Torrent sighed. Great, left behind by a bunch of bloody wankers. He stood up, walking over to one of the Street Fighter machines. Oh well, guess nothing that bad can happen to me, since Kento asked me to stay in the city earlier. I wonder if they'll notice me from the back-

"Cye? What are you doing here?"

Kento looked at Cye, who looked like a deer caught in the headlights. "Cye? Buddy?" he asked again.

Cye snapped out of his shock. "Hey Kento," he said. "What's up?"

Hardrock narrowed his eyes. "You've been spying on us, haven't you?"

"What?! No, of course not!" Torrent said frantically. "After you said to stick around the city, I got some lunch and came here. I've been here for awhile actually." At least it wasn't a complete lie. He had been at the arcade for awhile, though he hadn't been alone when he'd first come with the others.

Kento just stared at him as Saki made her way over. "What's going on?" she asked.

"Nothing," Kento said. He smiled. "Let me introduce you to a friend of mine; this is Cye Mouri."

Saki smiled and perked up. "It's nice to meet you Cye. But if you're a friend, how did I not see you at the hospital when Kento was there?"

Cye relaxed a little, now that someone else had come over to interrupt the previous conversation. "Well, I got a stomach virus the third day Kento was in the hospital, so I figured I shouldn't make anymore visits until I got better," he told her.

"Well that was smart of you then," Saki said. "Most visitors come anyway when they're sick, and it's not so pleasant when the patient gets worse."

"I wouldn't guess so," Cye answered. "I mean, who wants a patient who's just had surgery to go barfing all over the place?"

Kento just rolled his eyes at that, rubbing one of his sides. Cye noticed this and became concerned. "Hey, are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Kento answered. "Why do you ask?"

Cye frowned as Saki looked up at Kento. "Well, I'm asking because you don't look like you feel so well. Are your sides bothering you again?"

"…I guess a little bit, yeah," Hardrock finally answered. He looked at Saki. "I'm sorry, Saki, guess I've worn myself out today."

The girl next to him suddenly had a distressed look on her face. "No, no! It's alright, I probably shouldn't have dragged you out of bed! I know the doctors ordered that you stay in bed for awhile, but when you called me, I thought you were feeling better," Saki sighed. "I'm sorry."

"It's fine," Kento said. "We'll just try another time…that is, if you want to."

Cye just watched as the girl brightened up. "Sure! Just give me a call when you're feeling better."

Kento smiled. "Okay," he simply said. Then he turned to Cye. "I guess the date is over for today. Let's go home."

Cye nodded. "Sure." He then turned to Saki. "It was very nice to meet you."

Saki smiled. "And you as well," she answered. She watched as Cye walked beside Kento, out of the arcade.

"Call me later?"

Kento looked back at her, just before he and Cye exited. "Sure," he said.

Then the duo left.
