Chapter 7 finally here! Chapter 8 is in the works.

Kourin ran down stairs as she was excited to get to the card shop. It's barely been a day and she already wants to see Aichi again. She was hoping to surprise and hopefully just her time there. She was also hoping to hang out with her friends there, maybe get to know his other friends (not Morikawa). She was putting on her shoes and was just about to open the door when Rekka called out to her.

"Kourin, what are you doing?!" She urgently stopped her.

Kourin was startled by her. "Um, I was about to head to the cardfight."

"You can't do that, don't you remember what we were supposed to do today?"

She gets the feeling that she's forgetting, but can't quite remember. "Noo, what were we supposed to do?" She nervously asked.

"Augh! We were supposed to have a meeting for that concert we were going to have!"

"Oh…" Today is going to suck.

Its was a busy day at card capital as the regular group were hanging out and cardfighting. As usual, Misaki look over the group to see if they're up to anything as she reads her light novel "My Bride is a Space Ninja." She'd rather not have to put up with the shenanigans today, she is still too flustered from the day before. The fact that she now has a boyfriend is still sitting into reality for her, especially since she's been crushing on him from some time. Of course she is sharing him with someone else, that is something she thinks that she could get around.

She begins to think about him, daydreaming of how it would be like dating him. No matter how much she tries, she can't push him out of her mind. Like the way he looks at her makes her heart skip a beat, how sweet and kind he is, or the cute look he makes whe-

Misaki covers her already beet red face with her book. 'Shut up already, you idiot!' She tells herself. The sound of the door opening breaks her out of her reverie, just about to greet the person until she noticed that Aichi was standing in front of her.

"H-hi," he bashfully greets her.

"Hey..."

It was an obvious awkward tension between the two. It wasn't until a few minutes later that they've noticed that they were being stared at by everyone in the cardfight. That's when they've realized that their fatal mistake. They haven't told their friends.

'We've completely forget to tell them!' Aichi thought. 'Should we right now?'

'Hell no!' Misaki thought almost psychically. 'I'd die of embarrassment!'

A pause had passed before Aichi awkwardly walked away from Misaki and towards the group. The others are still trying to process what happened while Morikawa and Kamui was too dense to know what was going on.

'What is actually going on between those two?' Miwa thought. There's clearly something that happened.

Aichi takes a seat next to Izaki and Miwa leans in close to whisper to him. "Aichi, what's going on?"

Sweat run down his forehead. "What?" Aichi responded nervously.

"There's something going on between you two. You both even disappeared for the entire day of yesterday."

Aichi eyes drifts to Misaki and finds her sending a death glare at him. Fearing for his life, he quickly tries to make an excuse. "There's nothing going on! Nothing really! I just didn't feel like coming to the card shop is all."

'He bad at lying,' Miwa thought. It would be pointless though to push for questions, he won't budge. The group moved on, playing cardfight, bickering with one another, talking about school, etc. During this, Aichi would sneak glances at Misaki whiling would nervously look away and vice versa. Every time he would see this, Miwa would get more and more irritated.

Miwa looked over to Kai since surely he's seeing the same thing he is. Unfortunately, it looks like he just seem uninterested and much rather focus on vanguard. It was the same with the rest of the group. He was at the verge of tipping over the edge at this point, but decided to just let go of it. He sighs. 'This sucks.'

Suiko, Kourin, and Rekka are waiting in the conference room of their agency's building. They've been waiting for the male idol that is going to work with them in a concert coming up and their agents thought that at the very least they should start to get to know each other.

Even though they came earlier than what they agreed upon, Rekka was already getting irritated already having to wait. "Suu-chan, what do you think he will be like?" She asks.

Suiko ponders for a moment. "Hm, I'm not sure. Takashi seems nice enough."

"And cute too!" She adds. "What do you think, Kou-chan"

"I don't really care," she responds irritatedly, "just want to get this over with."

"Jeez, looks like someone is a little desperate get somewhere," Rekka smirks, "don't get so moody with us just because you're so forgetful."

"Now Rekka, we all know Kourin is not interested in any other boy, Takashi isn't her type," Suiko teases. Kourin blushes as the other two sisters laughs at her expense. She is really regretting telling these two.

It wasn't long before Takashi had arrived at the meeting. He was a fairly tall, skinny young teen with a muscular build. He had short, hair with bangs covering his forehead head. He wore a black long sleeved shirt with jeans and a gold pendant.

"Ah, you three must be Ultra Rare, it great to finally meet you three. I'm a fan of your work." He bows to them. The air around him seemed so pleasant and easygoing that it gave him this charismatic vibe. "My name Takashi Kurosawa, but you can call me Taka."

Suiko was the first to speak. "Nice to meet you too, I'm Suiko and these are my sisters."

"Hello~ I'm Rekka!" She introduced herself cheerfully.

"Hi! I'm Kourin," she force on a smile. "We hear a lot of good things from you work."

"Likewise, I'm stoked to have to opportunity to work with you three," he smiled. The girls were taken aback by his sincerity.

Their agents entered the room and they began meeting. The meeting was rather short, mainly informing them about some of the details regarding the location, their schedules for rehearsals, and what songs they might be performing. The agents eventually left and left the idols to talk to one and another. They began to get to know each other though his attention would repeatedly shift to Kourin. She would try to brush it off, but it still felt awkward. Eventually Takashi had to leave, in which Kourin was glad to hear, she really wants to get to the card shop. When they girls were about to leave, Taka called to them.

"Just wanted to say it was nice meeting you three, I'm looking forward to the concert," he smiled.

"Yes, let's work hard together to make this concert a success," she chimed. The rest nodded in agreement.

"That sounds good," he hummed, "I guess I should be leaving now."

"Sure, I hope to see you soon." The group wave goodbye to each other with Taka having one last glance before leaving. Kourin breathed a sigh of relief. She finds Suiko and Rekka smirking at her and it infuriates her.

"It looks like someone else is interested in you, I hope Aichi isn't the jealous type," Rekka teases.

"Ugh, can I just a moment without you two acting as if my life is some soap opera for you entertainment," Kourin snapped.

"Kourin calm down, we don't mean anything by that," Suiko tries to console, "it's just that we sisters do."

"I know, I just…" She tried to find the words, but couldn't. There's been plenty of other guys that always tried to flirt with her, asking her out on dates, but she is already with someone else. Not that she could use that as a defense, idols can't date. "Just forget it, let's just hurry to Card Capital."

All that she needs to do is just work with until the concert is finished and she won't have to see him again. Hopefully nothing else comes up.

It was lunch break for Misaki and as usual she's eating in alley by the shop. She liked it there, its quiet and it has a nice breeze that blew through it. She sat on the bench and ate her food, watching as Assistacat ate his. She heard footsteps and she turned to see Aichi walking up towards her.

"Can I sit next to you?" He said while pointing pointing at the bench.

"O-of course." They quietly sat together, enjoying the presence of one other. Misaki scooted up to him till their shoulders were touching, causing him to smile nervously. Then there was a loud rumbling noise, causing Aichi already flushed face to get redder.

Misaki laughs, knowing it was from Aichi. "You haven't eaten anything, have you?"

"I have, in the morning… The smell of your fooding is making me hungry again," he admitted.

"Oh…," she looks to her food and then to Aichi. "Would you like some of mine?"

"Eh? No no, I wouldn't want to take any of you food!" He waves both of his hands in protest.

"Aichi, I won't enjoy the rest of my lunch knowing that you're right next to me hungry. Just take a bite, I won't mind."

"...A-alright."

Misaki picks a piece of grilled fish from with her chopsticks and lifts it to Aichi. "Now open your mouth." He closes his eyes and hesitantly opens his mouth.

'Am I seriously going to do this?' She asks herself. She slowly moves it towards his mouth until she realizes something. 'I'm about to put the chopsticks that been in my mouth into his.'

She heavily blushes from the realization. She picks up the fish with her hand and plops it into his mouth. Aichi immediately opens his eyes, feeling Misaki's fingers on his lips.

"Looks like you two are having fun without me."

The two break away while Kourin behind them give the two a sly look.

"It's not what it looks like!" Misaki yelled. Aichi would have said the same thing, but his mouth was full.

"Relax Misaki," Kourin tried to calm her, "I don't mind it." She takes a seat next Aichi and places her hand onto his. "We are sharing him after all."

"Right…"

"I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier, I had a meeting for a concert," she apologized.

"Wait, is it the same concert with Takashi?" Aichi asked.

"Oh yes, how did you know?"

"My mom and sister are huge fangirls of the him and they wanted to go to see him perform."

"One of my friends is actually a huge fan him too," Misaki mentioned, "he's getting really popular lately."

"Hm, I guess he is. It's funny to hear your family is coming," Kourin mused. "Maybe I could give them a tour, it'll be funny to see them find out that I'm their cute little Aichi's girlfriend."

Aichi blushed at her comment. Though he was hesitant to tell them the news. "Oh she already know." The two girls looked at him in disbelief.

"What?! Did you really told her?!" Misaki fumed.

"My sister knows too…" He nervously fumbled his fingers. "They saw something was off and they forced me to tell them. I'm not really the best liar," he laughed. He got flashbacks of that moment.

"Oh my god! My son finally got not one two girls!" Aichi's mom was excited for her son. "So when is the wedding date?" she jested.

Aichi embarrassed covered his face. "Mom seriously…"

"Who would have thought that they were nothing crush?" Emi pondered. "Especially Misaki, I'm happy to have her as a sister!"

"Me neither." This whole situation is still unbelievable to him, but he guesses he has to get used to it.

His mom walked up to Aichi and placed her hand on his head. "I'm surprised that you're actually dating the both of them, but if they're both okay, them I'm happy for you. For the both of you I mean."

Aichi nodded. "Thanks…"

Kourin sighed. "Did you at least tell them to keep it a secret?"

"I did, they told me that they won't tell anyone," he answered. He hopes at least.

"...What about the rest of our friends? Should we tell them too?" Aichi asks.

Misaki and Kourin silently thought for a moment before deciding.

"To be honest, I'm not really comfortable telling them, not right now anyways," Misaki said.

Kourin agreed. "I'm with her on this one," she nodded.

Aichi was confused about their responses. "Really? Since they're our friends, I just they should know."

Misaki nervously scratched her cheek. "They are, and they're good friends... I'm just too embarrassed for them to know," Misaki laughed.

"I outright don't trust them," Kourin admitted. "They're your friends, but they're not mine. I'd rather not risk it like that."

"I see…" he said.

"No offense! I just-"

"Its fine, I understand. I just don't feel comfortable keeping secrets from my friends is all."

Kourin eyes focused on Aichi dejected face. She smiled and gave him a peck on the cheek. He quickly placed his hand on his beet red cheek where she kissed. "Kourin! I-"

"Don't worry, we're going to tell them, just not right now," she assured him. "Just don't get so down about it."

"R-right."

Misaki got up from her seat. "Well I've gotta get back to work," she pouted.

"Don't tell me you're jealous Misaki," Kourin jokes.

"I'm not!" Kourin laughs at her as Misaki begins to walk away "You two should come too."

"Yeah, let's go." The three walked together towards the entrance of the shop. Aichi turned his head to see the two girls and smiled. 'This isn't so bad.'

The door opened and a booming, deafening voice boom from the shop.

"KOURIN-CHAAAAAN!"

"Ugh…"
