-waahhhh!- on the ground there was a small blue haired boy crying, he had trip on a rock and had scratched his knee – hey! Are you ok?- a pig tailed girl asked as she got close to the latter.-eh? *sniff*sniff*- the blue haired looked up and continue crying, -ahhhh!- the pig tailed panicked-it's ok, it's ok see?- the pig tailed girl said as she softly clean the wound, -t..thank you..- the blue haired managed to say, the pig tailed girl smiled and patted the latter's head, -not at all, do you feel better now Sonoda-kun?- the blue haired nodded -good, now let's head back home- the pig tailed girl extanded her hand, and the latter grabbed onto it, -Sonoda-kun, you should be more careful from now on- the pig tailed girl commented as they walked holding hands,-you're older than me, you should be the one taking care of me- -I...I know, I'm shorry- the blue haired said pouting, the pig tailed girl grinned, she was enjoying the view she has seeing, - don't worry Sonoda-kun, I will always be there if you get hurt- the blue haired stopped walking making the pig tailed girl stop as well, -what's wrong Sonoda-kun?- the blued haired boy looked at her a bit upset -only if I get hurt?- he asked, the pig tailed couldn't help but chuckle at seeing this cute expression, - of course not, I will always be there for you- she said smiling, -promise?- the blue haired asked, -pinky promise!- the latter said interwining fingers with the blue haired boy. -now let's head back, I'm hungry- the pig tailed girl said and the latter nodded.

From afar, there were two parents who were watching the whole scene, -don't you think they get along pretty well?- one asked -yeah - the other agreed -wouldn't it be great if we could become family in the future?- the first parent said, -what do you mean?- the other questioned, -well, you're a good friend of mine and we're good business partners, I also think our kids get along pretty well- the other dad looked at him confused, - just get to the point- the first parent sighed, -impatient as always I see- he chuckled a bit making the other irratated – what I'm referring to is, I would like for you daughter to be part of my family, I like the way she takes care of our little Umi, and also I think this a good way to protect our companies- the other looked at him in disbelief, - you can't be serious, they're only kid! Your son is only 7, mine's only 4! You're already talking about marriage? You're kidding!- he said in disbelief, - oh c'mon just think about it. Aren't they cute together? And aren't you nervous of what of person your daughter might marry? What if is some dangerous thieve in disguise?- -now you're just exagerrating!- he exhaled deeply, - but what you're saying somehow makes sense, if its Umi-kun the one by my little girl's side, I know I don't have to worry about her well being in the future. He might be a little clumsy right now, but I'm sure you'll turn him into a proper man- the first parent grinned – I knew you would agree! Then its decided, once they reach an appropiate age we will tell them about this. - the second parent looked at the other still in disbelief to what he had just agreed on, - but- he said, -but?- the other questioned. - if they fall in love with someone who is acceptable, this will be as if it had never happened, ok?- he said extending his hand , -fine- the other extended his hand too, and they both shook hands, - but I'm sure my Umi is the most suitable for your daughter.- -...-

And so the parents of those two kids had made an agreement, they will tell them about this when they entered high school. However destiny played different cards on them. Umi's parents had to move to Australia because of business reasons. Still the agreement was still in place. After 13 years they came back to Japan,

-finally back in Japan! I can't wait to see her- he said smiling to himself as he walked down the plane. -I wonder if she remembers me- he thought walking through the airport-well we were only kids, still I have not forgotten about her, and I still only think of her-

FLASHBACK

Umi's dad had told him about what he had agreed on the exact same day the agreement was made. Umi obviously agreed. He had always like the little pig tailed girl, marrying her would be a dream come true. But his father also told him that they had also agreed that if they fell in love with someone else the agreement would be as if it had never happened. Something that made Umi panicked, - dad, that can't be! I am certainly the most suitable for her!- his dad chuckled- that's the kind of answer I wanted to hear!- he said proudly. - don't worry dad, I, Sonoda Umi will be the one who marries her, no one else!- He said determined.

END OF FLASHBACK

-I might have been a weak boy as a kid, but I've grown strong! certainly, I'm the only who can marry you, Yazawa Nico- he said as he got in the family's car and headed towards their house in Japan.

-I can't wait to see you-


Meanwhile in otonokizaka high school Maki and Rin were in the front yard eating lunch together, -nyaa- Rin said in a sad tone, the red haired sighed- what is it Rin?- he asked almost not wanting to, - I'm sad Maki-kun!- Rin said complaining -sad?- the red haired asked, - aren't you too? our senpais will graduate tomorrow! I just *sniff*sniff* I will miss them so much!- he said as he started to tear up, -I..ahh~- he sighed -you know this is just how life is- he said twirling a piece of hair between his fingers, -looks like Maki-kun won't miss us, huh?- a voice said making the two of them turned around to see who was talking- Eli...Nico-chan- was all that Maki managed to say, -Maki-kun might not, but I will miss you both a lot!- Rin said getting up and running to hug them both, Eli and Nico looked at the younger boy and smiled, - we will also miss you Rin- Nico said tighting the hug, only Rin? Maki thought a bit upset, -and of course Maki-kun too! even if he doens't miss us- Eli said faking tears. Rin broke the hug and look at both of them, - shouldn't you guys be preparing for graduation?- he asked curiously , -yes, we were just remembering old times, I too will miss Nico after we graduate-Eli said on a sad tone, -Eli... we're going to the same college you know...- Nico said -but we're not in the same major, I won't see you as much!- he said exaggerating a bit with his words, Nico only sighed. Nico and Eli had been friends since elementary school. Eli coming from Russia had a really thick accent back then and almost no kid wanted to play with him, but one day Nico went up to him and asked him to play with her, even though even Nico couldn't understand what he said, she still played with the little russian boy, and so they became best friends. Even at one point the russian boy had developed a crush on Nico but never had the courage to tell her about his feelings. Just like a certain red haired, - Eli-senpai exaggerating his words as always- Maki said, - Maki-kun that's mean!- the senior complained. -Maki, we're graduating tomorrow, let's just spend this day peacefully, yeah?- Nico asked him, -and if I don't want to?- Maki said going into tsundere mode, Nico only sighed , usually she would've start arguing with him, but she really did want to spend just peaceful hours with her underclassmates, - I can't force you- Nico said smiling at Maki ,Maki remained silent. -let's go Eli, we still need to get some stuff ready- Nico said and Eli nodded, - see you guys tomorrow, don't be late Nico-chan!- Rin said as he waved goodbye to his seniors, - Maki-kun, really you can't be honest - Rin said as he started to walk back to the classroom since the bell had already rang , Maki didn't say anything. Rin was right, Maki had been in love with Nico ever since that time,

FLASHBACK

-ah you look what you've done, you've ruined my clothes!- A red haired yelled irritated, -I'm really sorry boy!- a guy offered an apology and fleed away, -where do you think you're going?!- he yelled but he didn't look back , -how am I going to play at my recital now?!- he yelled in agonoy, at that moment,a raven haired girl with crimson eyes got close to him, - what's the matter?- she asked curiously, the red haired boy looked at her irritated - can't you see?! my clothes are ruined, I have a recital today, it's all ruined!- the red haired said as he began to sob softly, - the raven haired girl looked at him and smiled, -hey if you tell me your name I'll help you- she said, the red haired boy looked at her confused- how can you help?- he said irritated, - you see that clothing store?- she said poiting at the huge clothing store in front of them ,- Yazawa-clothing- the red haired read,-yeah what about it?- he said, - my family owns that store, if you tell me your name I'll give you a change of clothes, so how about it?- she said smiling. -mmm- Maki looked at her suspiciously, Yazawa-clothing store was one of the best stores in the whole country. He wouldn't so easily believe a stranger that they owned it. -show me an id first- he demanded, the raven haired girl showed it and Maki confirmed that it was true that her family owned the clothing store -Yazawa Nico- the id read, -Maki- -huh?- the raven haired girl asked, - Nishikino Maki, that's my name- he said blushing, Nico smiled, and guided him inside the store, she told the employees to give a change of clothes to the boy and to not charge a single penny. Maki came out with even better clothes than the ones he was waering before, he looked at his watch and saw that it was already very late- oh crap! I'm gonna be late- he said overwhelmed, Nico who was still there over heard, and offered to take him, Maki agreed only because he was running late, otherewise he would've reject her. The ride wasn't very long and the whole time both of them remained quiet. -we're here- the driver said parking and going to the door to open it for Maki to get out. -thank you...- Maki said blushing as he got out of the car, - no problem Nishikino-san- Nico said smiling, which made Maki blushed.

END OF FLASHBACK

Maki was now at home laying in bed

-how did I even...ahhh~- he sighed. -Tomorrow she's gonna graduated I won't see her again afterwards...no! I won't let that happen- he said to himself -tomorrow I will tell her about my feelings I'm going to be a man for once!- he said determined as he fell asleep


Meanwhile in the sonoda household

-you look nervous Umi- Umi turned around to find his dad in the doorway -I am- he replied, -it's been 13 years, what if she doesn't like me? Even worse what if she doesn't remember me?!- he said worried -don't worry , I mean look at you!- his father said taking him to the mirror, - you're tall, handsome. intellegent and the heir of the most succesful dojo in East Asia, who wouldn't want to marry such an amazing person?- his father said proudly , he looked at the mirror and then looked at his dad, - but what if there's someone else she likes? What do I do then?- he said still worried, his father sat down on the bed and let out a sigh– look, last week I had a conversation with Yazawa-kun, he told me that his daughter has never mentioned liking anyone and she has never brought anyone home, so don't worry too much. - dad...- Umi said -yeah?- he replied, - you do realize that she might just decided to not tell him,right?- he said, -yes , I know- he replied, - but Yazawa-kun has always had people watching over his daughter ever since she was born, so I'm sure that there's no one. So don't over worry. Now go to sleep, tomorrow is her graduation ceremony. You don't want to be late now do you?- he asked as he exited the room, leaving Umi alone with his thoughts. - I hope dad's right, still I can't help but worry. Ahhh!-he shooked his head. - I don't want to think about it... Tomorrow I will see her again. I'm excited to finally see her again.- he said to himself as he laid down and drift away in sleep.


-Nico- Nico turned around and found her mom entering her room, - yes, mom?- Nico asked – are you nervous about graduation?- her mother asked, -not really, just a bit sad- Nico said. Nico and her mother had a really close relationship and Nico would always tell her mother everything. - Nico you know the Sonoda family arrived today in Japan.- her mother said , - I see- was the only thing Nico said, - I still can't believe your dad made that kind of agreement without telling me!- Nico chuckled and looked at her mom assuring her it was ok- mom, it's fine I'm sure Sonoda -san and I will get along well. I don't really remember much of him but he sounds like a good person- Nico said, - but Nico- her mom said, - don't you like Maki-kun?- Nico blushed a litte at the mention of the name, - that doesn't matter anymore, I tried to get close to him for the past two years and he never responded to anything, it just seemed like I was a bother to him. All we ended up doing is fight. - Nico sighed. -Nico- her mom said softly, - sleep now, I don't want you to be late to your own graduation, ok?- her mom smiled and kissed Nico's forehead before leaving the room. - Maki-kun you idiot, up until the end, how could you not notice my feelings?- Nico sighed and as her mom told her to, she went to sleep, preparing for the day that was coming.

A.N

hello everyone, this is my first time writing a fanfic here. I don't know why but I really wanted to see something like this happening, I was undecided on who to choose as a marriage partner for Nico. Nico and Umi somehow make a really weird but cute couple don't you think? All the members of Muse will be in the fic. Also I'm not sure yet who will end with Nico, that's all I'm gonna say. Thanks for reading .
