october 25, year xxxx.

“I TOLD YOU TO TAKE CARE” ran haitani clicked his tongue while applying an ointment to his brother's wound, the latter rolled his eyes and didn't answered

“how's the hearing? did you win?” haruchiyo akashi or also known as sanzu asked before biting the apple on his hand

“of course, i did. what do you expect from me?” rindou haitani rolled up his sleeves until it reached his elbow

“damn, that's attorney rindou haitani for you!” sanzu smirked while teasing him, rindou grabbed the pen beside him and throw it to the pink haired male but he quickly avoided it

kakucho hitto entered the room and the first thing he saw is rindou getting treated by his older brother. he sighed and fixed his spec

“we have a performance later. you need to cover your wounds.” kakucho went to the bar counter while removing his black hand gloves

“your fans would die in worry when they see that wound” kokonoi hajime stuck out his tongue at rindou. he just woke up and that's the first thing he did

“what songs are we gonna perform?” rindou scratched his head and loosen his necktie

“just seven songs. maps and animals by maroon 5, insomnia by craig david, that's what i like by bruno mars, under the influence by chris brown, okay by chase atlantic and lastly, always be my baby by david cook.” ran replied while putting away the cottons that he used to clean rindou's wounds

that wounds that he got because of nearly getting shot. but he's lucky because the bullet missed and hit his arm instead of his chest

the gunman is probably paid by the rival of his client on the court, they probably paid the gunman to kill him after rindou and his client won the case

he's a lawyer. attorney rindou haitani. but he's not just a lawyer, he's also a part of a band called bonten, he's their lead guitarist. he represents hades; the greek god of underworld. but even being successful, he can feel that something is missing, there's still something that he don't have yet.

bonten band is a rock band that has greek mythology as their theme, they often performs on their own luxurious club once a week. they are known internationally not just because of their talents but because of every member's visual and achievements, hot bachelors indeed.

next, bonten's drummer, kokonoi  hajime. he's an architect at day, a drummer at night. he represents plutus; the greek god of wealth

then bonten's bass guitarist and lead vocalist, haruchiyo 'sanzu' akashi. he got sanzu as his stage name. he's a pilot and he represents poseidon; the greek god of the sea

then bonten's rhythm guitarist, kakucho hitto. he's a surgeon and he represents apollo; greek god of light

and last, the main vocalist of the band, ran haitani. a civil engineer and represents zeus; the greek god of the sky and the ruler of heaven.

their manager-- who can't manage them, manjiro 'mikey' sano. he's the true founder of bonten but decided to not to join and just be the manager. he's a mechanical engineer and represents ares; the greek god of war

they are all billionaires in age that ranges from 24-28. that's why many women wants to date them and hoping to catch their interest, but surprisingly, until now, no one could catch their attention even just their eyes

time had passed. it's the time of their performance on the arena, a company paid them to perform six songs for their fans.

they are already in position underground, they waited for their platform to lift up before they start to play.

“baby, i'm preying on you tonight.
hunt you down eat you alive
just like animals, animals
like animals-mals”

ran started as the main vocalist. they start to play their own respective instruments, the crowd starts to go wild, cheering for the band and vibing to the song

“you're like a drug that's killing me
i cut you out entirely
but i get so high when i'm inside you”

sanzu plastered a boyish smile after singing that verse, that made his fans go crazy.

“yeah, you can start over you can run free
you can find other fish in the sea
you can pretend it's meant to be
but you can't stay away from me”

unlike sanzu who shows flirty expressions, rindou prefers to show serious expressions that his stans said looks 'sexy' on him

ran sang the chorus then they followed until they finished the song. the next song is maps by maroon 5, then next that's what i like by bruno mars, they took a break quickly before going back to performing

and now, they are performing under the influence by chris brown.

“fuckin' robitussin
i don't know why this shit got me lazy right now, yeah” kakucho started

you covered your ears when the girls started to scream like crazies. you sighed, mitsuri and emma looked at you and signalled you to just enjoy the band's performance, you rolled your eyes and nodded

you're not a fan of bonten, you're just here because of the girls-- mitsuri and emma. but they are right, you need to enjoy the music and their performance

“can't do percocets or molly
i'm turnin' one, tryna live it up here right, right, right”

the crowd went wild again after the main vocalist-- ran sang that part with his deep voice with a lazy seductive smirk on his lips

you felt your face warmed

“what the fuck y/n iguro? you blushed?!” you slapped your cheeks and cleared your throat

“baby, you can
ride it, ooh, yeah
bring it over to my place” rindou followed

your jaw dropped, you just realized the meaning of the song. and honestly, you're not ready for that.

and all suddenly, when you looked up to the stage again, you met someone's purple eyes. and for some reason you can't look away

“and you be like, "baby, who cares?"
but i know you care, bring it over to my place. you don't know what you did, did to me, your body lightweight speaks to me” rindou sang sexily while still making an eye contact to you

in the midst of the crowd, he spotted you.

you blushed and forced yourself to look away, you felt embarrass for no reason. you fan yourself because you suddenly feels hot

“ugh! this isn't me” you mumbled and bit your lower lip

you kept watching and vibing to the band while avoiding eye contact to rindou. until they reached the last song

always be my baby.

and this time, none of them will play instruments because all of them are singing. the lights starts to focus on them as they scattered to the different corners of the stage to get close to their fans

and you just wanna run away when rindou went on the side where you are. emma and mitsuri with the other girls starts to scream again because of romantic excitement

you stiffened on your place when your black-yellow eyes met his purple one, again. it's like, he doesn't wanna let you go the way he stared at your eyes

“he's looking at me!”

“no! it's me!”

you heard the girls behind you arguing but you're too lost at rindou's eyes to care about them

“we were as one, babe, for a moment in time, and it seemed everlasting, that you would always be mine” koko's fans sings with him

“now you want to be free, yeah, so i'm letting you fly. cause i know in my heart babe” kakucho signalled the fans to sing the next lyrics

“our love will never die, no” the fans understood their assignment

“you'll always be a part of me, i'm part of you indefinitely. girl, don't you know you can't escape me, ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby”

your heart beat went wild after rindou sang that part while still not breaking the eye contact between you two. your put your hands on your chest to feel your heart

“what's happening to me?.... why... why do i feel like i know him from the very start?” you asked yourself

while looking at rindou, you can feel yourself longing for him. but why? unbeknownst to you, rindou feels the same.

“i ain't gonna cry, no, and i won't beg you to stay
if you're determined to leave, girl, i will not stand in your way” sanzu closed his eyes while singing to feel the song more

“but inevitably, you'll be back again, cause you know in your heart, babe, our love will never end, no” ran went on rindou's side while singing only to see you too

and there's something building up inside him that he don't know so he brushed it off.

“and we'll linger on, time can't erase a feeling this strong. no way, you're never gonna shake me, ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby”

rindou is just stopping himself from going down to stage to go at you. because first of all, this is the first time he met you, but he feel like he's been waiting for you for all of his life that he wants to embrace you into a hug

sanzu and the others spotted you too in the crowd. and just like ran, they felt something inside them building up, especially on sanzu.

sanzu saw the eye contact between you and rindou, and for unknown reason, he felt jealous.

the performance ended, and bonten went directly to their hotel to take a rest. but on their way there, they can't stop thinking about you, they just don't know that all of them are thinking about you

on the other side, you are thinking about them too.

“so, bonten charmed you huh? you're a fan of them, now?” senju asked, you're with her, hinata and yuzuha. emma and mitsuri already go home, shinobu is with giyu

“uhm, maybe?” you watched your pet snake crawling on your arm, he's kaburamaru, a snake that you found on your garden

“i know their manager. and guess what? they are all single! do you want me to set you on a date with any of them? who do you want?” senju smirked, hina at yuzuha nodded in agreement

“err, i'm not ready to settle down or commit, yet. i don't even have a time for myself” you sighed, being a doctor is really not easy but everytime you save lives, you can tell that all of the hardships are worth it

“you need to try and date someone” hinata said, trying to convince you

“but don't you think i'm out of bonten members' league” you placed kaburamaru on your neck, and laid back on the backrest of the sofa

“what do you mean? you're pretty and professional, y/n! if i'm not dating takashi, i swear, i'd go and date you” you all chuckled at yuzuha

time passed and it's already midnight, you're on your apartment, senju and the other girls are already gone. you sighed because you can't sleep

you sat up and about to stand, but your head suddenly hurts. you frowned and went to kitchen to drink a water and drink med to stop the ache

but even after drinking water and med, the aching didn't stop

“then... in another life, i would want to meet you... attorney rindou haitani.”

you're shock that you heard a voice inside your head, but what shook you more was, because it was your voice

“rindou haitani?...”

rindou was speeding on the road, driving his mclaren. his grip on the steering wheel was tight that veins are already popping on his arms

he's driving fast but he don't know where he's going. but all he knows is, he's coming home.

“y/n iguro... who are you?”

rindou sighed and decided to stop on the roadside, he parked his car and went off. he stated at the dark sky with moon and shining stars

“are we looking at the same sky right now, y/n?” he whispered to the wind

“we are.”

his eyes widen, he immediately looked beside him, only to see you, looking at the sky too.

and suddenly, he felt relieved.

“promise me that we'll meet each other again, dra. y/n iguro.”

“i promise”

“you fulfilled your promise” rindou walked towards you slowly, you looked at him and bit your lower lip

“of course. i told you didn't i, i want to meet you again, attorney rindou haitani.”

“then, let's continue what we've started thousand years ago, dra. y/n iguro”

he held your cheeks and pulled you into a kiss. and rindou realised that it's you who's he is waiting for all of his life.

he's now finally home. you're finally at peace.

the missing part is now filled.

“and then we continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever.”  — stephenie meyer, twilight : breaking dawn part two
