"I love it here so much!" Teto exclaimed. "Who knew being a high schooler was so awesome?"
"Wait until the homework piles up," Luka smiled. "Now where are Miku-Chan and Rin-Chan? Normally they aren't late."
As if Luka had said magic words, Rin had walked into the room. Or more like sulked, for Rin seemed upset.
"Is something wrong, Rin-Chan?" Teto asked.
Rin shrugged. "Miku-Chan and I aren't in the same class. I know, a silly thing to be upset about but it's just that . . ." Rin trailed off.
"Don't be so upset," Luka said, "you're still going to see her everyday."
"That's right," Rin's face brightened. "I'm worrying for no reason!"
"Now where is Miku-Chan?" Luka wondered aloud.

Len was walking down the hall as he made his way to the music room. He was about to turn a corner when a small figure bumped into him. As he fell and he saw the girl also fall to her behind. "I am so sorry! Are you okay?"
"It's my fault," the girl said as she stood up and brushed her uniform off. "I have a bad habit of running into people."
"You sound like my best friend," Len laughed as he stood up.
"I thought I was your best friend," the girl's voice said.
It wasn't until Len really looked at her that he recognized the girl before him. What had really thrown him off was the hair. "Miku-Chan?!" he exclaimed. "You cut your hair?!"
"Yeah; don't you like?" she asked as she twirled around, allowing the hair to fly freely. Her once knee length hair was now a couple inches past her shoulders and, instead of pigtails, she wore her hair lose.
"Why did you cut it?" Len asked, still in shock.
"So you hate it?" Miku confirmed as she crossed her arms.
"I just didn't see the point in cutting it," Len said. When he saw Miku walk away he asked, "Where are you going? The music room is in the other direction."
"I left my bag in another room," Miku answered. "I'll be there in five."

"Rin, I hope you're happy," Len told his twin when he entered the room.
"What'd I do?" the blond innocently asked.
"You gave Miku-Chan the idea to cut her hair," Len answered.
"She actually cut it?!" Rin said with complete disbelief.
"She did," Len said, "just passing her shoulders."
"I guess I don't know Miku-Chan as well as I thought I did," Rin thought.
"Looks like you have to grow your hair out," Teto smirked.
The realization hit Rin right on the head. "I don't wanna grow my hair!"
"Too bad," Luka sighed, "you told Miku-Chan that if she cut her hair then you would grow yours out. You don't want to go back on your word and make Miku-Chan feel bad that she cut her hair for no reason, do you?"
Rin gave a defeated sigh. "No."
"Hi everyone!" Miku said when she entered the room.
"I see you cut your hair," Luka said as if she didn't know.
"Yep!" Miku nodded her head. "Now Rin-Chan has to grow her's out."
"Of course I do," Rin said oh so unenthusiastically.
"But it will look real pretty," Teto said in an attempt to make Rin think the situation wasn't that bad.
Miku set her bag down. "So are we ready to start practice? I have a new song I want to show everyone."
"Let me see," Rin said. Miku handed her the sheet. "This is an unusual song."
"Well my skills have been on the frizz lately so either we'll play someone else's song or you can quit complaining," Miku said as she crossed her arms.
Luka took the sheet from Rin. "It's not bad," she said after looking over it, "but I don't think any of use can play that fast. Can you even sing that fast?"
Miku snatched the sheet from Luka. "No. Fine, you all win. How about we do another song?"
"Calm down, Miku," Rin said, "writer's block happens to everybody; it's nothing to be ashamed of. Besides, there are plenty of other songs for you to sing."
Miku sighed. "How about somebody else just sings."
"Are you sure, Miku-Chan?" Len asked.
Miku nodded. "I'm sure."

Both Rin and Len had noticed that throughout practice Miku hadn't been herself. Instead of always smiling and having a good time, she was more reserved and a little sulky.
"Are you okay, Miku-Chan?" Len asked her when they had finished up for the day.
"I'm fine," Miku said as she picked up her bag. When she noticed that he didn't look convinced she said, "No problems."
Author's Note: My sisters went to camp today and won't be back until Friday! :D I'm happier than a slinky on an escalator (so I stole that from a Geiko commercial, big deal)! *happy dances*
Rin: *covers eyes out of shame* I really should hot glue her feet to the floor.
xXCelesteXx: Congrats on being the first reviewer! :3 Here's a taco (because I'm too unique to hand out cookies). *gives taco*
Yes, I made Miku-Sama cut her hair, but it's still technically long though. I was thinking of the Rolling Girl PV when I was planning this so I decided to have Miku-Sama's hair be about the same length as the girl in the PV. As for Rin-Chan, I was watching some Project Diva F videos on YouTube when I stumbled across one with future styled Rin-Chan in it. All I could think was "She's so pretty!" Not to mention that in the story she's a second year high school student, which is (if you ask me) a fancy way of saying she's in the eleventh grade; so, in a way, she's already almost grown up. Don't worry though, I'll make her hair grow very slowly (like mine :P).
Hahaha! I love that! X'D I'm going to put those lines in the story just because they're so funny. Thanks, Celeste-Chan. :3
nekopyon: How is talking about hair cuts so humorous to you? And wow. Neko-Chan: the only person I know who actually looks forward to emo scenes.
Mirakurun26: I wish you the best of luck. :) I wish I could grow my hair that long, but my hair grows so slowly. The longest my hair's ever been was about as long as Luka-San's, but my hair stylist decided to chop half of it off. -.- From now on I cut my own hair.
This time I won't leave Miku-Sama's problems untouched! Not to mention there are other things I have planned so I need to make sure they all work together. :/ Wish me luck.
