Yuu Yanase had always loved Chiaki Yoshino ever since they first met in middle school. They shared the same interests, always had a great time with each other, and more importantly, Chiaki was Yuu's best friend and first love. But, things never worked out for them because of Hatori. Yuu hated him with a passion. Tori was always with the one Yuu loved and nothing pissed him off more than that until he stole Chiaki away from him. Well in Yuu's point of view Chiaki was stolen from him. He couldn't understand why Chiaki had to love Tori and not him. Yuu had confessed to Chiaki as well and figured that he might move on from Tori but he was proven wrong. Being punched in the face by someone he loved and told that he couldn't be with him because of Tori hurt more than anything. Of course Chiaki had apologized but Yuu's feelings couldn't move on passed that.

More than a few weeks after being rejected by his first love, things were still the same at work. Everyone was pushing themselves to the limit to finish the famous mangaka's way overdue deadlines. After 3 day's of not getting enough sleep, they managed to finish everything.

"Good work everyone, you can go home now"

Once everyone left, it was just Chiaki and Yuu by themselves. The room was silent for a bit until Chiaki finally broke the silence.

"Yuu, I know things have been rough between us for a while now but I would still like us to be friends because I've missed that... so i was wondering if you could go with me to this party that's hosting a lot of authors including me and I'm not that good with those kinds of thing. But, I do feel better when I'm with people I know."

Yuu glanced over at Chiaki before replying back, "Why don't you bring Tori with you? Wouldn't that be the best option?"

Chiaki looked down at the ground and continued speaking.

"Well Tori is going to be with a lot of other editors so I'll end up being alone so that's why I want you to come with me..."

Yuu sighed and smiled at Chiaki.

"Alright I'll go with you but lets make sure Tori doesn't plan on punching me at the party because I'm with you"

Chiaki looked up at Yuu in shock and laughed nervously.

"YUU! THAT'S NOT FUNNY!"

Yuu laughed at Chiaki's reaction and made his way out towards his apartment.

"A party huh? I wonder how that's going to go down..." Yuu thought as a finally made it inside, anxious about the next day.
