Shintaro slowly opened his eyes.

What happened last night?

He tried getting up but fell right back down.

Shintaro tried opening his eyes more to see that he was sleeping upside down on the couch.

"Eh?"

He quickly got up and examined the room.

The television was right in front of him and it seemed like he was playing Street Fighters 2 since the game was on pause and there was a controller by him. On the other side of the couch there was Hibiya who looked like he would fall off of the couch any moment.

On the floor Momo and Hiyori were asleep with a couple of snacks and drinks spilled onto the floor.

I-If I remember correctly we had that sleepover then- uh- I think I kept winning and Hibiya wanted a rematch over and over again till all of us fell asleep...? Jeez, everyone's a mess though...

Shintaro got up and walked toward the kitchen to see his mom asleep on the dining table with a bunch of bags. He went to check what was in the bags and there were a bunch of snacks and drinks in the bags. He took out a pack of Coca-Cola and walked back to the living room, just in case they woke up and wanted some too.

"Hn? Morning already?" Momo got up rubbing her eyes.

"Auntie shut up...!" Hibiya said half awake,

"You should shut up too...!" Hiyori got up and fell onto Momo's lap.

"I got some soda if you guys want," Shintaro said while opening the pack and got out 4 cans.

"Thanks onii-chan..." Momo held her hand out while Shintaro putted a can onto it and gave one for Hibiya and Hiyori too.

All four of them opened it only to have the soda explode and get it all over themselves.

"Freakin' wake up calls..." they all murmured as they were all wide awake now.

"Shintaro?" Ayano opened the door that was forgotten to be locked by Mrs. Kisaragi.

The four looked grumpily at her with Cola all over themselves.

"Waah! U-Um! I'll go get some towels!" Ayano came in and left the door open and ran upstairs to get some towels.

"Onee-chan, if their mom didn't lock the door then you should have locked it!" Seto yelled while coming in with Kido and Kano and locking the door.

"Oh! Soda!" Kano ran over and got some for Seto and Kido too.

The three opened it and even more Cola exploded.

"I'm back- WAAH!" Ayano saw her adopted siblings covered in Cola too when she came down.


"Aah, thanks Ayano!" Momo said while wiping herself with a towel.

"Good thing we didn't drink it before brushing our teeth!" Hiyori said while Shintaro, who already got cleaned, cleaned her hair.

"Hibiya, do you need help cleaning up?" Ayano bent down while Hibiya had trouble cleaning himself.

"Sure..." Ayano took the towel and started wiping him.

"Why did you guys even come hear?" Shintaro asked.

"I thought that we could all go to the mall together..." Ayano said, "You know, since we don't have school today."

"Sure, when we're all cleaned..." Shintaro noticed something.

"Hiyori, what happened to your other earring?"

"Eh?!" Hiyori felt her ear to find no earring, "Oh no!"

She went over to the couch and looked through it and looked beneath the snacks to find no earring.

"No way..." Hiyori sniffled.

"W-Wait, are you crying?!" Shintaro panicked.

"I'm not crying!" Hiyori glared at him while keeping the tears in.

"Oi..." Shintaro sweated and murmured, "Are you trying to be a tsundere?"


"Let's split into groups," Shintaro sighed.

"Eh? Why?!" Ayano asked.

"Well, the girls want to do clothes and the guys would rather do something else, right?"

Everyone was quiet.

"Actually that's pretty true..." Hibiya murmured while everyone else agreed.

"Then let's meet at the food court later," Shintaro walked away while Seto, Kano, and Hibiya followed him.

Kido watched as the boys went into a game store. She could feel people staring at her and started to sweat nervously. Kido slowly turned around to see Ayano, Momo, and Hiyori staring at her.

"U-Um, is something wrong?"

...

"What kind of dress do you think Kido would look best in?" Ayano asked.

"Maybe a red one?" Hiyori asked.

"Or maybe a frilly one with tons of ribbons!" Momo said.

"Eh?" Kido started blinking nervously as the three grabbed her and ran into some random shop.


"Jeez!" Shintaro grumbled as he rested his chin on his hand while the others were eating some fries.

"Why is it taking the girl's so long?!" Shintaro took a sip of his soda.

"But aren't they shopping for clothes?" Seto asked.

...

"We might have to wait here till the mall closes..." all of them sweated.

"Hibiya?! Is that you?!"

They looked over to a woman and a man who both had black hair.

"Hiyori's mom and dad?!" Hibiya got up from his seat and ran to them.

"Aah! We were so worried about you! Where's Hiyori?!"

"Papa? Mama?!" Hiyori ran from the girls and into her parents arms.

"Hiyori!" her parents yelled while hugging her tight.

"Come on, let's go home now, we need to go back to our hometown tomorrow..."

"Okay!" Hiyori held her mom's hand while Hibiya held her dad's hand.

"Hiyori, wait!" Shintaro ran over to Hiyori and bent down while digging through his pockets. "Here!"

He got out a piece of cardboard that had earrings on them. The earrings looked exactly like Hiyori's except there was another flower dangling below that was smaller. For the pink to black one a blue flower and the black to pink one a red flower.

"Waah!" Hiyroi took the earrings, "Thank you, Shintaro!"

She smiled, "I knew that you were more useful than Hibiya!"

"Hey!"

With all of the members that have now met Shintaro, they have a stronger bond with him now, Ayano smiled, but it was a sad smile, everyone will have a stronger bond and help each other up after I die in the future...


Ack! Sorry guys but I can't take anymore ideas for the story since I have decided when to do which idea on which chapter.

... =w='

That idea and chapter part sounded a lot better in my head, when I reread it I'm even getting confused OTL

Anyways, thank you callmethewordsmith for reminding me about Hibiya and Hiyori (I forgot about them, I feel like a failure T.T ). I came up with an idea for the 2 which was big enough to make 2 chapters and now I'm ready to go with my ideas for the rest of the story now.
