chapter twenty-four ;suspicions?

y/n looked deadpan as she stared at herself through the mirror, she was now at home, sighing as she trailed her fingers in the kiss marks on her neck. with a flustered face and butterflies in her stomach as she thinks back to it she can't understand it either.

as that interaction ended with taishi calling out for them, the two just got small talking and then separated ways as if nothing happened. y/n slumped on her bed punched a pillow near her, and snuggled at her pillow as she screamed.

" hah...why do i feel like i'm being played right now? " she asked herself and shook her head as she couldn't understand his motives.

" maybe he's using me too? "

" please don't. "

at this point, her own questions were answered by herself, answers she wished to hear until she fell asleep.

" ah! that felt good! did you see her face? " kana asked. " kurokawa akane was sooo pissed! "

y/n was sipping at her f/d as she laughed a bit at her statement, the two earlier were so at their throats as y/n just watched on the sidelines.

" you're really messed up. "

" if i knew you'd be like this, i wouldn't have told you. "

" why do you fight with kurokawa so much? " melt asked. " even if it's temporary, she's dating aqua from your agency. you should get along... "

" it's just for business, right? " kana replied as she stared at his soul.

the convo continued kana, explaining about akane and how she acts and kinds of stuff. as y/n just listened in until the rehearsal started, she then yawned as she made her way to the piano, looking at the music sheet.

as they started acting, y/n hit the first note as it continued, the heavy yet soft melody echoed throughout the area making them stop acting and turn their heads to her position, as whoever heard it sent shivers down their spine.

" damn. "

" i feel like i'm in a real fight now. "

" no shit sherlock. "

they were stunned by how she played the piano and she seemed to enjoy it very much too. aqua looking from far smiled a bit as he crossed his arms leaning his back at the wall while akane, looked annoyed at her as she noticed aqua's expression.

little did she know, she was losing. hard.

as y/n noticed the sound of the clashing swords was no more, she looked at them confused about why they stopped, so, she also stopped.

" why did you guys stop...? " she asked nervously. " did i hit the wrong notes or was i too fast? "

" sorry, oh my, i was too awestruck to even move. it's very beautiful. " one of the actors replied as she scratched her head as some people agreed.

y/n laughed a bit as she felt like it was a compliment that her music is good, it was indeed a compliment.

" alright alright, back to work guys. stop tricking me with those words. " she joked as they laughed a bit at her remark.

" but it's good i swear. " kana added as melt patted her to continue the rehearsal.

precisely, they continued where they left on and had fun, especially enjoying hearing y/n play a piece live.

the day of the premiere has come, and many people gathered.

y/n was sitting trying to calm her heart down but no one could do so, as she smiled nervously.

" hey, how's doing there? " kana suddenly asked as she approached her making y/n smile.

" pretty great but can't deny that i'm nervous. " y/n replied as she fiddled with her fingers.

" don't worry too much, you'd do great i can feel it. " kana reassured making her smile ear to ear as the two high-fived.

" thanks, you will do good too! " she chirped.

y/n then looked around to look for someone but he wasn't even around, " where's- "

" aqua? " kana asked, finishing her sentence, and making y/n nod.

before kana could speak melt appeared and spoke, " aqua's in one of the private rooms. "

" private rooms? " y/n asked as her eyes trailed to the rooms. " ah, i see. thanks. "

she then stood up to go knock at the private room, hoping it was him already but no one answered.

" please do excuse me... " she mumbled as she noticed the door wasn't locked, turning the knob slowly and peeking inside to see aqua.

" hey. " she called out, still peeking at the door as aqua turned around to look at her, his once depressed face lightened up.

" y/n. " he called out. " you can come in. "

" i am not disturbing your meditation shits right? " she asked goofily as he shook his head making her come in and close the door behind her.

" you alright? " she suddenly asked as his lips formed a thin line making her sigh and understand it quickly.

" you can do it and overcome it, i swear. " y/n suddenly mentioned as she smiled at him and sat next to him.

" thank you, i appreciate it. " he replied quietly. " uh, so... "

when aqua was about to speak and bring up the topic of that night before, someone knocked and opened the door, calling them out as the play would start now.

" hm? " y/n asked as she tilted her head to the side waiting for him to finish his sentence.

" uh, it's nothing. " he replied as he shook his head. " we should keep going now as the others are waiting. "

" oh yeah! right. " she replied as he followed him from behind and caught up with him before patting his back while walking and grinning at him.

" goodluck! "

aqua's eyes softened as he looked away, as he blushed a bit but was hiding it.

" good luck to you too. "
