Rin's POV

Did I do something wrong again? I thought as I swallowed the lump down my throat.

I watched as Len whispered something in the girl's ear. The girl looked me up and down before she saw my gaze. She smiled warmly at me.

She really is beautiful.

No wonder why Len fell for her.

A deep sigh came out my mouth. I started to clench my fists, feeling the tears coming along. I blinked them back, looking up to Len and the girl. He leaned away from her ear, obviously pissed.

You should be pissed too, Rin.

I should.

But, I'm not.

Suddenly, I felt Kei's hand wrapping around mine. I blinked, looking down to see our entwined hands. From the corner of my eye, I could see Len's lips turn in a scowl.

What am I doing wrong?

"Let's go sit down, shall we?" Kei suggested.

The girl nodded. "Of course!"

Kei dragged me over to a table and pushed me down in a seat. I looked up to see that the girl sat across from me. She smiled again and I couldn't help but smile back. It's only nice.

"So, Rin-unnie...I'm glad that Kei-oppa dragged you over here with us. I thought you would bail on us!" She stuck her tongue out.

What's with the honorifics though?

I shrugged. My eyes trailed over to Len. He noticed my gaze and looked uninterested. I swallowed, watching him wrap an arm around his girlfriend's shoulders.

My heart clenched.

God.

He mind as well slap me.

That would've hurt less than seeing him flirting with his new lover in front of me.

Kei must've noticed my low face as he leaned into my ear. "If you want to leave, I'll leave with you, Rin-chan."

I sighed. "No."

"I just feel as if-"

"I said no, Kei," I said sharply.

Kei inhaled before nodding, turning to Len. "Well, are we ready to eat?"

Len snorted. "I guess so."

The girl rolled her eyes and glared at Len. Len whispered something like a 'what?' and the girl shook her head.

Once the waiter came, we ordered our drinks and our food. Then, we waited some more.

"Kei-oppa owns this cafe," the girl started with a grin.

I widened my eyes, turning towards Kei. "Really?"

His cheeks were painted with a red hue. "N-no! You're wrong, Hani!"

"It's Haneul!" Haneul, I guess, exclaims with a frown.

Kei ignored her. "My uncle owns the cafe. So, we'll get this whole dinner for free! Don't hold back, guys. Eat as much as possible."

I would've been excited, but I just didn't feel it right now. I felt so weak and my stomach kept churning. I felt sick.

"Uhm...I'll be in the bathroom. Sorry," I excuse, getting up from my seat and running to the ladies' room.

Whatever Len is doing, he's doing a fine job at it. I try and try and try, but in the end, I'm still the one hurt. Why can't he be hurt for once?!

But, then, reality slapped me in the face.

He's been hurt so many times by me.

Is this a way to find revenge?

I want to surrender. But, I promised myself to not give up on Len. I don't care how close Haneul and Len are - he's going to end up with me.

I finally arrived in the restroom. I go to the sink and wash off my low face so I won't look so pale and dead.

I stare at myself in the mirror. I can do this. I need to be strong. I need to.

My conscious shot up with determination. I went over to the door and opened it, only to find Len leaning against the wall. My determination fell straight on its face.

He took my wrist. His hand is so warm. "Come with me."

My voice felt weak. "N-no...they'll look for us."

"I'll let them wait," he said, dragging me outside the cafe and to the back. He ran a hand through his hair. "Don't use my friends to get close to me," he accused.

I narrowed my eyes. But, I had to stop. I can't get mad right now. "I'm not using Kei," I object softly, because it's true.

"Then why are you here with him? Do you want to get to know him better? Do you like him? You seem like you do." He scowled.

I can't believe he would accuse me of all of that stuff! "Why do you think that, Len?!"

He got closer to me. "So, do you like him?"

"I do."

He groaned, running another frustrated hand through his hair. "You're messing with my mind again, Rin! You're messing with it and it makes me so fucking mad!" Suddenly, I found myself against the wall with his hands above my head. "What are you to Kei?"

"Nothing other than friends."

"You're lying."

I take in a breath. We're so close, but he feels so far away. "I'm not."

His eyes flashed in jealousy and fury. "Yes you are! You two were holding hands!"

Tears started to well in my eyes. I tried my best to keep them back. "I could ask the same about you and Haneul! Are you just going out with her because you want to make me feel like shit?! Do you really love her?! Are you trying to play some sick game with me?! W-why can't you just like me back?!" I started panting.

It was silence for a few seconds.

Len laid his forehead against mine. I froze. "You need to forget about me, Rin. What happens if we get together and I end up hurting you again? I can't take that chance."

I hesitated. "I'll take that chance, Len. Who cares how long we're together? It could only have been five seconds, and I'll still be happy."

He leaned his body against mine. I took in this moment that we have together because I know that it's limited.

"How about we spend one day together, Len? I want to say goodbye properly. Please. Just one day," I desperately breathe, fluttering my eyes closed.

I felt coldness surge through me. I opened my eyes to see that he leaned back. "Alright. But, only one day, Rin. After that, you have to let me go."

I nodded. I don't think I can let go of Len after one day.

But, nonetheless, we walked back into the cafe. The food has already arrived.

Kei looked up and smiled at me. "Rin-chan! Len! What took you two so long?"

I waved him off. "Nothing."

I ate my food in silence. Me and Len just chewed and listened to Haneul and Kei talk.

I can't blow tomorrow. This is my last chance.

My last chance to prove to Len that he should love me back.


To: Rin Kagene

From: Len Kagamine

Hey. I hope you're free today. I'll pick you up at ten.

I read the message at least a hundred times! This was the first time he texted me ever since the-

I don't even want to say it.

Anyway, it was a new day, and I woke up to find this wonderful text this morning. I honestly thought Kei texted me, seeing as though he has my number now.

Speaking of Kei, after we were done with our food from yesterday, Len said that he wanted to go ahead and go home. I agreed with him and I exchanged glances with him.

Haneul said that she didn't want to go home just yet. So, we ended up going to the park. Kei and Haneul ran around together, actually looking like a real couple, while me and Len sat on the grass under a tree.

"I've missed you," I said to him that afternoon.

"I know," he sighed.

"Did you miss me?"

He didn't answer.

I just kept it at that.

Now, I'm wondering what would he have said to me. Would it be good or bad?

I shrugged, going to the bathroom. After washing up, I decided to wear something very cute that'll make Len look at me twice.

So, I put on very short shorts and a crop top with a white jacket that went over it. I kept it unzipped, though.

I made my hair wavy by putting it in a braid for a good hour and a half. Once I took it out, I heard the bell ring. My face lit up as I made my way towards the door.

I opened it up and was immediately in awe.

God, can Len get anymore attractive? With his tight white jeans and his grey shirt with rolled sleeves, I may just melt.

I watched his eyes look me up and down and I could feel my confidence soar. What is he thinking? That I look sexy? Or, just cute?

Then, he smiled. Oh, God. He smiled! "You look nice, Rin."

Nice. I look nice.

But, I smiled back. "Thanks. Uh...so are we ready?"

He nodded. "Of course. Do you have everything?"

I was about to nod until I remembered about my phone. "Hold on for a sec." He nodded again. I rushed back in the living room and took my phone. I sighed.

Please, Orange Lord, at least make this date something he'll remember.

I ran back to Len. He was standing against his car. I closed and locked the door behind myself. Then, I walked over to Len. He opened the door for me. I think I'm in a dream!

But, wait...when did he get a car?!

I stepped in his car, buckling up. Once he was in the driver's seat, he asked, "Where are we planning on going?"

"Ah...I don't really know," I mumbled. "Hold on, though. When did you get a car?!"

He smiled again. I forgot how handsome he looks when he smiles. "It's not mine." He sounded vague.

"Who's is it then?"

He hesitated. "H-Haneul's…"

I frowned instantly. "Why would you pick me up in your girlfriend's car?!" My frown deepened in a scowl.

Len looked at me. "Please, Rin. I don't want to get in a fight right now. Let's just enjoy our day, okay?"

I want to enjoy it. I really do. But, I'm afraid that jealousy would overcome me and ruin everything.

I sighed. "Alright…"

Without a word, Len started up the engine. "Is the movies okay?"

"Yeah."

And, we drove to the theater in silence.


A/N: Y'know...I need to make these chapters longer. But, I feel as if I should stop here, just to annoy ya'll :3

Anyway, did you like the "Cafe Encounter" with Rin and Len? Do you feel as if Len is starting to like Rin again - even a little bit?

This is a random question, but do you think Haneul x Kei is cute? XD Idk, I just thought about that! Should I make some Haneul x Kei fluff in the future? I'm torn xD

I'm also on Summer Break! Woo! 3 months of no school is sooo amazing! :D
