Eternal Melody



AKANE

"It's my sister. She'll be in the company today." Akane explained.

His expression relaxed, confirming her theory. So it would bother him? Then again, even though Mashima is sleeping with her. It doesn't change the fact that he is the loyal type. So, if she didn't accept his advances. He probably would have continued to see Erika until Ibuki returned. Because she accepted, his focus seems to be on her.

Akane found herself staring at him as she drank the tea. Toh takes a seat in front of her. Unlike earlier he wasn't completely naked, only his torso. He now wore a pair of leather pants. 

"What is it?" Toh said with a gentle smile. "Are you hungry? I made us breakfast."

She slowly nodded her head and Toh picks up a mini table from the corner of the bed. He suddenly started to place some dishes from the bed side table on top.

How long did she sleep for him to make this much food?

This is so weird. She has never spent the morning with a guy after sex. There is a reason why she has one night stands. No strings attached. The first one who wakes up leaves, and if they wake up at the same time. They casually part ways.

Toh extended his hand out and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. "I hope your not weirded out by my behaviour."

"Well, I am a bit surprised. But, everyone knows your the loyal type."

"I maybe using you to bother your brother Akane. But, I will still respect you. I want you to know that you have a choice in this."

He really is a weird one. She can't detect any lies in those words.

"I already said it the other day. But, it felt good. Last night and what happened earlier too, felt great for me. I don't have a boyfriend right now, so it's alright."

Toh chuckled. "I see. Well," He caressed her cheek. "I suppose we can work out a schedule. You're very busy after all."

"Since I have to report to you when I return from F region. I may as well stay over."

Another sensual sounding chuckle escaped Mashima's lips and her heart felt like it was going crazy. Why does he look so sexy? She really is going crazy. He leaned forward and kissed her again.

"How much time do you have left?"

Akane briefly glanced at the clock in the corner. "An hour?"

He grinned. "Plenty of time."

At D Entertainment.

When she saw her sister she was already surrounded by people in the company. Beautiful, popular, and graceful. Nagawa Kanade is the complete opposite of her who has slightly above average looks, okay popularity and graceful? She may have grace but it fades in the face of true grace. 

Kanade turned to her happily as she dismissed the crowd.

"I'm so looking forward to this. You know, I was really upset when mom suddenly shipped me abroad."

Akane sighed. "You were sick, it's only normal that she sent you abroad to recover."

"It was so boring there. Did you know Akane? There are places that have no internet, and places that have endless mountains."

That sounds like a beautiful place. Actually that reminds her of F region. Although she suspects there is internet connection there, but Lucifer is being selective on who uses it. 

"Oh look, there's Mashima Toh"

Akane followed her sister's gaze. There she found Toh with a crowd of people around him.

All she could think of was last night and this morning.

'God's, what have I done? Why did I sleep with him?"

Yesterday she saw that thing with Erika and him, saw the sadness in his eyes and sensed his pain like it was her own. Even though she saw the intention in his eyes. 

Speaking of Erika, Akane watched as the girl walked over towards Toh and flung her arms around his neck. She was about to kiss him but Toh pried her hands away causing Erika to land on the ground confused.

Erika's so called friends sniggered and other artists who disliked her started whispering.

"Did you see that? How shameless."

"Does she think just because she is pretty, Toh-sama would pay attention to her?"

Akane had to look away. This situation was partly her fault after all. 

Kanade however kept staring at Toh. But that stare was dangerous. Dangerous because she recognized it. Kanade isn't looking at Toh just because of the drama happening. No, those sparkly eyes. 

"Akane. I never realized Mashima Toh was that handsome."

Akane blinked. "I mean, haven't you seen his photos before?"

"I have but there are seldom many pictures of him. He isn't an entertainer after all. There are a few pictures of him with his grandmother Mashima Mizusa, but he is actually quite a private person." Kanade looked at him. "I have decided, he will be my boyfriend."

"Uh I hate to break it to you, but Mashima likes Ibuki. Everyone knows this."

"Oh please. Ibuki is missing isn't she? Ibuki also has Terashima. Even if Toh likes her, it's not like they will get together."

Kanade is really behind on the news. She doesn't know that Mashima dated Ibuki before. Should she say something? Akane stared at her sister and knew it would be futile. Ever since they were a child Kanade has always gotten what she wanted. Nobody can stop her when she decides when she wants something. 

If it was any other guy, she would have to worry about them falling for Kanade's trap. However, Mashima isn't stupid.

Her thoughts break off hearing the sound of her phone.

From: Toh

If you keep staring at me, well I will have interesting thoughts.

Akane blinked and her lips curved to a smile.

From: Akane

I welcome those interesting thoughts, show me when your free.

From: Toh

Show you how?

From: Akane

With your hands? With your mouth? Surely, I do not have to spell this out to you. 

Akane glanced at his expression then to see Toh smirking in her direction. She immediately looks away and puts her phone back in her pocket. 'This is crazy, what am I doing?'
