Hey guys! Just a quick little note: I realize that there are more songs in the DOE series than I listed, but when I was introduced to the series, I only knew about the ones I wrote about so um… sorry if that upsets you? I suppose I could write something about the others in "Behind the Songs" later if you guys want ^^;

Anyways, here's the chapter~

"So you've never actually been a part of an idol group?" Rin asked Miku.

We were all in Miku's dressing room in the studio. Kaito and Meiko were shocked the first time Miku suggested we visit her there after our shootings for 'Message of Regret' and 'Re_Birthday' which were currently being edited by Riley's elite team.

Miku shrugged. "No, in fact the only duets I've ever done have been with Luka." She gestured towards the pictures on her wall. I smiled. Compared to the first time I had talked to her about Luka, Miku was really open. Before, she wouldn't even mention Luka by name, but over the past few weeks, we'd gotten to know the pink-haired pop star through Miku's anecdotes.

"She was the one who sang magnet with you, right?" Kaito asked.

Miku nodded. "Yeah." She glanced over at me and Rin. We were tangled together in a chair that was normally meant for one person. "Actually, I bet the studio will ask you guys to do a cover of it, you being twins and all."

"What's it about?" I asked.

Meiko and Kaito turned to stare at us.

"What?" Rin and I asked together.

Miku broke first, her chiming laughter filling the room. Meiko and Kaito joined her quickly.

"What?" we demanded.

They laughed harder.

"If you're not going to say-"

Miku waved me off. "It's not important. If they ask, they ask. If they don't, then never mind."

"But-"

There was a knock on the door just then. "Miku?"

"It's open!"

Paula, Miku's manager let herself in. She looked flushed, as if she ran the whole way.

"What's wrong?" Miku asked, frowning.

Paula glanced around the room, realizing for the first time that Miku hadn't been alone.

"You can say it in front of them," Miku assured her.

Paula refocused on Miku. "The hospital just called," Paula said, "about Luka."

Miku stood up. She kept her expression neutral, but her eyes betrayed her anxiety. "What did they say?"

"She's awake."

Wow, I think this is the shortest chapter so far o_O Well, I hope you enjoyed it ^^
