I was shocked st the sudden confidence Mitsuba used to asked me to the dance even if he seemed so nervous to ask. I wonder why he asked me but I won't ask about it. The day Mitsuba was getting discharged from the hospital was the day I ran into Emiko on the way to school in her new School uniform, "Kou-Senpai! I never seen you around here for the first 4 days! How have you been? Is Mitsuba alright?" I was a little pissed, she acting like nothing happened, her School's uniform was a lot different from ours, she wore a white collared shirt, with a black vest and black skirt with red trim, similar to our School's uniform.
"I don't want to talk to you Emiko, I don't even want to see your face again, I'm seeing Mitsuba today for the first time after what you did."
"I really didn't mean it! I understand if you will never forgive me! But I was wondering if I could apologize to Mitsuba for me. I'll try my best to be late for you." She walked away with tears in her eyes but I didn't care less but I'll do her a favor and it would be the last favor I will do for her ever. I entered my school and was greeted by the kind, cocky pinked hair boy
Hanging out with the broadcasting club?
"Minamoto Kun?" The pretty girl with green said, she was different from every girl in school, she was cold, beautiful, and wore the uniform with long sleeves. Her name meaning cherry blossom never really suited her as much as she signed like a cherry blossom in personality, but in looks.
Natsuhiko, was a fool of himself, stupid but good looking in some way, he likes to flirt with Mitsuba whenever he is alon with him and is catching traits of a playboy. I could not even describe Tsukasa other than he is a demon.
Sakura, walked over to me and cupped cheek and looked up and down at me, "You look different from usual... Mitsuba? Does your boyfriend look different" Mitsuba's face turned red and ran over to Sakura and slapped her hand off my cheek and yelled at her, "He's not my boyfriend!"
"Not yet.." I whispered to myself.
"What was that? Pervert."
"Nothing! Let's get to class shall we? Oh and I ran into Emiko today! She wanted to apologize to you I guess?"
"Hearing her name freaks me out! Her name legitly means 'Beauitful child, or blessed child, smiling child' she is neither of those things!

(Prom night)
On the way out the school gates I waited for Mitsuba and Teru walked passed me and looked towards me and bended down to my height, "You going to the dance with Mitsuba right?" I nodded and he patted my head, "I got rejected" I stood there surprised, Teru? Rejected? Noone ever rejects Teru.
"W-Who?!"
"Aoi"
(Akane)
"That's unfortunate, I'm sorry Teru.."
"I'm sure he will change his mind eventually!"
Keep dreaming Teru...keep dreaming.
I got caught up with Mitsuba around 5 minute later and we walked home together, I could not trust Mitsuba being alone after what happened a couple of days ago. I feel better if someone walked Mitsuba home everyday for the rest of the time he remains in School. As I was about to leave when I arrived at his house, I was stopped by a women running towards me and forcing me to face her, "Are you Mitsuba's crush?!" I titled my head in confused and Mitsuba ran towards his mother, trying to cover the situation and kept telling at his mother, "Shut up no he's not!"
"You poor thing! Mitsuba must have been so rude to you! You don't deserve him, your such a pretty young man! His scarf is ugly anyways!"
Ouch..
I quietly laughed to myself and excused myself, walking home to eat ready, even if I had no idea what I was gonna well. If I was going to the dance with Mitsuba, I want to look my best for him! I slipped on a white button up shirt, with a blue coat over and dark blue pants. I borrowed a tie from Teru and wore my black shoes. For once I liked how I looked in the mirror. I left the house a little later and walked to school and surprisingly with Teru.
"Your going to the dance by yourself?"
"He accepted last minute, besides, it's gonna bey last one before I go off to college anyways!"
When we arrived, we headed to the gym and the room was crowed and I ran away from the crowd when the fangirls began asking my brother to dance with him and I ran to my friends Yashiro and Amane. Yashiro was wearing a long baby pink dress with red rose patterns at the bottom, and her hair was tied up in a hairstyle that was similar to Aoi's. Amane was wearing a red shirt with a black jacket over it and long black pans with brown shoes.
"I'm surprised Tsukasa ain't with you?"
"I slipped a sleeping pill in his lunch because I knew he would find any excuse I should not go."
What a relief.
I heard many girls squealing and yelling when someone walked in. I turned around to find Mitsuba surrounded by a couple of girls. I blushed when we made eye contact. He was in a white collared shirt with a black tie and vest black pants and shoes, a lot unusual from her current style. His bangs were no longer covering his eye and was parted to the sides, allowing to see both of his eyes, he also has red rose in his hair. He is very pretty and he walked over to me, acting like a gentleman and Amane yelled, "what the hell did you do to Mitsuba?! You look so different!"
"I thought I would change some stuff, I didn't think girls would be coming at me all a sudden of this change, don't expect something like this, I'm still keeping my current style!" I didn't mind if Mitsuba changed his style as long as he is still the same regardless of what he wears.
I cleared my throat and bended down gosling my hand out for Mitsuba and asked him, "Sousuke? Would you dance with me?" His face had a pink tint which looked cute on him and he bowed nodding and took my hand and I took him to the middle where the other couples were dancing.
(If y'all watch Beauty and the beast bland sleeping beauty, basically that is how Mitsuba and Kou are dancing)
I spun Mitsuba around and I catched him , gently pulling him back his feet, allowing me to grab on his waist a little, I spun him around again and grabbed his hands and pulled him closer to me, and did more of a slow dance kind of thing, moving slowly. Unfortunately, a girl tripped, bumping into Mitsuba which led both of us to fall while I protected Mitsuba's head. I got myself up off ontop of him and I picked him up. Mitsuba and I were bored and wanted to be alone so we walked out of the gym and snuck to the back of the school and sat at the bench with Mitsuba next to me.
"Hey Mitsuba, I never asked before but I always wanted to ask, why did you change School's?"
His eyes wided in a sudden shock and he shakes a little. I wonder if I hit something in him like a sharp blade I quickly tried to to change to topic but he answered anyways,
"Well um, I was always bullied at my former School. I never did anything wrong to them, during elementary I was bullied for being myself, maybe because I was rude and cocky and looked girly, during middle and highschool I wanted that to change so I tried to put more on a gentle persona, that failed once again when those same kids had to expose me and continued onto highschool. Eventually I got tired and attacked that kid pretty b-badly...he started bleeding and I was scared of the punishment I was gonna receive, but there was enough evidence that I was mainly a victim and I was defending myself. I was suspended of course but only for a little, I begged my mom to elt me change School's and she somehow accepted, and here I am I guess.."
The innocent cute gentle student, with a cocky and rude persona, who is really looking for a friend to be with them for the end. Teru always told me that demons and people that are complete opposite are filthy people, but he knows deep down that humans can be sick creatures. Mitsuba never did anything wrong to deserve it, he spend so much of his life trying to find a reason why he given a life like his.
I pulled Mitsuba closer to me hearing him mumble, "K-Kou?" I cupped his cheek and leaned in closer, pulling him into a kiss. His lips were soft, gentle, I stayed there for about another 11 seconds before pulling back for air. I was about to say something before-
"Hey Kou! Mitsuba! There you are!" I heard Natsuhiko yelled and he stood there in a sudden shock. "Oh- did I interrupt something?"
"Actually you did, but it's fine. I believe the dance will be ending soon anyways..what did you want anyways?"
"Well you left without telling Amane and Yashiro and they sent me out to look for you because they were busy dancing, what were you doing anyways?"
"Nothing that concerns you, Natsuhiko. I think me and Mitsuba will be leaving now.."
Natsuhiko nodded and walked back inside, I was kinda pissed he ruined the moment, "Need me to walk you home Mitsuba?" He nodded and smiled so warmly and we walked home together.
Maybe one day, and soon,
I will be able to muster up the courage to tell Mitsuba I loved him.
What I failed to tell him was asking him on a date.
