AN: I'm re-uploading this story w/c was published back in 2014. It was entitled as "There is no such thing as the end" and I had a different pen name back then. So I'll be re-uploading the previous 3 chapters and will add some more until, hopefully, I finish it.

I don't own K-ON! or any of its characters

CHAPTER 1: The End

The members of the HTT band are in the second year of their college lives except for Nakano Asuza, who's in her first year, and as they have imagined before when they were still in high school, they all picked different programs that they envisioned themselves to take… well… most of them. Hirasawa Yui, their air- headed lead guitarist actually pursued B.S. Education While Kotobuki Tsumugi, the sometimes-air-headed-but-very-perceptive heiress who is also their keyboardist took the Performing Arts major in Theatre. Nakano Asuza, the rhythm guitarist was accepted in the Music Conservatory which is a very prestigious one in all of Japan. To become a professional musician is her dream after all. Akiyama Mio took A.B. Literature because studying/ reading/ writing literary works has been her passion and then there's Tainaka Ritsu. She took B.S. Business management then shifted to B.S. Marketing then shifted to B.S. Education and is now planning to shift to a different program.

"Mou! I can't take this anymore!" Shouted a very frustrated girl with honey-colored hair that is pulled back by a yellow hair band

"Don't worry Captain! You'll find the right path in your next program!" Shouted back by a rather enthusiastic brown haired girl that is sporting a huge grin while her eyes are closed and her hands in front of her doing a thumb's up position

"Thanks private Yui! I can always count on you when I feel down!" the hair banded girl said with conviction while putting her right arm over the brown haired girl's shoulders

"…Mataku.. Yui-senpai and Ritsu-senpai doesn't change do they?" Sighed the cat-like girl while staring at her two senpais that seemed to have drifted to another world

"I think it's a good thing though" Said a blond girl with a contented smile

"Uhm, excuse me here are your orders." An orange haired girl wearing white long sleeved button up shirt with her sleeves folded up to her elbows and a black chaleco over it and a black bowtie tied around her collar, she was also wearing a red plaid skirt hanging two inches just above the knee. "one tutti fruti milk tea for miss Yui, one green tea frapp for miss Asuza, one green tea frapp for Miss Tsumugi, one Hot special Earl Grey for Miss Mio, and one mocha Americano to mi—" she suddenly stopped as she stared a Ritsu "Um, sir Rikku. Gomen, the cashier might have misheard your name" the waitress said as she bowed

"Heh… its ok miss" Ritsu said with a wink which made the waitress blush

When the waitress was out of ear shot, Mio suddenly stood up and said that she needs to go and finish her term paper which made Ritsu immediately stand up "Mio?" The raven haired girl didn't even bother to stop and look around. "Sorry guys, I gotta go and follow her" Ritsu said with a slight bow and soon she took off in a hurry to catch up with her mad girlfriend.

Outside the café "Mio! Hah..hah..hah…" The hair banded girl said that seemed almost like a shout between pants "What the? I'm already out of breath? Hmm…I guess I'm having too much coffee" She said to herself as she felt her heart thump too fast than usual. "What?!" The black haired beauty snapped as she turned around to look at Ritsu. "I'm sorry for winking at her. I didn't mean to do that. It just came out naturally" The honey-colored hair girl said while bowing in front of Mio. "Stop that, people are staring." She said in a rather cold and indifferent way. "ah… sh-sure. S-sorry again" She said while scratching the back of her head with an unreadable face but uncertainty and a tinge of sadness is reflected through her amber eyes.

"Mio, is something wrong?" She said while staring at the ground

"Yes. There is something wrong." The black haired girl said in a 'matter-of-fact" tone.

Ritsu's head shot up and stared into an empty, cold grey eyes "Wha-what's… what's wrong?" She said with tears starting to well up on her eyes. Somehow, she knew what was coming but still managed to ask just to make sure if she was right even though she's hoping that she was wrong.

The raven haired girl sighed heavily. "Ritsu… I'm b- I'm breaking up with you. I c-can't take this anymore." She said while convincing her head that she was doing the right thing. "Ever since college, our future became so, so unreal" She said with a surer tone compared to her first sentence "I-I loved our memories back in high school. I used to think that as long as we loved each other, nothing else matters but I was wrong! We're already twenty Ritsu. It won't take long and we'll be graduating but… you, this is your second year in college but you haven't even completed a single semester of one program that you enrolled yourself into. I mean… I want a future Ritsu. Us being two girls is not helping either. Ah… I, I'm sorry" with that Mio turned away hiding her tears, she crossed the street and got in a random bus that just happened to pass by.

"Well… I guess this is goodbye Mio… my Romio…" The amber eyed girl whispered as tears started to flow down her cheeks while watching the bus carry the love of her life away from her.
