"Ugh, just let me be already!" Yuma groaned as Subaru ordered him to get a soda. "Alright," Subaru replied. "Really? Do you mean it?" Yuma asked, getting excited. "Yeah. Let me just tell Ayato that we are no longer your bosses," Subaru replied, getting out his phone. He went to Ayato's contact number. "We are no longer in charge of him. Tell Shu." Ayato replied with a thumbs up emoji. Yuma was blindly unknowing he just dug his grave... JK he won't die! "H-Hey S-Subaru-kun?" Nelissa asked. She always was shy. She usually did not start talking to someone without being spoken to. "Hmm? And lose the -kun, I could care less about that," Subaru responded, and looked into her sky blue eyes. Really he thought they put the noon sky to shame. "W-Well I-I w-was w-wondering if y-you c-could h-help m-me w-with m-my w-work. B-But if y-you're b-busy..." Nelissa said, trailing off as she knew he understood. "I am not busy. What subject?" Subaru asked. "G-Gard-dening," she replied. "Well I used to grow roses before I moved here so I will gladly help with that. If you can get me a mountain dew from the fridge. Mr Vegetables won't do it for me," Subaru agreed. Nelissa smiled, went into the kitchen, and returned with a Code Red Mountain Dew. She handed it to him, and blushed when his hand touched hers. "Thank you Neli. I will help you in a few minutes," Subaru said. Nelissa nodded, and went upstairs. "Ooh, Sakamaki has a girlfriend. When's the wedding?" Yuma teased. "She is not my girlfriend. But I am not sure that Shu is not your boyfriend," Subaru said. Yuma's expression fell. "You told him?" Yuma asked. "No. Ayato did. That is your fault for disobeying your boss," Subaru replied, and went upstairs.
In the dorm that Laito, Kanato, and Kou were sitting around. There were three girls in their dorm, all major fans of Kou and Laito. They are creeped out by the smallest male, seeming he bit Amy for asking to hold Teddy. "Hey, Kou-kun! Now that we live together... is sleeping together an option?" Ray asked. "Sorry Ray. I told you. I just can't. Too hurt," Kou refused. Ray looked down, fake tears filling her kitten grey eyes. "O-Okay. I-I'm s-sorry f-for ask-king!" she then ran up the stairs. "Woah there, Kou-kun. That is not an excuse for rejecting someone as pretty as her," Laito scolded. "It was not an excuse. And if it was, then would you say anything better? I am not going to lie to her," Kou said. "Fine then. You have me there Mukami. But still. If you are going to reject, you do it with kindness, not sorrow," Laito said. "You mean with bribes? Laito an idol does not bribe girls to leave them alone. That is straight up wrong. The truth sets an idol free. When in this situation, that is," Kou said. "You sure you did not say no also because you haven't slept with anyone before?" Laito said. Kou blushed a little bit, but that faded. "Are you implying I can't get a girl if I wanted to?" Kou accused. "Yes. I am. If you want to prove me wrong, then go make Ray feel better," Laito challenged. "Fine then. I will prove you wrong anyday. I do not toy with girls," Kou then walked up the stairs towards Ray.
In another dorm was Shu, Reiji, and Ruki. There was a knock on the door. Shu then sighed, getting up and opening the door. "What Ayato-kun?" Shu asked. "I came here to tell you-" Ayato began, but was suddenly in a headlock. "Don't you dare tell him!" Yuma growled. "Oi! If you were to have obeyed Subaru-kun then I would not be here!" Ayato snapped. "He said I did not have to!" Yuma barked. "Yeah only because you told him we aren't your bosses," Ayato said. Shu just closed the door, and went back to mourning on the sofa. "Exuse me, Shu-kun," a female voice called him. He looked up. It was Lillian, a girl who was always helpful but never accepted help for herself. "Hmm?" Shu replied, indicating he was listening to her. "I was just wondering, why is it you are always so sad?" she asked. That caught Shu by surprise. He always held a blank face, but she could see right through it. "I am not always sad. Though I wonder why two of my bonehead brothers keep on using something against our rival," Shu answered her. "Maybe your rival has a secret that they know," Lillian suggested. "That involves me?" Shu questioned. "Yeah. Maybe your rival wants to be your friend, but your brothers are not letting him," Lillian said. "I do not care for friends. I cannot bear to lose one again," Shu said, his voice full of loneliness. "Well. You will not lose me. Aren't I your friend?" Lillian asked, sitting down as Shu sat up. "I will not allow myself to think of you as a friend," Shu replied. Then he mumbled, "So Reiji won't kill you, too." She had heard it, but decided to ignore it for now. "That is kind of selfish, you do know that. I am wanting to be a friend, if only just, and you are not even thinking of considering it. If you do not want to be my friend, for whatever reason, I will accept that. But you can at least tell me why," Lillian complained. "Because Reiji will only rip you away from me. Or burn you," Shu snapped, then got up, and walked away. Lillian smirked. 'If only he knew... then maybe he might give in.' she thought. Then walked off to do her own thing, possibly to go drink soda and play her cell phone.
