Was It You All Along? {GiyuShino}

Chapter 15

Shinobu Kocho's POV

I can't believe that he said it...

"Awee look Shino!"

I heard Mitsuri cheering for some reason but this isn't where it goes wrong... The fans... What if they lose fans? Because of me..? No... It wasn't any of our fault... It was Nao's... I got a call from someone so I excused myself from Mitsuri and left for the balcony

"Shinobu Kocho?" Nao? Why is she calling me? "He likes you doesn't he?"

"Nao I'm sorry..."

"Stop lying Kocho, you did it on purpose... You always do this!"

"Does what??"

"Steal my reputation! Even since we were little! The teachers loved you! Everyone did!" is she saying that I ruined things for her? I was jealous of her

"I really-"

"You are going to pay... It's all your fault. He would have loved me if... You never existed!"

I... Was always a sensitive girl... How badly I want to hide it, I can't... Nao was a very good friend of mine, I thought she loved me... She used to take care of me... Or protect me from the bullies in middle school... But what was in her mind all along?

"You really will pay Shinobu Kocho, so watch your steps..." she hung up the phone as she completed her words

"Shinobu?" I heard Mitsuri behind me, I didn't like anyone else seeing me cry so I quickly wiped my tears. "Are you crying?!"

"Ahh no, dust fell on my eyes, pretty windy today no?"

"No? Are those perhaps happy tears??" I giggled at her comment.

"Don't worry Shino! I'll make sure that he treats you the way you want to be treated!"

The concert was gonna start any moment now, me and Mitsuri decided to come too or we would be bored at home, the boys decided to give a surprise concert at Upper Moon's concert. But of course, nobody knew about it

The Upper Moon was losing fans because of their cancelled concert, but it was cancelled because Akaza's Girlfriend was seriously ill and he had to go

The lights went down and the fans went hectic, the concert was gonna start

"Hello there Lower Moons~ Today, we will be having special guests!" the lights focused on Daki, which was her stage name, her real name was Ume. Unlike the Hashiras, the Upper Moons revealed their identities. "I want you guys to meet the top Band in Japan, The Hashiras themselves!!"

The crowd went even wilder and so did Mitsuri who was screaming at the top of her lungs, for some reason, I didn't feel as enthusiastic as before

The lights soon showed the boys on the stage and it looked like they were gonna say something before their show

"Hey there Lower Moons!" Obanai spoke. "This is a message to the Water Pillar's girlfriend, also my girlfriend's best friend"

"Shinobu it's to you!!" Mitsuri did her best not to scream and made it low just enough for me to hear it, she wrapped her arms around me in excitement... Let's just say that she was squeezing me

"Yeah so, I know that you don't like me dating your best friend, but I can guarantee you one thing, she will never shed a tear from my side. And if someone else makes her cry, I'll break their bones, so yeah you can trust me" Hehe, idiot... Obanai's passed the mike to Tomioka who was also gonna say something

"Well, to my girlfriend, and The Serpent Pillar's girlfriend's best friend,  I love you... A lot... and remember when you told me the way you wanted to be treated by your future lover? I promise you that I'll treat you like my everything, I'll put my life in line for you and will die for you... I love you Shinobu-" Oh god... Did he just say my name...? Even with his mask, I saw his regret for his acts...

I felt Mitsuri hold my hand... Oh dear, what am I going to do..?

                                  •~•

The concert was over and we walked to get a cab, there was no point in worrying about what just happened...

"Mitsuri!" we heard someone call out and it was Tengen. "Actually, it's Shinobu but anyway, Tomioka regrets his actions and is not coming out now" Tengen was taking deep breaths, I felt Mitsuri pull me forward

"Those idiots!" she muttered

"You mean, that idiot"

Tengen opened the door and the boys were all sitting in the living room

"Took you so long? He is acting all childish again" Sanemi pointed towards a room, Tomioka San must be in there, I walked close and knocked on the door

"Tomioka San! Stop acting like a 5-year-old and come out now!" he didn't respond. "I will break the damn door"

He still didn't respond to me so I took a few steps back, I lifted my leg getting ready to kick, I swung my leg and I did kick something... Which was not the door...

"Holy shit..." it was Tomioka San... I heard a loud laugh from behind, it was Tengen, and the others followed him with chuckles. Tomioka San held his stomach and growled in pain, I stood still trying to process what just happened...

I was trying to kick the door open but Tomioka San opened it first and the kick was directed to...

"OH MY GOD TOMIOKA SAN!!" I rushed to him but he laughed softly

"Punishment for acting childish?"

"I SWEAR THAT IT WASN'T ON PURPOSE!"
