Chapter 1048 This is me Part 24

SUMIRE


"(All) We want to make it bloom! (Our dream)


We want to sound it! (Our ensemble)


Let's give off a sparkle so bright it's blinding,


Just like the light of the stars


Wow... Let's start running! Wow...


To what's beyond our dreams


Let's make new days, here we go!


Mikaze: These feelings that have turned into a song have overflowed


(Wow Wow)


Masato: To the future we're aiming for,


(We'll definitely make them reach)


Nao: If you don't believe in yourself, it won't begin


(This story)


Mikaze: The feelings we held are resounding together


(We are)."


Sumire's eyes widened. Is this really her song? It's true, that amongst the guys in nanairofeather. Her song compatibility with Mikaze-kun was the highest. But, who would have thought that he would have been able to turn that mess into this.


"They are good aren't they?" A familiar voice said from behind her.


Sumire rolled her eyes. "It takes a fist fight with Nao for you to appear before me? I have to admit senpai, your idea of romance could really use some work."


The person who just entered the room is none other than Ichinose Arashi. Nanairofeather's center.


Arashi laughed. "I suppose I deserve that."


He really does, and she has so much she wants to say. So much she has to say. But for now.


"I'm glad to see you."


Arashi nodded. "Yeah, I'm back Rei."


Even though she never loved him like he did her. Ichinose Arashi was one of the rare people she had very fond feelings for. If she didn't go out with Sano, and learned of Arashi's feelings sooner. Then she wonders what kind of future they would have had. But, that is already in the past. In the present there is only one person for her.


That person occupies such a large portion of her heart, that she can't even think of considering others.


Nao was the first one to see Arashi and walked over as he slung his arms over his shoulder. "Now you show up, we are opening for Princess and Siena's show. The least you could do was attend rehearsals."


They are opening? Then again, Hino is the one who has been working on the details of her show. Considering the two month set back, it's natural he hasn't had a chance to tell her.


"Just the four of you?" Sumire wondered.


Mikaze shakes his head and beams. "The others are on their way. They will be here for your concert. Oh don't worry! We have been practicing over video chat together, we can do it."


Sumire laughed. "I wasn't worrying, I believe in you guys."


She always has. After all, it's because of the seven of them that she got out of her slump. They are the reason why she can keep on going in this industry and why she fell in love with music more.


Besides with Arashi-senpai back, they finally have their center- Sumire paused. Actually, if it's this song. Mikaze-kun should probably be in the center, but if she suggests that now it would be really insensitive of her.


Arashi looked over at her like he understood her thoughts. "I've actually been discussing this with the guys. I was thinking of stepping down as Nanairofeathers center."


Sumire blinked, startled. "What-"


"I disappeared for an entire year, that was really irresponsible of me. Disappearing during the height of our popularity caused so many issues."


"That doesn't mean you have to-"


"During that time everyone was in a slump because of what happened to Mamoru-san, and even though he was hurting too. Mikaze was the one who pulled everyone together." Arashi trailed off and turned to the red head. "I'm just returning things to how they are supposed to be. Mikaze was the original center you had in mind for the group anyway, wasn't he?"


Indeed, he was and Arashi is right. Leaving was irresponsible of him, it's not something a center member should do. Even if he did have his reasons. He is willing to take responsibility for it. Moreover, Mikaze-kun has truly grown. 'The reason I pushed him out from the center spot was because there was a time where Mikaze was struggling. Instead of sulking, he worked on those faults. He not only worked on them but pulled everyone else along in her absence.'


Her gaze softened as she turned to Mikaze who was flustered due to all the praise. "He's right, if it's you. You can lead everyone to new heights."


Mikaze cheeks reddened as he raised his hand in the air for a peace sign. "I'll do my best!"


"He really should, because if he trips again, we will become a laughing stock." Nao commented.


Sumire sweat fell. "Uh, did that happen?"


Masato sighed. "He tripped because he was excited about being on a Tokyo music program for the first time."


Well, she does understand. She almost made a similar blunder.


"Do we have to get you two new shoes? You're both always falling over." Nao pointed out.


Sumire puffed her cheeks. "My shoes are fine!"


"Right? These are my babies." Mikaze argued.


"Yes, yes. Now Arashi is here, we can go over the other guys songs."


"You're not just opening with one song?" Sumire asked.


"Narasaki wants to make sure you get a break, so every four songs we will sing."


She supposes that makes sense. Masato suddenly pushes her towards a chair and Nao does the same with Mikaze.


"Now you're resting." Masato said.


"But-"


"So are you." Nao said firmly to Mikaze.


She and Mikaze exchanged glances. It's rare for Masato and Nao to team up together. She supposes they don't really have a choice right now.


"Are you really okay Sumire-chan?" Mikaze looked over at her with a concerned gaze.


"I'm fine. The doctor wouldn't have discharged me otherwise."


Mikaze suddenly turned quiet. "I really wanted to go get you. The three of us saw the blood on the scene, we knew you were badly injured. When the investigators all left, the three of us spent hours looking through the rubble for any hints."


She didn't hear about that. Then again, if they did that when the investigators all left, it's no wonder.
