Author's note: Hey everyone!! Sorry I'm late… again… wanted to update sooner but I got so much to do…
-o-o-o-o-o-o-
I want to thank chisse-chan, Alana, Anita Huang, animeluv12, FunkieCookie, Yoruichi.101, Archangel Rhapsody and Houshi-kun for your reviews. Thanks a lot guys!! Most of you are with me since the beginning and for continuously supporting me I'm very very thankful! ( and honoured :D )
Chisse-chan: I listened to the song you suggested me and I really liked it. It's true it's really something Mitsuki would like to sing. I might used it real soon in the story. I thank you very much!
Alana: Thank you for your support Alana, I'm always happy to read your reviews! I'll try my best to keep the good work :D
Anita Huang: Don't worry, even though I'm so long to update I plan to finish this fanfiction without rushing it too much. I want you to enjoy it until the last line!
Animeluv12: Thanks for your reviews! I'm glad you like it! I hope you'll keep on reading!
FunkieCookie: Sorry if you don't like the oxymora I put in… I kind of tend to overuse them because I like the feeling and colour they create. I'll try not to abuse them too much…
Houshi-kun: Don't worry, you'll see soon enough what is going to happen!! I won't give any hint this time. Maybe I'll give some on the next chapter… we'll see :P

Again, I plan to use some songs of other animes:
For Mitsuki, I think of adding three songs between those: Life – Yui, I will – Sowelu, Every Heart – BoA, Four seasons – Namie Amuro, Tsuki no KAASU – Okina Reika, Yo ga akeru mae ni – Satou Areki, and thanks to chisse-chan: Sore ga, Ai deshou – Mikani Shimokawa
For Takuto, I didn't had any good idea beside: Rewrite – Asian Kung-fu Generation
If you have suggestions or ideas for the songs that would help me a lot.
Disclaimer: I don't own Fullmoon wo sagashite. I'm just borrowing the characters and some part of the storyline to write a fanfiction. This time, I'm also borrowing the song Every Heart singed by BoA and Sore ga, Ai deshou, I don't own them.

Meroko's Confession-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Mitsuki couldn't hold the curious gaze that were directed at her. She kept her head low, her face buried under a river of damp brown hair. As she pushed the door from the neighbourhood building, she glanced at her reflection in the window for a second. As soon as she realized she saw her miserable face, tears made their way on her cheeks and she muffled a sob. She had just called her sister. She was supposed to meet her in studio E-541. She spotted the elevator and press the "up" button. While waiting for the machine to respond, she wiped away the tears with her shirt's sleeve.
Some people walked by, never bothering to look at the small girl by the elevator's door. A group of young girls that seemed around her age were laughing happily. As they passed by, one of them looked disgusted at her puffy red eyes and her messy wet hair. Mitsuki sighed softly.
The elevator made that annoying "ding" sound before opening its doors wide. As the young girl went in, she pressed for the floor she needed. She waited for the doors to close and it took way too much time. Every sounds that was made seemed to throb in her head and to echo over and over again. She gripped the side of her skirt and swallowed painfully because her mouth had gone dry.
"Ding!"
The elevator opened its doors and Mitsuki almost flew outside. She walked so fast that for some it seemed as if she was running. She passed the doors from offices, studios, changing rooms… E-529… E-531… E-533… E-535… E-537… almost there… E-539… one more… E-541.
There it was. She knocked three times softly on the door. The door opened, revealing a blond haired girl with a fashionable blue shirt.
"H… Hi, is Madoka here?" Asked Mitsuki.
"Who?" Answered the blond teen, not bothering listening the first time.
"Madoka, Kouyama Madoka, have you seen her?"
The blond teen looked behind her and asked in a sweet voice:
"Kouyama-sama, were you expecting someone?"
Mitsuki pushed on the door a little and saw her older sister drinking from a bottle of water near a couch. It was a photo studio without a doubt. Tears swelled up in Mitsuki's eyes as she ran to embrace her dear sister. Madoka put an arm around her shoulder and her other hand went to pet her little sister's damp hair.
"What happened to you Mitsuki? What could have happened?" She whispered to herself while stroking softly her head.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Madoka took her younger sister out of the studio and lead her to a more private room. There she handed her an handkerchief and smiled softly at her.
"What is it Mitsuki?"
Mitsuki looked up at her purple-haired sister.
"It's just… I don't know what to do… I feel like I'm drowning and… and… it's so wrong…"
"Calm down Mitsuki, take the time to breathe, and think about what you're telling me. I don't understand anything." Madoka cut her gently.
After inhaling a big breath of air, the small brown haired girl continued:
"It's just, there's this friend of mine, a boy that I get along with very well. Since they're so much rumours around, we decided to not see each other again… for a while. But as he said those words… I couldn't help it but started to cry. It's not like it's something big, just not see each other too much… but I don't know… it feels as if…"
"As if he took your heart out and squash it in front of your eyes." Madoka finished.
Mitsuki looked at her sister in the eyes. Even though the image she gave was gross and kind of morbid, it described perfectly how she was feeling.
"Mitsuki, before I give you my opinion on this, can you tell me what you think of this situation. I got a friend that has an awesome boyfriend. But it seems that boyfriend is starting to fall for another girl? What would you do?"
"I don't know… maybe I'd do everything I could to get his attention back. Does your friend really love him? Because if she'd love him she wouldn't ask such a question, would she? She would already know what to do."
"Thank you Mitsuki, you helped me a lot there. For your problem, why can't you go out with him, is he that bad?" Asked Madoka with a suspicious look.
"Oh no… that's not it. I don't love him. We are just friends. He got a girlfriend of his own."
"Are you sure about that? Anyway, don't fall in love with him. If you were a little more pretty I would tell you to snatch that boy away from that girlfriend of his, but since I care for you, I don't want to send you on an inaccessible goal."
Madoka smiled sweetly at her younger sister who just stared on ahead.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Takuto busied himself dinking pepsi in the cafeteria of Kazura's production. He was seeping it slowly, looking rather bored for anyone around. Truly, he felt like crap. He was sad, miserable and angry. He just couldn't put his finger on why. He had been pondering on that thought for the last twenty minutes alone in the cafeteria.
A pink haired teen made her way through the halls, looking for her dear Takuto. After a while, she gave up and went to get a bottle of water from the vending-machines. As she entered the cafeteria, she spot the young man, sit at the table, looking rather lost.
She went straight to him and sat in the chair in front of him. He didn't seemed to notice her at all.
"Takuto?" She said softly.
He turned his head and looked at her, his eyes betraying the surprise and unhappiness of her presence. Was it because he didn't want to be disturb? She forced a smile and continued:
"Is there something wrong? You seemed lost in thoughts? Where's Mitsuki?"
She asked, hoping he would answer at least one of the questions.
He sighed.
Meroko was about to get up and leave when a hand stopped her arm.
"Meroko, do you ever felt something, something you shouldn't felt for someone?"
The pink-haired girl looked at him as if he was crazy.
"What do you mean?"
"Something like this girl loves this guy who loves this girl and he's already in a relationship…"
Meroko's eyes darkened.
"Yeah…" she said softly. "I know a bunch about that…"
She couldn't help but see her situation in the troublesome story. Her feelings for Takuto hadn't fade away with the time. She couldn't help it, she loved the man. She was trying her best to convince herself that she was fine if she could at the very least be his friend. But that was lying to herself. She wanted him to look at her and only her. She smiled sadly.
"Takuto, can I tell you something? Promise me not to get mad, okay?"
Takuto nodded.
"Well, first of all, I really don't think that Ma-chan really loves you. You should be able to have someone so much better than her. I know that Izumi went overboard, saying she was after you for publicity but you cannot say it don't play a part on why she decided to go out with only after you became popular in America. Well this is what I think. Takuto, I'm only telling you that because you're very precious to me. I would prefer seeing you with another girl, one that deserve you than Ma-chan…"
Those words hurt to say. Because she loved him, she loved him so much. But the purple hair teen wasn't dense enough to not have notice what had been happening between Takuto and Mitsuki. They were certainly starting to fall for each other. Meroko wouldn't get in the way. Not in their way anyway.
The girl got up before Takuto could say something. She walked out and went straight to the studio were she knew she could find Izumi.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
As the short pink haired girl opened the studio's door, hot tears fell down her cheeks. Izumi turned around with a bored look on his face, but his eyes widened when he saw Meroko. He got up and walked to Meroko, wrapping his arms around her, crushing her trembling body into his.
"What's wrong Me-chan?"
She pushed him away a little. A smile grace her lips, her eyes were still crying but they seemed to hold happiness and tenderness.
"I just made the biggest love confession of my whole life… I also learned something Izumi. Do you know why we broke up?"
The dirty blond haired boy looked at her as if she just grew a second head.
"Whad'ya mean Me-chan? T'wasn't because you loved Ta-kun?"
"No, Izumi. It wasn't." She put her finger on his lips as he tried to say more.
"Think Izumi, think carefully. When you'll know the reason, come see me."
She walked out without saying more.
Izumi looked at her back and snorted. What was she thinking? A minute ago, it was all about Ta-kun and know she almost said that they could be back together… As Ta-kun rejected her again? Was she trying to just forget about that grey haired boy… or was she just playing with his feelings? Was she trying to play him, just like he played her a year ago?
Izumi put a hand on his head and squeezed the small dog-eared black hat that he was wearing.
"Izumiiiii, wha'll you do with Me-chan now?"
"I don't know Jonathan… for once, I really don't know…"
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Mitsuki went home by bus. She didn't bother asking Takuto or Keiichi for a ride. She didn't want to burden them more than what she already had done. In her bedroom, she sat alone looked at her calendar. Her old moon calendar. The one given by Eichi-kun. At that moment she felt like throwing up. She ran for the bathroom and her hurting stomach did the rest… She was betraying Eichi-kun.
She promised him to reach for her dream so they could be closer, but for a while there it was all about Takuto… How could she not notice? She took a piece of paper and started to write. She wrote down words and sentences… she wrote down her feelings at the moment.
"Yasashisa ha tokidoki zankoku dakara"
"Kindness can be cruel from times to times…"
"Motomeru hodo kotae wo miushinau"
"I lose sight of the answer the more I search for it"
She looked down at the paper and started to sing softly to herself.
"Ameagari no machi niji ga mieru nara"
"If you can see the rainbow in the town after the rain"
"Ima arukidasou nani ka ga hajimaru"
"let's start walking now, something is about to begin"
"Kimi ga iru kara asu ga aru kara"
"Because I have you, because I have tomorrow"
"Hitorikiri ja ikite yukenai kara"
"because I can't live on all alone"
« Konna ni chikaku ni kanjiru sore ga, ai deshou »
"I feel you so close by me, I guess that's love"
« Namida no kazu no itami wo kimi wa shitteru kara"
"Because you know how much pain tears can bring"
Mitsuki smiled softly, like remembering something sweet.
"Sukitooru sono me no naka ni tashika na imi wo sagashite »
"I want to find a smile in your transparent eyes"
"Egao mitsuketa"
"as I search for a meaning in them"
She looked at the lyrics and sang it again and again. It was like she was drowning herself in her song and she wasn't sure for who she expressed her feelings in this song. But she wasn't scared anymore. She will definitely find Eichi-kun again and she wouldn't lose Takuto's friendship.
And the song sounded so nice, she was so going to present it to Takasu-san on their next meeting.

Sorry guys…
