A/N: The loving memory of Shouta. Best Boi didn't deserve to die. All he wanted was to be an idol. He lived for the applause of so many others.
He will be missed...Never forget him...

They been best friends since middle school. People always wondered why did Shouta stayed by Kuro's side after all this time...

Did Shouta befriended him out of pity...?

If that's true...then why didn't Shouta stop hanging around him...

Like everyone else always do...

Everyone leaves him...but why didn't Shouta did the same...

Like Kuro said...he was different from the others...Shouta treated him like an actual human being while nobody else did.

Who knows...

But for some reason, even though he hated to admit it. Both Kuro and Shouta had a bond. A bond that tie them together.

Sure Kuro had Mei...but Shouta was something else...

People who had friends were probably fakes...

Shouta was not a FAKE.

They were like friends...like brothers...

Shouta: Kuro~~~!

Kuro: Oh no...What is it?!

Shouta: Remember how I wanted to be an idol?

Kuro: Yes....?

Shouta: I need your opinion. Do you think I got what it takes.

Kuro sighs before putting his notes away for school. He gave his friend one of his serious faces.

Kuro: Well...Shouta...I'm not gonna say you don't have what it takes. But...If you can prove me wrong before I judge...What can you do to be an idol onstage? Can you dance? Sing? Anything? Because if you want to become an idol. You gotta work hard for it...

Shouta: Well...I could sing if I could try...

Kuro gave a smug grin.

Kuro: Hit me with your best shot...

Shouta made his own grin at him. He asked for it!

Shouta grabbed an mircophone and begin to sing!

I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong!
To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an I.V., baby could I bear~~~!
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here~~~!

Kuro watched with amazement filling his eyes. Shouta could really sing? Perverted idiot Shouta could sing...

I live for the applause, applause, applause~~~!
I live for the applause-plause!
Live for the applause-plause!
Live for the way that you scream and cheer for me~~~!
Applause, applause, applause~~~!

Kuro: (Whoa...)

Shouta continues to smile before singing again. Putting his heart into the rhythm.

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)!
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)!

Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!

I've overheard your theory "nostalgia's for geeks"!
I guess sir, if you say so, some of us just like to read!
One second I'm a Koons, then suddenly the Koons is me!
Pop culture was in art, now art's in pop culture in me~~~!

I live for the applause, applause, applause~~~!
I live for the applause-plause!
Live for the applause-plause!
Live for the way that you scream and cheer for me~~~!
Applause, applause, applause!

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)!
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)!

Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!

Touch, touch!
Make it real loud!

Shouta then prepared for the finale!!!

Kuro could've swore he could imagine it already. Shouta in a idol outfit, surrounded by millions of fans, all clapping and cheering for him. Showering him with praises and love.

Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)!

Kuro: (I was wrong...He proved to me that he could do it. Shouta...)

Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!
Make it real loud!
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch~~~!

Shouta finished the song and Kuro's imagination went away.

Shouta: So...What do you think?

Kuro: Well...I have the results...

Shouta: ???

Kuro: 10/10.

Shouta: AWESOME!!!

Kuro: You proved me wrong. Maybe you do have what it takes to be an idol.

Shouta: Yep! Just think about it! Me being famous!! Being in the spotlight and you could be my manager~!

Kuro:.....Don't push your luck.

Shouta: Hehe. Sorry. But...Thanks Kuro.

Kuro: For what?

Shouta: For helping me get this far. You're the bestest friend a guy could have!

Shouta gave him a hug leaving the smaller boy in shock before he returned the hug. He even allowed Shouta to pet his head...

He not sure why...but he enjoys it when Shouta does this...

Kuro: No problem...You too...

Shouta: Yosh~! Now let's go watch some anime porn~~~!

Kuro: Uh. No thanks...I think I'll pass...

Shouta: NANI?!! You are just no fun!

Kuro: Shut it...

Kuro then thought about it...Maybe Shouta's dream could come true...

But too bad it was only a dream... because how could he become an idol if he's dead....

It was only such a silly dream...

Too bad...he could've made it into the idol franchise if he was still around...

Kuro: Shouta...I love you so much...You meant everything to me and I was so foolish to not realize that...Thank you for making me feel alive again...
