Len trembled and stared at Miku with wide eyes.
"Surprised to see me here?" Miku smiled.
"What are you doing here?" Rin asked coldly.
"Oh? I'm Akaito's girlfriend. I'm allowed to be here as long as he allows it." Miku said.
"What ever happened to Dell Honne? The guy you CHEATED on Len with!" Rin almost screamed in anger.
"Oh he's long gone. I have Akaito now." Miku smiled innocently and hugged Akaito.
"So you just used him like you used Len?" Rin asked, though it sounded more like a statement than a question.
"Pretty much." Miku said flatly.
"And you're probably using Akaito too, huh?"
"No, of course not! Akaito's different! He's special. I love him." Miku looked up at Akaito.
Akaito smiled. "I love you, too." Then he leaned down and kissed Miku.
Seeing Akaito's and Miku's lips meet snapped Len out of his paralyzed state. He began to sob and when everyone turned to look at him, he got up and made a bee-line toward his and Kaito's bedroom.
"Len, wait!" Kaito tried, but Len had already slammed the door and Kaito heard the deadbolt click.
"You're despicable." Rin scowled at Miku.
Everyone but Rin stared at the direction Len ran and didn't even notice the smug look on Miku's face.
"Why…? Why does she have to be here…?" Len sobbed to himself. "I was just having fun when she has to come and ruin it…" Len sniffled and rubbed his eyes, trying to calm down. He stared at the ice cream keychain he had gotten for Kaito as a Christmas present. Kaito had told him to not worry about any gifts, that his family isn't big on the whole giving gifts thing… But Len still wanted to show his appreciation to Kaito.
Len had found twenty dollars on the floor when he went out for a walk one morning before Kaito was even awake. So he went to the store to see what he could get and saw the blue ice cream keychain, thinking it was the perfect gift. So he bought it and was hiding it the whole time.
Suddenly, for some reason, Len started thinking about that kiss. He could still feel the tingling sensation he had gotten when their lips had made contact. And the feeling of Kaito's big hands on the small of his back while stroking his thigh gently… Lovingly… Wait, why was he thinking about Kaito?! He was a dude! And way older that him! "But… I love him…" Len realized and said aloud. "I… I love… Kaito…" Fresh tears began to stream down his face at the realization that Kaito probably didn't see him that way. That he could never have the one he truly wanted… The one he trusted with all his heart… "I-I love Kaito…" Len sobbed. "Kaito… Am I the only one who feels this way…? Will you ever truly be mine…?" Len spoke aloud to himself in the empty room. He buried his face in his pillow and cried.
Miku laughed sinisterly from the front of Len's bedroom door. "Things are going to get a lot more interesting around here." She said to herself and walked away.
A few hours later, when Len had finally gotten ahold of himself, he got up and opened the bedroom door. He walked out to the living room and saw Kaito laying on the couch and Miku… On top of him…?
"You're such a good kisser, Kaito." He heard Miku say and giggle. They were seemingly unaware that Len was watching them.
"M-Miku… Akaito-" Kaito was cut off mid-sentence by Miku's slender finger being pressed against his lips.
"Shh… He doesn't need to know." Miku winked and locked lips with Kaito.
Len could see Kaito's hands up Miku's skirt and shirt. Miku's hands were on top of his as if she was guiding him on where she likes being touched. "K-Kaito…" Len muttered, staring wide-eyed and seeing Kaito push Miku away from him.
"L-Len! I-It's not what it looks like! I swear!" Kaito tried to explain.
"Right… Your hands just happened to be up her skirt and in her shirt!" Tears began to cascade down his face for the third time that day.
Kaito got up and reached his hand out to Len. "Len, I-"
"DON'T TOUCH ME!" Len screamed.
Kaito was startled and pulled his hand back. "Len, I swear-"
"Shut up! I don't want to hear it! I've been lied to more times than my heart can take!" Len's hand was clutching his chest where his heart is. "Just when I thought I could love again, you ripped my heart out and shattered it! Just like she did!" Len pointed to Miku.
Len's screaming and yelling had caused everyone to come running out of their rooms to see what the commotion was. "Len, what's wrong?" Rin asked.
"Len, just let me expla-" Kaito tried again.
"I said I don't want to hear it! I've had it! I HATE YOU!" Len screamed at the top of his lungs then bolted out the front door.
"Len!" Rin yelled. "Come back!" Rin began to run after Len but Meiko held her back.
"You'll catch a cold, Rin!" Meiko said. "Get your jacket."
Rin nodded and followed Meiko to go get their coats.
"You guys can't go out there! It's 2 AM! You'll never be able to find him in the dark!" Kaiko said.
"But… What about Len?!" Rin asked, worried.
"He'll probably come back soon. It's too cold outside for him to stay out long." Taito said. "Just get back to bed. We'll sort things out in the morning."
Everyone except Kaito listened to Taito and shuffled back to their rooms. Kaito just stared at the front door, Len's words echoing in his mind.
