After eating in the restaurant, I wanted to have a good rest and then go to the studio in the early morning, but I don't know why I couldn't fall asleep.
It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening. I was lying on the bed, staring out the window, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. After taking a shower, Naoki Nagayama went to stand on the balcony and watched the night view of Rome.
Rome is not a city that never sleeps like Tokyo. On such a summer night, except for some places in the city center, other places are already dark.
However, there are also some areas with bright lights and faint sounds of music and laughter.
The scene of "Roman Holiday" suddenly flashed through Nagayama Naoki's mind, and at the same time, he suddenly remembered that at 9 o'clock tonight, there seemed to be a boat party commemorating the movie under the Ponte Sant'Angelo bridge!
Thinking of this, his restless heart could no longer stay in the room. Nagayama Naoki gently opened the door, and then ran to Nakamori Akina's door
"Dongdongdong" "Mingcai, are you there?"
After a while, the door quietly opened a crack, and Akina's shy little face appeared from the door, hesitantly saying: "Didn't Naoki-san say that he wanted to rest?"
"I can't sleep," Nagayama Naoki asked directly at the door, "Has Ryoaki-san's seminar ended tonight?"
"Yeah" Nakamori Akina's voice became softer, and her eyes did not dare to touch Nagayama Naoki.
"So Akina," Nagayama Naoki quietly approached Akina at this time and whispered, "Let's sneak out and play!"
Nakamori Akina originally thought that Nagayama Naoki wanted to do something bad when he got closer, but suddenly heard this suggestion and was a little surprised:
"Eh?"
"Just like the princess in Roman Holiday! Sneak out!" Nagayama Naoki seduced, "Under the Sant'Angelo Bridge, there will be a boat party tonight just like in the movie!"
"Todoroki?" Akina's eyes lit up. She was also fascinated by this movie, so naturally she would not forget this filming location.
"Of course, I saw the sign today!" Nagayama Naoki was full of confidence, "How about it? Do you want to go together?"
"But what if Mina-san can't find us?" Akina Nakamori was still a little worried and didn't want to cause any trouble to the team because of herself.
"Be careful, you can leave a message for them at the front desk. That way, if Liang Ming-san and the others find out that you are not here and want to open the door, they will be able to get the news."
At this time, Nagayama Naoki was like a bad senior who abducted an elementary school girl to skip class. "In the message, it was written that I went to participate in the Naoki Award presentation with Nagayama Naoki!"
"Hey, is this okay?"
In any case, the Naoki Award is one of the most famous awards in Japan. It is understandable that Akina Nakamori wants to participate in such an award, even if it is online.
"Of course! If it is really discovered, I will warmly invite Akina-san to be a guest! Let Ryoaki-san give me a scolding!" Nagayama Naoki said, patting his chest.
"That's what we agreed upon, Naoki-san warmly invited us!"
Bombarded by Nagayama Naoki's sweet words, the innocent good boy Nakamori Akina finally agreed.
After changing into the dress for going out, Akina Nakamori, led by Naoki Nagayama, quietly followed the footsteps and walked through the corridor of the hotel.
Like a thief, try not to make a sound.
However, due to being too excited, my heartbeat was already speeding up at this time.
Leave a note at the front desk and tell your companion to give this note to the person in charge if they want to open the room.
Then, with a well-informed look on her face, the foreign lady at the front desk quickly walked out of the hotel.
Until she got into the taxi, Nakamori Akina felt her heartbeat pounding. However, seeing Nagayama Naoki next to her looking calm, Akina suddenly said:
"Naoki-san must have skipped class a lot in the past!"
"" Being said like this suddenly, Nagayama Naoki was still a little confused, "Why did you say that suddenly?"
"Otherwise, you always do bad things!" Mingcai Roududu had a wicked smile on his face, "Otherwise, how could he be so calm?"
This can't be tolerated. Are you actually spreading rumors?
"No, I was a good kid when I was in school! I didn't even skip class!"
“I don’t believe it”
Under the dim street lights, Rome seemed very quiet at night. The shops along the street had long been closed, leaving only the occasional passersby walking through the streets.
It was almost 9 o'clock when we arrived at Ponte Sant'Angelo, but it was very popular here. The lights were brightly lit under the sparkling river, and tourists who came to attend the boat party were waiting on the shore in twos and threes. It was noisy.
The atmosphere makes it feel like daytime here.
After getting out of the car, Nagayama Naoki took Akina's hand and walked towards the party venue on the boat. Nowadays, parties have become standardized, and naturally they have to pay a fee. Otherwise, where will the labor and food for the party come from?
Not to mention that in order to maintain order, special security personnel were hired.
If there were such security measures in "Roman Holiday", Princess Anne would definitely not be able to escape.
Under the soothing music, Nagayama Naoki led Akina into the party.
Looking at the participants dancing happily in the middle, Naoki Nagayama asked: "Can Akina know how to dance ballroom?"
"A little bit knowledgeable" Akina Nakamori has been studying classical ballet since she was a child, so she naturally has knowledge of other dances as well.
"Then I need Akina to teach me."
Naoki Nagayama smiled and pulled Akina onto the dance floor. He gently hugged Akina and started dancing to the rhythm of the music.
The dance floor was full of people dancing easily, people they knew and people they didn't know, and sometimes they would exchange dance partners. Laughter and laughter came from the surrounding seats. Snacks and drinks were also sold on the bar. As the number of people increased,
Make the party atmosphere more exciting.
"Didn't Naoki-san say that he can't dance?" Akina raised her head and looked at Naoki Nagayama, "Isn't it obvious that you can dance very well?"
"Of course there is no problem at this level," Nagayama Naoki said with a smile, "If the rhythm is faster, then Akina must be careful, maybe she will step on it."
"I will step back on you!" Akina leaned her head on Nagayama Naoki's chest and spoke back like a spoiled child.
The soft and soothing saxophone echoed under the Ponte Sant'Angelo, the waves of the Tiber River slapped the river bank from time to time, and the tourists partying on the boat whispered from time to time,
However, what Akina heard in her ears was Naoki Nagayama's steady heartbeat, which seemed to be gradually at the same frequency as her own heartbeat.
After the song ended, Nagayama Naoki and Nakamori Akina took a break at the bar next to them.
After ordering a cocktail, Naoki Nagayama suddenly had an idea in his head: "Aki Nao"
"Um?"
Akina Nakamori was eating a pretzel, a type of Roman specialty. Hearing this, he looked at Naoki Nagayama and said, "Nani?"
"In Rome, it seems that you can drink at the age of 16." Naoki Nagayama raised his glass to indicate to Akina.
Akina then reacted and was very excited: "Huh? That's what you say?"
"Yes"
Although the drinking age in Japan is 20 years old, most students will be exposed to alcohol to some extent in high school. Even if they can't go out to drink, no one will say anything if they drink secretly at home.
However, Akina has never drank openly and openly! When she went out before, there were staff accompanying her and they would not let Akina drink!
"Want to have a drink?" Naoki Nagayama said, "But there's only one drink!"
Akina Nakamori excitedly approached the menu next to Nagayama Naoki, glanced at it once or twice, and ordered one casually: "I want this!"
Nagayama Naoki asked the bartender for his order: "It's a good choice. Mojito is very suitable for summer drinking, and it's not too strong."
"Hahaha, I'm awesome, right?"
Akina Nakamori smiled happily. In fact, she didn’t even recognize the name on the wine list and just ordered one at random.
But at the same time, I also secretly made up my mind to learn English! Otherwise, I won’t even know how to order wine in the future!
After the mojito was served, the young alcoholic Akina immediately showed her talent. After taking a big sip, she imitated the old alcoholic and sighed: "Ah, the fatigue of the whole day is gone."
"Haha Akina, where did you learn this from?" Nagayama Naoki couldn't help laughing, "It's like a middle-aged alcoholic drinking."
"Of course it's in the TV show!"
As she took a sip of wine, the blush on Akina's face became more obvious, but she was very excited, "This wine is really delicious!"
While drinking, he chatted about everything that happened abroad. After drinking, he pestered Naoki Nagayama to dance on the dance floor.
Naturally, no agents came to capture the fugitive princess at this boat party, nor did they meet anyone who disrupted the order. As the music rhythm gradually accelerated, Naoki Nagayama and Akina Nakamori were both sweating profusely from dancing.
When the boat party ends, it is almost early in the morning.
"Naoki-san, are you going to the studio now?"
Akina Nakamori was walking on the quiet streets of Rome at night with a vanilla ice cream. She got it from the bar when the show was about to end. Naoki Nagayama also had a chocolate-flavored one.
"We must send Akina back first." Nagayama Naoki held Akina's hand, and the two of them walked as if they were crossing the road. "The award ceremony is at three o'clock in the morning, it will take a long time."
We were already some distance away from Ponte Sant'Angelo, the crowd gradually dispersed, and the streets of Rome became increasingly quiet. Naoki Nagayama and Akina were waiting for the arrival of a taxi at a street corner.
"Do you really not need me to accompany you Naoki-san at three in the morning?" Akina turned her face away, with a slight tiredness between her brows, but she still showed that she wanted to accompany her boyfriend.
"No, Akina is very hard during the day." Nagayama Naoki finished his ice cream in three mouthfuls. "Besides, I can sleep in tomorrow, but Akina still has to work tomorrow."
"Well, this moment is very important to Naoki-san." That makes sense, but I still want to go with my boyfriend.
"That's not as important as Akina," Naoki Nagayama comforted jokingly: "If Ryoaki-san finds out tomorrow, he might grab me by the collar and yell, 'Naoki Nagayama, you dare to abduct my family.
Akina sneaked out at night, hahaha"
"Haha" Nakamori Akina also laughed, "Yes, I even took Akina to the party! And let Akina drink!"
"Huh? Isn't this what Akina wants to drink?"
Naoki Nagayama looked at Akina Nakamori next to him, did he actually start spreading rumors in front of his face?
"No, she was tricked by Naoki-san! Akina is a good girl!" Akina smiled narrowly, with a cunning look on her face, "It's all Naoki-san's fault!"
"I didn't expect Akina to be such a person." Naoki Nagayama looked at his girlfriend next to him, as if he was meeting her for the first time.
"It's too late! Naoki-san is already my boyfriend!"
This reason is so powerful that Naoki Nagayama can’t say anything to refute it for a moment.
Under the dim light, Nakamori Akina's fair face seemed to be reflecting light. At this time, she glanced at Nagayama Naoki very proudly,
I have finished eating the vanilla ice cream on my hand, but there is still a little bit of cream left on my lips.
"Aki Naoki" Nagayama Naoki suddenly asked a question like this in a confused manner, "What did the ice cream just taste like?"
"Huh?" Akina Nakamori was a little strange and subconsciously pursed her lips, "It has a very delicious vanilla flavor."
"Well, I want to try it too." Nagayama Naoki turned around slightly and gently held Akina's hands.
"But I've already finished eating." Akina Nakamori was a little confused, "Naoki-san, do you want to go back and buy another one?"
"Isn't there a little more?"
"Eh?"
Nagayama Naoki hugged Akina's slender waist, approached Akina's cheek slowly and slowly, felt the girl's rapid breathing, and then gently moved forward
The soft touch of the two petals comes, accompanied by the faint smell of vanilla
“The vanilla ice cream is really delicious”
After succeeding, Nagayama Naoki held Akina's soft body in his arms and said with a wicked smile.
Nakamori Akina buried her head on Nagayama Naoki's chest, and wrapped her hands around Nagayama Naoki's waist. Through her clothes, she could feel the heat on Akina's cheeks.
After hearing her boyfriend's shameless words, Akina clenched her hands into fists and hit Nagayama Naoki twice on the back.
This damn guy, this is the first kiss!
After hailing a taxi and sending the shy Akina back to the hotel, Naoki Nagayama went directly to the studio.
When we arrived, it was already past two o'clock in the morning. There were only two staff members in the studio at this time, and Kuroki Yuta had arrived early.
"Thank you for your hard work, Yuta-san!" Naoki Nagayama handed over a bottle of cold beer, "Have you finished debugging it?"
"Hey, there's no problem at all!" Kuroki Yuta took a sip of beer and continued, "The awards ceremony has already started in Tokyo. We can start here when the signal is received."
"That's good. After the awards are over, we can go have a drink!"
"Hahaha, that's perfect!"
Kuroki Yuta happily agreed, and because of helping Nagayama Naoki, Tanaka Yoshiaki granted him the morning leave, so he could have a good sleep after drinking!
Seeing that it was already 2:30 in the morning, Naoki Nagayama went to the toilet to rinse his mouth and solve his physical problems. Then he sat in a special seat in the studio and began to silently recall his award speech.
But I was thinking that tomorrow would be my last day in Rome.
