The next day tsume had lilly come over to the house for her help

"You want me to find Tommy, why?"

She asked as tsume sigh not really sure why she wanted this but she knew she was worried about him

"Because dil doesn't know what's going on with him and he believes that I'm the only one that can talk to him"

"...well...he's not wrong, so I'll do it "

"I feel like you're doing this just so you can prove him right"

Tsume said as lilly laughed

" I have no idea what you're talking about I'm doing this because you asked me"

Lilly said as she got to work and found out that Tommy was in new york. After a couple more hacking she was able to get connected to his phone and call him

"Good luck tsume"

Lily told her tossing her the phone Tsume put the phone to her ear as it rang a couple of times before it picked up

" Hello?"

the voice on the other side a tsume know it was Tommy's voice

"Tommy, it's Been a long time"

Tsume said as surprised in his voice made her smile

"Tsume? It's so good to hear from you "

Tommy said as they talk for an hour on the phone, as for Lilly she listened in and was happy for tsume to not be so worried about Tommy for now. Once the called ended tsume looked to Lilly

"Well"

Lilly asked as tsume sigh

"He said Rachel and him are working together on some projects. So he won't be coming back for maybe a year or a month"

"Why?"

Lilly asked tsume shook her head

"Not sure but I believe it's better off like this. This way she won't hurt me anymore"

Tsume said as Lilly agreed. Days go by and everything was wonderful for the Elementals. Christ seems more relaxed when doing his job after a talk with his father, now his father is a fan of there's and supports them.

Christ POV)

Christ finally got the girls there Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album, they got hits on burning gold sang by faiya, give us a little love sang by tsume and once upon a dream sang by Lita.

Their little show that they do at the school would also go viral making a hit at the big Top as they had millions to thousands of fans. In Total, their Awards won,730 Nominations 288. As there fan grew tsume and Ryuichi's relationship did as well. As Christ watched he wish he could stop it. He was in his office alone lost in thought about a lot of things even to the fact that Ryuichi proposed to Tsume, the feelings for her he wanted to love started to rise once again as it came back like a bombshell, the pain in his heartbeat loudly as he knew he couldn't continue this way anymore so he headed over to Ryuichi, he had to tell him before anything else happens.

He called Ryuichi over to his apartment and once he came over Christopher had a hard time knowing how to tell him this, Christ wanted to tell him exactly how he felt about tsume how he couldn't watch him take her away from Christopher side. but what else could Christopher do other than lie to him continuously holding back his feelings until it's too late

"What did you want to talk to me about?"

Ryuichi asked

"I have something to say but I want you to know that I'm not telling you this because we're friends or anything but..."

"Let me guess you want to take the tsume on a worldwide tour?"

Ryuichi said as Christopher was confused by what he was talking about

"I know she's getting famous and but maybe you should give her and the girls a break. I mean come on Christopher you guys are still young it's best to take advantage of it while you still can"

Ryuichi said as Christopher could only laugh at this

"No, that's not what I wanted to tell you"

"Then what is it?"

"Okay well, I..."

Christopher was cut off by his cell phone ringing as he picked up his cell phone and saw that it was from an unknown number. He excused himself as he answered the phone his eyes widen when he heard the voice on the other side telling him don't let Ryuichi and tsume get together or else his company will fall then the line went dead

"Christopher?"

Christopher looked up at Ryuichi who was in front of him looking worried

"Sorry it was the wrong number"

Christopher said, in the end, Chris was not able to tell Ryuichi anything about his feelings for tsume only to come up with a cover story. A week later after Christopher started thinking things over he started saying that the two of them were getting closer by the minute and couldn't allow this to happen before the girls could go on with their performance Christopher told tsume aside to talk

"Tsume doesn't marry me Ryuichi"

"What? What are you talking about?"

Tsume asked confusion not understanding what Christopher was talking about as he went into details about the two of them and their relationships, tsume became a little bit flustered by that

"I'm not the one to be married anyway Christopher you know that"

She said with a smile but Christopher didn't believe her, he already knew that Ryuichi loved her with all his heart and so did Chris but one thing's for sure was that he had to buy or try to get used to it. Even though he promised the back-off and allow her to be with Ryuichiafter getting a phone call about his company falling that scared him even more. Before he can say anything else Lilly called tsume saying it's for them to start tsume excused herself the music started up, Chris watched as He feared the very thought of the relationship he had with the tsume and the others will be destroyed.

after the concert, he took tsume by the hand dragging her away from the others quickly as he pulled her outside

"Christopher, what has gotten into you?"

Tsume asked pulling away from him, Christopher bit his bottom lip knowing fully well what he was about to do as he had no choice but to do so. He didn't want his company to fall, he didn't want to lose the friends that he made, he didn't want what he had right in front of him to disappear but what would happen if he allowed it to

"Tsume I still love you"

Tsume's jaw dropped when hearing this as the case with her violin and hand drop to the floor as well

"I'm sorry what, is this a joke?"

"no it's not, I'm telling you my feelings and I'm telling you that I love you. I've always had and I know that I allowed you and Ryuichi to be together but I just can't take it anymore and I just had to tell you one more time"

Tsume was speechless, she didn't know what to say, Christopher saw her looking around for answers to speak as she was still stunned by this so he did the unthinkable and pulled her into a kiss. she wasn't fighting at first but then she pushed him away with force

"What the hell has gotten into you why did you do that?!"

"I'm sorry but I just..."

Christopher stopped as he looked away from her, how can he fix the one he loved now after what he did. Christopher was trying to break the cycle or at least try to change it in a way they won't be hurt

"Christopher I'm starting to become scared again please tell me you're okay?"

Christopher snap out of his thoughts when he felt her reach out to him, he looked at her with his eyes full of wanting and sadness, she placed her hand on his cheek as he took her hand into his but as much as he wanted to kiss her again or at least do anything to keep her with him he had to control himself.

"Remember when you said that we are friends and that you would do anything to keep this dream alive"

"I don't remember saying that"

Tsume said as Christopher chuckled only telling and closer to her then whispered

"I need you to listen to me and I need you to listen to me close"

but then the door opened reliving Ryuichi

"Hey what's going on?!"

He asked looking suspicious but before he can say anything Tsume beat him to it

"Christopher wasn't feeling well so I followed him outside to make sure he was okay"

Ryuichi looks to Tsume and then to Christopher and relaxed believing her story. A little later when seeing everybody off and giving them a weekday off which surprise them, he needed more time to think about what he should do.

Tsume pov)

Tsume followed Ryuichi inside of the building only to get pushed to the wall by Ryuichi, not hard it surprised her that he did that

"What did he say to you?"

Ryuichi asked as tsume could tell he was still jealous over Christ and wasn't going to give him the chance to take tsume away again

"I already told you Ryuichi, Christopher isn't well and ..."

Tsume sighed as Ryuichi waited quietly For her to tell him the truth

"there's nothing for you to worry about, I do love you and I mean it,I think my aunt is torturing Christopher"

"What... Are you sure, how do you know?"

"I can just tell from looking into Christopher's eyes before he seemed like nobody loved him but then he slowly started to change but now I see fear, I believe my aunt is behind all this."

"Alright, I'll look into it"

"Really, thank you Ryuichi"

Tsume said as he smiled
