OdaPon I

"Again!"

"I'm sorry..."

"Dance better!"

"I'm sorry..."

"Why can't you get it right?"

"I'm sorry!"

Was what Oda Nana had to endure as a constant back line member. It was always a dream of hers to be an idol; the fans, the stage, the uniforms and costumes, new friends, but behind the scenes it was all nothing but a dark place full of lies. Once all cameras were turned off, the members are rushed, pushed, given advice; good and bad. Although they were one as a whole group, special treatment were given to those in front compared to the back who got harsh critiques.

As four years had passed and the group were now recruiting the next generation, those who had been stuck in the back line in the past for senbatsu's should by now have gotten used to all the harassment however, not one person had.

Oda Nana, at this very moment had been sitting in her tub for over half an hour. Her eyes felt strained and puffy from all the crying she had done. She was frustrated, angry, and depressed. There had been multiple times where the girl would think about quitting, but she loved her fans and friends too much to leave everything behind. She loved performing with her members. She was grateful to be given another opportunity to escape the back line for their most recent single, but was it enough? Was she happy? Of course she wasn't. Did management think she'd forget about the three years of poor treatment she'd received? It was scarred within her memories.

Now fully dressed, Oda Nana walks out of her bathroom. She drags her feet over to her bed and tucks herself in, burying her head inside her blanket where her tears began to fall again. It was still early in the evening, but she wasn't in any mood to prepare her dinner.

There was a knock on her door. Assuming that it was Nanako or Risa, she remained quiet; hoping whoever was out there would think she was sleeping.

"Nana?"

Oda Nana's brows frown in confusion, surprised by the familiar voice. She throws the blanket off her head.

"Yui?"

"Ah! You are awake... um, may I come in?... I brought food."

Oda Nana by now was freaking out. She jumps out of bed whilst wiping any existing tears from her face before throwing her hair into a small messy ponytail.

"Hold on a second!" She yells to Kobayashi Yui.

She quickly throws her dirty practice clothes into the nearby hamper. She runs into the bathroom and rids of her damp smelling towels; even though she had cleaned them. She runs back out, quickly scanning her bedroom before widely opening the door.

There stood Kobayashi Yui looking as beautiful as she always did, clad in a brand new looking white t-shirt and black tight jeans, holding a clear bag which contained the food she had mentioned. Even in the simplest fashion, Oda Nana would still gawk at how perfect Kobayashi Yui was.

"Sorry I took long, come in."

"You didn't have to clean." She snickers upon scanning the room as she enters.

"Eh? Of course I did."

Yui laughs, placing the bag onto the centre table and sits, Oda Nana following along. "It wasn't this
clean when me, Nen, Oze, and Risa came the last time... plus, I'm sure it couldn't have been as bad as
Nijipon's."

Kobayashi Yui takes out the contents from the bag she brought in.

"I got sashimi; because I was craving something fresh, and Karaage bento's, I hope you don't mind."

Oda Nana, the next morning, had awoken restrained by arms that belonged to Kobayashi Yui. They had stayed up quite late last night talking about each other's problems and feelings that Oda Nana had invited her to sleep over. She told Kobayashi Yui about her depression, and Kobayashi Yui told her about hers. Although Kobayashi Yui was never seen as the crybaby type among the members, Oda Nana was shocked and hurt at the same time when the younger girl had broken down in front of her. It had been the first time alone, and Oda Nana felt the need to set aside her own feelings once more and protect the girl.

They'd decided to call it a night when things had calmed down. Kobayashi Yui had immediately latched herself to Oda Nana's torso, her sleeping habit. Inside, Oda Nana was screaming at her cuteness. And that was how they slept.

Oda Nana carefully reaches over to her bedside table to retrieve her phone, taking a snap of the sleeping Kobayashi Yui for her blog later before waking her up.
