Summary: A 17-year-old producer visits Mahora academy to enroll his younger sister in the place. Natsumi Murakami tries to get him to put her into his next production. However, there is a snag... Set when Negi is 14. M/F

Mahora class 2-A was at the end of an English lesson when the news came in. A producer from America was going to be visiting Mahora academy, thinking about enrolling his younger sister in school.
"A famous producer here?" Natsumi asked with stars in her eyes.
"This could be your big chance, Natsumi-chan." Yotsuba said.
"I can hardly wait!" Natsumi said.
"We wish you the best, Natsumi-chan." Negi said.
If she had known then what she knew now....
The next week the producer arrived with his little sister. She was about 10 or so, and looked cute as a button. Natsumi was more interested in the older brother, however. He was about 17, and bishonen. He was attired in a suit and tie, and went to the offices with his sister to register her.
When he was done, he stepped out and met Natsumi.
"Pardon me, are you that American producer?" Natsumi asked.
"Yea. What do you want?" He replied.
"My name is Natsumi Murakami. I was wondering if you might have some acting role that I could perform?
"Well Murakami-san, we have had several requests for redheads with freckles. You do know what I produce, don't you?" Frank asked.
"Uh... No. What do you produce?" Natsumi asked.
"Online porn." He responded.
"Oh." Natsumi replied. "I thought that was illegal for people your age in the USA, right?" Natsumi asked.
"I don't do it there, I do it on a man-made island in the pacific." He said.
"Oh." Natsumi replied. She was quite downhearted at this.
"Well, you've got a lot of what we're looking for, so how about it? Pay will start at ¥700,000 and goes up if you're good." He said.
"I'll... I'll have to think about this." Natsumi said.
The next morning, the girls were gathered in the bath and talking.
"So did he want you for his movie?" Yotsuba asked.
"Yea... But I don't know if I want to do it." Natsumi replied.
"Why not?" Satomi asked.
"He does porn." Natsumi replied.
A deathly silence fell over the room for a minute or so.
"What did you tell him?" Yotsuba asked.
"I said I'd think about it." Natsumi replied.
"I don't know if I could ever do that, no matter how desperate I was." Yue said.
"I want a break, but this isn't what I'm really looking for." Natsumi said.
"I wouldn't do it. You'd just be degrading yourself in front of a camera." Asuna said.
"Yea... Plus they say it really messes you up." Satomi added.
"Yea. I don't think it would be worth the ¥700,000 either." Natsumi added.
"¥700,000? That's a lot of money, but it's not worth it." Yue said.
It was agreed that Natsumi would tell him no. Natsumi later confronted Frank about this.
"I've decided that I do not want any part of your productions." Natsumi said.
Frank nodded. "You got good looks and guts, girl. I tell you what; here's the business card of Koro Watanabe. He is a very important agent. If anyone can get you work, he can." Frank said as he gave Natsumi the card. Natsumi blushed as she took it.
"Uh... Thank you... I think." Natsumi said.
"He does everything from religious parables to porn. They say he's one of the best-connected agents in Japan. He's even worked with Mifune-sama and Kurosawa-sama's studios." Frank said.
That put the stars in Natsumi's eyes.
"Every Japanese actress dreams of working with Kurosawa-dono's studios!" Natsumi said. She held the card close to her perky tits.
"I've got to call this number as soon as I can!" Natsumi said.
She did so and found out that she'd have to send an mpeg of her doing a one-minute speech to them via e-mail and they would call her if they liked it. Well, long story short, they liked it and she passed a second audition in front of the agent.
"Well, you do have a lot of raw talent, Natsumi-san. I think we have some parts that may interest you." The agent said. He assigned one of the juniors to take her case and find her a production or two. The first one she got the part for was a public service announcement against perverts. It involved her standing in a subway car while wearing a schoolgirl's outfit. A pervert would then try to lift her skirt up, and she'd catch him trying and really let him have it. When she met the actor playing the pervert, however, her bishonen radar went into overload. The young man was about 17 like her; he had brown hair and eyes, but worked out a lot, and it showed. Natsumi couldn't help but smile in his presence. They said hello and talked for a bit. He said his name was Suguri. Natsumi really liked what he was saying, especially when he said that he wasn't seeing anyone right now and wanted to date a freckle-faced redhead.
Anyway, they boarded the subway and filmed the scene. Natsumi smacked Suguri with a harisen, and he acted as if it hurt a lot and fell to the ground. They did this a few times and then stopped for the day.
After they received their meager pay (about ¥5,000,) Suguri asked Natsumi if she had any plans for the night. She smiled and said no. Suguri asked her if she'd like to go to dinner with him. She eagerly agreed, and they boarded the train.
While on the train, Natsumi and Suguri talked and got to know each other better. Suguri was going to an all-boy's school where he hoped to become an actor.
"It hasn't been easy. Our drama club has few members because none of the guys wants to play a girl's role." Suguri replied.
"Yea, there aren't many girls in my club that like to play guys either." Natsumi added. They had dinner together and more conversation. Afterwards, Suguri took Natsumi back to the Mahora dorm. Just outside the doors, Natsumi and Suguri put their arms around each other and gave each other a quick hug.
"I'm sorry, but I have to leave now to return before my curfew. However, I want to see you again." Suguri said.
The next morning in the bath, everyone was around Natsumi.
"So how did it go?" Yotsuba asked.
"He was an absolute dream! I couldn't get enough of him!" Natsumi said.
"Him? Him who? We want details, girl!" Satomi said.
"His name is Suguri and he's my co-star in that PSA. He really likes me too!" Natsumi said.
"He got a brother?" Several girls asked at once.
"I don't know... But I do know that he's going to the Bushifu academy." Natsumi replied.
"Hmm... A lot of the guys there are cute, and from rich families." Fuka said.
"Is he from a rich family?" Yotsuba asked.
"He said his family wasn't very wealthy. His father is a kacho in the Japanese mint." Natsumi said.
"Interesting..." Fuka said. "I'd still like to meet some of his friends though."
Well, on the second date, Natsumi and Suguri went for a walk in the park. They talked some more and got to know each other some more and liked what the other was saying. At the end of the date, they went back to the Mahora dorms. This time, Suguri and Natsumi embraced each other and kissed.
They were filled with a lot of passion, the kind of which they had dreamed about. Natsumi and Suguri decided that they were made for each other. After they parted, Natsumi and Suguri smiled the smile of love at each other.
The next day, Natsumi got a call from the agency. There was a play casting and they thought she'd be right for one of the secondary roles. After class, she took the train straight to the casting call. Natsumi was surprised to find that the man standing in front of her was Suguri.
"I hope you're trying out for Sakura." Suguri said. "I'm trying for Manure." She found out that this was a harem situation, where the hero gets his make friends involved and the girls get other guys. Originally, Natsumi was trying out for another part but changed her mind when she was told there would be a chance of her getting to kiss Suguri onstage. Natsumi and Suguri got their respective parts, although the director originally wanted another girl to play Sakura. However, she had no chemistry with Suguri. Natsumi was a natural pair for Suguri.
Rehearsals were straightforward. Natsumi and Suguri nailed their parts and worked well with each other onstage. The night of the first performance, Natsumi and Suguri were in the dressing area by themselves.
"If this is a dream, I don't want to wake up." Natsumi said.
"I'm nervous about it too, Natsumi-chan. However, we've prepared enough, and we're sure to knock 'em dead." Suguri replied.
"Yea... However, the others don't seem to have our level of acting." Natsumi noted. Suguri put his arms around her, and she returned his embrace.
"Just worry about your lines. Everything else will take care of itself." Suguri replied.
Natsumi smiled as she stared into his eyes. "Thank you." She said as she went in for a kiss. That's when the director walked in. They quickly parted lips and faced the director.
"We were just... Uhm... Rehearsing." Suguri said.
"Since when did rehearsing involve tongues?" The director asked.
Natsumi and Suguri sweatdropped.
"We need you two for the next scene, so don't screw it up!" The director said with a touch of anger in his voice.
Anyway, Natsumi and Suguri went onstage and nailed everything perfectly. Their onstage chemistry really showed. The dwindling audience stopped leaving the theater and returned to their seats. However, once their scene ended, the audience started leaving again; the principal actors were just bad.
Offstage, Natsumi and Suguri waited holding hands. Natsumi was still a bit nervous, and kept squeezing Suguri's hand.
"Ah, Natsumi-chan, you're hurting my hand." Suguri said nervously.
"Oh. Sorry." Natsumi replied. She continued to hold his hand, but didn't squeeze it.
At the end of the play, only the critics were left in the audience. They rushed out as soon as the final curtain fell.
"Oh god, they hate us!" Natsumi said in tears. Suguri put an arm around her and comforted her.
"Natsumi-chan, my mentor said that you shouldn't be afraid to fail, because you'll learn more from it." Suguri said. "You were flawless out there. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise."
"Yea... It still sucks to be the only good thing about a crappy production." Natsumi said.
The next morning, the students gathered before class. Yotsuba entered carrying a newspaper.
"Hey listen! A critic reviewed your play, Natsumi!" Yotsuba said as she held up a newspaper.
"What does it say?" Natsumi asked with nervous anticipation.
"It's plays like this that make this job a job. I desperately wanted out of this production within 5 minutes of its opening." Yotsuba read to a crestfallen Natsumi. "The leads have no chemistry whatsoever. Shamini-san could be replaced with a cardboard cutout and we'd get better acting. Watanabe-san is more wooden than a chestnut tree."
"Oh no..." Natsumi said.
"Wait, there's more. ' I saw only two good things about this play; the first being Murakami-san, who played Sakura. The other was Dorifu-san, who played Munzuno. These two have a genuine chemistry that is rarely found anywhere. They should have played the leads. Unfortunately, they are background characters, and sorely not used enough. Overall, I cannot recommend this play.' That's it." Yotsuba said.
"He liked me? Oh, wow! I can't believe it!" Natsumi said. "This could be the start of something great!"
Unfortunately, the critics panned the play, and after 9 performances, it was closed. Natsumi was downhearted about this.
Two days after the play closed, however, Suguri showed up at Natsumi's room. He saw how bad she felt and tried to reassure her. Natsumi was a nervous wreck at the time.
"I might as well give up being an actress." Natsumi said.
"Don't let one bad experience deter you, Natsumi-chan. Even Mifune-dono had a few bad experiences in the theater. We just have to try again." Suguri said.
Yotsuba came to the rescue. She asked Natsumi and Suguri to do a commercial for her. They agreed and filmed it within a day at Yotsuba's stand. Afterwards, Suguri bought Natsumi dinner. The commercial was limited to Yotsuba's website, however.
After finals, Natsumi and Suguri heard about a movie that needed extras and invited Natsumi to try out with him. Natsumi had to wear a bikini for the part, but she didn't mind it. She got to see Suguri in a pair of tight swimtrunks, and they showed each other just how well genetics were to them. Instead of the extras part they tried out for, both Suguri and Natsumi were bumped into supporting roles, once the producers saw how well they worked with each other.
A few weeks later, they filmed the scenes. The movie's plot was a bunch of guys after one girl while the girls were after one guy. Eventually both sides realize that they can't get the one person they want, and end up pairing with each other, starting with Natsumi and Suguri. It took all summer to do their parts, and being out in the sun a lot made Natsumi's freckles more pronounced. She was self-conscious about it, constantly applying high SPF sunscreen. It only seemed to slow down the inevitable. Suguri still assured her that he loved her, however. He told her that he thought that it was more endearing to have freckles. Well, after the filming was over, Suguri took Natsumi out for a night on the town. They had dinner at Yotsuba's diner and then went dancing. Suguri seemed to like it most during the slow songs, as that's when he got to hold Natsumi close. Unfortunately, Suguri is was not a very graceful dancer, and stepped on Natsumi's toes a few times. After about 5 minutes of this, Natsumi took Suguri off the dance floor.
"Suguri-kun, I love you, but I don't think we should ever dance again." Natsumi said.
"I understand. I'm not much of a natural dancer. Please forgive my missteps." Suguri replied.
That fall when she returned to class, Natsumi was bombarded with questions.
"So how was your summer? Did you spend it with Suguri-san? What's with the tan?" Kazumi asked in rapid-fire succession.
"We were in a movie together on the beach." Natsumi replied. "I had to spend a lot of time in a bikini."
"So what did he think of you in a bikini? Are you two serious now or what?" Kazumi persisted.
"We've always been serious. We liked seeing each other in very little." Natsumi replied. The others giggled.
"So how did you spend summer, Kazumi-chan?" Natsumi asked.
"Well... I spent it searching for a good story to write about." Kazumi replied.
It was Christmas Eve when Suguri showed up at Natsumi's door. He had planned to spend the night with her at a hotel in Tokyo. They had several dates before this night, but this date would be different. Suguri took her to the hotel and they got comfortable.
"You know, this hotel has a hot spring bath for couples." Suguri said.
"Do you want to try it with me?" Natsumi asked.
"Yea. So you wanna go?" Suguri asked.
"Well... All right." Natsumi replied. After dinner, Natsumi took the pill and they went to that private bath and disrobed. Natsumi perked up at seeing Suguri's muscular chest and his cock. Suguri also was enthralled by Natsumi's 91 cm of sweater meat staring him in the face.
"Suguri, my face is up here." Natsumi said after catching herself. Suguri apologized as he entered the water. After helping Natsumi enter, they sat next to each other and held each other close.
"This is like a dream come true. Every guy dreams of having a woman like you, Natsumi." Suguri said.
"Well, women dream of a guy like you, Suguri." Natsumi replied after giggling. She then gave him a long, passionate kiss while running her hand over his chest. Suguri caressed Natsumi, savoring the feel of her skin. She could sense he was getting hard; she was getting aroused as well. She felt his stiffening pecker on her leg. Natsumi couldn't stop herself; she reached down and held Suguri's dick in her hand. Suguri responded by reaching between Natsumi's legs and placing his hand on her slit. Both of them moaned softly into each other's ear at the same time.
Natsumi then sat on the side of the tub and guided Suguri's head to her cunt. She spread her legs wide as he started giving her oral. Being Natsumi's first time, she started cramping up. Suguri pulled back when he saw that she was in pain.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Cramps." Natsumi replied as she grimaced.
"Try stretching a bit. That might help." Suguri suggested. He helped her stretch and work out that area. After a few minutes, Suguri went back down on Natsumi. While she continued to have cramps, they weren't as bad as before. Natsumi felt the pleasure outweigh the pain. She moaned softly as Suguri's tongue worked its magic inside her pussy. Suguri felt Natsumi getting wet and enjoyed every moment of it. After a while, Suguri stood up and invited Natsumi to give head. She eagerly took his cock into her mouth and gave him a blowjob. It was the first time he'd ever gotten head, and he couldn't get enough of it. Natsumi continued to lick and suck his hard stick until he was near coming. At one point, she ran her tongue around the tip of his prick while stroking his balls. Suguri moaned and gasped, punctuated by breathless yeses and pleas for more.
Well, a little later, Natsumi slid back into the water and Suguri joined her in there. He then slid his boner deep inside Natsumi's wet, tight tunnel of love.
Natsumi gasped sharply as Suguri completed his entry.
"Ooh... That feels huge..." Natsumi moaned.
"You feel very tight..." Suguri moaned back. Natsumi was still experiencing a little cramping and a bit of bleeding, bit the pleasure outweighed the pain. She thought about things for a moment; it wasn't like how Asuna said it was. Asuna said sex was nothing but feeling tense, and then feeling relaxed after orgasming. Natsumi was feeling as if god wanted her to be this man's lover. Suguri was feeling the same thing as he rammed her love cave with his rod. They only did a few positions; one had her on top, and the others, he was on top. Natsumi felt more in control of her body when Suguri was on top, however. After a good while of this, Suguri came hard inside her. This caused Natsumi to climax. Fortunately, Natsumi wasn't much of a screamer. She did moan softly a lot though.
The two of them pulled back and collapsed in the tub. Natsumi got water in her cunt as Suguri put an arm around her. She didn't care about that, though; she had been given an orgasm by a handsome man. Natsumi returned his arm and smiled. She felt warm and comfortable resting in her arms. Natsumi put her head on Suguri's shoulder and smiled. Suguri cuddled Natsumi in response.
"I can't thank you enough for this, Natsumi-chan. It was far better than I had anticipated." Suguri whispered into her ear. Natsumi responded that she liked making love to him as well. They praised each other's bed skills for a while, and then got out, dried off, and dressed. Natsumi and Suguri slept that night holding each other close.
They spent the next day at the premiere of the beach movie they were in. Although a minor production with minimal distribution, the critics liked it and distribution went up. Natsumi and Suguri continued to date and enjoy life with each other. They did another film together, again in supporting roles.
A few weeks later, Natsumi met Suguri's family. They seemed to like her and vice versa. Later Natsumi took Suguri to meet her family. They seemed to have a few reservations about him at first, but eventually he got them to accept him.
However, some problems developed. A tabloid falsely reported Suguri out with another woman in Kyoto. Natsumi was at the academy when she heard this, and was quite heartbroken over it. She went to her dorm room and cried. After a couple of minutes of this, Kazumi entered sporting a copy of the tabloid.
"I just read this, Natsumi-chan. I really feel bad for you." Kazumi said.
Natsumi pulled her head off the pillow and saw the picture on the cover.
"Let me see that." She said through the tears. Kazumi gave her the tabloid and Natsumi stared at the picture. She seemed very relieved seeing the picture.
"This... This is his cousin! I knew he wouldn't cheat on me!" Natsumi said, her face lit up.
"That's great!" Kazumi replied. "These guys aren't too reliable."
Well, Natsumi called Suguri and told him what had happened. He informed her that he would look into the matter. The tabloid, once contacted, printed a retraction.
Their next production together had as its lead noted actress Haruko Momoi. It was shortly after the scandal came about.
"My husband and I get that sometimes too. You have to ignore what the press says and be honest with each other." She said.
"Arigato, Momoi-sama." Natsumi replied.
"I saw your last film. You two show great promise together." Haruko added. Suguri and Natsumi politely bowed before her.
"We feel deeply honored by your words, Momoi-sama." Suguri said.
This film won them more praise and admiration in the film world. While things weren't perfect, they did eventually marry and move in after graduating.
-End-
