"Hey Chiemi!" called Mari, but before Chiemi could turn around Namida grabbed Mari from behind a bush.

"What the heck was that for!" said Mari angrily.

"Shh!" snapped Namida, "Look!"

Right in front of them was Kiba and Chiemi holding hands.

"Ahh," said Mari, "When did that happen?"

"I say they're in LOVE!" replied Namida.

"Kiba, what if someone sees us, especially Hikara, you know how she is," said Chiemi nervously.

"Calm down, Chiemi," said Kiba in a soft voice, "This is my secret place no one really comes here."

Kiba and Chiemi sat down on a bench.

"Now what did you need to tell me?" asked Chiemi.

"Well…" Kiba started, "I… I-I like you, Chiemi. From the moment I saw you I loved you."

"Kiba, how sweet of you!" said Chiemi blushing as she was holding Kiba's hand, "I-I like you too."

"Chiemi, would you be my girl friend?" asked Kiba.

Chiemi paused and then said, "Yes, I will."

Just then Kiba took out a k18 gold ring with three diamonds on it, and placed it on Chiemi's finger.

"Oh! Kiba it's so beautiful!" said Chiemi who was so amazed that Kiba would buy her such an expensive ring.

Chiemi started to blush even more.

"A ring?" said Mari.

"With three whole diamonds!" added Namida.

Kiba and Chiemi were now walking in opposite directions.

"Why were you following them?" asked Mari.

"I was writing a story on that bench," Namida was pointing to a blue bench, "Soon I saw Kiba at the gates. I was going to say hi, but then I saw Chiemi running up to him. It was a little fishy seeing them together by themselves. So I hid behind this bush."

"So you admit you were spying on them," exclaimed Mari.

"No," Namida was gathering up her notebooks, "Well… Yeah I guess."
