You lay on your back, staring at the ceiling. Emma walks back into the room and places a bag in front of you.
"Draken dropped a few things off for us to eat." Emma softly says smiling.
"I'm guessing he's going to that meeting thing?" You ask, sitting up slowly. Emma nods and opens the bag, pulling out a sandwich and peeling the plastic off. You sit up and look into the bag, pulling out a drink. Emma sighs before take a bite of the sandwich.
"What's wrong?" You ask. Emma looks at you and quickly chews her food and quickly swallowing it. She takes a deep breath and sits down across from you.
"I'm just- I don't understand why boys always result in fighting." She sighs. "Like... why do they have to fight all the time?" She asks, picking at her sandwich before taking another bite.
"I don't know..." You slowly say. She swallows her food and looks around her room before sighing again.
"I just find it all so stupid..." She pouts. "Boys are so stupid." She shakes her head. You smile and open the drink, slowly drinking from it. She watches you drink causing you to pause and look at her. Your eyes widen a bit, making you feel kind of anxious. "We should eat real quick so that we can sleep and have the whole day to hang out tomorrow!" She smiles. "And you can help me with ideas of asking Draken out. Hehe."
You smile and nod.
You stare at the dark ceiling. Your eyes relax as you think about what Mikey said but then they narrow when you think about that weird nightmare you had. You can't recall most of it now but it really scared you. You turn your head slowly to look at Emma who is sound asleep. You smile a bit. Emma is really cute... You think to yourself. Emma softly smiles causing your eyes to widen. Did she hear my thoughts? You question. She slowly opens her eyes and looks into yours.
"I'm that cute that you have to stare at me?" She smiles. You furrow your eyebrows and she softly giggles. "You know... being with you... I feel really understood. I'm happy I met you Yuki-" She soothes. "Thank you for being my friend." She bubbles.
"Yeah..." You smile back.
The morning comes and you and Emma make your way out the house. Emma looks up at the sky and then back at you.
"It's pretty cloudy... do you think it will rain?" Emma asks. You shrug. She sighs and then smiles back at you. "I wanna go back to that store we were at yesterday."
"You do?"
"Mhm... I wanna get something." She bubbles. You slowly nod and follow beside her.
You walk a while and look up at the sky when you feel the chilly breeze hit your face.
"Do you think... if it rains- do you think they will cancel the fight?" You ask. Emma looks at you and then shakes her head.
"Nope... those boys are stupid." She sighs.
"Mmm."
"Here we are!" She bubbles, pulling you into the store. You both slowly walk around the store. You look at all the stuff, smiling at the cute things. Emma disappears off to the side of the store. You slowly follow behind her and then stop when she smiles at you. You furrow your eyebrows wondering why she's smiling so much.
"I wanted to get these." She says showing you four different keychains. They are silver bears holding different colored hearts. One bear is holding a magenta heart, one is holding a orange heart, another holding red, and the other holding a lavender pink one. You tilt your head in confusion.
"What are those things?" You question.
"Keychains for us to match!" She bubbles.
"Why are there four of them?"
She smiles at you and then looks down at the keychains.
"I had this conversation with Draken yesterday... while you and Mikey were outside." She softly says, examining each keychain.
"..."
"Do you like Mikey?" She softly asks. You stare at her unable to respond. "Mikey loves you."
"Huh..."
"He might have not admitted it... or doesn't want to admit it- but he talks about you so much. Not even just that but- when he heard you possibly like Izana... my third brother- he got so jealous." She smiles. "I never seen him get so jealous over someone before." She laughs. "It's cute actually witnessing him having feelings and not being so- strong like... like how he usually is." She softly says. Her smile turning soft.
"..." She looks up at you and tilts her head.
"He's always been that way growing up. He's always had this strong act when things happen. He's never cried- not once." She takes a deep breath and smiles more. "But- when it came to you... he softened." She rubs her finger on one of the keychains. "Even though he seems like a tough guy... he's still a soft little baby."
You look down at the keychain in her hand.
"I didn't want to say this before but..." She walks closer to you. "Stay with us in Tokyo."
"Huh?"
"I want my best friend to be by my side..." She smiles. "I had a dream last night..." She soothes. "You and Mikey were together and me and Draken were getting married. And you were by my side." Tears begin to fill her eyes. "That dream made me so happy... I want it to really come true." She smiles. "I want to live the rest of my life with Draken... and my best friend."
Your eyes widen and then soften.
"So stay in Tokyo... with us." She says with a soft smile on her face. You smile too and then nod. Her eyes widen and she gets really bubbly.
"Then here!" She says walking up to the register and buying the keychains. After she does she puts the bear holding a lavender pink heart on your jacket. Then hands you the one holding a red heart. "Give this to Mikey... and admit your feelings to him Yuki..." She softly says. "And... then tomorrow... I'm going to give this one to Draken..." She says showing you the bear holding the orange heart. "AND... I'm going to tell him that I love him." She smiles at you. You smile back at her and then you nod.
The both of you walk out the store and Emma and you walk out the store and Emma stops, trying to put the keychain on.
VVVRRRRRRRRRR
You slowly look in the direction of the revving sound but then stop and look towards Emma when she tugs on your jacket.
"Hey... can you help me put mine on?" She softly asks. You nod. Grabbing onto her jacket and try putting the bear holding the magenta heart keychain on her jacket but then you drop a part of the keychain and crouch down to reach for it.
TIIIIING SNAP
You flinch when a motorcycle drives by the both of you very fast. Emma's keychain fell on the ground and its head broke off. Your heart drops and you quickly look up to see Emma staring down at the ground.
"Aw... did it break?" She asks reaching for it.
"Yeah..." You softly say, also reaching for it. She picks up the bottom part and you pick up the head.
"Dang it... should I buy another one- or do you think we will be able to glue it back on...?" She asks holding the bear.
"Mmm... we can just buy another one." You sigh and then awkwardly smile. She pouts a bit. "It's okay. I will buy you it... so that I can put it on you this time." You smile as you put the broken bear keychain in your jacket pocket. She smiles back. The two of you walk back into the store and you buy her another keychain. After, you both walk somewhere to get ice cream.
The day went on well. Soon night came and you grew worried for Mikey. But late that night he returns with a bruised face and a smile on his face and beside him is Izana. Your eyes widen when you see him. He smiles when he sees you.
"Izana."
"Hi Yuki." He softly says.
"Izana?" Emma looks at Izana with wide eyes. He smiles at Emma and Emma hugs him. You smile seeing that they were getting along. You decide to walk to your grandmother's house and talk to her but Mikey stops you.
"Where are you going?" He softly asks.
"I'm going to my grandma's house... I want to talk to her."
"Well... let me take you." He softly says. You smile and nod. Emma pulls Izana into the house. You get on the bike and hold onto Mikey as you both ride to your grandparents house. Once you get there you jump off the bike and quickly walk up the stairs but then you stop when you see Mikey staring up at you, waiting for you to go in. You smile and take a deep breath, jumping down the stairs and walking up to him.
"... I love you Mikey." You softly say. His eyes widen when you say that. You smile really hard. "I want to stay in Tokyo... to stay with you and Emma... and everyone else." You softly bubble. He leans his head to make you look at him.
"I love you too Yuki..." Mikey softly says. You smile more and kiss him on the lips. He kisses you back. You pull away and hold out the bear that's holding a red heart.
"I want you to have this." You smile, placing it on his jacket. He smiles back at you. You turn back and skip up the stairs. After knocking on the door and your grandmother lets you come inside, you watch Mikey pull away. Your heart full of happiness.
The next day comes, you and Mikey go for a ride like he promised you. The day you two became a couple. The same day Draken and Emma also became a couple.
Life feels great now. You and Mikey are a couple. Emma and Draken are also a couple. You and Izana run the bakery together. Baji and Mikey are best friends again. You and Chifuyu became even bigger friends. And for Hina-
"TAKEMICHI!" She shouts, tears filling her eyes.
"H-HinA..." Takemichi looks at Hina in shock. She approaches him and punches him in the stomach causing him to hunch over.
"WHY DID YOU LEAVE AND NOT TELL ME ANYTHING YOU IDIOT!" She cries. "I WAS SO WORRIED FOR YOU! YOU HAVE NO IDEA!" She grabs him by the shirt collar and wraps her arms around him. Takemichi's eyes widen then he frowns. He slowly begins to cry. Your eyes soften when you see the both of them.
"Is this the Takemitchy you were talking about that one time?" Mikey asks, looking at you. You slowly nod. "Hmm... he seems kinda lame."
"Eh? No- I think he's cool..." You sigh. Mikey smiles at you.
"Aww..." Emma smiles at Hina. "I'm happy for Hina." She says with a big smile on her face.
"Yeah." You nod. Draken furrows his eyebrows, making a confused face when he looks at Takemichi.
"When Hina spoke about Takemichi- I didn't think he would be- like that." Draken says. Both you and Emma look at him. Mikey laughs and then walks up to Takemichi.
"What's up Takemitchy."
"Eh? Takemitchy?" Takemichi looks at Mikey confused.
You smile watching Mikey and Draken interrogate him. You, Emma, and Hina giggle together.
Days turn into weeks... weeks turn into years... and the day has came.
Emma and Draken are getting married. You smile as you watch them kiss. You never felt happier. Emma looks back at you and smiles. You smile more. Draken and Emma are slowly walking out the wedding venue going down to the car, as they are going on their honeymoon. Your eyes widen and you quickly turn and run back into the venue. Mikey notices and follows behind you.
"Where are you going?" He asks. You look back at Mikey whose hair is cut short and black.
"I need to grab my phone from my jacket... I want to take a picture of this moment before they leave." You quickly say.
"You sound like one of those mothers who takes a picture of everything..." He chuckles. "Didn't you take enough pictures?"
"No! I need to take one more! This moment is special!" You shout as you rush towards your jacket. Mikey sighs and puts his hands in his pocket.
"Alright... hurry up... they are almost down the stairs."
"Yep yep." You reach your hand into your jacket pocket and then furrow your eyebrows when you feel something unfamiliar. "Huh... what is this?" You pull out a cold metal feeling material out of the pocket. Your eyes widen when you see what it was. It's the bear keychain... Emma's bear keychain... its head broken off its body. You drop the head and you quickly crouch down to pick it up. You slowly turn your head to look at Mikey.
"..." You stare back at the keychain in your hand.
"Vrrooooom..." You furrow your eyebrows and look back up at Mikey.
"Huh?"
"Vvvvvvvvvrrrrrr..." His mouth moves to the sound. You tilt your head a bit feeling confused.
THUD
You slowly turn your towards the thud sound. Your eyes widen when you see Emma laying on the ground.
VRRRRRRRRRRR....
Your eyes then shift towards the two people on the motorcycle. The person in the front, revving the motorcycle. One of them holding a bat and they are both facing your way.
That's right... that was all just a dream...
VRRRRROOOOOOOOOOM
The guy on the back of the bike rides up on you, holding the bat up, preparing to swing it at you. That's when you see him.
"Kisaki..."
TO BE CONTINUED SEPTEMBER 14TH!
