Chapter 13- Epilogue

Miku and Len walked back into the foyer, where Ruko was talking to her parents.

"We didn't know you were this serious about being a girl," Ou said. "But I need you to be a man so you can run the..." Ou lowered the volume of his voice to a whisper. "...syndicate."

"Can't I still run it even if I'm a girl?" Ruko asked.

"I... I guess she could, Ou," Joou replied. "I think she'll make a great leader."

Ruko smiled, ecstatic that her mother used a female pronoun when talking about her. She gave her parents a big hug.

"So," Len whispered to Miku. "Are we boyfriend and girlfriend now?" Miku nodded. Len grinned and gave Miku a peck on the cheek.

Ritsu blushed in embarrassment as his parents walked up to him. He put on a nervous smile, hoping that his parents would accept him.

"That was a really good performance," Kanonu said. "I didn't know you liked cross dressing."

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner," Ritsu apologised. Ritsu's father Zeni gave Ritsu a small hug.

"We're so proud of you," he said.

"Welcome to the club, Iroha, Taya, Mizki and Yuu!" Miku greeted the new members cheerfully. "I'm so glad you decided to join the club. Introduce yourselves."

"Glad to be here," Iroha replied. "Hi everyone! I'm Iroha and I joined this club 'cause it looks fun."

Mizki smirked as she talked. "I'm Mizki and I'm sick of having to look dainty all the time. I want to look like a strong man sometimes."

Yuu couched before talking. "I'm Yuu and I'm new to this school, so my parents want me to join a club and make some new friends. I've always been a touch feminine, so this club seems like the right one for me."

"Taya, aren't you going to introduce yourself?" Miki asked. Taya blushed and began fiddling with his fingers.

"Do I have to?"

"Yes you do. Come on, you can do it!"

"Okay. Well, um, I'm Taya and I guess I joined the club because I like feminine things. I want to look like a pretty lady."

Miku clapped. "Good job, new members! Speaking in public's hard. So, did any of you bring some cute clothes with you?"

Iroha and Taya took out some clothes that they brought with them while Yuu and Mizki shook their heads.

"Go to the toilets and get changed," Kaede ordered.

"Which ones?" Yuu asked. Len laughed, remembering that he asked a similar question when he first joined the club.

Len took a copy of the video of his performance with him home. When he went home, he took it out and forced Hidari and Migi to sit down and watch the DVD.
Hidari's eyes widened when she saw her son in a dress while Migi released an amused chuckle.

"I thought I told you not to be in that concert!" Hidari yelled.

Len pointed to the television. "Just watch. I'm sorry I disobeyed you, but I still want to be a part of this club. Please let me stay in the Trap Club."

Hidari sighed. "I'm not going to be able to change your mind, am I?" Len shook his head. "Fine. I guess there's nothing I can do to stop you from wearing women's clothes. Have fun."

"He actually looks pretty good up there," Migi remarked. "I didn't know you could sing, Len." Len beamed and gave his parents one big hug each.

Yami showed the video to his parent as well, causing them to have concerned looks on their faces.

"I'm not going to change, Mama and Papa," Yami said. "I like being in the Trap Club and I plan on staying there for the rest of my school days."

"Why?" Yami no Oto asked.

"I think you're just confused," Ryouji said to Yami. "You should have grown out of this already."

"Look," Yami no Oto added. "I know you have two dads, but we're not together together. You don't have to dress like this to feel normal."

"I know I'm not normal," Yami replied. "I don't care anymore. I just want to be me. Do you understand?" Yami's parents nodded. Yami gave them a kiss on the cheek. "Good. Oh, and I met someone. His name's Saru."

Ryouji's jaw dropped and Yami no Oto put his hand on his face in exasperation.

"How do I look?" Miku asked. She was wearing a teal t-shirt that complimented her hair and eyes perfectly, and a pair of men's jeans.

"You look great," Len said before kissing Miku on the lips.

"Yeah, you look really cute!" Iroha added.

"Thanks," Miku said happily. "I bought these clothes during the weekend. Yuu, you look great too. Let's put some makeup on you."

"Are we going to put on another concert?" Iroha asked.

Miku stopped to think. "I don't know. Concerts are kind of expensive, but the one we put on did help us gain members, so maybe another concert would be useful."

"Well get someone else to make the costumes," Yami said. "I don't want to pull any more all-nighters."

"Please?" Miku asked.

"You can't control me just by giving me puppy dog eyes."

"Please?" The rest of the club asked in unison.

"Fine, but I want others to help me. Making costumes by myself was a nightmare."

"But it was fun, wasn't it?" Kaito asked. "Making costumes was fun, right?"

"No, singing and dancing while wearing costumes is fun, not making the costumes."

Len sighed. "I wonder how Ruko's doing. Is she having fun?"

The rest of the club sighed like Len. "I'm sure she's glad to finally be able to live as a young woman," Gakupo replied.

"I miss her already," Miku said. After a few seconds of feeling sad and nostalgic, she put on a smile. "Well, we can't let the past ruin our day. Let's give each other makeovers!"

"Why is the answer always makeovers?" Gakupo asked jokingly.

"Because makeovers are fun and that's that. And we're all here to have fun, right?" The club members nodded. "Then let's have fun!"

"Hey Miku," Len called out. "Remember when you said you wanted to change the clubs's name? I don't think we should change it. It suits us and everyone in the school already knows the name."

Miku's smile grew. "You're right, actually. The name does fit us. After all, we're more than what meets the eye."
