So...hey...been a while...huh? -hides as sharp objects are thrown-

"Kaito-niisan! Where are you? It's hot outside!"

Kaito rolled his eyes as Miku's sharp complaining hurt his ears. "I'm almost there Miku-chan. Try being patient."

She huffed and snapped the phone shut, ending the call. Kaito glared at it, then threw it into the cup holder of his car. Thinking back on the days when he use to enjoy Miku's constant babble and all the time they would spend together actually made him shiver.

Miku was 17 going on Drama Queen. She acted as if she was the princess of the whole entire world and everyone should bow down to her every beck and call; especially Kaito.

He flipped his blinker on and turned into the Drop Off/Pick Up section of the school. A little round-about where the students waited at the front entrance for whoever to come pick them up. And there stood his three.

One was furious; tapping her foot with impatience and arms crossed over her chest. The other girl was sitting on the ground, poking at something in the street. And finally, there was Len. They were all three sweating from the sweltering heat, but Len...

His clothes were sticking to his frame so you could easily see his chest and curves through the outfit. His bangs stuck to his forehead and his poor little blue eyes seemed so distressed that Kaito almost slapped himself for getting pleasure out of the scene.

When he pulled up, Miku stomped into the car. "It's about time! How many times have I told you that school gets out right at three?"

Ignoring her, he looked in the rear view mirror at the twins. "You two okay?"

They both met his gaze and Rin nodded then looked away. Len, however, held it. Watching each other seemed to last an eternity to Kaito, when it was only a few minuets. To dismiss it so he could drive on, he gave a small smile. Len's eyes lit up and he smiled in return, then looked over at Rin.

The three engaged in conversation but Kaito remained quiet. He was thinking about several things, Len being one of them. His thoughts would flash back to yesterday when he had the boy tangled up in his arms. He reminded him of a frightened puppy that needed an owner. The whole time Kaito would never fathom that he'd actually had Len in his bed, wanting his attention...No, needing it. It made his lips turn up in a smile and his heart flutter like a young girls.

"So," Miku started, looking out the window, a bit bored. "Who are you going to the dance with Rin?"

She giggled and held up her brother's hand, which she was clutching tightly. "Isn't it obvious? I'm going with Len of course!"

And Kaito's heart sunk. It sunk into a bottomless, black abyss. But he didn't comment at all. He kept his gaze straight, focused on the road. Rin kept babbling on about her plans and when enough time had passed, he dared himself to looked back at the twins through the mirror. To his surprise, and confusion, Len met his gaze. The blonde boy quickly looked away and huffed silently. Kaito just scrunched his brows in confusion.

When they arrived at Meiko's house, of course the alcohol heavy lady wasn't there. Miku and the twins stayed at her house on the weekdays, while they usually stayed at Kaito's on the weekends. It wasn't that they were the parents of these children, but they did take responsibility for them. Miku was actually staying with her older brother, Mikuo, until Luki moved in. The brother and sister got into a huge argument about how he was dating another man and Miku wouldn't stand for it. So she moved out and into Meiko's house.

When they walked in, Rin dragged Len off to the kitchen to show him something. Len tried to argue, but his efforts were futile.

Once they were gone, Miku grabbed Kaito's hand. His head snapped towards her and she simply smiled. "Hey, I've got something really cool that I want to show you in my room!"

By the tone of her voice, Kaito didn't like where this was going. "You know, Miku. I think I better actually head home."

Her brows scrunched and she shook her head. "No. You have to stay because Meiko-oneechan isn't here." Her eyes became pleading and she tugged on his hand. "Please...it will only take a second." He stared down at her for the longest of time. It wasn't that Miku wasn't beautiful, his heart just didn't lie with her. But, knowing that he'd never hear the end of it, he nodded reluctantly as she squealed in excitement.

She dragged him down the hall and into her fluffy teal-colored room. He walked in and sat down in one of her small mushroom chairs. When she turned around from closing the door, she seemed dissatisfied with his choice.
"So..." He started, looking around her room. "What is it? Looks about the same from the last time I saw it."

"I've been thinking..." she said slowly and walked over to him. "We should go out some time. Like we used to."

Kaito shook his head. "No. You've got exams coming up and you need to focus on those." He shut his eyes in slight frustration. "You need to be concentrating on those if you want to get into a good college and make mon-" But his eyes shot open as he felt a pressure on his lap. Miku had straddled herself onto him and wrapped her arms around his neck; leaning down towards him.

"You talk too much."

He glared at her sternly. "Miku. Get up."

She shook her head and smirked. "Don't you remember all the things we use to do? We use to have sooo much fun together." A small frown formed on her face. "But then yous stopped. Why?"

He shook his head. "That's non of your business. Get off now or I'm going to get angry." They stared at each other, eyes locked. Miku's intention was clear, just as Kaito's disagreement with it was equally obvious.

"Hey, Miku. Where did you-" The door swung open and Rin stopped in her tracks. Kaito and Miku's heads snapped to face her, and a small smile curled on her lips. "I'm sorry... Didn't know I was interrupting something." Then she shut the door and Kaito her heard yell, "Oi! Len! You'll never guess what I just saw."

Miku giggled while Kaito's spirits fell. He picked Miku up and threw her onto her bed, then sharply turned and left. What would Len think of him now? No one really knew that they two actually dated.

As he was storming down the hallway, he stopped in his tracks. Wait...what would Len care? He was going to some stupid dance with Rin. That right there proved that he didn't care, nor would he ever. He would probably encourage it.

And even though all along, Kaito knew that Len would never return his love, he still felt his heard break.

Little did he know, that from the story of intrusion coming from Rin's mouth, made someone else's heart break as well.

Wow this was short. But it packed a punch.
