I am so very sorry for not being able to post for almost 2 months now, I feel like such a bad person, I haven't had internet since I moved. I hope you can all forgive me. The new chapter will come out in a few days after I finish reviewing it. Thank you all for being patient.


Chapter 11

I was woken up by the sound of the bell signaling that second period had just finished and I was pulled over to Hotaru and Ruka-pyon's seat by Anna.

"Speak now before I shoot someone Anna." Stated Hotaru.

"Well told me to inform you guys what was said when you left and I know that you guys were told something else for only your ears even though Nonoko, Permy and I already know what that is and by the way we're excited, hehe." Whispered Anna. "So if you don't have a partner for the dance you can still go but it won't be fun but of course we are all going together so that 'not fun' doesn't include us. And ya that's about it, you've heard about the themes and the band so count yourselves as informed. Oh and I'm sorry it's a band that the six of you don't like." Added Anna with a wink as she walked off.

I went back to my seat, knowing Misaki-sensei would be in soon, when I saw a piece of paper on my desk. When I opened it I saw:

So you don't like the band No Offence..

I looked at Hyuuga oddly then answered

What's it to you?

Just find it weird.

Why?

Well it's the most popular band now a days. Even I think they're good.

'Heee? So Hyuuga likes my music huh? Interesting. Well either way I have to lie saying I don't like them.' I thought to myself.

And why do I care if you think their music is good, it's up to me to decide what kind of music I listen to is it not?

Wow who knew you could be moody. Why don't you like their music? I could have sworn I hear Skillet coming from your room every morning and that's definitely close to their style.

Well excuse me for liking Christian music.

You're avoiding the question Polka.

I crumpled the paper to show him that I didn't care that I was avoiding the question. I got up and walked out of class.

*Time skip*

I reached my room and walked over to my guitar placed it in its case pulled it over my shoulder and left towards the Sakura tree.

'I can finally be in peace.' I looked up to make sure he wasn't in the tree took out my guitar and started to play one of the cover's No Offence sings and just in case I made a mental note to change the tone of my singing voice like I did when I sang 'Wide Open Spaces'.

(Hush- Automatic Love Letter)

[Verse 1]

This is as quiet as it gets
Hush down now, go to sleep.
We were once perfect me and you
We'll never live this through

[Chorus]
Hu-hu-hu-hush
You color my eyes red
Your love 'not' life is dead
This letters written it's self inside-out again
When rivers turn to roads
And lovers become trends
Hu-hu-hush, this is where it ends.

[Verse 2]
This is the calming before the storm
This absolution is always incomplete
It's always bitter sweet

[Chorus]
Hu-hu-hu-hush
You color my eyes red
Your love 'not' life is dead
This letters written it's self inside-out again
When rivers turn to roads
And lovers become trends
Hu-hu-hush, this is where it ends.

[Verse 3]
I won't make a sound so you don't wake
You don't wake, you don't wake, you don't wake

[Chorus]
Hush
You color my eyes red
Your love 'not' life is dead
This letters written it's self inside-out again
When rivers turn to roads
And lovers become trends
Hu-hu-hush, this is where it ends.

You color my eyes red
Your love 'not' life is dead
This letters written it's self inside-out again
When rivers turn to roads
And lovers become trends
Hu-hu-hush, this is where it ends.

This is where it ends.

"Thought you didn't like their music."

I jumped not knowing anyone was around 'So it's lunch already huh? That means I got to go.' and without looking at the owner of the voice I answered "Here's a fun fact, it's not originally sung by No Offence, the original is sung by ALL or better known as Automatic Love Letter. So get your head out of the clouds and stop thinking everybody likes the same music as you." I started to strum a new tune, which came to me as I spoke to Hyuuga, when I felt him sit next to me.

"You know, since technically we're engaged-"

"Don't even. I'm breaking it off the first chance I get and if you want to know why then wait for tomorrow morning." I interrupted him. I started to put my guitar back in its case and walk when I heard him say.

"Actually I was going to break it off too."

I stopped dead in my tracks and turned and said "Go on."

"You'll know tomorrow morning." With that said he jumped into the tree and fell asleep.

I turned and headed to band practice while thinking of a new song.

*Time skip*

I got to band practice early, which isn't new, but normally Hotaru is here before me and today..nothing its 5 minutes pass the time we said we'd start and I'm still the only one here. Great just great.

(Hotaru's POV)

"Anna-chan, Nonoko-chan, why did you call us here? You know Imai, Koko, Kitsu, Yuu and I have to get to band practice." Implied Bunny Boy.

"Since I already know what you want to ask I'll tell you, I'm not going to tell you anything about Mikan's past until Mikan herself wants to tell you. That said no bringing up the topic for the time being. Got it?" I pointedly looked at Anna and Nonoko for the last part.

"Hai." Came their unhappy reply.

"Good. Now you four get to the studio ASAP. I have to find someone therefore I will be later than we already are. Now GO!"

And with that I left, while the rest of them pondered on where I would go that wasn't to see my best-friend or to do what I love most, after money and inventing that is.

*Time Skip*

(Mikan's POV)

I heard the door creak open slowly and a thought came to me 'Since I ignore them when I'm mad I should play mean little trick on them this should be fun'

"Hey Sakura-san sorry we're late it's just we had to take care of something before so, sorry." Explained Ruka.

"Well Nogi, since you said sorry I guess I'm inclined to forgive however I'm not in the mood therefore I do not accept your apology. Now everyone get to work at memorizing the new song I wrote because tomorrow I will have another song ready to be learned. Yome 1 and 2 don't just stand there, what I just said went to you as well."I said hoarsely. I swear the sheer horror on their faces was worth the effort of being mean." Yuu, you're fine because you're hardly ever late but I would appreciate if you helped these slackers while I go practice a solo. Do you mind?" I asked sweetly.

"N-no of course not Mikan-chan."

"Thank you so much Yuu." I said as I walked to my sound proof booth.

I took one last glance at the rest of the guys and as I entered my booth I started to laugh.

*Time skip*

When I walked out 5 minutes later I stood face to face with my best friend.

"Hotaruuuuuu!" I shouted as I jumped at her for a hug.

"Mikan." She said as she side stepped my attack. "Mikan, about tomorrow mornings meeting."

I froze. "How do you know about that?" I asked in a quivering voice. I could feel all of our band members eyes on us.

"Let's take a walk." Was all Hotaru said. And a walk we took.
