(Amu's POV)

"A dance recital?" I asked.

"That's right , my friend is from a super famous family . They do such recital every year . Why don't you come with me? I could introduce them to you" Kuukai asked.

I shook my head "Sorry , but I rather stay at home and paint"

Kuukai sweatdropped "Come on , you're always drawing and painting . Locking yourself at home for days and then suddenly appear with your clothes and faces covered with paint . You should have some fun outside too. Besides , dancing is a form of art too"

I blinked "But I have fun drawing"

"I know ... but don't you think you should hangout more with people? You've transferred into this school for two years already and I'm the only one who talks to you..." he said rubbing the back of his head.

I blinked "Kuukai , you don't want to be my friend?"

"I don't mean it that way! .. I mean , I want you to have more friends , at this rate , you're going to have a lonely and boring school life" he said .

I wanted to tell him that it wasn't boring and lonely but I knew he was just worried for me.

"But..I not so good at making friends.." I said looking down.

"Oh come on , I'll help , okay?" he asked with sparkly eyes.

He looked do hopeful , he'll be disappointed if I say no..

"Okay.." I said softly.

"Really?" he asked.

I nodded .

He raised a fist and shouted "GREAT!"

I blinked and giggled.

(The next day)

(Kuukai's POV)

I stood in front of an apartment sweatdropping .

The words 'HInamori Amu , Painting Studio , press the doorbell and come in if you like . Welcoming anyone who just want to have some peace..'

"I swear one day , perverts , thieves and crazy maniasc will come in here and scare the hell out of her" I muttered.

I took a key with a pink ribbon tied onto it out of my pocket and unlocked the door .

I pushed open the door slightly and almost immediately , the smell of paint filled my nose.

I opened it completely , revealing a huge room filled with all kinds of stuff . There was a huge vertically long drawer that reached from one end of the room to the other , placed directly next to the wall . On different parts of the compartments , were different labels that was hand drawn by paint such as 'paint brush' , 'pencil' , 'markers' , 'cotton wool' and 'erasers'. On top of the drawers , there was hand-painted cups , pots , drawings , hand made jewellery , keychains were displayed . A white translucent curtain covered the balcony , hiding rows and rows of canvas placed there . There was a queen sized bed , a small wardrobe she used to keep her clothes and stuff and a mini kitchen at the corner of the room with a counter that also had a bunch of stuff displayed along with a few photos and one that I took with her during the time I forced her out to a arcade to play. The walls of the room was covered with all kinds of painting of flowers , rainbows , trees and framed paintings and there was tiny scribbles , miniature flowers and patterns all over the floor .

I sweatdropped and asked myself "I'm never going to get used to this , am I?"

I took a few steps forward but stopped when I felt something touch my feet .

I looked down and sweatdropped again .

Hinamori laid on the floor , next to a sketch book with a pencil in her hands . Her eyes were closed , obviously deep asleep.

"Now how many times has this scene been displayed to me?" I asked no one .

I sighed and squat down , poking her face.

"Hinamori , wake up , its time to go" I said while poking her.

"Mmm.." her eyebrows furrowed tightly as I continued to poke her.

"Come on , wakey" I said.

Her eyes open slightly "Mm? Kuu..kai?"

I grinned "Welcome back to the land of living , sleeping beauty"

She blinked a few times and looked around her "Uh..What happened?"

"I'm guessing that you fell alseep on the floor halfway while painting" I said "Isn't that what I always tell you when I catch you sleeping on random spots of your apartment?"

She tilted her head at me and blinked a few more times "Oh... Why are you here , Kuukai? If I remember properly , its saturday today..."

I sweatdropped again "You know , its really hard to keep myself hydrated when I'm near you cause all I do is sweat?"

She looked at me in confusion.

I sighed "The dance recital , remember?"

She gasped "Oh yeah , I forgot!"

"I kinda saw that coming..." I muttered.

"I'll get dressed right away!" she shouted . She ran towards her wardrobe , but not before tripping a few times on her bed and a few sketch book and pencil and stuff which she left there.

"Woah!" she shouted as she fell flat on the floor.

"Hey , you okay?" I asked as I rushed to her side.

She looked up at me with a red a sore face . She smiled "Yes"

I sweatdropped again "Do you have water? My body is running out of fluids"

She pointed to a jar of water on the kitchen counter next to a few glasses.

I sighed and walked to it , helping myself to a large amount of water.

I sipped the 5th cup slowly as I turned around . Only to find myself seeing Hinamori who was halfway through removing her shirt.

My eyes went wide and I spat the water out . Turning away quickly , I shouted "HINAMORI! I'M STILL HERE YOU IDIOT!"

There was silence for a few seconds until I heard a 'Oh'

I fell down to the floor epicly.

Groaning , I stood up while making sure I didn't turn around.

"Kuukai , I'm dressed already" Hinamori said.

I gave a loud sigh of relieve as I turned around.

I narrowed my eyes at her "Why are you wearing that?"

She blinked "Is there something wrong with it?"

I scanned her up and down . She was wearing a white long sweatshirt with jeans . Her curly hair was held up with a black elastic band.

"Yes. Shouldn't normal girls at your age be dressing up in skirts , dresses , fashionable shirts , accessories and such? Like..fingerless gloves and all that weird sparkly clips and ribbons?" I asked making her raised her eyebrow.

"Why do you ask that?" she asked.

"Because you're a girl and you're not acting like one. I can't believe you even dyed your pink hair blonde . I guess I should be thankful you didn't straighten it" I said , shaking my head.

She giggled.

I narrowed my eyes again "Why are you giggling?"

She smiled "1. Because you sound like my father . 2. I can't believe you know all that accessories stuff. 3. Its hard to take care of straighten hair . 4. You should already know all these stuff"

"Yeah..I guess so huh.. And not to mention , even though you don't act fashionable and stuff , you're pretty enough cause theres always those bunch of people waiting outside the school gate shouting 'Beautiful!' everyday to you" I said.

She blinked "They were shouting to me?"

"Huhhhhhhhhh?" I asked , my jaw falling to the ground.

She laughed rubbing her head "I thought they were shouting to some kind of school idol or something.."

I blinked and chuckled .

She tilted her head at me "Is something funny?"

"Yes , your air-headness" I said.

She pouted "I'm not an air-head"

"Sure you're not . Lets go" I said pushing her out of the door.

(Later)

(Concert Hall)

"Hinamori" Kuukai said.

"Yes?" I said , smiling as I turned towards him.

Suddenly , a black cashmere scarf was wrapped around my neck . I blinked and stared up at Kuukai .

He grinned "I saw them on the streets and thought it might fit you. Its pretty cold in here . You're neck and ears are especially sensitive to the cold , right?"

I looked at the scarf for a while and smiled , touching it "Its warm.."

His grin deepened.

I smile "Kuukai..I wish you were my real brother"

"Oh come on , what's the difference anyway?" he chuckled.

I giggled "Yeah.."

'The Fujisaki Recital shall start now . Please keep all handphones and cameras away'

"Oh , its starting.." Kuukai said.

Purple light filled the stage . I noticed someone standing in the middle of the stage . The person was dressed in a complicated kimono and his movements were absolutely graceful.

I gasped "Amazing.."

"I know , she's really good isn't she" Kuukai asked.

Suddenly , I felt a huge desire , as though something was burning in me.

I stood up abruptly and ran out after shouting to Kuukai , "Kuukai! I'm going home first!"

"Huh? What?" I heard he call after me but I continued running until I reached my apartment .

Shoving the key into the hole , I unlocked the door and ran inside . I grabbed one of the clean canvas and placed it next to my bed.

I grabbed a few pencil , paint brush and paints and kneeled down in front of the canvas.

I closed my eyes , focusing . A smile appeared on my face as the scene from just now appeared slowly into my head as though magic . I took a deep breath and raised a pencil up.

(Kuukai's POV)

I showed the staff the pass that allowed me to the backstage to the staff and he led me to the room.

I knocked a few times shouted "I'm coming in!"

I opened the door to see Nagihiko fully dressed as a girl .

Stifling a laugh , I said "Man , I sure love this scene"

He glared at me .

I raised my hands "Fine , sorry"

He sighed "Dammit , each time I invite you , you say the same thing.."

I laugh "That's because its too funny"

He glared at me again and I shut up.

"Anyways , wheres your friend?" he asked.

I rubbed my neck "About that..."

He raised his eyebrows.

I sighed "I'm not too sure myself , she ran out halfway through"

He blinked "Thats...weird.."

"Oh , Nagi , you free tomorrow?" I asked.

"Why?" he eyed me suspiciously.

I grinned "Wanna go her house?"

"Are you sure? I'm not to supportive of the idea of suddenly appearing at someone's house" he said.

"Oh , you'd be more than shock to see how welcoming she is" I muttered.

"Huh?"

I grinned and raised the key she gave me "Besides , I have the key"

"And why would you have that?" he said narrowing his eyes at me.

I laughed nervously "I didn't steal it! She gave me!"

"And why would she?" he said.

I just grinned.

"Anyways , I'll meet you tomorrow outside her apartment ok? I mail you the place later . Seeya" I said and left the room.

Then , I remembered something.

I walked back next to the door and said "By the way , I forogt to say that its weird for you to speak like a guy when your dressed as a girl" and ran for my dear life , ignoring the shouts and crash from the room.
