Michi came out the doors and practically bumped into Narcissus. "Hey, I got the hospital faxing stuff to my mother about Chiyou-kun so she'll be helping with his therapy in my stead while I'm in Hawaii."
At the moment, the man was very much in work mode. And had a few files in his hand which he was sort of looking at on and off. "I'm hoping the surgery works. Be nice to see Chiyou-kun doing what he likes in his own style."
"Sorry it took me a bit." he finally said as he closed the file. "I didn't expect it to take me so long but I was talking shop with some of the doctors." He laughed for a moment. "A few of them know my mom but didn't realize I was her son."
But then he remembered, "Oh shoot, we still haven't packed! We best get you home. I need to go to my place for some clothes too. Good grief and when is the flight?"
He hurried with Akihiko to the car and leaped in knowing they'd probably not get much sleep before the long flight. Fortunately, Michi could sleep on planes.

If he had gotten out of bed this morning and thought he would be tending to Hiroki Asato, looking after him at the hospital, he would have laughed and wondered where such an imaginative idea had blossomed from...but now, as he sat here doing exactly that, Nezumi realized just how strange days could get sometimes. Not in a horrifically unpleasant way, at least. Just a mildly unpleasant one. It was better than sitting around doing paperwork all day...but it wasn't at all good that his boss was injured.
Once the man was awake again, and talking, the manager was on task.
"I'm glad to hear that, sir. I think Tanaka will make a fine asset to the company. I'll begin looking for a dance instructor suited to him immediately, and I think I'll pull the best vocal coach from the child star unit for a few weeks to get him settled into basics. It's best to start from scratch with a raw voice like that. Hm...I'll prep a file just for him when I get back to my office." he said as he began jotting things down on a little black notepad he carried in his pocket.
Quietly, the mouse watched and listened as the Doctor came in and spoke with the acting chairman, discussing his care. He didn't want to be intrusive, but as they wheeled him out for surgery, he gave his boss a gentle pat on the shoulder and a wan smile.
A long while later, the man was wheeled back in. Given time, Hiroki began to come around.
"You're in the hospital, Hiroki-san. Narcissus broke your nose, remember? It's all fixed now, though." he explained as he stood, taking his boss by the hand to comfort him. Such close contact...he hoped it didn't offend...but, obviously, Hiroki didn't have anyone else there to look out for him.

I can no longer return to those days free of bloodshed
These deep scars rooted within me will not disappear...
 What a way to start the day.... Rush, rush, rush... So typical, where Shou was concerned. The kisses had woken him up, and a wonderful way to wake up it was...but it still took a few moments of blinking and yawning before he managed to roll out of the bed. Padding into the bathroom, Jun hopped out of his boxers in just enough time to grab the shower controls and adjust the temperature of the water. "One of these days you're going to cook yourself doing that..." he chuckled as he hopped under the water with his lover and began to scrub himself, and Shou, clean. Sometimes, mornings were the best part of the day. Even if Shou pouted a little. Hide it, Hide it
Hide me...

Do you know what you got into

Beautiful Dreamer
The pout was large and Shou ended up arms over Jun's shoulders as he was scrubbed. "But I grabbed both knobs I just well.. mm..didn't adjust them well." Serious pout face. And Jun was right, Shou was an accident waiting to happen at times; too mercurial for his own good.
Although Shou loved the scrubbing and mewed like a happy cat as all the suds covered him. Such scrubbing ended with Shou lifting Jun's face long enough for a passionate kiss. Back to the kissing again. But this one lasted a bit longer because Shou was quite demanding in the shower at times. When he pulled away, his rosy lips were moist and parted. "Mm...can't even start a morning right without one long kiss fit in somewhere."
He snuzzled for a short time longer but then it was 'scamper scamper' as soon as he realized he had to put on his makeup within 15 minutes. "I'm glad they've food on the plane. I'm starving already!"
Zipping out of the shower, he dried and started putting on his makeup; something bright and sunny! He wanted to be a djini but that was just to elaborate so he went with a a more comfortable pair of jeans with embroidered colorful pockets, some Xylishoes, and a fitted sleeveless white t-shirt which he topped with a flower covered Hawaiian shirt. "I'm ready for the Beach!"
As he put on his makeup, he sighed just a little, "I'll need to wear waterproof makeup if I go swimming." It was the nature of his world but he'd live with it considering he was spending a week with Narcissus. As soon as the American paparazzi knew they were there, he'd be unable to take it off anyway. Fortunately, he didn't tell anyone else of his trip plans at least those that would spread the news. Only those that needed to know.
"Jun? When we return, I'd like to go out in the new car and maybe we can go out to dinner. At the Blue Elephant or something?" Shou wanted to go out with the man but a more private setting would have been far better. For some reason Shou didn't think the night went quite as he had wanted so he wished to remedy that.
It was then a knock came to the door, "The car is ready." Hamu-kun called out. "You've 7.23 minutes before we must be going."
"Oh great! I feel like I'm in a pre-performance countdown!" Shou called back only to hear Hamu huff.

What wouldn't I do for King and Country...
Yes Sir!------------------------------------------------}:-  Asato Hiroki
Chairman's Secretary - Ohayou Productions
Doing what one does best...going to the hospital for the millionth time
"Mmnnhnn...Probably so provided he can perform. So we will see how it goes. " Hiroki listened to Nezumi's plans and well at least it sounded like he was really interested in Tanaka Michi. But then again, hadn't he been interested in Chiyou at first too? "He'll need a good stage name...although I'm not sure Michi...or Taka sound right for him. Maybe once he get started and we know his sound we can come up with something that fits. But he'll definitely need a new name for the stage."
Although his words had been cut off as the surgery came and went. It took him some time before his mind focused clearly again. He never was that good with anesthesia. "Oh..." he said rather out of it for a bit then nodded slowly, "That's right, he broke my nose." And Nezumi did have it right, Hiroki didn't have many outside friends from the company and he really didn't want tell his family. "I'm suppose to stay here for a few hours then I should be able to go home. I've so much work to do. So what type of singer do you think Tanaka-kun is?" The last question was out of the blue but when Hiroki thought of all his work, it just popped out.
He doubted he'd get much work done because he was still a bit woozy from surgery. Recovery from that would take awhile, it always did for Hiroki and that's why he hated being in the hospitals having anything done. He was always afraid one day he might not wake up after they put him under. But he didn't want to tell anyone that. It revealed a weakness he couldn't afford to share.

"It's ok. You haven't turned into a boiled duck, so we're good." the taller man laughed as he washed. Being so amused so early in the day was just one of the perks of being in love with Shou. It never failed, things were always like a little circus these days. When the kiss came, it was no surprise. These sweet, passionate kisses were par for the course, and he was happy to return them. Matter of fact, he'd be quite the mess if he didn't have them. Goosebumps popped up on his flesh and he shivered despite the warm water as he thought of life...with the absence of his lover. Just then, Shou released him from the snuggle and hopped out of the shower, rushing to finish dressing for the day. Turning, Hayato turned off the water and smiled to himself. This trip was going to be fun. Towel around his waist, Jun padded through the bathroom and went for his clothes. Something he had never worn in front of the blond before. A pair of black knee length board shorts and a long sleeve white lycra sports shirt. He looked like some sort of sexy surfer boy now. "I'm ready, love. Hurry that cute little a** up." Hide it, Hide it
Hide me...

Frowning, the manager was silent for a long moment.
"Hiroki-san...please forgive me for saying, but you should relax a bit. Not worry so much right this moment about work and worry about yourself for a while."
Biting his lip, he looked at the man as if he expected to be reprimanded. He knew it was none of his business...but he just couldn't sit there and watch this poor man work himself into oblivion, especially when he so obviously needed to focus on himself.
"If you must know...I think Tanaka will be a more soulful singer, probably something in the mix between pop and rock. Akin to Narcissus, but...potentially equal or better, given enough effort." he said quietly as he turned his face from his boss, feeling oddly nervous now, nose twitching cutely.

Shou finally finished clipping in colorful extension in green, blue and orange. Perfect for a trip to Hawaii. Well at least in his own mind. He finished everything off though with a heavy furred collared, long coat because they were still in Japan and it was very cold.
Although when he turned around and looked at Jun, his jaw dropped for a moment. "Wow. You look....hot. I'm going to have a hard time keeping my eyes off of you. And so is everyone else." Yes, that would be fun to watch all the girls in Hawaii swooning over Jun. Or maybe they would be doing that to Narcissus. Well Shou, when he wanted to could look just as sexy but actually today he went for....casual colorful comfort. Bright and cheery! Either way, it was another wild fashion statement.
He grabbed his few things from the apartment then opened the door for Hamu who looked him over and said. "You're almost as bright as anime today. I need my sunglasses, Shou-sama."
"I'm taking on a fun look for the flight. I know you've packed more appropriate things for interviews but I want to relax." Shou answered as he fingered all the colorful hair.
"Alright but mmm....goodness get in the limo or will be late. Ah, I see you decide to bring Hayato-san with you. You are lucky I'm used to your last minute changes. The tickets are in the limo." Hamu rolled his eye and Shou just smiled. He knew Hamu was far better at the details so he never sweat the little things...such as tickets on an important flight out of the country. Little? Maybe not. But this was the strange working relationship between Star and Assistant.
Shou scooted into the limo as he watched Jun get the house closed up for the trip. "Hurry! Hurry! Oh I'm so glad we don't have pets this would have been much more difficult."
"You better not think of getting a pet either." answered Hamu as he got into the Limo. "I won't babysit."
"Shou frowned and teased, "Well a pet would be the only kid I'd have."
It was then Hamu bobbed Shou on the nose with near by papers, "No!" he said firmly then leaned back as Shou pouted.

Hiroki sighed and he didn't reprimand the manager for those words because they were probably true. He could use a day off and couldn't remember the last one he took. Inside a small bit of angst swelled for a moment, Narcissus was going on vacation for a week. Lucky b*****d. Not that Izzy Lucky didn't need the vacation....but...still. The only think that salvaged the notion was maybe Narcissus could convince Shou to change studios.
But then again, Narcissus hardly remembered things so the chances of that were slim. Hiroki almost considered it a lost cause especially after this latest injury. At least, he gave Akihiko two good punches to the stomach. Even so, it had been stupid. Why was he stooping down to Akihiko's level? He didn't have a good answer and he was too tired to soul search for one.
"Alright, a half day of rest. Thats all I can really afford right now until everything works itself out." he answered then closed his eyes to listen to Nezumi's words. "Soulful? Better than Narcissus? Ah..if you could do that..." he mumbled and let his eyes close to just envision a singer superior to Narcissus. That would be a feat indeed.
"It would take a lot of effort to manage that, Nezumi-san." Although he was curious to see if that were possible. He wished he could see the talent the way managers and stars could but he hadn't followed that trek up the chain of Ohayou so he had to rely on others to know the talent even if right now, sometimes he approved things without much help. He had to learn somehow. But he did take advice on all the hopefuls. It just wouldn't be prudent to waste money on a bad selection.
His eyes flicked open as he watched Nezumi turn his head. Rather cute nose twitch but it made his own nose hurt to think of anything twitching at the moment. Smiling for a second before the pain of stretched skin hurt, "So how did you happen to figure out he was musically inclined?"

"Hot? You look absolutely edible. Like a cupcake." Jun replied, pulling his hair back into a loose ponytail, his standard casual look. Grabbing a leather jacket, Hayato slid it on and picked up his bags, loading them into the back of the car before walking around and sliding in beside Shou, listening to the conversation already going on. "If he wants a pet, he gets a pet, Yamada-san. I'll be responsible for it." he smirked, defying Hamu completely. Looking over at the assistant, he couldn't help but feel a sort of camaraderie with the man. He was the only person who knew Shou's..."secret". Well, other than Naoko, now. Naoko wouldn't say anything, though. He was Sai's brother. Of course he would want to protect him. And, if not, well...he could only hope Izo would go easy on the poor doll. Hide it, Hide it

"A half day is better than no rest at all." Nezumi replied with a smile, actually kind of happy that he had somehow convinced his boss to rest for a while.
It was a small achievement, but it still pleased him.
"Ah, but Hiroki-san, you'd be amazed what's possible when the raw talent is there. It just has to be shaped, like cutting away at a large block of cheese to make a beautiful, delicious design!"
Ok....an odd analogy, but the manager had seen a cheese carving before, and it had stuck in his mind. Such a lovely, tasty treat! He had a soft spot for cheese anyway...so it worked for him.
Still, comparing Tanaka to cheese and something delicious...it was almost Freudian.
"Hm? Oh...it was at the Charity Event. I was walking backstage and I heard him humming and singing. I asked him to sing for me because I knew right away his voice certainly had what it took to reach superstar status. My ears picked it up right away." Nezumi nodded, scooting his chair closer to Hiroki's bed as they spoke.

Shou giggled for a moment about the cupcake comment knowing that it was true! But in the car after Hamu's abrupt paper swat, the laughter continued. "Oh my, Yamada-san, would I do that to you?"
"Oh yes you would you troublesome man!" Hamu scolded and then listened as Hayato added his piece. "Not you too. Oh yes, you'd be responsible and some because Shou can hardly take care of himself unless he's concentrating on it." Yes, the Hamu stated a well known truth!
"But..but!" Shou pouted for a moment.
"No buts! Hayato-san should not be stuck with your pet's litter box. And you shouldn't encourage him." scolded Hamu but this time at Hayato. "Trouble...good grief."
Shou turned his head and covered his mouth trying not to burst into laughter. "I bet me being in Hawaii will be like a vacation to you...Ha...I mean Yamada-san."
"I wish. You and Narcissus going to do work from over there has left me with conference scheduling but I'll be coordinating with Izzy Lucky's assistant so we should be able to keep things running smoothly." Hamu answered as the car sped on the highway towards Ohayou to pick up the rest of the vacationers.

What wouldn't I do for King and Country...
Yes Sir!------------------------------------------------}:- Asato Hiroki
Chairman's Secretary - Ohayou Productions
Doing what one does best...thinking of ways to strangle Narcissus
"It will have to do." Hiroki sighed then tilted his head because he felt his nose draining. Ewh. That didn't feel good. Narcissus!!! He wanted to scream and punch one more time. Although Nezumi's presence kept him from grousing and making his situation worse.
"Cheese?" Hiroki tilted his head and had to wonder where that correlation came from but it sort of worked. He never had seen cheese big enough in Japan to be carved in such a way. But maybe this was something Nezumi saw in Europe? "Ok...I have to ask, where did you see Cheese Carvings?"
Nezumi was an odd man...in his mousy grey dark suit talking about cheese with a twitching nose. Hiroki wondered if....the man was a mouse. Well not an animal but he had an odd...well it just seemed strange.
"So he was singing at the charity event. That's a lucky find, Nezumi-san. "
Hiroki reached over and grabbed the remote to flick on the Entertainment channel thinking at least some news might sooth him. However, he was greeted with Narcissus rocking with Yammi on the screen. He didn't really want to watch that and made to click the channel when Narcissus started talking....and introducing...Michi! As an Upcoming at Ohayou!!?????
Hiroki just wanted to reach through the glass and strangle the star. His forehead wrinkled in his internal frustration that caused his nose to hurt. Just after Narcissus' words, Michi started singing the song on the demo. "Well, I guess he's hired." muttered the man as the announcer started speculating things about Tanaka Michi and his future at Ohayou as the next up and coming. "I think you've your work cut out for you Nezumi-san."

Strangely, Akihiko was rather quiet as Michi told him about what he'd been doing. He listened, of course, but didn't comment.
Even once outside and in the car, the musician lighting a cigarette and taking a few long drags of it... he didn't say a word.
Eventually though, Michi asked a question. "Eight in the morning. We're supposed to meet at Ohayou... Shou-san's sending someone to pick us all up."
Akihiko sighed, "Michi-kun... you're going to go back to your place to pack, ne? Would... would you mind checking on my latest bruises before you head home?"
In other words... Narcissus didn't really want Tanaka to stay the night.
Or did he?

"God, so early." Michi said as he rubbed his eyes the yawned. "Shou didn't think about the speed or maybe he knew if we did this fast, we'd not get caught by the reporters."
"Well, I should I don't know if I've got any good clothes to go to Hawaii in but, I need to take at least something clean." He smiled then set the files aside. "Sure, I'll look at them. Mm...we can either stop at my place and pick up my things and then I can come to yours and look at the bruises. Or...we can do the opposite. I can go to your place then head home afterwards and meet you in the morning. Which do you prefer?"
