Chapter # 3: Ryuichi
"Sakuma-san. May I speak with you a moment please?" I questioned as I stepped into one of N-G's many rooms. Ryuichi was sitting on the couch, holding Kumagoro and next to him sat Shuichi. Shuichi was laughing about something Ryuichi probably had said to him and Ryuichi was laughing along with him, but stopped when he heard my voice. Both of them looked to me.

"Thanks na no da! This'll only take a minute, or two I'm sure." He got up and followed me out of the room, closing the door behind himself. He became very serious.
"What's this about Tohma?"
I stared at the male with the green hair that looked brunette. I bit into my bottom lip a bit. The blue eyes seemed much more powerful knowing I had to look him in the eyes and speak to him. I swallowed hard and pulled the note out from behind my back.
"Did you…Write this?" I questioned lightly.

"No…That wasn't me…Tohma, we had a fling, but I don't feel that way anymore ok? I love you as my friend."
"I know. Someone sent me this and it looked like your writing. That's all. I have another lead on who else it could belong to."
"Who?"
"…Shuichi…"
