Oh, man. I'm in trouble by this chapter. Yuni and Rage... nevermind! Just read the chapter. Please review me to let me now how I'm doing!


At home, PiX and I were browsing my closet to find some good dance clothes. We found a purple top with a white collar, black shorts, black high thigh socks, and purple dance heels. I looked into a mirror, and I saw how great I looked. I put my mom's necklace back on, and we waited for Rage.

"Don't worry, big sister," PiX said. "PiX's got your back. She'll keep Akira and Sa-Ja busy."

"Thank you, PiX." I said. "Hey, PiX?"

"Yes?"

"There's... a song that mom wanted to teach you... but, she told me to wait until you were older. But, I think you're old enough now."

She jumped up and down. "Yay! Yay! Yay!"

I knealed down to her level. "Are you ready? Listen carefully..." I started singing on line at a time. PiX followed along with me. When we went over the lines, we went into normal tempo and sang the whole song. She did really good. "Very good, PiX."

"PiX did it, Yuni." she said. PiX's tiny arms wrapped around me. "Did she do good?"

"You did really well, PiX. But, you can't tell anyone."

She nodded. "PiX promises."

We released each other as we heard a knock on my balcony door. I went to answer it, and it was Rage. He really did look like a cool dancer. He wore a blue, sleeveless vest with a grey sleevess shirt underneath, blue light jeans that showed part of his legs, and white shoes. His spikey hair showed as he took his hood. Dare I say it... he looked very handsome.

"Hey, Rage." I greeted. "Wow, you look great."

"So do you, Yuni," he said. "you ready to go?"

I looked over at the vines, then at Rage. "I think so."

"Yuni forgot her purse." PiX said.

"Thanks, PiX." I said and took my white velvet purse.

"Okay, let on here and-"

There was a knock on my bedroom door. "Yuni, PiX!"

I froze. "Oh, no! Akira!" I whispered.

"Just get down, and leave it to PiX!" she whispered. She answered the door, and all he could see was her face. "Don't come in, Akira. Yuni's... sick."

"Again? But I thought-"

"We're playing a game, and PiX is a doctor..."

While PiX was stalling Akira, Rage was helping me climb down. A vine snapped, and Rage caught me before I could fall. My hand was starting to fall from Rage's hand.

"Rage," I whispered. "I'm slipping!"

"Just hold on to me!" he whispered back. He let me climb onto his back, let go of the vines, and landed on the ground smoothly. "There we go."

I got off of his back. "Thanks, Rage."

"No problem," he said. "let's go before we get caught."

We held hands as we made a sweet escape from the mansion's sight. I made a quick look at the sky as we walked down the street. A few stars appeared and the moon shone a full light. My mom must've been one of the stars in heaven by now. As we took a bus to the beach, there were party lights and I saw Emi and Gus as DJs. As we got off, Gus was playing some DDR music.

"Hey, Yuni. Hey, Rage." Emi said. "Didja come here to dance?"

Rage nodded. "Yup."

"Cool. Come on over."

Emi escorted us over. People were gathering to dance, there were great snacks, refreshments, and great music. There I was with everyone, with Rage, having fun. As I danced by Rage's side, people watched how we were dancing to our hearts' content. When Rage and I got done, people applaud.

"Okay, guys," Gus said over the microphone. "Emi and I are gonna call out names. Let's hope you're all good singers."

Emi pulled out two papers from a jar. "We got... Yuni and Rage."

I squeaked. "What! No way!"

"Aw, come on, Yuni." Rage said. "You've got the perfect voice for the song."

We went up the stage, stood behind the microphones, and Wine Red's new remix played. I new the lyrics for the song. I still like songs like that one. When Rage came in on the song, he also new the lyrics to it. I didn't know that he can sing really good. When the song ended, the crowd cheered.

"Give it up for Yuni and Rage!" Gus said. The crowd just got louder.

When things settled down, Gus started playing Utada Hikaru's song Simple and Clean. This was one of my favorite love songs. Most couples were dancing with their partners.

"Would you like to dance one more time?" Rage asked.

I smiled. "I'd love to."

Rage held out his hand for mine. I looked at it, then took it. He took us where we had enough space, then my arms wrapped around his shoulders, and his arms wrapped around my waist. I was just enjoying the moment with Rage. When the song was half over, he pulled me into a tight hug. Later that night, I received a call from Akira. PiX accidently told him where I was and who I was with. Luckily, Sa-Ja manage to keep him calm and convinced him to give me and Rage a night alone until midnight. When the song ended while the party was going on, he took me to the shore where the water was making the sound of waves. We sat there watching the ocean.

"This night is almost like magic." I said with a happy emotion.

He sighed sweetly while looking at me. "Yeah."

I looked up at him. "Thank you for bringing me here, Rage."

"You're welcome."

I looked over at the ocean's water and how the water was reflecting the moon and stars. "It's so beautiful how the water's reflecting everything." Now, I knew Rage wasn't looking at the water. "I'm seeing someone much more beautiful than the moon's reflection," he said. "and she's sitting right next to me."

I blushed as I looked to the ground. "Oh, stop that..." I giggled. "I bet there's other girls that are prettier than me..."

He did a fake gasp. "Yuni, don't you go around telling yourself that..." There was a short pause. "Say whatever you want. It's not going to change the fact that you're really beautiful."

I smiled a little bit. "... thank you, Rage."

He wrapped an arm around my waist, pulling me closer to his side. "Can you believe we've been bestfriends for six years? It's amazing."

Suddenly... I wanted to tell him how I really felt about him. "Hey, Rage. Can I tell you something?"

"Of course, Yune. What is it?"

"Um... about being just friends......"

"Yes?"

I sighed. "I was wondering if we can be..."

"Yes?"

"Can we be more than... friends?"

He gave me a questioned look. "Whadda ya mean more than just friends? Are you saying that you... love me?"

I blushed. "... yes." There was an awkward silence. "If not then, will we still be friends?"

He sighed, then curved his lips into a smile. "Yuni... I feel the same way about you... and I wanna try to be a good boyfriend to you."

My heart started to beat excitingly. "R-really?"

"Will you give me a chance?"

I hugged him. "Yes, Rage. I also promise to be the best girlfriend you've ever had." My head rested on his shoulder. Before it reached midnight, Rage walked me home to my front porch. He held my hand. When we reached to the first step, he stopped and wouldn't let go of my hand.

I smiled. "Goodnight, Rage."

"Sleep well, Yuni."

When I tried to turn around, his arms wrapped around my waist, and pulled me close as I gasped. I now realized that I was being kissed on the lips. My eyes closed as I let him kiss me. I was so excited to have my very first kiss. He pulled away in seven seconds, then we smiled at each other. He then released me so I can sleep. Before I went inside, I waved goodbye at him when he was at the gate. I then heard Akira inside moaning loudly in fury. I take it he just saw us kissing. I went inside, saw Akira walking around with a little bit of anger. Sa-Ja and I hugged with excitement. I wonder what dad would've said. I went upstairs to call him and tell him what happened that night.

He picked up his phone at the first ring. "Hello?"

"Hi, Daddy."

"Hey, Yuni." he said. Dad was really happy to hear my voice. "How are you, sweetheart?"

"I'm very happy, Dad." I told him why I was very happy. I told him about Rage and I singing, our slow dance, how we told each other about how we felt about each other, and that Rage kissed me.

"Oh, my goodness..." he groaned. "Just how your mom and I... nevermind. Does he really make you happy?"

"Yes, Dad. He really does. Can I please be with him?"

"Well... your mother would want you to be happy... so, alright."

I squealed. "I love you, Dad."

He sighed. "I love you, too, Yuni. Just promise me you'll be safe."

"I promise..."

Later night in bed, I dreamt about Rage and I on our second date. I really must be falling in love for the first time.
