UtaPri: Ai x Reader

Ch. 33: Answer

We sat on the porch. It was late night, but we still had some work to do.
"Me, minna." Reiji said. "Will QUARTET NIGHT really work out?"
We all looked at him, silent. But, we could all feel it in the air, the answer.
We didn't know.

*time skip cause I'm lazy*

"I refuse!" I cried.
It was me, Camus, Ai, and Ranmaru. Thy told me we were taking a break and dragged me to this nice mansion. A little time passed and Ai told me that the main reason we were there was because we were going to write a song... made by Nanami herself.
"______." The three of them said.
"I refuse rising anything made by her. I refuse to be near her!" I cried. "She's taking my place and I can't stand it anymore!"
Ai hugged me as I felt silent tears fall down my face. "Onegai. For QUARTET NIGHT."
I shook my head. "She's charmed you, she's charmed Reiji, Camus, and even Ranmaru! I. Don't. Want. To."
They all looked at me, desperate.
"Please, ______." They said. "It's the Triple S. We can't just abandon it."
"Shining wants us to shine as idols. With some one else pulling the stings in our composition. I can't stand it." I said. "She writes after learning about the person! I do that, too! Who else has a right to write for you other than me?!"
Ai hugged me tighter. "We know, _____. You're suffering the most from it. We're suffering, too. Please. Do it. We'll let you do anything or have anything you want."
I looked to them. "Anything?"
They nodded.
'Then, I have to tell them what I'm feeling. What I'm doing after the Triple S.' I thought.
"Fine." I said, wiping away my tears. "If you guys want me to sing her song and perform on the Triple S..."
They nodded, leaning in.
"I quit right after the Triple S is over. She can be the composer for this group for all I care."
They all looked at me in shock. "_____?!"
"I've already made up my mind, minna." I said. "I'm done being in the shadows. Do you know how embarrassing it is to be called a senpai when your kohai has a great status than you do?!"
They stayed silent, Ai's arms around my waist tightened. "You promised." He whispered in my ear.
"I know. Gomen ne, Ai. I'm not that strong."

***

I stayed quiet. Everyone stayed quiet. The days that passed while she was there was quiet.
She composed the song. (The Dice are Cast)
And of course, it was perfect, even though she barely knows us.
I slept with Ai that last night.
I cried silently into his chest as he held me.
How could I describe this feeling?
Sadness mixed with pain an sorrow and regret. That's all I felt when I sang her song. It hurt me. Like I was allergic to it.

We turned on the day after. The 5 of us were quiet. Reiji found out the day we left that I would be leaving.
Everyone one if us was sad, so we decided to watch something that matched our moods- the news.
What's more sad than the news?
It matched or mood all too much.
The people loved us.
The people loved STARISH.
They wanted both of our groups to be represented in the Triple S.
