~~~~Kouen~~~~

A movie with all of his siblings. It could be good if done correctly or it could be a complete disaster. Well, it wasn't like he had much choice. Al Thamen made it very clear that they had to do this.

If they could actually convince Koumei to get in front of a camera again then he would be surprised. He definitely wasn't going to force Koumei to do it, but if he agreed then Kouen would do the stupid movie. It would be amusing if Koumei and Kouha worked together again.

Kougyoku might not be ready for a movie yet, but pushing her would probably be a good way to get her started. She responded well to challenges.

Fine, they wanted to do a movie, he would do a movie.

~~~Koumei~~~

They were insane. They wanted him to act in a movie. He had made it extremely clear when they started working with Al Thamen that he wouldn't go in front of a camera again. He hated working with those stupid hair and makeup people. They always had to make his hair perfect, which went along the lines of a hair brush being yanked through the tangles and ripping out clumps of hair. Contrary to popular belief he isn't fond of pain. Then the stupid makeup. They had to cover up his "acne scars." People needed to get it through their heads that he had fucking freckles, not acne scars. They were freckles. The got more pronounced when he spends time in the sun. Those stupid perfectionists loved to insult his appearance. There was no way in hell he was going to go through all of that again and get in front of a camera again.

But they had threated Kouha and Kouen. He couldn't let them get to those two just because he didn't want to put up with a few insults and a little pain. He could deal with it if it meant his brothers were safe. He didn't want to, but he could.

~~~Kouha~~~

They were all idiots. They were making him focus on acting and doing a no-doubt stupid movie. He wanted to focus on modeling for a while. He told everyone that he was going to work on modeling again. He was so focused on singing recently that he hadn't modeled at all. This was ridiculous.

They were taking away any modeling jobs offered to him and wouldn't leet him do anything else until the movie was filmed. Screw them. This movie had better be filmed quickly. He had other things he wanted to do.

~~~Kougyoku~~~

A movie! They wanted her to be in a movie with all of her brothers. It would be so fun. She was just starting out and she was already doing a movie. She was determined to do well. She needed to work really hard so she wouldn't bring her siblings down. She wouldn't let her inexperience be the reason the movie didn't do well.

"The King is ready to be dressed now. His bath is finished. He needs his hair to be tended to as well."

"Your majesty, please lift your arms so I can finish dressing you." Kouha lifted his arms so the maid could pull the silk shirt on and button it up. She tied the sash around his neck and pulled his jacket on. Another maid brushed and styled his hair. "You are ready now, your majesty."

…

"Princess, please bear with it a moment longer. The corset always feels tighter while we are tying it. It will be easier to breathe in a moment."

"Why must I wear this uncomfortable thing? I have never needed to before."

"You are of age now, princess. You must look your best so you will attract a husband. Please stop fidgeting so I can finish your makeup."

The brushes over her face tickled. The rouge on her lips and cheeks felt out of place. The kohl and pigment on her eyes felt heavy. "Is this really necessary? Isn't my normal hair and makeup fine?"

"Princess, you must be more formal for such an event." The woman moved her hands through Kougyoku's hair, pulling part of it up and pinning it up with a golden pin. "Princess, put on those shoes and you will be done. Please stop fighting and just do as we ask. Your brother the King needs you to act as a pillar of support to the kingdom."

"I don't need you to tell me such things. I already know what is expected of me. I am going now."

Hello!

I'm really not sure how I feel about this story. Let me know what you think.

I'm glad I finally got it done though. I took me a long time to figure out how I wanted to write this story.
