A Kiss Under the Moon – Part 11
…”Nao, it’s you again! I’ve had enough of your stupid games! What is it that you really want?” Aoi said.
“I don’t really care about what you think. If you ain’t gonna play along, you’ll never be able to see HIM again. You wouldn’t want that do you?” Nao said.
“Tch…you dirty…whatever. If that’s my only option to get him back I’ll do it but this is the last time I’m ever doing this.” Aoi replied angrily.
“Good. School’s rooftop tonight.” Nao said and then hung up.
Aoi walked to towards the living room emotionless and sat on the couch. Reita had just finish explaining to Ruki and Kai about what happened.
Ruki got up from his seat and sat beside Aoi. Ruki patted Aoi’s back and said,
“Hey, you alright?”
“I don’t know I’m really confused now. Nao…why does he have to tear us apart? Why is this happening to us?” Aoi said.
“Don’t worry we’ll help you search for Uruha. I’m sure he’ll be fine.” Ruki said trying to stop Aoi from worrying.
“I sure hope so but there’s no need to search for Uruha.” Aoi replied.
“What? Why?” Reita and Kai said at the same time. Ruki looked curious as well.
“I will be meeting Nao tonight and I will end Uruha’s sufferings.” Aoi said.
“Alright! We’ll go with you and we’ll slash that Nao into pieces. Just you wait Nao we’ll kill you!” Kai said and hit Aoi on the head.
“NO! It’s fine. I’ll go myself. I’ll bring Uruha back myself and you guys just wait here. All Nao wants is just me so I’ll do this myself. Trust me, I can do this.All this happened because of me anyways so I’ll be the one to end what I first started” Aoi explained.
Those words silenced everyone in the room. As Reita were about to speak, Aoi got up and walked away.
“I don’t understand. Why is he trying to act all tough when he’s not?” Reita asked.
“Leave him be. He’s determined to do this. So let him go.” Ruki said while walking back to his room.
“But…we’re his friends aren’t we? We could atleast do something to help him.” Reita said.
“Even if we wanted to, Aoi wouldn’t let and besides, we don’t even know where Aoi and Nao will meet.” Ruki added.
“I can’t let Aoi have all the fun alone. I know where they will meet.” Kai said happily.
Ruki and Reita turned and look at Kai.
“What? I seriously do. It’s just now’s not the right time yet.” Kai added.
“Kai…c’mon don’t joke around.” Reita said while Ruki didn’t respond.
“I’m serious. Don’t look down on me guys. Just a minute ago, I placed something on Aoi’s head which allows me to track him wherever he is.” Kai explained while holding a weird device.
“Wow, Kai I thought the only thing you’re good at is cooking. Nice one, Kai!” Reita said while walking towards Kai.
“You bought a tracking device?” Ruki asked.
“Yup. I was planning to place the micro chip on all of you so no one will get missing in the future.” Kai said.
“Insane!” Ruki and Reita both said and walked to their rooms.
As time passed, the sky was already dark. It was time for Aoi to meet Nao.
He was fully prepared to risk anything including his life. He left the house and head towards the school. Reita, Ruki & Kai was also prepared for the upcoming ‘battle’.
Aoi’s good friends will help him no matter what.
As Aoi walked up the stairs and held the door’s knob, he realized how much he loved Uruha. With a smile, he thought to himself,
“Everything will be over..” and opened the door.

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 10
…Full of disappointment, Aoi walked out the hall slowly. Aimlessly, he walked and walked with his head held low. At the same time, someone was running really fast and then collided with Aoi. Without even bothering, Aoi continued walking.
“Oh I’m sorry. Hey! It’s you Aoi! I was so unlucky. While I was catching up with you, I met the principal and he was asking so much questions. Anyway, did you managed to find Uruha?” Reita asked.
Aoi still didn’t respond.
“Gosh, answer me would you?” Reita asked again.
Finally, Aoi spoke up. Aoi told Reita what happened back in the hall.
“That’s really weird of Uruha. I believe that, Uruha will never say that. Maybe he was forced to?” Reita said
“Let’s go back for now. I’ll tell the others and then we’ll discuss about it.” Reita added.
Reita and Aoi then went back to the villa. When they’ve reached, it was already very late but no one was back.
“It’s so late already and Ruki and Kai aren’t back yet? Sigh. Where’d they go at a time like this?” Reita said.
Aoi looked really upset and went straight to Uruha’s room. He sat on the bed and started to cry. Reita knew that there’s nothing he could do now to help Aoi.
“Aoi…I’m sure Uruha’s gonna be fine. Go get some sleep and we’ll search for him tomorrow again okay?” Reita said.
Aoi wiped off his tears and returned to his room.
“Sigh…what a day. I wonder what does that Nao wants anyway.” Reita mumbled.
***
[The next morning]
“Uwaa~~~~ So sleepy. Didn’t managed to sleep well last night.” Reita said.
He decided to get some fresh air. So, he went to the balcony. It was raining really heavily. When he got there, he saw Aoi sitting alone by the corner.
“Why don’t you get in? You’ll get wet this way.” Reita said to Aoi.
“Look…Look at the raindrops…” Aoi replied.
“You didn’t sleep at all now did you?” Reita asked.
“How could I still sleep after what Uruha have said to me?” Aoi answered.
“I guess you’re right but you should at least get some rest. I mean look at yourself. You look like a panda.Anyway, I’ll go tell Kai and Ruki about it. Take a nap alright?” Reita said.
***
[At Nao’s place]
Uruha was sleeping on Nao’s bed. Suddenly, Uruha started calling out for Aoi’s name.
“A…o…i…I’m sorry. I didn’t have a choice. I’m really sorry.” Uruha said in his sleep.
“Sorry doesn’t cure anything ya know.” Nao said. He came in the room and sat beside Uruha.
“Aoi! Wait. What? Why am I here?” Uruha said.
“Don’t worry. I ain’t gonna hurt you. You’ve done everything that I’ve told you to.” Nao said.
“Why are you doing this to us? Why did you have to separate Aoi and I?” Uruha asked.
“Why…you ask? Do you have any idea what you’ve done back then?! It was all your fault. If it wasn’t for you…Aoi and I wouldn’t have…separated!! It was all revenge!” Nao said angrily.
“Back then? I don’t understand? I don’t believe I’ve met you before…what have I done? Please…tell me!” Uruha said.
“Shut up! I don’t think you need me to remind you right? Forget about it…Now, be a good boy. If you do as I say and follow my orders, I won’t do anything to your precious one.” Nao replied.
Uruha really wanted to know what was Aoi’s relationship with Nao last time. Since Nao wouldn’t tell, Uruha just kept quiet.
“Stay here. I’ll be out for a while.” Nao said and slammed the door.
Nao went to his garden behind the house. It was really huge. You might even get lost there. One thing about the garden is…the garden was filled with white roses. There were butterflies all over. It is as if the the garden was heaven itself.
Nao was from a wealthy family. Unfortunately, his parents died when he was at the age of 10. With all the money in the world, he could’ve done anything with it. With the absence of his parents devotion, Nao didn’t really understand what love is and was known as the ‘deserted one’ in school. That is until Aoi first talked to him. Nobody at school wants or dares to talk to Nao as he was so silent in class and Aoi was the first who would talk to Nao. Nao considers Aoi as his one and only friend.
Nao took out his cell phone and called Aoi.
“Good morning. How are you? Slept well last night? I have another game for you…” Nao said. To be continued…

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 9
…”Darn it!! He must be somewhere around this building! It must have something to do with a piano. I’m sure of it.” Aoi said.
Nao really loved the piano ever since he was a kid. He was really interested to learn the piano but his mom wouldn’t allow for some certain reason. No matter how Nao begged, the answer he’ll get from his mom is as usual “NO”
That didn’t made him lose hope though. He continued loving the piano and also took some lessons from his friends.
“I know! They might be in the hall. If I’m not wrong, theres a white grand piano there. So maybe they might be there…” Reita said.
“Right! Why didn’t I think of that again?” Aoi said while running towards the hall.
“Argh. Quit the nonsense and make sure you find Uruha!” Reita said while catching up with Aoi’s abnormal running speed.
Aoi ran as fast as he could towards the hall. He didn’t want to be a single second late.
Aoi stormed in hall and started calling for Uruha. The hall was really dark. The windows and curtains were all shut. It was in complete silence. Slowly, Aoi walked around the hall to see if anyone’s there. Suddenly, there was a black figure standing in front of the stage. Aoi walked a little faster than before to see who was it. Aoi then realizes that it was Uruha.
“Uruha! I’ve finally found you! Are you alright? Did anything happen to you?” Aoi started to ask a bunch of questions.
Uruha didn’t respond. In fact, he just kept quiet and turned away. For a moment there, Uruha’s eyes was filled with sorrow and despair. Uruha has a lot of stuff to tell Aoi but he couldn’t.
“Hey! Answer me! Reita and I looked everywhere for you!” Aoi said.
Yet again, there was no respond. Aoi grabbed Uruha’s shoulders and started shaking him.
Uruha turned to look at Aoi and then said calmly “None of my concern.”
“What did you say? None of your concern? How could you say that?” Aoi replied.
“Well, hello Aoi~ You’re already here eh? Sorry for being late. I was preparing something just now.” a voice said suddenly.
Aoi turned around immediately to see who was it. It was Nao.
“Let’s get to the point shall we? Now that you’ve found us, you can have him back. Go on..” Nao said.
Nao walked towards the stairs near the stage and sat down. Aoi thought it was pretty weird the way Nao acted. The Nao that Aoi knew wouldn’t admit defeat no matter what. However, Aoi wasn’t really bothered about that.
“Uruha…everything is over. Let’s go back.” Aoi said with a smile.
Uruha didn’t answer. He stared at Aoi blankly for a while and then replied.
“I don’t want to…I’m sorry…Aoi. The truth is, I never liked you. So please, leave me alone!”
“Imposibble. What’ve happened to you? It must be Nao!” Aoi said.
Aoi walked straight towards Nao and grabbed his collar.
“What have you done to Uruha? Why doesn’t he want to follow me back? It’s not like him. Aoi said.
“I didn’t do anything to him as you can see. I was just sitting here. I didn’t even lift a finger on him. Don’t you understand? You asked Uruha to follow you back but he doesn’t want to. He doesn’t like you…It’s just that simple.” Nao said while laughing.
“It can’t be…” Aoi said with a very disappointed tone. He thought he could find Uruha and bring him back. But everything didn’t really go that well. To be continued…

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 8
[At Aoi’s brother’s villa]
Aoi and his brother were talking about their experience during the holidays.
“I’ll go get a cup of drink.” Aoi said
“Alright.” Aoi’s brother, Akio said.
Aoi walked into the kitchen and grabbed a glass cup. Suddenly, the cup fell on the floor. Pieces of glass were scattered all over the floor. Aoi just stood there dozing off.
Akio immediately ran to the kitchen.
“AOI! What are you doing? AOI!” Akio shouted.
“Something’s wrong….I gotta get back to the villa. Uruha!” Aoi said and then vanished into thin air.
“I can’t believe he just left like that. Oh well, he’s gonna get it from me the next time I see him.
***
Aoi ran back to his villa and started to search for Uruha. No one is even home.
“Why is it so quite here? Isn’t anyone home at all!?” Aoi asked himself. “Darn it.” he said.
He continued searching and searching and even searched outside the villa. He still can’t find him. He tried calling Uruha but there was no answer. When he was walking around the villa, he tripped over something.
“What’s that?” Aoi said. He bent down to get a closer look.
“Hey! It’s Uruha’s phone! Something happened here isn’t it!? I told him to be careful!” Aoi said.
Suddenly, Aoi’s phone rang. The was no number again. He quickly answered the call and said
“It’s you isn’t it?! Nao! What have you done to Uruha? You know where is he don’t you?” Aoi asked.
“Yes, it’s me. But I really don’t know where Uruha is.” Nao said while laughing.
“Stop it. It’s not funny.” Aoi said with a serious tone.
“Alright…alright…You wanna know where you precious Uruha is don’t you? Let’s play a game. I’ll give you 30 minutes to find out where I am. If you don’t come to the place where I am within the time given, Uruha will belong to me and who knows what I’ll do to him. Well then, 30 minutes starting from…now.” Nao said.
“Nao! Nao!” Aoi shouted
“Damn him. He closed the phone! 3o minutes? How the hell am I suppose to guess where is he?” Aoi sad to himself.
Aoi then called Reita and told him everything about it.
***
“We’ve already searched several places and we still can’t find him. Let’s just sit down somewhere and then think.” Reita said.
“But..ugh…alright…” Aoi said.
“Now, you told me that you had been friends with Nao for a very long time right? Do you remember where he likes to go? Or things he like to do? Reita asked.
“Well, It has been such a long time. I don’t remember. ARGHHHH 15 minutes left. Think Aoi! Think!!” Aoi said.
“The school…I think, we should search around the school.” Reita said.
“Okay. Let’s try.” Aoi said.
***
[At the school]
“If I’m not mistaken, he plays the piano. He always hangs out in the music room. So, maybe…” Aoi said.
Reita and Aoi ran to the music room.
“It’s locked.” Reita said.
They didn’t have a choice so they actually broke in.
“Damn! They’re not here.” Aoi said.
Suddenly, Aoi’s phone started ringing again.
“Hey, Aoi~ You’ve got 8 minutes left. Where would you go? Few more minutes, Uruha will be mine and I can do anything…to him.” Nao said. To be continued…

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 7
…Everyone enjoyed their evening together with their loved ones…except for Kai that is.
“Gosh…Where’d everyone go?? Can’t any of them at least tell me where they’re off to?” Kai mumbled to himself.
***Several Days Later***
Uruha and Aoi was at the ‘Maid Cafe’ when Aoi’s phone suddenly ranged. He looked at his phone to see who called, but there was no number shown.
“Excuse me for a moment.” Aoi said to Uruha.
Aoi went out of the cafe and answered the strange call.
“Hello. May I know who’s on the line here?” Aoi asked. There was no reply. So Aoi ended the call. Then, it ranged again.
“Um…hello? Is anyone there? Or perhaps you’ve called the wrong number.” Aoi said.
“Wrong number? You’re Aoi am I wrong? Glad to hear your sweet voice again. Having your time in the cafe?” the mysterious person said.
“How’d you…? Wait, do I know you?” Aoi asked.
“Yes, you do. You knew me very well too. In fact, we used to hang out a lot back then. Until…your little band got famous.” the person said.
“I’m really sorry. I don’t remember you.” Aoi said.
“You don’t? How disappointing. But don’t worry, you will soon…my dear Aoi. I’ll have you back. No matter what it takes, I’ll get back what was mine from that filthy bastard…Uruha.” the person said and immediately offed the phone.
Aoi then went back in to the cafe.
“I’m back. Sorry for taking so long.” Aoi apologized to Uruha.
“Oh its all right. Anyway, who was that?” Uruha asked.
“It was no one. I think we should get going now.” Aoi said.
“Alright then.” Uruha replied.
“I think someone’s watching us.” Aoi whispered.
“What?” Uruha asked.
“Oh nothing. I was just wondering how much it’ll cost altogether.
***
That night, Aoi told Uruha to be careful but when Uruha asked for the reason, Aoi didn’t answer.
The next morning, Aoi was heading towards the car to visit he’s brother again. He saw a man leaning on his car. Aoi wasn’t sure who was it so he walked nearer to get a closer look.
“Um…excuse me? May I help you?” Aoi asked the man.
“Oh hey Aoi! Took you long enough!” the man said.
Aoi looked at the man blankly.
“Don’t you remember me? It was only yesterday…I called you. Remember?” the man said.
Aoi got really shocked and said “How did you know that I lived here?
“You don’t. You just came here for a holiday correct? he said.
“I don’t know how you found out the details. But all I know is that you look extremely familiar…” Aoi said.
“N……..I’ll get going now, see you soon my dear Aoi.” the man said to Aoi.
Aoi think really hard and finally remembered.
“NAO! He’s Nao am I right?” Aoi said quickly.
***
Nao was a friend of Aoi in elementary school. They were really close friends but Nao was always a bit more violent.
It is said that Nao liked Aoi but Nao never showed it. Instead, Nao used to blackmail Aoi a lot. Although Aoi doesn’t like the way Nao does things, but Aoi knew that Nao was still he’s best friend. After that, Aoi joined a band and started to get famous leaving Nao alone.
***
Uruha was at the villa alone. Aoi went to visit his brother. Reita and Ruki went out as usual and this time, Kai went out to find his childhood friends and played football.
“It’s so bored being alone. I guess now I know how Kai felt.” Uruha laughed.
“Maybe I should go out and have a walk around the villa.” he said.
Uruha walked and walked while admiring the nature. Suddenly someone grabbed Uruha’s hands really hard. Then, the person took out a knife and pointed it at Uruha.
“You don’t wanna get cut by my beloved knife right? So, do as I say and you’ll be just fine.” the person said. To be continued…

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 6
…”Imposibble…” Uruha said.
“It’s the truth. The reason why I didn’t do anything to show it is because…I never thought you liked me even one bit. Or maybe I was waiting for you to make the first move.” Aoi said.
“That’s exactly how I felt.” Uruha said.
“Haha~ So I guess now, we both know the truth.” Aoi said.
***
At the same time, Ruki had a little feeling about Aoi liking Uruha because Aoi got extra worried after receiving news about Uruha the other day. That night, Ruki was wandering around the town alone when he came across a tarot reader. Many people were there and Ruki thought he’d give it a try so he waited for his turn. The minute Ruki sat down, the tarot reader said “Your problem…is concerning ‘love’ correct?”
“H-how did you know?” Ruki asked.
The guy didn’t answer. Instead, he called Ruki to pick a card. So Ruki did. The guy took a glimpse at the card and started saying :
“The one you truly love, has always been beside you,
You just don’t realize that the person’s love for you is true.
He would do anything, just for you,
And he might come here now, if he knew.”
Although Ruki was blur about what the guy said, he knew that the person he love wasn’t Aoi anymore. He remembered the kindness of that person who’ve always been there for him whenever he’s sad. But he just can’t seem to remember who that person is.
Then, he continued to walk around the town looking at the stars, and lights as cars passes by. He kept walking and walking aimlessly and finally met Reita in a dark alley.
“Ruki, I over heard what Aoi told you yesterday. I’m very sorry for you.” Reita said.
Ruki ran and hugged Reita as hard as possible and cried his heart out.
“I thought…..I THOUGHT THAT NO ONE WILL EVER COME FOR ME!” Ruki said while crying.
Reita smiled and said “Stupid…Even if everyone no longer cares about you, trust you and love you, I’ll always be there for you. I’ll be there to lend you my shoulder to cry on whenever you need it.”
Ruki finally felt so happy as he didn’t really felt comfortable around Aoi. Then Ruki remembered what the tarot reader told him
“He would do anything, just for you,
And he might come here now, if he knew.”
That moment, Ruki was really sure that the person he loved was Reita and it has always been him.
***
“Why do I get the feeling that everyone’s having their moment out there and just dumped me in the house like that?” Kai said sadly.

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 5
…Ruki and Aoi had finally reached the hospital.
“How is Uruha’s condition?” Aoi asked anxiously. This is the first time he had gotten so worried. Usually he’d be all calm and relaxed.
“Sorry…I guess…We’ve lost him.” Reita said in a depressed tone.
Tears started rolling down on Reita’s face. Uruha was a friend that he knew the longest and they spent almost their whole life together. He couldn’t stand it anymore. When he was about to burst into tears, another nurse came up to him and said,
“Excuse me, are you Uruha’s friend?”
“Yes…Is something the matter?” Reita said.
“I apologize for our mistake here. Uruha is still alive. No fatal injuries. Although he lost plenty of blood, we still managed to save him from that crisis.” the nurse replied.
“I don’t understand. Just a few minutes ago, the other nurse told us that…” Reita said.
“Yes. It was a false report. You see, there was another person who had gotten into an accident as well but his accident was fatal. Uruha is fine now. You may now enter the room to see him.” the nurse explained.
***
Ruki and Kai walked in the room immediately and when Aoi was about to go in, Reita grabbed his hand and said “I have something to tell you.”
So they went to the cafe and had a chat. Reita told Aoi exactly what happened. He also told Aoi that Uruha followed then to the fair and saw everything. After their chat, they went back up to see Uruha.
When Reita got in, Uruha said “Reita, I never tried to kill myself. I was just trying to save a kid.” Uruha explained.
Uruha explained to Reita exactly what has happened.
***
After a few days, Uruha got discharged from the hospital. Aoi, Ruki, Reita and Kai were there to pick him out.
“Finally I’m out! It feels like prison inside there. The food they served was bland.” Uruha said while laughing.
Everyone laughed as well. They were happy to see Uruha again. When they’ve reached the villa, Aoi and Uruha were the last to enter.
Aoi suddenly grabbed Uruha’s hand and pinned him to the wall. Nobody saw because they were so hungry and went straight to the kitchen. Aoi’s face was so close to Uruha’s.
“He’s so close I can almost hear his heartbeat. He’s breath. What am I suppose to say now?” Uruha thought to himself in shock.
“Your heart is beating so fast.” Aoi whispered.
“T-t-that’s because…y-yo-you’re so close to me.” Uruha said.
“You don’t like it?” asked Aoi.
“Well, I never said that.” Uruha answered.
“Anyways, whether you like it or not. I’ll bring you out somewhere tonight. Wait for me at the car at 8.00 pm” Aoi whispered softly into Uruha’s ears and walked away.
Uruha was still freezed there. He was shocked after what Aoi did and said untill Kai came searching for him.
***
As time passes, it was already 8 at night. Uruha walked towards the car and waited for Aoi. After several seconds, Aoi tapped Uruha on the shoulder and said “Did you wait for long?”
Uruha turned around and was shocked once again. “No…” Uruha answered with a smile.
And so, Aoi drived and took Uruha somewhere.
“Where are we going?” asked Uruha.
“You’ll see.” Aoi replied.
They’ve finally reached. “The beach!! I love it here. But…how did you know?” Uruha asked.
“Glad you do. Reita told me everything. The first time I went to a beach was on elementary school. I could remember very well it was this exact beach…And also…I couldn’t believe you went through all the trouble to follow me to the fair.” Aoi said and giggled.
“It was Reita ain’t it? I knew it.” Uruha said.
“Now don’t go blaming him. If he didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t have invited you here now would I?” Aoi said.
“I guess you’re right.” Uruha said.
Aoi then whispered to Uruha.”I need to tell you something. I only treated Ruki as my younger brother. So please don’t get the wrong idea. The person I really love is….you.” To be continued…

[A Kiss Under the Moon] – Part 4
…”I don’t believe it. Are they together or something?” Reita asked with a despairing tone.
When Reita turned and looked at Uruha, Uruha looked so gloomy. It is as if the world has turned their back on him.
“Um…Uru? Are you okay?” Reita asked again. Uruha didn’t answer and walked away. He was walking so fast that Reita couldn’t catch up with him.
***
After a moment, Reita went back to the villa. He was searching for Kai all over the villa. “Darn it! Where’s Kai?!!” Reita said anxiously.
Reita went to the kitchen and saw Kai trying some of his new and weird recipes.
“KAI! I finally found you! Have you seen Uruha? Did he come back? Did he even contacted you?” Reita asked immediately.
“Wow, Reita. Calm down would ya? Well, no, no and no. Did something happened?” Kai said.
“I can’t! Uru is missing!” Reita said.
“Missing? How could that be?” Kai asked
“Let’s go look for him now! I’ll tell you on the way.” Reita said while running towards the car.
“Alright!” Kai said.
***
Reita explained everything that has happened to Kai. Including the fact that Reita likes Ruki while Uruha likes Aoi.
Kai and Reita serched for Uruha everywhere they knew. But still, no sign of Uruha.
“Where could that bastard go?!” Reita shouted.
“We’ve searched almost everywhere. Let’s think…where would you go if you’re in his situation?” Kai asked Reita.
“His situation…I know! Come! I think I know where he’d go to!” Reita replied.
In the car, Reita told Kai that when Uruha and Reita were in elementary school, Uruha would go to the beach when he is sad. That was the place where he met he’s girlfriend.
“Uruha once told me, the reason for him going there whenever he is sad is because of the cold breeze blowing his hair gently, that he could hear the birds chirping and also the deep blue ocean. When he is there, all his anguish will be gone. So i really think he might be there” Reita explained.
***
As Reita stated, Uruha was at the beach.
“I guess they’re just meant to be together. I mean, Ruki can make Aoi really happy and also make him laugh alot. I can’t do anything else then. Well, I should be going back now.” Uruha said with smile. When he was on his way home, he saw a little kid crossing the road. The father of the kid had already crossed the road and he was talking on the phone. The kid suddenly dropped something. So he picked it up. Unknowingly, there was a speeding car heading towards the kid. Uruha ran there as fast as he could and pushed the kid away. The car was speeding so fast that the driver of the car couldn’t even stop in time. Uruha didn’t have enough time to avoid the car.
***
“We’ve finally reached!” Reita said. Kai and Reita immediately got down from his car and started searching for Uruha again when they saw a bunch of people crowding at the road. They quickly ran to the place and saw Uruha lying on the floor.
“OHMYGOSH URUHA!!!!” Reita souted.
“Somebody please call the ambulance! Hurry!” Kai said.
“The ambulance is already on the way here. Please be patient.” a lady said.
“Thanks.” Kai replied.
“Uruha…Please hang on. Why’d you do that? How could you do such a stupid thing? You bastard!” Reita said to Uruha holding his hand.
Before Uruha can even say anything, he fainted…
After a minute, the ambulance finally came. They rushed to the hospital as quick as possible.
***
[At the hospital]
“Damn it! I really hope he’s all right. He lost so much blood just now.” Reita said.
“It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have told you guys that Aoi and Ruki will be going out.” Kai then said.
“It’s not your fault. We would’ve known sooner or later anyways.” Reita said softly.
Suddenly, Reita’s phone ranged. It was Ruki.
“Hey Rei? Where are you guys? It’s so late already.” Ruki asked.
“We’re in the hospital.” Reita said with a grieving tone.
“What?!” Ruki said.
Ruki and Aoi then rushed to the hospital as well after knowing Uruha got into an accident and which hospital they’re at now.
The nurse came towards Reita and Kai. “I’m sorry for your lost. The doctor tried his best. But it was too late. We’re terribly sorry.” the nurse said. To be continued…

…Aoi smiled, which made Ruki melt. Aoi tapped him on the head and said “Of course I’d go.”
Ruki’s heart was beating so fast. Aoi’s answer made Ruki overjoyed. Ruki was so captivated by Aoi’s heart-melting smile which made Ruki glared into Aoi’s warm and loving eyes.
“His eyes are so dark and cold. When he looks at me, I ain’t ever sure if he’s really looking at me or not, it’s like he’s looking straight through me to something only he can see.” thought Ruki.
“Is something the matter?” asked Aoi.
“No, nothing at all…it’s just…nothing.” replied Ruki.
He thought to himself again “His smile… every single time I look at his smile, it is as if I can stare at it for eternity.”
After they chit chatted, Aoi and Ruki went back to their own rooms. Ruki kept holding the tickets to the fair. He was so excited.
Suddenly Kai came in. Ruki didn’t notice as he’s mind is far away dreaming about the night he would spend with Aoi.
“Ruki? Are you okay?” Kai asked in shocked.
“Oh hey Kai. I’m fine. Y’know, I feel like im on cloud nine right now.” Ruki said.
“Why? Did a miracle happened between you and Aoi?” Kai asked.
“Well, it’s not much of a miracle, but it’s enough for me. When he looked at me, I just can’t seem to look away. He’s eyes are so hypnotizing. Every part of him is just so perfect ” said Ruki
“Wow, you really do look like you’re on cloud nine. I suppose everything’s goin’ well then.”? Kai said.
“That goes without saying. Haha. I won’t be back for dinner tomorrow. I’ll be out with Aoi to the fair which is going to be at Ueno Park. Ruki said happily.
“Alright then.” replied Kai
——The Next Day——
[At the kitchen]
“Morning, Uruha and Reita! You guys are super early today. What made your lazy asses wake up so early?” asked Kai.
“Hey, that’s mean of you. We had a bet with Ruki. He said if Uruha and I can wake up on time, he’ll give us something” Reita replied.
“Is that so? Oh by the way, Ruki and Aoi won’t be coming back for dinner tomorrow. They’ll be going out somewhere.” Kai said.
“WHERE?!” Uruha and Reita asked at the same time.
“They’ll be going to some fair at Ueno Park if I wasn’t mistaken.” Kai replied.
“I think I won’t be coming back for dinner as well. Sorry, Kai.” Reita said.
“Me too. I’ve forgotten that I have plans tonight.” Uruha said.
Both Reita and Uruha just left the villa doing they’re own stuff.
“Great! What’s the point of cooking then? I guess I’ll just have dinner outside tonight.” Kai said to himself.
***
As time passes, the time for Ruki to go out with Aoi has finally came. After Ruki’s done preparing, the minute he opened the door he saw Aoi’s car and of course Aoi inside the car. He was already ready and was only waiting for Ruki to be done.
“You’re finally done.” Aoi said with a gentle smile. Ruki blushed the minute Aoi said that.
“Shall we go now?” asked Aoi
“Yes.” replied Ruki
***
Reita was hiding behind a bush, waiting for Ruki and Aoi’s arrival at Ueno Park. “Gosh, when will they arrive?” he asked himself.
Another person answered “It’s taking those two forever!”
Reita turned and look at the person. It was Uruha. Reita was so antagonized to see Uruha there.
“What are you doing here?” asked Reita.
“I was about to ask you the same question.I am here to stalk Aoi. Haha.” replied Uruha.
“Well, I’m here to stalk Ruki. Such a coincidence. I mean, we’re behind the same bush!” Reita said.
Uruha laughed and said “Haha. Oh look, Ruki and Aoi have finally arrived.”
***
“Im amazed. This place is so fascinating.” Aoi said. A girl came and gave Aoi a cotton candy. “Here, take one. It’s free.” the girl said.
So Aoi took the cotton candy and took a bite. “Here, have a try.” Aoi said while putting the cotton candy in front of Ruki.
“Thanks.” Ruki said. So, he took a small bite. “It’s so sweet. This is my first time seeing a blue cotton candy.” Ruki said.
“Same here. The color is really nice isn’t it?” Aoi said.
“Yup. Somehow reminds me of…you.” Ruki said softly.
Reita and Uruha was there behind the bush watching them. What will be their reaction? What will they do? Visit the site again tomorrow for the next part. To be continued…

~The next day~
When Ruki woke up, Kai was already gone. So, Ruki went to search for him.
“I’m really glad I brought my own ingredients, or not I wouldn’t know what could I cook.” Kai said to himself.
“Found you! I thought you’d be here.” Ruki said. Kai was at the kitchen preparing breakfast for everyone.
“Haha, you actually searched for me? I’m not a kid who would get lost easily. Besides, this villa is pretty safe don’t you think so? ” Kai replied. “Well yeah. But still, just in-case. Anyway, I think I should be waking the rest up.” Ruki said. “Okay.” Kai replied.
Ruki then went to Reita’s room first. *knock knock* “You guys awake yet?” Ruki asked. Nobody answered. “Sigh, bet they’re still sleeping.” he said.
When Ruki opened the door, he was so shocked. Reita and Uruha were supposed to be on the same bed but Ruki saw Reita on the floor and Uruha sleeping on the bed. The room was really messy. “Gosh, Uruha doesn’t only have sexy thighs, he also has really strong legs.” he mumbled and laughed.
Suddenly, Reita woke up and said “Good morning Ruki! Watcha doing here so early? And…how did I ended up sleeping on the floor?” Ruki giggled and replied “Morning Reita. It’s not that early…It’s already 10.30 am. We were supposed to wake up at 8. And I really think you know the answer. Anyway, wake Uruha up and get ready. After that, go to the dining room. Kai had already prepared breakfast. I’ll be going to Aoi’s room now.”
Ruki reached Aoi’s room. He stood in front of the door doing nothing. “Aoi will be sleeping in that room…I should go in.” he mumbled to himself. When he opened the door and was about to wake him up…”Hey, he’s not here anymore” Ruki said. The room was really tidy and clean unlike Uruha’s room. Ruki was really disappointed not seeing Aoi in his room. He took a step backward and suddenly banged into someone. It was Aoi. Ruki’s face immediately turned red.
“Ohmygosh, Aoi! I’m so sorry! I didn’t know you were standing right behind me!” Ruki quickly said.
“It’s okay, no big deal. I mean you didn’t know right? But what were you doing here anyway?” Aoi replied with a warm smile.
“I was about to wake you up for breakfast and turns out you’re not here.” Ruki said.
“I see. Thanks. I went to meet someone.” Aoi said.
“Oh, alright then. Let’s go for breakfast.” said Ruki.
Ruki and Aoi then walked to the dining room together. Ruki kept thinking about the person which Aoi had met with. Ruki was really curios to know who was it. “Ruki? What’s wrong?” Aoi asked.
“Huh? What? Oh nothing. I was just wondering about something.” Ruki replied.
———Flashback———
[Morning, around 8.30 am]
Kai was heading to the kitchen when he saw Aoi. “Good morning, Aoi. You’re early today.” Kai said.
“Morning. Yeah, I’ll be out to meet ———. Don’t worry I’ll be back for breakfast” Aoi said.
“Okay. Hey Aoi…you have a secret admirer. Treat him well okay?” Kai said.
“Secret admirer eh? Wonder who is it. I’ll treat him well after I know who.” answered Aoi
“You will…soon” Kai said with a laugh.
———–Present———-
Aoi thought to himself, “Kai said it was a him. Probably someone from the band. Not Reita, he already liked someone else. It couldn’t be Uruha as well since we’re like siblings who can’t get along at all. Haha. Hmm, Maybe it’s him?” Aoi mumbled.
“Hey Ruki, in-case if you’re wondering, I went to meet my brother.” Aoi said
“What? Your brother? Isn’t he in Tokyo?” Ruki quickly asked.
“Yes, he was. But he heard from Sakai (the manager) that we will be coming here for the holiday. So, he came along with his wife and children. He didn’t live in the same villa though.” Aoi answered.
“Phew what a relief !” Ruki whispered to himself.
“You said something? Aoi asked “Oh no. Nothing at all.” Ruki answered.
After everyone finished breakfast, they packed their stuff and went on the car to go to town.
“I’m still so full. Kai’s food was so yummy.” Uruha said.
“Hahah. I feel so flattered.” Kai said.
When they reached town, they went to a mall called Mitsui Plaza. They started window-shopping, but they kept on eating and eating. After walking awhile, Ruki realized that he got separated from the rest.
He knew nothing would happen so he continued walking around the plaza.
A girl suddenly asked, “Hello there, would you like to go to the fiesta which will be held at Ueno Park tomorrow night? There will be lots of shops and mini-games. You can go with your girlfriend, friends or family. Today is the last day we’re selling the tickets.”
“Thanks, but I don’t have a girlfriend. I i might not be free tomorrow night so…sorry.” Ruki answered.
Ruki finally met back with them. “Where’d you go?” Kai asked.
“Just walking around. I got separated from you guys so I continued walking” Ruki answered.
“Sigh, I just wish there was some fair or some interesting convention going to happen. I really wanna go.” Aoi said out of the blue.
“Well, I wouldn’t.” Reita said while laughing.
Ruki was shocked to hear what Aoi said. It is already time to go back. Ruki thought for a minute, “should he go buy the ticket or not?”
He then said “Please wait for a moment, I’ll be right back!” He ran to the place where the sales girl was selling the tickets to the fair.
“Um, hi again. I changed my mind. I AM free tomorrow night. Do you still have any tickets left?” Ruki asked the girl.
“I’m sorry we’re all sold out. But……if you really want it, I have 2 extra tickets” the girl replied.
“Really? Thanks alot!” Ruki said with excitement.
After that they went back to the villa. They were all at the living room talking.
“Where’d you run to just now?” Uruha asked.
“I bought something and I forgot to take it. Nothing much.” Ruki said with a smile and walked towards the balcony.
“Hey, you didn’t really forgot to take your stuff right?” Aoi asked.
“Oh hello. Um, how’d you know?” Ruki asked back.
“Well, you didn’t look like you were telling the truth to me.” Aoi said and giggled.
“True, I didn’t forgot to take my stuff. I just went to buy something. I need to ask you something. Will you be free tomorrow night?” Ruki asked.
“Hmm…maybe. I need to meet someone. Why? If I’m busy, I can always cancel my plans….for you.” Aoi answered.
Ruki blushed and finally had the courage to ask him.”A-a-are you willing to follow me to the fiesta held at Ueno park tomorrow night?”

Part 2 →
the GazettE was a band formed in the early 2002. Since the band was formed all the members were very close. The band consists of 5 members which are Ruki, Uruha, Kai, Reita, Aoi & Kai. In the band, Reita knew Uruha the longest. They knew each other since elementary school.
One day the whole band went for a holiday in a villa. 2 people in one room.So, the manager decided Ruki to be in the same room as Kai, Reita and Uruha while Aoi slept alone in another room.When they reached the villa, it was already night time so they planned to rest and have a walk in town the next day. The minute Uruha & Reita reached their rooms, they fell asleep. Kai was ‘exploring’ the kitchen as he planned to cook breakfast for everyone the next morning.
Ruki had nothing to do so he went on a stroll around the villa. He stopped by at a corner and kept looking at him. Suddenly, someone tapped him on the back and that gave Ruki a shock. “It’s just me.” Kai said. “You scared the life outta me. Mind not to make so much noise? If not will sorta disturb him” Ruki replied. “Him?” Kai asked. He looked at the direction of which Ruki was staring all the while and he saw Aoi. Aoi was just sitting there reading his book in his utmost elegant way. Ruki melted seeing Aoi being like that. “Oh someones in love~” Kai said. “Shhhhhhh…Please, keep your tone down. “Oh damn, he looked let’s run!” Ruki said in a hurry.
Ruki pulled Kai’s hand a ran to their room. That night, Ruki told Kai about his feelings towards Aoi. Kai suggested Ruki to confess to him since Ruki said he started to have feelings for Aoi since the band was formed. “You should try to tell him y’know” suggested Kai. “No, I can never do that. I will never have the courage to do it.” replied Ruki. “Why not? You never know if you never tried” said Kai.
Ruki’s tone suddenly changed and he said “No, I don’t think I even want to try. I am afraid to be rejected. Although I have never felt how it is to be rejected I just don’t want to be rejected…especially when it comes to him. After some time, Ruki fell asleep. Ruki kept repeating Aoi’s name in his dream. Kai smiled and wanted to laugh but was afraid that he would wake Ruki up. Then he pulled the blanket and covered Ruki gently. To be continued…
