Disclaimer- I do not own Another!
Me and Mei walked down to the local coffee shop to meet up to Yuuya, Izumi, and Naoya. The curse was finally broken, and Misaki had taken off her eye patch. She wore a white coat and sweatpants.
"Are you sure it's ok for me to come?" Misaki asked.
"Yep, it's fine. I asked Izumi," I replied.
"What if I said no?"
"Then I would tell them you couldn't make it." We stepped into the warm coffee shop. It was winter so they have the heater on. I looked around because I didn't see any of them. Suddenly I saw hands waving out of the corner of my eye. Yuuya and Naoya were waving to us. Izumi had her hand on chin looking away from us. A girl sat next to Izumi. Probably just her sister, I thought. We walked over to the table, took off our coats, and sat down.
"So this is the famous Kouichi! I've heard a lot about you," she stuck out her hand, "I'm Izumi's older sister, Inori."
"Um hi, nice to meet you," I shook her hand.
"Ok," she paused, "Inori, can you leave now."
"Why?" She asked.
"Because I have to tell them a secret, bye," she shooed her away. When she left, Izumi told us.
"Do you guys want to go to Oshogatsu together?" I thought, January 1st…
"I'm busy, sorry." I really wasn't busy. I just wanted to spend the New Year with Mei. I wanted to tell her how I felt.
"Hmm I think I'm free!" Naoya smiled. He just said that because he wanted Izumi to himself.
"I don't like crowds," Mei said.
"I have a date so I can't" Yuuya said shyly.
"Ohhh! Who is it?!" Naoya teased.
"You guys don't know her."
"Aww that sucks. What does she look like?"
"Well, she has black hair up to her shoulders and has green eyes." Mei looked at him.
"What her name?"
"It's actually Misaki, likes yours. And she looks a lot like you."
She looked into his eyes, "You're dating my sister, Yuuya."
"Well, that explains a lot."
"Well, that's it for today, come on you idiot, you coming with me," She said pulling Naoya by his wrist.
"Where are we going?"
"Somewhere," He turned back to us and gave us a thumbs up. I just chuckled, He thinks he got her.
"Well, I better get going. Bye guys," He said putting on his jacket and walked away.
"Bye," Me and Mei said at the same time. That was quick, I thought. Me and Mei stared at each other.
"I'm actually not busy Mei, for Oshogatsu I mean."
She tilted her head, "Then why did you tell Izumi you were busy?"
"Because I wanted to spend the new year with you."
She blushed, "W-why me?"
"Because… I like you Mei, more than just a friend."
She stared at me for a minute, then put her hands on my chest, "I like you to, Kouichi-kun," We both leaned in for a kiss. Just when our lips were touching we hear someone yell.
"I forgot my wallet!" Naoya and Izumi come running to the table. Izumi looked at us while Naoya was getting his wallet.
"Where you guys just about to kiss?" Izumi asked.
"Oh us? No, no we were just um… having a staring contest!" Mei knotted. Izumi put her hands on her hips.
"Uh-hu, you guys were just having a staring contest with Mei's hands on your chest and your hands on her cheeks, you were just having a staring contest."
"Found it!" Naoya yelled. Me and Mei put our hands down.
"Hey Naoya guess what!" Izumi smiled.
"What?"
"They two are dating now!" Izumi looked at us.
"Hey, so are we," Naoya said putting his arm around Izumi. She blushed a little. Me and Mei got up.
"Then we don't have to make fun of people, now do we Izumi?" I whispered.
She crossed her arms over her chest, "I didn't make fun of you," I laughed.
"Well, see you guys later," We waved to the couple. I turned back, "Hey Izumi, what did you do to him before?"
She look startled. Naoya put his hand to one side of his mouth and whispered something. Now I looked startled. Nice way to say I love you, I thought. When we got outside it was snowing a lot harder than when we got here.
"Wanna come over?" She asked.
"Sure." I put my hand in hers and we walked to her house hand in hand.
