A Moment of Us [Final]

SCANDAL Short Stories

 

 

Haruna and Rina

 

The sun was about to set down. Haruna and Rina were having so much fun playing at the amusement park. They had already gone everywhere and had done so much. Playing together, taking lots of picture, buying things, and being sweet to each other. It will be a memory they won't forget.

 

Holding hands, Haruna turned to Rina. "Are you tired already?" She asked smiling.

 

"Hmmm... Just a little bit Haru. Why? Are you tired?" Rina asked and wiped some of Haruna's sweat with her handkerchief. They've been walking for so long. Going back and forth. Up and down. Around here and then around there. It's no wonder why Haruna was sweating buckets.

 

"Ahh no.. Hahahaha. But let's go on a slower ride for now... And the sun is about to set down. Let's find a nice spot to watch the sunset. Just two of us." Haruna said grinning at Rina.

 

"Ah... okay..." Rina responded shyly.

 

"Okay then. Let's ride that." Haruna said pointing at the ferris wheel in front of them.

 

 

 

 

The view from above is really beautiful. Rina could not stop from looking outside the ferris wheel. Haruna smiled looking at her very excited girlfriend. She couldn't help but to think how cute Rina was being. Then, suddenly, she remembered the conversation she had with Mami in the morning.

 

"Hey Rina." Haruna called.

 

"Hm? Yes Haru?" Rina turned to her and suddenly Haruna grabbed her hand and kneeled in front of her.

 

"H...H-H-Haru?"

 

"I love you. I do love you. I really, really really love you. I love you more than anything. I don't care about what people would say about us. You're amazing and I would be so proud telling the world that you're mine and I'm yours." Haruna said looking very sincere and straight into Rina's eyes.

 

"Haru... I love you too... Why are you saying this?" Rina said feeling tears building up on her eyes.

 

"Mami and I..... We had a conversation today.... Mami said that you've been feeling anxious about on how serious I am on our relationship... that you think that I don't put that much effort on our relationship... that you think that I'm scared on revealing our relationship and that I would give up at some point.... I know that you think that too. I can feel on how you look at me during rehearsals sometimes. I don't want you to think like that anymore... We're in this together and whatever happens, we will have each other backs, right?"

 

"Haru.... I'm sorry... I really am sorry for feeling like that at times... I know how you feel about me. About us.. But I couldn't help it sometimes... I was so scared that at some point in our relationship, you would say enough and leave me... or that a suitable guy would come and snatch you from me." Rina said crying.

 

"Who said I would leave you? I have such an amazing girlfriend. One that really is beautiful, not just physically, but beautiful in heart as well. You're sweet and funny. You have great taste in everything and you can actually put up with my bad side. How can I ask for anything else? I already have the perfect one right in front of me who loves me for who I am and I love her for who she is." Haruna said and wiping Rina's tears with her thumb.

 

"I didn't know all that... You never really say it to me." Rina said.

 

"Now you know. So stop worrying and let me tell the world that I love you so much and that I have an amazing girlfriend, okay?" Haruna said smiling at Rina.

 

"Okay." Rina said crying but smiling. At that moment, their ferris wheel pod stopped at the very top and from there they can see the beautiful sunset.

 

"I love you Rina." Haruna said. She kissed Rina's tears away and then kissed her lips lovingly.

 

"I love you too Haru." Rina said smiling and sneaked her arms around Haruna's neck.

 

They continued kissing under the beautiful sunset in their ferris wheel pod.

Tomomi and Mami

 

The sun was already setting down. Tomomi Ogawa sat at on a bench looking down thinking to herself. She had already calmed down after crying for some time. She thought about how she had gone too far and said those hurtful things all because she got jealous. She knew Mami was right. She had been overreacting and said those hurtful things to Mami. She felt stupid and hated herself at the moment. She wondered what she could do to fix things soon.

 

"What were you thinking Tomomi Ogawa?? Stupid! Stupid! Now she's mad at you!" Tomomi thought to herself as she pulled her hair.

 

Suddenly she heard the voices of children sounding very excited. Looking up she saw a big cute bear mascot coming her way holding balloons of many colors. The bear looked really cute with a bow tie and cute head. It was very fluffy as well. The children ran to the bear and the bear started playing with them. Giving them balloons and taking picture with them.

 

Tomomi smiled. She remembered how great Mami is with children and how she loves to play around with them. She always thought that Mami would be a wonderful parent figure to her children, their children, since they do want to have children together someday along the way.

 

One thing Tomomi really loves about Mami is her friendly manner to everyone. "Right. Mami is very friendly," she thought. Now Tomomi couldn't help but to really blame herself for the mess and felt really stupid. She smiled bitterly and looked down again wondering how she could to fix everything.

 

As she thought to herself, she later noticed a pair of bear feet standing in front of her. She looked up and saw the big bear staring right at her. The bear now held one balloon colored in red. Her favorite color. The bear extended its paw and gave the red balloon to Tomomi. Tomomi accepted the balloon and stared back into the bear's eyes. She was able to see through the bear's eyes and look directly at a pair of eyes she know very well. Gazing at those loving eyes, the feeling she had of crying again went away and she smiled instead.

 

"I know who you are, stupid..." She thought chuckling.

 

Smiling to the bear she said, "Thank you for the balloon Mr. Bear," and the bear made a gesture of 'you're welcome'.

 

"Why are you giving me this?" Tomomi asked still gazing at those loving eyes. The bear made a gesture of a "sad face" and pointed at Tomomi. Cutely tilting its head to the side.

 

"Did you mean you thought I looked sad so you gave me this balloon and now you're wondering why I'm sad?" Tomomi laughed after saying that and smiled softly at the bear who nodded at her.

 

"Well Mr. Bear, I'm having a problem right now. Would you want to accompany me for a while and listen to me?" Tomomi asked smiling at the bear. The bear nodded offering its paw to Tomomi.

 

"You want me to follow you?" Tomomi asked taking the bear's paw and the bear nodded again.

Haruna and Rina

 

"Where are we going Haru?" Rina asked confused. Haruna had put a blindfold on Rina and had been guiding her for a while now.

 

"Just a little bit more. Be patient~." Haruna teased.

 

"You better not be pranking me."

 

"Now that you mention it, maybe I will."

 

"HARU!!"

 

"Hahahaha! Just kidding! Just kidding! Oh, we are here."

 

"Quick, take the blindfold off." Rina said impatiently.

 

"Okay okay. Ready? 3.... 2.... 1.... Here you go!" Haruna said taking off the blindfold

 

Rina slowly opened her eyes saw a park full of lampions and lights. There were so many shapes and colors. The sky had already become dark, therefore, having lights all around them made the moment become very beautiful and romantic. She looked around admiring her surrounding, loving everywhere she looked.

 

"You like it?" Haruna asked smiling as she came behind her and hugged her from her back. She looked at the lights surrounding them too.

 

"Like it? I love it.. But how?" Rina asked astonished while turning to Haruna.

 

"Well, I already prepared this for us. I know someone here who was able to help me with this." Haruna said grinning.

 

Rina giggled, "You and your connections!"

 

"You're welcome. Everything is for my lady." Haruna said.

 

"Big head." Rina said smiling softly and kissed Haruna's cheek before kissing her lips.

Mami and Tomomi

 

"What should I do Mr. Bear?" Tomomi asked the bear beside her. They were in a hidden spot up on a hill inside the amusement park. There was only one bench on top of the hill that gave them a view of the amusement park. They could see many lights of the amusement park that was below and in front of them. The night making their view so beautiful from where they sat.

 

"I kind of messed up with someone I really love earlier.... I was jealous. I should have known better. I know this person and I know that this person loves me as much as I do. This person never intends to hurt me purposely. But I got jealous and mad for a stupid reason and ended up yelling and uttering such hurtful words. I acted like such a child. I'm afraid.. What if I can't fix this?" Tomomi said sadly.

 

The bear stared at her and after awhile the bear softly patted her head.

 

Tomomi turned around to face the bear and hugged the bear. Leaning her head on its fluffy chest. The bear was startled at her sudden gesture.

 

"What should I do Mr. Bearrrr??? What if this person never wants to talk to me again and leaves me?? This person is a little bit stupid after all so maybe this person will leave me without knowing my true feelings." Tomomi said and paused for awhile before speaking again. "Well, even though she's stupid, I love her too much you know. You know that too right, Mr. Bear?" She said while looking straight through the bear's eyes grinning. A short moment of staring into each other's eyes, the bear moved to take off its head revealing a sweaty Mami. Tomomi's grin become wider that very moment.

 

"You should have told me sooner that you knew who I was... You have no idea how hot and tiring it is inside this costume." Mami said rolling her eyes while tightening her arm Tomomi's waist. Tomomi chuckled and then leaned back on Mami's chest.

 

"You look so cute in a bear costume. It's actually keeping me warm now as well." Tomomi said closing her eyes.

 

"That's why I only took off the head. The wind is very strong up here."

 

"Hmm... How did you know about this place? And how did you get the costume?"

 

"Yuki helped me. It's a bit troublesome wearing this costume though. The children think that I'm "the real bear mascot" and keep jumping on me." Mami said making Tomomi chuckle some more.

 

"That's your punishment. Anyways, thanks for the effort. You're surprisingly sweet." Tomomi said burying her head deeper onto Mami's chest and enjoying the warmth of the fluffiness of the bear costume.

 

"Be thankful woman. You know how lazy I am. If I make an effort like this, then you must be very special." Mami said mumbling softly and Tomomi smiled softly while closing her eyes. Mami's hand began to softly her hair.

 

After a moment of silence, Mami said something. "Look Tomo, I'm really sorry. I know I've been hurting you a lot. I don't know what to say. I'm not good with things like this, you know me. But I promise you I will do my best to fix anything. Please talk to me if anything upsets or bugs you from now on. I'm really sorry."

 

"I'm sorry too Mami..." Tomomi said softly.

 

"Can you please look at me for a second?" Mami asked Tomomi. Tomomi sat up straight while turning to face her.

 

"I know I rarely saying this or do something special for you but... I love you Tomomi Ogawa. I really do love you with all of my heart. I never really show it... maybe... but I want you to know that I love you so much that I can't breathe without you. I can't live without you. I feel so comfortable with you that I can completely be myself. That explains my careless behaviour when I'm with you. Did you ever see me being that careless and comfortable with other people besides you??" Mami said very seriously. Staring at her girlfriend making Tomomi have tears in her eyes.

 

Tomomi said chuckling and wiping her tears away. "So stupid..." she said and pulled Mami closer to her. Kissing her lips. Mami smiled after and kissed her back. At the same time that they kissed, fireworks began to explode in the night sky, making them be kissing under the fireworks.

 

"I love you Tomomi Ogawa." Mami told Tomomi. Grinning widely after their kiss.

 

"Say that again." Tomomi said.

 

"I'll say it again next year." Mami said sticking her tongue out.

 

"Stingy." Tomomi said and leaned her head back on Mami's bear chest.

 

"At your service."

 

"Love you too, stupid."

 

And with that, they looked at the fireworks together. Feeling warm and their love for each other.

Haruna and Rina

 

Haruna and Rina sat together surrounded by many lampions and lights. Haruna hugging Rina from behind and Rina leaning her back on Haruna.

 

"Will you love me forever?" Haruna asked.

 

"What stupid question is that? Of course I will. Always." Rina said.

 

"Will you trade your fame for my love?" Haruna asked teasingly.

 

"HEY! Well of course, but we are both in the same band. If I leave then you won't have an amazing drummer, so your job will fall apart. How will you feed me then? You need to take responsibility for me Haru! So don't say stupid things and let's keep our relationship and the band together." Rina said chuckling.

 

"Hahahahaha. Sure, I'm just joking obviously. What should I do with you Rina?" Haruna shook her head laughing. She kissed Rina's head after.

 

"Love me forever!"

 

After a bit of silence, Haruna spoke. "Hey Rina.. Are you sure you want to be with me?"

 

"Of course! I love you Haru..."

 

"Okay then. Can you look here for a second?" Haruna asked and Rina turned her head to her. There Haruna Ono held a ring so beautiful in front of her.

 

"Haru..." Rina said in shock covering with her hands.

 

"Well, we can't have wedding for now, but this is like a promise ring.. Will you be beside me... forever? Because I know I will. I'm sure about it." Haruna said sincerely staring at Rina.

 

"Yes... Yes I will!" Rina said crying. Haruna smiled hugging her tightly. She then put the ring on Rina's ring finger.

 

"Now you can't run away from me." Haruna said grinning at her.

 

"I won't. Never." Rina said and kissed Haruna lovingly on the lips. At the same time, the fireworks started exploding in the night sky. They kissed under the fireworks. Their heart beating in sync. Silently vowing to be with each other forever.
