I do not own Brothers Conflict. I hope you guys like this chapter.

Chapter 7

Ema, Rose, Yusuke, Wataru, Juli, Masaomi, and Kaname were watching a comercial that Futo was on. Rose had a blank face.

'What's with him?' Rose though. 'He's really can pull of his acting.'

"Ugh, I can't take this!" Said Yusuke.

"Good for Fu!" Said Kaname.

"One more time!" Said Wataru replaying the commercial again.

"That's enough already, isn't it?" Said Yusuke taking the remote from Wataru.

'Thank you Yusuke.' Rose thought. Wataru was complaining that Futo was cool and all of his friends were jealous that Futo was his big brother.

"But this commercial has been well-received, right?" Said Masaomi.

"I hear Fu's popular with girls who are older than him, too." Said Kaname.

'So in other words he man that loves older girls.' Rose thought. 'What the hell?'

"It was apparently a real coup for him to be chosen." Said Ukyo walking to the living room with drinks and a tray.

"Is that true?" Said Ema.

"It seems this travel agency has never hired a pop star before." Said Ukyo.

"It's really something, you know?" Said Masaomi.

"As a result, the resort in New Caledonia where this was shot is being inundated with reservations." Said Ukyo.

"That's incredible." Said Ema.

"Yeah, amazing." Said Rose sarcastically. Ema looked at Rose with worry in her eyes.

"Ugh! I don't get what people see in him!" Said Yusuke.

"Hate as ever, aren't you?" Said Kaname.

"That stinking brat!" Said Yusuke. Rose was looking at Yusuke going to say something but Masaomi beat her too it.

"Yusuke." Said Masaomi. "I don't think those are words an older brother should use in reference to his younger brother."

"My bad..." Said Yusuke.

"Hey, Hey, never mind all that!" Said Wataru. "I want to go there, too! New Currydonia!"

"Wataru, it's 'New Calendonia.'" Said Rose.

"Great idea." Said Kaname getting close to Rose whispering in her ear. "I'd love to go just the two of us, imouto-san." Rose looked at Kaname.

"No way." Said Rose.

"Then how about we all go together? Overseas." Said Masaomi.

"What?" Said Rose.

"Huh?" Said Yusuke.

"What?" Said Ukyo. They were all looking at Masaomi and Wataru was jumping up and down happy.

"A-All of us, together?" Said Ukyo.

"Yeah. How about doing it during summer break?" Said Masaomi. "Well?" Masaomi was looking at Rose. "You're the one I most hope to please, you know."

"Huh?" Said Rose.

"I'm sure you three have entrance exams to think of, including Rose being the president of your school must be more work than other students." Said Masaomi. "But don't you think you could also use a little break?"

"M-Masa-nii..." Said Yusuke. Masaomi was just smiling at them.

Ema, Rose, and Yusuke were walking to the gate of their school.

"That reminds me..." Said Yusuke. "What're you going to do about that thing?" Rose and Ema were looking at Yusuke with confused faces. "You know, that thing about going overseas this summer."

"Oh, we like to go, but there are the entrance exams, too, so..." Said Ema.

"But I mean, Masa-nii said it, too..." Said Yusuke. "Don't you two think we should use a little break, too? Actually, if it'd be your guys first time overseas, do you have a passport?" Rose stopped and think about.

"Actually me and my band didn't go overseas for concert so I don't I have one. Plus Onee-chan doesn't go overseas that often, so we both don't have one." Said Rose stop walking.

"Kyo-nii's good for that type of thing." Said Yusuke.

"Oh, right. That's true." Said Ema.

"Don't you two think we gotta take the break here?" Said Yusuke.

"That's true... If it's just a little." Said Ema. Rose looked ahead to see vice-president and the chairman with a papers. Rose sighed and Ema looked at her. "Are you okay? Your not stressing yourself with being the president are you?"

"I'm fine Onee-chan, soon the vice-president and the chairman will show me the papers they are holding since it's my job to look over them." Said Rose walking ahead with Ema leaving Yusuke standing there starring at them. Rose heard voice that sound like a teasing voice.

"I see an idiot fantasizing about something pervy." Said the voice. Ema and Rose turned around to see Futo and a limo behind him.

"F-Futo!" Said Yusuke. Futo walked up to Yusuke.

"Having pervy fantasies to bright and early? Talk about unwholesome." Said Futo. Rose heard someone call president, president. Rose looked behind her to see the vice-president and the chairman run up to her.

"These are the papers that will be coming up soon." Said the chairman.

"Coming up?" Said Rose looking at the papers. Rose was listening to the conversation from Yusuke and Futo.

"You were admiring cute Rose-nee-san's butt, weren't you?" Said Futo. Rose didn't turn around to look at him she was only paying attention to the papers in her hands.

"You bastard! You better knock it off already!" Said Yusuke. Then they hear about girls saying Futo Asakura.

"Thanks for fixing my buutton, Yusuke-nii." Said Futo. Rose can hear many whispering and saying something about Yusuke being Futo's big brother. Rose couldn't take it anymore so she turned her head.

"That's enough!" Said Rose making her the center of attention. Yusuke was surprise to hear her voice like that and so was Ema and Futo. Rose sighed. "Asakura Futo! Next please do not make a scene. I understand that you are pop star and Yusuke is his your big brother but I am only giving you warning. Alright..." Rose had devilish smile and turned her back on Futo. "Fu-chan~!" The girls were chuckling a little. Thinking that is a cute name. Rose waved her hand and walked to the school. "See ya. Come on Onee-chan."

"H-Hai." Said Ema walking next to Rose. Rose was looking down at the papers in her hands.

'Hinode Festival is coming up. That means a lot of work, doesn't it?' Rose thought sighing.

In the classroom the class representative was talking about the Hinode festival and what kind of class project they should be working on. The representative looked at Rose. Rose nodded her head and begun to stand up standing next to the representative.

"There will all lot of people that will have the same decisions. So you must choose a one that not a lot of people could choose from or could even think of. Plus this our final Culture fest so lets make a great one alright? Does anybody have idea?" Said Rose. Rose looked at Yusuke. "Asahina you look like you have an idea."

"Um...uh...Well...Like, a cafe or something, right?" Said Yusuke.

"A cafe, huh?" Said the representative. "That might be good."

"Me!" Said a girl.

"You got something, Imari?" Said the class-rep.

"If we're doing a cafe, I think we can't do a normal one." Said Imari. Rose smiled and nodded her head.

"We'll what kind of cafe do you think we should have Imari?" Said Rose.

"For example... a butlers cafe!" Said Imari.

"A b-butler cafe?" Said Yusuke. Rose chuckled looking at her exciting face. In the end many people have decided what cafe and the winner was Butler cafe.

"We'll the class project is going to be doing Butler cafe." Said Rose smiling. Rose can see Ema, Imari, and Yusuke talking.

"Is everything alright president?" Said the class-rep.

"Yeah." Said Rose. "This going to be one interesting festival don't you think?" The class-rep nodded his head smiling.

The three of them were now at home in the living room.

"A butler cafe? How interesting." Said Ukyo.

"There's nothing interesting about it." Said Yusuke.

"If it's a butler cafe, what will you two be doing, imouto-chans?" Said Kaname.

"The girls will be handling kitchen duties." Said Rose.

"I see." Said Kaname. "If the tea's being made by you two, maybe I'll come have some, imouto-chans."

"If it's tea, you're drinking it right now!" Said Yusuke.

"There's the entrance exams as well, but I hope you have fun." Said Ukyo.

"Thank you." Said Ema smiling. Rose only sighed. Ema looked at Rose and Rose caught her gaze.

"You need to stop worrying." Said Rose. "Things are going to be more ruckus and everyone was will going places making the council having to work extra hard than before." Ema nodded her head.

They were now in school and Ema and Yusuke were carrying boxes. Rose was checking on each rooms and asking what they are going to be working on. Rose finally catches up with Ema and Yusuke when she sees that the boxes were going to fall from Yusuke hands. Rose ran to Yusuke holding the boxes making sure they don't fall.

"Rose." Said Yusuke. Rose was shaking her shoulders.

"Rose?" Said Ema. They heard a laugh coming from Rose as she looked them smiling and laughing.

"Baka, are you okay?" Said Rose laughing. Ema and Yusuke couldn't help but to laugh along. They were all laughing making the whole hallway hearing them.

Rose was on her way to the elevator since she had to go home early. The elevator opened to reveal in Azusa.

"Are you going out?" Said Rose.

"Yeah." Said Azusa walking out of the elevator. "They've apparently finished the script for that anime, so I'm going to pick it up."

"I guess it's finally happening." Said Rose. "Work you hardest but please don't work to hard okay?" Azusa touched his head and was groaning in pain. "Are you okay?"

"No, it's nothing." Said Azusa. "I have to give this project my all, for Tsubaki's sake as well."

"Please don't push yourself too much. I wish you luck though." Said Rose.

"Thank you." Said Azusa. Rose was walking in the upstairs living room.

"I'm home." Said Rose.

"Another late day, huh, Roe?" Said Juli.

"Yeah." Said Rose siting on the upstairs couch. "The culture fest is this weekend, and the council isn't making this any easier on me. I had to work extra hard, it feels like this pressure is crushing me."

"You've got entrance exams to study for, too, so don't push too hard." Said Juli. Rose's eyes were starting to go in and out and her eyelids were getting heavy.

"Sorry for making you worried Juli. I'm just really tired." Said Rose falling down on the couch. The last thing she heard before she finally was a sleep was Juli calling her. Rose's eyes were fluttering and what she first saw was Yusuke starring at her. She startled so sit up and Yusuke backed away siting on the ground.

"S-Sorry!" Said Yusuke.

"Yusuke." Said Rose with relief it was just him.

"My bad. I woke you up." Said Yusuke standing up.

"What are you doing?" Said Rose.

"Oh, well, that is..." Said Yusuke. "I thought it'd be bad if you caught a cold, so you know..." Rose looked down to see a blanket that was covering her. Rose looked at Yusuke with a smile.

"Thank you." Said Rose. "But Yusuke, since when...?"

"Huh? J-Just now." Said Yusuke. "Maybe a minute or two ago. I think. Probably."

"He's lying." Said someone. Rose started to shiver from that voice. She looked to see Futo. "You were watching her the whole time."

"Futo..." Said Rose.

"F-Futo!" Said Yusuke. Futo was in front of Yusuke.

"You were watching her for about 10 minutes, weren't you?" Said Futo. Rose's eyes were wide.

"W-Wha?! I wasn't really...!" Said Yusuke.

"But in this case, I think you're the one at fault, Rose-nee-chan." Said Futo.

"Huh?" Said Rose.

"I mean, it's shameless of you to sleep in this open common area." Said Futo. "Could it be that you're doing it on purpose?" Rose stand up.

"Fut-" Said Rose but Futo cut her off.

"Maybe it's no surprise that this idiot tried to take advantage of you." Said Futo.

'Is he trying to get back at me.' Rose thought.

"Don't be ridiculous!" Said Yusuke.

"Oh? What're you taking this so seriously for?" Said Futo. "Could it be that I was actually right?"

"Take back what you just said." Said Yusuke. "Or I'll never forgive you!"

"You won't forgive me?" Said Futo. "Wait, like you have the guts to do anything to me?" Yusuke walked up to Futo and grabbed his collar.

"Why you!" Said Yusuke.

"Both of you...!" Said Rose.

"Talk about noisy." Said Tsubaki walking upstairs. "Do me a favor and quiet down, will you?"

"But Tsuba-nii, this bastard..." Said Yusuke. Rose looked at Tsubaki to see him trying to do anything to not look at her or even take a glance at her.

'Is he trying to avoid me?' Rose thought.

"Yusuke, don't keep making me repeat myself." Said Tsubaki. "I'm tired. If you're going to keep up the racket, take it outside." Yusuke let go Futo collars.

"Darn." Said Futo. Yusuke turned to Rose.

"What Futo said earlier was all a lie, all right? I didn't do anything." Said Yusuke. Rose didn't look at them, she just nodded her head.

"This is the problem with idiots who can't even take a joke." Said Futo. Rose was starting to get pissed.

'Your the one who took the joke way to far.' Rose thought.

"But I guess she trust you more than I would've thought." Said Futo walking away.

"What was that?!" Said Yusuke.

"Don't pay attention to every little thing he says." Said Tsubaki. "Sheesh, how does a twisted guy like him it big on TV? I don't get it at all."

"Do you want to know why?" Said Futo. "It's because I play whatever role they want me to play. I'm committed on a whole other level compared to some flighty voice actor." Rose was now really mad, her hands in a fist.

"Futo!" Said Rose. Everyone was starring at her. "Would you just cut it out?! I thought you were suppose to show me what your true talent is?! But... I still don't see it! All I see is spoiled brat who can't just knock it off with the jokes!" Everyone was surprised to see her so mad. Rose sighed and put her hand on her head. Rose looked around finally realizing Juli was gone she looked next to the couch to see bag that was moving. Rose walked to bag.

"Juli are you in there?" Said Rose.

"Roe! Help!" Said Juli. Rose undid the bag and grabbed onto Juli in her arms. Juli looked up to see Rose was mad. He looked at the three guys hissing at them. Rose walked away from them.

"Rose..." Said Yusuke.

"I'm going to in my room. I'm sorry, but right now." She looked them. They can see she was really mad. "I'm tired and not in great mood. Good night." Rose walked away from them and enter her room.

"Roe are you okay?" Said Juli. Rose put Juli down on the bed and she was in pajamas laying down.

"I don't know why I got so mad." Said Rose. "I guess I was just so tired." Juli walked up to her.

"It's not your fault. I mean soon or later you were going to snap at that pop star." Said Juli. Rose nodded.

The next morning

Rose and Ema were at the table eating breakfast. Rose was in her uniform but this time she let her hair down. She had her hair tie around her wrist and she was not in the mood to put her hair up because she kept thinking of last night.

'Maybe I should have apologize.' Rose thought. 'I mean Fu-chan was only joking.' Rose sighed.

"Rose are you okay? You've been sighing a lot." Said Ema.

"Yeah. I'm fine Onee-chan just had a lot of things stuck in my head." Said Rose. They hear footsteps and sees Azusa walking down stairs.

"Good morning." Said Ema. Rose turned to Azusa.

"Goo-" Rose stopped looking at how pale Azusa was.

"Morning." Said Azusa. "You two are up early."

"Yes, because today is the culture fest." Said Ema.

"You even put her hair down today Rose." Said Azusa.

"Yeah. I thought since this was going to be our last festival I would change it a little." Said Rose. "Yusuke has gone ahead already." Azusa walked to the table. Rose say how pale he was walking close to them. Ema was oblivious to see how pale he was.

"It's rare for Yusuke to get up early." Said Azusa.

"Are you going out, too?" Said Ema.

"I'll get your breakfast ready." Said Rose standing up.
"Oh, no. I don't have an appetite anyway." Said Azusa. Rose walked up to Azusa.

"Are you feeling alright?" Said Rose putting her hand on Azusa's head. Rose's eyes were wide. "You look pale."

"I'm alright. I've been getting bad headaches lately for some reason." Said Azusa.

'Liar.' Rose thought.

"Are you alright?" Said Ema.

"Yeah. But I need-" Said Azusa but was cut off by Rose when she put her hand on forehead again.

"No you are not." Said Rose. "You are running fever. You are even sweating. You need to take the day off."

"Thank you for worrying about me." Said Azusa moving her hand away from his forehead. He was holding on to her wrist. "But there's recording session today, so I can't take the day off." Azusa turned around but felt very dizzy and begin to fall with Rose, who Azusa's hand was holding her wrist. They both fell down on the ground. Rose was practically on top of him.

"Azusa!" Said Rose siting up. "Please hang in there!"

"I'm okay..." Said Azusa.

"Well, that's pretty bold of you." Said someone. They looked to see man with orange hair and a suit. "Jumping Azusa first thing in the morning? You're guite the go getter."

"Wh-Who are you?" Said Ema.

"Oh? You don't recognize me?" Said the man. "Come on, it's me!"

"Hikaru!" Said Rose.

"Yup." Said Hikaru. "I guess this might be the first time you've guys seen me dressed like this." Hikaru was walking toward them.

"Okay I'm shocked but..." Said Rose looking at Azusa. "He has fever and he is sweating a lot. Plus he looks so pale." Hikaru bent down looking at Azusa.

"You're right." Said Hikaru. "Say, how long has Azusa been like this?"

"I'm not so sure. But he need to take a day off." Said Rose. Azusa sit up.

"I can't." Said Azusa. "I can't possibly take time off."

"There's no way you can put on a proper performance in your condition." Said Hikaru. "If it's a project you care about, hat's all the more reason. What do you think you're doing if you go in when you're not at your best?" Rose walked up beside Azusa.

"Plus your not helping Tsubaki if you are like this." Said Rose. "You need to rest Azusa."

"Alright." Said Azusa.

Ema and Rose were walking to school and going to there classroom. Rose runs to class to see Imari carrying something.

"Hurry! Hurry!" Said Imari.

"Sorry." Said Ema.

"We didn't mean to be late." Said Rose. Imari handed Ema and Rose the package that was in her hands.

"Here. It's your guy's costume." Said Imari.

"Huh?" Said Rose. "Why do we need costumes it's a butlers cafe." The class rep opened the door and sees the sign Butler x Maid cafe. "Imari you didn't tell us."

"Sorry. It was decided last night. I had no way to contact you two." Said Imari.

"What?"

"The good looking guys in our class suddenly started talking about having other club commitments and stuff," Said the class-rep. "and we came up short staffing the floor. So we made an emergency change in course." Ema and Rose were looking at the poster.

"D-Does this look right?" Said Yusuke. Ema and Rose looked inside to see Yusuke wearing the butler outfit.

"Hey, that's better than I expected!" Said the class-rep.

"Better than expected? What's that supposed to mean?" Said Yusuke. "You sure it's not weird?"

"No, it looks cool." Said Rose. Yusuke looked at Rose. Rose can see in his eyes that he was think about yesterday. Rose walked up to Yusuke whispering his ear. "Sorry, I was so mad yesterday. It's not your fault. I'm going to apologize to Futo and then Tsubaki okay?" Yusuke nodded and before she knew it Imari was in front of her. Imari was telling her to hurry up and put on the costume.

"You are so bossy." Said Rose. Rose went into the changing room.

"Hey, it's almost time." Said Imari. Ema, Yusuke, Imari, and the Class-rep was waiting for Rose.

"I'm coming." Said Rose. Rose opened the blinds so they can see. "Sorry to keep you waiting." Rose was wearing a maids costumes her hair had two french braids on each side and her was in a pony tail. The french braids swirled around her pony tail.

"Ooh!" Said Imari.

"That's cute!" Said the class-rep.

"You're really cute, Rose." Said Ema.

"You look really good!" Said the class-rep.

"Y-You think so?" Said Rose. The speaker was on telling them the gates will be opened shortly. Rose was walking in the hallway with flyers in her hands.

"Onee-chan is really serious about this festival then I expected it." Said Rose.

"I spy a cute maid." Said someone. Rose had that shiver go down her spine from hearing that person's voice. Rose turned around to see Futo.

"Futo..." Said Rose. Futo was in what looked like a vampire costume. She couldn't help but stare.

"Do I look that incredible, Rose-nee-chan?" Said Futo.

"Um...Futo I..." Said Rose but was cut of by Futo again.

"Did you not recognize me?" Said Futo. "Or was I so breathtaking that you were positively bewitched?"

"No that's not it. It's just..." Said Rose. 'Why can't I say it? Why is my heart beating really fast?' "I just wanted to apologize." Futo walked up to Rose.

"Hmmm..." Said Futo.

"Anyway, why are you wearing that?" Said Rose.

"This is for a photo collection." Said Futo.

"Huh?" Said Rose.

"The theme of my next photo collection that's coming out is my real day-to-day life." Said Futo. "So it's going to include photos from the Culture Fest. Of course, my makeup and wardrobe are done by professionals, though." Futo smiled showing her fangs.

"I can see that. They did a really good job." Said Rose.

"We don't get to do this every day, so come drop by my class. We're doing a house of horrors." Said Futo.

"What? But I have these flyers..." Said Rose looking down at the flyers. Futo felt the gloves over hands. She looked up at Futo. Futo whispered for only her to hear.

"I'm not letting you go." Said Futo.

"What?" Said Rose.

"Just for a little while." Said Futo. "I'm allowed to enjoy the Culture Fest, too, right?"

"Futo..." Said Rose eyes wide. She can see the sadness in his eyes.

"Being a pop star is lonely. You understand that don't you?" Said Futo. Rose's eyes were wide.

'I don't want to be alone anymore!' Rose remembered the crying and screaming from Ema. Rose only nodded her head.

"See, even the Culture Fest turns into work for me." Said Futo. "So you could come for a little while, right, Rose-nee-chan? If you come in I'll forgive you."

"O-Okay." Said Rose blushing.

"Thank you." Said Futo no longer whispering. "Come over here." Futo grabbed her hand and Rose dropped the flyers on to the floor. "Let's enjoy a special stage." Rose was in Futo class, but it was way to dark.

"Isn't it too dark in here?" Said Rose.

"It sets the mood better that way, right?" Said Futo. "Hold on a second." Futo moved somewhere else. Rose heard a click and looked around to find Futo.

"Fu-chan?" Said Rose. 'I really hate the dark.' She was suddenly embraced from behind. "Fu-chan..."

"I've got a cute maid all to myself." Said Futo. Rose was struggling to get out of grasped.

"What are you playing Fu-chan?" Said Rose. She was positive that her heart was beating so loud that he might be able to hear it.

"You can't do this, Rose-nee-chan. You have to be suspicious of men." Said Futo.

"The only one I'm suspicious of right now is you." Said Rose.

"Really?" Said Futo. Futo was close to her ear. "Then why is your heart beating so fast?" Rose's eyes were wide. "Is my acting getting better?"

"Fu-chan... stop..." Said Rose. Rose can feel the glove on her lips. His index fingers was shutting her up.

"This is your fault, Rose-nee-chan." Said Futo. "Flitting about among us brothers... How many will you need dancing to your tune before you're satisfied?"

"What are you talking about?" Said Rose who stop struggling and looked at Futo. His arms was still around her.

"But I'll solve that problem for you." Said Futo. She can feel the fake fangs piercing her neck. "By making you mine." She was dropping to the ground along with Futo.

"Fu-chan... Stop..." Said Rose.

"I'm not going to declare my love for you or anything of the sort." Said Futo. "But it looks like I don't have to wait long for you to fall in love with me. What I like, I take. I don't need your permission." Rose was looking down at the ground.

" Fu-chan..." Said Rose feeling weak.

"Have I made you melt to the point where you can't tell me to stop?" Said Futo. "Or do you not want me to stop?" Rose was pulled to his chest. Rose looked up at Futo. "All my folks are such saps. Being made fools of by someone like you..." Futo was getting close to her almost touching her lips. Rose pushed Futo a little.

"Stop...me and Onee-chan just wants to be family with everyone." Said Rose. Futo put his hand on her cheek.

"Why do you always say 'me and Onee-chan' or 'we'? What about you?" Said Futo. Rose looked up at Futo. "What do you want?" Rose can feel the tears starting to well up in her eyes as she looked at the ground. Futo removed his hand from her cheek.

"I just don't want to make Onee-chan cry again, because of me." Said Rose surprising Futo. Futo put his hand behind her head stroking her hair.

"So that's why you quiet the band." Said Futo. "You felt awful for making your Onee-chan cry like that." Futo pulled her face up. Even though it's dark, he can feel and see the tears streaming down her cheek. Futo kissed her tears away. Rose was blushing and can feel her heart beating even faster. Futo and Rose looked at each other, and before she even knew it. Futo's lips were on hers.

Rose's eyes were wide. Futo was holding her close to her. She remembered Tusbaki, Subaru, and Azusa's faces. 'First it was Tsubaki, Subaru, Azusa and now Fu-chan.' Rose grasped for air.

"Fu-chan..." Said Rose, but in the end she couldn't say anything else since Futo was still kissing her. Futo slipped his tongue into her mouth. He put his hand behind her head to deep the kiss. Rose close her eyes and gripped on his shirt. Rose can feel his tongue everywhere in her mouth. The kiss was so intense it made her tongue hurt. Rose can hear other people voices from the back of her head. 'What do you want? By making you mine. I love you. I'm in the same position as him. I want you by my side...forever.' "Stop!" Rose pushed Futo back. Futo hit the currents showing in some lights. Rose was breathing heavy from the intense kiss. Rose was shaking.

"Ow, that hurt..." Said Futo. "You're so rough."

"Sorry." Said Rose in a weak voice.

"But I'm surprised that you still had the strength left to do this." Said Futo. Futo looked at her to see her still blushing and her breathing heavy.'If she show me that face then I'm satisfied... for now.'

"Please. I just need to think! I'm not sure what I want yet, but I will soon find out!" Said Rose.

"Oh?You've gotten way more interesting than before." Said Futo walking up to her. He touched her cheek. "But that makes the conquest all the more enjoyable. I'll make you mine for real next time." Rose looked up at Futo. "So remember that." Futo kissed her eyelid, and she opened her eyes Futo was gone. She can hear the echo saying 'I forgive you.' Rose whipped off the tears and walked to her class aware of the two hickeys on neck.

"That took you a while." Said Yusuke.

"Rose, come help us out in the shop." Said Ema.

"Huh? Oh sure." Said Rose. Ema and Yusuke were looking at Rose worried.

"Did something happen?" Said Yusuke. Rose touched her neck were the hickeys are.

"Oh no. I'll start pitching in right away." Said Rose.

Rose was heading home a bit late than usual. She put her hair down and got rid of the french braids in her hair.

"I'm home." Said Rose with a blank face.

"Welcome back." Said Tsubaki. Rose looked at the Tsubaki to see him siting on the couch, but she still had on her blank face. Rose walked down to the ground level turning her head to Tsubaki.

"Tsubaki..." Said Rose. "Um...I'm sorry about yesterday."

"It's alright. You were just tired right?" Said Tsubaki. Rose nodded her head but didn't smile. "Didn't you have fun?"

"Oh, no. I wouldn't say that." Said Rose. Tsubaki can see some part of neck, that wasn't covered by hair, to reveal two hickeys. Tsubaki got mad and stand up.

"Hey?" Said Tsubaki.

"Yes?" Said Rose.

"Who gave you that hickey on your neck?" Said Tsubaki. Rose touched her neck and blushed. Rose tried to speak but she didn't what to say. She didn't want Futo and Tsubaki to fight. Tsubaki walked up to her. "Why won't you say anything?" Rose looked at Tsubaki. "Stuff like that's really painful for me, you know. I may have been forceful about it, but I meant what I said then."

"Tsubaki..." Said Rose. Tsubaki cupped her cheeks.

"So I want an answer." Said Rose. Rose was blushing.

"Tsubaki..." Said Rose. Tsubaki was getting close to Rose.

"Don't do things that put her on the spot." Said someone. They turned to see Azusa. They moved away from each other to look at Azusa.

"Azusa." Said Tsubaki. "Why are you butting in?"

"I don't mean to butt in." Said Azusa. "But she's upset, so..."

"That's none of your business!" Said Tsubaki. Rose looked at Azusa to see he still looks quiet pale.

"That's a problem between her and me, right?" Said Tsubaki.

"Tsubaki, listen to me." Said Azusa.

"I don't understand you, Azusa!" Said Tsubaki. "Why do things get like this when it comes to her?! Could it be you like her, too?"

"I'm worried about you, Tsubaki." Said Azusa. Tsubaki was confused. "Because when it comes to her, you're very forceful, and I have no choice but to stop you. You have to think about her feelings or things will go badly..."

"Shut up." Said Tsubaki.
