"Fallin' Apart"

"Today is still my birthday and you are my present. You can't just leave now."

With that said, Yui sat back on her spot. "Then… is there anything you want me to do?"

"Yes…"

"What is it?"

"I want you to officially make me your girlfriend, Yui."

A sigh escaped the brown-haired girl's lips as she finished her last assignment before Christmas' Holidays. She grabbed her cell phone, just to check the clock. "Three-thirty am, eh? Well, at least it's earlier than yesterday." And so she laid herself on her dorm's bed, and then drifted off to dreamland.

Riiiing! Riiing! RIIING!

Sleepily, the girl woke up and groans softly. No, she wasn't going to yell at her own alarm clock on the bedside table. Instead, she stood up from her bed and marched to her bathroom. "Now I started to think what to do when the holidays start." She sighed; she knew there's something she wanted to do to spend her holiday, especially, celebrating this year's Christmas. "Oh well, maybe staying at my dorm wouldn't be too bad."

Knock, knock, knock.

Another sigh escaped the brown-haired girl who recently still taking her early morning bath. Soon, she heard those knocking sound getting more impatient and a familiar voice calling from outside her dorm. She finished her bath and got dressed in no time. "Oi, Yui! C'mon now~ are you still slee- whoaaa!" The auburn-haired girl gave her a surprised look as she opened the door for her friend.

"What's with that, eh?" Yui asked, raising her eyebrow in confusion.

"Hold on," the other girl ran her hand through Yui's hair. "You've taken your morning bath? Just now?"

"Uh… yeah? Why are you so surprised by that? And moreover, why are you here this early?"

"Okay, you can just let me in first and I'll tell you." With that, Yui stepped aside and let the other girl walked inside her dorm. "Hey, you've been cleaning up this dorm of yours, huh? What's up with that, Yui?"

Yui sat on the carpet floor, across from her friend. "You can say it's a good change these past weeks."

"That's a good answer. Anyhow, I'm here for a reason. Sadly, I can't tell you unless Mio is here with me."

"Tell me why would that be necessary?"

"'Cause-"

"She's your girlfriend. Thanks FYI."

Knock, knock.

"Lucky you. That must be Mio."

Nakano Resident.

"Azusa, are you sure you don't want to come with us? You've always wanted to see how it feels to travel around the globe." The tall man said with a bit frown on his face. He and his wife was about to go to attend their shows around the world, again. After going back to celebrate or giving a late birthday present to their one and only daughter, they can't stay for a long period of time.

The woman looking at her worriedly, but there's a bit hint of statement that she- somehow- can understand that this is what her daughter wants. "Ne, I'm really sorry we rarely spending time with you, not just these days but since long time ago. You do realize and I know it's hard for you to accept and live alone without us. But, Azusa…" She stopped, feeling hesitated a little.

"Okaa-san, it's okay. You guys came all the way here and I know you cancelled one of the shows just to go back to Japan and wish me a happy birthday. Even it's only less than a month; at least I got to see you both. I'm okay; I'm not a little kid anymore." The pig-tailed said, encouraging both of her parents.

"So you're staying here? T- Then how would you spend your Christmas and New Year? Azusa, you don't have to tell us you're okay when you're not."

"Otou-san… Okaa-san… I will be okay. I can spend Christmas and New Year with my friends, remember?" Azusa once again gave out an encouraging smile towards her parents. "Just make sure you guys call me to wish me a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, okay?"

Unfortunately, her mother can barely hold herself from crying. My daughter has really grown up now… why don't I realize that? She brings herself to give her daughter a lovable hug.

Azusa was taken aback by this hug; it's been far too long since she felt so secure in her mother's embrace. The warm, the scent, the arms wrapped securely with a lot of cares in it. She finally felt her eyes teary and began to sobbing every so often. "Okaa-san…" Azusa whispered.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

A cell phone rang; the man quickly answered it, leaving her wife and daughter, as he was talking to the caller. "Ne, Okaa-san… I have something to ask… b- before you go…" Azusa started with a bit of stuttering voice.

"What is it, Azusa? Just tell me, ask me anything you want."

"I… It's… about… Y- Yui-senpai…"

That draws a frown on her mother's face. "Oh… that Yui-senpai you've talked about before? Your graduated senior, right?" The daughter nodded slowly and keeps her eyes on the ground. Her mother got even more confused by Azusa's nervous act. "Then what you want to talk about her? Are you going to spend the holidays with her and maybe other friends too?"

"U- uhm… yeah, we'll spend the holidays together… but that's not what I want to ask…"

"What is it?"

"W- What if… what if it's only me and Yui-senpai spending the holidays together? I mean… as we both, just us, no one else include."

The woman raised an eyebrow, this is not a common question and people usually don't ask this. Azusa is their band-mate after all, Yui was her senior back in last year, so it's only an ordinary thing when two friends meet each other again and spend time in their holidays together. "Sweetheart, of course I'm fine with it. It would just be like a reunion, right?"

"No, no it's not like that. You… you don't get what I mean by Yui-senpai and I spending time together… We're… actually…"

Her mother lowered her head and slowly put a smile on her face. Azusa was confused by this, not by her mother act, but because she knew when her mother act like this, that means her mother knows what Azusa really meant. That was an understanding smile, the smile Azusa always loved since she was a little girl.

"Y- You… do know, right?"

Finally she raised her head to meet with a shocked expression from Azusa. "Your happiness is our happiness. We're not going to against your relationship with Yui-chan. It is the least good thing we can do for you. I know this has been invading your mind for the past few days, now you don't need to worry about it anymore." She ran her hands to her daughter's head, patting it slowly as if Azusa was still a five year-old girl.

Unable to compose any words, she threw herself into a crush hug. "Arigatou, Okaa-san!"

"Eh? What happened here? Why are you crying, Azusa?" The man asked concernedly after he answered his phone call. Azusa pulled back from the hug with her mother and face her father as she smiling happily. On the other side, her father still feels confused. "I would like to know, but really… we don't have enough time to have another conversation. Especially involve 'crying', so Azusa…" He bend down in front her Azusa and taking her hand with his.

"I'm okay. Go now, I bet your car is waiting outside for more than thirty minutes now."

With a bit of chuckle, he smiled and said, "You're a big girl now, huh?" He pulled Azusa into a lovable hug.

"Of course, dad. Uhm… call me when you get there safely, okay?"

"We will, Azu."

Hirasawa Yui's Dorm

"Now she's here. What do you want, Ritsu?" The black-haired girl flinched a bit at the change of nickname.

Sighing in defeat, Ritsu started it first. "Okay Yui, I bet you're free for the WHOLE holidays, so I'm goin' to go straight to the point. You miss her, don't you?"

Yui stunned. This was a physiological question, this is common. No matter how hard she tries to think of the question as physiological question, she still can't stop her mind from remembering a certain someone with a raven black hair. Azusa… She raised her head and glance at Mio. "Who…?" Was the only thing came out of her lips without her command.

"Yui? Oi, Yui!"

Slap!

"Uhhh…" Ritsu was out of words. It's Mio who took the act, so she only sat still there. "I've tried." She muttered, seeing Yui with a bit of concern expression.

"That was hurt, Mio!" Comes a realization of Yui being slapped by Mio right on the forehead. In truth, it's not that hard, though she rarely hit anyone but Ritsu.

Mio rolled her eyes, but then she sighed. "You're really out of it, Yui. You need to come with us now." With that, she stood up and followed by Ritsu. Ritsu, instead of following Mio to the door, she was made her way towards Yui, making the other brunette frowning. "Ritsu, what are you doing, now?" Mio asked.

"Hold on a sec," She put a finger to Yui's forehead, then it's like something popped out of her mind. Ritsu finally said, "Yep, it's true. You're out of Azusa's Energy."

"Azusa's energy? Ritsu, don't make up things." Yui softly snapped.

"Trust me, Yui. Ritsu is dead serious about this. Now, don't talk much, just come with us."

Somewhere

"Eh? I thought we're heading to the train station, Mugi-senpai." The pig-tailed girl frowned as the car she was in just passed by the road to the station. "Shouldn't we turn that way instead?"

"Tell me what do you actually want, Azusa-chan?" Instead of answering the younger girl, she tries to change the topic. Azusa knew that this must be one of the plans she's been having for her. This will involve Yui, for sure. "You know, I can't really think of something good to give you. I figured that giving you a boat or helicopter will kind of hard, not the cost but when and where you going to use it. So yes, I will buy you something you actually want, just name it, Azusa-chan."

A boat or a Helicopter? Oh God, good thing she's not going to give me those. Azusa silently thought as she tries her best to think of the gift she wants. "Wait, aren't we going to exchange presents randomly?"

"I have that prepared already. This gift is the gift I give for each of my friends." Hearing that, Azusa sighed.

She already has her gift, but it's just hard when someone ask you the gift you want. It just makes you forgot what you want instead of remembering it easily. "Uhm… Uh… I really can't think of something good, Mugi-senpai. I guess anything you give to me, I will accept it happily."

"Oh, don't be so shy, Azusa-chan. Just tell me."

"No, really… There's nothing I really want at the moment. It's just… I'm happy even there's no present for Christmas. Having my friends with me is just more than enough." With that said, Mugi—somehow—got an idea.

Sighing, Mugi brings one of her hands to pat Azusa's head. "I just figured a good gift for your Christmas' present."

でもね、会えたよ! すてきな天使に

The ringtone was obviously Azusa's. She pulled out her cell phone and sees a message from someone she's been waiting for. "…Yui…" She whispered as she stared at the caller's name on her cell phone. It seems like she wasn't going to answer that call soon enough.

"Azusa-chan, are you just going to stare at it and not answering the call?" The voice of the girl next to Azusa said with a frown.

The younger girl quickly snapped out of it. "Ah… g- gomen… I will—" Before she could finish, the call ended. "Uhm… I will call her l- later…"

This is not something Mugi can't think of, but she knew that no matter what, her old kouhai also have her own privacy which is not meant to be told. She nodded and smiled before telling the driver to take them straight to the real destination.

For the rest of the trip to their destination, Azusa was dead silent. Not to mention Mugi who seems to be busy with something, since she keeps getting a phone call. The pig-tailed haired girl felt something uneasy, the way she act was just odd for someone who got a phone call from her girlfriend.

Yes. Girlfriend as in a couple. It wasn't too hard—heck, it feels kind of odd at first—to start it, it was more like something they would usually do with each other. Azusa acted like a polite-obedient kouhai, while her senpai acted all clingy and childish. She can manage that, she's really been got used to anything they've done together. Unless, that was the one and only thing that goes wrong in their relationship.

Shouldn't it be more than…that?

Azusa knew their relationship wasn't going to any new level. Not that she want to move too fast, but everything just seems like going nowhere but stay. No, it's not getting any better, especially when Yui have to go back to her dorm and continue college. The promise of keeping in touch went away with the wind.

They rarely talk and communicate with each other. Azusa even had a big dilemma when Yui's birthday came up and she really had no guts to talk to her. Instead of calling her through the phone, she only sent Yui a greeting through message. The younger girl might look a bit though than the scaredy-cat senpai, Akiyama Mio, but when it comes to something like this, she's the most clueless one. Sometimes she even thinks too much just to say a 'Good Night' to Yui.

She sighed; it was a really stupid idea when she decides to sent Yui a greeting through message instead of calling her. Azusa even rejected a few calls from Yui back then.

"Will she be mad and not forgive me for what I've done…?" She quietly asked at no one in particular.

Mugi still have her ears open, she heard those words came out from the girl next to her. "This is Yui-chan you're talking about. Our Yui-chan… your Yui-chan."

The pig-tailed haired girl flashed a small smile. "Arigatou, Mugi-senpai."

Yes, everything Mugi-said were all true.
