The crickets chirping quietly in the bushes set me on edge. The night is pitch black; not even squinting helps my eyes adjust to the dark road that spans out in front of me. I shiver when a harsh wind hits my body. Gee, maybe I should have ridden back to the Vocaloid house from the movie with Kaito…
I decide to brave the cold and keep walking. Though I hate to admit it, I've never particularly liked the dark. Also, the fact that I only have a light sweatshirt to keep me warm makes the walk even less pleasant. Pretty much, I hate this walk home.
I sigh, sticking my hand out in front of my to make sure there isn't anything in front of me. "This sucks…" I mutter under my breath. I suddenly get an idea; cupping my hands around my mouth, I slowly blow warm air onto my hands. I continually do that as I continue walking.
The lights up ahead on the road initially scare the crap out of me; then, I realize that it's pretty normal for a car to be on the road. Laughing out loud at my stupidity, I slow to a stop and wait until the car passes. To my surprise, though, the car pulls over to the side of the road right next to me.
The door opens and a purple haired head pokes out of the door. "Gakupo!" I yell in relief. Once he gets out of the car, I hug him tightly. "I've been so scared, Gakupo… Thanks for picking me up." I can't help but notice how warm his body is.
He politely removes himself from me. I blush and look to the ground. "Sorry… I guess I was overreacting. But you HAVE to admit that it's freezing out!" Gakupo cracks a rare smile and nods. I grin and mentally congratulate myself. I love it when Gakupo smiles at me.
I have always had a crush on Gakupo ever since I first met him. However, he only thinks of me as a fellow Vocaloid. Honestly, the two of us never really communicate. I had only sung one duet with him in my life. I have forever remembered the lyrics to the duet, but Gakupo has probably forgotten them.
Reminiscing aside, I get into the passenger's seat. The feeling of the heater on my frigid body is amazing. I sigh and lean back. "Have I been gone long?"
"Well, no, but when Meiko and Kaito told me you were walking home, I knew you'd get lost." I laugh. I can be kind of an airhead sometimes… I yawn and pull my hood up.
"Do you mind if I take a nap on the way home? It is a long way away…" I ask shyly. Gakupo nods without looking at me.
"Just try not to drool."
I laugh. "I'll try." I close your eyes and tune out the noises of the car. Without thinking, I begin to sing the duet that I always sing before I go to bed.
"My love will never die out…
I scream out, my emotions clear and loud.
The hate that you feel for me, though…
I try my best to shrug it off as of now.
You'll see one day, you'll see it my way,
But for now, fate has tangled us in this web of emotion."
I vaguely notice Gakupo glance over at me, but I can't read his expression. I slip further and further into slumber, but one last thing I notice before I'm asleep is Gakupo's smooth, melodic voice joining with mine.
"You'll see one day, you'll see it my way,
But for now, fate has tangled us in this web of emotion."

Well, I felt like a total idiot for not doing anything this summer, so I did this...? Just don't kill me, please! D:
The story about the duet and the title is that in the duet, the girl's character loves Gakupo's character, but Gakupo's character hates her. In the end of the song, they never resolve it.
