Haruka didn"t reply, it"s not that he couldn"t. But because he saw the way Sophia looked at him. She looked at him with those same eyes, that would harm him. Lila must have seen Tachibana, since she rushed"Ameno-senpai!"
"h.e.l.lo there Little Lila."
"Present," Lila pouted.
Ameno laughed as he pa.s.sed her a bag. "Here you go."
"Wahh macroons," Lila beamed happily, "Thank you."
"Little Lila," Ameno said seriously, "Agehchan said she would sing again, if you sing with the G.o.dDESS4 once again."
"Acchan said that?"
"Not a bad deal, huh?"
"Aaahhh, geez all of you," Lila exclaimed, "Fine! So be it! I"ll perform with everybody else again."
That"s it? Haruka raised his eyebrow, before when he asked her she refused as much as possible. She even looked sad about it.
.....
"So? You"ll perform with everybody again?" Haruka repeated her words. The other two had long left, and the staff too had gone. It was just a quick practice run and Lila performed very well.
Lila was sobbing in his arms, "Wahh, what do I do? I can"t learn a new song so quickly."
"And lyricis? The score is empty."
"Gahhh."
Haruka sighed, geez how helpless. Haruka thought that there was no longer any need for him to worry when it comes to her music career. But, it appears as though that"s not the case here.
"Try writing some lyrics now."
Lila nodded and for the next few minutes, Lila kept pa.s.sing him some lyrics to read. But Haruka continued to reject them one by one.
"None of them are any good," even he was getting irritated by this.
"Wahh, what am I supposed to work on?"
He took one last sideway glance at the reject pile, "Everything."
"It"s really hard to write lyrics in j.a.panese after so long..."
Well, he does understand where she is coming from there.
"Don"t lose confidence, good music doesn"t wrote itself - nor can you just write it like that," Haruka paused. Though normally she can, so he is a bit puzzled about her current state. "Besides, the ones who decide the outcome are the audience. Whether or not you can move the audience with your music.."
"I know that...but.. Wahhhh, I can"t do it."
Really this girl, Haruka brushed his fingers across her lips, "Let"s do this. I won"t do it completely with you until you write something."
"That"s torture."
His lips curve to a smile, "Then maybe we shouldn"t do it for awhile."
"That"s a good thing for me!"
But even as she said this, Haruka saw her turn back to the music sheets with a concentrated expression on her face. Haruka pulled the girl onto his lap and hugged her.
"Haruka?"
"Keep writing."
Lila"s gaze softened, "Okay."
.....
Still Haruka wondered what he could do to help her. Sophia isn"t a easy opponent. That girl would use whatever means to win, and if Lila screws up performing with the G.o.dDESS4, things will be bad for her during the arena face down .
That"s the G.o.d5 isn"t it? Haruka stood outside the door and listened.
"He"s good as usual," Haruka observed. Even back then in Ireland, Austin Kiryu has always been good. His voice is stable and his technique is great.
Haruka planned to leave quickly, but unfortunately Austin Kiryu saw him.
"Need something?"
"About...Lila."
"Yeah, I heard she agreed. Good job persuading her."
He didn"t even do anything though.
Haruka wanted to ask him. If it"s Austin Kiryu, he ought to have a better understanding of Lila than anybody else. When Lila gets into a slump like this, what"s the cause and how does he fix it? Though Lila said those words the other day, Haruka knew her.
"Normally Lila wouldn"t have problems learning new dongs. When there is an issue, what am I ..."
Kiryu nodded, "I see," he trailed off, " That girl"s singing stats usually depends on her emotions. If she is thinking about something deeply, so if she is worried about anything
Haruka recalled what Lila said about Sophia being his mistress, and her negative reaction towards Aizawa Mei. Is it because of those two that Lila has been like this lately? If so then it is his fault. Haruka did not want to admit it, but he knew he could no longer deny it. If he keeps this up any longer, then Lila will surely leave him.
"You don"t have to worry too much though. If something really bothers Lila, she will deal with it herself."
Haruka recalled how she reacted not too long ago towards Mei and paused, "She seems to think I"m cheating on her."
"Are you?"
"Of course not." Haruka shook his head. Why would he cheat on her? Things aren"t the same as they were two years ago. He can tell Lila isn"t just fooling around with him, she genuinely loves him.
Before Haruka could hear Austin Kiryu"s response, a cute bundle landed in his arms.
"Haruka!"
This cheerful voice belonged to his Lila.
"What are you doing here?"
"I was looking for you, you forget your lunch."
She came all this way for that? That seems unusual, he looked over at Austin Kiryu and sighed, "For him?"
"D--dont get me wrong! I just wanted to see them practice."
Well, he supposed there is nothing wrong with that. Haruka nodded. "I"m watching too, let"s just watch together."
"Okay!!"
"Shougo get of the couch, let Lila sit there."
"Ouch, ouch... I was already leaving."
Haruka felt Lila grab hold of his arm, and his unease dispelled immediately. There is nothing to worry about is there? Then again, he looked over at Austin Kiryu, why does this guy keep giving him advice?
..
When the guys in the G.o.d5 decide to go on break, Haruka remained in the room with his wife. For the last few minutes she kept leaning into him, and touching him. However Haruka pulled away.
"Wahhh! You were serious?" Lila looked very disappointed.
"Write your lyrics first, we won"t do anything till then."
"How mean, I only want a kiss."
"Just a kiss?"
"I want to make out."
What a silly girl, only a day has pa.s.sed since he last touched her. Haruka looked around, the guys in the G.o.d5 were not in sight. Haruka wrapped his arms around Lila and drew her closer to him. In seconds his lips are on hers and she is laying down on the couch. When her moans stopped, he frowned and looked at her expression.
Is she not into it now? "Should I stop?"
"No, I just feel a bit weird. But I"ll be okay continue Haruka."
"Don"t force yourself."
"I"m not forcing," Lila mumbled. "I want to satisfy your hormones, so you don"t go to another girl."
It was quiet, but Haruka heard her loud and clear. What an idiot, what other girl? Haruka bit her leg, and Lila let"s out a soft moan. "Unngh..."
Other girls? He doesn"t need them anymore, he already has her. "Hah..."
"Haruka, unngh..."
Haruka was cautious, he knew somebody could enter the room right now. So he didn"t dare try to enter her or have full blown s.e.x, instead he was just giving her a bit of pleasure. This seemed to please Lila since her face relaxed.
Still, "Your too tense."
"I--I"m fine, ahh....."
Haruka brought his lips to her neck, and started to suck and lick there.
"Nnng ..."
"Lila," he said slowly, "Relax..."
"Haruka, I love you."
"Do you want me to..."
Lila bit her lip but nodded, "It"s okay for a bit, please have me."
Gosh that face, that face is --- Haruka"s sentence fell short when he hears a coughing sound from behind them.
"Wahh..."
Spotting green hair, Haruka sighed in relief. Good it wasn"t Austin Kiryu.
"Um Wataru, please don"t tell anybody."
"I don"t have to, why don"t you think Kiryu made everybody leave the room? He wanted to give you two some privacy."
As considerate as ever, huh? But that"s what has always annoyed Haruka about Austin Kiryu. Is he truly okay with this situation? Surely not.
....
No sooner had Austin Kiryu and the others returned did somebody else show up at the door.
"Yori?"
"Chiwa.s.su! I bought some freshments."
"Thank you!"
Lila immediately disclosed her problem with everyone.
"Ehh? Your having problems writing?"
Lila sighed, "I don"t really understand what the problem is."
"Aren"t things okay with you and the others now?" Yori asked.
"They are but..."
They are huh? Haruka wondered whether that was the case or not. She only talked things through with Iwa Kasumi. Kusaji Rinna has always remained neutral, but even Haruka understood that she had some concerns.
"How about your song?" he turned to Kigami Yori, "Did you two.."
"Yup! We"ve done it."
"Of course, Lila wrote the lyrics right away. It was scary."
"Che, says the one who made the dance."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
It"s easier to sing with Kogami for her? Haruka turned to Austin Kiryu, "Let them try it?"
"Yeah," Kiryu nodded and the others followed along.
"Haruka, are you going to kiss me before I sing?"
"Huh?" Haruka snapped out of his daze.
"I think it"s okay, since n.o.body is really watching."
d.a.m.n, he really has underestimated this girl. Does she really want one? But Austin Kiryu is in the room. Why is he more cautious about it than her? Haruka stood up and bent down to kiss her pretty lips. Soft and beautiful laughter escaped her lips.
"Okay, time to sing."
She"s so beautiful, so mesmerizing. This girl is..
Wait, this song? Haruka didn"t think she would be stupid. But the song Lila sang was the half complete version of Cinderella flower. Haruka was dumbfounded the entire time, so when she rushed over and asked him for his opinion afterward. He scolded her.
"Haruka, did you like it?"
"Are you stupid or something?" Haruka mumbled. She must be an idiot.
"Wahhh," Lila wailed, "Why are you scolding me? But I kind of like it."
Such an idiot. Why did she sing for him in front of all her friends for?
"I like it, don"t cry."
"Really?"
"Yeah," Haruka felt the others gaze on his and grabbed hold of her hand, "Come with me for a second."
...
Haruka pinched her cheeks, "You are such an idiot."
"Wahhh, your bullying me."
Geez, why is this girl so careless? She sang for him in front of Austin Kiryu, in front of all her friends. Won"t they get angry at her? Isn"t it already awkward for her? Why would she do something like this?
"I love you."
"Wah, are you praising me? Not bullying?"
"Lila," he brushed his fingers across her hair, "I love you so much."
"En, me too! I love you."
But, the two of them probably can"t be together forever, "I"ll help you with the lyrics," Haruka murmured.
"Really?"
"Yeah, let"s go back home."
