Ch III

Co-worker: "Good morning, Kuin!"

I got to work with all of my colleagues greeting me as usual. I went on with my usual works until boss beckons me over. "What's up?" I say to him.

Boss: "Kuin, I have a new assignment for you. This magazine is doing a serial story on Yuzuki Kitaoji."

Lillie: "You mean the famous actor?!" I couldn't help but squeal.

Boss: "That's the one! We want you to do a serial cover story on him."

So boss explained to me what i need to do and that I'll meet him this afternoon and we'll start the story tomorrow morning.

At lunch time, I walk out of the building to see Kenshi at the main entrance waving at me. He came to have a quick check-up on me just to see if i'm alright. I smile at him, "kansha, Kenny."

He smiled gently at me: "no problem."

Lillie: "Oh right, you won't believe it! I'm doing a serial story on Yuzuki Kitaoji!" 

***

Riki: "The famous actor?"

At LRN. I went for a quick lunch there, it's not too far from my office and i have a long lunch break. Everybody has day jobs but they still come here for lunch most of the times.

Lillie: "Yup."

Takuto: "And why exactly are you telling us this?"

Lillie: "I'm going to be photographing his life. Which means i need to follow him around some places where he usually hangs at. ~O(∩_∩)O~ just to give you guys an idea of where i will be."

Hiro: "Break a leg!"

***

"...I look forward to working with you." I say in conclusion. Boss and I are with Yuzuki in a small conference room. He's totally nice and gorgeous /^o^/. 

When boss left us alone to discuss what we need to do for work, he started speaking first.

Yuzuki: "you can drop the act, now." I gave him a confused expression. "You're faking a personality. I'm an actor, i can easily tell when people are pretending to be someone who they aren't."

His polite attitude from before basically vanished, he started talking to me in a casual way. Too casual.

I shrug. 

Lillie: "so what are your plans for tomorrow?" 

Yuzuki: "I'm gonna go meet some friends, we're going to a museum." 

So we arranged 9 a.m.

"Hey, Kuin." Riki said as i enter LRN, "listen up, we have a mission."

Lillie: "Mission?"

Hiro: "We're taking something from this museum." he shows me a photo.

Lillie: "Ah, that one." It's the same one Yuzuki is going to tomorrow. "When's the mission."

Atsumu: "Tomorrow after dark." 

~~

Riki: "Great, if you're going to be there first you can locate the painting for us." 

Takuto: "You better not screw things up."

***

I wait for Yuzuki in the lobby of some hotel. It's 8:50 a.m.

I see him walk down the huge stack of stairs with three more guys with him. I immediately recognized Ryoichi Hirose and Noel Aijima. Another one looked younger than me.

Yuzuki: "Lillie Kuin, who's doing a front cover on me." he simply introduces. I beamed them a smile.

Ryoichi: "Why hello." he says to me and grabs my chin! "You're rather pretty for an editor."

Lillie: "Is that even supposed to be a complement?" 

"Wow, Ryo, you hit on every girl you see," the younger one said, who later on i knew as Mirai.

Ryoichi Hirose pulled my face up, smirking. That's it! 

I slapped his hand clean off and say, "paws off." in a harsh tone. He looked a bit shocked for an instant, but i guess he's good at hiding his emotions.

Ryoichi: "Playing hard-to-get, huh?"

Lillie: "Do-not-get." i warned him.

Yuzuki: "I see you're opening up." he smiled. OMG why is he so gorgeous?! 

Wait a minute, they don't allow you to take photos at a museum, do they? 

I was going to say something when they started walking and i had to catch up. They were asking me questions and talking along, which i find rather suspicious. And these people don't look like they're interested in artifacts.

 As they are keeping some interesting conversations at the place. The tour quickly ended, i got some quick shots of him walking on the street, but no cameras are allowed inside the building.

***

"Everybody in place?" leader asks.

It's after dark, we were all ready for action. The van drove up.

Takuto: "security disarmed."

Riki: "It's showtime."

Kenshi and Riki will sneak in while Hiro stalls the guards. Takuto stays in the van and keeps an eye on the security cameras. I hide in the shadows and warn them in case someone's coming. 

Just when Kenshi and Riki went inside, I spot Yuzuki and the three other guys half a block away from the building, it looks like they're watching what's going on. Kenshi and Riki jumped out with a painting in hand. I ran back with them, I took another glance at Yuzuki before hoping on the van, I see they had a surprised look on their faces, probably because they didn't expect a female thief. 

Ah i get it. They came to this museum earlier today to check out the piece we were going to steal tonight. This is why i don't get why the BF send out threats to the public.

Back at LRN. 

Everybody was celebrating and it seems like no one noticed the people were watching them. The BF didn't have a habit of covering their faces while on the job, I'm afraid they've seen their faces. Meh, if they didn't notice why should i bother.

"You..." I meet Yuzuki at the hotel again the next day, he was with the guys again. 

Lillie: "so what're your plans for today?" I speak normally.

Mirai: "you're a Black Fox." I gave them a dark smile.

Lillie: "it's not so polite to spy on people."

Ryoichi: "aren't you afraid we'll call the cops?"

I shook my head, "you wouldn't." "why so sure?" "because you value your lives, don't you?" 

Can't believe how this happened, but none of them seems to see the BF as criminals, so they accepted everything and the day went on.

You probably think it's dangerous for someone out of the circle to know. But i'm more than sure that they won't tell. :D

I didn't mention them knowing to the BFs. I'm not sure how they'll react. Likewise, it'll be like nothing ever happened.

~*~*~*~*

A few days slipped by.

"Black Foxes," Riki says, at LRN, "we have a new mission in three days."

Lillie: "YAY~ what can i do this time?" I drink on my smoothie, bad habit again, must eat something!

Atsumu: "Huh?"

Riki: "same as before, i guess." 

Lillie: *pouting slightly* "I can do more than just standing sentry, you know."

Riki: "then amaze us this time." 

Kenshi: "you can follow me and Riki."   I beam a smile.

~~

We 're hiding in a pack of bushes. Security alarm is off. But Hiro is nowhere to be seen.

Kenshi: "where is he?"

Riki: "he's supposed to be distracting the guards!"

Lillie: "watch me." I shuffle through the bushes before they can stop me and make my way to the door. I knock twice signalling Riki and Kenshi that they can flip through the window inside.

Guard: "who's there?"

Lillie: "Sono, can you help me with something." I pull on a scared and meek expression.

"What's a little girl doing here in the middle of the night?" the other guard says, now they're attention are all on me. Riki and Kenshi flip through the window across of the room and quietly take the painting. 

Lillie: "Can you find my little sister? I think i lost her..." my voice cracked to the verge of crying as I lower my head.

"You're lost?" they ask.

"Hai...." i whisper. Doing everything i can to compress the grin that's mentally growing.

"I'm sorry but we can't leave." they say in a sympathetic voice.

Idiots.

Lillie: "I get it, thanks for your time." I bow and walk out of the door, as soon as the door closes i break into a sprint and hop on the van with the others all onboard. That's when i heard from behind me: "The painting's missing!"

Kenshi: "That was impressive, Kuin." 

Lillie: "O(∩_∩)O Arigato~ Kenny!" 

Takuto: "where were you, Hiro?"

Hiro: "A bunch of guards saw me behind the building and i got caught questioned for a while."

Lillie: "Don't worry :D I can take place for any of you guys! I'm like a super substitude!"

Riki: "Oh? Is that so?"

Lillie: "So feel free to get sick so i can fill in for one of you! >o< ^-^"

BF: *sweat drop* "O-kay?"

Kenshi: "Oh, watch out!" 

Before we can ask what, the van suddenly shook hard. And i fell because i was standing. The pain of crashing onto the floor never came, as i raise my head I see Riki's face. We're two inches away.

Lillie: "Kansha, Riki." I ignore the fact that he's holding my shoulders. 

Riki: "are you coming on to me?" he smirks. typical Riki. 

Lillie: *still smiling* "thanks for catching me, now please let go before i punch you in the lips."

"A toast to another victory and Lillie's big help!" boss raised his glass.

Another toast? I really can't take the alcohol anymore. I order some juice instead.

"Hey, Lillie." I turn around to see Hiro standing behind me, "Yes?"

Hiro: "Don't drink too much, k?"   I smile, "thank you."

They're all such sweethearts. I feel bad staying with these good people. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For some reason i have always found Yuzuki Kitaoji beautiful/ gorgeous/ cute/ pretty/ handsome. 

It's lust at first sight!!!

Though his main story, not so much. Just his character and profile.
