I decided to write another chapter today. There's nothing more to say - I hope that you'll enjoy this chapter!
Teto smiled as Miku jumped around happily in the forest. She played with the birds and sang together with Teto.
"Teto! Come over here!" she said and pointed to a small squirrel.
"I'm coming." Teto was beginning to walk towards Miku, when she heard some noises behind her. She gave Miku a quick apologizing smile and walked towards the bushes.
"Hey, Meiko. What are we going to do?" Rin whispered.
"Just be quiet. Or else, they will hear us." she hissed.
"This will be fun!" Len exclaimed.
"No." Kaito bluntly said.
Suddenly, two crimson eyes were shooting burning glares at the group. Meiko was caught off-guard by Teto's sudden appearance.
"What. Are. You. Doing?" Teto slowly said, with a soft face.
"Eh… just spyin—" Kaito replied. Meiko quickly slapped him on his head.
"Ah, that is nice." Teto smiled. All of them looked like question marks as they stared at Teto.
"What? Is there something on my face? NOW OFF WITH YOU, OR I'LL CALL THE POLICE!" she suddenly screamed at the top of her lungs.
The twins immediately ran back towards the cottage, followed by Meiko who had realized that she wouldn't be able to fight with this woman. Kaito just sat on the ground, staring at Miku. She was still playing with the squirrel, without noticing Teto screaming at some random persons behind her.
"Why are you still here?" Teto asked with a more soft voice.
"Eh?" Kaito said, still staring at Miku. She stopped playing with the squirrel and turned her gaze towards Teto and him.
"Oh, hello." she said. Her voice was beautiful just as herself.
She slowly walked towards Kaito and her ocean-blue eyes met with his sapphire eyes.
He was at a loss of words. Miku smiled as she offered to help him up on his feet. He took her hand and stood up without saying anything.
"T-thanks." he said and then quickly ran back to the cottage.
"What a strange man." Teto said after he left. "Miku, you are always so nice. Why did you help him? He was spying on us!"
"Well… there was something strange about him. I can't put my finger on what it was… but he seemed kind." she explained. Teto frowned and then grabbed Miku's wrist.
"Let's go back, Miku-chan." She said with enthusiasm.
Kaito was gasping for air after his long sprint from the place where he had met Miku. Meiko glared at him when he arrived.
"What took you so long?" she asked.
"Nothing. It was nothing." he answered.
"Like I'm going to believe that." She rolled her eyes. "Oh, my plans were foiled. Now we're back to the start again. How are we going to get money?"
Kaito scratched his head. He had no ideas either. Suddenly, Rin came running towards them with a paper in her hand. Len came after her, holding another paper.
"Look Kaito! They will put up a singing contest in town tomorrow! Rin said.
"And you can still sign up!" Len said.
"And why would we do that?" Meiko eyed the paper that Rin was holding and quickly snatched it from her. Kaito was staring over her shoulders.
"Prize: 10000 Yen." Kaito read.
Meiko snatched the other paper from Len and tried to find a pencil in her pockets. After fumbling around a little, she found a short little pencil and she signed the papers.
"Let's train now, guys. We must win this!" she shouted.
"I think we have a better chance if we enter separately." Kaito suddenly said.
"That's a good idea, Kaito! I'll get you some ice cream when we win!" Meiko said.
Kaito smiled at the thought of ice cream. He hadn't eaten any ice cream for months now. However, there was something other than ice cream on his heart. He could only think of Miku.
The day for the contest had come. Thousands of people were there to watch it and hundreds of people had signed up. The auditions ended with ten people qualifying for the finals, and Kaito, Rin and Len (They entered as a couple) were along the ten persons. Meiko didn't qualify because she was a little drunk and singed the wrong lyrics during the whole song.
Miku and Teto were watching the contest – they had sneaked outside again to have a little fun in town. Miku stared at Kaito every time he appeared on the stage, while Teto was cheering loudly for everyone.
"Hey, Miku-chan? Aren't those twins and that blue-haired freak the people from yesterday?" Teto loudly said, making people stare at her.
"He is not a freak!" she suddenly snapped. Even more people turned towards them. Miku blushed and lowered her voice. "Yes, it's the same person."
"Are you in love, Miku-chan?"
"What? Why are you suddenly asking me that?" Miku snapped again. This time, she received irritated glares from everyone around her. She blushed again and stared down onto the ground. "I hate when people stare at me like that."
The stage was lit up by lights. It was time for the last contestant, Kaito. Miku immediately turned her focus on him, punching Teto's right arm before she could say anything about him or her. His voice made her heart melt.
Kaito kept singing until he came to the chorus. That was when he noticed the ocean-blue eyes in the crowd that were staring at him. He slowly walked off the stage, still singing. Miku stood up, understanding what he was thinking and walked towards him. He outstretched his hand; just like she did the yesterday and she took it just like he did yesterday. They both smiled at each other before singing the chorus together. Kaito slowly closed his eyes, smiled and let her soft voice float in the air. Teto glared at them, surprised. Meiko glared at them too, however, with jealousy.
"Arifureta koigokori ni ima wana wo shikakeru." Kaito sang.
"Wazukana sukima nozokeba…"
"Tsukamaete~" Miku joined in.
They finished the song together and the crowd stood up, filling the room with applauses and cheers. That was when Kaito did something not expected.
He pulled her in for a kiss. And Miku returned it.
Yep, I couldn't wait with the romance, hehe. Everything seems to go nice and happy now, but I will continue to write and not everything will go as expected.
I will also begin to write some other Vocaloid fanfictions (And other categories too), so if you have any suggestions or ideas, maybe even some requests, then please do send me them/put them in your review.
Thank you for reading! I will update as soon as I can.
