Hey! Sorry I keep taking so long to update, this chapter is a bit shorter than the others because I felt a shorter chapter sooner would be better than a longer chapter later. :) I am working on the next chapter, and hopefully will get it up before long.

Oh, And I decided to star naming my chapters, because I think I like it better when they are named... :D

Also, I put up something on my profile about wanting ideas for some One Shots, if you would like to check that out. ^^

Yume was brushing her mass of curls when Miku walked into their room.

"Well Someone got here late~", Yume sing-songed, eyebrows waggling.

"Oh, stop it Yume!" Miku said grinning. "It isn't even 'lights out' yet."

Yume just started humming as she kept on brushing her hair; It didn't look like she was making much progress though…

Miku got dressed quickly for bed, in a pair of black shorts and a teal tank, rolled into bed, and lay there listening to Yume dance with her headphones on until the chime for lights out started, then heard her rush into bed before it ended. Yume always waited until the last possible second to go to bed.

Miku lay in the dark unable to sleep.

The next morning Miku took some music to Mew, so she could help her pick out what to audition with, she had three weeks until the start of the competition.

They decided on a heart-wrenching pop ballad for her entry round. So Miku took it to the practice rooms and had at it.

She was playing the piano and singing, When Yume walked in.

"Heyo Miku-Miku~!" Yume said in a cute-tsy voice. "Would you like me to play so you can just focus on singing?"

Miku Thought for a moment. "Sure! That would be great," Miku smiled. "Are you planning on entering?"

"Yuppers! You can play for me after we finish working on your piece," She said winking at Miku.

"Okay, fine," Miku giggled, she and Yume were used to helping each other practice, they did it all the time before starting at New Wave.

Miku hopped up off of the piano bench, and let Yume sit down. Yume flung her masses of golden curly hair behind her, and smoothed her blue and plaid skirt, as though she were about to perform on stage. She straightened her bow-tie and turned to Miku, "Whenever you are ready, Darling," She said in what she thought to be a low and grown-up voice.

Miku chuckled, "Ready, Maestro," Miku said in an equally grown-up voice.

So they continued to practice, and when Miku thought she had done enough for the time being, she started to play for Yume. Yume had chosen an extremely upbeat pop song, all about the singer having the boyfriend of her dreams, and how they were going to live happily ever after.

After they were done practicing, they went over to the dance studio to get in some practice there.

They put on some upbeat music in one of the large dance rooms, and started warming up.

They went through several dance routines they had learned over the years, with dance styles ranging from ballet to hip-hop. By the time they were done it was time for dinner, so they headed over to the cafeteria.

They walked in a large crowd through the line to get food, and then started looking around for somewhere to sit. They spotted a familiar sparkly figure waving to them over the crowd.

"Hey look! Its Chiharo!" Yume called out to Miku over the noise of the cafeteria.

They walked over to Chiharo's table, and sitting next to Chiharo was a boy they had not seen before. As they sat down Chiharo introduced them.

"Hey Miku! Yume! This is my boyfriend Shiro Tenshi!" She said grinning hugely. She looked up at the boy, who was quite a bit taller than she was. He had soft silver eyes and silver-white hair, with hair that fell between his eyes, with some bigger chunks that framed his face, but only fell to about his nose. It reminded Miku of Luka's hair.

"Shiro, these are my friends Miku and Yume," She said pointing to each of them in turn.

"Nice to meet you," Shiro said in a gentle voice.

"I didn't know you had a boyfriend Chiharo!" Yume exclaimed in excitement.

"Well, we've only been dating for a couple of weeks, but I think he has got to be the best guy around," Chiharo said blushing ever so slightly. She seemed to remember something all of a sudden, "Miku, there are rumors going around that you and Kaito are going out!" She exclaimed with a wicked little smirk on her face.

Miku turned bright red. "No we are not," she said squirmily. Everyone started to laugh. Miku's face slowly turned back to its normal shade, and they talked of other things as they finished their dinner.

Miku and Yume parted ways outside of the cafeteria, Yume said she forgot her favorite hip-hop CD in the dance room they had been using.

Miku walked towards the dormitory, when she felt a presence behind her. She turned abruptly, and jumped slightly as she saw Kaito standing behind her. He had a silly grin on his face.

"Hey Miku!" He said as he walked up to her. She looked up at him and returned his smile.

"KAITO!" Miku turned as she heard a female voice calling out. Running up to them was a girl with floor length white-blonde hair, mostly loose but with a couple of braids coming over her shoulders. As she came closer Miku thought she recognized her… She was wearing a short pink skirt, a V-neck tank top that looked kind of like a vest, with a loose off the shoulder T-shirt over it.

The girl was almost to them, and Miku finally realized who it was. It was IA, the famous Pop-Idol.

IA walked right up to Kaito took his hand and stood on tip-toe to kiss his cheek.

Miku's jaw dropped.

"Are you coming? I was looking everywhere for you!" IA said in a fake pouty voice. "I thought you forgot all about me!" IA made big ol' puppy dog eyes.

Miku wanted to cry and throw up. At the same time. Were IA and Kaito dating?!

IA suddenly seemed to notice Miku. "Hi, I need to take Kaito with me, okay?" IA said, winking at Miku. Kaito looked as if he wanted to say something, but Miku didn't give him a chance. She turned and ran as fast as she could all the way to her room. Never once looking back. By the time she got to her room tears were streaming down her cheeks. She locked her door and fell against it, sobbing.
