Chapter 1 - How'd I get myself into this?!

"Augh this is the worst day ever!" I groan to myself as I continue to ride the painfully slow train over to Tokyo.

I'm Rin Kagene. Fresh out of college and having no hope whatsoever finding a job. I've been through so many interviews and all failed miserably. I gave up trying to find a job in Hokkaido, so my parents wanted me to go over to Uncle's place in Tokyo to try and find work there.

The train's so crowded though! It's hard enough to breathe with all these peoples' chests and backs in my face. A high school girl was fidgeting around next to me trying to get more space.

It's already really crowded! Stop moving! It's only making it worse!

It was then that I noticed that she wasn't just moving to get some room but... A guy was molesting her! I catch a glimpse of her face, and she looks ready to cry. Her eyes meet with mine, pleading for help. I look around and see that no one else seems to be noticing her discomfort. I lean over to her and whisper in her ear that I'll help her.

That bastard won't get away with this! ... But what if I get attacked too?! Argh there's no time to think about such things! I need to help her!

I look for the hand that's awkwardly fumbling with the girl's skirt. I maneuver myself around, trying to get a better look at who it is. But I can't see who the hand belongs to. I can see he's wearing a very bright neon orange wristband. If I grab his hand, I'll find out who it is...

I reach out and try to grab the pervert's arm.

"Stop that!" I yell as I grab his arm.

"What the hell are you doing?!"

Wait what? Just as I blurted out for the pervert to stop, another man's voice yelled out at the exact same time.

"I saw what you were doing!" I heard the man speak from the other side of the girl.

"Damn you... That hurts!" I see the man, who was standing behind the girl, has his arm twisted behind him by another man. His face contorted into a scowl. The other passengers were muttering.

Well thank goodness someone else noticed and helped her! My heart rejoiced that at least one man knows justice. I was snapped out of my thoughts when a voice screamed in my ear, "Hey you!"

I look around and see a very handsome man. Gosh he's hot! His blond locks and stunning blue eyes and amazingly good smell of bananas… I almost forgot everything around me. Wait, he looks like he's glaring at me. Why?

"Could you let go of my hand?" He says in an annoyed tone of voice.

"Huh?"

"I said get off."

"What?" I look down wondering what he was talking about. Wait a minute... That isn't a neon orange wristband. The hand I grabbed is wearing a classy wristwatch.

"You got the wrong guy!"

I gasp, "I'm so sorry!" I drop his hand as the train stops and pulls into the station.

"Goddammit..." He mutters to himself as he steps off the train with the pervert's arm in his grip. Although hot, he doesn't have to be so rude. It ruins his good looks.

"Thank you so much!" I hear a voice behind me and realize it was the girl who was being molested just a minute ago.

"I wasn't the one who caught the criminal..."

The girl smiles meekly as I realize this was my station and get off. "Take care of yourself!" I tell her as I watch the train leave with her in it.

I start walking around the station trying to find the exit and spot the guy who stopped the pervert back there.

"Excuse me!" I call out to him.

"What do you want?" He says as he notices me running toward him. He doesn't look happy. But I guess he still is kinda hot. Oh Rin what are you thinking?!

"I wanted to say thank you and..." I start to say while bowing. He looks really irritated at my presence, but I want to apologize for getting the wrong man.

"I didn't think I'd be accused of being a pervert," he says annoyed.

"I'm really sorry! I just reached out for a hand without looking!" I apologize to him.

"Be more careful when accusing people of being criminals next time," he says and then walks away from me.

I watch him walk away and sigh. I can't believe I messed up and especially in front of a handsome guy like that too!

He then turns to look at me over his shoulder and says, "You're a feisty one." He snorts and then continues walking.

What a jerk! Feisty?! Is that a bad thing?! I sigh again. He knows how to stand up for what's right, but he's so arrogant!

Ah so this is what Tokyo's like.

The high rise buildings surround me once I step out of the train station. Everything here is so big! And there seems to be a lot of pollution too. This is my first time in Tokyo. I've lived in Hokkaido all my life, and I never once imagined that I would be here trying to get a job. There are so many people here too! It's really crowded and busy, but I guess I expect that since it's noon-ish.

I get a text from Uncle a little while later telling me his address and also to run some errands. Great now I have to go the grocery store, and I don't even know my way around here! After trying to get directions to the nearest market, I look over the list of things Uncle wanted.

It says...

Fenugreek, nigella seed, cardamom...

What are all of these items? They can't be food can they? With the list on my phone in hand, I try looking around for the items. I head to the produce section to try and find the fenugreek.

As I was looking around, I accidentally bump into a man. "I'm sorry!"

The man, average height with light green hair, doesn't say anything back. He doesn't look happy. Oh but maybe he knows where I can find all of this food.

"Um, do you know where I can find something-greek?"

"Something-greek?"

I show him the list on my phone, and he gives an exasperated look. "That's a spice. You're in the wrong section."

"Oh fenugreek is a spice?" I asked questioningly to the man who seems to know a lot about this.

"You don't even know what you're buying? Weirdo."

"Excuse me?!" Man why is everyone being so rude to me today!

"The spice section is over there," he says with a sigh and walks briskly towards where he pointed earlier. I follow suit. He's so blunt, but he must be a nice person since he's helping me.

We get to the spice isle, and I find everything I am looking for. However, everything is on the top shelf!

"Um..." I start to speak up until the man cuts me off.

He sighs, "Geez you need help with everything!" He takes whatever I need off the shelves and tosses them into my basket without being asked.

"Thank you for helping me," I bow politely.

"Yeah, yeah." And with that he walked away.

Geez why is everyone so mean in Tokyo? Well, at least I got everything I needed. Now I need to get back to Uncle.

I walk from the market to Uncle's place. I was expecting a residential neighborhood, but I am walking in the shopping district. I walk around and come to the address I'm looking for. A sports bar? It looks like an average sports bar with neon lights around the door way. I think I got the wrong address...

Someone then spoke behind me. "You're not going in?"

I turn around and see another man with short blue hair and big eyes standing behind me.

"I think I have the wrong address." I tell him, but he looks over to my phone and says that I actually am at the right place.

No way, does Uncle live here?

"I'm looking for Kaito Shion," I explain.

"You mean Kai? He should be inside," he tells me.

He knows my uncle? He looks friendly and urges me into the bar before I could protest. He opens the door, and I walk inside, pushed by his enthusiasm.

As I walk inside, I see how fancy it is. Wow! I've never been to sports bars like this, and there's a huge TV! I look around in awe until the guy who pushed me in yells towards the back of the bar.

"Hey Kai. There's someone here to see you!"

A man's head looks out from behind the counter and beams brightly when he sees me. He's got dark blue hair and was holding a glass of ice cream in one hand.

"Are you... Rin?" he asks me.

"Uncle Kaito?" I ask back.

"I knew it was you, Rin! It's nice to see you!" he replies smiling.

The guy who led me in asks if we knew each other which uncle replies that I'm a distant relative from Hokkaido. Uncle then urges me to sit down. I look at what Uncle was wearing and am wondering if he really is a CEO at his company as mom said he is. He looks like any ordinary guy wearing a casual outfit.

I give him the things he asked for from the supermarket. As if reading my mind, he says running this sports bar is just his hobby while his employees run his company. Uncle acts like a slacker. Could he really be the president of his own company? Well I guess there are many different types of leaders.

Uncle stood behind the counter facing me as the blue haired guy sits next to me. He introduces himself saying he is Mikuo Hatsune. He works as a comedian.

Then Uncle says to me, "There are a few people I'd like you to meet. You came here to find a job right?"

I nod, and then two customers come into the bar. Uncle beckons them to come over, and they walk towards us. They have a certain air around them... They look successful.

Is this possibly a job interview? Wow Uncle moves things fast! The first person Uncle introduces is a man with long, eggplant colored hair who moves elegantly. He's wearing a suit and has a nice smile. He's a lawyer who went by the name of Gakupo Kamui.

A lawyer! How am I supposed to work for a lawyer?!

The second man was introduced, and he was wearing a white shirt and had nice blond locks. He was holding a tulip as he introduced himself to me. His name was Leon and works as a screenwriter in the entertainment industry.

"The Entertainment Industry?" I ask. "What would I be helping you with?"

"Oh just support. I need someone to support me when I'm writing out scripts." Leon replies back to me coolly.

Well that sounds like an easy job. Supporting a screenwriter, I wonder what else there might be.

"Well," Uncle says, "I've introduced you to two of them so far. And the others..."

"Sorry I'm late!" A man said as he walks into the bar.

"I told you not to be late Gumo," Uncle looks at him sternly.

"I had to help a weird girl at the market," he sighs, "so I couldn't get my things done and..."

"You're the man from earlier!" I blurt out as I see his familiar face and tousled green hair.

The man looks at my face, and his jaw drops in surprise. "You're the one from the market!"

Yep it's definitely that rude guy from the market. I'm sure of it.

"Oh you two have met?" Uncle asks as the man stares at my face for a long time. Gumo asks Uncle if I am the person that they were talking about, and Uncle nods. Gumo's jaw drops even more. What an interesting reaction, but I definitely do not want to be hired by this guy.

Uncle introduces him to me as Gumo Megpoid. He is a physics teacher at an all-girls high school. So if I work with him, would I be a teacher's assistant?

Uncle says there is one more person. A slender man then walks slowly through the door.

"Oh, there you are Len." Uncle says as the man walks over to us. On closer inspection he looks like...

"YOU!" Both the man and I shout at each other.

Everyone looks surprised at our sudden outburst at each other. The others ask how we already know each other to which Len explains I was accusing him of being a pervert.

Just then Leon was laughing, "Len, a pervert?! I can totally imagine him being accused of that!"

The other guys agree with Leon too.

"Shouldn't you be talking about yourself Leon?" Len says, suddenly holding a banana in his hand. Where did he get that from?!

"You're the real pervert, changing girlfriends every week!" He continues.

"Excuse me! Look you," I interrupt them and look at the guy so-called Len and say, "It was an honest mistake so could you just forgive me already!"

We start bickering but stop when Uncle interrupts us. "Well this makes introductions easier. Rin, please meet Len Kagamine. He's a scientist researching on a new drug. He may be a jerk towards you, but I've known him for a very long time. He's actually a very kind person. Please get along with him and don't tear this bar down with your bickering."

Uncle smiles at the both of us, and then announces to me quietly in my ear that Len is the man that I have to work with.

"Wait so I don't even get to choose who my boss is for my future job?! Why can't I pick the others?" I begin to complain, "Uncle who are these people?!"

"Did I not tell you already? I was once their coach for baseball. We all go back a long time." Uncle smiles while his eyes show him reminiscing of the old days.

"Yea we go way too far back that I'm getting sick of seeing your face every day!" Mikuo teased.

I start to argue with Uncle because I should have the right to choose who I want to work with until his stern look cuts me off mid sentence.

"Beggars can't be choosers. And you want a job right?" Uncle whispers into my ear. "Plus he won't be your boss. I just want you to help him with his problem, and then I'll find you a job."

"Seriously!?" I squeak as he mentioned giving me a job. All I have to do is help him with his problem, and then I'll get a job. It should be simple right? Uncle nods and then looks over to Len who was eating pasta.

"Alright, what do I help him with?" I ask Uncle, eager to know how this will help me get a job. Uncle tells me that it's best if I ask the man himself.

I take a deep breath and then walk over to where Len was sitting with the rest of his friends. I tap on Len's shoulder, and it seems that I just interrupted him as he was watching some sports channel on the big TV.

"What do you want?" He asks sort of harshly. Geez this guy is harsh all the time isn't he?

I muster up all the energy I have not to slap him and say through gritted teeth, "Look, Uncle told me that I have no choice but to help you with your problem, so let's try to get along okay?"

After hearing what I told him, he takes a glance at Uncle who was behind me and had a face of shock written all over. Wow, another jaw dropping freak. What next?

"No way, is this monster really the one who's going to help me?" He exclaims in both shock and disgust.

"Hey I'm not that bad of a person! And who are you calling a monster!?" I yell at him. He's seriously getting on my nerves now even when I try to be nice.

Uncle looks at the both of us and sighs as if that's his answer to Len's question. Len just snorts back at Uncle and returns his attention to the TV which was featuring a baseball game.

I exhale loudly and just keep to my thoughts as I sit near the counter waiting for the game to finish. Men are such weird creatures, getting absorbed in a baseball game and ignoring me. Even Uncle was sharing drinks with the other guys who were introduced to me earlier and sitting right in front of the TV.

After a few minutes, Len gets up and sits next to me. He doesn't seem to be annoyed anymore.

"Alright, so what's your name?" He asks me.

I look at him questioningly. He doesn't even know my name? He forgot it in such a short amount of time! "Rin Kagene." I tell him, slightly surprised at how horrible his memory and hearing are. Well at least he doesn't seem irritated at my presence anymore. Is this the power of sports shows on men?

"I see. Well Kai says you're the only one who can help me, so I guess there's no escaping destiny."

Destiny? What the hell is he talking about?

"You're pretty lucky you know," he continues, "you should be honored since you can't help anyone else other than me. I believe only I can handle your feisty-monster spirit."

He winks at me. He's joking right?! Geez... "Just get on with what I have to do for you already." I say, ignoring what he said earlier. I wanna slap that smirk off his face so badly.

This is for my future career! Get a hold of yourself Rin! I can't get mad at this jerk.

Len clears his throat. It looks like he's hesitating. In my head, I think about why I'm here, and why I couldn't do something else. Uncle is so mean!

I sigh, and then Len starts to speak, "Before I tell you, I wanna talk to the guys first."

I was left dumbfounded. Why won't he tell me!? My job!

A few seconds later, I hear everyone yelling at Len. I wonder what happened. I look over at them and see that they were looking past me and at Uncle. They all demanded an explanation as to why I could only help Len with his problem and not anyone else.

"Sorry guys, but she chose me. And plus this is important business as you all know," Len smirks. Oh how I wonder if this is really going to be all right.

"No way Kai! Rin won't be able to stand one day with him!" I hear Gumo say.

"Will she be alright with him?" Gakupo asks no one in particular. Is what I'm getting into that bad?

Leon winks at me, "She should be helping me. Plus, she would be a good toy."

"Aww Len, I want her to help me." Mikuo whines.

"Enough complaining right Kai? She chose me got it?" Len tries to end the bickering but only makes it worse.

And when did I say that I picked you out of my own volition!

I couldn't stand all of these loud voices shouting everywhere so I yell out, "Can someone please tell me what is it that I'm needed for!?"

Everyone's voices fall silent after that. All of their gazes avoid mine. What? Did I say something weird?

I sigh again to myself and then Uncle breaks the silence. "Alright Len tell her already. It's about time she finds out."

My gaze turns towards Len wondering what he was going to say. He hesitates just a little bit. Is what I'm going to be asked that difficult to say? I look at Uncle. He may be mean, but he wouldn't let me go through with something that's impossible for me to do right?

"Rin," I heard Len say and turn back around. His deep blue eyes are filled with some sort of… loving emotion. But he finally remembers my name! What's gotten into him though? First he was arguing with me in this hateful voice and now his tone is sweet?! This guy has major mood swings.

"Excuse me?" I ask totally dumbstruck.

Len walks towards me. His steps are graceful and all irritation I felt towards him melts and is replaced with confusion. But god does he look hot as he was walking towards me...

Argh Rin what are you thinking?!

I snap out of my fantasies and ask, "Are you drunk Len?"

He ignores my question and looks at me seriously. He actually looks pretty hot when serious. Oh what am I thinking?! Stop it already!

"Miss Rin Kagene," he starts to say slowly, "Marry me."

Alright so that's the first chapter of the new story! I know there are a few too many characters, but they appear later on in the story too. Sorry if it's a little confusing!
