Misaki and Ichirou avoided each other for weeks after they almost kissed. The only communication they had was when the talent agent contacted them and told them they would be on a flight to Tokyo in a month if they could come up with a band name. They decided to name their band "Kako no Koe."

They were now on the flight to Tokyo with Misaki sitting right next to Ichirou. Kazuki didn't know that they had almost kissed and didn't understand why no one was talking.

"Did you to get into a fight?" Kazuki asked them both.

Ichirou didn't even move his gaze from the floor and Misaki quickly looked out of the window she was seated next to.

"Come on you guys...you can't be like this! We are about to get big and famous! You should be a lot more hyped than this. Whatever it is I suggest you guys get over it so we can impress this record company."

The rest of the flight was frustratingly quiet. Kazuki fell asleep within five minutes, and Ichirou seemed to be trying to guess what color blue they used for the carpet color.

Finally, the dreadful flight ended and all three went to the hotel they booked a few weeks in. Misaki was overjoyed when she figured out that their room had two bedrooms. Kazuki ended the streak of no words when he suggested that they go and get lunch. Misaki and Ichirou nodded silently and Kazuki sighed heavily.

After walking around for forty minutes around the foreign city, they decided on a sushi grill.

Once they payed the bill, they decided to go walking around a little more but that idea was cut when a group of girls screamed in their direction and started to chase after Kazuki and Ichirou.

"OH MY GOD, IT'S REALLY THEM AHHHHHH!" The group of teenage girls screamed running towards them.

Ichirou and Kazuki looked back and then made a mad dash for the hotel room they were an hours walk away from.

"DON'T THINK YOU CAN RUN AWAY FROM MY LOVE DARLING. I DIDN'T DO TRACK FOR NOTHING!" One of the girls only ten feet away from them shouted.

Kazuki, Ichirou, and Misaki were linked by their hands in a line running and swerving in between shocked and confused people. Cars honked and almost smashed into them as they raced across the streets to get to the next sidewalk. Kazuki was hoping that after five minutes the teenage girls would stop there pursuit, but when he looked back they looked more determined than ever to get to them. He didn't mind having girls like him, but they looked like they were thirteen or fourteen and they glared at them like they were the meal of the day.

They ran for what seemed like days and thought they had lost them when they didn't hear crazy shouts about Kazuki being someone's baby daddy or husband. Misaki was the first to recover her breath and looked around.

"Where are we?" she started to panic.

Ichirou and Kazuki tiredly looked around at the unfamiliar stores and streets in front of them.

"I have no Idea, but that doesn't matter. Are you ok, Misaki?" Ichirou questioned.

Kazuki just stared at his friend.

"Woahh-ho-ho! So this is what has been goin' on between you two?! Rawr! I didn't know, sorry!" Kazuki hooted.

"Ah-no-tha-" was all Ichirou could muster as the group of teenage girls rounded the corner and made eye contact with him.

"WHAT. THAT BITCH IS HOLDING HANDS WITH ICHIROU?! GET HER!"

Misaki and Ichirou looked down and realized that they were still attached to each other. Suddenly, six crazy teens came hurdling towards Misaki. Ichirou instinctively tightened his hand around hers and began to run in the opposite direction. Kazuki tried to follow them but was blocked by the congested street in front of him. He watched desperately as the girls trailed behind his two friends.

Ichirou and Misaki were turning corner after corner through back allies and backyards. In one backyard they tripped over a bench that had an old woman that had been tanning naked the moment before. Ichirou landed on top of her with his hands groping her breasts on accident.

"What-What are you doing, Takahashi!?" Misaki yelled.

"I-No-This isn't what it-Um-No," Ichirou tried to say before Misaki snatched his hands away from the old woman and continued there mission of getting away.

Happily, after years of running, they came to a park just as the sun was setting and realized they had lost the crazy girls behind them.

Misaki looked around after regaining her breath for the billionth time that day.

"Hey, do you know where we are?" Misaki asked for the second time within a few hours.

"No..." Ichirou glumly said.

Misaki tried to call someone but her phone service didn't work outside of Nagasaki. She asked Takahashi if he had a phone, but it turned out that he didn't because he didn't think it was necessary. With that in mind, they tried getting a map from a store. Once they got a map, Misaki began to search for the name of the hotel they were staying at but then her face crumpled in confusion.

"Do you know the name of the hotel?"

Both stared at each other for a brief moment.

"No..."

"Uh, well then do you remember the street name?"

"No..."

Now, Misaki put up the map with a sigh.

"How much money do you have one you?" she asked.

"Um, why?"

"Well, we obviously can't sleep on the roads. We'll book a night in the hotel down the road. It should be pretty cheap because it doesn't look fancy," she said.

Images of Misaki and him having to share a room flew through his mind.

"B-But um, wouldn't that require us in one room and-"

"I know! Just shut up and let's go. I don't want to think about it," Misaki cut him off.

They reached the hotel, and Misaki's prediction of it being was proven correct. However, since it wasn't a nice hotel, each room only had one bed. Misaki frantically wished that it had two beds but it was late, and she knew they couldn't afford a price higher than the one this hotel gave. Once in the room, they both looked at each other and to the single bed that lay in front of them. Misaki put her hand up to her face and shook her head for a moment before walking up to the bed and then laying down on it.

"Hey, I don't bite. I won't make you sleep on the floor," Misaki embarrassingly said as she covered herself with the blanket.

Ichirou slowly approached the bed and got in beside her facing the opposite direction. His mind was bouncing off of the walls inside his head. This was the first time he had ever slept next to someone, and it was the girl that he liked. Sweat started to trickle down his neck and back as nervous thought after nervous thought crept into his mind.

"We are in the same bed together...I wonder if she is thinking of anything? No, she's been avoiding me...does she not like me? AHG, why did I try to kiss her...I need to set this straight. So many weird things have been happening these past few weeks and my hands...my hands...touched that old woman's boobs..as soon as we get back to the original hotel I am finding a scrubber and some hand sanitizer. I wonder if Misaki still thinks I did that on purpose. Man, I just called her Misaki. Why do I even care to call her that? I don't want to say it...I can't say it...this is so confusing. I like her, do I like her? Damn it, look what this girl has done to me...the way she makes me feel...it's almost as it she's..no. Don't remember her. I told myself I'd forget. But, what to do about Misaki...Misaki...Misaki..." He couldn't take it anymore.

"Misaki."

Misaki, almost asleep, opened her eyes and jumped at the sound of her name so close to her.

"Y-Yeah...?"

"I need to talk to you."

Hey! Hope you liked the chapter! We did wonderful in the play, but sorry for making you guys wait a little _. Heh heh, I hope you guys noticed what I put inside of Ichirou's thoughts :) Sorry if it is ooc or boring or whatever. Thanks for reading!
