This is my first serious fanfic. Please be nice. All flames will be used to make s'mores.


"Kaito."

"Yes, Meiko?" Kaito answer back.

"What would you do if I were to die today?"

Confused and worried by her question, Kaito thought for a minute and finally answered.

"I would be devastated that you had to leave me so soon, but I would be happy for you because I know that you would be in a better place. Why do you ask?"

Meiko looked around the room to make sure no others were listening to their conversation. Len was reading a manga. Rin and Miku were playing chess. Luka and Gakupo were on the other sofa cuddling and kissing. But Gumi was peeking from behind the wall listening to their every word.

"I can't tell you here. We have a little spy watching us," Meiko whispered. "Follow me." She got up and walked up the stairs to her room. Kaito curiously followed her. Meiko tripped but quickly recovered. This did not go unnoticed by Kaito. But neither of them noticed that Gumi still followed them.

"Kaito, what I am about to say is for your ears only. I don't need all the others worrying about me." Kaito nodded his head quickly and turned to close the door.

"Kaito, I'm sick. Terribly sick. Master said I have a virus that he has never seen before. He said he would do his best to cure me, but it would take a while to find a cure. It has been a year and a half since I figured out what was wrong with me. I'm getting worse everyday. This morning I woke up and part of my arm was all codes. While we were walking up the stairs, part of my leg turned to codes. One day I fear that I will wake up to be nothing but a puddle of codes laying in my bed!"

Gumi had heard enough and quickly turned away from the door. How could Meiko do that to them? She would just disappear from all the vocaloids lives and not tell anyone. Gumi knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, and now she knew why. She quickly walked down the stairs. She had to tell someone.
