Len's P.O.V

Hmmm, let's see... How am I going to explain to my parents that I am currently ditching school because the girl I love suddenly dragged me away? I'll say evil monkeys did it. Yeah, that is so believable.

So yeah, we are currently walking down some street in some place... Where is Rin taking me?

"Eh Rin, where are we going?"

"Oh, I thought we might as well go to the mall since there is no where else to go." She replied smoothly.  

"Oh, okay." I said

She was still holding my hand and you know what? It felt great. I hoped she wouldn't notice it any time soon because I didn't want it to end.

We reached a bench stop looking thing and stopped.

"Why did we stop?" I asked in a confused manner.


"To catch the bus, duh."

"Ohhh... But how do you know which one to take?" I questioned, still pretty confused.

"You don't know the bus routes?!" She asked incredulously.

"Well excuse me for not being trained in the art of public transportion!" I replied defiantly.

"No matter how fancily you word it, it's still just called "taking the Metro".

?.·°??°· °?


We finally reached the mall. I was a little skeptical at first because I wasn't sure of what to expect from Rin at the mall. You know ever since I was about 11, Kaito had told me the Mall Women myth. Supposedly, women get caught in some kind of trance as soon as they breathe mall air and turn into zombies. They go on a frenzy to buy things, as if their life depended on it. They will turn into savage beasts when fighting over a "cute pair of shoes" or whatever Kaito said. According to the legend, they could stay hours in a single shop and not get tired. They say some don't even come out alive...

"Uhh Len? You still there?" Rin asked, waving a hand in front of my face.

"Ugh yeah sorry I zoned out."

"Tell me about it, you turned pale. What were you thinking of?"

"Mall zombie- I mean mall er- stuff."

"Hahaha, okay. So what do you want to do?"


"Hmm, I don't know how about-mall police."

"Mall police, that isn't an option!"Rin joked.

"No, mall police right there! In case you haven't noticed we're still in our school uniforms. Crap, my parents will be notified and I'll be in trouble and-"

I was cut off my Rin who placed a small hand over my mouth.

"Shhhh... We won't get caught, trust me."

Me? Trust a girl?! Well if it's Rin I guess I could... Wait, I have an idea!

"Come on." I said, grabbing her hand. For once, I had taken her hand, not the other way around. She looked surprised but got up and followed me anyways.

We entered one of those small clothing stores. Yeah, I swallowed my pride whole and went in. It was full of racks and racks of clothes. I looked over at Rin. She still seemed normal enough, no sign of zombie actions anywhere.

"Umm excuse me madam do you have any clothes our size?" I asked a lady that worked there.

"Ehh, your sizes are pretty small... Since this is a mostly bigger sizes store I'm not sure." She said and lead us to this other section.

After looking around for a while, the lady *reads said lady's name tag* er- Martha, finally came back with two hangers with clothes.

Apparently, there had only been that outfit left... A couple's outfit. The lady- er- Martha, said it was very "trendy" these days. Well this was going to be my only way out of a fine....

I nodded and grabbed the clothes. I grabbed Rin with my other free hand and steered her towards the dressing rooms.

"Len what are we-" this time it was my turn to cover her mouth. I heard talking going on outside.

"Have you seen two school children around here? I am pretty sure they are cutting class and I need to catch them."

I motioned for Rin to start dressing while I looked out the crack that the hinges provided. A uniformed officer was talking to Martha and most likely asking about us.

Since I am awesome and stuff, I had already begun undressing, and spying on the cop all at the same time. I turned to find an extremely beet red Rin fully clothed in her uniform, staring at me. What was she staring a-ahhh I see, hmmm I still hadn't put my shirt on yet.

"Like what you see?" I teased.

She flushed even darker and looked away.

"I'm just kidding, hurry up and undress and get in the new outfit. We'll get caught if we're seen in our uniform." I said while pulling the shirt over my head and onto my torso.

"B-but... Turn around then!"

"Fine fine..." I said as I kept an eye on the officer.

To think that if I just turned around, Rin would be there... Without a shirt... Stupid Kaito has corrupted my once innocent mind!!!

My pervy thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Martha yelling.

"No, you can't go in there! There is a couple changing in there!!! Do not!!!"

The cop was coming our way, moving Martha aside.

Crap, think Len think!!!!

I turned around and saw that Rin was barely putting on the new shirt on... And that she had a striped orange bra. Too slow! I hope Rin will forgive me for what I'm about to do...

In a quick motion I turned to face her and pinned her against the booth wall. Rin's eyes widened in shock and surprise... I knew she was about to kick me in my soft spot or yell so I did something... Unthinkable.

I placed my lips atop hers, making her eyes bulge once more.

Her hands clenched and tried to move but one of mines was enough to cover both of hers, which were high above her head. If I didn't have her pinned down she would've probably kicked,slapped, and punched me right then and there. She protested some more but soon gave in to the kiss. My free hand took a hold of her hip, and I licked her bottom lip with the tip of my tongue, asking for permission to enter. Rin's eyes widened and she shut her mouth tightly. I laughed, this was probably her first time french kissing... But didn't she use to have a boyfriend? That is when the cop entered.

Yeah so we were in one of those awkward situations... I had Rin pinned against the wall, my hand on her hip and her shirt halfway on. We turned around to look at him. The police colored and looked from Rin to me, me to Rin. He cleared his throat before mumbling a quick "sorry for intruding" and leaving.

Martha peeked and saw us in our current position, squeaked and turned around.

I sighed and let go of Rin. I turned towards the door and once again locked it, trying to hide the dark blush that dusted my cheeks.

"Sorry for doing that, Rin. I had to or else we were going to get caught."

"Hmph... At least give a warning next time! And no more kissing!!!!"

I nodded and stared at her still unclothed chest. Hmm, a B- cup maybe early C-

"PERVERT!" Rin yelled and slapped me across the face. Heh, I guess she noticed I was staring.

"Sorry!"

?.·°??°· °?


We were currently at the cashier, paying Martha for the clothes. She had then suggested many accessories that I ended up buying. Well, there goes a hundred dollars and thirty cents...

Just three hundred more to go.


Rin's P.O.V

So... Yeah...

I'm...

At the mall...

With Len.

This is kinda frustrating... So I have these funny feelings for Len. It's like... Ughhhhh I don't know! Getting into the same stall and seeing him shirtless did not help. At all. And above all he kissed me! He friggin kissed me! The nerve....

So now, as we were walking around I was wondering, what do I really feel towards him?

I took a peek at him. He had a red jacket with black stripes on the side, and a yellow "L" on the left front side... How convenient, eh? Len was also wearing a black cap and his shirt was gray with a yellow tie stamped on it. Heh, no he did not look totally hot in that. Heh, before I never even glanced twice at this guy and now I am thinking he is hot?....FORGET WHAT I JUST SAID -er...THOUGHT!!!!

He caught my gaze and I quickly turned my head, the star earrings I was wearing swinging furiously. Why did he give me a weird look? Can he read my mind?!

I put my hands in the pockets of the new jacket Len had bought for me. It was white, orange and yellow...my favorite colors. Under it I had a black long shirt and black leggings on. The high-top sneakers I wore made squeaking noises on the shiny reflective tiled floor. Ahhh for god's sake the only thing I owned before was the bow and my body!!! Oh and my backpack... Everything else on me he bought it for me!!! Gaaaaahhhh and it looks so cool!!! Crap, good thing Haku isn't here...Stupid Len, why are you making my heart beat fast?!!!

"Rin, want something to eat?" Len asked me.

"Umm, sure!" I said, trying to tone down the blooming blush forming on my face.

He pointed to a pizzeria, "Is that good?"

I nodded, staring at all the reflection son the tiled floor. So many vivid colors...

"Sit down at the food court open eating area, I'll go as soon as I'm done ordering."

I nodded and walked away. Gosh, it seems like all I do now a days is nod. The star necklace I wore swung around, left right, left right, reflecting the golden sunlight.

I slid into a smooth cool navy blue chair. All around me were a lot of people, all chatting away or reading a book. My hands instinctively clenched around the edge of my sweater. I was never one to love crowds. Why did we even come here? Agh, stupid Len! Why don't you let me think straight??!!!

Talking about-er thinking about Len, shouldn't he be back by now?

I got up and went in search for any sign of either the pair of cerulean eyes or golden hair that had become so familiar to me. Hah! If Miku could hear me now!...or Haku. Both work.

Len's P.O.V

Why is this line so long? I thought to myself as I stood in line, furiously drumming my fingers on my arm.

Suddenly, someone grabbed me from behind. Yep, just like that, out of nowhere.

"Ah! Rin?!" I questioned nervously.

"Guessed wrong, Lenny!" A sweet voice said.

I cringed as the arms let go of me... That was a voice I wouldn't be likely to forget anytime soon...

"Miki?!"

The red head smiled and twirled a strand of her long hair between two fingers.

"Miss me?"

"What the hell are you doing here?!"

"That's a rude way to talk to a lady! Especially, your girlfriend!" Miki replied, obviously avoiding the first question.

I rolled my eyes, "How many times do I have to tell you this? We are over!!!"

"I know you were saying that because you thought you liked Flat Chest but now you realize you love me, ne?" She said cheerfully.

"What are you talking about? I wasn't sure about it before, but now I know that I love Rin Kagamine." I said in an even tone.

"Ha! Sure you do! In a week she will be forgotten just like the rest of us!" Miki retorted with a snicker.

"In case you didn't hear me, I LOVE Rin. I have no need to go dumping idiots around who idolize me anymore." I seethed, "That was the old me."

Miki frowned and her bottom lip stuck out in a pout. Her burgandy eyes flickered to the left and she smirked. As fast as lightning, she scooped my face between her hands and kissed me.

SHE. KISSED. ME.

Okay, okay, so you know how I used to be a "playboy" and hung around a lot of girls right? Right?

...So I might've started kissing her back... UNINTENTIONALLY!!!

That's when I realized... It's Miki we are talking about.

I heard a small gasp come from my left. I tried pushing Miki off and she stayed stuck like glue until I got away from her grip and she let go, still keeping her satisfied smirk in place. What was she so smug about?!

I turned to where I had heard the gasp come from and saw...

Rin.

Her blue eyes were widened in shock. Her small lips moved slowly, as if mumbling something to herself. Rin slowly shook her head, trying to shake the image out of her head. I looked over to Miki who was enjoying Rin's reaction. So that's why! Stupid bitch had planned it all along!!!


"Rin! It's not what it looks like!"

Rin backed up and turned around, clutching her arms close to her chest. Her body trembled and I actually thought she was crying until she turned to face us. Her beautiful sparkling sea blue eyes had turned dark and cold. She ran up towards us and stood face to face with me, just like that time in the classroom. Rin was staring daggers at me and all I could do was gulp. She then slapped me across the face, making my head turn to the right.

She smiled cruelly and whispered, "I knew you wouldn't change."

Miki was enjoying this all. Her eyes shone and sparkled when she slapped me. That bitch...

Rin stopped at a table and got a milkshake from it. She smiled evilly and walked towards me. I closed my eyes and waited for the milk to fall on me but it never did.

"Kyaaaaa!!!!"

My blue eyes snapped open and I couldn't believe what was before my eyes. Rin had spilled the milkshake all over... Miki. The red head was now flailing her arms helplessly yelling out incoherent words. She reddened with anger and now it was Rin's turn to look smug.

She blue eyes landed on me, "Have fun cleaning that up."

Then she left. Just like that.

"Wait!!!" I called out to her retreating form, but she just ignored me.


Rin's P.O.V

I pushed past people, my backpack swinging from my shoulder.

How could I have believed he had changed?! But it didn't matter, right? Because after all I don't love him or anything right?! Right?!

As soon as I was out of the mall, my defenses began to deteriorate, the pieces slowly falling. Only half of my once complete shield remained. My feet dragged me towards the bust stop, sliding against the coarse cement. I gulped back the tears as I boarded the bus. I can't break down in the middle of a crowd, I repeated in my mind.

My eyesight began to blur and I knew I wouldn't last long. After what seemed like forever, I arrived at my stop and I rushed out of the bus... Only to find out that it wasn't my stop.

If I was right then I was about five blocks away from my stop, which meant ten blocks from home. How did I screw up so badly?! Argh, Len never lets me think straight!

In my frenzy of trying to sort out my thoughts and stuff, I began to cross an empty looking street. Yeah that's how messed up I was.

I heard the screeching noises of wheels but it took me a while to register what they were. I turned to see a black car coming towards me...fast. I looked to the other side and my heart leapt in panic. I wouldn't make it, my feet wouldn't move... Time slowed down and I knew it was the end for me.

Is this what my mother felt before she died?

"WATCH OUT!!!!!"

I tried to locate the familiar sounding voice that had snapped me out of my trance. Who said that?! I didn't have time to react to anything else because I was violently tackled out of harm's way. I even felt the wind against me when the car zoomed by. That was how close I had come to getting run over... My whole life had just flashed before my eyes... And it was all thanks to the person who was currently still on top of me... Who was...?

"Are you okay Rin?"

I tried to look up but was blinded by the menacing sun. Wait how did he know my name?!

Once my vision had cleared, I looked up to the face of my savior... And I couldn't believe who it was...

"Mikuo?!" I asked incredulously.

His teal eyes shone with amusement and he smiled, "The one and only."

I just stared at him with my mouth agape. If I had any manners I would've immediately thanked him for saving my life but all I could do what stare... Heh, Mikuo is kinda hot when you look at him from this view... WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING?!

"How...why -er thanks for saving me. I-I don't think I'd be alive right now if it weren't for you." I said blushing a little.

"No problem. 'Cause you know it's what I always do, look for girls in distress and save them. Especially pretty ones like you."

Pretty?

I knew I shouldn't take his comment seriously seeing as he was the same as Len and flirted with girls all the time, but it still left me a little flustered.

"Argh! What am I doing?! I shouldn't be even closely flirting with you! Len's gonna kill me!" He muttered in dismay.

Len?! Did he know about what was going on between me and him? Argh! There is nothing between us!

"Meh, stupid idiot is probably still making out with Miki...or cleaning her up... or both."

He raised a teal eyebrow, questioning me silently.

I looked around as if by doing that I could find what to tell him. I just had this feeling of... I don't know how to explain it. I just felt indebted to tell Mikuo why I was absent mindedly crossing streets in the first place.

"Miki?" He spoke finally, "as in Len's ex-girlfriend?"

I nodded, "Yeah, though I'm not so sure about the ex part."

"Hmmm from what I know, he broke up with Miki about a week ago didn't he? I may have been absent for half the week, but," Mikuo said as he fished a black cellphone out of his pocket, "I have ways of knowing things."

I sighed, Kaito and Gakupo would make sure to tell him. Plus, Miku is his freakin' sister! Of course he would be up to date on the news!

"Well he may have said that but..." I had to stop and leave my thought unfinished or risk letting him see my weak side, which no one ever saw... Well almost no one.

"Listen, I don't really know what's going on between you and Len but I'm pretty sure I can't help you. So we'll have to go visit an expert."

An expert?

"How 'bout I take you home? Miku would probably be thrilled to have you visit. Then you guys could talk about your er- girl issues." He said, giving me a warm smile that made my heart skip a beat.

I smiled, anywhere was better than facing Len again.

"Okay... And thanks again for saving me." I said softly.

"It was no problem! Heh, I had just finished eating anyway so it was a good workout! I was glad that I was in the right place at the right time." He chuckled.

His ringtone went off and he raised the phone to his ear.

"Hello? Miku? Yes, can you send Kotaru for us?... Yea we have company. I'll tell you when we get there. Mhm. Okay, bye!"

"Kotaru is on his way. My parents won't let me drive until next year... Even if I'm sixteen already." Mikuo sighed.

I smiled and we started walking to the corner. I had never realized what good company Mikuo could be. Maybe I just never took him seriously since he was always flirting with Luka and Meiko.

A black luxury car pulled up. I shook the awe away, I had forgotten that Len wasn't the only one with a big bank account. Better yet, I was the only one who didn't have luxurious stuff.

"Come on Rin," Mikuo said as he opened the door, "Let's go."

?.·°??°· °?


"Rinny!" Miku exclaimed as she hugged me, "I didn't know it was YOU who was coming!"

I just gave her one of my fake smiles and entered the Hatsune household.

It was pretty big, about three times as big as my apartment. Everything was neatly adorned, perfectly in place.

"How did you guys meet up anyways?" She asked while nibbling on a cookie.

"Well I-uh, your brother saved my life." I said while staring at the green and white specks on the cookie in my hand.

"Really?" She asked, her teal eyes darting towards Mikuo.

"Y-yeah... I was about to get run over." I admitted.

"Why? Weren't you paying attention to the road?" Her incredibly long hair whipped around as she emphasized her words.

"I... Len...I..."

"Hmm... I see." She turned to face her brother, "Mikuo can you give us some private time?"

The teal haired guy looked up with his cheeks full of cookies, "Mfff, shwo thnmg."

He got up and left into some corridor, leaving us both in the privacy of his sister's bedroom.

Miku bit her bottom lip and got up from the white couch on which we were sitting.

"Look Rin, before you continue, there is something I want to tell you..."

I looked up at her quizzically, "Tell me what?"

She turned around, her teal pigtails swinging with every movement. Quickly, she turned around and kneeled infront of me. What was going on?

"I am so sorry..." She said when she looked up to me. A gasp escaped my lips as I saw she was crying. Tiny rivers traced her pretty face. Her teal eyes had become the holding place for pools of water. The sky had darkened, as if feeling sorry for the weeping girl.

"Sorry for what?" I asked, still not getting what she was trying to say.

"I-I was never a good friend. E-even after I learned about your m-mother's death, I did nothing to help you. I-It was always only about m-me. Instead o-of me, your supposedly best friend, helping you, it was Len." She sobbed.

I was taken a-back. Len?

"Len?" I whispered.

"Y-yeah... You think we don't notice how you two act around each other? A-after you met him you weren't so shy anymore. You became more sociable." Miku said, laughing at the last part.

"T-that is why I want to become a good friend now," she said and wiped her tears, "So I want you to tell me everything that led up to today."

I smiled a sincere one, and patted her teal head. "Alright."

I told her everything, my life being spread out on the linoleum floor, ready for inspection. I told her all the events, from that horrible night and almost being raped to meeting Len and seeing him kissing Miki. By the time I was finished, Miki seemed like in some kind of trance, still processing everything. Once again, I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders... Just like when I told Len. Except this time, it was my friend who was hearing, and she would have a closer understanding to my pain.

"I-I don't know what to say..." Miku said at last.

I was about to say something when she tackled me in a tight hug. "Why didn't you ever tell me you had suffered so much?! Why?! I am such a bad person!!"

Her shoulders began to shake and I knew she was crying again. But the surprising thing was that I could feel salty water trails on my own face. I held her tight, and we both cried. Cried for sadness, cried for joy.

"H-hey, no need to cry..." Miku said at last, "It all has passed."

"B-but I actually thought Len had changed... Even if it was just a little bit."

"Hmm, you said he was kissing Miki?" She asked, "Well since you don't like him, why would you care who he kisses?"

"I-uh...but..." I mumbled incoherently. She was right... Does that mean I DO like Len?! I felt my face heat up besides the fact that I was or had been crying.

"Heh, you're so cute. I know what you are feeling. But let me tell you something... Did you actually ask him what was going on?"

"Huh? No... I just spilled milkshake all over Miki..." I admitted.

"See? Maybe it wasn't the way it seemed..."

"But I saw them kissing!!!! How could that have another side to it?! Len is just a stupid playboy jerk and there is no changing that!!!" I yelled without meaning to.

"Yet, you already have changed that..." Miku said softly.

I looked up at her, and she smiled sadly.

"Many of us have tried to change him. Try to make him look at one girl and one girl only..."

I formed an "o" with my lips as I realized that she had included herself in the "us" part. I had almost forgotten that she had once dated Len too.

"I especially wanted to be his 'one and only'... Heh, but it didn't work out. It never did. He took on a new girl every two days... Len dumped me on the second day and left me crushed," she said, "I then decided to find love somewhere else. And I found Kaito."

I leaned in closer, happy that I too got to know some of Miku's history.

"H-he actually understood my jokes. Even if they made no sense, he laughed. Kaito never minded when I hugged him and almost squeezed the life out of him. Totally opposite to how Len was. He was always caring to me, and still is. You know what? I may actually love him... I think I do..." Miku said, smiling at her realization.

I for one was in shock. I never realized what it would be to date Len and be dumped just like that, a rag that was used up... I guess I had actually known it all along and that is why I had despised him so much.

"But then you came into the picture... And everything changed. He had always been watching you, ever since you transferred. He smiled more often, true sincere smiles. He began to get along with us, Luka, Meiko and I... began to joke around. Len actually seemed happy... There was just one thing tying him down... his girlfriend Miki. When he declared that he liked you in front of her and publically broke up with her, it was no surprise to me. I had expected it all along."

"But he said it was just to-"

"Shush. Do you actually think he was playing?! I know he would never do that to YOU. He said that so the fangirls wouldn't tear you apart. That day, I saw true sincere affection in his eyes every time he saw you. I bet that even HE didn't realize it. When you laughed, he smiled. When you were absent, he was gloomy. He has never once accepted anymore date invitations from ANY girl. At all... Always saying he was busy and stuff. You may never see it but it happens... A lot. You get me? You have changed him... Thanks to you he is a better person."

"I-I-I had no idea..." I mumbled.

"Yea, so I am pretty sure Miki kissed HIM on purpose to get you to hate his guts. I think you two need to talk things out."

"I-I guess so..." I said looking around at the four walls, "Thank you Miku."

"Eh? No, I should be thanking you. You have also made me into a better person. It's like if you're contagious." She giggled.

"Hey!!! Where do you all think you are going?!!!" We heard Mikuo yell outside.

Suddenly, the doors to Miku's room flew open and several people came in.

"Rin!"

I turned to see Len, standing at the front of the crowd. Behind him stood: Kaito, Gakupo, Mikuo, and most surprisingly, Haku as well. I stared at them as they filed into the room.

I got up and was about to ask what they were doing but I was stopped by a form throwing itself on me.

"Riiiinnnn!!! I was so scared! When Len told me you were missing I freaked. Especially when somebody told us you were about to get run over! You're the only family I have! I don't want to lose you!!!" Haku sobbed, her red eyes turned even more red from crying. She overwhelmed me and we fell backwards.

I smiled, "I love you too, Haku." I hugged my friend really hard. Crap, I think I'm going to cry again...

"Rin?"

We both turned to face Len. He was standing awkwardly not knowing what to do.

"Mhhhmhmhm" Miku coughed, "Who wants cookies?"

"I do!!!" Haku exclaimed and soon, everyone was gone except me and Len. Behold the power of cookies... Leek cookies.

"Listen Rin, I'm really sorry about what happened today..."

"And I'm sorry for not asking what had happened sooner... For not trusting you."

He ran up to me and caught me in a hug. His shoulders shook and his breathing became irregular. No way... THIS guy is crying?!

"I-I thought you were gone... I went to your house and nobody had seen you. I asked Kaito and Gakupo but nobody knew where you were. Haku became hysterical when we found out you almost got ran over and killed. I grew afraid when they said a man had taken you away. Boy were we stupid not to call Mikuo in the first place..." He blurted out at high speed, his cerulean eyes watering up again.

"I-"

"No don't say a word!" he said as he placed a gentle hand over my mouth, "I have to explain what happened. I was standing in line when Miki came and grabbed me from behind. I pushed her away from me and said that we have been over for like a week now. We started fighting and then she insulted you and I got really mad and then out of nowhere she kissed me and I kissed her back without realizing it and then I tried to push her off but she wouldn't budge and that's when you came in and you saw us and ran away!" He said as he tried to regain his breath after telling his whole story in a single sentence, "I'm serious that's the truth!"

I smiled and stroked his head which was resting on my shoulder. "It's okay, I believe you."

"I don't ever want to lose you..." Len whispered into my chest.

"....me neither..." I whispered at last, realizing that I had started crying again. Curse you Len for making me weak!

"Huh? Did you say something?" He asked.

I mentally face-palmed, "N-no, nothing."

"Who wants... cookies..." I heard Mikuo say and we both turned to face the teal-haired guy standing in the doorway.

"Am I interrupting?" He asked innocently.

"N-no," I said and smiled as I took Len's hand, "Let's go eat some leek cookies."

"Leek?" Len asked as I dragged him away.

"Don't ask..."


Third Person P.O.V

The Hatsune siblings waved as the silver long luxury car pulled away.

"Heh, what a day." Miku sighed.

"Tell me about it..." Mikuo replied.

"Do you like Rin?"

"W-wha-? What kind of a question is that?! I barely talked to her today!!!"

"You can't fool me... You never have liked any girl. You flirt with my friends as a type of sick hobby but you feel nothing towards them. Yet today you were staring almost adoringly at Rin. And not to mention that you were also starting daggers at Len when he came in."

"I-I no! I don't like her! I am in love with Luka Megurine!" He said, not admitting that his sister was right.

"Sure.... Whatever..." Miku said as they walked back into the house.

?.·°??°· °?


Len stared at the sleeping form on his chest. He stroked Rin's golden hair affectionately and didn't want the ride to end. After they had dropped Kaito and Gakupo off, she had fallen asleep on top of him. All of the day's events had probably worn her out.

Can't believe she made me cry, he thought as they neared her house.

But it's true that I never want to lose her.

The car pulled up in front of the house and Kiyoteru got out and opened the door for Haku and Rin.

"Wake up, sleepy head." I whispered into her forehead.

Her sleepy sea blue eyes opened slowly. "Len?"

"Yup, you're home."

Rin quietly stood up and yawned.

"Thanks Len," she said, "for everything."

"No, thank you, Rin." He said softly.

Len watched as Haku and Rin got off and walked inside the large apartment building.

As he watched their retreating forms and knew something for sure. If today's incident had almost broken Rin's heart and almost caused her to get run over, he didn't want to know what would happen to Rin if she found out about the bet. He wouldn't bear to see her heart shatter into a million pieces... Though it had started as a bet, he was now profoundly in love with Rin Kagamine. Rin, who he had once considered weird with her bow and flat chest, now he could see no one as beautiful as her. Her smile, her eyes, her whole being was a creation of beauty.

I have to tell her about the bet before it's too late, he thought as Kiyoteru began to drive down the familiar path home.
