The two appeared to have equally surprised expressions. She broke the silence by speaking up.
"Good morning. It has been deciding that you will be co-acting with our people for this movie. These three are members of our new group. I'm sure your already familiar with one."
The others seemed surprised at how calm she was, "Lila," Souta said in complete disbelief.
"Looking forward to working with you," Lila bowed.
She really is remaining calm. However, Lila was fuming inside. How dare this Rikka woman get so clingy with her husband.
"Ah...yes...me too."
At that sentence, her gaze meets his.
"Come on, you three. Greet him also. He's still your senior in the entertainment world."
The three of them did so and said simultaneously, "Please take care of us."
After an awkward silence, Haruka broke it by taking a few steps forward. He pulled her into his arms, "Morning, wife."
Ah, it's Haruka's warmth. That's right; nothing is wrong. Lila hugged him back tightly. "I missed you, hubby."
"Sorry I had to leave early. Did you eat breakfast? Your medicine?"
"I took it..."
Haruka seems a bit different...
He isn't kissing her or acting like an idiot... Lila wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face there. "Wife?"
"I want to be alone.."
"Rikka," Haruka called out. "Do we have time?"
"30 minutes."
"That's plenty," he picked her up. Lila felt Rikka watching her but quickly walked down the hallway.
Lila turned to the other three, "Kiryu should be waiting in the location. You three know where to go, right? Just down this hall and turn right."
"Alright."
Ranmaru looked over at her and grabbed her wrist. "Kiryu-san gave me instructions. Will you be fine?"
Ah, Lila nodded. "It's fine; this is my husband."
He seemed doubtful, and Lila understood why. He must have seen that scene from earlier. Lila somehow managed to convince him and turned to her husband.
She was pressed against the wall and was being kissed feverishly in seconds. Haruka, his warmth and his touch. Lila shook her head. No, no, she can't get lost in this. "Your eyes are sexy, Lila."
If this were before, she would have easily got caught up in lust and passion. But things are different now; she will not get caught up in deep love.
"Idiot! Why is that the first thing you say to me after awhile?" Lila wasn't pleased. For the past few days, she has not seen him a lot.
"Sorry, I can't help it. . . Lila, I want to hold you. .."
What sad-looking eyes, it's the first time she's seen such an expression on his face. Perhaps it's alright for just a little bit; nobody's around anyway. She relaxed in his hold and allowed him to touch her all over. However, when Haruka placed kisses on her neck, his fingers darted towards the necklace to remove it.
"Is this new? I've never seen it before."
It was just a simple question, and he meant nothing by it. Yet Lila doesn't know why, but she felt her heart speed up. Is it guilt? Or is it a reminder? Whichever one it is, he already spoilt the mood.
Lila drew back, "I want to focus on other things for a while."
However, as she pulled away, Lila's gaze met his, and she clenches her fist. "Please. .Haruka, understand it."
"Alright. But I will kiss you once more."
It's so painful. It really hurts, as soft and tender as his kiss is. It's too painful for her; she will suffocate if she remains with him. Yet if he will make such an expression, then she can bear with that pain for a little bit. After a few minutes, Lila was the one who couldn't pull away from him. For some reason, she couldn't do it.
"Hey, wife, I need to leave..."
"No," she mumbled and kissed him again.
"I can get used to you seducing me," Haruka said against her lips. "Mmmmm, minx."
Their moment, however, is interrupted by the sound of his phone. To her surprise, Haruka stopped kissing her back, "Hey? Hmmm, yeah, I'll be there."
Lila frowned and brought her lips to his neck.
"How long? I guess in a few hours. Sorry, I'll be late, Rikka."
Her eyes brightened at his words. A few hours? That means he will spend time with her, right? Eventually, Haruka got off the phone, he turned to her and smiled brightly. "Do you have time? Let's go on a walk."
"O—okay!!!"
Haruka nodded and kissed her lips before squeezing her hands. "Alright, let's go out for a bit."
Lila nodded and followed Haruka down the halls. Something seems a bit different about him. It's Christmas eve today, and Christmas is tomorrow. She wonders if they have any plans. He mentioned nothing to her.
"So, about tomorrow. When are you available?" Haruka suddenly asked.
"Ah, I have a lot of work," Lila sighed at the thought. It was the same last Christmas too. But now, as a number one idol, she has even more work than before.
"So, you'll get out late?"
"There's a Christmas live; I'm still thinking who I should perform with."
"I see," Haruka seemed disappointed.
"Um, what about you?"
"I'm free from this afternoon onwards till the new year."
Ehhh? Wait, he has time off?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
