As another wonderful concert came to a close for the Vocaloid gang, everyone was truly excited.
"Great performance everyone. Wonderful job as well Rin and Len." Alex said as he quickly changed their outfits with his pad back to the default setting. Miku soon latched onto his arm with a smile.
"Alex, you promised after the show we go out for Teppanyaki!" her eyes glinting for his approval.
"Yeah I did. How about it all?" Alex looked at the gang. Everyone was on board for it and off they went.
As they were seated down at the large table surrounding two grills, the gang took orders. Miku looked on the menu fanatically for what she wanted. She then turned to Alex with tears in her eyes.
"N-no Spring Onions..." Miku said lowly with a long Miku afterward. Alex then pulled a plastic bag with chopped spring onion out from his bag.
"Glad I brought some with me then."
They were cute together. Kaito leaned over to Meiko to see the booze on the menu.
"Hmm...are you just going to get beer again or shall we split Sake?" Kaito asked. Meiko closed the menu and bonked Kaito on the head playfully.
"Of course we are getting Sake. If I leave you out then it's no fun for me." She winked, causing Kaito to almost tackle her in a hug but thankfully Mikuo intercepted with his Spring Onion on his head.
Over by Luka and Gakupo, the two were deciding if they wanted to split a meal between them and Toeto as Luka felt like getting Sushi. Neru and Haku already got their orders down but Haku requested some beer to drink. Her attitude was more open now that they were in a more friendly environment. The Kagamine Twins, already deciding on something, decided to play around with each other like the kids they looked like. Even Gumi and Mikuo got on the right foot...And yet only one member of the family feels alone. The twin pink drill hair style and french bread loving Teto. She eyed everyone already having their own fun with one another while she looked back at her menu.
"Even with a bigger family, I feel left out." she quietly said to herself. She looked over at the twins again, seeing Ritsu trying to join in on the fun.
The meal was great and everyone had fun in their own way as they loaded up on the bus. The ride home was very calming as the radio played a Kaito hit since his own return with Meiko as well. The new vocal box was amazing and even made Kaito blush in embarrassment.
They all headed to their rooms as they reached the mansion and went to bed. All except one. Teto. She turned over to her left to see Gumi and Ritsu sound asleep in their beds. Without making much noise, Teto tiptoed out of the bedroom in her red and pink pajamas and headed downstairs to the pool area. The roof could be parted to show a glass roof which let in sunlight or in this case, moonlight. She sat on a chair near the pool as she sighed.
"Everyone had so much fun and yet I am the only one depressed. It's so frustrating! I am never this sad!" She cried out, trying to figure out the problem in her life. What made her feel so alone?
"Mistress Teto, what are you doing up?" The voice of Ruko called out. Unlike the other Vocaloids, she never has to change her clothes or sleep.
"GAH! D-don't do that to me!" Teto shouted.
"Forgive me. Mistress Teto, it is almost one in the morning. You must get some sleep or suffer being fatigued." Ruko reminded her.
"Yeah yeah, but I just can't. I keep thinking about how I feel alone. That everyone has someone and I have no one." She commented. Ruko tilted her head in confusion.
"Maybe being around those who have found their Mates have made you feel this way? I suggest you should go out and try this 'Dating' thing I hear." Ruko stated. Teto shrugged.
"I guess...but I wish to be alone for now."
The night continued on as Teto sat by the pool area. Her eyes feeling heavier by the minute.
"Dating...but who would even consider loving someone like me? My music is below sub par and I am only good to be some kind of greeter than a worker." Teto continued to speak until-
"What are you doing up this late, Teto?" The voice of Ritsu called out. What was weird was he wore a more men styled sweatpants and T-shirt which showed his man like body more. Teto was caught off guard by this and fell into the pool. She quickly swam out and coughed some water from her body. Ritsu ran over to help.
"Hey! Are you alright?" He asked, his eyes focused on her face more than her wet clothes that clearly exposed her underwear.
"I-i'm fine." Teto responded as she took a towel and ran off.
"Ritsu looks...Hansom."
The next morning, Teto slept like a rock till Gumi started to shake her out of it.
"Wakey wakey Teto! It's another awesome day!" Teto responded to Gumi by rolling over to face her back to Gumi.
"Not now...five more minutes..." the result of last night tired her mentally and even physically. Gumi huffed.
"Well if you will not get up then I will eat your share of breakfast. I heard Ruko made something special with bread-" And just like that, Teto swiftly changed her clothes and headed downstairs in a hurry.
"Don't eat my bread!" She cried out just as she bumped into Ritsu, now in his normal attire with the fake chest.
"Well look who finally woke up?" Ritsu smiled as he handed her the plate of food to her. As she tried to avoid eye contact, she headed to her seat to eat at.
"T-thank you." Teto shakily said. Mikuo caught wind of the weird reaction and leaned over to Ritsu.
"Hey Ritsu. What did you two do last night?" He asked. Ritsu perked himself up.
"I didn't do anything. She was awake last night and I thought if I could talk to her then she could calm down and sleep. All that ended up was her falling in the pool and running out. If anything, she might think of me as a pervert." He quietly responded to not cause a ruckus. Though looking back at Teto again, her eyes had the same lonely feel as he saw last night.
So after breakfast, Ritsu called Teto into their room to talk it out.
"Okay Teto. Tell me what is eating at you. You know acting sad makes us worry." Ritsu asked first as Teto sat on the edge of her bed.
"Well...Everyone has someone and I feel alone in the family. I don't make great music either so I feel left out." Teto avoided any eye contact with Ritsu still as her head aimed downward. Ritsu sighed.
"I can understand that, but what about last night? After you fell in the pool you ran away like I was trying to take advantage of you." Teto suddenly looked up at the mention of last night.
"OH! I just remembered there was something I had to do!" Teto stated, attempting to run but only getting her arm caught by Ritsu's hand.
"You are not leaving that fast. Look at me again." Ritsu demanded, more man than female at this point. Teto submitted and told Ritsu.
"You look Hansom. Without looking like a girl, you look so great. Please don't tell anyone I called you that! I know your fans say you are cute and-Wha?!" Teto was suddenly pinned to the wall. Ritsu gave a light smirk.
"So...you think I am Hansom? That is a first, especially coming from a female." Deep down, Teto's artificial heart was beating faster than before. She closed her eyes and readied herself for this kiss. Ritsu then placed one hand on the right side of Teto's cheek...and began pinching it.
"You look so cute when you don't know what to do!" He laughed like a kid as Teto pulled away. She really thought he was going to kiss her. So she tried to calm down for the moment.
"You really forced my heart to run faster than normal...Don't do that again!" She cried out as Ritsu continued to laugh, even falling on the floor.
"Oh god! I-i can't stop-" His laughing would slow down soon but he felt happy. As he finally could talk, Ritsu stood up.
"I never laughed that hard in my life." The after giggles still there. Teto puffed her cheeks and begun beating Ritsu on the head with her hands.
"You are mean! You honestly made me believe that I was going to get a kiss from you!" she blurred out. Ritsu caught one of her wrists to stop her.
"Tell you what. Saturday night, you and I will head on out to the city and enjoy a night of fun. It's to make up for laughing at you." Ritsu honestly said as Teto froze.
"What? A date?" she shakily responded. Ritsu nodded.
"Yep. Oh and I promise to dress more like a male this time."
As the days went on, Teto and Gumi spent their time helping Teto with her date and preparing.
"Okay Teto. Remember that holding his hand is a sign of affection, but latching onto his arm is a sign of pure interest." Gumi read out loud from a book as Teto looked through her clothes.
"B-but we are not even going that far yet. What does it say if you just want to know him without contact?" Gumi heard her question and flipped through the book.
"Here! It says that if you just want to know him but do not even attempt to hold his hand, it shows you are not that into him and other women have the chance to snag him from you." Gumi narrated. Teto took out another dress, this one black with crimson frills at the edge of the skirt while the top part was styled with an open spot to expose a small bit of cleavage. She compared it to a one piece but thought it was not hip for where they would end up.
"He didn't even tell me where he was taking me..." Teto felt frustrated. Gumi tried to cool her down.
"Hey, it's okay! The book says that men tend to like women dressing in something they have never seen or would not expect. S-so maybe if you go with the nice frilled skirt?"
As Teto pulled it up, she noticed the back part was opened as if to allow wings.
"I just might have to wear a black shirt underneath."
As Teto put the clothes away, Gumi was caught off guard.
"Wait a minute! It says that putting on lucky underwear or sexy underwear can increase the chances of your date ending with intercourse." Gumi stated as Teto shot the idea down.
"Thanks but no thanks. I will be alright with wearing normal stuff. You can't believe everything written by humans after all." Teto looked through one of her drawers for a black shirt to match with it. Gumi closed the book and walked over to Teto, pushing her cheeks together and turning her head to Gumi.
"You should put on lipstick!" She exclaimed.
"Lipstick?" Her words muffled by Gumi's antics.
"Yeah! I know the perfect color and I can help put it on!" Gumi announced. Just then, Mikuo knocked on the door.
"You two done yet? Ritsu said girls take long but this is ridiculous!" this made Gumi blush.
"W-w-wait...This is a double date?!" Gumi shouted out loud. Mikuo, standing outside the door and hiding his own embarrassment, explained.
"Ritsu said that I could go out on the town if I could find a date...and since it's hard enough finding girls I might as well bring you along, Gumi." This caused Gumi to rummage through her drawers.
"Where's my Mint Green panties?!" it made Teto feel uncomfortable at the moment.
"It's just underwear...it's not like it has magical powers."
After settling on an orange tank with a yellow-green vest and yellow-green shorts, Gumi headed down stars to where Mikuo was wearing a more formal version of his attire and Ritsu wearing white jeans to match his indigo long sleeved shirt. Without the fake breasts, Ritsu looked like a man with long hair. Teto on the other hand hid behind the corner before the stairs.
"Come on out Teto. No need to hide it!" Gumi encouraged her. Teto slowly exposed her attire. The black skirt with crimson frills and black top. Where Gumi wore her favorite lime green colored lipstick, Teto had dark red.
"You look great Teto. Now let's get this party started." Ritsu complimented her as she walked with the group and out into the nearby city. The lights at night were very bright for the group as they felt intoxicated by it.
"I've never been out like this before!" Gumi cheerfully expressed her excitement as she latched onto Mikuo's arm. Mikuo on the other hand felt annoyed. He only came because it was his first time too.
"So what shall we do first? We could have some fun before dinner." Ritsu looked around then at Teto.
"Umm...How about we go to that arcade?" Teto proposed. Gumi was super excited by this and tugged Mikuo with her.
"Wahoo!" she shouted as the others followed. Gumi situated herself at the air hockey table. All that practice with Luka has made her unbeatable that night. Teto was playing an arcade version of the Project Diva game with Ritsu watching. She was on the average level of the game with a score of Great.
"Nice job." Ritsu announced to Teto. As she was about to reply, a male fan noticed Ritsu and asked for his autograph. He couldn't deny it and decided to write his name in a girl like fashion. Gumi and Mikuo came over as well just as Teto was finally able to speak.
"Thanks." Though she did feel neglected for a moment. Ritsu noticed her mood.
"How about we grab a bite?" Ritsu offered as the gang followed him down the street and to a ramen cart. Even if it was cheap the gang enjoyed it all the same. While eating, Teto noticed Gumi snatching the cookie out of Mikuo's bowl. Teto looked over to Ritsu's bowl. She wondered if it was alright to sneak it. Ritsu noticed her gaze and happily gave Teto it in her bowl.
"I am not much into sweets so here." Ritsu said. Teto blushed, unable to say thank you steadily. Gumi nudged Teto and winked as if to tell her to do something.
"O-oh. Ritsu. W-would you like to sing a song with me some time?" she asked. Ritsu started to think.
"Well...I would. I have heard your singing before and it's nice. Though pop is not for you. Maybe a more rock like song would do." Ritsu commented as he watched Teto eat the cookie happily.
"That sounds great! You two should totally rock it out!" Gumi encouraged them. Mikuo nodded.
"Yeah. It would be nice if everyone made music together."
With their bellies full, the four finally headed home. Upon reaching the door, Ruko opened it for them as if waiting for them the whole time.
"I'll take Gumi to her room. No doubt she is in no condition to walk up steps." Mikuo said, carrying a sleeping Gumi on his back who was also drunk as well. Drooling on his good shirt. As Teto wanted to head to her room, she was halted by Ritsu who dragged her to the recording room.
"Ritsu? You want to make music now?" Teto asked. Ritsu shook his head as he managed to unhook her bra from outside the shirt in a moment. Hearing it unhook forced Teto to stand upright.
"The song I want to make is meant for your ears alone." He said easing himself closer to Teto's face. In her mind, she was not counting on Ritsu to already act like this.
"Calm down Teto! M-maybe he is teasing you. After all, it's too soon-" She felt something press against her lips as her eyes widen to see Ritsu kissing her deeply. Teto acted fast and pulled away in shock. Ritsu chuckled.
"Jeez Teto, it was just a kiss." but Teto started to flail at him once more.
"It's not that! You unhooked by bra, Pervert!"
"That is because I know how one works. Remember, I dress as a girl for the masses." Ritsu pulled Teto into a hug as he whispered into her ear.
"Teto. Calm down. I am not planning on doing something like that so soon." Teto slowly calmed herself as she returned his kiss earlier in a more light manner with her arms wrapped around his neck.
"That's more like it." Ritsu commented as the two started to kiss for a while, eventually kissing each others necks. Causing the sensitive Teto to moan and...sing.
'I love you always. I received a kiss from you.
I cannot forget this precious memory of mine.
If dorayaki cannot become my main diet, I'll just have to overwrite it my way.'
"Teto? Were you just singing 'fukkireta'?" Ritsu asked. Teto, blushing like a wildfire, nodded her head.
"Y-yea. It's kind of odd for me to sing out of nowhere." She said but instead received a tighter hug from Ritsu.
"I find that cute. Singing when you are happy." Teto blushed to the point of meltdown as she started to overload and soon enough faint.
"Teto?!"
The following morning, Teto awoke in her pajamas and in her bed. The last thing she remembered was Ritsu calling her cute. Her cheeks flushed again.
"Yo Teto! You up yet?!" Gumi shouted as she then noticed her cheeks.
"Oh ho! So you two got it on last night?" Gumi asked as she crawled on her bed.
"N-no! We d-didn't do anything!" She denied.
"Don't lie. Tell me, did he play with your breasts or did you suck his-" Gumi was then hit with Teto's bread to shut her up.
"Stop it Gumi! I did not suck Ritsu's dick!" she blurted out loud as the house heard it. Especially Ritsu who just so happened to pass by with his female attire on.
"What a shame, Ritsu looked so hot last night and you didn't take the advance. Well come downstars. You are missing breakfast." Gumi said as she left. Ritsu then opened the door to stick his head in.
"Hey Teto, you feeling better? Sorry about last night. I didn't mean to overload your mainframe." he said as Teto just looked at him.
"Tell you what, how about I go downstairs and eat your breakfast for you." Ritsu teased Teto which forced her out of her bed and caused her to run downstairs in her pajamas, shouting out loud to all.
"Don't eat my bread, Ritsu!"
"I swear that girl is REALLY cute. Take it one step at a time, Ritsu."
