The Car Imposter
“Honeys—I am HOoome!' Van announced, arms outstretched as he entered his home.
“Oh, we know,” Aiddie and Reiji replied in unison both with a turn of their head to acknowledge Van as he quickly put his spoils away.
“Look,” Aiddie said, pointing at the TV as Reiji scooted over on the couch to give Van room to sit. He plopped down between his lovers,
glimpsing over at the screen with a tilt of his head.
On the scroller flashing in bold red text was “Breaking News: Car Imposter! Reiji Kotobuki's Car Stolen!?”
“You'd figure there was more pressing news in the world!” Aiddie murmured through a spoonful of sorbet.
“Oh? So my car is not important?” Reiji pouted.
“I mean... it's fine! It's safe!” Reiji continued.
“The public doesn't know!” he ended dramatically.
“News is fast. I just got home.” Van mused out loud, crossing his arms and leaning back into the cushion.
“There's no real substance to this news; I bet any details will be all for tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow?” the guys asked in unison.
“I am going to buy ALL the magazines!” Aiddie exclaimed, pumping a fist into the air.
“Hmm... you don't suppose we will get in trouble for this, do you?” Van asked Reiji.
“In hindsight... It may not have been a good idea.” Reiji replied, “We both should call our agencies.”
The idols simultaneously pulled out their cell phones and dialed their bosses. Aiddie muted the TV as she listened to two conversations that melded into
one as per usual when it involved both the heads of the competing entertainment agencies.
There was one thing that was clear after the phone calls—that it would be up to them to mitigate the situation that they created.
12 hours later...
Aiddie disguised as her partners' manger collected and bought off all the magazines she could manage near them with the help of her driver, Mika.
As she attempted to stop the spread of the information, the guys got ready to do their part to clean the mess up.
Once her goals were complete, Aiddie watched the boys on a TV in one of the rooms of the studio that would be airing a segment featuring her partners.
In the room were legit managers and staff from both Shining and Raging agency. She was sure both Shining and Raging were present too,
somehow, someway as they always just conveniently seemed to be.
The show began with the boys apologizing for the misunderstanding and the host pressing for clarification. Why was he in the car? What was he
doing with it? How Reiji felt with someone else driving his car? Both of the idols managed to answer in a satisfactory way, avoiding even more questions that could reveal more than they were.
After the rounds of questions Reiji once again apologized but then switched it up on the fans.
“This is not how we planned for you all to find out, but you did catch us!”
“We are actually workin' on a collaborative project. A vlog!” Van announced.
The studio collectively clapped and cheered.
“I hope all of my ladies and gents will tune in,” Reiji said with a wink.
“Look out for me my angels,” Van said blowing a kiss at the crowd.
And so... the media hubbub was shut down. A new project emerged in wake of a possible scandal.
Aiddie knew the fans got a kick out of the new development as much as she did. She also knew that there were probably fans that were still speculating as fans do. Luckily for her, she has not been caught. She wondered briefly what would happen if that truth was unleashed.

That pandora's box remained closed. It was best not to think of it.
The End.
A/N: I wrote this a while back. Finally gotten around to typing it. It was a pain because I couldn't read some of it for one. For two, a part of it was notes and not actually anything going on in the fanfic that I had to fill in myself when I got to that part. Guess which part—haha. I don't remember everything about this fic, but I think I remember the basic thought process for it and that I didn't make this with much seriousness. This is probably the last thing I'm posting for the year.. and I haven't been that productive in terms of writing and churning things out. We will see what happens with the new year. I always hope I'd post more and have more ideas and I'd get to share things and talk about it. In any case, If you got here thanks for reading.
