Nakano Residence
“Bar Rafaeli. Miranda Kerr. Lady Gaga. Scarlett Johansson. Keira Knightley. Heidi Klum. Jennifer Aniston. Britney Spears. Now…Shuichi Shindou? Here‘s Yei with the details. Yei?”
Hiro blinked at the sound of his best friend‘s name. Holding a sponge in one hand and a plate in the other under the mountain of bubbles in the kitchen sink, he turned towards the television that he had turned on more for the background noise than anything else. Seeing that Bad Luck has been the subject of rampant tabloid fodder more often than not as of lately, he tended to not watch any of the entertainment news programs any longer. Unfortunately, he had not realized what channel he had on when he had turned on the TV before doing the dishes.
“That’s right, Hisao. In the past, stars have posed in the nude or semi-nude on the covers of magazines in order to promote a movie, a book, a television show or just to re-boost their careers. It’s nothing new.”
Hiro froze.
“So why would the rumors of yet another star posing nude turn the entertainment world on its head tonight?”
As if in a trance, Hiro walked out of the kitchen and into the living room with twin sudsy trails following in his wake formed from the soapy sponge forgotten in one hand and the plate he had been washing in the other.
“Because the newest star to pose in the buff would be none other than front man and partner to Eiri Yuki, Mr. Shuichi Shindou.”
The sound of shattering ceramic silenced the rest of the woman’s monologue.

“The magazine is Blaze; the controversial pornographic magazine now owned by a childhood friend of Shindou’s, one Yoshio Nakamura. Now, you may recall that in the magazine’s premiere issue of its relaunch, Shindou granted the magazine an exclusive in-depth interview-”
The picture on the screen froze and then was swallowed by blackness. Tohma lowered the remote, but his vise-like grip around the long, black instrument refused to let it go. Anger boiled inside of him, but his neutral expression gave nothing away.
Pale faced, Suguru continued to stare wide eyed at the television.
“Did you know about this?” Tohma inquired of his younger cousin in a dangerously calm voice.
Suguru opened his mouth, but closed it when nothing came out. He knew he looked like an idiot, but he could not help it. The only thing he could do was shake his head negatively.

“There have been rumors for some time now that there’s some sort of discord among the members of the pop band and between Shindou and NG Productions itself. The record company and Shindou’s people have denied these rumors of course, but one has to wonder if they aren’t in fact true, what with Bad Luck not having released anything or performed publicly for several years now. Then you have Shindou’s various side projects like his clothing line that will be unveiled at Fashion Week in a few weeks, his cologne that will be released the following week, the various acting jobs and then you have the songs he will have on the soundtrack to Kurosawa’s new movie Who Is It coupled with the bombshell that he has posed for a gay porn magazine, one has to wonder just where Bad Luck fits into all of this?”
All his energy seemed to vanish in one fell swoop. Shuichi dropped onto the sofa when his knees buckled.
The picture on the television screen changed.
“-tried to connect NG Productions for a comment but they did not return our call, but a spokesperson for Eiri Yuki released this statement this afternoon, ‘Shuichi posed for Blaze as a favor-’”
The picture on the screen changed yet again.
“-Bad Luck camp had no comment this afternoon in regards to the semi-nude photos released-”
Shuichi dropped his face into his hands. “Oh, God,” he moaned.
“-tually, these photos were taken some time ago.”
At the sound of his old friend’s voice, Shuichi’s head snapped up.
“It took some convincing to get him to actually agree to pose for Blaze,” Yoshio laughed. “He didn’t want to alienate his friends, family, band mates or his fans with anything too graphic or explicit and of course-”
The television went dark.

Preview: “Confrontation”
A/N: Sorry it’s so short. All I had originally was the first part with Hiro, but I decided that it was a little too short, so I added that part with Tohma and Seguchi and Shuichi. So what did you think?
