"Numbers?" Hibiya questioned.

Haruka took a pencil out of his bag and wrote down a number under each name.

"What? How did you even get these numbers?" Seto read the numbers again, still getting confused.

"'7332726372723473'... oh!" Kano realized something. "The Dan!"

"'The Dan'?" Hibiya asked.

"Oh, right, you don't know, it's like a little gang we made when you guys weren't here," Seto said.

"Oh, uh..." I already know this, I'm just asking what about the Dan... But, it's weird, how does Shintaro know about Hiyori dying on August 15 over and over... Is the heat mocking me again?!

"I'm pretty sure Shintaro meant to code it like this," Haruka said.

"Then what does the numbers mean?" Kano smirked.

"I-I'm... not... really sure..." Haruka smiled and sweated.

"Then we're stumped again," Hibiya sweated.

"GRR!"

The boys heard Mrs. Kisaragi frustrated to the point that she slammed the phone down onto the table and stomped to the kitchen.

"U-Uh, Mrs. Kisaragi!" Seto said quietly since he was scared of being yelled at by her, "You should put the phone on... the holder... you know..."

The room was quiet enough to hear a noisy cricket nearby, and the doctors still there sounding very confused as to why there wasn't a screaming lady on the other line anymore, soon hanging up with an awkward 'bye' and the phone beeping.

"That was pretty spineless!" Kano said while Seto sweated a bit, "I know Kano..."

"It doesn't look like she's coming back anytime soon..." Haruka said.

"Then I'll go put the phone back on the holder and someone kill that cricket!" Hibiya said while getting up. I've heard that same cricket too many times!

Hibiya walked to the phone and picked it up while looking for the holder.

The holder was on the wall, so high that Hibiya couldn't reach it.

Hibiya tried reaching for the holder with a stretched arm and on his toes, stretching trying to get up.

He was stuck there for a moment with the room, again, quiet enough to hear a noisy cricket.

"Pfft!"

"KANO SHUT UP!" Hibiya said in irritation.

"Amazing! You take after Shintaro!"

"GRR! WHY DOES THE HOLDER HAVE TO BE SO HIGH?!"

"This is getting no where..." Seto walked over to Hibiya. "Can I help?" he asked holding a hand out

Hibiya grumbled before standing regularly and putting the phone on Seto's hand.

Seto held and put it on the holder with no struggle. He stared at it for awhile while Hibiya sat down and got teased by Kano.

"Is something wrong?" Haruka asked.

"No, it's just that I wonder why home phones have letters on the buttons when home phones can't even send texts!" Seto smiled while sweating.

"That's true..." Haruka said.

"You guys are weird..." Hibiya sweated.

"Eh?! Well I can't really help it with the whole letters by numbers thing..." Seto rubbed the back of his neck.

"Oh! Seto you genius!" Kano got up.

"Eh?"

"Jeez, Haruka's such an idiot..." Takane grumbled, again, while taking a sip of her fruit punch (they brought their fruit punch with them).

"Eh? But isn't Haruka your boyfriend?" Mary asked.

Takane spit-tanked, "EH?! THAT IDIOT?! MY BOYFRIEND?!"

"E-Eh?" Mary asked a bit scared while Takane kept screaming as many insults possible about Haruka, even though she was blushing as red as a tomato.

"She's in denial," Momo sweated while Kido nodded.

"Total tsundere!" Hiyori added.

"Neh, Momo, do you have any love interest? Like Takane-" Mary asked.

"HE'S NOT MY LOVE INTEREST!" Takane yelled while Mary covered her head afraid that Takane might hit her.

"Nah, not yet, Hiyori?" Momo turned to Hiyori.

"No, I'm just stuck with that idiot Hibiya..." Hiyori complained. "Mary?"

"Hm... no one really comes to mind..."

"What about Seto?" Kido asked.

"W-What?! No way! Seto's like my dear first friend or brother!" Mary blushed at the thought and grabbed a pillow to cover her face.

"What about you? You haven't talked much," Takane asked Kido once she got her tsundere level down.

"I don't plan on having a love interest at this age," Kido took a sip of her fruit punch.

"What about Shintaro?"

Now it was Kido's turn to spit-tank and blush as red as a tomato. "HAH?!"

"Or Seto, or Kano-"

"JEEZ MARY! BE QUIET!"

Kido took a deep breath to calm down.

"Seto and Kano are like brothers to me since we're pretty much family," Kido calmly said, "And Shintaro..."

"Y-Yeah... sorry..." Mary hugged the pillow tightly.

"N-No it's fine..." Kido said, "Besides, I think Ayano-nee took an interest on him, and I can't betray her, especially not now..."

"Speaking of Ayano, where is she?" Takane asked.

"Maybe she's still out in the hall," Momo said.
