This is a story I've been working on a lot. It's a Sakano X OC story (not yaoi). Please take the time to read, I promise it'll get better later. I hope you'll read and review. Reviews appreciated, constructive criticism welcomed, and I won't react to flames.
Thank you.
"Fine then" said Seguchi Tohma after about 10 minutes of discussion "they may come in tomorrow. But" his piercing bluish-green eyes stared at his conversation partner "you gave me your word they won't disturb them too much, nor interfere with the recording. Now, don't be so afraid" he smiled in the end "I'm sure they'll be fine."
Mr. Grant, the responsible for Japanese bands' break in the USA and the introduction of American bands in Japan, sighed in relief. He'd never thought Mr. Seguchi would ever give in – but, in the end, it was his daughter's wish, and, since Tohma had already met her a couple of times when she came in to dine with his father, he must have drawn the conclusion that Amy Grant, 20, was a quiet, sweet young woman. Nothing to worry about. And her three friends… well, Amy will keep them quiet for sure.
"Thank you… thank you again…" Mr. Grant nodded happily.
"Not another word" Tohma raised a hand "just make them stay tight to your promise, and it'll be fine. I'll phone Sakano-san tomorrow morning, just before their arrival at 10 AM"
"Really?" Amy Grant yelled in excitement into the phone "OH DAD THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" she hung up "Girls!" she said to her three housemates in the end "We'll get to see them tomorrow at 10 AM!"
"Yeah!" the other three American girls jumped up. They've been living in Japan for more than 10 years now, and had their own home together for two months, being best friends since they met in elementary school, happy to find someone else from America.
"Fans?" asked Sakano incredulously "coming in – here?"
He didn't dare to ask the President if he was joking, partly because he knew too well he wasn't. But it was hard to believe that Seguchi Tohma would let 4 fans come in to the studio to get the Bad Luck members' autographs directly in the studio, while the time was tight, and they needed to finish the new album in three days. Little did it matter that there was only one song to record – for Sakano, everything that could go bad felt as if it already did go bad. He could already see the band ruined for the fans interrupted the work, and the new album couldn't be completed in time.
"Don't worry" said Tohma in a calming voice "I know they'll be quiet, and there'll be nothing to be afraid of."
And with this, he hung up, leaving it to Sakano to inform Shuichi, Suguru, Hiro and K.
The Bad Luck members seemed happy, and K just assured them that if anything got out of hand, his gun was ready…
The only thing Seguchi Tohma didn't know was that Amy Grant's three friends were not at all like angelic little Amy.
Walking towards NG, it could be already seen from their conversation.
"Maria" said short, curly blonde-haired, blue-eyed Amy blushing "these clothes..."
"They'll LOVE them" answered tall, raven-haired Maria Kelly "I'm sure this will be the next trend!"
As the four of them walked side by side, with one word on each shirt, the writing that could be read was WE LOVE BAD LUCK.
"Oh, no!" Lindsay Carter (shirt with BAD), who had her long brown hair tied in two ponytails yelled "I forgot one of my CDs!" she held up three singles, one album and a stack of folded Bad Luck posters.
"You've got enough for them to sign, don't worry… ah, Shindou Shuichi…" replied red-haired Sara Wyle, a huge Shuichi fangirl, while her green eyes shone behind her round glasses.
So, this was the terrible menace, oh, sorry, these were the 4 Bad Luck fans ready to enter NG.
10 AM. Sakano's nerves were about to collapse (not that it was a surprise). When will they arrive? Let this be over once and for all! he thought, and almost started spinning like a tornado as usual, when he heard footsteps. The fangirls had arrived.
"Hey, nice shirts!" Shuichi walked out from behind the glass barrier, greeting the girls cheerfully.
"I made them!" winked Maria.
"Congrats then!"
"OMG SHINDOU SHUICHI" in a second, Sara was already over him, hugging his neck so tightly that he felt like choking "you're my aaangel…!"
"Sara…" Amy warned her silently, while Suguru was signing her album cover "please, remember Dad's promise to Mr. Seguchi…"
Sara instantly let Shuichi go, and, as he gasped for air, she asked him to sign her albums.
Lindsay, after having everything signed (the band members's hands were nearly wilting off), jumped around happily, shouting why she loved the band so much. Briefly, these 4 fans, with the sole exception of Amy, who tried in vain to keep her friends down, could make up for 100. Not that Hiro or Suguru seemed to mind too much. Only Shuichi started to feel really awkward when Sara recitated him non-stop all her plans about their wedding and how much she loved him. Sure, Sara knew about Yuki from TV and magazines. But she was too loved up with her favourite pop star and eager to share her fantasies with him.
"Calm down, Sakano-san" K said firmly, seeing the producer's nerves were about to give up "they're almost done."
True, the albums and posters were all signed, and the Bad Luck members (for the sole exception of Shuichi, who couldn't get rid of a drooling Sara) accepted smiling all the compliments from their fans. After a minute, Amy, who'd never want her father to get into trouble with Mr. Seguchi, bowed and started to leave, urging the others to do so too
"Girls!" she whispered "if we behave well, maybe we could get in once again!"
In the end, the four girls stood in line once again, so the writing on their shirts could be read.
"WE LOVE BAD LUCK!"
"Marry me Shuichi…"
"SARA!" Amy pulled her sleeve "goodbye, thank you very much!"
"You're welcome" smiled Hiro.
So Amy pulled Sara, who continued to blow kisses towards an embarrassed Shuichi, along the corridor, as they left NG. But the other two weren't following them.
"Can we watch as you record a song? Eh? Canwecanwecanwe?" asked Lindsay, all excited.
"Pleeease!" added Maria.
"Well… okay" Shuichi was glad that Sara was no longer around.
When the two girls had been outside for like 15 minutes, drooling and staring so insistently that the band members simply couldn't concentrate, K decided it was time to take some serious action. He forced himself to tell it to the girls quite kindly, anyway.
"Listen" he walked outside and aimed his gun at them "we need to complete the new album."
"Ooo, is that real?" Maria stared at the weapon "sooo cool!"
"It is… I, as their manager, ask you to leave now"
"But pleee… aah!" Maria's eyes widened as a bullet hit the wall only a few inches beside her "oookay, I'm leaving!"
But Lindsay stayed.
"You won't dare!" she said, and she tood firmly as other 6 bullets were fired, all around her.
K's eyes narrowed, and he walked back inside to reload.
But Sakano couldn't take it anymore. He went in his full tornado-like spinning, and rushed out to Lindsay.
"That was fun! Do it again!" was all he got, along with a small giggle.
Sakano felt humiliated.
"I'll take care of her, K-san" he said to K, who was just exiting, gun reloaded.
The producer knew he couldn't hurt a fan, and was afriad K might – that's why he decided to take up the task of getting rid of Lindsay Carter. He simply grasped her shoulder and dragged her down the corridor, while she kept on protesting, but couldn't free herself, as the 29 year-old man was much stronger than the 20 year-old girl.
Once outside, Sakano let Lindsay go and stared directly into her deep brown eyes.
"I wanna go back!"
"You can't!"
"Who are you, anyway?" she lifted her chin in challenge.
"Bad Luck's producer… leave. Now."
Lindsay simply looked at him, from head to the feet, slowly and analyzing.
"Producer, eh?"
She knew she shouldn't. But that moment she was no longer Lindsay, the Bad Luck fan. She became Lindsay, the one who must always have it right and say the last word.
"Well then, you're quite a loser producer… you look like a bookworm…"
Sakano felt his nerves get on the edge again. But he knew he couldn't faint now, or start spinning, as Lindsay would laugh at him, and he started to really not like the girl.
Soon their discussion became quite animated, as Sakano didn't simply leave, for Lindsay's words hurt him deep inside.
They didn't even notice the small crowd gathering around them, eagerly watching each second of their wordfight.
"You're just a crazy little fangirl! But a great nuisance, I'm sure everyone thinks this!"
The fight had been going on for like 5 or 6 minutes then, and both were panting, as Sakano tried to end it with this sentence.
Only then they noticed the "spectacle" had drawn the attention of several passerbys.
Lindsay, hurt and decided to get her way, concluded it was the right moment for a great exit.
"You… you…"
She suddenly slapped Sakano.
"Dork!" and she left triumphantly.
If there are unclear bits, or unbelievable parts - everything will be fixed. Thank you already!
