UtaPri: Ai x Reader

Ch. 25: Let's Shining TV!

Today, there was no sign of STARISH in the dining hall.
I picked out a tray of (fav. breakfast food) and took my rightful seat next to Ai.
"Ne, minna," Rei-chan said through a mouthful of toast. "Did you hear? Our kohai-chans asked if they could be entered into the Triple S."
Camus grimaced. "So naive."
I leaned back and smiled. "I'm fine with it. They're not going to beat us a second time!"
"You said it!" Rei-chan said, giving me a highfive, his hand sticky with maple syrup.
I stuck my tongue out. "Eww.." And, wiped the substance on Ai's sleeve.
"Chotto, ________!" He cried, glaring at his sleeve.
I winked. "Gomen, gomen." And blew him a kiss. "I owe you one, ne?"
"You owe me more than one." He said, going back to his breakfast.

*time skip*

"Zurui~" I complained. "We have to go straight to the mansion while STARISH gets to go to the beach first!"
Rei-chan nodded. "It's not fair!"
"NOT FAIR~~" -_- we yelled in unison.
"URUSAI!" Ranmaru snapped, leaning back in his seat.
"Hai..." We said quietly.
It was a clear day. No clouds, just warm sunshine, a beautiful garden, and the comfy, white chairs we were sitting on.
"Ohayo-pu!" Ringo cried, he, Ryuya, and STARISH coming towards us. "You have been summoned because you all have a two day schedule ahead of you! Here are your scripts and Ryuya will explain."
"There are two parts to your schedule." Ryuya announced as Ringo handed us the scripts. "Today, you will appear on Shining's variety show-Let's Shining TV! You will be split up in groups according to your scripts. Ai, ________, you two have to scripts because there has been a whole lot of requests with some romance between you."
'Play it cool,' I thought. 'The public still thinks we're acting.'
"Hai, hai," I said, bored.
"Wakarimashita." Ai answered in his monotone voice.
Ryuya nodded. "And, tomorrow, we will be have a photo shoot on the beach for a calendar. Do you understand you schedules?"
"Hai~" w all answered.
"Rei-chan!" Otoya cried. "Yorishiku onegaishimasu!"
Rei-chan smiled. "Hai, yorishiku-ma-cha-chan!" He paused. "By the way, Otoyan, I heard that you guys made a request to Shining to be entered for the Triple S."
"That's right." Tokiya pipped up. "But we were declined."
"So naive!" Ranmaru put in.
"You guys actually believed he would say yes?" Camus asked. "Ametures!"
"That's kinda harsh." Rei-chan said.
"It is, but it's true!" I interjected.
"But, you're not going to give up, are you?" Ai asked.
"Of course not, Ai-chan!" Natsuki said.
"It's all according to my past data, you guys have acted the same way before." Ai said, turning back to his second script.
"Ii yo. Ii yo!" Rei-chan said. "Onii-san loves boys who work hard!"

I jumped up and down, excited. My first script was to swim with dolphins. Since my program was right after the briefing, everyone decided to watch.
"Ne, Ai," I whispered. "Hold your nose."
He cocked his head sideways. "Nande?"
"Because I'm gonna wear a bikini!" I teased.
His eyes widened.
"You really are a hentai!" I teased.
He shook his head. "Iie!"
I made my way to the trailer, and slipped on a (fav. color) bikini and a life vest. Some lady braided my hair over my shoulder and nodded.
I stepped out, barefooted.
Both STARISH and QUARTET NIGHT piled onto the boat with me.
The camera turned on, and I smiled. "Domo, domo, minna!" I said brightly. "Today is such a wonderful day, out on the beach!"
Just as it was predicted, the dolphins appeared near the boat.
"Waa!" I cried happily. "Even the dolphins want to join us on such a wonderful day!"
The boat stopped and I looked to the camera. "Or maybe I should join them!"
Hating the life vest (A/N: like I always have. HATE EM!) I unclipped it and threw it off, not according to the script. All of the boys' jaws dropped. I whirled around and jumped right into the water, a cool shock coming over me as I jumped in.
I shivered from excitement and the cool water. 'This is gonna be fun!' I thought.
The dolphins met up with me. One nudged me, and I petted it with a smile.
"Konnichiwa." I said. "I hope you don't mind me invading your domain."
One jumped up into the air, another splashed me.
"Hey!" I cried with a giggle, slashing it back.
Back and forth, water sprayed.
My program ended with everyone who was on the boat, off the boat.

I took my time as I showered and dried off my hair and changed. Ai's program would end a little after 9:30 p.m.
The dress I wore was a light (fav. color) strapless hi-low dress with white trim. My shoes were matching pumps. My hair was curled on the ends and the only jewelry I wore was a simple silver necklace with a music note charm. My door opened, and one of the filming guys appeared, and escorted me to the place we were suppose to be.
The script had set me on edge a little. It had a secret location and a single line that said "follow your heart."
Well, the scene was beautiful.
A table set for two. Candles surrounded the table, all on the floor. A pool glittered in the moonlight, right beside the table. Ai stood by the chair in a white tux. He held out a red rose to me.
"_________." He said, handing me the rose. "You look prettier than ever."
I hugged him, the feeling that had set me on edge disappeared.
"Shall we have a bite to eat?" He asked, pulling out my seat for me.
I glanced down as the chef set down a silver platter and pulled off the cover.
I burst into giggles as soon as I saw what we were going to "have a bite" of. Small tarts with different fruits and chocolates surrounded one small plate of jello.
My gaze met Ai's challenging one. We both reached down for the jello first, but he beat me to it.
"You owe me." Ai teased. "Way more than one."
I pouted as I lifted up a tart with chocolate.
The script said to follow my heart. My heart was telling me to throw the tart at Ai so I could eat the jello.
I tossed the tart at Ai, and it landed right on his nose.
I could hear the camera and mic men trying not to laugh. Ai's eyebrow twitched. "_____!" He said dangerously. "If you wanted the jello, you should've just said!"
He threw the jello at me, which landed in my hair with a splat. I stood and flipped the tray of tarts onto Ai's lap. He threw whatever tarts he could salvage at me. What was suppose to be a romantic scene was now covered in whipped cream, chocolate, and immaturity.
I flipped the table, laughing. Ai giggled a little.
I stepped back as he threw a piece of tart at me. I slipped on the whipped cream on the floor, nearly falling into the pool. Ai caught me.
He smiled gently at me. I smiled gently, then, smirked. He looked puzzled. I stood up, dead legged him, he fell forward, and would've regained his balance if I didn't push him. He fell right into the pool.
He frowned. "________~" he complained.
"Gomen, gomen." I said, holding out a hand. He took it.
I realized my mistake too late, he pulled me in.
"Ai~" it was my turn to complain.
He kissed me gently. "And yet you still owe me."

I walked to the beach with the rest of QUARTET NIGHT.
It was 2:30 a.m. and the sun was rising.
We could hear STARISH compliment us and wonder about HEAVENS. Me, I was quite flattered and could careless about HEAVENS.
"Oh, come on," Reiji called. "You should have more spirit than that."
"You guys will never make it if you're like that." Ranmaru called.
"You're against US after all." Camus said.
"And, you need more than just spirit to take us on." Ai said.
"We're serious about this! STARISH said.
"Then, show us!" I called. "Reach our level! Show us you can do it!"
Reiji laughed. "Let's aim hight together, ne?!"

And, our two day schedule ended with a song and a selfie. I was definitely going to buy those calendars.

Done! I loved this episode, like you don't even know! FANSERVICE! Lol, sorry about that last part. I got lazy. So, did I make your heart go Doki~Doki~?
