Chapter 14: The Lost Art of Keeping A Secret so Take me out: Part 1
'So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you' I mentally sing as I followed behind the two girls pretending to listen to music as it is considered to be rude to listen to music by yourself when your with other people so I am mentally singing to myself while I listen to the girls talk until I heard my name.
"So Hikitani when are you going to choose?" she said making me and Yumiko stop dead.
"what do you mean Ebina" Yumiko Asked sweating bullets and I don't blame her how to you tell your best friend or anyone that you're in a polygamist relationship with a man and four other female, so with that reasoning we have kept it on the down low but it's not even been a week and someone has already found out.
"well you must be fighting for his affection, as you have got incredibly friendly with Yukinoshita and Sakisaki even got more friendlier with Yui and Isshiki, that and I saw the two of you yesterday shopping together, so what are you guys, are you really a couple, and what happened to Hayama?" she said to the two of us, shit we though as we look at each other, if she saw us shopping together then, I think Yumiko's reputation is going to go down, as expected this is why I can't be with them if this happens, but she can only hope as my reputation can't go down any father, not like it matters to me but to her who is has a social reputation to uphold, this could only end badly but I hope we have a lot points in the LUK stat.
"heheh yes that's right, sorry I didn't tell you earlier, it hasn't been long since I entered the race for Hikio's attention, but I'm still not sure it was more like a rebound thing after the devastating news that hayato laid upon me but, after that time shopping with him, I can truly say that I do like him despite the eyes, no his eyes give him a weird charm that looks good on him" she said not only to her best friend but at the end of her small speech she looked at me making sure I knew that she meant every word she said at the end abut properly liking me, and there we go my difficulty bar razed from 7 to 7.9, but I think my feelings are felt and reciprocated by her, still unsure why I like her but, maybe I am a girl magnet and if so thank you romance comedy gods, but I still haven't found the genuine reason why I like her but if I keep searching for it with her I will find it just like I will find it with the other girls although with them I feel like the searching itself will feel like a quest or an adventure, and I do like adventures especially ones with a fantasy feel.
"Ebina what about you and Tobe, you cannot tell me you don't know he is in love with you" Yumiko stated to her fiend in response to the mocking that and deep questioning that Hina was asking.
"Can we not talk about Kakeru please "she requested making me and Yumiko look at each other.
"Kakeru?" Yumiko giggled as Hina looked at her with her a little mad but at the same time I could see on her face the relief that she said his first name and not his last showing her friend that she indeed like him but unknown reasons she couldn't bring herself to say that she like him, though I knew the reason she was just shy and that is also why she hides behind her BL obsession though she probably does really enjoy it at the same time. Our small group continued on with the girls chatting to each other about various books, most of which I read so it was interesting to hear what they had to say about the charterers, plot and other thing that they like ether about a particular book or the series in general. Me and the two girls finally caught up with the rest of the small group we found as they were waiting for us at the entrance to the mall 'back again why' I mentally screamed as I walked into the mall with the large group although I could hear Yumiko say something to Hina.
"Not a single word to anyone or else I tell Tobe" she threatened her best friend who just looked at her and laughed before replying with a nod and some words that I couldn't hear properly. Walking in with the group I could feel a relaxed tension in the air, maybe it was the face that I wasn't alone with I girl but I really felt relaxed right now it was kind of nice.
Walking into the Karaoke shop the counter girl recognised Yumiko and greeted her like if she was a regular.
"hello Mura did you want a room today?" the girl said at the counter before seeing passed Yumiko "oh are these your friends, how nice so you want a room for all of you well, its number 7 it's on the right side" she said as she gave Yumiko the key but as usual something bad happen to me, this is why I don't leave my house.
"excuse me Sir" she calls out to me as I was at the back of the pack " you can't go in there without booking a room" she says to me looking like she would pick up the phone at any moment to I guess call security.
"Walking back out, I sit down on the chairs and wait, as arguing with the woman would be dangerous, I don't want to get taken away by security, so I sat and waited for one of my acquaintances to come get me , hoping they notice I was gone, minuets passed and I was just sitting there looking at my phone, looking up at the girls she was kind of creped out by my presence though she couldn't do anything about it, waiting for some I finally saw a peach coloured hair bun, Yuighama to the rescue.
"Excuse me miss have you seen our friend, she looks really pain and has creepy eyes" she said to the lady at the counter 'really Yuighama that's the best you could come up with.
"oh you that guy that is sitting at the front, oh I thought he was some creeper trying to get inside without paying or trying to creep on you guys" the girls explains why she didn't let me in for Yuighama but not to the guy who she refused entry.
"Common Hiki" Yuighama calls me so I stand and head to the room with her, walking in it was very awkward as everyone stared at me.
"Hikitani where did you go?" Tobe asked me and I just looked at him 'just notice I was missing' I mentally asked as they waited or me to explain why I wasn't here.
"Well as per usual, I wasn't allowed in because the lady thought I was some creep, and yeah" I explained and everyone except Yukinoshita who just look at me like it was expected.
"What how could she do that" Sakia said as Kawasaki look angry and everyone else bar Yukinoshita who was just sitting there with her head down was surprised.
"I knew Senpai was kind of creepy but that's still too far" Isshiki said to everyone, that's Isshiki that's for the kind words.
"Well it's all in the eyes, those dead fish like eyes, that we have grown accustom to unlike others who hadn't" Yukinoshita explained logically making everyone else nod, why are you nodding its not a good thing, anyway I sat down and listen to everyone sing until it was my turn, and it was me alone as the first turns were like that apparently, looking through the songs I backed out of the Japanese category and into the English category looking through I was impressed they had lots of different songs ranging in all categories and ages excellent ,looking through there was only one some that I could think of right now and thankfully they had it, putting it on I heard the guitars come in with the drums that came in a few seconds later I was ready to sing.
The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret – Queens of the Stone Age
Well I've got a secret, I cannot say
Blame modern movement to give it away
You've got something, I understand
Hold it in tightly, call on command
Leap of faith, do you doubt?
Cut you in, I just cut you out
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone
Look for reflections in your face
Canine devotion time can't erase
Out on the corner, locked in your room
I never believe them and I never assume
Stuck in belief, there is a lie
Promise is promise, an eye for an eye
We've got something to reveal
No one can know how we feel
[Chorus][x2]
I think you already know
How far I'd go not to say
You know the art isn't gone
And I'm taking our song to the grave
[Chorus][x2]
And with that I was finished and I got a very high score, looking extra proud of myself I looked around to everyone else who was stunned because of my performance or in the case of the girls who had heard me sing before they were impressed again 'well I just raised some more flags excellent' I thought to myself with being sarcastic as I thought of the excellent part, I'm meant to be choosing one not impressing them all as my luck would have it I will be arrested but I knew I had a good run.
"Wow Hikitani, I didn't know you could sing so well" Tobe said as he smiled at me and it was weird I couldn't help but shudder at the niceness I was getting from the guy.
'wow Hachiman that was incredible do you think we could sing together" Saika said to me cutely and I was extremely happy at his look on his face ' no no Hachi, wrong route, back out now' I mentally scolded myself as I sat down next to the one who has been the most quiet Kawasaki.
"Hikigaya, that was amazing, you did very well" she commented as she was blushing heavy as I looked around to see Yumiko and Yukinoshita glare at me, must of picked up what I was singing about oh well it's a great song anyway.
"Well now that Hiki is finished only two people are left, Yukino and Saki" Yui said as the two looked away not wanting to go up and preform in font of everyone though Yumiko had the answer to that.
"Common Yukino, you said that you would beat me in a singing competition so here's your chance" Yumiko told Yukinoshita who looked at her with a glare before standing up and picking up the remote staying in the English section Yukinshita looked at me.
"Hikigaya I require some assistance, I don't ever listen to music so I have no idea what to choose and if possible I want to keep it in English, so I need to choose a song about beating someone" she said to me so I looked at Yumiko who nodded and I grabbed the remote of her and scrolled through the song until I found the song that was good for her picking it I sat back down and smiled.
Misery Business – Paramore
I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top
She's got a body like an hourglass, it's ticking like a clock
It's a matter of time before we all run out
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth
I waited eight long months, she finally set him free
I told him I couldn't lie, he was the only one for me
Two weeks and we caught on fire
She's got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Oh, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could, then you know you would
Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
Second chances, they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore you're nothing more
I'm sorry, that'll never change
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey, but I passed it up, now look this way
Well, there's a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
They want and what they like
It's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Oh, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could, then you know you would
Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Whoa, I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
Oh, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God, does it feel so good
Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could, then you know you would
Cause God, it just feels so
It just feels so good
Finishing the song she look at her score and smiled, she had did it although I didn't know Yumiko's score but by the look on her face she had won walking back to her seat the tension between the two was huge, which was a good thing for Yukinoshtia and for Yumiko to learn humility, but now it was Kawasaki's turn and she looked around, oh no she didn't know what to do, she has probably never listen to music properly in her life, well looks I'm back to being DJ again.
"Kawasaki, ill chose a song for you" I said as I looked at her I was painful to watch her expression as she tried to make sense of everything and watching her flick through the songs without deciding was as equally painful. Flipping back to the Japanese side of the machine I chose a song from a game as I was easily and it was a fun song to sing.

She finished and most of us were in awe as Kawasaki had such a grate singing voice.
"Wow sakisaki, can't believe you hid that from us" Hina said as everyone commented on her excellent singing ability.
"Now that the single rounds are over its time for the duets" Yui said standing up we all looked at her and then it went all downhill from here there was going to be a round two.
