Uchimaki lied on the floor in his sleeping bag, unable to sleep, because a girl was in his room. He closed his eyes but the fact that the girl he has liked recenty was on his bed kept him awake.

"Usami-san? You awake?" Uchimaki broke the silence.

"Yeah,"Usami answered. "I can barely sleep."

"Me neither, maybe talking a bit will help us."

"Okay, where's Yurine-neesan today?" Usami asked.

"Onee-san went out for a sleepover with her friends." Uchimaki said. "What did your mom say about staying at my house?"

"She didn't want me to go out so late and our car was being fixed so… yeah…"

"I can protect you, you know?"

"Pshh, if that, I could go by myself." She giggles.

Uchimaki sat up. And gave Usami a pissed face. Usami smiles warmly at him.

"If you keep mocking me, I will take my bed back."

"Ooh, I'm SO scared!" Usami sarcastically said.

"That's it." He waddled towards his bed standing on his knees and took Usami's wrist then pulled her to his direction. Usami's face was dragged towards Uchimaki's. An ocean of red rushes to Usami's face, Uchimaki looks intensely into Usami's eyes and whispers "Get off my bed."

"Okay, okay, I'll stop mocking you." Uchimaki released Usami's wrist and lay down into his sleeping bag. Same goes for Usami.

"You know," Usami spoke after an awkward silence. "I've always wondered why we all have to call each other by our last names when we leave elementary. Don't the elementary kids always call each other by their first names?"

"Yeah, I sometimes question that too." Uchimaki nods. "But why are you telling you this? Do you want me to call you by your first name?"

"It's not that, it's just something that popped up in my mind."

"Okay," Uchimaki yawned. "Good night… Mizuki."

Usami smiled to herself and said quietly "Good night… Subaru."

The next Monday, Ayase walked up to Usami's desk during break.

"Mizuuu, where were you on Saturday?" She moans. "I went to your house but your mom said you went to hang out with a friend. Who is this friend? And surely they aren't better than meee…"

"Well, uhh, on Saturday…" Usami fumbles with her words and ended up covering her face with blush.

"Ehh? Through the look on your face, it looks like you've been with Uchimaki-kun."

"Eep! How did you find out?"

"It's true?" Ayase looks deep into Usami's eyes. " What did you two do?"

"N-Nothing, Kaori!"

"Really?"

"Yes!"

She's hiding something… Ayase thought. I'll come to her club tomorrow and ask Uchimaki-kun. She chuckles to herself.

After class, Usami went to the art club. When she slides open the door, it was the familiar scene again. Uchimaki drawing at his easel with Collette no where to be found.

"Oh hey, Usami-san." Uchimaki looks up from his drawing.

Back with the last names again, huh? She sighs.

"Hi, Uchimaki-kun."

"You look pissed, why so?" He asked. " Is it because I didn't call you Mizuki?"

Usami shrugged. "I don't know…"

"Well, I'll call you whatever you want me to, so, Mizuki or Usami-san?"

"Let's just stick with the last names for now, okay?"

"Alright, Usami-san."

A/n: Kaori is coming to the club next chapter!
