The Hidden Secrets (COMPLETED)

Chapter 3

~The next day
Ako's POV
We were waiting for the selection to start. What we know is that the order of performing will be selected by a lottery. We got last, Laura Mahiru and I were so scared since we'll be performing as the closing act for the selection. Yume was nervous about this but tried to stay calm and helped us calm down as well.

Yume's POV
We were all nervous but we tried staying calm. But I know that inside of me I'm actually really excited. I saw the girls' scared expressions, so I tried to help, later before our show with a bit of time I saw my brother so I texted him to meet me outside of the hall. I ran outside and found that he beat me there.
"Hello oni-San" I said excited.
"Oh hey Yume!" He replied with a smile.
I ran to him and we hid behind a tree so no one can see us.
"So when are you gonna perform?" He asked me.
"Last." I replied and tried to hide my worried face.
"So why are you nervous? You'll be the closing act." He said.
"That is the problem my whole team is nervous because we'll be the closing act! Of course to you it's nothing but to the others and I it's such a rare opportunity to be able to perform with S4! But I have a question were you that nervous when you had your first performance?"
"Well of course I was and I still am. But the feeling of being nervous slowly vanishes as I look at the smiling faces of the fans." He answered trying to reassure me.
"And now how am I supposed to calm down, you think looking at my fans will help?" I asked wanting an answer.
"Well I don't know, but what I do know is that you should be heading back because you are preforming in 5 minuets. And by the way remember that just standing on stage will help you calm down, and hopefully looking at your fans' faces will help you become motivated to do your best." He answered while showing me the time.
"Oh My God! You idiot why didn't you tell me sooner, now I might be late! But anyways thanks for the advise!" I said as I rushed towards the door of the hall.
I busted through the door to our waiting room and then I heard, "seriously yume where were you. You got us worried sick we thought you wouldn't come! Anyways thank god you came." Laura shouting at me.
I told her I'm sorry then I showed a smirk on my face and shouted, "come guys we can do it. We'll win and perform with S4."
"Ya!" we shouted together as we through our hands in the sky.
We then heard our names being called onto the stage. We rushed to the dressing room and got onto the stage and waved at the audience and then we performed.

When we finished we looked at the audience to see them in a state of amusement. Then everyone stood up and clapped their hardest. Then we got off the stage waiting for the results to come out.
Yume's POV
Everyone waited anxiously for 15 mins then S4 came up the stage and started saying:
"We have seen so many amazing performances in the auditions today,"Yozora-senpai stated.
"But only one stood out," Yuzu- senpai continued.
"And that group is!" Tsubasa-senpai continued.
"Well honestly I can say the group without looking at the paper," Hime-senpai said, the group is the group of Yume Nijino Laura Sakuraba Mahiru Kasumi and Ako Saotome!" She said as she revealed the paper to the camera to show the entire crowd.
I couldn't believe it we heard. The crowd went crazy because Hime-senpai was right, we did win!
I was so happy and so were the rest. Then we calmed down a bit because we had to go up the stage.
~after the selection ended
"Hey sis!" I saw Kasumi-senpai run towards Mahiru with his arms wide open, but what surprised me was that Mahiru hit her brother instead of hugging him.
"Oh there he is!"I could hear Yuki-Senpai say as he and the other 2 members of M4 came in our direction.
"Oh hey Kira-senpai, Yuki-senpai, and Igarashi-senpai what are you doing here?" I asked them.
"Well you see Asahi here wanted to congratulate his sister as soon as he saw her, and when he saw her he dashed away and we searched for 5 mins for him," Yuki-senpai said.
And please no need for the formalities, you can call me Subaru." He continued.
"Ok Subaru-senpai!" I said cheerfully.
"Same here." The 3 other members said.
Then after 9 mins of talking, I took out my phone and texted my brother to tell him to meet me behind a tree.
Author's POV
Kanata's phong rang, as he took it out he read the message and excused himself because he had an important thing to do.
Then Yume excused herself too and ran in the same direction Kanata went.
"Oh hey oni-san, sorry I was late but I didn't want any person to being suspicious." Yume  said as she approached her big brother.
