I actually do not know why I have made my first fic to be this long.. and it's on going.. hahaha.. I guess I can't stop the ideas on my head which made me write this story long? You know as much as possible I wanted to make it very detailed in order to fully express the character's feelings. I want my readers to feel different emotions. :) I hope I can reach that goal. I'm still a noob writer so please comment some suggestions... Here's my Chapter 1! You can see updates at JPHIP AKB48 Fan fics thread.. and here's the specific address of my fan fic: http://forum.jphip.com/index.php?topic=33275.0
CONTRACT
Chapter 1
“Minami! Let’s get married!”
“Okay!”
“Really? Iyaaaay!!” The ace smiled happily like she won
jackpot on a lottery. But she can see her best friend doing something else
gives her the thought that she’s not on her right mind so she agreed with her
which make her feel a bit sad and the smile earlier just disappeared by bit.
“Are you listening to me, Minami?” pinching the cheeks of
her best friend who’s still writing something on the paper.
“Un” she nods in agreement but truthfully she did not know
what she just heard earlier.
“I will not let you go back on this! I’ll definitely
tear your body apart if you do!!” She said jokingly yet she’s giggling.
TakaMina is serious doing her special project for school, if
she did not make it on the deadline she’ll definitely fail this school year.
She’s not really airheaded but she does lots of things like athletic
competitions which make her miss classes.
“Ne! Minami! Listen to me! Will you promise me that you’ll
definitely do what you said just earlier? PLEEEAASE!” The ace hugged TakaMina’s
back while she’s writing, wiggling her cheeks to the back of her friend.
“Ah Acchan stop doing that, I’m doing something you know. If
I don’t pass this I’m definitely dead.” She said while imagining herself in
that situation. Fail expressions from her face are scattered everywhere.
“Eh! Minami! Promise me first!” Pouting while hugging her
friend tighter
TakaMina suddenly felt that tighter hug from the friend, she
then now turn around to face her. “Okay! Okay I promise Acchan!” Still not
knowing what she made as a promise, they are now looking at each other.
“Can you stop calling me Acchan! We’re not kids anymore
Minami!”
“Eh? But I’m used to it already!”
“You don’t want to call your wife that childhood nickname,
do you?” She said while raising her eyebrow
“Wife? W-what wife? Whose wife?” Fail expression marked on
her face again.
“mou~!!!! Minami!!!! You agreed with me earlier right??”
“Huh? What did I agreed on?”
As expected Atsuko was right that her friend was not on her
right mind to agree on her, yet knowing that she still pushes it. “What am I
doing, thinking that she’ll definitely take my proposal.UGH!” She thought while
tears are forming her eyes. She turned around and hugged her knees close to her
chest. TakaMina is now facing the back of Atsuko.
“Acchan!” No response to her.
“Ne, Are you mad?” Still in silence.
“I’m sorry, I was just really busy with my special project.
My parents would really kill me if they found out I failed a subject.” No
response.
Takamina felt so guilty now “Okay Acch--- ah… Atsuko, just
tell me what you just said earlier and I promise I will agree on it no matter
what!” She said not knowing what she just told her friend, she does not know
she’s going to agree on marriage with her friend.
Hearing that Atsuko smiled to herself she can feel her heart
beating so fast. She take a hold of herself and looked at Takamina
“Are you sure? No matter what it is, you’ll agree with it?”
“Yes! If that’ll make you feel better”
“You sounded like you’re just being pushed here”
“No I’m not! I’m willing to do anything to make you feel
better”
Acchan blushed like a tomato, while takamina was still
clueless seeing her friend becoming red.
“Ne Atsuko, are you alright?”
“Un”
“So what is again that I agreed on earlier?”
“I told you to marry me and you agreed on it” She said
straightforwardly, you can see sincerity and full of seriousness.
“Eh?????!!! W-w-wwwhhaaat?” Fail facial expressions raining
in the room from her.
“Ne! are you serious, Acchan?! I mean Atsuko?
Hearing TakaMina saying her nickname first and suddenly
followed by her first name make Acchan giggled. She smiled and now holding her
soft laughter.
“Minami, you’re such a good girl. Yes I want you to call me
by my first name always.”
“I’m not used to it though, so I’ll make mistake like this”
She blushed, she felt it’s embarrassing mistake.
“So you’ll call me Atsuko by now because you really agreed
to become my husband?” She giggled, smile forming her face. “So beautiful”
Minami thought to herself while witnessing that smile from her friend, then she
shook her head, “what am I thinking?” she gulped.
“Acch—atsuko! Erm, I don’t think you know what you are
talking about.”
“What do you mean? I don’t know it? It’s about marriage”
“exactly, marriage you don’t know a thing about it. It’s a
serious thing!”
“What is the thing I don’t know about it? If it’s a serious
thing, don’t you think I’m serious enough? I’m serious Minami!”
“B-but.. marriage is for both people who love each other…
and besides we’re not on the right age to do that and we are both g-girls!” She
said nervously the last line. “Yeah girls” she thought to herself.”
“I see, so you don’t love me Minami? After these 7 years
that we’ve been together?” She said while forming those sad tears again on her
eyes.
“No! It’s not like that Atsuko! I love you! but with all
this 7 years I’ve loved you as my best friend remember? And I don’t really know
what love for a couple is like, and we’re both girls.”
“Yeah right, so what if we are both girls? Can girls can’t
love each other? Are we outcasts in this society? If both boys and girls can
love each other why cant both girls or both boys do the same?!!” she said
angrily
“Calm down Atsuko. I know why you are like this”
“Yeah like you know everything about me, you don’t even know
what my true feelings are! BakaMina!!”
TakaMina sighed. Then Atsuko get herself on her feet and run
away from TakaMina’s room, silence were on the room. She now felt that her
friend really leaved her room, slowly everything came to her mind. “W-waait!
Atsuko!” She opened the door hurried on the living room and saw Atsuko’s mark
her sudden leave as the main entrance was leaved wide open.
TakaMina suddenly felt the sadness all over her body. The
atmosphere is now heavy.
FLASHBACK
Maeda Residence
“Acchan, we are really sorry for forcing you on a fixed
marriage with Matsumoto’s only son. It’s the only thing we could think of to
repay all our debts to them. We’re really sorry.” Said by Atsuko’s father sadly
as he’s holding his tears.
“It’s okay, I guess I’m born to be a payment for something I
did not do right? What can I do”
“Please my daughter, I’m begging for your forgiveness.”
“Yeah right”
“Please forgive your father about this Acchan, we’re really
sorry. If you want we’ll just stop this wedding right away” Her mom says in
guiltiness
“Yeah right mom and dad. Say that to me so I’ll be guiltier,
if you stop this wedding what will happen to you guys? Go in jail? Or those
guys will embarrass the two of you in public.” She screamed as tears falling
from her eyes.
“We’re sorry Acchan”
“It’s okay, I’m ready.” She gulped, her heart is aching too
much.
~END OF FLASHBACK~
At the Preparation of the ENGAGEMENT DAY
The family of Matsumoto and Maeda came first at the ceremony
to be fully celebrated after an hour, few guests are now coming bit by bit.
They are all in beautiful dresses and tuxedos, the venue was really luxurious
and people invited on the list are well known to the society. While everyone’s
lurking around the beautiful venue and others busy with other preparation on
the corner of the venue there was Atsuko and Matsumoto talking.
“I’m glad your parents approved my offer, Acchan” Matsumoto
smiled.
“You’re so beautiful in your white dress, soon you’ll be
mine Atsuko ..should I call you that? It’s much better”
Atsuko was really pissed off, she knows that the man was
really really happy. They’ve known each other for a long time now, the man is
really eager on her. He confessed to her but she let her down many times for
reasoning that she has someone else already.
“Did you plan this?” Atsuko asked.
“Of course not! It’s not my fault your parents are that
hungry with money.” Matsumoto smirked.
“How could you!!!” when Acchan was about to slap his face
the guy stopped her. “Ohoho not so fast Atsuko, you’ll regret this if you dare
to touch my handsome face. You know that I love you but please don’t embarrass
me in public coz I don’t know what I can do to you.” He said with serious eyes.
“Get your hands off me!!” Acchan managed to get her hand
back away from Matsumoto. She ran fast as she could and she bumped into someone
at the door.
~~BAAAM~~
Atsuko rubbed her shoulders part which hit the person in
front of her trying to fade the pain. She looked up and saw the person in front
of her. Her eyes widened as she can’t believe who’s in front of her.
"Mi-- Minami!!"
Minami is in suit of a tuxedo, seeing her in that man's
clothing made Acchan's heart beat so fast. It's trying to get off her chest
now. She can feel the temperature rising from her body.
"I'm sorry Atsuko" She said while offering her
hands to help Acchan. Acchan pats her hand on the one who offered her, she gets
back on her feet and was shocked the moment TakaMina placed a kiss on her hand.
She was blushing like a tomato.
As Matsumoto saw that scene, he made his way hurriedly on
the two. "Hey! She's my soon to be wife, how could you do that on our
celebration!" He said as he breaks the holding hands of the two.
She gives a grope on TakaMina's collar, "Get off you
midget. Who are you touching her?" He said angrily as he was about to kill
someone.
Acchan tried to stop him, but Matsumoto pushed her that made
Acchan fall on the ground. As TakaMina saw that, she can't stop her anger and
punched the guy on the face that caused him to fall on the ground as well. Even
though that TakaMina is a girl, she has this strength that can match a guy.
TakaMina rubbed her hand feeling the pain in her hand, "Ouch" she
said on her mind. Everyone witnessed that embarrassing moment for Matsumoto,
everyone's eyes are now on them. They were shocked! Shocked as Acchan who's on
the floor, her eyes widened yet still blushing like a tomato. Speechless.
"What a pain, everyone's looking at us now"
TakaMina sighed as she approached Acchan once again on the floor. Again,
offering her hand as a help to get the woman back on her feet.
"Are you okay?" she asked pulling the girl once
again.
"Un.."
"I think the guy's dead, your engagement is
finished!" she laughed and smirked.
"Minami! Why..uhm.." Atsuko as she can't find the
words to say.
As Minami was about to explain, Matsumoto get back on his
feet wiping the blood on his mouth. "How could you!!! Guard take this guy
away this party!" He commanded angrily.
"Guy? He called Minami as a guy?" Atsuko asked to
herself. "I know she's wearing tuxedo and is wearing a black wig,, but I
can still say it's Minami" She giggled to herself, "my heart is going
crazy, it's getting wild again".
As the guards were about to pick TakaMina, "Stop!"
Takamina ordered.
Everyone was in shock, Matsumoto and Maeda family were
witnessing this as well.
"I'll take my leave, after I do and say
something." She said. She hold Acchan's hand and pull her near her, and
their soft lips touched each other. Everyone jaw dropped, TakaMina was feeling
the kiss as she closed her eyes while Atsuko was shocked and her eyes are
widened. She can't believe TakaMina insisted the kiss. As the time Takamina
slowly put her right hand on the ace's waist and her left hand on the head,
Acchan slowly closed her eyes and they both kissed in passion.
"My heart is beating so fast, faster than ever before.
Minami! I love you! Please hold me like this forever! I love you" Atsuko
said in her mind, as she thought of this, tears began to fall on her eyes.
Minami felt the tears and stopped the kiss, while everyone was still in shock.
Matsumoto was jaw dropping he can't believe Atsuko was also answering the kiss,
even their parents can't believe it.
TakaMina stopped the kiss and see Acchan's eyes, "she's
crying" she thought to herself and she can feel the pain in her heart. She
then looked away and answer everyone's gazes on them. As everyone still
processing the happenings inside, the guards mind are also mesmerized by the
scene.. while everyone's drooling.. TakaMina announced something...
"I Takahashi.. M-m-.. Kai, will marry this woman!!"
She said replacing Minami into Kai so that no one will notice that she's a
girl. To make everything look flawless.
Atsuko was very shocked, her tears are still coming out from
her eyes. Not because of sadness she's feeling but by happiness. Her heart is
beating like crazy.. "Minami!!" she spoked softly that only her and
TakaMina can hear.
"I will pay all Maeda's debt to Matsumoto's family.. I
will double it if you want. I don't want to witness my love being forced in
this marriage just because of that debt. I will pay no matter how much it is!
I'll take my leave, I'll put the money on your account Mr. Maeda.. I'm sorry
for making an event today." She said as she bowed. Everyone now gazes at
the Matsumoto family, they can't believe they are forcing a girl to be part of
their family just because of debt. Everyone started to spread rumors inside the
room, the Matsumoto family were really embarrassed so they walked out after
Minami took Atsuko's hand and go away from the room. Matsumoto did not do anything,
he was unmoved and tears are falling to his face. He suddenly wiped it as he
does not want his weakness be seen by other people and just walked out with his
parents.
