~AUTHORS NOTE~
MangaLuv: So, everyone! What's up? Sorry the chapters have been quite slow lately. It's because I haven't been updating as much. The less I update, the slower the chapters. Sorry.
Len: You lazy bum. xD
MangaLuv: SHUT UP! *whaps back of head*
Len: Ow! I was just joking! You're insane!
MangaLuv: No duh. So, everyone, let's start reading.
~oOo~
BOW's POV
We land on the ground with a huge thump. We bounce a few times. Kaen and I started clapping, due to the internal confusion of everyone else on board.
"What?" we ask as we look around at everyone else.
"Why are you clapping?" Luka asks. "Well, in America, when the pilot lands, you clap. It's just like a 'yay' thing." Kaen explains.
There are a bunch of 'Ah's. Smart Kaen, being able to explain stuff. The plane starts to slow down and I look at my nails. "We're in Japan, Kaen." I say. I turn around to see Kaen just smiling. She looks so happy.
Well, I would be too. Actually, I have butterflies in my stomach for some strange reason. Even though I've lived in Japan for a few years.
"Hey, Bow?" Len asks. I look over at Len. "What's up?" I ask him. "Did you ever ask your mom about your dad?" he asks. I facepalm. "Hyperventilating wombats! I completely forgot!" I say in frustration.
"Uhh, hyperventilating wombats?" Len asks. "Uhhh, yeah." I say, looking at the ground.
The plane is put to a halt and I sigh. "So, this is it. Japan. It feels so different. I mean, it's pitch black outside!" Kaen says. "Look! Japanese writing! What's it say, Bow?" I hear Kaen ask. I look over to my right and I see Japanese writing. It says Asahikawa Airport. "Asahikawa Airport." I tell Kaen.
"Wow! That's amazing! It's cool that you can read kanji." Kaen says. I nod. "Thanks. It's pretty strange, being able to go from 'Uhhh, what's that say' to 'Oh, that's Asahikawa Airport' in, like, a day." I say.
"Actually, the entire process took two weeks." says Master as he walks in from the back room. "Oh, hi, Master!" Miku says. Master nods to her and smiles. "Hello, Miku." Miku takes out her headphones. "So, what are we doing?" she asks.
"We plan to go back home, let Kaen unpack, and then we go out for food for a late, uhh, dinner." Master says. I translate for Kaen.
"So, no food yet?" Kaen asks. "Are you that hungry?" I ask her, giggling. Kaen shakes her head, and I shrug. "Okay then. Right home it is. Besides, if we just went out to lunch with no disguise, we would all be screwed, blued, and tattooed." I say. Where did I get that saying from...?
"Oh. Well, that makes sense. If we were to go to a popular restaurant, and people saw Miku walk in the doors, the fans would riot and most possibly go haywire." Kaen says. I nod. "Genius, Sherlock." I say.
"You are now free to walk around. Be ready to get off the plane, fellow divas." says Satou-san over the intercom.
"HEY!" scream Len and Kaito. Everyone laughs, even Len and Kaito themselves. "What did he say?" Kaen asks, and I tell her.
"Oh!" Kaen says, full of new intelligence, and she laughs as well. I nod and look forward. I un-buckle and stand up along with everyone else. "Hey, Mieko? Are you okay?" I ask her as she sways. "Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm okay. Just really tired..." she says, her words slightly slurred. I sigh.
"Hangover?" I ask. Meiko actually nods and scoots past me, her boobs in my face.
"MEIKO! You can wait for me to move, you know!" I say. "'Ceuse me?" Mieko asks. I cover my mouth. When she's drunk, you can insult her as much as you want, but when she's quite fine and dandy, she's kinda scary.
"Better." she says as she gets her suitcase and walks down the aisle towards the exit, but she doesn't get off.
All the teens look at me. "Oooooo." I hear Len say. "Len! Silence! Before I take away all of your bananas!" I threaten.
"NO! Not my BANANAS!" Len says with mock dread. We both laugh. "Come on, let's go." Rin says as she gets out of the seat. "We all have a car ready to go, I'm assuming?" Miku asks. Arrow nods. "I'm assuming so." he says.
I nod and I get out of the aisle. I can't wait to go back to the Vocaloid Mansion. I really can't.
~oOo~
We walk out of the plane. "Hey, there's a car waiting for us!" Arrow exclaims. I nod. "Yeah." I say. "That car is pretty huge." Kaen says. "It is my car." Master says in English as we walk down the stairs from the plane.
"He speaks English?" Kaen whispers in my ear. I shake my head. "Not very well." I whisper back to Kaen. Kaen nods and we get at the bottom of the stairs.
"So, to the Vocaloid Mansion?" Miku asks. Master nods as he hops into the front seat. Everyone else files in, Kaen on my lap because we don't have much room, and we start going back to the Vocaloid Mansion.
~oOo~
We walk into the house after dropping off Teto ((A/N: I completely forgot that Teto went with them on the trip until now, so, err, just pretend that she was off in her own little world and never talked or anything... xD)) and I smile. Home at last.
"I'M HOME!" yells Len. "WELCOME HOME, HONEY!" I say in a low voice and everyone giggles. "That's rude..." Len pouts and he walks forward a little bit.
"Was that making fun of his high voice?" Arrow asks me loudly. Everyone starts to disperse to their rooms to go unpack. Before Master walks downstairs, he looks at me. "Show Kaen the guest room, please?" he asks me.
I nod and look at poor confused Kaen. "To your room!" I say, and Kaen nods. "Yup yup." she says, and I lead her to her room.
~oOo~
ARROW's POV
I watch Bow and Arrow walk to Kaen's new room and I decide it's best to walk upstairs to our room.
I walk up the stairs and I see Rin and Len unpacking. I stop near their door. "Guys happy to be home?" I ask them both. They both look at me, smile, and nod. I nod back and continue to our room.
I fling my suitcase on the bed and I walk over to it. I unzip it and I start unpacking. I place my shirts/top garments in one pile, and shorts/bottom garments in a whole other pile.
I then go over to our dresser and put all of my clothes away.
"So, what are you going to do?" I hear Rin ask from the doorway. I look up. "What do you mean?" I ask her as I start turning around.
"Well, now that Kaen is here..." Rin starts.
"Oh boy, Rin. I don't like her." I say, going back to my suitcase. I don't even touch any of the hygienics before I feel a hand grip my shoulder. "I wasn't even talking about that." Rin says. Her nails are digging into my shoulder.
"Rin. Calm down." I say and I turn to look at her. Rin brings her arms to her side. She looks down. "It's okay." I say, and I give her a huge hug. "Wha-?" she asks, but I shake my head. "Shh." I say, and I smile.
"Are you jealous?" I ask her. I'm expecting a pain in the back. Or a slap in the face. Or a knee to the groin.
Or...nothing?
Except a sigh that escapes from Rin's mouth. "Are you?" I ask, quite surprised. Rin sniffles. "I don't know, Arrow." she says.
I blink, and I bring her even closer to me. "If you are, don't be. I don't like Kaen. She's a good friend, but I don't like her. I like someone else." I say.
Rin moves out of my grip. "What?" she asks, her face stunned. I smile and nod. "I do. Do you want to know who it is?" I ask her. She starts to back up. "Who?" she asks, her voice cracking.
I continue to smile. "You. Duh." I say.
Rin's face pales, then flushes a deep red. "Wha-but-how?" she stammers. I nod. "Well, you're cute. You're adorable. You're nice. You have the perfect attitude for any boy." I explain. "You're lying." Rin says, trying not to smile.
I dash forward and I engulf Rin in another hug. "WAOAH!" she says in my ear, but I don't care. I laugh and I lift her up in the air. I spin her around. "Woaaah! Hahaha!" Rin says, and she starts laughing along with me.
I start to stumble backwards. After about ten seconds, Rin's weight is getting heavy.
"WOAH! MAYDAY!" I yell as we both fall onto my bed.
Rin and I laugh. She looks at me. "What?" I ask her. "You're perfect." she says, and she moves closer.
I smile, and due to my own surprise, I kiss her on the lips.
I move back from her to see her widened eyes. I smile, and laugh. She looks utterly surprised.
"What?" I ask, chuckling.
She just looks at me. Still.
"Rin... You look like you're about to pass out." I tell her. Her face turns dark red, and I can't help but chuckle slightly. "You're adorable." I say, and I turn towards her and I give her a big hug again.
This is how I want to live my life. Always to be with her. Never grow old, and if I did grow old, I want to grow old with Rin. Only Rin.
Rin is the one for me. I know it.
~oOo~
BOW's POV
As I finish showing Kaen her room, I trudge up the stairs. I'm pooped. I'm just gonna fall down these stairs and just land on that nice carpet below me...
Okay. I'm not falling. Fuck that shit. If I'm falling anywhere, it's going to be on my bed.
I walk down the hall, past everyone's room, into my room.
Where Rin and my own fricken brother are hugging. On the bed.
Well, this is awkward.
Wait! Did they just kiss in front of my own two blue eyes? Oh, Holy Mother of Chickens. Okay, that's it. To the Kagamine's room it is, then, if I can't enter my room! Because my room in invaded with hearts! UGH!
~oOo~
Len looks at me as I place my suitcase next to his. "Uhhh... What?" he asks. "My room is invaded with loveyness." I say.
Is loveyness even a word? Well, it is now.
"Oh, uh, okay then." Len says as he goes back to unpacking his suitcase. "You didn't finish yet?" I ask him. "You didn't even start yet." Len says, chuckling.
"Well, Kaen needed to be shown her room!" I say. "Excuses excuses." Len says, smiling, still looking at his suitcase. He continues to unpack. I look into his suitcase. "Excuse me!" he says, closing his suitcase when there is still stuff obviously inside it.
"Why? What's wrong? Do you have funny stuff in there? Hentai? Yaoi? Yuri? Huh?" I ask him, getting to much into his personal space. "Because I said so. Nothing is wrong. That's none of your business. No, no, and no AGAIN!" Len says, starting to push me away.
"Psh! I know about your secret yuri obsession." I say, laughing. "You do?" he asks. I look at him wide-eyed. "YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT, LEN!" I say, starting to laugh.
"Wha- oh, Jesus..." Len says, facepalming.
"THIS IS THE GREATEST DAY EVA!" I say, starting to dance. "I just found out about Len's little obsession~. I just found out about Len's little obsession~." I start singing, and Len grabs me by the shoulders.
"If anyone finds out, you're dead." he tells me right to my face. "You're not even denying it?" I ask him.
Len shrugs. "Well, I suppose that I can tell you things. I'm not really obsessed with it, but I don't, like, hate it either." Len explains to me.
I nod. "I'm just shocked. I didn't think that you would admit to liking something like that." I mumble.
Len shrugs again. He goes back to his suitcase and continues going through it. "Well, can I tell you something? I kinda like yaoi, but not too much of it." I tell him. Len nods.
"That's okay. Everyone has their little things about them." Len tells me, not looking at me. Then I remember a funny story that happened before I became a Vocaloid.
"My friend Evan confessed to liking girl porn."
Len freezes, a shirt hanging from his hand.
"Uh, what?" he asks me, turning to look at me. I start laughing. The look on his face is amazing.
"Well, yeah. He admitted it to me." I tell Len. Len sighs and goes back to taking stuff out of his suitcase. He takes his group of shirts and goes over to his dresser.
He bends down and opens up the dresser and shoves his clothes inside. "Psh. Fuck folding." I tell him, and Len smiles. "Yeah. I'm kinda just tired right now." he says. "I am too. I don't even want to go back out. I wanna eat at home." I say.
Len sucks in his cheeks. "OH! YOU LOOK LIKE A CUTE FISH WHEN YOU DO THAT!" I yell, pointing and laughing. He stands up and faces me.
Len looks down, closes his eyes, and laughs. "Do I?" he asks. I nod. "YEAH! OH, THAT'S SO CUTE!" I yell and I run over to him.
I poke both of his cheeks and I start laughing. "Are you enjoying this?" he asks, sounding fake-annoyed.
"Uh huh!" I say, sounding really happy and hyper and just bouncy in general.
I start giggling. Len's face is fun to poke.
I start poking his forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin over and over again.
"Weeeeee!" I say, laughing.
Len backs up. His face is red from my poking. "Daww. I wasn't done." I say, giggling. I run over, laughing, and I tackle Len, who is also laughing. His eyes are closed; he looks so peaceful.
We fall back onto the floor, me sitting on his lap.
Well, this just turned awkward. "Oh, oh my! I'm so sorry!" I say, and I start to back up off of Len. "It's fine." he says, and he wraps his arms around me, bringing me back close to him. "Oh, okay then." I say, laughing.
He hugs me, his face pressed against my boobs. "Uhh, dude?" I ask. "Shh. I'm listening to your heartbeat." he says. "Excuses excuses." I quote, and Len looks up at me. "I'm serious. You have a heartbeat." Len says, and brings his face back to pressing sideways on my boobs.
"One, no duh I have a heartbeat, and two, this is getting awkward." I tell Len. "Shush. I'm listening." he says. I look forward, with the best poker face ever on, and then I just blink. "Len." I say.
"What?"
"Your face is on my boobs."
"So?"
"I'm a girl."
"Aaand..."
"This feels funny."
"It's not like you have much there, anyway."
I bop him on top of the head with my hand.
"That didn't hurt."
"Len, no one likes you."
"Except about the 50,000,000 fangirls that would do anything for me."
"Err, yeah."
"Are you one of those fangirls?"
"You're funny."
"I'm serious."
I move my torso away from him. Did he really just ask that?
"Uhh, can you repeat the question?"
"Sure. Do you like me? Are you one of my fans?"
I sigh. "I like your singing, yes." I say.
I know that he likes me, but I don't know what to say...
"Yes, but besides my singing, do you like me?"
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"You're really naive."
"Thanks..."
"Besides my singing, do you like me?"
"That doesn't make sense!"
Okay, I totally know what he's talking about. I just wanna see if he'll say it.
"Do you like me for who I am? For my personality? For my body?"
I blink, and I smile. He said it. I scoot closer to him and I lean close into his face. "What do you think?" I ask him.
He looks at me with wide blue eyes. "I think that you do." he says.
I move in even closer. "Well, you'd be right, Len Kagamine." I say, unaware that those words really just left my own mouth.
His breathing gets heavy, and he moves up.
My stomach flutters as his lips meet mine.
I close my eyes. He's so...warm. There really is no other word to describe it.
Len backs up from me and looks at me with wide eyes. "Did...I just do that?" he asks me. I blink at him. "Well, I assume so." I mumble, now shy for some reason.
"Oh. Well, I liked it." he says. My mouth opens slightly. He...just said that he liked kissing me. Oh. My. Goodness.
I go back to sitting up straight. "Wha-?" I start, but then stop myself from talking. He nods slowly, and he grabs my collar and pulls me back towards him again. I laugh as we both knock heads.
Len chuckles and kisses me again on the forehead. "Are you okay?" he asks. I nod and giggle.
Len laughs. "You're cute, you know that?" he asks me. "Really?" I ask. I've never seen myself as cute, nor have I ever even found myself attractive.
Hell! When I found out that it was me that Len liked, my jaw dropped so far, I'm sure Hades saw it!
"Yes, you are." Len says, and his cheek touches mine. His voice is less than a whisper. He is very quiet, and his breath is hot in my ear.
I close my eyes again and I start evenly breathing. Or, at least I'm trying to. I bring my hands up to Len's chest. He slightly gasps.
He moves back his torso slightly, and his breathing has gotten quite heavy. No way...
"Len?"
"Yeah?"
"Uhh, are you...uh...turned on?"
"Possibly."
"Are you?"
"That's my business."
"Well, if I caused it then I-"
"Yeah."
"Ahhh." I conclude.
I look at the clock above Len's bed. "It's getting late. We should get going." I say, and Len wraps his arms around my waist. "You're not leaving yet." he says.
"Don't get any funny ideas..." I start, and Len chuckles. "Why would I?" he asks, coming closer to me.
"Well..." I start, but I don't have time as Len kisses me again. I close my eyes and I kiss him back.
Over, and over, and over again.
"Woah."
We both stop and we both look at the doorway.
I turn every shade of red.
"Uhh, okay. This just got awkward." Arrow continues. His arm is around Rin's shoulders. Rin nods.
"Yeah, I don't think that I have ever seen my brother make out with someone." Rin says. "Well, neither have I." I say.
Arrow snorts. I get up off of Len's legs. "So, uhh, yeah." Len says. He's bright red, too.
I blink slowly. "Sorry..." I mumble. "Don't be." Rin says, laughing. "Love is love, no matter what." she adds.
Arrow nods. "How about we all go downstairs? We'll finish unpacking later." he says. I nod, along with everyone else.
~oOo~
We head downstairs and meet up with everyone. "Okay, let's go. We're going to go to the nearby restaurant." Luka says. I instantly know what restaurant we're going to. The really nice one nearest to our house. I've been there once before we left for America. The food is amazing, the desserts even better, and the people there are very warm and friendly.
"What is the name of the restaurant?" Kaen asks me. "It's called Bōdō." I say, and Kaen nods. "Sounds interesting. Let's go eat."
~oOo~
We get to the restaurant and we enter in. We get a bunch of welcomes from various staff members. We take off our shoes. ((A/N: As that's what you do when you enter a restaurant in Japan.)) I watch Miku straighten out her wig, which is long black hair.
Actually, everyone's wig is black (mine and Arrow's, too) besides Kaen's, who's not wearing one.
I pat Len's wig. "Are you ready to eat?" I ask him. He looks at me and nods. He smiles, and I resist the urge to just give him a huge hug.
We are led to our table and we all slide in. "This is a big crowd you got here." says the waitress. We all nod. "Drinks?" she asks.
We go around, naming what drink we want. I ask for water.
The waitress goes back to the kitchen to get what we asked for.
I blink and look at Len. Even with black hair, he's still really cute. His iris starts to drift towards my direction. "You okay?" he asks me, still looking slightly downwards. I nod and look back towards the table. He caught me in the act of stairing. Now I feel like a moron.
I blink. Then, I feel my right knee squeezed. "Eepp!" I say, trying not to squeal. But everyone in the table looks at me anyway. "Are you okay?" Luka asks me. I nod. "Are you sure?" Kaito asks. I nod, and I hear Len's slight chuckling.
I resist the urge to whack him upside the head, but it doesn't matter. The waitress just came back with drinks. "Food?" she asks. We all go around saying the food we want. I ask for Okayu. ((A/N: A type of rice porridge.))
The waitress goes back to the kitchen and I sigh and look down. Everyone is making small chatter.
A waiter is running past with a bunch of trays. He snags on Miku's wig. "Oh, mam! I'm so sor...ry?" he asks, as Miku's wig is pulled right off, revealing her long, easily noticeable, easily recognizable hair. "Fuck." I mutter under my breath.
"Oh boy." Kaen says. I blink. We're screwed.
"It's Hatsune Miku!" someone yells. "Quick! We have to get out of here!" Master yells. I don't need to translate for Kaen. She knows that when Master yells, you run for your fricken life.
We bolt up out of the chairs and we start running for the exit. We reach the exit, quickly pick up our shoes as we run past, and we bolt outta there.
"Where do we go?" Len yells as we start running from the fan riot. "Not home! The Utau house! It's hard to get there. They live close and near a cliff. The hill that they live on is quite steep." says Master, and I quickly translate for Kaen.
Kaen nods. "How far is it?" Kaen asks.
I ask Master. "Not even half a mile." Master responds, and I tell Kaen. Kaen nods.
~oOo~
As we reach near the bottom of a cliff, I'm panting, and so is everyone else. We take the time to put on our shoes.
I look up the hill. Or, more like a fricken mountain!
"That's one steep hill..." I pant. Kaen nods. "How are we getting up that thing?" she asks me.
"We're walking." Arrow replies.
"We run." Master says in English, and he starts running up the cliff. We all just look at him like he's nuts. We start to follow him, my legs already aching.
As we start running up this hill, which I swear to the gods is slightly close to being a 90 degree angle, I hear the fans screaming.
I stop running and I look back. I close my eyes and try to hear what they're saying.
"I want an autograph!"
"Let me have a picture!"
"I just wanna look at you!"
"RAPE ME!"
I look forward, open my eyes, and I see Len running down towards me. "Come on!" he says in a frantic.
He grabs my hand and starts dragging me up the hill.
~oOo~
We run up faster and the crowd keeps on chasing.
"They have the balls to run up this thing?" Arrow asks.
"Well, when the fans find someone..." Kaen mutters.
I'm sounding worse then sprinting a whole lap around a track. My breath is getting short. I stop running and I fall down to the ground. I rip off my wig, it's no use anyway, and I look over at the crowd.
Idea!
"HEY! FETCH!" I yell and I throw the wig at the crowd. The all scramble to get it. This is kinda fun. "Not a bad idea..." Meiko mumbles. "Then do it! Distractions!" I tell her.
Meiko shrugs and takes off her wig as well. "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" she yells and throws her wig into the huge crowd as well.
Kaito and Luka follow suit.
"Hey, I bet ya all the girls will start fighting each other if you throw your wig into the crowd." I say, looking at Len. He smiles and nods.
"HEY! EVERYONE!" he yells to get everyone's attention.
Some people look his way, some don't.
He rips off his wig, along with Rin and Arrow who do the same thing, and they both throw their wigs at the crowd. A bunch of teen girls scream. Len, Rin, and everyone else starts laughing. "Ahhh, fans." Len says, and we start running up the hill again.
~oOo~
We reach the top of the hill and sit down. "That was...a smart idea." Arrow pants, patting my shoulder. I don't even respond, I just nod.
"Let's...go inside." Len says, pointing at the door. I groan. "I'm not mooooovvvvving." I say. "Fine. Stay there...and get eaten by buggies." Len says as he stands up and goes to knock on the door.
"Noooo! Don't leeeeeaaaave meeee!" I say, holding out my hand. I sigh as everyone else just leaves me behind.
"Okay...that's cool too..." I say, and I stand up and I walk over to the door.
Len knocks on the door, and after 30 seconds, the door opens to Teto, who gives us a warm smile, and then she really looks at us. Her face changes to concern. "What's wrong?" she asks in Japanese, inviting us in.
"The fans. The doomed fans. I'm gonna rip them apart." Master says. "Well, that's nice, Mr. Master, but what do the fans...oh. Did they see you guys?" Teto asks as we sit down on the blue sofas.
I translate for Kaen, who's so confused. "Kaen, you need to learn Japanese pronto." I tell her. She nods. "Uh huh. Maybe I'll start tomorrow." she says.
"They saw us, all right. They saw all of us." Kaito says.
"They did? Oh boy. Does that mean that...we're revealed?" Teto asks.
I see Momo Momone walk in. "Oh dear. What's wrong?" she asks (also in Japanese) as she rushes over to us. "Those stupid fans." Rin starts, and then tells the whole story over again.
"Well, then, you guys are going to have to find a way to get home then, huh?" Momo asks. We all nod. "Alright. Well, we know a shortcut through the nearby woods. We'll travel through there. But rest up first. The trip can be tiring." Teto says.
I tell this all to Kaen, who nods. "Good, I wanna rest. I can't move another muscle till I'm, like, 21." she says.
I nod and I rest my head on her shoulder, a thing I remember doing before I was a Vocaloid.
"Uhhhh..." Kaen says. I guess it still creeps her out. Oh well, I'm tired.
"Creeping you out?" I ask her. I feel Kaen nod. "To bad. I'm dying." I tell her.
Kaen moves back and I fall sideways. "Wah!" I say, stopping myself before I land.
I sit back up. I look over at Master and Teto talking. I ignore it all. I start closing my eyes. "Wake up." I hear Len say, and my eyes open. I fight the urge to close them again.
"Don't fall asleep just yet." I hear Teto tell me. I look at her. "You'll need to be escorted back to your house. We'll drive through the crowd instead. We aren't the only people that live on this cliff. If other people see you in the woods..." she says to everyone.
I close my eyes again anyway. I hear someone get off the other sofa and then a whole lot of weight on my legs. I look up and I see Len sitting on my lap. I look over at Kaen, who's trying not to smile.
She looks over at me and smiles and gives me a small thumbs up. I stick my tongue out at her and I look at Len. Or, mostly, his back. "Get offa me." I say.
"You'll stay awake if I stay on your legs." he says. I blink. "Get offa me!" I repeat, and then I shove him off my legs. "Fine. But we'll leave you here if you fall asleep." Len warns.
"We won't leave her." Master says to Len.
I stand up and sigh. "Maybe standing will keep me awake." I mumble.
~oOo~
"It's really smushed in here." I mutter as I'm pushed up against Len's back. "I know." says Len. I hear a bunch of other 'yeahs.'
If you're wondering, we're (as in, the Kagamines, Shimizus, and the single Hatsune) all in the trunk of a car.
This brings me back to the good ol' days of being in a duffel bag. "Déjà vu', huh, Arrow?" I ask.
"Yeah. Hey! Watch your elbow, Miku!" I hear Arrow scold Miku. "I'm sorry! It's really squished in here!" she apologizes. "It's okay..." says Arrow.
"Len! You don't place your hand there!" I yell at him as his hand starts to creep up my torso.
"I'm sorry! I turned around, and then you just fell against me!" he explains. "Uh huh! Sure!" I say, and I grimace as I fall forward. "WOAH!" I say as I land face-first into Arrow's chest. "THIS JUST GOT AWKWARD!" Arrow yells.
"Hey! Get off of him!" Rin yells as my face is pushed off him and onto Miku's thigh. "Gagh! Sorry, Miku!" I say to Miku. "Oh my. This is strange..." she says. I feel hands wrap around my stomach and I'm pulled backwards.
"Woah!" I say and I land against something soft. "Who did I just land on?" I ask. "That's me." says Len. "Sorry." I say as I hear a loud "WOAH!" from Rin.
"WHY COULDN'T KAEN BE WITH US IN THE TRUNK!" I scream. "Because she looks normal, and she's not popular for her hair, that's why." Arrow answers. "It's okay, Rin." Arrow adds. "BUT WHAT ABOUT LUKA AND MEIKO AND THE ICE-CREAM MAN!" I yell.
"They were too big. Teto and Momo had to go-woah-look around for wigs." Len answers as he holds me up so I don't fall.
"Fifty dollars that Meiko's driving." I say, and everyone chuckles.
"If she is, I'm going to kill someone for letting her drive." Rin mutters to herself. I lie up against Len's chest. "I have to do this so that I don't fall." I tell him, and Len nods. I feel his chin on my forehead.
"Are we almost home?" Miku asks. "Here. Let's look out of the window and see. Oops. There's NO WINDOW!" Arrow yells.
Miku whimpers and Arrow sighs.
"Don't yell at Miku! She's fragile!" I yell.
Silence. "WOAH!" we all say as we are jolted sideways. We hit the back of the trunk. "Ouch." I say, along with everyone else.
"Well, that hurt." Miku says. "Are we going to live?" I ask to everyone in the trunk. "If Meiko's driving, we have about a 30 percent chance of living." Len answers. I sigh. "We're screwed. We probably aren't going to live this, then." I say.
"Well, good to know that you're very bright, Miss. Sunshine." says Arrow. "You're making me depressed." Rin says.
"WELL, YOU'VE BOTH MADE ME DEPRESSED TONS OF TIMES, YOU EVILS! SO THIS IS MY REVENGE!" I yell.
"That's my ear that you're yelling into." Len says. "Sorry." I say and I blink three times.
"Hey, guys, are we going to get out of here anytime soon?" I hear Arrow ask. "You just said that there was no window, how can we tell where we are?" I ask.
"Stop reasoning!" Arrow says. "What? You just asked a question, so I responded!" I say.
"I'm scared..." Miku says. "It's okay, Miku. We'll get out of here." Len says. "Being the hero, huh?" I tease, and I feel a hand slide down my back. I jolt forward the more it slides down.
"Bow, are you okay?" I hear Rin ask. "Yeah..." I say through gritted teeth. I hear Len chuckle. "Silence, shota..." I mumble. "Heard that." Len says. I grimace and then I close my eyes. I move back to be close to Len.
Right now, he's the thing that I'm using so I don't slide around.
His arms wrap around me. We hit a bump, and we're jolted up into the air. "Woah!" we all say as we land on the bottom of the trunk.
"BITCH THAT HURT!" Arrow yells. I snort. "Oh, shut up Bow." Arrow says. He knows me too well.
"Hold on." Len says as he attempts to sit up (as much as he can, anyway) and he moves around, but I don't know what he's doing. It's really dark in this trunk, and the fact that it's dark and I'm lying down on the ground of the trunk is scaring me.
I feel him move his foot under my head. "What are you doing?" I ask. "Hold on." Len says as his foot is removed from my head.
He grabs under my chin. "Sit up and lean against me." Len says. I scoot back and I sit up (hell, I don't know if it's even considered sitting up) and I place my head on his chest. "Better." Len says.
"BETTER?" I hear Rin screech. "Rin, calm down!" Arrow says. "Awww." says Miku. "Miku..." I start.
"Sorry, couldn't help myself." Miku says, the hint of a smile in those words, and I sigh.
"I hope we're almost home..." Rin says. "Me too." Arrow says.
Silence is with us again.
We bump around in the trunk. "Ow." I hear Len mumble. "Are you okay?" I ask. "Yeah... You're elbow is in a bad place..." he says.
"Where is it? Oh...!" I say. "Yeah..." Len mutters and I move my elbow away.
"Yeah, Bow's always a pain in the genitals." Arrow says, and I slap his shin. "Shut up." I say, and Arrow just laughs. I sigh and I close my eyes.
There is more silence, and then the car is put to a screeching halt. I cover my ears.
"Are we home?" I ask with a bunch of hope.
"I hope to the gods we are." Len says.
I hear people get out of the car. "Okay, good. We're home." Miku says.
The trunk opens to show Luka, who bends down and smirks at us. "Well, you kids have fun?" she says, looking kinda evil. "Actually, it wasn't all that bad." I say, and I smirk back. Luka raises her eyebrows. "Really now?" she asks, looking at how I am on Len.
I nod. "Totally." I say. Everyone's trying to not laugh. I don't know why. What's so funny? Am I making this sound perverted? Well, whatever. It's still fun.
"Well, uhh, then, you guys can get out of the trunk now." Luka says. Everyone else that rode in the front (a.k.a not the trunk) come into view. "It's nice in here." I say, curling up with Len. I hear him sigh, and everyone else laugh.
"Well, then, have fun." Luka says as I see her start to close the trunk. "NO!" Rin screams and she lunges forward to get out. I laugh, along with everyone else. "Then move." Meiko says. We all file out of the trunk.
"Good. Now, get some sleep." Master says. My stomach rumbles. "Fuck it. No dinner tonight. I'm sleeping. Night." I say and I enter the house followed by everyone else. I start walking up the stairs. I walk into the Kagamine's room, as my suitcase is still in there, and I take it. "What are you doing?" Len asks as the lights turn on.
"Getting my suitcase." I turn and say as Rin walks in behind him.
Len walks forward and flops onto the bed. "Hey, Bow, let's get some sleep." I see Arrow from the doorway. I nod and I walk out into the hallway. I follow Arrow to our bedroom. "Night." he says, and I nod.
~oOo~
I wake up in the middle of the night. I blink and sigh. I look at the time. It's 3 in the morning here. Oh goodie. Now I'm never going to get any sleep.
I sit up. "Hey, Arrow, ya awake?" I ask. He doesn't respond. "Guess not." I say, and I get up and I walk out into the hallway.
I close the door behind me and I start walking down the hall. I stop by the Kagamine's door. Do I walk in? No. I shouldn't. I should not walk in. They are sleeping all quiet like. I should not open up that door.
Well, too late. I've already opened the door very slowly and I walk forward and I look at both of them, facing away from each other. I walk over near Len and I bend down and stare at his face.
He's sleeping very quietly. I seem like a stalker for this reason. I'm just stairing at the kid.
Then, he opens his eyes. I jolt back. "Woah!" I say and I slightly fall back.
"What are you doing?" he whispers. I scratch the back of my head. "Nothing..." I say, and I stand up.
He looks up at me and smiles. "Are you not able to sleep?" he asks. I nod. "Time difference..." I mumble.
Len nods and sits up. "Hey, Rin-Rin, ya awake?" he asks as he looks towards Rin.
There is no response. Len sighs. "She always did like sleeping." he chuckles.
He looks at me. "What's up?" he asks. I shrug. "I had nothing to do. Arrow's asleep so I can't torture him." I say. Len nods.
"Having a sibling is fun, ain't it?" he asks, looking at Rin. I shrug. "When they're not being total jack-butts, then yeah." I say. Len chuckles again. "Yeah." he mumbles.
We just stay there in silence. I look over at the open door and I quickly sit down again. A door just opened.
"Who is it?" I whisper. "Why are you so scared? It's no one bad." Len says, and I quickly cover his mouth with my hands. "You're gonna jinx it, dude!" I yell-whisper in his face.
Len's eyes widen.
"Uhh, is everything okay?" I hear Miku from the doorway. I look over. I sigh.
"Yeah. Sorry..." I mumble, standing up. "Okay. I was just checking. What were you guys doing?" Miku asks, smirking.
"Nothing funky... Rin's over there anyway." I say to Miku, gesturing over to the sleeping Rin.
"That doesn't stop anyone." Miku says as she starts leaving, smiling. I start following her. "Excuse me!" I say as I follow Miku down the stairs.
"Well, it's true. I know you both like each other. We all do! Just go out with each other!" Miku says to me, smiling.
Sure, Len and I kissed, but does that mean that we should go out?
"Uhh...is that, like, a group decision?" I ask Miku, slightly laughing.
"Yeah! Even Luka, Meiko, and Kaito know! Just go out! It would be amazing if you both went. Of course, all of the LenXRin fans would be sad..." Miku says.
"But that doesn't matter, as-" Miku starts, and then stops.
"What?" I ask. "What were you about to say?"
Miku slightly laughs. "Well, ya see? Since you came about, RinXArrow has become quite popular, and so has LenXBow."
My face becomes bright red. I hope Miku doesn't see that in the dark.
"You're joking, right?" I ask. "Yeah. It's washed LenXMiku off the charts, thank the gods." Miku says.
((A/N: Sorry if you adore Len and Miku, but I'm not a fan. I don't like the boy to be younger in the relationship. That's just me.))
"You never liked that pairing?" I ask, shocked. Hey, she would be popular with the most popular boy in Vocaloid! I never liked the pairing myself. The girl being older than the boy is like a no-no to me.
"No. I never did. I'm older then Len; and Len doesn't like the pairing either. But!" Miku starts.
"But!" Miku continues, "I think that Len likes LenXBow a whole lot, right?" she asks, nudging me.
"I don't know..." I say, and I shrug.
"Well, he does. You should see what he hides under his bed. It's an odd collection of sorts. The bottom of the bed is where Len and Rin store all of their things that they like to keep hidden. It's kinda useless as we all know that it's under there. You should check it out." Miku says, and she walks to the kitchen.
I stand there and I don't move. What should I do...? Should I go out with Len?
