Catarina entered the dining room after having a good sleep. When she entered, she only found Eiichi sitting by the table. He noticed her presence and greeted her.

"G-good morning," Catarina greeted back. Suddenly she blushed because of remembering the events of last night. !!!

.  .  .  .  .  .  . Flashback .  .  .  .  .  .  .

"E-Eii-" She was again interrupted when Eiichi kissed her. This time she closed her eyes and kissed back. She put her hands over his strong ones.

Eiichi pulled away and Catarina looked into his eyes with unshed tears . Eiichi muttered to her, "I love you", before pecking her again.

"I love your smile." He gave her another peck.

"I love your music." He again pecked her lips.

"I love your passion." He kissed her lightly again.

"I love your kindness."He softly kissed her.

"I love how you care for everyone." He once again gave her a peck.

"I love everything about you. So please... stay with me. Don't leave me. Love me."

Eiichi pulled Catarina closer to him by wrapping an arm around the waist. With his other hand, he lifted her chin.

Eiichi leaned down and pressed his lips on hers. The kiss was full of love and affection.

.  .  .  .  .  .  .

The sudden recollection of their intimate moment made Catarina embarrassed.

That's right.....We are now a couple...
To hide her blush, she looked down. So she didn't notice the smirk on Eiichi's face.

"Good morning, Rin-chan!" Eiji came from the kitchen.

"Good morning,Eiji."

W-Woah! If his normal smile is like the sun, then what is this smile like!? It's too bright!

Indeed, Eiji had a bright smile on his face.

"Eto.. Eiji,why-"

"Mornin', Na-chan." Van greeted from the kitchen. Catarina greeted him back, but could not ask Eiji why his smile was so bright today.

Later on, Shion and Yamato joined them. Kira had an early morning job so he wasn't present there.

*  *  *  *  *  *  *

Catarina stood silently as she watched HEAVENS' commercial recording.It was about for promoting a musical instruments company.

For this,each were taking solo videos with their instruments. Shion was with harps, Yamato on drums, Van with a trumpet, Eiji playing violin, Nagi with his viola and Kira on a piano.

The last one was Eiichi. He was sitting beside the big window with a guitar. One of his legs was stretched out while the other bend for holding the instrument properly as he leaned on the wall.

"..."

"Director,is there something wrong?" Eiichi asked once the cameras stopped rolling. The director was frowning.

". . .  It feels like something is missing," the director proposed.

"Something is missing?"

"You are doing a wonderful job,Otori-kun. But I want to show a different side of you then we usually see."

"A different side..?"Eiichi thought about it for a while before his eyes met Catarina's for a second. A smirk appeared on his lips. "How about a scene with my girlfriend? I'll be teaching her how to play the guitar."

Catarina was sure Eiichi looked at her when he said 'my girlfriend'. So she couldn't but stare at the man in shock.

"...That's it! Let's try that!" The director ordered the people around for some changes in the set. He and Eiichi started discussing the details.

Eiichi. . . what are you planning?

The other HEAVENS members, after finishing their turns, were at a corner with Catarina.

"Thats a novel idea for Eiichi," Shion stated.

"Scene with his girlfriend? Eii-Chan's getting pretty mature." Van grinned and Nagi snickered.

"Nii-San never fails to surprise me," muttered Eiji.

"But don't we have a problem?" Yamato raised a brow.

"What?" Catarina curiously asked.

Kira,understanding Yamato's point asked,"Who will be his girlfriend?"

Uhh...

The same question was asked by the director at that moment. "Who will play the girl?"

"There aren't any models or actresses available at the moment,sir." A staff informed the senior man.

"We do not need any professional actresses for the part. Only her silhouette will be shown," stated the director. "Even a female staff member will do. We have the make up artists to perfect her look."

A silence fell over the place. It was because all the staffs were males.

The director sighed in frustration. "We don't have much time to waste. Hurry up and find someone suitable for the part!"

"I don't think we have any need to do that, director." Eiichi suddenly said from behind him.

"What do you mean?"

"There's someone suitable for the role right here."

Catarina felt a shiver run down her spine when she felt the brunette idol's gaze on her.

I don't have a good feeling about this...

"Our composer here can play the role." Following Eiichi's gaze, the older man looked at Catarina. Catarina flinched and again missed Eiichi's smirk.

"You over there!" The older man pointed at the blonde.

H-He's not talking about me,is he?

"Get ready for the shoot!"

"E-Eh?B-But I can't act!"

Catatina was pushed from behind by none other than Nagi. "She's perfect for the role! She can act well when necessary!" Nagi smirked.

Nagi, you betrayar!! The blonde glared at him.

"Go on,Rinna."

All of a sudden, Catarina was pulled to a changing room.

Eiichi...!!! She shouted at her boyfriend when she saw him grinning.

.  .  .  .  .  .  .  .

"Woah,she's beautiful.." Whispers broke among the staffs when Catarina entered the set.

The blonde was forced to wear the pale pink top and a white skirt. Her hair was open, as it reached her back. She felt uncomfortable under all those gazes.

"Uhh. . ."Catarina looked at where HEAVENS was. Van and Nagi were giving her two thumbs up, Eiji,Kira and Shion had smiles while Yamato gave her a nod telling her she looked fine. It at least calmed her down.

"Now let's start the recording." The director ordered the staff. "Make it look like you guys are talking about how to play the guitar."

"Come here,angel."

"E-Eiichi?!"

Eiichi took her hand and guided her to the sofa. He took a seat and pulled her hand so she was sitting between him.

Oh... After properly holding the guitar, it seemed like Eiichi was hugging Catarina from behind. His hands were over hers on the instrument.

Even after the cameras started rolling, Catarina couldn't stop herself from blushing. He was too close.

As Eiichi's hands guided hers over the strings, he whispered in her ear. "Nervous,angel?" His whispering voice was bad for her heart.

"Why won't I be?" She whispered back.

"Relax, Catarina.Don't be so nervous. You ARE with your boyfriend after all."

That's right....We really are....

"But that's a different story...and why did you suddenly choose me to act as your... g-girlfriend?Were you planning this from the start?"

"Nope.The idea came to my mind when I looked at you. And as for why..."

"Because I want only you to play the role. You're my girlfriend. I don't want to do this with anyone else." Eiichi tightened his embrace.

"Eiichi. . ." Her heart swelled with happiness.

"Don't you feel the same way? You wouldn't want to see me hold someone else like this, would you?"

"....I don't even want to imagine it."

*  *  *  *  *  *  *

"That was some pretty great shot, you two." Van slipped a hand around Catarina's shoulders.

"Thanks?"

"I think it could've been more intense." Nagi grinned mischievously. "Though I agree with Van."

"Nagi,I didn't forget how you pushed me!"

"I only gave you a boost!"

"Now now, Rin-chan, Nagi, don't forget we're in the car." Eiji turned to Catarina. "Although I think Nagi's push really gave you a boost."

She gasped loudly."Eiji,you are taking Nagi's side!?"

"Don't be so dramatic."Yamato rolled his eyes.

"Rin was cute." Kira nodded at Shion's words.

"...thanks." She mumbled.

"It seems everyone is satisfied," Eiichi finally spoke. "But I have an excellent news."

"What is it?"Nagi looked at his leader with curiosity.

The whole car fell silent in anticipation to what he would declare.

"HEAVENS..." Eiichi looked at each of the members and Catarina, "is going to get its own radio show!" His glasses gleamed.

Wo-Woah!

"Whaaat?!!?" Van, Eiji, Nagi and Yamato exclaimed.

"It's a great surprise,right?" The leader smirked.

"Yeah....quite unexpected," Catarina nodded.

"Our own radio show? Wow." Eiji smiled.

"It's impressive," Kira commented.

"Yes. Let our voices resonate throughout the country," Shion gently said.

"Our segment will start after STARISH finishes their radio show. It's so exciting! Good!" Eiichi exclaims.

"STARISH's show? You mean the ones that we always hear?"Van got a nod from him.

"It's great!" Yamato grinned.

"Let's discuss more about this at home,"announced Eiichi.

"Okay!"

He looks so excited. Catarina and Eiichi shared a smile when their eyes met. However, a certain raven and pinkette noticed their secret exchange.
