Summary: Arashi as kindergarteners! With paint! ♥


~*~*~

The classroom is particularly lively today. The children are all excited because the teacher has given everyone a sheet of blank paper and various colourful paints for them to play with.

Teacher has left them alone for a few moments while she goes to retrieve some paintbrushes for them and little Jun is taking this opportunity to mentally draw what he plans to paint; tiny finger mapping out a picture on the paper.

Sho is not sure what he wants to paint yet so, as the oldest of the lot, he opts to watch what everyone else is doing.

Masaki is struggling to open the bright yellow paint can on his own. He really should wait for Teacher to come back and help him instead. Satoshi is staring blankly out the window, but Sho thinks he sees something outside that Sho doesn't. Kazunari looks bored and is playing with his fingers. He even yawns once before promptly collapsing backwards and sprawling out his arms and legs awkwardly.

Sho looks back down in front of him, but his paper's not there anymore. Sho emits a small noise of confusion and turns around. No. The paper's not behind him either. Sho is a bit disheartened because now he's the only one without paper and how's he supposed to paint then? He pouts but resolves that he'll just tell Teacher that he lost it and she'll give him another one. It'll be okay.

“Neee, Sho-chan, Sho-chan! Come see what I've done!” Masaki squeals from behind Sho.
Sho turns and responds, “What? Ma-chan, what-”, but stops once he sees what he's done.

Whilst Sho had been watching everyone and losing his paper, Masaki, too impatient to wait for such silly things as paintbrushes, has simply used his fingers to paint a bright yellow chicken on a bright yellow road under a bright green sky. At least, that's what it looks like to Sho and Jun, who's come over to see what was so interesting. It could, alternatively, be a chicken lying sideways on the grass under a yellow sky.

“Do you like it?” Masaki inquires as he stamps a yellow thumbprint in the middle of the green sky that turns out sort of blue. Sho and Jun politely say nothing.

“I like it. But I couldn't open the blue paint, so that's why the sky is green.”
“Oh,” Sho comments unnecessarily. “Did you know that yellow and blue makes green?”
“Really? Let's make green! Let's make green then, Sho.” Masaki scampers over to the blue paint can which he failed to open before (as evidenced by all the yellow fingerprints covering the tin) and tries again.

Luckily, the teacher comes back before the experiment can begin. She sighs softly when she spots Masaki's hands and asks him if he'd prefer a brush instead. Masaki shakes his head because the paint feels nice and squishy and cool. Teacher nods but gives everyone a brush anyway and sets about opening the paints. Sho takes this chance to ask for more paper.

Once he gets his hands on a brush, Satoshi quickly covers his page with long, brown strokes; brows knitted together and tongue faintly peeking out of the corner of his mouth. Kazunari wakes up after receiving his paintbrush but isn't interested in doing anything with it, so he wanders over to where Sho and the others are.

Sho realises that his original paper was actually lying underneath Kazunari and now he doesn't know what to do with his substitute paper. He voices his concerns to the room at large.

“Can I rip it in half?” Kazunari quips. Sho gives him a look.
“Yeah, okay.”

For a short while, the room is silent save for the sounds of paper ripping as it gets smaller and smaller, brush strokes and keys clicking as Teacher types on her laptop. The silence is broken when Jun screeches as Masaki, trying to convey to Jun just how nice it feels if stick your fist into a tin of paint, grabs one of Jun's small wrists and tries to do just that. Jun is visibly upset and Kazunari's not helping, egging Masaki on because “Jun-chan won't understand the feeling if you just tell him, ne! Show him, Ma-chan!”.

As oldest and peacemaker, Sho intervenes before Jun starts crying or worse, paint gets on Jun-chan's clothes or hair. Masaki is unperturbed and happily switches Jun's hand to Sho's hand and Sho's hand is now in the tin of pink paint. Now both Jun and Kazunari are laughing at him and Sho's hand is cold.

Satoshi chooses this moment to suddenly come over and borrow some pink paint and asks, face screwed up in mild distaste, “What's with your hand?” Sho glares darkly at all of them, but because he's a Big Boy, he calmly returns his attention to his, still blank, paper. Since his hand's already covered in pink, he figures he'll just paint his entire picture in pink. It's a stick figure picture of the five of them; Sho distinguishes between each of them so the others will be able to recognise themselves.

The others have finished their pictures whilst Sho is still absorbed in his. Masaki wants to play patty-cake with Jun but Jun does not appreciate getting his hands covered in paint so he refuses. Masaki pouts at this and the small boy looks down at the even smaller Jun with imploring eyes. Jun reluctantly consents and the two play and Kazunari gives running commentary.

During the fifth or so game, Masaki's left hand misses Jun's right hand and hits his right shoulder. And now Jun's really gonna cry. Flailing, Masaki apologises over and over again but doesn't know what to do. Satoshi takes charge and asks Jun if he wants a cookie. Jun argues back that a cookie won't help. Satoshi asks “What about two cookies?” and then Jun stops crying and the problem is solved.

At the end of the day, the five of them show off their paintings. Satoshi's is a picture of the cherry blossom tree outside with a bird sitting on the branch. The bird is kind of huge in comparison to the tree but all the boys think it's amazing and Kazunari chirps that it's his favourite out of the lot of them.

Masaki's is the same yellow chicken as before except between then and now he's added some pink and purple clouds and a huge paint blob had landed on the bottom half near the chicken's feet. Masaki explains that “It's chicken-san's egg. It looks yummy, ne!” but the boys are sceptical about whether the blob was intentional.

On his own piece of paper, Kazunari's painted what appears to be a grey thing and a yellow and brown rectangle next to it. Everything's painted slanting to the left and Sho's substitute paper rippings are attached to a blue border. The boys take turns guessing what it might be; “I think it's a rock flying a kite,” Masaki inputs. Kazunari pouts but brightens when Satoshi says “It looks a bit like a troll when I tilt my head left. A troll... with treasure?” Kazunari “Yay!”s and hugs Satoshi, proclaiming that “This is why you're my favourite senpai, Sammi-nii-chan.”

Sho feels a tad despondent that he's not Kazu-chan's favourite but brushes it off to look at Jun's. Jun's is simple but elegant; the bottom half is green for grass and on top there is a house with two windows and a door done in purple paint. Everyone agrees that it's good and Jun shyly smiles and tucks it to the side of him.

Last of all is Sho's picture. Sho proudly presents it to his friends and waits for them to respond with compliments. All four of them laugh and crow “What is this?” at Sho. Sho defends himself petulantly, saying “It's the five of us! Can't you tell? I made it really obvious.”

It takes quite awhile for them to identify one boy, Masaki. He's the tallest one of the stick figures and has been drawn with yellow on his hands. They can also tell which ones are meant to be Satoshi and Kazunari because they're the smallish ones to the side holding hands, however they can't tell who is who. Sho claims that Kazu-chan was originally the one with the longer hair but he stuffed it up and it became Satoshi wearing an artist's hat. Sho then explains that he's the one waving one hand in the air because he's the one that painted it. Jun-chan is the smallest and he drew him wearing what he has on today - a collared shirt and shorts - but the shorts smudged and it looks like a skirt.

There's also a rainbow in the background. Teacher thinks it's quite good (even if none of the others think so) which makes Sho happy and she adds that she's surprised he picked pink (no-one catches the quick glance she directs at Jun).

She collects the five paintings to hang on the wall. Sho's still a tiny, teensy, little bit upset that no one likes his picture so Masaki tackles him and tickles him, staining his shirt yellow and pink. He also graciously adds that “Sho-chan is Ma-chan's favourite senpai!”. Jun also wanders over to hug Sho and not one to feel left out, Kazunari drags Satoshi over with him and everyone dog-piles on Sho.

Teacher sighs but smiles anyway when she turns around and sees five cute boys getting paint all over themselves, sprawled on top of each other, giggling their little hearts out.

A/N: I thought of this after watching the talk at the end of Mago Mago 78, I believe, where the boys talk about if they all had sons, they would send them to the same school and they'd be just like them. Sort of a 2nd generation Arashi XD Which logically leads me to think of how Arashi would have been in kindergarten, lol.
Also, by the way, “Sammi” is a nickname Nino randomly gave Ohno on one Mago Mago episode (I think). And, in case you didn't know, Sho kind of fails at drawing (but it is hilarious) and Nino ain't all that great at drawing either XD

ETA: What the hey, I got fanart! Check the comments :)
