Prologue

“What do you mean she’s pregnant?!” Matsujun all but growled into his phone.

He was currently at the set for one of Arashi’s regular shows, Arashi ni Shiyagare, when he received the text message that read “Problem. Call ASAP!”

He almost didn’t. Matsujun had intended to make use of the brief break in-between shooting to call Mao. He really wanted to hear her voice, it was the only thing that would really calm him during his busiest days, and boy was this day one of his busiest ever. But the message had a really serious feel to it that Matsujun just had to comply, especially since the sender would not message him something like that if it wasn’t really serious. This is why it was another set of numbers he had dialed when he stepped in the hallway outside their greenroom during their brief break.

It was serious, alright.

His thick eyebrows almost formed a straight line when he heard the reply from the other side. And if it wasn’t for the fact that someone might hear him, he would have loved to have shouted at the one on the other line. Instead, he sighed.

“Where are you right now?” he asked instead. After taking note of the location, he added “I’d be done here in an hour. Stay there.”

Matsujun had to close his eyes for a moment, leaning on the wall with one hand massaging his temples when that phone call ended. There goes the good night’s sleep he had wanted to have when the shoot ends. A great throbbing headache was already threatening to emerge, something he absolutely did not need.

It was only after one of the staff called to him that he opened his eyes and forced himself to smile. The shooting was about to commence.
----------

85 minutes later…

“Thanks for the hard work… I’ll be going ahead…” Matsujun had called to the room at large as he swung his bag onto his shoulders, turning to face his group mates. Their shooting for the day had officially ended and the five of them were already preparing to leave.

“Ne, Jun-kun? What’s with the rush? You’re not yet going home, are you?” asked Ohno curiously, looking at their youngest member.

“Of course I am, Riida!” Matsujun answered defensively, staring at their unusually observant leader. “Why?”

“Because you’re not riding with us?” came Sho’s reply, making Matsujun turn to face him. There was a knowing look in Sho’s eyes, as well as Nino’s and Aiba’s (though those two had a hint of mischievous smirk etched on their lips), that Matsujun did not like seeing.

Matsujun almost groaned. How could he have forgotten? Ever since his and Nino’s driving encounters, Johnny had decided to ban all five of them from driving for the year. It wasn’t really a problem since the jimusho had sent a car to drive them to their shooting locations and the like, which meant that during those days when the five of them has a shooting together, a shuttle becomes their service. It was fun really; it was just like when they were younger when they’d be fooling around in the car all the time.

But it also meant that when they are together, it is easily noticeable where one is (or is not) going.

Matsujun was still searching for a believable alibi when Nino said

“Go already!”

He was momentarily taken aback by this, but when he saw the understanding look in his group mates’ eyes, he smiled, thankful that they all understood what his momentary silence meant. With a smile and a last bow to the four, he left the room.
----------

A few miles away, Mao was seated on a taxi, her eyes glued to her phone. She had just finished sending a message that read “On my way now. Be there in 5 minutes.” She was slowly getting worried as she read the message she had replied to. It read “Come here now please…”

hi there! thanks for dropping a comment... i wasn't even sure someone's going to read this... :)

actually, i'm a maojun shipper first with yamaki on the side... :) but i like yamaki too... got interested with the pair because of the many fics out there... the concept i had in mind didn't quite fit the yamaki pair more than the maojun pair so this came about...

Hope you don't get too disappointed... Thanks again...:)
