Author's Notes: You thought it was over? Well think again. That was the prologue.
Kazuki walked down the street to his house. He was confused. Why did Ban act differently towards him earlier? What did he need to tell Kazuki? So many questions filled his head. Without noticing, he bumped into Himiko. "Oh sorry, Himiko," he apologized. "That's alright," she forgave him. "You going somewhere, Kazuki?"
"Just home."
"Anywhere else?"
"I'm going to have dinner with Ban later."
"You two are having a date?"
"No! Ban and me? That's impossible! He just needs to tell me something." He started blushing really hard.
"Oh," she frowned.
"Is their something wrong, Himiko?"
"He hasn't told you yet?"
"About what?"
"Nothing. Well bye."
She left Kazuki clueless and now more confused. He will have to ask Ban lots of questions later.
Finally, he arrived at his apartment. He reached into his pocket to get his key, when…"Darn. I lost my key," he said calmly. "I think I dropped it in Honky Tonk."
There was no choice but to go back to the said place. There, Ban found the key fifteen minutes, after Kazuki left. He didn't really think it was Kazuki's key but kept it anyway. Since Ban went out to give out flyers to get a job, he brought the key with him.
Kazuki arrived back in Honky Tonk and found Ginji without Ban. "Hello, Ginji," he greeted. "Kazu-chan!" Ginji turned into his chibi form and jumped on the string master's head.
"Nice to see you too."
"Oh, Kazu-chan, you're going on a date with Ban-chan right?"
"No, Ginji. We just need to talk about something."
"But Ban-chan told me last night that he was going to ask you on a date."
"Did he?"
"Yeah. He told me that he likes you a whole lot."
"Maybe he was just joking. He can never like me."
"But he was serious, when he said that."
Kazuki was now blushing furiously.
"I knew you liked Ban-chan as well. He also showed me a picture of his former girlfriend that looked just like you."
