Updating~~
P.S.: I'm starting to think about a fanfic of Hetalia with a theme of male idol. :) For the pairing, I'm torn between CanadaXJapan, EnglandXJapan or AmericaXJapan
Btw, England is now leading with 6 points.
It has been two weeks since school started. Two weeks since the student council had started their own paperwork and planning of their events. Despite being busy, they still found time to hang out with their friends after school.
The students looked up on their council members, especially the freshmen trio. This was the first time in Hetalia High's history that a freshman was in the student council, and there were in fact three of them.
The student council is consisted of the top three rankers per batch. In the Junior year, it is Arthur who has the top rank, followed by Ivan and Francis. Ludwig, followed by Feliciano, are the ones who ranked highest in the sophomore year. Kiku, as we all know, holds the top rank in the freshman year, followed by Alfred and Matthew who both ranked second.
To say that their council meetings were peaceful...well... That's a lie. Every afternoon, everyone who passes by the student council room sweatdrops as they hear the chaos happening inside the said room. Even the teachers were wondering how in world can they come up with such brilliant events when they're trying to rip out each others' throats (well, Arthur and Francis mostly.) Some of them even wonder if their current student council members are indeed... Sane. Well... I think they are.
And the said meeting is right now, happening.
"Alfred, you're the webmaster. Make sure you update the school's website as well as our own website. That includes our Facebook page as well." Arthur said, looking at the document he was holding. "Francis and Feliciano, you're the historians. I'm sure you always have your cameras with you. Just keep on taking pictures during events so we can put it on our year-enders book."
"Ohonhonhonhon, don't fret, Arthur. I'll make sure I'll take enough pictures for everyone. Even stalking purposes." Francis said, smirking when he saw the annoyance flash on Arthur's face.
"Oi, Frog, you're here to set an example to the student body. Not to use this as an advantage for your perverted plans!" Arthur spat out.
"Hah?! Who said that me taking pictures of beautiful and charming women would be perverted?!" Francis countered.
Ivan sat on his chair with his ever present smile as he watched with full interest on how Arthur and Francis were having their heated argument.
"Vee~ hey Ludwig, I'll take a lot of pictures of the cute girls around the campus~ then we'll eat pasta~" Feliciano's voice was suddenly heard.
Matthew was watching the scene before him, hugging his bear plush that he named Kumajiro while Alfred was laughing at everything.
"I'm going to kill you, you bloody frog!" Arthur's voice rang out.
"Like I'll allow that to happen you former deliquent!" Francis countered loudly.
Ludwig, who was starting to lose his patience, was about to shout at everyone to shut up and do their own work when Kiku had beaten him at it. Kiku had taken out his wooden katana out of nowhere and apologized first before hitting Arthur, Francis and Alfred on their heads, shocking everyone in the room.
Kiku only blinked at them before saying "There's still work to do."
Alfred tackled Matthew on a hug, asking his twin with a low voice "what did I dooooo?"
"You were probably adding to the noise that Arthur and Francis were making," Matthew said, patting Alfred's head gently.
"Vee~ this is why you shouldn't slack off when working~ especially when Kiku's here~" Feliciano said.
It was an hour since the meeting had ended. Francis had promised treating Alfred and Matthew at the crepe store the twins saw the other day. Feliciano and Ludwig left after Feliciano remembered that he promised his brother that he'll make pasta for him. Ivan was hunting for Yao, and it seems like he did find him, since they heard a loud and piercing shout of "ARUUUUUU!" On the hallway a while ago.
Arthur watched as Kiku read some of the documents before signing those that the vice president was required to sign before putting it on his pile of finished work.
'He looks cute when he's concentrated.' Arthur thought before blushing at his own thoughts.
Trying to calm himself down, he stood up and went to the door. "Kiku, I'm going to buy something to drink, you want anything?"
Kiku onlu smiled before shaking his head. "No thanks, Arthur-san."
Arthur only nodded before leaving the student council room.
It has only been two weeks since he met Kiku and yet... He was very attracted to the quiet raven haired teen. His quiet and gentle aura was so pleasing to be with. His expressionless face and dull chocolate eyes were actually expressive after you get know how to know him. His slender and petite form was very graceful. All in all, everything about Kiku screamed beautiful.
Hitting his head on the vending machine, Arthur sighed. "I'm starting to fall for him, aren't I?"
"I hope you're not talking about kiku-nii," Kaoru's blank voice was suddenly heard, making Arthur jump in surprise.
Realizing what Kaoru said, Arthur blushed. "H-How did you-?!"
"Kiku-nii... Don't hurt Kiki-nii..." Kaoru's face was dark, and his eyes were full of intense anger and hatred. "...Just like him..."
The last part was a murmur, however, Arthur was able to hear it. "Him? Who's him? What do you mean?"
"Nothing." Kaoru said as he went back to his normal poker face expression. "I'm here to get Kiku-nii."
"He's still in the council room..." Arthur said, still confused with what Kaoru said. 'Did someone hurt Kiku back then?'
"I'll just wait outside the room then," Kaoru said.
Troubled with what Kaoru said moment ago, Arthur opened the council room before stopping. There was a low, singing voice. The lyrics was in English, but it was apparent that the song was only being translated.
'Someday, when your dreams become crushed
On a night when you look up at the starless sky
Just remember (Days like today)
When we ran recklessly (Together)
Those steps are miracles, ring out, Countdown!
From here take off for the future
You will start singing again
There are things you lack so reach out desperately to grab them
These hot, passionate feelings overflow, making the twinkling stars your ally
Even bluffing can become pride
You are free to fly however you want
After this, everything will begin!'
"Kiku-nii's singing voice is beautiful, isn't it?" Kaoru's voice brought Arthur out of his trance-like state.
Arthur only managed to nod as one question popped on his head:
Just how perfect will Kiku keep on getting?
The song used in this chapter is "Seishun COUNTDOWN" from the anime STARMYU/High School Star Musical. :3
