The night was horrible. Nanami couldn't sleep at all. She kept thinking about what happened there, in the Saotome's office and in the hallway. The thoughts didn't let her sleep very well, all the feelings were making her heart beat fast. She didn't know what was happening to her, it was too much for a simple girl like her. The sun was rising and it was sending his rays through the room's window. It was painting the sky in beautiful pastel colors, colors that made her wonder how much beauty was in nature. She went on the balcony and stayed there and watched the sunrise. She was feeling good watching how the sun was moving slowly and how the darkness was scattering. Why was so hard to get used to this idea? Why couldn't she accept the fact that she was going to marry a man whom she didn't love for the sake of her kingdom? This was her fate, this was her duty, and she couldn't change anything.

"I know how strange are all these." a voice said from the underneath. "I feel odd, knowing that I am a prince too."

Nanami looked down and saw Ren standing with his hands in his pockets. He didn't look as usual. The dark circles under his eyes were so big that even Haruka could see them. He had a serious expression on his face. It was obvious that in Ren's heart was a battle, like in hers. They were forced to do something that they didn't want.

"Look, Nanami. I've tried everything. I've tried to convince Saotome, my brother, even my parents, but I got nothing. If it's something I can do, tell me. I want to see you happy." he said.

"I don't blame you for all this. It isn't your fault. It's the fact that I've always wished to have a normal life, not this. I appreciate a lot what you did and I thank you so much. But understand that I have feelings too. I can't marry overnight." she almost shouted at him, with tears in her eyes.

He looked at her and his eyes couldn't get off of her. Even if she was hurt and broken, she was still beautiful, she was all he'd ever dreamed of. She was the one, he was deeply in love with her. In his mind, an idea popped out and he started smiling. He knew how to make her feel better.

"Jump!" he said calmly.

"What?" Haruka started laughing at his crazy idea.

"Jump! I will catch you, I promise!" he said to her again.

She wasn't sure about his mental health, but she decided to do that. These days were the only ones that she still had had, she wanted to live life to its fullest. She closed her eyes and let her drop over the balcony's railing. She was caught by his strong arms and opened her eyes. She was now so close to him, that she could feel his breathing. They were looking at each other with passion, they were so perfect together. Nanami didn't like to admit to herself, but she liked the sensation of his hands on her back, how perfectly her body was near his big chest. She didn't notice how handsome Ren was. She felt an impulse to kiss him, but she stopped herself. It wouldn't be appropriate in their situation.

Ren carried her all the way. Haruka had no idea where they were going, but she couldn't concentrate at all. Ren's profile was so interesting that captured all her attention. Her heart was beating fast and she didn't understand what was happening to her. First, the wish to kiss him, now the heart beating fast… What was wrong with her? Probably she was tired because she didn't sleep all the night.

He stopped suddenly. She watched the landscape and noticed that Ren brought her to the roof where he ripped the little piece of paper with lyrics of it. The wind was blowing through her hair while the memories were scrolling through her head. She looked at Ren and smiled. This was the place where she helped him to find again his passion for music. She was drawn there. Was it all a coincidence or maybe they were destined to be together? She had always seen the good in him, even if the others discouraged him. She had always thought that he was a great person. This place was the beginning, where all started.

While Haruka was recalling all the old memories, Ren was looking at her with love. He was feeling full of joy, but he didn't know why. Nanami made him feel that way, she always made him feel good without a reason. He had always been the flirty one, but since Haruka had appeared in his life, he had no eyes for the other girls. His heart belonged to Nanami Haruka, his first and last true love.

"Why did you bring me here?" she asked with a whispered voice.

"Because I want to show you where all started. Nanami, I know that you don't love me, but I promise you that I will be a good husband. I will take care of you. I will be there for you whenever you will need me. I want you to know that since that day when you showed me what I was going to miss when you showed me the right path, I've been loving you. My heart will always belong to you." he told her as he was walking towards Nanami. "I love you, Nanami!"

Haruka froze in her place. It was still strange for her to hear those three words. It was strange to feel a thousand butterflies in her stomach, to feel her heart beating fast as Ren was approaching her. She was confused, her mind was a mess.

"I will wait until you'll be ready. Don't worry. I won't force you to do anything." he said and hugged her. "Now you should go. You have a meeting with Heavens. Don't forget you are still our composer."

She tried hard not to smile. He was so sweet and caring, she didn't deserve him. She started to walk to the door but stopped immediately when she saw Cecil near the door. He was looking at her, but not with love like Ren. He was looking at her with lust. He didn't see Ren, so he got closer and closer to Haruka.

"Haruka, let's run away from here! You don't need that weirdo. We can go in my kingdom and get married and live a happy life together." he said as he took her hand.

Ren wanted to go and break his arm, but he stopped when he saw Haruka pushing him away and withdrawing her hand from his.

"How can you say that?" she shouted angrily. "I am going to marry Ren! I can't just run with you! And besides that, I love Ren, not you!"

That was the moment when all three went silent. They were all shocked by Haruka's words. But for her, all this was clear, she had just realized that she was in love with Ren too.
