The Switch II (An UtaPri Fanfic)

Chapter 4

Reiji could not believe his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, he was on his way to the airport to catch a plane for Tokyo with his two adorable kouhais beside him. Tokiya went to settle their plane tickets while he and Otoya bought some snacks for the ride, with the brunet's claim that his juniors were growing boys who might get hungry anytime soon.

Okay – it was just Reiji's excuse to eat what he wanted. It was a difficult time for him ever since the youngest member of Quartet Night restricted him with the food he usually ate and this trip served as a chance for the clown sempai to chow down without someone reminding him of his calorie intake when munching on a chicken drumstick.

"Rei-chan~ are you sure we need this much food?" Otoya asked, eyeing the multiple bags of chips his senior had in the basket. "We're only there for a week."

"Exactly why we need we need all these!" Reiji chirped. "Better safe than sorry!"

"There are plenty of restaurants in Tokyo. Plus, I don't think Tokiya will approve of these..." The red-head reasoned. His health conscious roommate was bound to be irked with the stuff Reiji bought since the vocalist considered it to be unhealthy. "He'll give another lecture about the importance of vegetable and fruits in your diet again."

"You're right Otoyan! I almost forgot about Toki!" Reiji exclaimed and grabbed a bag of salad flavoured potato chips. "He likes stuff that tastes like leaves and garden soil, right? This brand of chips is for him!"

Otoya sweatdropped while his sempai kept rambling how thoughtful he was. Tokiya wouldn't exactly appreciate the act no matter how good the intention was; he would certainly be far from amused at the artificial flavourings and there was no greater mockery than to present a salad flavoured snack to the perfectionist.

When he deemed to have sufficient amount of food, Reiji grinned. "This seems enough! To the counter!"

The duo went to the counter and after paying – and Reiji flirting with the cashier while Otoya stood awkwardly at the side – they walked to wherever Tokiya was and as expected, the dark-haired teen frowned upon seeing the bag of health hazards.

"What're those?" The idol questioned.

The maracas sempai beamed. "Food for the trip~ Look, Toki! I got you chips that taste like salad!"

If looks could kill, the defenseless chips would have holes bore on its packaging due to the death glare sent by the perfectionist. On a regular basis, Tokiya would have lectured his sempai about the importance of eating healthy but he was tired and in no mood to do so as of the moment therefore he decided to save the scolding for later. Sighing, the tall male took a seat and his companions followed suit. They waited a while before they finally boarded the plane and although Tokiya wanted to sit near the window, he was OKAY being in the center thus separating his hyper roommate and his equally hyper sempai. God knows the apocalypse that was to come when those two were placed beside each other.

"Ne, Rei-chan! The view's so nice here!" Otoya exclaimed as he stared out the window.

"Really? Let me see!"

The clown sempai lunged towards the red-head and squished their faces on the small window, and awed at the scenery. Stuck in the middle, Tokiya let out a sigh of annoyance. Apocalypse be damned – he should have traded places with Reiji who was sitting near the aisle if it meant saving his personal space!

'Patience, Tokiya. Just 20 minutes more to go...'

Twenty minutes seemed like a long time for Tokiya who, by the way, was on the verge of kicking his companions out the plane. It wasn't exactly pretty when the two idiots suddenly turned green when the plane did a slight tilt from one side to the other. The perfectionist couldn't stand being in the middle of the vomiting duo and worse that he had no chance of escaping!
