A/N: Hi! and I am really sorry for the long wait, here is another bite size chap of an alternative ending to that 'open ending' thing KyoAni pulled. Kumiko is so gay for Reina that she can't hide it and the trumpeter well...she wants a piece of that eupho to whether she knows it or not.

OTrizy: She is as terrible as Kumiko to be honest, at least Kumiko is easier to read.

Syaoran Li Clow: Yup I agree, KumiSuka can burn for all I care, foe me KumiRei is my bae. Thanks for reading.

MakaS0ul: I love Reina because she's a fascinating character to write about that is why I focus on her mostly because we had been for too long in Kumiko's head anyways.

dinnca: Thanks!

VolpineGrinz: You know me, I need fluffy as much as air...or chocolate hehe.

somethingsweet08: Here's a new one, sorry for the long wait.

This time we are into Kumiko's head for a bit, next one will be Reina's pov again.

Enjoy!

Supporting you

I thought my heart was going to break but then I remember that is made of flesh. That time on Mt. Daikichi was the complete opposite of what I thought would happen. But that's not important now. I did say that I was rooting for you.

I lied.

The moment you blurted all those words during the national competition I knew you were crazy enough to lower yourself to the level of a fan girl and I hated it. I wanted to take that ridiculous mask and smash against the ground.

That was not like you at all.

I kept quiet and tried hard to avoid blurting truths in front of you. You treated me like nothing big happened but I knew that things were weird now and my hunch was right when we started drifting apart because even if we hung out, things were tense.

Can you blame me?

The girl of my dreams was in love with our band teacher. It was so ridiculous that, there were times when I questioned myself if this wasn't just a universe's big joke, a karma thing against me.

Kami-sama must hate my guts so bad.

And of course we hung out. We went on outings as friends several times and I had to remind myself every time that you didn't mean anything by holding hands, touching my cheeks or even whispering on my ear sweet confessions.

I was wrong.

One rainy night when I was home alone, you just appeared at my doorstep drenched and with dark circles under your beautiful purple eyes. It was the end of our school year vacation and we haven't seen each other in almost three weeks because I went on a family trip for a couple of weeks while you were with your parents abroad.

Because waiting two more days more was too much for you so, running in the rain all the way to my place was the smartest thing to do, apparently. I let you in and handed you a towel while guiding you towards the bathroom so you could take a warm bath while I made something warm for you to drink and grabbed some clothes for you to wear.

After changing into my clothes we sat across from each other and you just stared at the warm drink in your hands and didn't utter a word and I just decided to give you some space.

For like, six minutes.

After having all the drink in two big gulps, you looked at me with an unreadable expression and I gulped. Knowing you for more than a year had taught me that you can be quite unpredictable most of the time.

And then, you just stood and sat next to me. Next thing I knew you were breathing on my neck and my face burned. You were too close and it is hard to have the girl you love at this distance without messing things up.

For the first time ever I kept my cool.

Maybe it was because of the extra dash of sake that I added to the amazake we just had.

So Reina sat straight and took my face in her hands to force me to look at her. And then she just said seven little words that made me feel warm inside.

I have missed you so much Kumiko.

Seconds later, her forehead was against mine and our lips were so close to each other that I thought I was going to faint. But then, you kissed me on the corner of my lips and yawned exhausted. Knowing you, you hadn't probably gotten much sleep lately so I took you by the hand and led you to my bed.

One thing you might not know is pouty Reina. There are rare occasions when my lovely trumpeter behaves childish and pouts a lot. Like that time she wanted me to play her a song and I had to go home early, or when she wants me to feed her some of my food.

I live for those little intimate moments but hey, we are just friends.

So, Reina plus amazake equals cute and pouty Reina. After I tucked her in, she pouted and begged me to share the bed with her and of course I complied. And let me tell you something, I haven't slept that well since forever. There's something on holding the girl you love while sleeping that makes you feel at peace with the universe and that's Reina for me, my peace.

As I told you before, I will get the girl in the end.

But to run you first need to walk, so baby steps to get to Reina's heart.

A/N: Next chap will be posted sooner, I promise. Review?
