Tokyo Nights
"Encore! Encore!" It sounded from the warm, sweaty concert room, the fans screamed exited
as the singer finished the last lines of the song.
The atmosphere was bittersweet. Bittersweet? You may ask,
Sweet for the awesome concert and bitter for the horrible sweat smell.
Even though it is one of Japans largest concert arenas, it seemed to be too small for the huge crowd of fans that jumped up and down, in rythm of the songs.
"Encore, encore, encore!"
The fans shouted in excitement, and waved their arms longingly up to the stage.
Trying franticly to catch some of the singers sparkling charisma.
It was hard to get the huge audience to be quiet enough to speak!
As the audience finally kept still enough, he spoke with his soft and unique voice. It was so soft you could hardly notice the week and small trembling in his voice that the nervousness caused. He licked his lips to try to make them moist again. He wanted water so badly; it hadn't touched his lips in what seemed like forever. He swallowed once more before he continued;
"….thank you for coming, everyone!-" in no time the fans screamed "encore! Encore!" again.
They seemed very happy, and made him nervous.
He scratched his beautiful chin and looked at his twin brother on guitars.
His twin saw that he looked at him and rolled his eyes exasperated and noted. The singer turned around again to the fans waiting awe, their eyes big and full of hope of another song.
"-okay, okay… One last song…" He grinned weekly looking tired down to the fans, smiling so he wouldn't worry them. But his twin looked as if he had changed his mind in a flash and ran to him, whispering something in his ear.
The singer eyed him, and bit his lip, his face changed colour, but he didn't want to break the promise he just made to the audience and shook his head in protest. "..Only ONE Song, Mamoru...ONE" He whispered desperately and his twin, named 'Mamoru' he finally gave inn and went back to his place.
"Sorry that! You know Mamoru, don't cha?" He giggled childish and some of the girls began to bleed from their nooses, almost passing out!
"Yes, Hideki!" They screamed to the singer, Hideki.
He was one of four people that graduated university in the shocking age of 13 together with his twin brother Mamoru. Now he was 18 and had just made his comeback after 3 years…
"Okay, who want to sing the last song with me?" He asked winking. The band Tokyo Nights
Was Japans hottest band right now and their popularity never seemed to die. They where the top of the very top in the music business and where quickly gaining fans all over the world with their hit "Needing you" on the Americas biggest music chart, "Big Bord" list for over 1 year , making a new record.
They where almost blown away by the loud screaming. Hideki was without any doubt the most popular of them all. The screaming of the fan girls seemed endless.
"Hideki, Pick me!" "I LOVE YOU!!" "MARRY ME!" "Please, Hideki!" the screaming was overwhelming, and Hideki could feel his pulse running, and he wiped off the sweat that pored down his face. He mumbled something as his face got stoned in surprise. He went to the edge of the stage and bent down, the fan girls went crazy in touching him, but Hideki didn't care.
"May I?"
Hideki asked a girl with light brown hair and brown eyes. The girl blushed madly, her eyes sparkled.
"O-o-ofco-corse..." The girl stuttered. The other fans seemed to be disappointed and at a loss. Hideki helped the girl up on the stage. She was trembling and shaking so much the lilac top of hers, and the black skirt seemed to cold to wear even in the summer heat!
She put her hand in his for the first time and she knew that it was her last too; awhile he pulled her up on stage. She had to control her self; she knew that…
But even though tears streamed down her face and ruined her makeup.
And Hideki gasped in surprise. She didn't know what to do!
Her biggest moment in her lifetime and she was ruining it!
She tried to stop but it was in possible, suddenly without any warning he hugged her tight, and the girl's eyes whined in surprise.
"Don't you ever let go..." he whispered.
Mamoru was confused and meet the drummer, 'Nachi Yamamura's' eyes.
Was this in the schedule? He didn't know, eider did Nachi, or
"Nachos" as he was called by the European and the American fans.
He titled his head backstage to where their manager 'Mimmi Honda' was.
She glanced him and smiled her sexy and neat smile that only she could. She was originally American, but came to Japan in the age of 3, she was now 28 , and changed her last name to "Honda" she wore a casual grey business suit and black high heeled shoes.
"What is it, sugar top?" She asked.
"Is that in the schedule? Mamoru asked and pointed at Hideki and the girl who hugged on the stage. Mimmi gasped and looked at a loss.
Please Hideki pull this off nicely!
Mimmi thought. As Nachi dragged the bassist
'Takao Suzuki' with him backstage Hideki tithed his grip of the fan.
"What in this world is going on??"
he shouted as his green striped hair hung down over the bass. Takao was originally from Great Britain so his English was fluent as his Japanese; he had come to Japan due his parent's diplomacy when he was seven and he had an adopted sister from Mongolia named "Jasmine" but they only called her Jaz or sometimes Jazzy.
Mimmi put her finger on her lips and wicked awhile Mamoru Said SHIIIIIIIIII! Sweating nervous. But that was no use; cuss the audience was holing their breath,
just watching the two of them. Hideki and the fan girl. But then without hesitation he opened his eyes wide. He mumbled something beneath his breath, and then let her go but grabbed her hand.
Hideki the vocalist of Angel's favourite band just agreed on playing one more song that made her both worried and warm inside. Worried because this was his first concert in 3 years and he looked pale, almost purple of exhaustion, and deeply touched by the fact that this was the tenth encore. That he would make himself almost half dead for his fans.
This made her smile and she could feel her heart burning.
She got bad self-conscious right away by it. After all she was Mamorus girl friend now…
She had to forget things from the past! Throw it away, her mind loved Mamoru…? She had to question that.
But her heart was in love with Hideki…
She cursed herself when she got jealous of the fan girl when Hideki picked a random girl and not her to sing the last song with him.
She would never get the chance ever again poor thing. She had to accept it and deal with it.
Then he suddenly snuggled with her?? No he only had hugged her tight…
Angel was furious, her best friend who was there too noticed and bumped into her.
"Jealous?" She grinned.
She 'Sayuki Kyoyama' had lived next door since kindergarten where she had meet Hideki for the first time. His brother, Mamoru her boyfriend too.
"Of Corse not!" she whispered angry before she continued
"Mamoru is so much more grownup, calm and hotter than Hideki! He's just a wanna be visualkei artist who is childish and...-and!! Stupid!"
Sayuki just grabbed over her mouth to shut her up. She pointed at the stage
Hideki seemed to finally let go off her go.
"So I'm proud to show you guys a brand new song! And it's called "You don't dare to let go, honey"! So please suite yourself, and get ready to the best song of ours ever!! "
Nachi got chills down his spine and looked desperately at Mimmi who pushed him and the other band members out, mouthing a "good luck"
But we haven't rehearsed that song!
He mouthed back.
Don't worry. Have a little faith in him!
Mimmi winked with her black long eye lash.
He saw a glimpse when Hideki didn't hold the Microphone and shouted.
"Please give us a minute Ladies, we will make it up to you!" And winked sexy and charming.
The Nachi fans screamed especially when they saw his t-skirt.
Angel cursed Nachi for wearing such a perverted t-skirt it was black to suite the others with a red sign that pointed down in his pants, with the text "Do you want a ride?"
She cursed the perverted minded fan girls too.
Nachi pushed Hideki, Mamoru and Takao into the backstage. And shouted but not as loud as the fans heared.
"Are you nuts?? That's a bad, bad song YOU made in your half sleep! We can't perform that!"
Mamoru looked scary at Nachi before he put his hand on his shoulder.
"How DARE you call my twin's songs bad….?"
Nachi shivered.
"… Just kidding." He said and grinned.
He then turned from a Nachi who looked as if he was traumatized the rest of his life,
to Hideki.
"The song is bad Hideki... sorry to say but…"
He looked at Takao for support. Takaos blue eyes meet Hidekis brown; they only steered for a minute or so before Takao smiled and opened his mouth.
"Sorry mate." Was the only thing he said, and he said it in his beautiful GB English.
"But I said we would perform that one! I can't go back on my word! Besides you said you liked it before Tak-kun!" Takao opened his moth but closed it again. He turned red in his chicks.
"Of Corse, you can go back on your word! Words are just words! Didn't you say so too?
Besides you ARE tired, I can see that clearly, even if you weren't my twin."
"But I am not!" Hideki shouted so loud that the fans seemed surprised.
"Ops! S-sorry" He whispered. Mamoru just sighed.
"Boys! Hurry up!" Mimmi hissed. The fan girl just stood there on the empty stages looking confused. Hideki bit his lip, and then said in a hurry.
"We don't have time to argue! Let's take "Needing you" then!"
"Humph. Finally…are you with him guys? "Mamoru said smiling.
"H** yes!" The boys said and they ran out on stage.
Hideki wrapped his girly fingers around the Microphone. And began to sing
I was standing still inn time.
Oh baby, Oh baby
Damn! Nachi cursed Hideki for doing this. This was not "Needing you" This was one of Hidekis crappy songs! Damn! He had to the end of the cores to remember the melody,
They had only played with it when they where kids!
Oh babe I can't move on without you.
(Ooooh)
The cord singers tried their best to sing it too, Mimicking Hideki.
Your sweet lips turn me to ice!
Damn! DAMN! Mamoru thought as they drifted on to the cores, Could he remember the melody…?
Mamoru began playing the guitar softly to Hidekis song
Testing out, before he felt completely comfortable to it.
Corse: Love me babe, love me!
I know it's a tabu
I know it's forbidden, but love me!
Takao and Nachi eyed each other, Takao swallowed
Before he and Nachi was in the game.
Looovvveee meeee
I desiere youuuuu
Both Nachi and Takao was playing now.
You used to always me here
For meeee
Here in my bleeding heart
But now you're gone
I can't breath on my own

To let gooooooo
The fan girl didn't know the song poor thing, but she danced happy, and sometimes she sang with Hideki, she seemed to enjoy herself.
"Thank you, everybody!" Hideki shouted especially to you! He held the fan girl's hands smiling; the girl on the other hand looked like she would die right on that spot.
"…what's your name…?" He asked her.
"W-Wilemina…" She whispered.
"Ah, Willy-chan, right?"
The girl noted her head.
"Ahh... What a pretty name!" Hideki smiled and…
The audience gasped.
Akito!!! Corse you! Damn it, you can't just go on like that! Stupid!!
Angel thought, and went a little wild…
"Angel! Control you're self!" Sayuki said awhile she tried to keep Angel from go and slap Hideki.
Hideki smiled to a blushing, tomato red Wilemina, after he had kissed her on the…
Nose.
At first she seemed completely lost, not knowing what to say or do, but then she burst into laughter. Hideki did too. The hole audience laught…
Or almost……..
Angel didn't laugh.
"That was a nice concert! Good job, as always!" Amy the toastmaster said.
"Tch, tch it was all because of Hideki… we hadn't rehearsed it yet. It was like, the first real time we preformed it!" Nachi said with a laugh.
"But, it was good! Awesome! "
"Well… I don't think we can call that our best…but thanks!" Nachi winked to her and she blushed thought she was 31 years old…
After the show everyone backstage was smiling brightly…
Just not
Hideki.
Angel was walking home, and as a dog Sayuki followed her.
It had been cute at first right after the concert, but now it was getting on her nerves.
"Sayuki?" She asked, and saw behind her.
"Huh?" Sayuki asked back all cute.
"Why… are you following me…?"
"We live in same apartment, remember" She said and grinned.
Suddenly out of nowhere a limousine in speed showed up throwing a huge splash of water on Angels dress. It had been raining these days. Angel loved the rain; she knew that
Hideki did too.
"What are you thinking?! You-??" She stopped when she saw that it was Hideki in the car. He was not smiling or laughing like he used to on stage. His eyes where black, emotionless, cold and just reflected the city. She could sense pain in it both emotional and physical. Hideki! Angel grabbed the pendant he gave her to her 5th birthday tight. They where silent all the way home… and barley said goodbye before they went inn to their own apartments. When Angel had come home, she just said that she wasn't hungry, before going to her room and shutting the door. Grabbing a photo of her and Hideki. And held tight the pendant he gave her. We used to be best friends!
Hideki…!
That night Angel cried herself to sleep.
At another place in same town… in a hotel…
A boy in visual kei coat, t-skirt with a mess-skirt under, black pants, and his eyes that where painted completely black, fingernails where black too. Did exactly the same thing, just that the boy didn't have a photo. He just stroke his pendant gently as he whispered into the dark night
"Who are you?"
