A few days later - Iro road high school.

Yuhi walked down the long halls. It was hotter than usual today, and he felt the sweat cling to his shirt. He was heading in the direction of the pool. 'It's better to take a dip.' His thoughts broke off when he heard rushing footsteps approach him.

He didn't need to turn to see that the people were panicking about something. Gee, and from the looks of it, it just has to be in the direction that he was heading.

Terashima Yuhi wasn't amused at all. That damned Akatsuki, he knows that the deadline is today, and he goes around accepting another job. What's more, it just has to be in a big studio.

'I decided it was better to go to school, but in the end, I will still have to go to work.'

People have stopped him several times to ask if he came here to meet with some idols. Those people ask such pointless questions.

Yuhi did not intend to go to school initially. But when he thought of what Sumire would say, he ended up here again.

He wanted to delay as much as possible going to work, knowing what kind of job it was—a job working with some female models. Then again, he is equally in a pinch here. 'Working with female students from the fashion course.'

However, he didn't have much of a choice. They had to get the piece put together, and it just so happens Akatsuki has the other parts he needed to finish.

Yuhi deeply sighed; this is the reason why he didn't want to pair up with the guy in the first place. But with that particular piece, one needed a partner.

No matter how well he could draw, even he couldn't solo the project this time. This is why he chose Akatsuki, and it's not as though he had many to choose from.

When he arrived at the area, Akatsuki waved him over. "Ah! Just the guy I wanted to see."

His eyes twitched in annoyance."Oi, you qu---" Yuhi trailed off.

The members of Quatro light were using the gym stage and performing.

Quite some time has passed since they came here. But he does not see them enough.

"They just came back from a tour, from the looks of it."

Tour huh? So that explains everything. But if that's the case then, he scanned the room, hoping to see brunette or blonde.

He knew that the girl had a habit of changing between the hair colors ever so often. But he never fails to recognize her.

His scanning didn't go unnoticed, but not by his friend.

"Mimi isn't here, you know? She's at a banquet."

The voice belonged to none other than a certain maroon-colored haired boy. Quatro light's leader Maon Kou.

"Banquet?"

"To meet her beloved fiance. She would have seen him sooner, but she came with us during the tour." Kou explained.

Iwa Ran hit the guy over the head. "Oi don't say that."

Tetsuo nods. "Indeed. It is merely a formal greeting."

Meeting her fiance, huh? Several images appeared in his head. 'I still can't get along with that guy, but he does not directly interfere with his relationship with Sumire.'

"However, perhaps that wording isn't incorrect or inappropriate as your all thinking. Somebody informed me about it that day. 'There is a person she wants to see again. I am sure it's Makoto."

Yuhi doesn't respond. But his thoughts spiraled out of control. Whenever it came to that girl, after all, he was never able to remain calm.

The emotions he buried away due to the scars from his childhood.

"Nay madam seems thy know."

"Yuhi?"

A perfect plan doesn't mean having everything go within expectations. Others can achieve an ideal plan when it has the capacity to deal with problems that may or may not arise.

Ibuki Sumire's lifestyle is something that agrees and fits that statement perfectly.

"If Yuhi-san is quoting Shakespeare, I have to capture the moment."

His thoughts broke off when he heard a familiar voice and laughed. Of course, she always appears whenever he becomes easy. Before he can have any more negative thoughts, she would appear.

Yuhi stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her waist. He brushed his forehead against hers. "I thought I would see you in a fancy dress."

Sumire sighed and rolled her eyes. "You should stop enforcing your fetishes on your girlfriend."

"Is that so? Maybe I can enforce it on my wife."

"Silly."

Yuhi felt her hands on his. Sumire wasn't wearing a dress, but she wore quite formal clothing. "Were you with Nagawa?"

"Yes."

Lately, he heard rumors that Sumire keeps dragging Nagawa with her. It would be a lie to say that the rumors didn't bother him. But he does not want to make her feel uneasy.

He was a fugitive with dirty, blood-stained hands. He lived that way for many years, and yet when he met her, that changed. It all changed when he met this girl.

"Mimi." Kou stepped forward. "Since you are here, maybe you should perform too."

Sumire sighed. "No, thank you, I came here to attack Yuhi-san but look at him not getting the hint at all."

Yuhi froze when he heard those words. What crazy thing is she thinking now? Then again, she said something similar recently, didn't she.

Yuhi awkwardly scratched his hair. "I'm just surprised to see you."

"Well, please get over it and take me away already."

'Goodness, what do I do with her..' Moreover, it was difficult to do what she wanted since he felt a pair of hostile gazes on him. Gazes from two people, Maon Kou and Iwa Ran.

"I want to see you sing too."

"Well, it seems I can't avoid it." Sumire reluctantly pulled away from him.

The absence of warmth in his arms upset him greatly. But such thoughts vanished when he felt a pair of soft lips on his.

"Then Yuhi-san, let's continue this later."

Yuhi nodded and watched as she walked onto the stage. The students who gathered around to watch Quatro light slowly dispersed, but some remained. He even saw people take out their phones. 'Those people are doing that on purpose.'

Kira Jun spoke up. "Don't bother, and she won't appreciate it even if you stand up for her."

"I know." He understood that about her very well.

"Besides, these people will regret it in the next second."

Sumire sat down in front of the piano, and a gorgeous melody filled the arena. A soft and gentle voice.

"I love you, hurray!

I'm glad you're here; our present is right here.

I love you, hurray!

This is just the beginning, best regards for tomorrow - this isn't the goal line.

Smile! If you're sad, love will blow it away.

When you smile, the scenery will change, and the sun will peek out.

Even when you're uneasy, the road that leads to happiness.

Can be seen in the blue sky."
