Hey everyone! This is my first story on Fan Fiction! I hope everyone likes it! I tried really hard to come up with some good scenarios and am hoping this will turn out well. I'm writing this with a keyboard in my hands and just a click away! Wish me luck! By the way, I've revised this 5 million times, and I probably will be revising it again. So here it is folks! My Music! Please don't steal! I wrote it myself!

Chapter 1: A Meeting With Fate

Shuichi Shindou's voice flowed melodically through the room as his fingers lightly hit the right notes on the electric piano in front of him. Hiroshi Nakano, on an acoustic guitar strummed softly along while Suguru Fujisaki sat looking amazed for some reason unknown. K-san smiled wildly, and if you weren't paying attention to the music (which would be impossible by this point) you could hear him say to Sakano, "This is our next big hit!" Music filled the room.

Softly flew the sweet sounds on the tips of angels wings/Spreading the hope of a brand new forever when the snow falls/Do you remember the night when these words/Spoken softly by the wind were sent to you/This is my lasting hope for a brand new day/When the world falls lightly around us holding together our ties/ Bring me back eternal.

Shuichi finished softly. Fujisaki stood up clapping and Hiro jumped on Shuichi, sending both of them -along with Shuichi's keyboard- toppling to the floor. "Shuichi! I promise not to shoot you for the rest of today!" K-san said, who before the song started had pulled a few practice shots. Sakano bowed to Shuichi and turned into a his usual tornado. "What will Tohma say?" and then he fainted. "Was it really good?" Shuichi asked quietly with tears in his bright violet eyes. "Brilliant." replied Hiro and then he pronounced, "We should take a lunch break!" K-san approved it because they had been hard at work all morning, and Shuichi had held another all-nighter.

Shuichi climbed on Hiro's motorcycle, and they sped off toward Hiro's house. "It took me all night, so I'm glad that you guys liked it." stated Shuichi, and then yawned. "Would you rather go to bed or eat for lunch?" Hiro asked, and then quietly said, "'Cause I'm hungry for something sweet." and winked at Shuichi. "I don't know. I think I'm going to bed. You come with me Hiro." Shuichi said innocently enough, and they used their lunch up.

Walking back into the studio, they were met by Tohma, Sakano and K-san. "We were expecting you 45 minutes ago, but I guess this will have to do." K-san said, and smirked at them when Tohma and Sakano looked away. "K-san had me meet with him to discuss Bad Luck's upcoming single. He had me listen to "Surrender", and I believe that this would be perfect. It's less techno and softer. Although Suguru does not play in it, I would like some changes. I was thinking of some background synth to fix it up. It's still a little rough around the edges. But I think we can fix it up. Good job Sakano and K. Congratilations Bad Luck." Tohma Seguchi told them with a smile, and then walked off. This was the best compliment they had ever got from their producer.

Sakano was in tears. "He's proud of us! I think my heart's going to burst!" Hiro shook him slightly. He walked toward the studio and looked back at Sakano, "Follow me dog-boy, we still have lots of work to do if we plan to come up with anything that's worth money according to Seguchi." They all went back into the recording room and played the song until Shuichi's voice would sing it no more. Then he played the piano until his fingers felt like they were crushed. "That's a wrap." said K-san, and they all left quietly.

"Want me to drive you home?" Hiro asked Shuichi quietly, but Shuichi shook his head. "I think I'm going to walk." he told Hiro, and started walking towards the park. "Come by later. We never got to finish off." he said, giving Shuichi a peck on the cheek. Shuichi blushed and Hiro sped off. At the park, he miraculously spotted Tohma. "What are you doing here?" he asked as he ran up to him. Tohma bowed. "Good evening Mr. Shindou. I had no other bands from NG that needed help tonight. My step-brother just came to Tokyo from New York, and I was hoping to show him around." his arm swept to the right and there stood a tall American. Almost like K-san, except without the ponytail.

"Eiri, this is Shuichi Shindou. He's the lead singer of one of our top bands at NG." Tohma said, and pointed to Shuichi. "Mr. Shindou, this is Eiri Uesegi, my brother in law." Eiri grunted. "It's Yuki. Eiri Yuki." "There's nothing wrong with your last name. Why do you hate it so much?" "It's my father's name." The conversation went back and forth for a few minutes. Until Tohma noticed Shuichi was still standing there. "Eiri, this is the boy who wrote the song I had you listen to in my office earlier." Tohma put forth, in order for all three of them to be involved in the conversation. "Oh, that piece of shit. Tohma, I thought you knew good musicians. Why are you producing them?" Shuichi blushed and walked over to Yuki. "You think as soon as you meet me you can insult my music? It's not that bad!" he said, and tears spilled down his cheeks. Eiri "Yuki" smirked at him. "This is the lead singer of one of the best-selling bands in Japan? Tohma, that's an insult to NG." Tohma looked slightly torn. "I didn't want to produce them, but Sakano stepped in and took over after I fired him." Tohma explained hurridly. "Um... I have to go to Hiro's house. Bye Mr. Seguchi! My Mr. Yuki!" Shuichi said, before running off. No talent, but kind of cute. Cute! Where did that come from? Eiri thought to himself, but his thoughts were interrupted by Tohma saying happily, "You can meet the rest of the band at the studio tomorrow."

Eiri groaned. "Are they all as baby-ish and talentless as him?" "As you know, my cousin plays keyboards for Bad Luck. And Hiroshi Nakano plays guitar. I believe that they have become very good compared to what they used to be." Tohma told him with praise and a smile on his face. "You're smiling now. That's a bad sign." Eiri said and took out a cigarette. "Let's go see Mika." Eiri said, and they walked off, going to the cafe' where they would meet Tohma's wife.

Meanwhile, Shuichi raced to Hiro's place. He ran to the door, and knocked violently. The door opened a crack. "Oh, Shuichi! I didn't expect you to be here so early!" He opened the door all the way, and let Shuichi in. "What's the matter?" he asked as Shuichi slumped lifelessly on the bed. "I just met our boss's brother in law." he said, and sighed. "What is he hotter than me?" Hiro asked with a grin. Shuichi blushed. "Of course not!" he stated, even though earlier he had looked quite fondly at Yuki's gorgeous blonde locks and his beautiful face. "So what is it?" Hiro laid down next to Shuichi and put his hand in Shuichi's. "He dissed my lyrics, my singer, i our /i band!" Shuichi stood up now, furious. "What right does he have to say stuff like that? He's just a know-it-all. And guess what?" Hiro wasn't nearly as shocked or as angry as Shuichi, of course. He heard people diss his music and didn't care. He liked it and that was all that mattered. "What?" Hiro asked Shuichi playfully. "He's visiting the studio tomorrow to watch us play!" Shuichi said and jumped off the bed. "Sounds like we're going to have to go full-throttle then." Hiro said, and pushed Shuichi on the bed, smiling. "Hiro! I'm complaining." he stated. "But we didn't finish earlier." Hiro said with a puppy dog face. "Fine, but we have to get some sleep tonight, so we can show that guy who's boss!" he said laughing.

Hiro and Shuichi were talking well into the night about all kinds of stuff, but Eiri Yuki kept being brought up. "If you've fallen in love with another guy, why don't you just tell me?" Hiro asked quietly. "What do you mean?" Shuichi asked with tears in his eyes. "You can't stop talking about him, and you're horrible at hiding your feelings. I can tell that something's the deal with this Yuki guy." Shuichi frowned. "All I want is to show him that we are better than he thinks we really are." Shuichi responded and kissed Hiro's cheek. "How could I like that bastard more than you?" The question went unanswered.

They got up the next morning with more yawns. "We didn't get any sleep again. I'm so tired." Hiro said. "Well, that's your own fault." stated Shuichi, and they hopped in the shower to get ready for work.
