The sun was shining. It was hot outside as well which means one thing. Summer has arrived! The entire school is at Shining-san's private island and it was amazing! My eyes looked around and it was sparkling. This is now reminding me why we came here in the first place.
"Nozomi-chan nearly spoiled what we have planned for you guys," Ringo-sensei pouted and I looked down, feeling a bit guilty since my friends were here. "But tomorrow, we're going to Shining-san's private island!"
I blinked a couple of times, but I smiled at the thought of going to an island.
"This is so that you guys can think of a composer and duet partner for the graduation audition!"
"Duet partner?" I tilted my head. "Does that mean…we have to sing with someone?" I asked and Ringo-sensei nodded.
"Yes indeed Hanayo-chan! So I hope you choose wisely and remember, no love is allowed!"
"Amazing! So this is where the students of Saotome Academy go to for a day!"
"H-Hanayo, calm down." Tomo-chan told me and I ignored her. "But I agree with you. It is impressive."
"It is!"
"By the way," Tomo-chan said then looked at me. "I've decided who my partner will be."
I looked at her and smiled. "Good job, Tomo-chan!" I complimented her then asked her.
"Remember my partner back in April?" She asked and I nodded. "Well, he's my partner."
"Oh," I said then looked at the sky. "I should think about who my partner should be…"
"You should hurry up, or else someone might grab that person before you do."
I nodded. I grabbed the handle of my suitcase and looked at Tomo-chan.
"Well, should we look for our cabin?" I asked her and she nodded.
We found our cabin shortly afterwards and we changed into our swimsuits. I was wearing the swimsuit I wore when I went to Maki-chan's beach homes the first time we had an overnight trip.
I walked out onto the balcony and smiled. "Wow! We have a view of the ocean!"
"It's beautiful." Tomo-chan agreed. "Well, I'm gonna go and practice."
"Oh, okay."
"Wish me luck, Hanayo!" Tomo-chan said and I nodded. "Well, I'll see you soon!"
I watched Tomo-chan leave and I heard music coming from outside. Curious on that, I walked outside and I followed to where the music is coming from.
Summer wing
Fly Summer wing
I heard voices nearby and I smiled when I saw the others. I ran towards them and they saw me and they smiled as well.
"Hanayo-chan/Kayo-chin/Hanayo!" They all said and we started singing and dancing to Natsuiro Egao 1,2,Jump! while smiling.

After the song ended, the girls all decided to play in the water and they're having fun with each other.
While the girls were having fun, Otoya looked at the sky and thought who should be his partner for. Although, he kept thinking of Hanayo and how they practiced the first song together.
"I wonder if I should ask Hanayo…" Otoya muttered to himself. His cheeks turned red then he shook his head. "I'll ask her later today!"
Elsewhere, Natsuki was sunbathing while Syo was sitting next to him. Syo's mind kept thinking about that "lesson" with Eli and Nozomi singing Garasu no Hanazono which made him start thinking about his partner for the graduation audition. Although, Syo started thinking about how amazing it'll be if he partnered up with Hanayo.
Syo decided to keep his thoughts aside and looked at Natsuki with a serious look on his face.
"Who are you going to choose as your partner?"
"Someone who's cute and is good at singing," Natsuki replied then looked at Syo. "What about you? Did you decide?"
"N-No… Not yet…" Syo blushed then averted his eyes away.
"Well, I've got an idea on who mine is going to be."
"By the way," Syo looked at Natsuki again and asked, "Don't you think Koizumi's a little suspicious?"
Natsuki looked at Syo and shook his head. "Why do you ask that?"
"Isn't it a little strange that Koizumi knows Tojo and Ayase when they came to the school and that they know Koizumi's name?"
"They're probably friends with each other since childhood, like we are." Natsuki said then looked at the sky. "And we should just enjoy our time here."
Syo just stared at Natsuki; and his thoughts reverted back to if he and Hanayo were partners for the graduation audition.
After we finished playing in the water, we decided to have watermelon that Nozomi-chan cut. It was good and it was starting to feel a little like summer.
Although my mind was still curious on why the others are here, so I asked, "Why are you guys here anyways?"
"Saotome-san invited us," Honoka-chan replied then smiled. "He said that if we're together, it might help you think of a partner for the graduation audition."
"Well that and," Maki-chan nodded then said, "My parents are out of the town until the beginning of the new term, so Papa decided to ask Saotome-san to let me stay in one of the dorm rooms until then since Papa knows Saotome-san."
"That's awfully nice of him." I said and smiled as I munched on my slice of watermelon.
We were chatting away while eating watermelon and my mind suddenly went blank. Talking like this is reminding me so much about when we were all still a school idol group. I gazed at my slice for a while and I looked down.
"Kayo-chin," I snapped back into reality then looked at Rin-chan. "Are you okay?"
I nodded and looked at my watermelon slice. "I just wish that we can all perform together again…"
"It might happen one day, Hanayo." Eli-chan said and smiled at me.
"That's it!" Honoka-chan sprang out of her chair and grinned. "Let's perform a song again!"
"Honoka-chan, do you think it's alright?" Kotori-chan asked and Honoka-chan nodded.
"But, we already sang a song…" Umi-chan reminded Honoka-chan and she shook her head.
"I mean as a comeback concert!"
"I like that idea!" Rin-chan agreed and smiled.
"Then why don't we…" Honoka-chan said then started whispering in our ears.
My eyes widen and I gasped. I stepped back and looked at Honoka-chan.
"H-Honoka-chan…!"
"It's alright, Hanayo-chan." She said and smiled at me. "Just wait for a couple of days and when they gather in the Room of Dreams, we'll tell them everything and you can come in saying the good news."
I was a little hesitate about Honoka-chan's plan. Although, thinking about it, I nodded and I smiled back.
"You can do it Kayo-chin!" Rin-chan encouraged me.
"Just remember," Nico-chan said then placed her hands on my shoulders. "You have to ask and tell us soon after! That way we can hunt down those guys and bring them to the Room of Dreams."
"I-I know!"
"Well, why don't we practice." Eli-chan suggested. "Even though it's been a long time since we've done this, we should have a quick start just in case."
"Okay!" We all said in agreement then started practice.
We all had dinner and we went our separate ways. I was heading back to my cabin while looking at the picture that we all took. I giggled a little because Nico-chan's head was cut off a bit. It was an amazing day so far.
That plan though… I started thinking about Honoka-chan's plan and looked down. I wonder if Saotome-san will me do something like that…
I sighed and soon after, I heard a noise. I looked up and I smiled when I saw a familiar looking cat.
"Kuppuru!" I ran over to him, picked him up and started petting him. "What are you doing here? Did someone bring you here?"
I kept asking him questions, but he jumped out of my arms and started running off.
"Wait, Kuppuru!" I yelled out then started following him.
As I ran after him, he lead me to a forest and I looked around and kept seeing green fireflies. Fireflies aren't green… What am I getting myself into? I thought to myself and I ended up in an ancient looking part of the forest.
"E-Eh?" I blinked a few times. "Wh-Where am I at?!"
"A place where my people once lived."
I flinched then turned around and saw a foreign looking guy behind. His emerald eyes looked very familiar and my eyes widen when I realized that they're the same as Kuppuru's.
"K-Kuppuru?"
He smiled then walked towards me. He lifted my hand and...he kissed it?! I my cheeks turned red faster than the speed of light and he looked at me.
"This is the first time we've met like this, Hanayo."
H-How does he know my name…? I asked myself then looked at him. "W-Who are you?"
"My name is Cecil Aijima." He introduced himself to me. "And my dear Hanayo," He said then walked towards the stoned people. "I've been watching you."
He's been...watching me?! I thought and my face started burning.
"Since the day you found me and took care of me, I've taken a liking to you," Cecil-kun said then looked at me. "You and your friends," He continued then smiled. "Are my new muse."
"New muse?" I blinked and looked at him.
He nodded and held my hand. "My princess," Cecil-kun said then soon we started floating.
I looked down and my face turned red. I pulled my skirt down to prevent it from flying around. Cecil-kun looked at me and I smiled.
Crossing over the moonlit sea,
Now in these hands, love is awakening
I sing of eternity in the voice of the sea's roar
I've always been searching for you
I embrace this fated meeting
I gather love songs from around this world
I'll inform that heart and that dream
I was born only for you
To be your "guardian"
What seemed like a dream turned into reality when I opened my eyes and saw Cecil-kun in front of me.
"Cecil-kun," I spoke up. "W-Who are you exactly?"
He didn't respond. He just smiled and walked over to a tree that had flowers on the leafs.
"Hanayo," Cecil-kun spoke my name and plucked a flower off one of the leafs and I held out my hand. He put the flower on the palm of my hand and looked at me. "Be sure your path that'll lead to your happiness."
"W-What do you mean by that?" I asked him, sounding very confused since this is something that Nozomi-chan would say.
Cecil-kun chuckled lightly and kissed my forehead. I blinked a couple of times and my vision became hazy. I closed my eyes and my body hit the ground.
Soon, I hear the sound of the waves crashing into each other and I woke up. I was laying on the sand on the beach and I became confused.
I opened my hand and the flower was in my hand. My face turned red and I started sweating.
"T-That...wasn't...a...dream?!"
Before I could scream, I saw a tall figure close by. I quickly stood and started walking towards the figure carefully.
"I-Is anyone there?" I spoke up and the figure turned its head. "U-Um…!" I flinched a little then I saw that it's Ichinose-san. "Hmm? Ichinose-san, what are you doing here?"
"I could ask the same thing with you, Koizumi." He said to me coldly and I looked down.
"True…"
"I was…" Ichinose-san started saying then looked at the sky. "Going to practice."
I smiled and walked closer to him. "If you're going to do that, feel free to do so even though I'm here."
"But you might say something." He said to me and I shook my head.
"Even though you're really HAYATO, I think that you're voice sounds pure and is filled with happiness and heart." I said and looked at the ocean.
"You really are Hanayo Koizumi from μ's." Ichinose-san said and I looked at him. "I saw the other members of μ's earlier today and I saw you among them."
My eyes widen and I placed my pointer finger over my lip and I shushed him.
"Shhh!"
Ichinose-san stared at me and nodded.
"Hanayo-chan!" I heard Honoka-chan's voice behind and I turned around and saw the rest of μ's behind me. "C'mon, let's go practice!"
"Okay!" I nodded then looked at Ichinose-san. "Well, I hope you can get used to A Class. And I hope that one day, we can work together after we debut." I said then ran towards my friends.
Tokiya watched the timid girl run towards her friends and looked at the ocean.
"μ's…" He muttered the school idol group name. "I wonder what'll happen to them now…" Tokiya stared at the water. "Koizumi…"
