Chapter 3: Next Day~
Shade wakes up first with a huge yawn. He lazily turns his head to the window. He gets up and opens the blinds. The sun hit his eyes. He adjusts his eyes and sees places more clearly.
'Oh yeah... I'm back.' He thought and turns around. Bright and Auler were still asleep. To Shade's point of view of Auler, it looked like he was dreaming something perverted. 'Yet I'm the one called pervert...' Bright wakes up and stretches.
"Good morning, Shade." Bright said with a warm smile. "Slept well?"
"More or less." Shade said and picks up a magazine.
"Read a book for a change!"
"Too boring." He begins to read.
Bright sighs. Auler suddenly sits up. "NO!" He yelled. The two stare at him.
"Are you okay, Auler?" Bright asks.
Auler looks at him and sighs in relief. "I'm okay. Just had a bad dream..."
"What did you dream of?" Shade asks curiously.
He gulps and looks at the two. "The both of you...started d-d-dating!"
The two tilt their heads. Shade walks up to Auler and grabs him by the collar. "I thought I told you not to read yaoi! Idiot!" He growled.
"SORRY! I GOT CURIOUS! I SWEAR!"
"DON'T YOU REMEMBER!? CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT! THE CAT!"
Auler's face goes pale. "OMG! YOU'RE RIGHT! WHAT HAVE I DONE!?" He starts panicking and Shade just watched. 'That'll teach him a lesson.' He thought. Bright smacks him behind the head.
"Stop it! For now lets get ready! I'd like to explore our hometown!" Bright said.
"I agree... Shall we go?"
"We have to get ready first!"
Shade was already dressed. Bright and Auler got ready 30 minutes later. They leave their hotel room and make it to the sidewalk.
It was peaceful and beautiful in the morning. They walked up the road and some people jogged pass them.
"Finally we can get away from all the nuisance." Shade sighed. He stretches and smells the fresh air. "It still smells the same as before."
"Yup." The two agreed.
'I wonder what she's doing?' They all thought.
With the Women~
Rein and Altezza were talking about the latest design in their company while Fine was reading her book. She checks the time and stands up.
"Where are you going?" Rein asks curiously.
"Work." Fine answered.
"Eh!?"
Altezza stands up. "You can't! You said you'll have a day off with us!" She said.
Fine shuts her book. "Sorry, but I don't get paid much and I need the money for bills! Maybe next time." Fine smiles and walks away.
'She always says that.' Rein thought.
"When will she learn to ask for help?" Altezza mumbled. Rein pats her head and smiles at her.
"Her name is Fine! So she'll be fine! That is always her answer when we ask her if she needs help." She said and gets her bag. "Lets go."
"Right!"
The two walk away.
Fine slowly looks back and sees the two walking away. 'Sorry.' She thought then sighed.
Just as she turned, she immediately bumped into something. When she was about to fall back, a hand reached out and stopped that from happening. Fine slowly opens her eyes and looks up. "Toma?" She said.
He grins and helps her up. "What are you doing here?" He asks.
"I should be asking you that." He chuckles.
"Well I need a job so I'm of to my interview. What about you?"
"I'm off to work."
"Eh~ I thought maybe we could hang out after my interview!"
"Next time. Besides we don't know about each other that much." She straightens up. "I'll see you later. Please excuse me, I have work to do!" She starts running.
"Wait!" She stops and turns back. "You dropped this!" Toma throws her something. She catches it and looks at it.
"My hair pin..." She stares at him. He smiles.
"Bye!" He walks the other direction.
Fine blushes a bit, but shakes it off. She continues to run at the opposite direction.
With Rein and Altezza~
Rein had been silent which worried Altezza. "Hey Rein...is something wrong?" Altezza asks. Rein turns to her and smiles.
"Of course!" She answers. "It's just..." She looks up at the sky. "I had this feeling lately. An instinct that hasn't work for a while."
"What is it?"
"Hmm... I don't know myself. That's what I wanna know!"
"Rein? Altezza?" The two look ahead. Tio was standing in front of them with a grocery bag."Are you two on a day?"
"Yeah..."
He looks around. "Let me guess, Fine went to work." He said. The two sadden. He digs in his bag and takes out caramel lollipops. "Here. I learned caramel would make you feel better!" The two take the caramel and open the wrapper. They put it in their mouths and a couple seconds later the two are smile.
"It's good!" Altezza said, "Where did you learn this?"
"Fine told me!"
Rein freezes and stares at Tio. "Fine did?" She said. He nods.
"You can learn from the Glutton Queen!" The girls laugh.
Altezza laughed, "Glutton Queen! Yup that's true!"
Tio smiles. "I better go! I have to feed my dog! Bye!"
"Bye, Tio! See you next time!" He blushes and nods again. He starts to run.
The friends smile at each other and continued to walk.
An Hour Later~
"So bored!" Rein said.
"I know! You said that 100 times already!" Altezza said.
"But I don't know what else to do!"
The two see a recognizable girl. "FINE?!" They sync. Fine turns. They notice the outfit she was wearing.
"Why are you wearing those clothes?" Rein asks.
"My boss told all of our co-workers to raise money for charity. I'm going to sing." Fine answers.
"We wanna sing! Can we join!"
Altezza looks at Rein dumb folded. "Sure?"
Rein snatched the microphone and runs on the stage.
"How is she older than you?" Altezza sighed.
"No idea." Fine sighed as well. She gave her crew a signal and they nod.
Rein starts to sing:
"Perfect Two" (By Auburn)
Oh, oh.
Yeah, yeah,
You can be the peanut butter to my jelly
You can be the butterflies I feel in my belly
You can be the captain and I can be your first mate
You can be the chills that I feel on our first date
You can be the hero and I can be your side kick
You can be the tear that I cry if we ever split
You can be the rain from the cloud when it's stormin'
Or you can be the sun when it shines in the mornin'
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you 'cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
'Cause you're the apple to my pie (pie)
You're the straw to my berry (berry)
You're the smoke to my high (high)
And you're the one I wanna marry (marry)
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You can be the prince and I can be your princess
You can be the sweet tooth I can be the dentist
You can be the shoes and I can be the laces
You can be the heart that I spill on the pages
You can be the vodka and I can be the chaser
You can be the pencil and I can be the paper
You can be as cold as the winter weather
But I don't care as long as we're together
Don't know if I could ever be
Without you 'cause boy you complete me
And in time I know that we'll both see
That we're all we need
'Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
You know that I'll never doubt ya
And you know that I think about ya
And you know I can't live without ya
I love the way that you smile
And maybe in just a while
I can see me walk down the aisle
'Cause you're the apple to my pie
You're the straw to my berry
You're the smoke to my high
And you're the one I wanna marry
'Cause you're the one for me (for me)
And I'm the one for you (for you)
You take the both of us (of us)
And we're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
We're the perfect two
Baby me and you
We're the perfect two
Rein twirls and smiles at the crowd with her cheerful smile.
"This just turned into a contest, didn't it?" Fine said. She glances at Altezza then flinches. Altezza had an aura that is ready to compete.
She clears her throat and starts singing:
"Love You Like A Love Song" (By Selena Gomez)
It's been said and done
Every beautiful thought's been already sung
And I guess right now here's another one
So your melody will play on and on, with the best of 'em
You are beautiful, like a dream come alive, incredible
A centerfold, miracle, lyrical
You saved my life again
And I want you to know baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
Constantly, boy, you played through my mind like a symphony
There's no way to describe what you do to me
You just do to me, what you do
And it feels like I've been rescued
I've been set free
I am hypnotized by your destiny
You are magical, lyrical, beautiful
You are... And I want you to know baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby
I, I love you like a (love song baby) love song, baby
I, I love you (I love you, I love you) like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (like a love song)
No one compares
You stand alone, to every record I own
Music to my heart that's what you are
A song that goes on and on
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I love you...like a love song...
Altezza stood there confidently while the crowd cheered. Rein was cheering as well. Fine looked at the two and shrugged. 'How did this happen?' She asked herself. Altezza walks down the stage and hands Fine the microphone.
"Top that!" She said.
"I guess I have no choice..."
Fine took the microphone and stood on the center of the stage. She takes deep breaths. Ready.
She opens her mouth. The song started to come out:
"I wouldn't Mind" (By He is We)
Merrily we fall
Out of line, out of line
I'd fall anywhere with you
I'm by your side
Swinging in the rain
Humming melodies
We're not going anywhere until we freeze
I'm not afraid, anymore
I'm not afraid
Forever is a long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side
Fine spins and reaches out to the sky. She puts her hand close to her chest and closes her eyes.
Carefully we'll place our destiny
You came and you took this heart, and set it free
Every word you write or sing is so warm to me, so warm to me
I'm torn, I'm torn to be right where you are
She opens her eyes.
I'm not afraid, anymore
I'm not afraid
Forever is a long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side
Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile
I wouldn't mind it at all
I wouldn't mind it at all
You so know me
Pinch me gently
I can hardly breathe
Forever is a long, long time
But I wouldn't mind spending it by your side
Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile
I wouldn't mind it at all
I wouldn't mind it at all
Fine bows at the crowd. Everyone was clapping happily. Rein and Altezza were fascinated by her performance. 'She's like a pro!' They thought. The two sulk in defeat. Fine notices and sighs.
"Thank you all very much! Please donate money so we can give it to charity! They'll be delightful for your help!" Fine said. People started putting money in he bucket.
'I'm glad it went well.' Fine thought. She takes out her pin. 'My lucky pin!' She smiles. She walks down the steps and catches us with her friends.
"You got your wish. We spent most of the time here because of a silly competition you both made up!" Fine giggles.
"Yeah...it was nice." Rein said. The three smile and giggle with each other.
They hear squeals from a distance. "I wonder what's going on?" Altezza said. Rein narrows her eyes to focus better. She sees dirty-blonde hair.
"No way..." She walks ahead of them.
"Wait!" Altezza goes after her. Fine hesitates.
"Hey guys! I'll be back, okay!" She said.
"Sure!" Said one of the crew. She runs after them.
Every time she got closer, they go farther away. "Rein! Altezza! Wait up!" She finally catches up because of their sudden stop. "What's wrong with you two? Going off like that!" They weren't paying attention to her. "What's wrong with you two!?"
Rein points ahead. Fine looks ahead and sudden freeze.
Three males who grown over the years have became handsome and attractive. "N-No way..."
"SHADE/ BRIGHT/ AULER!?" The three yelled in shock.
