I have to start again with apologies.Had a hectic period.I have like 2 or 3 chapters ready,but i still have to check and correct them.Here is one,sorry it's so short.Well,actually,the 2-3 chapters were initially one hell of a humongous chapter :)) So i had to do my best and split it in more parts.Also,i have to say 2 things:
#1 - All the talking going on is in japanese.
#2 - Because of that,there is a HUGE gap at some point.If you noticed it,i'm sorry,can't make it right now,it's too late.If you didn't noticed it,YAY for me huh? :P

In addition to this chapter and to my apologies,i made this chapter's song a "lyrics on screen" video instead of a simple one ^_^ With english translation as well.It's not very good,it's my first video made in WMM,but...enjoy.Both Arashi's "Wanna be"(WhyTheF is that song called like that i will never understand)and this chapter.

Yoroshiku onegaishimasu m(_ _)m

From the series "It takes forever to find a serious-looking group pic of Arashi" and the sequel "How liquid can your brain become while doing that",i give you this chapter's pic ;)

          After fifteen very long minutes,Johnny's assistant entered the office to announce that Arashi was there.From that moment i was brain dead.Everything faded and the next thing i remember is Nino's voice.
          "Anna chan!!!And i,who thought that we won't see eachother today!" he blurted at me happy.

          I blinked a few times and i gaved Nino a confused look.

          "Ninomiya san,i'm sorry.I'm glad to see you" i said to him and bowed.

          Nino did a short sign in Johnny's direction.

          "Please Johnny san,let me do the introductions"

          Johnny nodded at Nino in approval and mumbled what i think it was a "douzo",then he leaned against his desk,crossed his arms and watched us with an amused look.

          "Anna chan-Nino started-let me introduce you to the rest of Arashi members."

         He then turned to Ohno "This is Ohno Satoshi,Arashi's leader,also known as Riida"

          "Yoroshiku onegaishimasu" Ohno mumbled bowing.He seemed shy and,no matter how hard i tried,i couldn't catch his eyes.

          "Next,Sakurai Sho san" Nino continued,pointing at Sho.

          "Hajimemae,Sakurai desu,yoroshiku onegaishimasu" he said with a deep bow.

          "And here we have Matsumoto Jun san,Matsujun-i heard Nino's proud voice-wich,i might add,is more of a leader than Oh chan there" he said giggling.

          "OI!!!" Ohno woke up suddenly and faked a mad reaction.He scolded Nino,but he was smiling.

          "Urusai!"Jun slapped Nino's head. "Please don't listen to this brat,he's just acting childish.Yoroshiku na" he winked at me without a trace of a bow.

          "And this is our dear Aiba Masaki chan,who said that..."Nino was brutally interrupted by an over reacting Aiba,who jumped towards me,tooked my right hand in his both hands and shook it fermly.

          "I'm your biggest fan!Aiba desu.Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.I'm so happy to be able to meet you in person!I was so excited when i heard from Nino that you're coming here!"

          "Mou~~,yamero yo Aiba chan,you're scaring her,BAKA!" said Matsujun while he was dragging Aiba back in line by his coller.He seemed embarassed by his band mate's sudden burst of joy.

          "Ah,ki ni shinaide,don't worry!" i said,but i couldn't help still looking at Aiba with a raised eyebrow.I thought that the rumours about his giddy and super excited personality were just that : rumours.Well....i thought wrong!

          I bowed to them and introduced myself as well.

          "Well!Now that we are over the introductions-Johnny said moving between me and Arashi-let's talk business,shall we?"

          And there it was,suddenly,the nice old man was once again replaced by this bossy,cold Kitagawa sama.He pointed to the long meeting table in the office and we all did what he said,without a word.

          "So,Arashi.You all know why is Anna chan here."Johnny said,and the boys nodded in agreement. "Good.Well then,you can also guess why i called you.I asked her to choose a group for a featuring.And you,Arashi,is the group she chose.I couldn't agree more" e completed looking at me with a very serious face.

          Oh,so he's leaving this one on me?MY decision?Only mine?I lifted my head to watch the guys reactions.They looked a little bit shocked,as expected.Well,all except Aiba who was grinning smiling at me.

          "Wait,Johnny san,this sounds like we don't have a word to say in this" Matsujun finally said.He was changed too.He wasn't smiling anymore and he was as serious as Johnny.

          "Well...yeah,you're right-Johnny replied coldly-but,to be honest,i didn't thought you will disagree with this decision"

          "And we don't!We don't!This is great!" i heard Aiba excited voice.

          "Good,then it's settled,you will do this featuring with Arashi,Anna chan-Johnny concluded looking at me-and it's up to you how you'll approach this."

          We were all watching and listening to Johnny a little confused."This was very fast!" i thought.

          "I'll leave it to you from now on.Arashi,Anna chan,yoroshiku ne!" he said getting up.

          We all greeted Johnny and left his office.We took the same elevator,but not a single word was spoken.

          In the main lobby of the building was a small coffee shop,so me and Mike decided to have a coffee there and talk things out before heading back to the hotel.
But suddenly,Matsujun stoped Mike.

          "Have you thought about talking to us first?" He sounded mad and Mike was taken aback a little,not knowing what to say.

          "Look,you may not know Johnny san,but i'm sure you heard things about him.Didn't you thought about the fact that,once Johnny san takes a decision,we won't have anyother choice,but to do as he sais?We are in a very busy period,this featuring is the last thing we needed right now!"

          He was getting more and more nervous.The almost yelling tone pissed me off.

          "Oi,ochitsuite yo!!!Calm down!" i said,shoving Matsujun's hand of Mike's arm. "What's this all about?Mike doesn't have anything to do with this!It was my decision and mine only!Or did you thought that i'm letting others to make decisions for me?Johnny san even said it was my call,why are you picking on Mike?If you disagree with all this,you should be brave enough to tell ME!"

          I ended up yelling at him,while the rest of Arashi were trying to in.Mike on the other hand was face-palming,knowing that it would take a long time for him to calm me down after this.

         Matsujun was looking at me surprised and somehow offended,but just when he opened his mouth to retaliate,Nino and Ohno pulled him away and left the lobby.Only Nino looked back and smiled at me.He nodded at me like "Don't worry,he'll get over it"

         And that was exactly what Sho said after they left.

         "Mike san,sumimasen,i apologize for my friend there-he said to Mike then turned to me-Anna chan,he's not exactly against this.It's just the situation itself,that took him by surprise.He doesn't like sudden changes to our schedules.That's why he picked on Mike san and not you.Trust me when i say that,if he would've disagreed,he would've said something to Johnny san"

          "Un,ok,i got it.I hope you're right-i said kind of absent minded,still gazing in the direction where Matsujun went-but what about you two?" I asked Aiba and Sho."I know what Ninomiya san thinks,i can guess Ohno san's thoughts,but what do you guys think?"

          "We're more than happy to work with you!"Aiba spoke up louder than he had to.

          "EH?Aiba san,please don't speak in my behalf-Sho said slaping Aiba's back head-Anna chan,i want to do this as well,i think it's something new and its gonna be a good change for us.But just like Matsumoto san,i don't like my schedule to be messed up.I don't actually have free time...unlike others-he said looking at Aiba who laughed nervously and scratched his head-,and it's gonna be hectic to fit in this project."

          "Well,i really am sorry for the trouble.But i admire Arashi and i don't want to work with anyone else." I stated with confidence.

          "And even if you don't like it, IT UP!!!I'm having my way,no matter what!" i thought to myself.

          "Ah.....arigatou-Sho was pleasently surprised-Well,we're looking forward to work with you,Anna chan.We'll set up a meeting soon,alright?Ja ne" he smiled and turned away,dragging Aiba with him.

          "Ano~~,Sho chan,wait a second!"Aiba suddenly stoped him.

          "I was thinking Anna chan.We're all going for a drink tonight.Would you like to join us?"he asked me with a hopeful look in his eyes.

          I thought for a second.The dream wasn't haunting me anymore.I mean,except from Ohno who pretty much ignored me all the time and Matsujun who had a y moment,they were nice.More than that,Aiba's puppy eyes melted my heart in an instant.

          "Of course-i replied giggling-this way i will also have the chance to talk to Matsumoto san.Maybe he'll calm down until tonight"

         Sho looked at me with a "i don't think so" look.Yeah....i chose to ignore that,i really wanted to go out,have some fun and get to know the boys.I mean,we're gonna work together and me and Matsujun will eventually have to face eachother sooner or later.

         I flashed a smile at Aiba and Sho then me and Mike finally headed to the cafe for that coffee.
