Sorry for the horrible wait. That must've been the longest delay ever for a chapter. I have a perfectly good explanation and you will find it at the very end of this page. But first, please read this chapter and enjoy yourselves :)... or not.

Enjoy! :D


"Alright class, may I have your attention please." Said Fukawa-sensei. Everyone turned their attention to him. "As you all know graduation is tomorrow. I hope all of you have picked-up your graduation gowns and caps. You must be here at 4:30pm sharp so we can get everything ready. Also, I cannot stress this enough .. Don't Be Late! Understand?"

"Hai sensei!" The class said.

"Alright class dismissed. See you all tomorrow." Fukawa-senseii said. He then left the class room as the students all stood up and began packing all their belongings and went home.

~Yukimura Residence~

The family had just finished eating dinner and the twins' went upstairs to Seiichi's room. Angel was rummaging through his stuff looking for … nothing. She had no clue what she was looking for; she just rummaged through her brother's belongings which was normal. Seiichi just watched her. She then sat down beside him on his bed.

"I'm booooored onii-chan!" Angel whined as she plopped down on the bed.

"Well what do you want to do?" Seiichi asked.

"I don't know!"

"What do you mean you 'Don't know'?"

"I mean I don't know. That's the point on being bored onii-chan. You don't know what to do."

"You know, that could also be applied too.." He was interrupted by his sister.

"I get it onii-chan. No need to explain." Putting her hand up to his face.

He laughed as his sister put her hand down. "Alrighty then. How about we play Tekken5?" He challenged her.

"You're on!" She accepted.

So Seiichi turned the TV and PS3 on while Angel got the controllers. She handed one to her brother and began to play the game.

They didn't finish playing till 2:30am… more like they fell asleep during their 25th round.

~The Next Day – Graduation~

"Haaah" Angel sighed for the 15th time that afternoon. She checked her watch and it was 5pm. All the graduating students were sitting on stage and Marui hadn't arrived yet. It was driving her insane. Out of all things to be late to, he had to be late for their graduation. Those whose last names started from A-G had already passed.

"Calm down sis. I'm sure that there's a perfectly good explanation as to why he's late." Seiichi comforted her. She nodded.

And then she saw something red and hairy sitting down. It was Marui. Her phone then vibrated in her hands and she opened it.

"Sooooooooo sorry I'm super late babe! I had to wash my hair a gazillion times. Do you know how hard it was for to get syrup and bird poo out of my hair?! Uuugh! If it weren't for my brothers and their damn prank, we wouldn't have been stuck in traffic and I'd be here on time." Marui texted.

Seiichi gave her an 'I-told you-so' look. She rolled her eyes.

"Yeah yeah yeah, I know! You were right and I was wrong. Happy?" Angell admitted.

"Yes, very." He smiled

She texted Marui back saying "I understand. That's a pretty bad grad prank they pulled on you. You're just lucky that bird poo doesn't smell. Hehe "

Then the rest of the time, they texted each other back and forth until their names were called to receive their diplomas. They stopped texting when Yanagi, their valedictorian, was called to the front to make a speech.

After the ceremony was over, everyone went to the lobby and began to take pictures with friends and families or chitchat with one another. All of the tennis team's fangirls and fanboys surrounded them in one corner of the lobby and began asking for autographs and pictures like they were celeberties instead of middle school students graduating. Oh well, what could they do? They just did as they were asked and made their fans happy. After the fans dispersed, Kirihara ran up to them with not a frown, but a smile on his face.

"Congratulations on your graduation sempai-tachi!" He said happily.

"Arigatou Aka-chan." Angel said.

"So what now?" Jackal asked.

"Really Jackal? You're seriously asking that?" Niou said slightly annoyed.

"What?" Jackal Said.

"Give him a break Niou-kun. After all, we did just graduate." Said Yanagi.

"Whatever." Was his response.

"Well then .. Let's go PAAAARTYYY!" Marui yelled excitedly.

They all went to Chisasu restaurant with their families and mingled and laughed the night away. Not to mention eat a lot of luxurious food courtesy of Marui. You'd think that he'd used all the money he earns on sweets, please do not be fooled by his sweet tooth. He is actually a very mature boy who can be very childish at times, especially when he's with his friends.

Seiichi lightly tapped his glass to grab everyone's attention and then raised it. "A toast to finishing middle school and may we continue our hard work in high school. And to our parents, thank you for all your love and support and please continue to give us that. Cheers!"

"Cheers!" Everyone said.

And with that, they continued to party the night away till 2am.


Hope you guys enjoy it!

My most deep deep deepest apologies for this very super duper months delayed chapter. I know I said I'd give you guys the next chapter after my trip but ugh. To explain why it took so long, I had to rewrite the chapter for I did not save the original and lost it. Usually microsoft word saves it automatically for me, but that time it didn't. I had already forgotten what I had written then so I had to think of new ideas and put in a few of the ideas I had in the original that I still remembered together to create this. T.T I was so sad when I lost it. It was also very difficult for me to rewrite this chapter.

For those of you who thought I actually left and gave up on this story, I never left nor did I give up on it. It just took me a really long time, months actually, to think of new ideas for this rewritten chapter. Also because it was summer vacation, my family and I went on many trips which lead to no time to write the chapter but, enough, and maybe too much, time to think of new ideas. I apologize, that it seemed like I did leave and gave up on it. But don't worry, I will continue writing and making more chapters for this story.

Thank you for your Support!3
