UtaPri: Ai x Reader

Ch. 16

I walked slowly up the stairs. I was so very tired. I just came back from an all night talk show, and I needed something to eat, drink, and most of all, sleep.
It seemed that I was walking in a shadow of dread because everyone I walked by seemed to stay away. "Ohayo, ________-senpai!" Otoya cried.
I glared at him, how could anyone be so peppy in the morning? He inched away, sensing the shadow of dread. "Ja, I'll be going to have some breakfast, then." He ran to the living room.
I looked toward the stairs, which seemed to be double. "N-nani?" I said, my words slurring. I could barely lift up my head or keep my eyes open.
"Ara, Senpai!" I heard a flirtatious voice call.
Then, I collapsed out of exhaustion.

"Oi, nani ga attanda?" I heard Ranmaru's voice, it was a bit distant.
"I don't know, she just collapsed!" Ren said to his senpai.
All of their voice were distant. There was worried chattering in the background.
"Let's just wait until Ai gets here." Rei-chan's voice said.
"Why would you wait until I get here?" Ai's voice asked. "Nani ga attanda?"
There were sounds of shuffling footsteps. And I heard Ai gasp.
"______, __________," he said, I felt his breath tickle my ear. "Kikoeru? Me wo akate. Ne, ________!"
I groaned as I struggled to open my eyes. Everyone sighed with relief. Then, assaulted me with questions.
I struggle to sit up, nearly falling off the couch. Ai caught me and placed my head on his lap.
"I came back about... Um, what time is it?" I asked.
"Ten." Masato piped in.
"Okay, I came back, like, maybe three hours ago... And, I was hungry, and thirsty, and tired, and I still am. So, I guess I just collapsed out of exhaustion."
"I caught you!" Ren said.
"Arigato." I said. "I want to sleep."
"Iya," Ai said. "Your going to eat something and then go to sleep."
"Aww!" I complained.
Everyone left us alone. And, I sat up, with the help of Ai.
"I have to host a fashion show. JBC, Japan Boys Collection." Ai said. "I have to help out Camus."
I nodded. "I'm free today. Can I help out backstage?" I asked.
He smiled. "Of course."
He picked up a piece of toast from the table and handed it to me.
"Iya da. Cereal, cereal." I complained.
He sighed. "Hai, hai." And picked up a bowl, filled it with cereal, then milk. He handed it to me. I reach out for it, my hands shaking. Then, he shook his head. "You might drop the bowl. Here, I'll feed you."
I smiled as he settled down next to me. "Ahh." I said, opening my mouth.
He put the spoon in my mouth, and I suddenly remembered the day Ai let me have some of his jello.
Ai fed me a few more spoonfuls, then straightened. "They're here," he said. "The fans."
I nodded. "I'm still hungry."
After he shot me a kawaii lopsided smile, he held up the spoon to my mouth. I opened my mouth slightly, he dropped the spoon and the bowl, and his lips met mine. I gasped a little, quite unready for that.
He pulled back after a while. His eyes were shining. There were small squeals from the fans. They thought we were acting. How wrong were they.
I yawned a little, and curled up next to Ai. He stroked my hair. "Oyasuminasai." He whispered.

"Ne, _______." I heard Ai call. "It's almost time for me to attend the JBC. You have a few minutes to get ready."
I groaned. "Iya da!" I mumbled. "I want to stay here with you."
I felt him move away, and I opened my eyes. "In fifteen minutes meet me at the drive way."
I got up, a frown on my face. He was always taking charge. I made my way back to my dorm.
"Senapi!" Haruka said, smiling. "Are you going to the JBC, too?"
I nodded. "I'm taking the limo with Ai and Camus. Newbies walk." I teased. "Just don't get lost."
She put on a sheepish grin. "Hai~"
She left after that, and I got ready. I took a quick shower, toweled off my hair, then put on a (f/c) high waisted skirt, a cropped white blouse, a (f/c) scarf, a fedora, and boots. Then, since I was going to a fashion show with high quality style, I decide to put on make up. A light pink eye shadow, mascara, deep red lipstick, and no blush.
I smiled at myself, and rushed down the stairs, to bump into Ren, again.
"Yo, senpai." He said with a dazzling smile. "You're taking the car, right? With Camus and Ai-Senapi?"
"Hai, and I'm running-" I started.
He cut me off by entwining my hand in his and running for the exit. Man, these Kohais were so pushy. They were always pulling me around... Well, I am only 15. About a year or two younger than they are. Grrr, that doesn't mean they can just drag me anywhere!
Once we were outside, I wriggled free of the player boy's hold, and walked p the car at my own pace. Then, I realized. He was doing the fashion show, too. And that would mean...
"I'm riding with you, my lovely senpai." Ren said sweetly.
I nearly gagged, but, I held myself together and walked into the car. I sat next to Ai, who was sitting across from Camus, and next to Camus was Ren.
This is going to be a long ride, I thought. Glaring at the smiling kohai.
