Title: Ichiban wa suki desu yo!

Chapter Two

“You gonna stick around?” Ohno asked as everyone was being called to the middle of the dance floor.

“Hai.” Kimi answered with a nod.

“you should come for dinner then.” Ohno said.

“Where, your house?” Kimi asked curiously. Ohno gave a nod.

“Ohno-san!” Jun called irritably. Ohno whirled around and looked at Jun rather nervously. He turned back to Kimi to see her grinning.

“Duty calls…But, dinner? My house?” Ohno asked, beginning to walk backwards towards everyone else. Kimi smiled with a nod. He smiled and nodded in acknowledgement, quickening his pace as he did so, causing him to stumble slightly. He looked at Kimi with an embarrassed smile before turning his back on her and running to his assigned position. He pointed at Yuri with a wink before facing towards the mirror. Yuri gave him a nervous smile before turning to Kimi and put up 2 fingers excitedly. Kimi smiled widely and did the same.

Kimi watched the rest of their practice with much enthusiasm, clapping to the beat, throwing peace signs at her students and even imitating some dance moves to make her students laugh. This of course caught most of Arashi’s attention. Aiba giggled just as the juniors would, Sho grinned and pretended not to notice, Nino would smile and shake his head, Ohno smiled toothily before putting an even more amount of effort into his steps and even Jun cracked a smiled or two.

As the juniors filed to the sides to let Arashi perform alone for that assigned portion of the song, Kimi stepped over to them hands behind her back.

She congratulated most of them as she passed, patting them on the head and nudging them playfully. Finally she halted next to Yuri as the song began to come to its end.

“You did great Yuri-kun, practically as good as Ohno-san!” Kimi smiled. Yuri looked at her, eyes about to pop out from excitement.

“Hontou? Ah~ arigato sensei…demo, I don’t think I could ever be as good as Ohno-sama.” Yuri said bashfully.

“You won’t.” a voice said. Kimi and Yuri turned to see Sho walking towards them. Arashi had disbanded, the song having finally ended.

“You’ll be better.” Sho stated, clapping Yuri on the shoulder. Yuri flashed his usual happy smile.

“Arigato, Sakurai-sempai!” Yuri said excitedly before running off, probably to tell his friends what Sho had said.

Kimi smiled after Yuri for a moment before turning back to Sho.

“Looks like you got competition, ne Kimi-chan?” Sho said jokingly, referring to Yuri and his love for Ohno. Kimi laughed and shook her head.

“Well, clearly Yuri-chan wins ne? I mean, he IS only two spaces away from Ohno-sama.” Kimi replied, pretending to be defeated.

“True…but if Ohno-sama is Yuri-chan’s ichiban, then who’s Ohno-sama’s ichiban, I wonder?” Sho said, a hand on his chin.

“Keep wondering.” Came Ohno’s voice. They both turned to look at him, startled by his sudden presence. Sho grinned and winked at Kimi before leaving.

“So, who is your ichiban, Satoshi-san?” Kimi asked playfully.

“I should be asking you that!” Ohno retorted.

“Oh, MY ichiban? Mm…” Kimi said, pretending to look away as if in deep thought,” well…Aiba-chan is Kawaii, ne? Demo, I think he’s a bit too tall for me…”

Ohno looked over at Aiba before putting his hand up, as if estimating how tall Aiba is.

“You’re right…Aiba-chan is kinda tall, ne?” Ohno said.

“Hai…I should look for someone a bit shorter.” Kimi suggested, pretending to talk to herself.

“What about Sho-kun?” Ohno suggested playfully.

“Nah…still too tall.” Kimi said.

“I guess Jun is out of the picture too, then. That leaves me and Nino” Ohno said.

“Nino’s in love with his DS…” Kimi said.

“Ah~ I guess you have to settle with me then, ne?” Ohno said, pointing to himself. Kimi smiled.

“I guess so.” She replied. They grinned at each other.

“Well, since I’m your ichiban then I guess I should make you mine too.” Ohno said. Kimi laughed and nodded.

“Iku.” Ohno said, gesturing to the door before adding,” ichiban.” Kimi gave a nod and gathered her things before following Ohno out the door.

“Hey, I just realized something.” Kimi announced as they walked together outside.

“Nani?” Ohno asked, looking over at her briefly.

“I’ve never been to your house before.” She stated.

“UN…you’re right…”Ohno said shortly.

“I hope your okaasan likes me.” She said, looking ahead of them.

“Why wouldn’t she?” Ohno asked, stopping. Kimi turned to look at him.

“Kimi-wa ichiban da YO!” Ohno exclaimed. At that he did a pose in the middle of the sidewalk. Kimi laughed and nodded.

“Hai! Ichibans da yo!” She replied, doing the same pose.
