Author's Note

Hey guys, I'm so sorry I haven't been updating. For some reason, I can't upload sometimes so I have to use the library computer. I've been thinking of continuing this story to go for at least 10,000-15,000 but we'll see how it goes. Oh I just realized that I used Akita Neru twice. Once in the beginning and now in the last chapter. Sorry about any confusion but Neru was never a student. She was a character Kaito picked up. But still, I will keep Neru as the 2nd love interest from here on out (please don't kill me). Thanks for all your reviews and views. Hope you keep on reading.

Taking the Spot

Miku's P.O.V.

(Point of View)

I ran away as fast as I could away from the sight of Len and Neru.

They were so close to each other… were they…

I shook my head violently not wanting to think about it any longer. I reached the girl's bathroom. By that time, tears walloped down my eyes. I washed my face with water and took a deep breath

"I… can't lose…" I said with a determined look

I dried my face and walked outside. I accidentally bumped into Len.

"Ouch…" I said quietly

I looked up to see Len and Neru with him

"Len…"

Len looked at me with his kind eyes.

"Neru, why don't you go back to the classroom? I have to talk with Miku here…" Len asked Neru

Neru just nodded and quickly went to the classroom. Len's eyes returned to me

"Let's go Miku."

"Go? Where?" I asked

"To my office…"

Len took me to a room at the end of the hallway on the 2nd floor. There was a shelf on the left side of the room. A study desk in front of the windows while a couch was on the right side.

Len sat in his chair while I sat on the couch.

"What's wrong Miku?" he asked

"What do you mean Len?" I asked back

Len stood up and sat down next to me

"Your eyes are a bit red… I thought you were crying…"

He knows me so well…

I looked down embarrassed and not wanting to show Len

"Len… do you love Neru?" I asked trying to change the subject. But I accidentally got it to the worst possible one.

Len threw his head back and laughed

"I like her but I don't love her Miku. Besides, I barely know her"

My heart leaped. I still had a chance with him. I looked up at Len. I went over to where he was sitting. I sat down on his lap and grabbed his shirt

"Then do you love me?" I asked

Len looked away and blushed

"Miku, I do love you. You're like a sister to me…"

Just like a sister…

I looked down and gave a quick smile

"Thanks Len. That's what I wanted to hear"

Len looks at me and ruffled my hair. He looked at the time on the clock

"I guess we should get back to class."

"Yeah…"

We returned to the classroom. Inside, all the students were just studying by themselves. Len whistles amazed

"Wow, you guys never studied when I asked you to."

Gakupo stood up and winked at Neru who just glared at Gakupo

"Cause Neru asked us to."

"So you would do anything Neru asked you to do?" asked Len

"Yup!" chorused all the guys

"Then why are all the girls studying? Will you do anything for Neru?"

This time, Luka stood up to answer

"Because Neru promised a date with yo-"

Neru went quickly over to Luka and covered her mouth

"It's nothing" said Neru nervously.

Len shrugged

"Why don't we all keep studying like this?"

I quietly took my seat. Luka leaned over

"So what happened?" asked Luka curiously

"I got rejected…" I said quietly

Luka gave a small gasp of surprise

"You asked Len out?" she whispered amazed out of her mind

"Sort of… but I'm not giving up."

Luka gave me a little fist pump

"Good Luck Miku."

I had to smile at Luka's positive attitude

"Thanks Luka."

Gakupo leaned over from the side

"What are you guys talking about?"

"Stay out of our business Gakupo." Said Luka grumpily

"Awww. But I wanna join in too…"

"Too bad" teased Luka

Gakupo stuck his tongue at Luka and in reply, Luka stuck her tongue back at him. I laughed slightly

"You two seem close" I observed

Luka and Gakupo quickly turned to me

"With Him?"

"With Her?"

"Who else?" I asked laughing

Len threw some pieces of chalk at us. I don't know if he heard what we were talking about but the chalk hit us all on the forehead.

"His aim is amazing." Said Luka rubbing her forehead in pain

"MASTER! TEACH ME HOW TO THROW CHALK LIKE THAT!" yelled Gakupo

Len looked at us and sighed

"Guys, please quietly study instead of talking to each other… And Gakupo.."

"Yes!" asked Gakupo excitedly

"If you wanna throw chalk like me, watch a lot of Naruto."

Gakupo sank down in his seat

"N-Naruto? Is the answer that simple?" Gakupo asked himself

Luka patted Gakupo on the back

"Cheer up Gakupo. You can do it!"

Gakupo looked up at Luka and smiled

"Thanks Luka."

I looked at Luka and Gakupo together. They seemed so nice with each other. I looked over to Len and Neru. Neru was staring at Len

Neru, thanks for keeping the seat next to Len warm for me but its time I take the spot.
