Lila averts her gaze. Why didn't he get changed?
"You know I half expected you to come in, and at least wash my back for me."
T--this idiot.
"So, will you tomorrow?"
"Y--you don't need my help."
"But I do, I need you."
Don't say it like that, it's so easy to misunderstand.
"Can we kiss?"
He's asking for her approval, even though awhile back he would have just done it.
It's just a kiss.
Her body's burning up again. Why does she get like this whenever he kisses her?
Is Haruka happy? Kissing her? Whenever he does, it feels the same as it did then. It's filled with love. Maybe, he does know who she is. But, if he does. He surely isn't letting it out. Ah, he must be respecting her wishes. He really is kind.
"When we kiss, you should open your mouth more."
Sh--she wasn't? Maybe because it's been awhile for her.
"Like this?"
"A bit more."
.....
Lila was fully aware that it would be bad if they remained in each other's company long, so she asks Yumeko-chan to get her something. The moment she left, Haruka pins her against the bed.
"Senpai."
"She'll be gone for a bit."
Right now, their close enough to touch. But, she still can't give him her heart.
___________________________________________________
That surprised her, she wasn't expecting to see her back. After all, all the others one would be like, 'he needs me, so I can't stay here with you.' Then again, there were ones who waited for a few days, so she should Ari-chan a chance. That's right, she's still new. She doesn't know how frivolous Karashima Haruka can be. Once she's seen it enough times, then surely. Yumeko arrives at the door and she almost drop the tray upon seeing the scene.
Ah--!
"Nnnmmmgh…."
"Hm m…."
"Senpai, you have to go."
"I'll drop by later. I cancelled your work, so rest."
"Okay. Thank you."
"Ari-chan... "
"I'll see you later senpai, also, I had fun."
…. Something seems different than usual. Is it just her? Yumeko was in such deep thoughts that she didn't notice the door opening.
"You."
"What?"
"Look after her."
"You don't have to--eh, what did you say?"
"I said to look after her."
…. This is strange, he's never gone this far for another girl before. Or rather, could it be?
"She's special to you?"
"None of your business."
He's still so rude.
"Will you?"
"Dreaming of course."
Haruka nodded and placed something in her hand, rather it was a bag of several items.
"Give her these after she's eaten. Tell her not to call me, since I'll be in meetings."
Yumeko simply nodded and watches as he walks of. She should inspect the bag just in case it contains anything bad. But, after watching that interaction just now. She doubts she will find anything dangerous inside. It's only been a short amount of time and yet, he seems to have completely changed because of her. There's another theory though, one that's more likely. When she first met Ari-chan a week ago, she really did think the girl resembled Lila-chan.
In the end she got caught up in the cousin theory, but, if she thinks back to her conversation with Lila-chan. The cousin supposely has bright hair and resembles her sister more. Ari-chan, really does resemble Lila-chan. But, she can't say for sure that her theory is correct.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The last thing he expected was Yumeko in his doorstep, at 6am in the morning. According to her Lila-chan came back with senpai, and, 'They're close, too close. So I have something I want to ask.' Since when did this girl get so sharp? Then again, he's been with her a lot, so he shouldn't be surprised by now.
"I'm coming in! "
"Uh yea--" Mikami pauses in mid-sentence realizing something.
However, it was far too late, Yumeko had entered the living room and seen her. Just his luck, the girl was still in her underwear and looking for her clothes.
The blonde hair girl's eyes twitches in annoyance.
"And, here I thought you were working on the new song properly."
"Well."
"Why are you back to fooling around? With a first year too."
"It's not his fault Kanehera-san, someone drugged me, and he helped me out."
"Are you dreaming alright?!!"
The girl seemed startled by Yumeko's sudden question. Well anyone would, Yumeko composes herself quickly and asks for details.
"Blonde hair... Leather jacket, red one..."
…. Wait that description. The blonde sends a harsh look in his direction and his sweat dropped. Alright, alright. He'll deal with it. But ah, this sort of matter. Perhaps it would be better to report it to senpai instead.

Haruka?
Not here. Where did he go? Why did he leave? Did she offend him? When Haruka isn't with her, it all comes rushing back. She has to find him quickly. Otherwise once again she will.
'Just let yourself lose out, aren't we friends Lila?'
'We've been together for so long.
Why are you suddenly becoming cold?'
It's scary. So frightening.
Even though, the darkness has always been her companion. Slowly but gradually something started to change. The beauty and light she saw in the darkness gradually became hollow. Since when? When did it become like this? It's cold and so scary, so frightening, she doesn't like this. Was it because she spent a long period in that place, cold grey walls. No windows. Or was it happening even long before then? She probably wouldn't have noticed if that was the case. After all, whenever she was with Kiryu, she always felt safe.
He always kept her safe and away from even the smallest dangerous. But he didn't baby her, he explained everything to her. The person she loves, her childhood friend and partner. All the demons she kept hidden in her darkness never emerged when he was around her. Just seeing him, was enough to hide the demons. They never emerged knowing Kiryu was there. But in her period of isolation, she found herself gradually going crazy.
And now, she's found someone.
Someone to help her calm down. She doesn't mean to use him, and she can't allow herself to rely on him. But right now, she really wants to see him.

8am.
"I didn't think you'd be here too."
"Oh? What's wrong with me trying out for a music award."
"For one, you just won one last year."
"It was boring, my only competition dropped out.
His gaze darkens, "You heard."
"Hm? About what?"
Damn. He wonders exactly how many people know. Boss, isn't exactly being subtle. If he keeps that up, then the Austin family will hunt them down much quicker. It's the inevitable that will happen eventually, even he isn't stupid to think that they'll win. Even so.
This woman who's kissing him now is a thing of the past, she's part of an old scar. He doesn't need someone like this anymore, especially not now.
"Haruka-kun...?"
!!! Seeing the blue hair girl at the door his eyes go wide. What the…why is she here?
"Found Haruka."
"Idiot, what are you doing here?
"Looking for you."
He can see that but why. Maybe it's because she's sick, but she used his name.
"Haruka, I missed you."
....
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Lila averts her gaze. Why didn't he get changed?
"You know I half expected you to come in, and at least wash my back for me."
