O the reason why I haven't update anything in a reaaaaaaaaally long time is because my computer was formatted and now all of my stories on my laptop has been deleted… sigh… o well I hope you enjoy this chapter!!

Previously in Chapter 7:

Sana twitched finally realizing that Akito was still holding onto her.

"PERVERT!!" Sana screamed and attacked him with her red hammer over and over again.

Chapter 8:

Sana stopped attacking Akito as soon as he let go of her.

Then she grabbed Aruto's hand and walked away saying that she had to go and drop off Aruto at his house after grabbing her white jacket.

"Aru-kun, let's go! I have the rest of the day off until night when I have to come back here…" Sana smiled as they stepped out of the house/set.

"O-oneechan, can you not take me home?" Aruto asked softly and looking away as Sana glanced at him confused.

"Why not?" Sana asked the dark haired boy.

"I… don't wanna go home because…" Aruto stopped talking and then started again, "Well, you see… my parents don't really care for me…"

"Huh?" Sana asked stopping as Aruto slowly stopped walking.

"… My dad's in jail and my mom…" Aruto was silent.

Sana squatted in front of Aruto with a caring look in her eyes.

"I…" Aruto started again before leaning on Sana's shoulder.

"It's okay, Aru-kun… I'm here," Sana whispered lovingly into the young boy's ear.

Aruto fell asleep a short while after Sana offered to carry him on her back, which he did.

"Ah, he's so cute when he's asleep… he reminds me of…" Sana sighed as she thought of Akito and what happened between him and her 3 years ago.

"Oneechan…" Aruto mumbled in his sleep clenching on her jacket tighter.

"I'm here, Aruto… I'm here," Sana said as she finally sat down on a bench and letting Aruto sleep on her lap.

I wish I could keep Aruto forever…

Ah… how cute!

Akito looked out the window of the room he was staying in at the house/set as Sana slowly walked back with the still sleeping Aruto on her back.

"Sana!" Akito heard Rei call out as he ran to her, causing her to stop.

Akito saw her say something which caused Rei's eyes to widen.

Akito brushed his hair back with his hair as he stared at Sana from his window.

"If the director won't let Aruto stay here with me, I'm gonna run away with him far away!!" Sana yelled and barged in to get her stuff.

"Wait, Sana! Sana!!" Rei called while running after her.

Sana ran past Akito's open door, glancing in for a second before running into her room and locking the door.

Rei ran past Akito's door now and stopped when Akito said his name.

"Hey what's going on with her?" Akito asked Sana's frantic director, who hesitantly looked back at Sana's door.

"Um… she wants to adopt Aruto… he doesn't have a mom and his dad is in jail, so Sana wants to adopt him… since the boy is going to be sent to a foster parent unless he has someone who can take care of him…" Rei stammered hesitating before every sentence, wondering if he could trust Akito with this kind of information.

"So are you going to let her adopt Aruto?" Akito calmly questioned looking at, the only thing that separated him from Sana, the wall.

"Well… if I don't she's going to run away and adopt him anyways, and if I do the paparazzi will be all over them and gossip will rise… there'll be a big misunderstanding as well… Sigh Sana…" Rei sighed loudly trying to open Sana's door.

Akito walked to his window and stepped out on his balcony.

He looked at Sana's balcony and then walked closer to the edge.

I think I can jump onto her balcony…if I can't I hope she tells me that she loves me once before I'm dead… (a/n: he's having a sort of emo moment right now… sigh)

Akito jumped up onto the farthest edge of his balcony and leaped as far as he could.

He barely made it when Sana came out with the now awake Aruto.

"A-Akito? What are you doing?" Sana asked surprised to see Akito hanging from her balcony.

"Just help me up…" Akito muttered, looking down and looking like he was getting sick.

"O right… you're scared of heights… I forgot," Sana laughed helping Akito up.

"So are you really going to adopt Aru—" Akito asked when Sana looked down.

"Sorry, but I have to go somewhere… I probably won't be back for a while, so…" Sana started, trying to smile and was squeezing Aruto's hand.

Akito turned around and brushed his hair back, sighing.

"Hey… At least tell me where you're going, because when I told you I missed you when we first met back with each other, I meant more than just 'miss'… I meant…" Akito grew quiet, not looking back at Sana as his hand dropped.

Just then Rei stepped out onto Akito's balcony…

a/n: well I hope this one was good! And once again I'm sorry for taking such a ridiculously long time on this chapter!
