Utau sweatdropped towards the situation she was currently in- she had been bewildered not too long ago by the sudden appearance of her ex-teacher slash aunt's ex boyfriend. The blonde let out a sigh as the two figures were seated on a bench, with Nikaidou who was happily munching on his giant ring doughnut in delight (The doughnut is, while Utau just held her jam doughnut with a face that clearly said 'just what the hell is happening'
Utau was about to open her mouth to speak but the man next to her seemed to beat her to it "Ah, Utau-chan, by any chance- have you been checking your phone recently?" he asked
The blonde blinked for a moment, startled by the sudden question since she had grown used to the silence "Sanjo-san had me change phones for stuff to do with Easter, my old phone is still at my house and I haven't seen it in a while, why?"
Nikaidou seemed to let out an 'hmm' as he nodded "well that explains it,"
Utau raised an eyebrow towards the male "Explains what?" she questioned
"Oh, you'll see."
The idol decided to drop the topic for now and took a bite out of her doughnut,
"So, how are your studies going?" he asked
"Fine"
Once again the two sat there in silence, the only noise which could be heard was the sound of the two munching on their doughnuts and the occasional ruffling of paper from the packaging. After what seemed like centuries Utau decided that she wanted nothing more than to go home and sleep.
"Uh...Sensei, I think I should be going home now," Utau spoke, getting up and throwing the used packaging and napkins into the bin.
"Alright Utau-chan, stay safe" he said smiling
"I will, you too." Utau replied before walking off.
"Oh, and Utau-chan!" Nikaidou called out causing the blonde to inwardly face palm as she turned around in question
"Don't forget to check your old phone- alright?"
Utau stared towards the man for a brief moment before nodding "Alright, bye"
And without further delay the idol walked away, back towards her home.
x-x-x
Utau huffed once she reached her house, almost robotically she placed her keys onto the counter and made her way into the kitchen then pouted, she wasn't in the mood for burning the kitchen today as cooking seemed like way too much work for the poor idol, she didn't have to worry about Ikuto since he had said he wouldn't be coming home today, her Father was on a business trip in Italy and would arrive back soon- but not today. Sighing Utau made her way back into the living room and picked up a pizza delivery brochure seeing as it was the best option- oh, and that the blonde practically adored pizza, so it was a win-win for her.
Once she had placed her order, Utau yawned and laid down onto her couch in exhaustion her eyes landing towards the remote placed on the table. Utau whined as she tried to reach for the device buy alas, the table was too far from the poor Idol's reach. Huffing Utau sat up straight and grabbed onto the remote, pulling a face when the television in front of her wouldn't turn off. With a frustrated groan the blonde threw the remote onto the sofa and marched up the stairs.
Utau sighed when noticing that Il was asleep on the draw next to her bed- she had made a small bed for her out of a box she had found a while back- Utau glanced towards the other egg which still had yet to hatch, frowning Utau picked up the egg and examined it; wondering if it was even going to hatch at all.
Utau let out a frustrated sound as she put the egg down and hid her face into her pillow- Gods, the world was just full of incompetence! Speaking of incompetence a thought struck the blonde as she remembered what her crazed ex teacher had said;
Have you been checking your phone recently?
Just what did he mean by that? Scoffing Utau sat up and turned towards her draw which was right next to her bed, raising an eyebrow the blonde opened the draw and skimmed its contents for her phone.
...Where was her phone?
Now panicked Utau began to rummage through all her draws for her phone—only, she couldn't find it.
"What the fuck..." she muttered in confusion
Utau almost jumped as her current phone began ringing rather loudly in her jeans pocket- taking a deep breath the blonde pulled it out only to notice it was her aunt calling-...again.
Scowling Utau found her thumb resting on the green image on her phone letting her answer before pulling the device towards her ear. "Hello"?
"Ah! Utau, good I've reached you! Unlike your lazy ass brother..." Sanjo-san had muttered the last part
"Uh...Yeah, so what do you need?"
"Oh Utau-chan thank you for reminding me! Gosh I'm becoming so forgetful these days...anyway I need your help pronto! Get over here!"
Utau started towards the phone in disbelief "what- Now?! Sanjo-san it's 10pm!"
"Are you disobeying orders Utau?"
"What- are you actually being serious right now? Ugh, fine- I'll be there"
"Good, glad to have you finally seeing things my way. See you in a bit! Toodles!"
Utau stared towards her phone for a few seconds before screaming into a pillow.
x-x-x
Utau glared towards her aunt's house as she stood on the porch, groaning she banged on the door, it didn't take long for her aunt to open the door.
"Oh Utau! I'm so glad you could make it!"
"Yeah, yeah just what the hell do you want me to do? The faster we do this the faster I get to go to my bed." Utau waved off causing Sanjo-san to glare.
"Right, I'm moving some of my things to my office at easter!"
"...what"
"I'm moving some of my-"
"I heard what you said!" Utau exclaimed
Sanjo-san blinked and adjusted her glasses "Oh really? Good, then come now! You need to move the boxes!"
Utau had never loathed anyone this much in her whole entire life. With a defeated sigh Utau nodded her head and held her arms out for a box
x-x-x
It had only taken an hour but in the end they had managed to move most of what Sanjo-san had wanted into her office.
"Marvellous!" Sanjo-san chirped as she clapped in glee, much to Utau's dismay.
"Right then, I just need to get one more box from the car and we're good to go!" Sanjo-san smiled before walking out of the room causing Utau to roll her eyes.
"Good grief my aunt is a slave driver" Utau muttered as she sat down on a chair.
The blonde drummed her fingers against the wood of Sanjo-san's desk in boredom, just what on earth was she supposed to do-
Music
Utau gasped, she knew the song in fact- she knew the song very well.
The blonde wasted no time in getting on her feet, she began to wonder around towards the source- "Just where is it coming from..." she muttered
Utau began to walk towards the main part of the desk, tilting her head towards the side Utau opened the draw.
...or at least tried to open the draw
"It's locked..." the blonde muttered frowning; she began to look around the room for the key- crawling around on the floor- searching behind the curtains.
"AHA!" she exclaimed in triumph as she held up the silver object in glee. Smirking the blonde carefully positioned the key into its rightful place and turned the object- opening the draw in success.
It didn't take Utau long to figure out what was causing the song to play.
"My phone..." she gasped out
Just what was Sanjo-san doing with her phone? Why did she even have it in the first place?!
Utau was about to unlock the device but the sound of footsteps immediately caused the blonde to change her mind- skilfully shoving her phone into her pocket and quickly closing the draw- locking it while she was at in then also shoving the key in as well.
Utau rushed towards her previous position on the chair and pretended to play around on the phone Sanjo-san had given her.
The blonde could hear her heart pounding in her chest as she heard a click signalling the door was open
"Alright Utau! I'll take it from here" her aunt waved off "You can go now,"
Utau nodded "I still can't believe you dragged me all the way here" she muttered before exiting the room and walking out of the building.
x-x-x
Utau shortly reached her house as she wasted no time in grabbing the keys from her purse and opening the door, closing it and slamming her keys onto the counter as she ran up the stairs in such speed that one was to think she was in the Olympics.
Utau ran into her room and shut the door behind her- locking it as she sat onto her bed and pulled out her original phone- turning it on and unlocking the device Utau couldn't help but let out a loud gasp.
Texts
Loads of them
"Oh my God..." Utau whispered as she scrolled down
I'm sorry
I miss you
Where are you?!
What's happening?
I don't understand,
Are you okay?
Utau chocked out a sob as she continued to scroll down,
"Kukai, you idiot" Utau let out before letting out a frustrated sound-
But a recent text caught the blonde's eye
To: Tsukiyomi Utau
From: Hinamori Amu
Subject:...Hi?
Utau-san, I understand that you're apart of Easter but don't you think that it's a bit cruel that you're ignoring Kukai? He's been worried about you for ages! I don't understand just what you're doing! You're being a bitch Utau, a selfish bitch-
Utau threw her phone against her bed- refusing to read the rest of the text- but immediately went to retrieve it and went onto Kukai's contact.
To: Souma Kukai
From: Tsukiyomi Utau
Subject:...
I'm sorry.
Utau debated on whether or not to press the button. Just press it! damnit! Utau closed her eyes and pressed onto the delete button.
...only it didn't delete
It sent.
Utau stared towards her phone in betrayal, as if it was the device's fault. The blonde groaned and buried her face into her hands and began muttering
You're being a bitch Utau, a selfish bitch
"I'm not..." Utau whispered, sounding more like she was trying to convince herself rather than anyone else
A bitch
"Shut up"
A selfish bitch
"Shut up" She repeated
You're not like this,
You've just been caught up with the wrong people
Please Utau
You're just afraid
Please, just let us help you
Utau gasped out as she covered her ears with the palms of her hands, eyes shut tight
"Wait!"
"Uhh, Hoshina Utau?"
"You...uh...dropped your student handbook"
"So, what's your name?"
"You seemed lonely by yourself"
"You've been crying"
"I'm sitting with Utau!"
"Why am I thinking about you..." Utau whispered, slowly uncovering her ears
"I'm sorry"
"Why is he sorry?" Utau muttered, her eyes slowly travelling towards her phone
"He probably hates me" somehow the thought made her feel...wrong, it felt horrible.
Flashback
A blonde rolled her eyes as she sat on top of a students' desk in a classroom.
"God, this cleaning up the classroom is so tiring" Utau sucked on her straw- the cup was from subway filled with sprite as she watched another figure holding up a broom and cleaning the floor
"Tell me about it-...What the- Utau! What the hell? You're supposed to be cleaning too!" the male whined as he pouted towards the blonde
Utau smirked "Sorry Souma, but I seriously don't do the whole cleaning thing.
Kukai dropped the broom and walked over towards the blonde- placing both palms on either side of her on the desk as she stared towards her- causing the blonde to fight back the red that was forming on her cheeks.
"Oh really?" he asked, a few brown locks from his fringe was inching down over his left eye and Utau had to fight the urge to push it back.
"Y-Yes really" Utau spoke, cursing her traitorous stuttering, lilac eyes averting towards anything but him
"Huh..." he muttered,
It became silent for a few moments causing Utau to wonder just why he went so quiet- finally working up the courage to actually now look at the male Utau almost cried out in utter outrage.
He was sucking on the straw.
"THAT'S MY DRINK YOU JERK!" Utau yelled, arms flailing everywhere
"Hey wait-! Ut-"
Utau bit back a scream as she accidently smacked her drink, due to her arms whirling everywhere, causing the two to become drenched with the drink.
"-au" he finished in dismay
The two stared towards each other for a few moments before bursting into laughter in unison.
"Oh my God-" Utau started as she laughed hard
"I can't believe you just-" Kukai laughed out
"Christ!"
As the laughter died down and the two calmed down Kukai smiled towards the girl "Hey Utau,"
The blonde grinned as she looked up "hm?"
"I'm glad you're my friend."
Utau's eyes went slightly wider than usual "Idiot" she muttered looking away, but there was a smile on her features
"Seriously though, I love hanging out with you" he grinned taking to notice towards how embarrassed the blonde was getting.
"W-whatever! Let's just clean this mess up" she muttered, heading towards where the nearest mop could be found
End of flashback~
"What the..." Utau whispered in confusion as she leaned against the headboard of her bed "Just...Why did I remember that?"
It took Utau a few seconds to realise she was blushing as she stared towards herself in the mirror. "W-what- why am I blushing?"
Utau almost jumped out of her bed in surprise when her phone started to ring- hesitantly the blonde turned around slowly to face the object, Utau had nearly chocked in surprise as she started towards the contact name
Souma Kukai
Utau quickly began to fix her hair before stopping
"What the hell...he can't even see me! Why am I getting so worked up about this!"
With now slightly more confidence Utau picked up her phone and pressed on the 'answer' button and placed the phone next to her ear.
Utau was the first to speak.
"H-Hello?"
