Chapter 1112 Tokyo Illusion Part 50

YUHI

Two weeks, just two weeks left before they have to go back to the US. When Yuhi heard about the limited time frame, he really wanted to protest again. But, he didn't want to stress Sumire out again. Even though he agreed on the first day, he was still very reluctant to accept it. Sumire noticed that, and has been talking to him every single night. When he heard her say that maybe it would be good for them to live apart for a while, he panicked. This led to a very heavy make out session, but his mind kept playing tricks on him.

'I love you Yi, you have no idea how much. But, I want to do what's best for you. We managed before didn't we? Even though it was difficult, we managed and built a life for ourselves. We paved our own path to our future, we worked hard so when we met again, we could stand by each other side as equals.'

Indeed, he has been apart from Sumire longer before. Even though it hurt a lot, he understood that they couldn't be together then. But the situation has changed now, they have been dating for over a year and even have children. Sumire already accepted his proposal too. 

'I don't want to go.'

Yuhi's gaze fell on the girl who was making breakfast, she had Satomi on her back while Kyoko was obediently drinking her milk in her chair.

Seeing droplets of sweat on Sumire's face, Yuhi walked over and took Satomi off her.

"Alright that's enough, stop bothering your mother."

Satomi frowned. "-want mama."

"Now listen here kid, you're way too attached to your mother. Give your poor father some love too."

Actually he predicted that the kids would end up more attached to Sumire. After all, he wasn't there for them when they were born. Yuhi noticed however that Satomi doesn't mind getting close to Mashima. When he isn't around, there is no doubt that Mashima will get close to Sumire again. 

His thoughts break off seeing Sumire standing directly in front of him.

"Hmm, my dear. It's snowing outside, why don't we go on a little date before your concert starts?"

Yuhi blinked. "Do you mean, going on a walk?"

Sumire beamed happily. "You're getting smarter my dear."

At those words Yuhi put Satomi in the other chair beside Kyoko and wrapped his arms around Sumire's waist. "I don't mind going on a little stroll, but make sure you bundle up. With the snow, the temperature has dropped."

"En, of course! And if my layers aren't enough, I have you don't I?"

"Yeah, you always will."

'But who will keep you warm when I am gone? I don't want you to spend cold nights alone.'

SUMIRE

"Ah, look, the snow really piled up. It feels good." Sumire said while balancing herself on the railing as she let the cool gust of wind blow across her cheeks. The two of them made their way through the town, even though it wasn't christmas yet, there were many decorations already hung up. The streets are filled with gorgeous coloured lights. 

What stood out to her however was the large billboards with the guys in M5's faces. Ever since the media learned M5 was leaving again, they stopped with their colourful gossip about her and focused on M5 road to truly becoming international stars. Yuhi is already famous internationally, but if he takes this path? If M5 dominates the music charts in Europe? 

"Careful you'll trip." Yuhi said, breaking her thoughts.

"I'll be fine!"

A strong gust of wind blows then and she shivers, only to have a pair of strong arms wrap around her. This led to her cheeks to colour. 

"Um, Yuhi-san?"

Yuhi sighs. "You really are clumsy, now you understand why I am so worried about leaving you?"

Sumire laughs nervously. "This doesn't always happen."

Moreover, he isn't letting her go. She felt his lips on her neck and shuddered.

"Under what circumstances did you come up with these lyrics?

"I guess, when I'm feeling really insecure. Like when we were separated from each other. I felt so useless at that time. All I could do was wait. Even though I knew you would come back, I felt uneasy."

"Me too. I knew how insecure you felt but I couldn't do anything. It made me feel so frustrated."

"But, because of that we were so happy when we saw each other again." Sumire pointed out. 

That's right. Despite all the insecurities she had when he was away from her. The second they saw each other again she was filled with an incredible sense of happiness. Sumire knew that Yuhi had similar thoughts.

"That's true." Yuhi trails off. "Sumire."

Sumire turned her head then, only to have his lips on hers in a few seconds. Her eyes went wide momentarily and yet she found herself closing them almost immediately. It's so warm, whenever he kisses her there is this incredible warmth. Yuhi, she really does love him. That's why she wants to make sure that he finds himself again. Even if she isn't by his side.

 __________________________

'I really underestimated how many people would come here. In the past, I would mainly see Yuhi-san's banners but the others are getting a fair amount of attention now too. Them going to the US was for the best, that's why it's a good thing I did what I did when I refused. I directed them to Yuhi.'

When Yuhi-san finds out, there is no doubt he will be angry,

'Indeed, I was going to offer this to Terashima Yuhi's group. But between the two of you, I believe you have the most potential. Do you truly have no interest in the world scene?'

It's not like she isn't interested, because she is. However, with the current circumstances it is difficult for her to leave Japan. Perhaps when all of this mess is over. Just because she is so hung up staying here doesn't mean she has to hold others back. Although Yuhi has been helping her with underworld work, he left the underworld behind formally years ago. 

Her thoughts break off when someone slapped her back. Sumire turned to see Miya and Renna. She was worried at first that the two wouldn't get along since they have such different personalities, but it seems like they have been spending a lot of time together.

"Don't look so glum, Terashima will be back at your side before long."

Renna nodded. "Right and when he does he will marry you on the spot."

Marry huh? Indeed, they should have held the wedding ceremony. They said they would when he came back from the US. But, in the month since Yuhi-san's return, they haven't spoken about it.

At those words Miya elbowed Renna and Renna coughs. "My apologies."

Sumire shakes her head. "I still want to marry him."

No doubt Yuhi is the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with, to fulfil the promise from the other life. But not now, not when there is a lot to do. Not when she has many unsettled business.

Miya sighs and shrugs. "I wouldn't rush marriage anyway! We aren't even in our twenties yet, we still have to live our life."

"Says the single person." Renna commented. "Or are you telling me that Tachibana-san doesn't want to take responsibility for you?"

Miya's cheeks coloured. "Me and Masaru aren't in a relationship!"

Sumire's gaze softened as she watched the two. She has to do her best, not just with her own career but her entertainment world take over plan. With these two by her side, no, with everyone else too. She will lit up every single star in the entertainment industry and make them shine.

Her gaze fell on the stage, M5 was opening up with their new song. The song that is a product of everyone's emotions.

[Yuhi ] This world, stained by lies 

is now covered in snow. 

Even our absolute zero kiss 

burns with a fiery heat as 

this is our reality

 (ALL) Tokyo One Night Illusion 

 Floating in a platinum darkness. 

 Running up skyscrapers 

 as we rewrite our tragic futures. 

(Ran/Kou) This generation keeps believing 

even through their pain. 

(Jun/Tetsu)Using a password 

 not understood by adults 

( Yuhi) we whisper about the light.

(ALL) Tokyo One Night Illusion 

A flower of pure white snow blooms. 

We embrace at a terminal 

to see off a lone bus. 

Tactless reality will always try to 

tear our hands apart but 

our love continues to rain down.

[Ran] (Crystal of love) In this entire world

(Shining of love) You're the only one I feel for 

[Kou] (Crystal of love) Stop time now 

(Shining of love) because love is piling up in my heart...

[Jun/ Tetsu] Tonight we awaken 

and whisper about the light.

[Yuhi] We embrace at a terminal 

to see off a lone bus. 

Tactless reality will always try to 

tear our hands apart but 

our love shines.

Ah, she can see it quite clearly. Unlike before it's become so very clear to her now. The colours of the wind, their strong and powerful emotions. Thank you everyone for loving her so very deeply like this. She will never forget these emotions. Kou, Ran, Jun, Tetsuo-san, she really is glad they entered her life.

And Yuhi, for showing her what love truly is.

YUHI

Yuhi was certainly surprised when the concert ended and his team members and manager left him and her alone. Even though they had spoken about having a party right afterwards. Well he supposed it was alright. His gaze lands on the brunette who was spinning happily.

"You seem really happy." Yuhi observed.

Sumire turned to him, " Of course, we've conveyed our message to everyone out there." Indeed the crowd's response wasn't a huge fangirl scream. Instead there was softness and actual joy on the fans' faces. The more his career progressed.

"I hope I can come up with better lyrics. All the songs by the two of us will be heard everywhere. Everyone will be linked through our songs. This feels great."

"That almost sounds like a proposal." Yuhi jokes.

Sumire rolled her eyes. "You really are selfish my dear, you want me to propose again after all the trouble I went through last time?"

"Brat, I was the one who proposed last time. Or are you conveniently forgetting the fireworks that literally said 'Marry me?'"

It was hard for him to forget, ever since that time people have been bringing it up saying that even though he is usually cold he is secretly a romantic. 'I am only like this around her.'

Sumire laughed. "I didn't forget."

But, there is a reason he joked about this.

"Is that so? Then-" Yuhi took something out of his pocket, Sumire was clearly flustered, catching a glimpse of the small box in his hands. "Then, I wonder if I may be so bold to do something like this. Even if it can't happen right away, I want proof to everyone that you're mine." Yuhi murmurs as he kneeled down and kisses Sumire's hand. "I understand that you have things you want to do. And I respect that. But I do want to ask you now even if it can't happen right away."

Sumire's cheeks coloured at those words. "Ahem, I didn't think you would actually do this again."

"The other time it was too public. I know you never wanted a grand proposal, but we had to."

"Mm, and this is-"

"This is the proposal I knew you wanted." Yuhi kissed her fingers again. "I'll get down on my knees anytime for you, but this is special."

Sumire covers her mouth with her other hand and laughs. "You really do know how to make a girl special."

"Because you are." Yuhi stands up and pulls Sumire into his arms

He feels the girl wrap her arms around him, as he pulls Sumire for a kiss. Even after he broke it she remained snuggled on to this chest.

"I'm so happy, Yuhi you're really with me. It's not a dream right? You really asked me just now."

"Stupid." Yuhi trails off. He asked her before too. But he supposed that wasn't the best way to go about it. "If this was a dream it would be pretty sweet wouldn't it?"

And she laughs. That very soft laughter that has always seemed so very bright in his eyes.

SUMIRE

1 Year Later Star town - STAR RISE VENUE-

"Alright Star town! Are you ready?"

The crowd yells back in return, everyone enthusiastically waving their glow sticks. 'I never thought, I would return to this stage again. But, here I am, where it all started.' To think there was a time where she couldn't sing anymore, where she couldn't convey her emotions. 

Sumire was about to reveal her new song, when the music suddenly stopped, A single spotlight landed somewhere in the crowd. She blinked, not understanding what was going on until she saw the person under the spotlight.

No way. No way. No way, really?

The crowd gasped surprised and yet they made a path for him. It didn't take long before the mysterious stranger stepped onto the stage.

"My dear--" Sumire started.

"Hey.."

She couldn't believe it.

It was Yuhi.

Yuhi in the flesh

Yuhi with that stupid, loveable and sexy looking smirk--

She felt a chuckle in her mind and her eyes widened. Oh this idiot--

Yuhi walked over until he stood directly in front of her.

"So, I missed you."

Sumire laughed. "Of course you did, I'm great."

Yuhi chuckled. "Yeah, you're the greatest girl in this world."

"Hmm, compliments get you everywhere with me."

It really is Yuhi, looking healthier and happier than he did before. Even if it hurt being apart, she certainly made the right choice.

"So, when do we get married? Because, I'd marry you right now if I can."

Sumire rolled her eyes. "Your too hasty mister, if it was before you have to do a bit of courting before marriage"

His lips curve to a smile. "Understood, then, may I take you on a date tomorrow?"

Sumire took a step forward and wrapped her arms around his neck as she said 'yes' and Yuhi kissed her.
