"You can sleep here and I'll sleep in the living room's couch." Shinichi said.

"No, I can sleep in the living room's couch." She said.

"C'mon! It's not comfortable sleeping there." He smiled.

Shinichi gets a blanket and some clothes, he's about to open the door.

"Shinichi..." she calls him.

He looks at her direction.

"Yes?"

"Can I borrow a clothes? I need to change."

"Yeah. You can borrow mine if you don't mind?" He chuckled.

"Thank you." She softly said.

Shinichi smiled at her and then left his room. He went to the restroom and change his clothes after changing he headed to the living room and lay down on the couch. He can't stop smiling because Shiho Miyano is his celebrity crush. He didn't tell Kaito nor his friends. He got excited when Shuichi calls him about getting a lead role and Having Shiho as the leading lady. It's a dream come true to spent time with his celebrity crush and to know her behind the camera. He felt asleep while smiling.

The Next Day...

Yukiko knocks on her son's door.

"Shin chan?" She calls out.

Shiho slowly open her eyes, she wakes up and someone is still knocking the door. She gets up from bed and look in front of a mirror. Her hair isn't messy and she looks gorgeous like always. She opened the door and see a woman who have a blue eyes, long wavy light brown hair, she looks pretty. Shiho assume that's Shinichi's mother.

"Oh.. sorry. did I interrupt your beauty sleep?" Yukiko asked.

"No. Not at all." She smiled.

Yukiko stares at her.

'She's a drop dead gorgeous in real life...' Yukiko thoughts.

Yukiko realized she's been staring at her for too long.

"I'm sorry for staring but you're so pretty in person." Yukiko compliments.

Shiho blushed and smiled.

They went in the dining area.

"Just sit on chair. Let me do my thing." Yukiko smiled.

"But I can help." Shiho said.

"No sweetie. You're a visitor so you have to just chill and wait." She winks.

Shiho obeyed her and sit on the chair. She watched Yukiko preparing for their Breakfast.

"My husband Yusaku's on the film set now, he's a really hard working man." Yukiko started a conversation.

"Even my Husband is a director and I am a retired actress, Shinichi didn't use us to get in the industry, he worked hard and he always auditioned even he gets rejected."

"His hard work will pay off." Shiho smiled.

"I really hope so. He deserves it." Yukiko said.

"He's doing good in our shoot, he's amazing and I bet he can win awards." She smiled.

Shinichi suddenly walks in and see them talking. The girls looks at him.

"Good Morning Shin chan!" His Mother happily greeted.

"Good Morning." Shiho softly said.

Shinichi smiled. He sit down next to Shiho.

"Good morning Shiho." He said.

Yukiko looks at them.

"And good morning too Mom." He smiled.

The 3 of them started eating their breakfast afterwards Shinichi went to a store because Yukiko asked him to buy some ingredients. Shiho and Yukiko are on the living room chatting and they're laughing. They shared a funny stories and Yukiko shared alot of Shinichi's embarrassing moments.

"So Aunt... is it really real that he never had a girlfriend?" Shiho asked straight away.

"Yeah. I've always tell him he should start dating but he told me he wanted to pursue his first love which is acting. Lots of girls here likes him because he's really a gentleman and charming."

"I agree Aunt. He's really a gentleman. He even apologized to me while doing a love scene in our film."

They both laughed.

"He's really just like his Dad. I'm so lucky I have a son like him. I am so proud of him." Yukiko smiled.

Shiho feels envy. Growing up without a Mother in her side is hard. Yukiko looks at her because she's been quiet. Shiho noticed Yukiko is staring at her. She just smiled at Yukiko.

After spending time with Yukiko, Shinichi and Shiho headed to the film set. They are filming overnight because the director wants to rush the film as early as they can. They need to do alot edit after filming and it will be the country's representative at the Cannes so the director are pressuring them to do their best. Shiho and Shinichi are having fun on set. When the camera is off they're goofing around with other actors. They're posting some videos of them on their social media. They're always trending and their fanbases gain more.

"Two more weeks of filming and it's done." Shiho said.

The two of them are alone in her dressing room sitting next to each other.

"I will miss filming with you." He said.

Shiho smiled.

"Me too." She said.

He sighed.

"Hey." She said while looking at him.

He looks at her.

"We will be touring around." She smiled.

"Around Japan?" He asked.

"Yeah and in other countries to promote our film." She said excitedly.

"That's nice. We will have more time together." He smiled at her.

Shiho blushed.

"Yeah." She gives him a flirty smiled.

"Shiho I wanna say something." He said.

"Oh? What is it?" She asked.

He looks nervous but he's managing to smile at her. He fake cough and swallowed, he looks directly in her eyes. Shiho stared at him smiling.

"I—" he was cut off when his phone suddenly rings.

He looks apologetic to Shiho, she just nods and smile like telling him it's alright to answer the call first. He stand up answer the call.

"Hello Mom?" He said.

Shiho is watching him.

"What? No way! How could that happen? Is dad ok?" He asked worriedly.

"Alright after filming I'll go home to see you. Love you Mom. Bye." He said and hang up the phone.

"What happened?" She asked.

He looks at her and he sit down.

"My Dad is so stressed and he collapsed after knowing that the film their working on got a disapproval of the boss so that means it's not going to release in public even they're almost done. Their hardwork becomes nothing."  He said sadly.

"Oh... I'm so sorry to hear that." She said.

He smiled at her.

"Everything will be alright." She smile assuring him.

The director's assistant calls them to continue filming. After hours of working, Shinichi went home straight. Shiho went to the boss' office. Jin is sitting on his chair and smiling at her. She's standing in front of him.

"Nice to see you here Shiho." He smiled.

"Why did you disapproved Mr Yusaku Kudo's work?" She straightforwardly asked.

Her eyes is cold as ice staring at him. Jin looks at her and laughs.

"The whole film is such a mess. It's not that good. And I also think it will flopped so why would I waste time and money in that pathetic project?" He said.

"You just hate me, don't you? That's why you're making everyone miserable who got close to me isn't it?" She asked not giving any emotion in front of him.

"So you're doing this for that Shinichi?" He asked.

"Do something." She commands.

"Is that how you beg when you want to get something?" He said.

They look in each others eyes.

"Please Daddy."
