Chapter Seven: Confessions of the Choir

Tooru's POV

Mikoto had large bags under his eyes before I asked why he hasn't slept all night. He said it was because he had a lot of Homework to do. "I did say you could borrow mine Mikoto, I had written ways to answer them as well" I said.

"I won't learn anything that… wait! You wrote notes on how to do it?" he asked me in confusion. "Yeah, I figured you wouldn't want to copy it since you can't learn that way so I wrote how to do it so you can learn" I said smiling softly.

"Being stubborn is one of Mikoto's qualities so I'm not surprised he didn't say anything about that" I said smiling at Yuujirou. "Summer was fun don't you think Yuujirou?" I asked him smiling. He asked how it was fun when we spent most of the Summer in the Dorms.

"It's better than going home like my sister wants… We had fun at Akira's didn't we?" I asked when I had realized I made a mistake. Mikoto asked why we changed how we call him making me smile.

Yuujirou was the one that spoke however saying a lot happened between the three of us. "The progression was weird wasn't it Yuujirou? Though I am glad" I said. He nodded and I almost laughed when Mikoto asked what happened in an irritable tone.

"Tell you later Mikoto, don't fall asleep" I said as I walked past him into Class. "I hope he'll be okay, not enough sleep lowers your guard" I said making Yuujirou nod.

"He'll get hit on before he crashes" he said and I nodded. I heard a screeching making us look around the Door Frame to see Mikoto surrounded by guys. "You were right at least" I said before we retreated back into the Classroom.

Akira greeted us but didn't say our names. "Morning Akira" we said at the same time making him freeze.

"Aren't you going to call us by our first names Akira?" Yuujirou asked and I nodded. "Very true Akira" I said smiling at him. Personally I don't want to tease him but hey it won't hurt him to stop being so formal.

He stuttered in surprise before he cleared his throat. "Morning, Tooru, Yuujirou" he said and I nodded smiling at him.

"You're a lot easier to talk to than Mikoto" I said before Yuujirou nodded. "If we talked to him like this he'd get angry too easily" Yuujirou said making me smile wider. "I'm glad you don't act like that when we tease you though personally I don't want to" I said shocking him.

He asked if he was being teased before I shook my head. "Yes but only by the fact it's hard for you to say our first names like we do yours" I said before I heard our Titles.

A horde of students were behind us saying we look as beautiful as before they left. "Seems they were wanting to find a girlfriend but didn't or were broken up with" I said hearing Yuujirou 'hmm' in agreement. They asked us for help with tears going down their faces begging on their knees making me smile softly.

Time Skip: Hour Later

I heard a Student Council Announcement calling the Princesses to the Room. "Come on Yuujirou!" I said walking towards the Student Council Room.

He followed me with a sigh before we reached it and went inside. President Arisada said that we'll be discussing the Second Term Schedule making me nod before we were given Papers. They were given to us by Harue and Tadasu while Koshino was holding a Tray of Tea out for us.

When I had heard that the Second Term would be harder it made me smile widely as I looked at the Schedule. He said there were a lot more activities this Term which made me really excited about this one.

"The Choir Concert is where we have to sing right? Is that why we have a problem?" I asked him when I heard that. He said I was right and that the Princesses would be the Opening Act. This surprised the others but I was happy.

"You don't think Male voices would be exciting do you?" he asked but I just shrugged. Yuujirou and Mikoto were the only ones who shook their heads.

"So as Tooru-San said you will be singing and dancing on the Stage before it starts" he said making me smile. "This is going to be fun, right Yuujirou? Mikoto?" I asked them but they didn't seem to like it.

Yuujirou: 'Dancing?!'

Mikoto: 'Huh?!'

Their expressions were funny but I'm guessing Yuujirou can't dance and Mikoto can't sing. We're able to choose our own song and Dance Routine making me smile wider. It just has to be appropriate and warm-up the atmosphere.

If we need help we can go to them, while the Music and MC should take ten minutes. We should also get time to get use to the Stage. "Yuujirou, don't worry about it, you to Mikoto" I said keeping Yuujirou from standing to complain.

"It's only one of the Princesses' jobs, act a little more like Kouno-San you two, okay?" Koshino, Harue, and Tadasu said in order. "You sang Enka for yours right?" I asked Arisada who nodded.

"I was wearing Kimonos so that was an obvious choice" Arisada answered making me nod. I heard Yuujirou say that Mikoto's been quiet this time making me smile sadly at him. "It's okay if you can't sing or dance Mikoto" I said as Yuujirou continued shaking him.

He said the singing is the only problem. I was worried when Arisada asked 'why?' in a stern and threatening tone.

Mikoto basically screamed that he can't sing. I plugged my ears because of this. It was way too exaggerated and the whole School probably heard it to.

Scene Change: Karaoke Club

We were in a Karaoke Booth at a Club in Town to see what song we can use. Yuujirou asked if Mikoto was a terrible singer shocking him.

"We need to pick a song so could we hear how well or how bad your voice is?" I asked making him depressed. He asked why we keep saying mean things making me sigh. "If it's not bad or terrible than there's no reason for you to say you can't sing" I said making him nod.

Hearing a song come on I looked up to see the Student Council Members. "Come one guys, we won't get anything done in here" I said standing up before Koshino said we should stay.

"We have work to do today you guys, we can't listen to any songs right now that Mikoto isn't singing" I said before we left the room. We went to another Karaoke Room where it was finally quiet. "It's quiet now so you can sing Mikoto" I said when I sat down.

"What can you sing Mikoto? If you can't sing anything I can pick for you" I told him before he thought for a long minute. He said it was none slumping his shoulders.

I looked for a song in the book before I showed it to Yuujirou. "It's simple and it's sung by kids, so it's popular" he told me and I nodded. It was Kira Kira Boshi, a Japanese version of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Time Skip: Three Minutes Later

We walked out of the room a little depressed. I was only upset because Mikoto was depressed while Yuujirou was depressed because Mikoto will need extensive training.

We told President Arisada this before he looked through the window into the room we came out of. He said to do our best and I nodded since that's all we can do right now.I sighed as I heard them praise Arisada for his skills at the many things here.

Scene Change: Dorm

Hearing Yuujirou ask what we can do about Mikoto I shook my head since I didn't know. "Get him to practice hard, that's all we can do at present" I answered him.

We both heaved a weary sigh when Yuujirou said that the Concert is only two weeks away which is very true. I heard my name being called by Tsuji so I asked him what I can do for him. "Your little sister just called" he told me making me freeze up.

I hadn't wanted to hear that, it's her fault I have so much going on right now. "I can't talk to her right now, I apologize if she took your attention away from something" I said.

He asked if I wanted to call her back but I shook my head. "No not right now, she's supposed to be in School" I said walking past Yuujirou and him. I wanted to get to the Room and not pay attention to anything.

When I reached the Dorm I sat on Yuujirou's bed looking out the window. I don't want to talk to or see her.

Yuujirou asked if it was okay to not talk to her. I nodded clenching my hand around the Heart Sapphire. I know I'm worrying Yuujirou but I can't help it.

Time Skip: Next Day

Yuujirou and I were walking down the hall of the School hearing the Choir warming up. I heard Natashou say he was looking for us everywhere jolting me from my daze.

He asked what song we were singing but I shook my head. "We don't know yet Natashou-Sensei, whatever you make will be fine though" I said walking past him to go to Class. We asked Akira how to make someone sing better, he thought long about it before he told us.

Time Skip: After Class

I covered my ears when Mikoto asked why he has to wear a Bucket over his head making me sigh. "I honestly don't know since the Theory Akira saw on TV might not even be true" I said worriedly.

Yuujirou says he has no right to complain and I felt bad for him. I especially felt bad for him when Yuujirou started laughing when it was put on. This made Mikoto angry before Yuujirou apologized.

Hearing Natashou I turned around to see that he was finished with the dresses. He had texted me earlier about it and I had given him some things he should try and fix.

"Sorry Natashou-Sensei but we have to practice in private, I'll send you pictures of the dresses later alright?' I asked him as we took the dresses. We left after he said to make it a promise. When we put on the dresses Yuujirou had a Diamond on the Cuffs, an Indian Plum Flower that keeps the jacket in place, and Queen Miranda's hairstyle from Sofia the First.

Mikoto had a Topaz in the Cuffs, a Goldfinch Pin keeping the jacket together, and Princess Vivian's hairstyle from the same show under the Bucket on his head. I had Sapphires in my Cuffs, a purple Carnation keeping my jacket together, and Princess Maya's hairstyle from Sofia the First.

Mikoto said the practice isn't working either making me smile sadly at him. "It's fine Mikoto" I said as I gently took the Bucket off his head. I heard Yuujirou say that Mikoto was being stubborn before I froze.

I had heard Sayaka's voice. She said my name before I sighed going over to her with the others.

She sat down when we came closer before I spoke. "Why are you here Sayaka-Chan?" I asked before she asked what I was wearing. "You know what I'm wearing Sayaka" I said backing up slightly when she stood immediately.

"It's unnatural for someone to wear the other genders clothes" she told me almost sadly like she was denying what I said. Yuujirou asked who she is making me force a smile and I can tell he knows that.

"This is my baby sister" I told him before I turned to Sayaka. "I told Mr. and Mrs. Kouno to keep this School a secret from you" I said not getting a real answer. "You didn't come home at all or returned my calls for three years, I came here to get answers and to bring you home" she told me. I took a few deep breaths at this trying not to remember the day I left.

"I didn't go see you or the Kouno family because I don't want anything to do with you and them" I said shocking her and the others. "I don't want a life without Tooru-Kun in it!" she told me but I shook my head.

"I've only treated you as my younger sister Sayaka and that's all" I told her. "You should do the same or never talk to or come near me again" I said sternly. "Why?! I love you so much.

I've been dreaming of becoming your Wife since we were younger, I thought you felt the same" she told me tears gathering in her eyes as she gripped my dress. "Since you lost your parents mom and dad and I thought it'd be a great idea" she said making me shake my head.

"I have to tell Mr. Kouno where you're at Sayaka-Chan" I said before she gripped my dress tighter. Yuujirou got in the middle of us before he got yelled at by Sayaka for it. Yuujirou said something that was a secret but one he doesn't know is true, that I'm into guys.

I saw Sayaka clench her fists and Mikoto gasp before I tried to speak, to tell Yuujirou to stop. "Tooru-San is supposed to like girls or I can't have him" Sayaka said as Yuujirou came closer to my left shoulder.

I couldn't get him to stop when I felt his breath on my neck when he said it was the truth. His lips pressed lightly against mine when he said he would show her. I stepped back my hair covering my eyes when he was done before Sayaka yelled again.

"Get away from him! He's not into guys because he's straight. Straight guys are supposed to like girls and he's going to be" she yelled surprising them.

I fisted my hands at this before I took a few deep breaths speaking finally. "Will you just be quiet already?! Do you think I chose to like guys or that I wanted to be bullied and ridiculed for it?" I asked hearing someone say my name. "You're supposed to like girls just like girls are supposed to like guys" Sayaka said my vision blurring at that.

"That's not what I asked, you're just like them" I said hearing her huff. She asked who she was like so she'll know if she should be offended or not.

I took out the same Handkerchief I've always used, the same one that was given to me by the one Sayaka hurt. I dabbed my eyes taking more deep breaths to not yell at her. "Ayaka Kouno (1), Akihiro Kouno (2), Chiyoko Kouno (3), Osamu Kouno (4), Yuujirou Shihoudani, Mikoto Yutaka, and the ones who led me to quitting School for fear of it happening again" I said continuing.

"Telling me I have to like girls because I'm a guy and that dressing like a girl is wrong. You don't know why I dress like I do and you have no right to know that either" I told her.

She said it was unnatural and stupid making me look down at the ground again since I had enough courage to even look at them. "I am so close to being done with this. If I'm treated differently or ignored by the few people I think of as friends here I am done" I said knowing my shoulders are shaking.

"The last time you said something like that you left without a word only taking a blood stained Knife" she told me and I nodded. "Father said that if I don't like this School for one reason or another I can leave to Canada where a new Café is opening up.

The days I can decided that is today at eleven when the Plane leaves, next week, or anytime past next week" I said shocking them. "I said it was a good idea because I can finally cut ties with the Kouno Family, get away from the people who will treat me differently, and if I don't like this School" I said. Sayaka latched onto me making me clench my fists as I continued looking down and to my right.

"Go home or I'll leave because you won't" I said before she nodded running off. I was glad that she left but upset because they found out this way.

"I'm going to the Dorm once I finish helping Natashou-Sensei, I apologize for the trouble she caused both of you" I said calmly. Never looking up the whole time I walked past them and down the stairs. 'It was just fine staying here until you called me Sayaka and now this' I mumbled when I reached the bottom.

Third Person POV

Mikoto and Yuujirou were shocked at what Tooru confessed. Yuujirou felt more guilt than anything else however.

He was the one that said it would be strange for a guy to not like breasts when they were searching for female dates. He didn't know that the look Tooru had when Mikoto asked if they don't have girlfriends was for that reason either. Or that what he said about being afraid of being abandoned by his family only hurt him because of this confession.

"Kouno had it tough didn't he, the bullying, being ridiculed, and other stuff" Mikoto said sadly holding the Bucket to his chest. "He still does, I shouldn't have said those things about guys liking girls, it's stereotypical" Yuujirou said shaking his head in frustration.

"He probably thinks of the Princess Job as a good distraction" Mikoto said watching as Tooru walked down the stairs. "Yeah it does, but it helps him spiritually and economically to. There seems to be another reason as well" Yuujirou said remembering what Tooru and Harumi said.

'I won't if you don't later'

'They won't abandon you for who you are Tooru, we didn't and neither did the others'

'So this is what they meant huh?' Yuujirou thought before he asked Mikoto something. "You not being able to sing is less of a burden than Tooru has, is it not?" he asked getting words of agreement.

Time Skip: Choir Concert Tooru's POV (5)

We sang the song and did the dance as we rehearsed when Arisada introduced us. When the song was over the guys were cheering with hearts in their eyes making me smile at them. After the Concert I pretended to act how I was before all of that.

Yuujirou asked Mikoto why his Poker Face was so terrible before I asked why he looked so reluctant. His only answer was that it was embarrassing making me sigh as I pinched my nose in the Hallway we were in.

A/N: Hello, I do finished writing this at 3:02 P.M. on December 10, 2016.

1) Means colorful flower and is Tooru's biological mother.

2) Means large glory and is Tooru's biological father.

3) Means a thousand generations and is Tooru's biological aunt.

4) Means chronicler, disciplined, logical, obtainer, to reign, ruler and is Tooru's biological uncle.

5) It sounds more girly since Tooru sounds sort of like Ariana yet a bit lower in tune.

I do hope you like this chapter and will continue reading.
