It was almost the end of another Roselia concert. The current song they were on was just coming to a close. Yukina was on the right side of the stage -Sayo's side- while Sayo and Lisa were on the left side of the stage together.

The final notes rung out of the song. As it ended, Lisa flashed a smile to Sayo and did a small happy jump. Sayo moved closer and without thinking kissed her on the cheek.

"You're cute."

Lisa froze up as a blush covered her face. Unbeknownst to Sayo, Lisa's microphone had caught that. Everyone had heard her say that.

The other three girls were staring at them too. They all recovered fast. Yukina concluded the concert and they bowed. They left the stage.

"Sayo, quite bold of you to say that." Yukina commented.

Sayo gave her a glare, "What does that mean?"

"You aren't normally that bold."

"That was not me being bold."

...

Sayo found out the next day the truth. She had been online and had seen a video of the concert with a very interesting headline. As she watched it, she realized that she had been heard by everyone.

She was going to die. That was so embarrassing. Now she understood everyone's comments after the show. They all seemed to have realized that while she hadn't. Great. Now everyone knew.

As Sayo walked to school that day, she noticed she was getting a lot more stares than normal. She tried her best to shrug it off, but it felt weird. Were they aware? Were they judging her?

"So... she can be like that?"

"It's so weird seeing her be nice like that. She always seems so strict."

Sayo overheard similar conversations. She had no idea what to do. It... was not necessarily a bad thing that they were seeing that side of her. If it made her seem a bit more approachable, then it might be useful.

"Hikawa-san?"

"Huh? Oh, do you need me, Shirokane-san?" Sayo was brought out of her thoughts.

"Yes. Um... can you come look something over with me?" Rinko asked.

"Sure." Sayo agreed.

It would be good to get away from all the students and their stares. Except, even in the student council room she was caught up in it.

"You actually did that in front of all those people, huh?" Arisa was in the room.

"I... I guess I did." Sayo mumbled, "I didn't mean to... have the mic pic it up..."

"What are you going to do about it?"

"I don't think there is anything I can do."

She was doomed to suffer. She had no way to deflect what everyone had seen and heard. No way to lie about it. Everyone knew the truth. Sayo really wanted to crawl in a hole and die. It was very embarrassing.

All day was hard. She had a lot of people whispering about her. People looking her over. Sayo hated every minute of the attention she was getting, but had no way to make it stop.

...

"Lisa..."

"Hmm? What's up, Sayo?"

After classes, Sayo and Lisa went to her house. They were currently sitting on Lisa's bed. Sayo had just leaned against her.

"I'm so embarrassed... I can't believe I did that... And now everyone knows..." Sayo whined as she buried herself into Lisa's hair.

Lisa chuckled, "It was cute, Sayo. Honestly, I don't think it did as much as you think it did. I mean, everyone knows we're dating already."

"But still..."

"Hmm... maybe I can get... would she? Maybe... yeah." Lisa started talking to herself.

"Um, what are you planning?" Sayo could not help but ask.

Lisa smiled at her, "Asking someone to do something similar to take everyone's attention away from us."

"And who would ever do that?" Sayo asked sarcastically.

"I was thinking of asking Kasumi."

"Of course... well, I'd appreciate it honestly. I do not like all the stares I'm getting or the comments." Sayo said.

"Then we can ask her together. For now... can we have some fun?" Lisa smiled as she pinned Sayo to the bed.

Sayo turned bright red, "L-Lisa..."

"I wanna kiss you so bad, Sayo. Can I?"

"S-sure."

Lisa smirked and leaned in to kiss her. Sayo had no choice but to go along with it. Not that she minded this. It was helping to take her mind off of everything that happened today. She liked that part a lot.

She just hoped she wouldn't make a mistake like that again. She did not need people seeing her be affectionate to Lisa like that. At least, not yet. She was not ready yet.
