This is the 3rd chapter of Puppy Love Come True.

Previously:

"I guess it'll be the three of us for awhile." Miyu said.

"Yeah." The other two girls replied with a sigh.

On the plane, Kanata watched the Heiomachi airport as it faded away until it looked like an ant from his window as they took off for America.

"I'll see you in awhile…"

Chapter 3

~Welcome Back~

It has been seven years since Kanata left to America, and seven years since he last saw his childhood friends. Seven years since he confessed to his childhood sweetheart and seven years since Miyu confessed to him. He didn't mind Miyu's confession to him since he didn't like her that much since she was chubby. He was so excited because he was going back to Japan tomorrow! He can't wait to see his beloved Akira and his friends. He was going to go to school there in Heiomachi and he was going to stay at Miyu's house temporarily because their parents had agreed since Miyu needed company all the time.

~Miyu's house~

"Wake up, sleeping princess!" Chris shouted.

"Uh…h-huh w-what?" Miyu asked sleepily.

"Get dressed! We have to meet Akira and go to the airport! Come on!"

"…Are my parents back?"

"It's a surprise, only Akira and I know." Christine smirked.

"Fine…" Miyu got up and went through her closet. She took out a blue short sleeve shirt with a 'Welcome Back' written on it and a sky blue short skirt to match with it. Miyu had really changed over the years. She has matured, and she's one of the most popular girls in school. She now shares a house with Chris, since their parents are workaholics. She still has feelings for Kanata, but has tried to forget them. She only has 1/3 of her feelings for him, since the day she overheard Akira and Kanata's conversation.

"Ready?" Chris asked her hurriedly.

"I have to brush my teeth."

RRIIINNNNGGG!

"I'll get that!" Miyu said as she took the phone and answered it,

"Moshi-moshi?"

"Ah, Miyu-chan!"

"Oh, Nanami-chan, what is it?"

"Where are you? You're our captain and you're still not here for volleyball practice." Nanami's voice sounded with concern.

'Oh, I completely forgot about that when Chris rushed me. Damn.' Miyu thought.

"I-I'm on my way! Nanami! Sorry!" she said hurriedly.

She ran towards Chris and pleaded, "Chris-chan, I'm sorry but I have to go to my volleyball practice. It's important!" Chris sighed and said, "Fine, but you have to run back to the house when it's finished." Miyu hugged her best friend and said, "Arigatou Chris-chan! I promise!"

"It's not as important as seeing Kanata though." Chris mumbled to herself.

"Hah?" Miyu turned to look at her.

"Ah—nothing! Go on! Hurry before you get late!"

Miyu smiled at her and left.

~At the airport~

The plane just landed as the flight attendants led the passengers to the exit. I wonder how much Akira had grown. She must be really pretty now Kanata thought to himself. I bet Miyu's gotten fat already Kanata smirked at the thought.

"Kanata Saionji, please report to Gate 1, Chris Hanakomachi and Akira Kijyou are waiting for you." The speaker had said. Kanata smiled. Typical Chris he thought.

His heart beat in excitement as he saw his childhood friends.

"Kanata!!" The two girls squealed.

"Akira! Chris!" The three made a group hug but Chris let go early to see Akira and Kanata still hugging. Miyu's heart would ache if she saw this she thought.

"Akira! You're so pretty now, you're beautiful." The auburn haired said as he gazed deeply into Akira's purple eyes. This is not going well Chris thought as she shook her head looking like a complete nut-head. "Chris-chan?" Akira and Kanata asked her in question. Chris looked at them and sweat dropped,

"Ahahahahaha, sorry I spaced out." Chris said sheepishly.

As they took a cab, Kanata and Akira talked to each other. Chris started eavesdropping them for her friend, Miyu.

"Ne, Kanata. Do you still remember the promise?"

"Of course I do." With that, he smiled. The promise they made to each other! The one Miyu talked about! I must listen more! Chris had determination in her eyes as she listened for more.

"Kanata, I missed you so much." She said romantically.

"Same here." He said in return.

'Yeah yeah whatever, can these two get any corny?' Chris thought. She would explain them to Miyu later.

~ Back to Miyu~

"Great effort guys! Don't forget, there's practice tomorrow!" Miyu exclaimed.

"Don't you forget practice tomorrow, right, Captain?" Nanami smiled teasingly.

"Hey! I was only late 'cuz of Chris!"

"Hai, hai."

Miyu ran home and opened the door with her house key.

"I'm home—"

"OW!"

"I'm sorry Chris! I didn't mean to—"

Her emerald eyes met the same familiar auburn orbs. They gazed at each other, wondering who this person is.
