Rin put on his tie and tried to tie it but he couldn't. He gave a annoyed sigh and got mad at the tie.

I hate these ties.

"Damn it!" He walked to the bathroom, he opened the mirror and looked for a bobby pin but couldn't.

He gave a sigh and closed the mirror, he looked up and saw a woman's reflection.

She stared at him, she held a photograph in her hands.

He looked at her closely and knew who it was by the dreams.

That's...Akemi.

"Hey!" He turned around to face her but she disappered.

Akari stood in front of the mirror, she stared at her reflection.

Her reflection changed, her long white hair changed to black and blood was on her cheek but her bright blue eyes turned into blood red.

Akari gasped at herself and touched her face. She closed her eyes and shooked her head.

She opened her eyes and looked at the mirror, her reflection was back to normal.

Her white long hair, bright blue eyes but the blood on her cheek.

Wha...H-how? This...can't happen.

Her front door knocked, she looked at the bathroom door.

She grabbed the tissues and wiped off the blood, she walked out the door to the living room.

"Daring! It's me!" Akari stared at the door.

Pablo.

She opened the door and the man stood on the other side, he held his arms up.

"Daring! You look like you been sick. Are you alright?" He looked at her up and down, Akari looked behind him.

Luka was staring at her.

"I just woke up from a nap when you knocked on my door." He saw her cheek bleeding.

"Then what happened to your cheek?" She touched her cheek and saw the blood on her finger.

"I-I fell down the stairs as I was going to open the door." Pablo gave a look at her and smiled.

"Just glad that you aren't hurt anywhere. Come on, we must get to the acdemy and we'll fix it." Luka looked away from Akari and hold the door for her.

Akari turned off the lights and locked the door.

"Did you really fall down the stairs?" Akari lowered her eyes. "Or was it a demon?"

She didn't say anything to her, she walked away from her.

"Come on Luka! We must get there before it starts!" Luka looked down and saw a tiny spot of blood on the steps.

She's awaking.

At the Acdemy in the audiotorium

Rin walked in the audiotorium, it was filled with people that he seen at the festival. They all wore fancy clothes and some wore robes.

"Look at all of the people that came!" Sheimi said as she walked to Rin and everyone else.

"Who are they?" Rin asked them.

"Supposedly, they came to see the concert." He looked at the people.

Did they...came for Akari. She must be nervous about this.

"They came from all around the world to see her. This is the first time for her." Luka and Shura stood behind everyone.

"How did you get here?!" Rin yelled at them.

"I'm going to check on everything." Luka walked away from them, Shura looked at Rin.

"You should go check on her too." Shura whispered to Rin, he started to blush.

"I won't do that!" Shura strugged.

"Fine, it's your call. But you might not know if she's really nervous and needs some support." Rin gave a look at her.

She walked away from him and to the men.

Akari...

"I wonder where's Akari?" Rin looked up at Sheimi.

"Yeah, but she's never came to the concert." Rin lowered his eyes, he saw little kids running around.

Wait.

He saw the little kids that were at the pond, they were playing and they looked up. They ran past Rin and to the door.

"Kari! Kari!" They said outloud, Rin turned to his left and saw Akari.

She was smiling at them, Rin started to blush.

She's...beautiful.

She had her long hair in a bun, she wore a green dress. She looked up at Rin.

He was blushing red when she saw him.

"Akari! You're here!" They told them. She looked at the group.

"Yeah."

"But you never come to the concert! Why now?" She looked at the kids and Rin.

"I came for the kids." Rin's eyes lowered.

Why do I feel like this? All because she said that she came for the kids? Am I jealous?

Akari looked at Rin with a look, she looked down at the kids.

"Kari! Come play with us!" She smiled at them.

"Sure." She walked away from Rin and to the place where the kids were playing with toy cars.

"It seems that you are a little jealous of the kids." Shura told Rin.

"No..." He looked away from her.

"Have you even kissed her yet?" Rin blushed.

"W-What?" He looked at her.

"Come on, you and her kissing. You haven't, have you?" He's cheeks turned to bright red, he looked away from her. "You need to, if you don't. Someone else might will."

Rin walked away from Shura, he stood against a wall.

Akari looked at Rin, she stood up and walked to him. She stood in front of him and saw his tie.

It was crooked and messed up with a bobby pin. She gave a sigh.

"Why can't you learn how to tie a tie?" She grabbed his tie and fixed it.

"I'm a idiot, I don't know how okay?"

He stared at her, she looked up at him and back at the tie.

"You're not a idiot, you are just mentally challenged." He chuckled at her.

"That's another way to call someone a idiot."

She buttoned his jacket, she moved her hands down and grabbed his hand.

"You're not a idiot, if you are. You're my idiot." She kissed him on the cheek. He blushed at her.

I'm...her idiot?

She walked away from Rin but her hand was still holding his, he walked beside her as she walked to a woman.

She looked at Akari.

"Oh, it's Akari. Thank you for doing this for the childern." She bowed to her.

"You're very welcome madam." Rin looked at her.

"What are you doing?" He whispered to her. She looked at him.

"People want to thank me for what I am doing for the little kids that have no family and I am very welomed for their thanks." He gave a faint smile at her. "Plus I came here for another reason, I came for you Rin."

He started to blush at her.

Two women walked to Akari, she bowed to her.

"Thank you for what you are doing for these childern and this child." One of them was holding a baby in her arms.

Akari gave a smile to them.

"You're welcome." The woman walked to Akari.

"Do you want to hold her?" Akari looked at the baby, she held out her hands as the woman carefully gave her the baby.

She stared at the baby in her arms, she was wrapped in a yellow blanket.

"She's adorable." The women nodded at her.

Rin looked at the baby and at the women.

"Go on. She's not going to bite you." Rin looked at the baby and walked closer to Akari, she stared at the baby.

The baby was sleeping soundly, Akari rocked her softly.

Akari would make a good mom. Wait, what am I saying? Do I want her to be a mom?

Akari gave the woman the baby back.

"Thank you for letting me hold her." She bowed to the women, the women looked at Rin and held the baby to him.

He shooked his head.

"I-I can't hold a baby. I don't want to hurt her." He held his hands in front of him.

"Come on, she's not gonna bite you." The woman gave Rin the baby, he held her carefully. "You need to put your arm under her head so she won't hurt her head."

Akari put his arm under the baby's head, she smiled at him.

"See? You can hold a baby."

"Yeah, I guess I can." He gave the woman the baby back, Rin and Akari bowed to them and walked away from them.

"I told you." Akari gave a grin at Rin, he took her hand and held it.

She looked at their hands.

"I'm happy that we are together. Really, I am." He told her, she looked up at Rin's eyes and smiled at him.

"I'm happy too." Rin looked down at her lips and was reaching down to them.

"Daring!" He pulled away from her, Pablo was walking to them.

"Hi Pablo. This is-"

"You're Akari's boytoy!" He said outloud.

"Pablo!" Akari said in a whisper tone.

"Sorry, I knew that Akari was right about those eyes!" Rin looked at Akari, she was blushing. "Oh well, we must be going. Come Akari."

Pablo walked to the curtain where backstage was, Akari was walking away from Rin.

"Wait! Akari!" Rin kissed her on the cheek. "Good luck."

Rin ran to the group. Akari smiled at herself and walked away.

Rin sat in the seat, he looked around the crowd.

"I wonder if Akari is going to watch the performance?" Sheimi asked the group.

"She's in it." Rin told them.

"What!" They all said.

I wonder where's Akari? She needs to come out on stage soon.

He looked behind him, he saw the woman with black hair.

Akemi!

The woman walked to the backstage curtain, he stood up and walked to it. He opened it and stood in the dark.

Where am I supposed to go in this darkness?

He felt someone grab his wrist and was being pulled away.

"Hey!" He tried to look at the person's face but it was too dark to see, the hand stopped pulling him.

Rin stood and reached out his hand, he felt a door on his palm. He found the doorknob and grabbed it, he pulled it open and looked in the room.

The room was lit by the mirror's lightblubs and the lamp at the corner, a chair filled with clothes was next to it and a changing screen near it.

I...I think I'm in a dressing room.

He saw someone standing behind the screen, it was a girl with long hair.

That's-

Rin stepped on a shoe and fell on the floor, the girl looked out the screen door.

"Ow..." Rin moaned.

"Rin?" He opened his eyes and saw Akari in a robe standing above her.

"Hey...Akari." He waved at her.

Few seconds later

Rin stood in front of Akari, she was touching his head for a bump.

"No bumps, only a hollow head."

"Hey!" Akari giggled at him. She lowered her eyes at him.

"Rin...Please don't..." He looked at her.

"What is it?" She put her hands on his chest, Rin started to blush a little.

"Please don't take this the wrong way." She put her head on his chest, he was blushing at her.

"Wha? Akari...What are you-" He was stopped by a sound, he looked around the room and the noise was fast and almost loud.

He looked down at Akari, she had her hand where his heart was.

He knew what the sound was. It was his heart beating.

My heart...She's listening to my heart.

Akari had her eyes closed, she listened closely to the steady beat of his heart.

He stared at her, he gave a faint smile.

She looks like a little girl, being held in her dad's arms.

Rin lowered his eyes, he reameber the last time Akari talked about her father.

"My father was the demon Azazel, she made sure that I didn't see him."

Akari never really met her father, did she? She never had a dad in her life.

Akari looked up at Rin, she put her hand on his cheek.

"Rin?" He looked at her.

"I'm sorry." She lowered her eyes. "Can I ask? Why did you listen to my heartbeat?"

Akari started to blush, she looked down from him.

"Well...W-When I-I was a kid, I-I used to listen t-to my mom's heartbeat. I-It helped me calm down, hearing other's hearts beat as they feel." Rin gave a shocked look.

"It's like bitting your nails." She gave a small chuckle. "But mine is the most weirdest, listening to heartbeats? You probably think I'm weird."

She lowered her eyes, he gave a look at her, he grabbed her hand and held it.

"I don't think it's weird, it's your habit. Everyone has one, weird or not. It's your habit." She looked up at him.

"Really?" He gave a faint smile to her.

"Plus, you look cute when you were against my chest." Akari blushed at him.

She's so cute when she's blushing.

The musicians started to get ready and took out their instruments.

"I guess it's almost time for you to get on stage."

"Yeah, I have to get ready." Akari lowered her eyes.

Rin kissed her forehead, Akari gave wide eyes.

"I hope you do great." Rin told her, he walked out of the room and gave a smile.

Akari smiled at herself, she walked to the mirror and looked at herself.

I hope...nothing will happen during the concert.

She looked up at the mirror, she saw another reflection with long black hair and red eyes.

"Leave me alone, not tonight. Just leave." The reflection gave a grin.

"Tonight, will be the night that you will see the true side of hate and the beast inside of the one you love."

Akari lowered her eyes, the reflection disappered from the mirror.

Does she mean? No, she can't. But...

Few mintues later

Rin walked to his seat and sat down.

"Where the hell did you go?" Bon asked him.

"I went to the bathroom." Rin lied to him, he gave a look at him. "What? I have a big bladder."

Bon shooked his head.

"Too much information." Izumo told Rin.

"The concert is starting." Konekomaru told them.

The crowd went silence.

Mephisto walked onto stage, he looked at everyone and gave a small smile.

"Welcome everyone to the 105th True Cross Acdemy Musical Festival. Tonight we are having a performance from our very own student. Please give a round of applause for Akari Sasaki."

Everyone started to clap, the curtains opened.

Akari sat in a crystal chair that had crystal coming out of the top and bottom, she wore a green dress that was long at the bottom.

She had her arms above her head, she started to sing.

"She looks amazing, the dress, her hair and even the makeup." Rin gave a smile to her.

She's so beautiful.

Akari stood up and sang as she stood in front of the stage, Yukio watched her.

"She's amazing, isn't she?" Shura told him.

Yukio's phone rang, he answered it. He became silence.

"What? Now?" Rin looked at Yukio, he stood up and walked to him. "I'll be there."

He hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Rin asked him.

"A demon is loose in the city, it's attacking everyone in it's way." Rin held his sword on his back.

"Let's go."

"You need to stay with Akari, it's too dangerous for you." Yukio told him.

"I want to help, there's a demon out there hurting people. I don't want them to die neither do you." Yukio gave a look to him and Rin stared at him.

Yukio sighed.

"Fine, but Akari needs to know." Akari looked at the back of the stage. Rin and Yukio left the audiotorium, Akari stopped singing as the music stopped.

Everyone clapped to her, she walked down from the stage.

"Where did Rin go?" She asked Mephisto. He looked at her.

"Rin and Yukio went to go after a demon that's attacking in the city." Akari ran out the door, she held her dress up as she ran.

She was out on the street, she looked around her.

"Akari!" She looked up and saw Luka standing on the roof. "Follow me!"

She jumped down from the roof and ran to the bridge, Akari followed her.

I hope Rin isn't going to be hurt.
