A/N Sooo....this chapter is going to be weird mostly because I have no idea how the music industry really works but on this stories case, I write it as a best guess. so if anyone knows let me know if I was wrong or not. also, the songs don't come as a logical order for their original release. I just write them as they fit in my opinion. Also in my mind, they all speak Japanese but Ari sings and speaks English, when not around his brothers and his schoolmates also he has slight trouble understanding Japanese even though it's his home language. Alone conversations are in English only. So yeah....enjoy?  


Ari P.O.V.

I closed the door only to be pulled down by Wataru. He took off my wig and pulled out my long white hair that I usually hid under the hoodie. They were too long to fit under the wig so I often combed them back and just put the wig on, and since I always wear hoodies I rarely remove hood when I'm outside with people I live with or go school with. Wataru likes to call me Snow because my hair is silver white and he's only one in my family whose seen my eyes in past 15 years. that's how long I've hidden them. The story why I hide is rather long and I don't really feel like sharing that today. "Wataru can you wait for a little, I'll take my note book so I can sit while you braid my hair." Wataru pouted a little and nodded taking a little box that had hair bands in it and a brush. "Can we listen one of your songs...I really like them.Even though I can't understand much English." Wataru said and I nodded. I sat down and pulled my laptop closer and played a song called Forest. "It's new...you're the first one to hear it. I was planning to send it later tonight to my manager to review but you can be my first feedback." I was starting to get slightly nervous. Even though it was my brother his opinion really mattered to me for some reason. He just nodded and started to comb my hair to braid it. Wataru has gotten really good at braiding mostly because every other night he braids my hair. I once asked why and all he said because they look pretty when they have braids in them. At first, the braids were murder to get out but later on, when he got better they were easy to remove and prettier too.  "It sounds so happy," he said after it ended and he played it again. It's not happy at all...he would know if he could speak English. "I have a song in mind..." I said and Wataru said "You gonna stay up all night trying to find the perfect melody. I don't mind...it's calming." I'm pretty sure he is older than 10 at least he often sounds wiser and more mature than his age. "Why do you act so child like around everyone else and not with me?" I asked "It's because if I act cute and childish I get more things and everyone will pay attention to me. I don't have to pretend when I'm with you." I smiled at that...more mature than his age indeed. "It's good to be with you." he added and I added "same." and with that, we listened to other songs of mine and sat in silence while he braided my hair. 

---Time skip cause I can---

When he was finally done it was late enough and time for him to go to sleep.  He yawned and I helped him under covers...putting his bunny next to him. "Have sweet dreams, I'll come to bed soon too," I said and he nodded and closed his eyes. "Play me a song," Wataru said with a sleepy voice and I sat behind my piano and tried to play the new melody that was floating around my mind the entire time he braided my hair. (A/N Think it without drums )

At first, I tried to find the perfect melody and then just like magic the words started to fit perfectly in my head and as soon as I heard Wataru little-sleeping noises I took my papers out and wrote down the melody. It didn't take me very long to write it all down and in my head, I already placed drums with that melody at first they didn't want to fit at all. but after few tries, I found the right rhythm and tapped it on the table while humming the melody. I glimpsed at the clock on my bedside table and noticed it was little past 4 am. Okay, maybe I didn't take as less time as I thought. Considering the fact that I've been sitting here past 5 hours. I yawned and looked outside it was starting to go light again so I decided I'll skip sleep and go have a coffee and walk. I wrote a letter to Wataru if he did wake up before I get back that I went for a walk. I went out the door and closed it locking it from outside. I walked down the stairs, I never liked to use elevator mostly because the noise they make. As I walked down the stairs to the kitchen all I heard was silence and I liked it. I made it to the kitchen and took a cup and put coffee maker to work. I turned and raised my arms stretching them towards the ceiling. then pulled back my braided hair and hid it under the hoodie i was wearing. my coffee was ready and i took a sip, regretting right away because it's burning heat. "Damn..." I said quietly shaking my head finding my own stupidity amusing. I let out a little sigh and took my cup and went to back yard that had fallen leaves from the tree near by. It was approaching to autumn already. Why do i have a feeling today is a day i won't like. Slowly walking around in a rather cool summer night drinking my now warm coffee. As i walked slowly enjoying the silence i noticed that there was light on, what i assumed is Subaru room. " I wonder if he hasn't gone to sleep or is he already up? Probably the last one, he does wake early to go running and then swimming. It must be a little bit over 5 Am then." I said and took the last sip from my cup. Empty already...that sucks. deciding to walk inside to wash the cup and as walking into the kitchen i heard the faint footsteps coming from the end of the hallway. Quickly washed the cup and put it to dry and walked out of the kitchen through a different door as Subaru entered it.  Subaru didn't see Ari who walked towards the stairs that go on upper floors. As entering my floor I stopped, thinking random things Who do I share the floor with?  well that door is Ukyo and that one is Kaname then comes Louis and Masaomi and at the end is Wataru.  I sigh and walk to my room and unlocked it opening the door and after entering closing and locking it. I laid down on the bed where Wataru was curled up and soon enough he grabbed my sleeve and pulled himself closer to me. Snuggling into me for some kind of comfort. I closed my eyes not really sleeping just thinking about everything.
