Chapter 1
"I-I love you!"
How many courage did you need to confess your love? How long the time that you spent to gathered it? And how were your feeling when that courage turned into dust in an instant your crush had said she doesn't feel the same way as you do.
Hatsune Miku, 16 years old, a high school girl, was recently experience her first heart breaks after she confesses to a certain pink haired girl, her best friend and senpai all at once, who'd known as Megurine Luka.
And now, she felt a new dilemma building inside her. What would happen with their friendship after this? What face should she make when she meet the pink haired girl? Was she could acting like there was nothing in front of her? And was the pinkette would do that too instead disgusted by her because she'd admits that she was in love with a girl?
Miku, felt too worried to sleep that night, didn't have much choice except stay awake, and running every other possibilities in her head. Unfortunately, for her, it seemed that her brain didn't have much energy to think of positive possibilities.
"Uhh... sorry. But I don't like you that way."
In addition for her torture, the scene when Luka turned her down keep replaying in her mind until she was tired to even feels sad about it.
That was how the teal haired girl spent her night after the first rejection she had experience. Let's pray for her poor soul, shall we?
Miku was sure her senior tried to avoid her as much as possible since the day she confessed to her about her love. Though at first, the tealette avoid to meet her best friend all the same, she was now starting to miss her to the point that she didn't care about Luka's reaction anymore.
However, the truth that she found out was not nice at all. She never thought she'd avoided by the pinkette just because she confessed to her that day. She thought their friendship were more than that. It seems she was wrong. Miku didn't blame the pink haired girl though; she has all the right to avoid her after she did something like that. She was the one who ruined their friendship.
And she'd really regretted it now.
Of course, if regret could change the past, there wouldn't be any in the first place. Because the past when they regretted already removed from history.
But who knows? Maybe this teal girl would be lucky and get the happy ending she'd always wanted.
"I wish I could go back to the past and not confessed to Luka-senpai."
It was really a sincere wish.
Too sincere to the point that someone with power could do nothing except granted her that wish. Back to the past, that is.
"Are you sure you wanted to return to the past?"
The voice that she heard feels really familiar but at the same time feels foreign too, the impression it gave makes her couldn't decide if the source was a man or woman. And she didn't know if she was now in a dream or just knocked her head too hard, because as far as her eyes go, all she could see was just white, blank, emptiness, around her.
Where was she? Why she trapped in place like this? Was she dreaming? Why was she alone?
This white place felt really surreal for her comfort. And who was the person that talked earlier? What he or she means by go back?
"I could grant your wish and send you back to the past if that's what you really wanted."
The voice said again, still with the same tone s/he used earlier. Still with the same familiar and foreign voice, she'd heard before.
"How did you know I wanted to go back to the past?"
Miku, thought it was better to reply it rather than kept quiet all the time, asked the voice in a very confused tone. This place already bothered her, and now there's a suspicious voice that knows what she had thinking and speak about granted it. How the hell he knew about that? How the hell he was planning to grant that impossible wish?
"I just know," the voice answered with an indifferent tone. "So, do you want it? Or do you not want it? Choose one of it, human."
The tealette cocked her head to the sides. Not really understand. But her mouth still answered that question automatically, as if the answer was already obvious from the start, and there was no need to asking it again.
"Of course, I want."
...
"Very good. But there's one condition for your wish to be granted."
Condition? Now she was feeling like she would do a contract with an evil. Was this safe? She didn't know, though in her mind she was thinking she would do anything to regain her friendship with Luka.
"What's the condition?" asked Miku bravely, and curiously.
"Simple. The condition for you to go back is you will not remember about this present and the time travel," said the voice with laid-back tone. Though still with the same impression of it.
Huh? That was surprisingly simple and well... safe? Maybe this one was not an evil after all. Miku nodded to herself. But she still asked to make sure she really understands what s/he mean is.
"You mean... I will not remember about this place, you... and..."
Miku looked unsure. What was the last thing she would forget?
"And you will not remember about your confession, and how then it would go wrong for you."
The voice continued her statement, explaining.
"What?! But then... how... I fix it?!" asked Miku, confused. "What good of go back to the past if I didn't know what will happen in the future!"
"It's not my business, isn't it? And who knows? Maybe you will do different action? Maybe you would be to coward to confess now? Maybe she'd accept you?" The voice answered, again, with an indifferent tone. And though his statement was cold, it has many sentences that didn't support his first statement at all.
It made Miku thinking, what the hell going on with his/her character? At first s/he gave the impression of someone powerful and mysterious, but now he just looked like some meddlesome people whose like being lazy?
"Hey, I still can read your mind!"
Oh... and now, he was upset. Or maybe she. Miku shrugged. Not like it would bring any different to her situation.
"I could take back my word about granted your wish, you know."
"Uwaah! Sorry! I'm so sorry! You're really great! You're the best! Don't take back your word, please!" Miku frantically apologized to someone with no form to seen, and bowed repeatedly to no one direction. It looked so foolishly funny that the voice really lost his/her charisma because s/he laughed too much after that.
"Okay... okay... so, do you accept this condition?"
The voice asked again after calming his or her laughter. It was really creepy to hear for Miku because of the voice's impression had been so familiar yet foreign. And it was laugh! Like she heard her friends laughing at the same time!
Ah... it best if she didn't think about it that much.
"Yeah. I accept that condition," answered Miku certainly. "I don't think I have that much courage to say it again, after all."
"Well done. You will return to the past; the day when you would confess to her."
It was morning. Miku struggled with her blanket, tried to keep her eyes open, but always felt too lazy to do it. She was back to sleep again and again while mumbled, "Five minutes more…" in hoarse voice and slowly closed her eyes. Didn't bother to check her clock at all, and just dive to her dream world with warmth of the blanket around her.
"Miku! Are you awake? Luka is here already!"
The voice of her mom faintly heard, through her ear, because of the sleepiness she was having. Therefore, her reaction a bit delayed like an old computer having difficulty to load something.
Luka is here... Luka-senpai is here... She is HERE!
Miku opened her eyes instantly, looked at her clock for a moment, before frantically throwing her blanket to the floor. She went to prepare herself in a rush, quick-movement.
Few minutes later, she was trying to tame her bed hair and tied them into her usual twintail with some difficulties. One minutes more after that, Luka felt a bit impatient and going up to Miku's room, to check her beloved-not in that way—junior. Few seconds after that, the pinkette helped her with her hair and made her feels embarrassed for some reasons.
That was the report for this morning, after Miku went back to the past, the day she would confess to her beloved—yeah, in that way—senior from the removed history. It looks like she was really forgot about it, right? Then, it's fine.
That day went really smoothly for Miku, with an exception to Luka's strange behavior. Well... just a bit. For example, that morning when they were on their way to school, the pinkette often looked a bit restless and walking too quick than usual, made her can't enjoy their time together alone for a long time.
But when she thought of it, they were nearly late that morning because of her overslept. So maybe that's why Luka walked faster than her usual slowly but surely pace.
It was not the only time the pink haired girl did something unusual, though. There was another example that afternoon, usually, they always ate lunch together in the roof. But that time, Luka said she wanted to eat together with others too. So then, they ate in cafeteria, together with Kagamine twins, Gumi, Kaito, Gakupo, and many others.
Well... it's not like that was bad. Miku enjoyed the time with her other friends too. She laughed when Kaito made a joke about eggplant and gotten hit from Gakupo, after all. Maybe Luka just want some varieties? Uh oh... or maybe she was just bored with Miku?
No, no... There was no way Luka had thought something that cruel. Miku nodded to herself, seemingly agreed with her own mind.
The last event when Luka did something different from usual was after school, when they went home together. Normally, they would do a lot of talking about their day. But this past evening, all Luka did was check her hand phone like there was something very interesting in that thing. When the tealette asked about it, though she just says she wanted to know what time is it, because there's a TV program she really wants to see.
Seriously, since when her best friend had a hobby of watching television? And she wore watch in her wrist, wasn't she?! So why checked the time with your hand phone!
After that, Luka stopped seeing her hand phone. But they were already arrived at her home, and Miku was forced to be separated from the pinkette again, so she could continue her way to her own home.
Because of that, she was now feeling a bit gloomy. So much for the day to went smoothly. She was even cancelled her plan to confess to the pinkette today after seeing her acted like that.
Even though she spends the night before to think about it until she overslept that morning... she didn't have the courage to do it if it was like this.
It was the next morning when Miku felt; maybe there was nothing to worry about. She was waiting her senior in front of her house, ready to go, when Luka greets her with her usual friendly tone.
"Good morning, Miku."
"Eh... ah... good morning, Luka-senpai!"
"You are not late again this morning," the pinkette said with a teasing tone in her voice. "Even though I'd prepared to bring you some alarms."
"Uhh... I don't always wake up late, senpai," said Miku, flustered but with a tinge of guilty across her face. "Sorry for yesterday... we almost late because of me."
Luka, didn't think the tealette's reaction would be that extreme, looked a bit surprised before smiling at her softly. She reached out her hand to ruffle Miku's teal hair while said, "Its okay. I'm just kidding, you know."
"Uhh... but still... I'm sorry."
"Yeah... yeah... you are forgiven," said Luka, while continued to pet her teal kouhai like she was some kind of kitty. "You are too cute to not forgiven."
Miku blushed. Looked up at her best friend in hope. Unfortunately, Luka was already finished messing with her hair and decided to start walking toward school. She didn't even look back when she asked Miku to hurry.
"Let's go!"
"Eh... ah... okay!"
Well... at least the pinkette seemed back like her usual self, and didn't act like yesterday.
Miku, felt relieved with that conclusion, started running to catch up with her senpai.
"Luka-senpai. Can you help me study after class ended?" asked Miku desperately, after finished her lunch, which contained mostly leeks.
"What's subject?" Luka replied calmly, already used to her kouhai overdramatic behavior.
"English," said Miku. "I have to take a retest tomorrow."
"Uh-huh. How bad your score this time?" Luka asked, slightly amused. She was in the mood to tease the tealette right now. "The last time you had to take a retest, your score were truly..."
"Luka-senpai!" Miku pouted, feeling a bit embarrassed and mad at the same time. Her face reddening in each seconds, makes her look like a tomato.
"Okay, okay. I will help you study later."
Luka just laughed at it.
And that was how Miku spent her lunch break, chatting randomly while receiving a bit teasing, with her favorite person in the world.
Miku was already used to Spartan's style teaching Luka has. But that's not mean she liked it, although it's always success to makes her pass the test (or retest), she still felt a bit nervous if Luka already entered her teacher mode.
"Wrong!"
"Uhh..."
She didn't have the right to protest, though. Because she was the one who asked Luka to help in the first place. And because she knew, it was the only way to ensure her pass the test without doubt.
"Wrong! Do it again!"
But she still didn't like it!
...
A few hours later, Miku was finally free from the demon teacher that would not release her even if she cried and beg. She was now on her way home along with the pinkette that already back from her demon mode, to her usual kind self. Ahh... thank goodness it's already finished... Miku didn't think she had expressing her gratitude enough of that.
"Miku! Next time you have a test, you'd better tell me, so I can teach you before you have to take the retest!"
Even though she was back to her usual self. It seems her teaching mode still worked. She was lecturing Miku almost on the way home without sounding tired at all. Miku, who didn't have much choice beside nodded and heard it, just smile slightly with the way her senpai acted.
It means she cares... right?
The tealette blushed at the thought, before glanced over the pinkette. She gulped nervously, thinking it was her only chance to tell Luka about her feelings. Her only chance to say she loves her more than anyone else in the world.
"L-Luka-senpai!" Miku called. "I-I love you!"
"History repeats itself."
I'm in the mood to write some humor... or maybe I just wanted to troll Miku?
Review?
