A/N:
Hey guys. So, here's the new update. I made a note here to tell you guys, this scene is when they were chatting so, yeh. This is what they've been talking about. Since I didn't know how to start this chapter so this was my solution
anyways. Enjoy!
Hino Kahoko's PoV
"So, How have you been? I haven't heard from you since... you know..." Tomo-chan said, trailing off from her speech. I just brushed it off so that I won't worry her.
"I'm fine. I mean, it wasn't easy at first. Even though I left, the incidents always keep appearing in my dreams. I almost thought that I would never have a decent sleep. It was always a sleepless night for me in the first few months. I would always wake up crying. But, I met new friends, who accepted me even though they didn't know me that much..." I smiled as I took something blue from my desk as I remembered how Mio and Nao first approached me.
"Okay class. Please group yourselves into three." The teacher ordered. I looked around, it seemed like everyone had already found their own groups.
"U-uhm... do you have a-" I asked the girls who were beside me but they cut me off
"No. Sorry, we're already complete." She said. I looked down and walked away, but I heard their conversation when they thought I couldn't hear them anymore
"She's got a lot of nerve.."
"I know right? I mean, she's so strange. She's always alone."
"I bet she won't find a group. No one would want someone like her."
I was close to crying when a loud sound that sounded like someone slapping. I looked around and saw a brunette and a black haired girl standing in front of the three who were talking about me. The one, who seemed like the leader among the three, had her cheeks red. While the black haired girl still had her hands up, indicating that she was the one who slapped her. Everyone in the room fell silent as they looked at them.
"You should think about how others would feel before you say something. You say that no one would want someone like her. That she's always alone. Well, at least she's not like you!" Kobayashi-san, the girl with black hair said.
"That's right! Hino-san has never done anything to you! So why would you talk about her like that! You're so cruel!" Takato-san, the brunette said as she nodded. Everyone in the room started murmuring. The three girls bowed their heads. Takato-san and Kobayashi-san went to me and smiled at me warmly.
"W-why..." I said
"Hm?" Takato-san asked
"Why would you... defend me? You don't even know me that well..." I said as tears started to form in the corner of my eyes.
"Because we know... that you have a kind heart." Kobayashi-san said.
"We also know that... you're suffering right now." Takato-san said. A tear fell from my eyes as they widened
"How...?"
"Hino-san, we've see you cry everyday. At the roof top, when you think you're alone." Kobayashi-san
"It's also in your eyes. Sadness, pain, sufering... and we want to remove that." Takato-san.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked, tears were now running endlessly from my eyes.
"Because... we want to be your friends, Hino-san." Kobayashi-san said.
"So, would you like to be friends, Hino-san?" Takato-san said as she smiled warmly. And... for the first time since that incident happened... I smiled.
"Hai!" I said as I nodded. Takato-san and Kobayashi-san smiled at me.
"Then, call me Mio. And that's Nao." Kobaya- I mean, Mio-chan said as she pointed at Nao-chan.
"Then call me Ha- ah, Kahoko." I said.
"And since then... we've been the best of friends..." I said, smiling as I looked at the music box which was given to me by them. I was surprised to hear sobbing sounds, I turned to look at Tomo-chan who was crying buckets now.
"T-tomo-chan, why are you crying?" I asked
"B-because! I'm sorry I wasn't there when you needed me the most!" She said as she jumped on me and hugged me tightly
"T-tomo-chan! C-can't breathe!" I said as I gasped for air. She let me go as she wiped her tears, she chuckled.
"Sorry, I guess I got a little too carried away... But, Haruka, What are you going to do now?" She asked.
"What do you mean?" I asked, even though I already know what she's talking about.
"With Starish. I mean, do you plan to avoid them until you go back to Seiso?" She asked. I sighed as I stood up and walked near the window.
"I don't know." I said as I looked at the scenery outside.
"You can't not know! I mean I know that you know what you plan to do, so let me know! 'Cause I won't let you go back to Seiso knowing that you didn't fix your strained relationship with them, you know?" She said swiftly.
"I know... But, it's just that..."
"Just what? Come on Haruka." Tomo-chan said.
"I don't want them to have another fight! I'm afraid history might repeat itself! that's why!" I said as I sat on the floor. Tomo-chan flinched when she saw me on the verge of tears.
"Haruka... I'm sure they won't do it again. They already learned their lesson..." She said as she knelt in front of me and looked me in the eye.
"H-how can you be so sure..?" I asked her, trying to stop my tears from coming out again. She gave me a sad smile, it seemed like she was recalling something from her memories
"You should have seen them when you left Haruka.. I've never seen them so... broken." She said, giving me a sad look. I looked up at her, confused
"Broken?" I asked. She nodded
"Yes. As soon as they found out that you left for them, they broke down. It was a very... heart clenching scene. " She said as she wiped off a stray tear.
"I... I don't deserve them." I said.
"What?" She asked me incrediuosly
"I don't deserve them... I'll only hurt them. I don't deserve to be their friend." I said as I looked down.
"N-no! Haruka! That's not what I meant! I-" I cut her off.
"No! I don't deserve them! And now, even my friends from Seiso won't talk to me!" I said.
"Won't talk to you? Why-?" She asked me.
"They think that I lied to them. But... I guess I did... I'm such a bad friend! I always hurt my friends." I said as I cried. Tomo-chan started to panick
"Haruka, that's not true! I mean, you're no a bad friend. I mean , your the best friends someone could ever have. I mean, if your a bad person, then why would the seven of them fall in love with you?" She said. I stopped crying as I frowned at her
"You didn't have to bring that one up." I said as I stood up. Tomo-chan sighed and got up too.
"I-I'm sorry..." She said. I hugged her, that caused her to be surprised
"Haruka-?"
"I'm the one who should be sorry. I do want to make up with them but... I really don't think that I deserve them..." I said as I let her go and smiled a fake smiled.
"Haruka-" I cut her off again.
"Let's go eat. It's dinner time already. And we still have classes tomorrow." I said as I dragged her out of them room.
"I-fine." Tomo-chan said as I let go of her and giggled at her. She smiled at me and giggled along.
Third Person's PoV
Starish, along with everyone from Seiso, walked towards the cafeteria after they put their stuff at their room.
"Uwaahhh~ Amazing! No matter how I look at it, this place is huge!" Hihara exclaimed.
"Senpai... please calm down. People are staring" Tsuchiura said as he sweat dropped. Although, he himself was impressed at the building's structure.
"Tsuchiura-kun's right, Hihara." Yunoki said as he held his cheek
"Eh~~?! But, this place is awesome!" Hihara said as he smiled.
"Well, this place certainly is something.." Kaji said as he looked around.
"He's a lot like Otoya." Syo said as he looked at the red head beside him.
"Eh~~?! Me?" Otoya said as he pointed at himself.
"Ahahaha. Hai, he certainly is like you." Natsuki said as he smiled at him.
"Neh, neh, How many practice rooms does this school have?" Hihara asked suddenly, surprising the Members.
"Oya oya, A little excited are we?" Ren teased as he looked at hihara with an amused expression
"Ahaha, well..." Hihara said as he scratched his head and blushed
"The school has over 50+ practice rooms. Though not all are practice rooms. Since this is an Idol school, some of them are for dance rehearsals." Tokiya explained
"50+?! Now way!" Hihara said loudly. Students they were passing by looked at them. Tsukimori glared at them so they loked away. He sighed. 'Remind me again, why I agreed to this?' He thought to himself. But then, a certain red haired maiden flashed across his mind. He frowned.
"Oi Tsukimori. What's with that sour face?" Tsuchiura taunted as he noticed the blunette's frown
"None of your business." Len said coldly.
"Tch. Ice cube." Tsuchiura muttered to himself, but Len heard him anyway.
"So, How did you guys meet Haruka anyway?" Cecil asked. They stopped when they noticed that the seiso students stopped walking
"Is something wrong?" Hijirikawa asked, noticing the heavy atmosphere that suddenly enveloped them.
"N-nothing. Uhm, we all met because of the Concours." Hihara said as he continued to walk, taking all of them along.
"Oh, that's right. Haru-chan plays the violin now right?" Otoya asked, oblivious to the tension forming in the air.
"I never knew Haruka had interest in Classical. " Syo said.
"But, Haru-chan wore a black uniform that time, right? so that means she's a Gen Ed student. And Tsuchiura-san and Kaji-san too. " Natsuki said as he looked at them.
"Ah, well..." tsuchiura scratched his head.
"Tsuchiura-kun wasn't really a participant at first." Yunoki stated.
"Eh? what do you mean 'at first'?" Ren asked
"Tsuchiura... -senpai... got in.. because of... Kaho-senpai.." Shimizu said, everyone looked at him, while he just walked ahead as he swayed slightly.
"Oi, Is he alright?" Syo asked. They all gasped when he suddenly fell down, Fuyuumi sighed as she went beside him and started shaking him mildly
"S-shimizu-kun, wake up..." She said shyly as she blushed hard, noticing the eyes that were staring at them.
"W-wake...? He's sleeping?" Otoya asked as everyone sweat dropped. Tsuchiura slammed his face with his palm while Tsukimori shook his head while wearing an annoyed expression
"Shimizu-san tends to sleep anywhere he goes, whether voluntary or involuntary." Tsukimori explained while watching Shimizu rub his eyes as he woke up.
"Kawaii~! Right Syo-chan?" Natsuki said as he looked at the bishounen's face.
"What did he mean Tsuchiura-san got in because of Haruka?" Tokiya asked, changing the topic. They continued to walk when Shimizu finally got up.
"Hino-san's supposed accompanist, apparently planned to not appear the day of the first selections. So that she would have no choice but to withdraw from the competition. But things didn't go according to her plan since Hino found out after hearing her conversation. This green haired idiot here decided to be her accompanist at the very last minute." Tsukimori said, everyone looked at him as if he'd grown a second head.
"W-what is it?" He asked, irritated by the staring of his companions.
"I thought Kaho-chan's accompanist was sick that day? I mean, that's what she said right?" Hihara asked. Tsukimori then remembered that only he and Kahoko knew about that, since she covered for the girl's disappearance. He decided to ignore them.
"Never mind, so what did she play?" Syo asked, hiding the irritation he felt for his fellow violinist's rudeness.
"Her piece actually surprised everyone. The theme for that selection was "Opening up", but the piece she played was "Tristesse" by Chopin." Yunoki said
"Eh? Chopin? On the violin? Moreover, Tristesse... a loathe to depart? How is that opening up a path?" Hijirikawa asked. Knowing that Chopin was known for his piano pieces.
"That's true. But Kaho-chan made it different. Tristesse was known for it's beautiful, but sad tune, I don't know how but... She seemed to have turned the tunes around." Hihara said.
"Turn the tunes around?" Ren asked.
"I think what Hihara-senpai means is, that she somehow made the piece somewhat happy. Although I didn't get to see her perform, since I transferred when the selections was over." Kaji said.
"But that doesn't explain how he got in." Cecil stated.
"Well, they considered his talent since he was able to play perfectly even though it was sudden. So they took him in." Hihara explained cheerfully.
"Is that so?" Hijirikawa said.
"H-hai..." Tsuchiura answered.
"W-where are we?" Tsukimori asked when he noticed that the ceilings have changed and were now higher, designed with expensive looking chandeliers. 'I thought we were going to the cafeteria?' He thought to himself.
"The cafeteria. Where else?" Syo taunted, Tsukimori just shot him a glare.
"T-this is the cafeteria? Sugoi~!" Hihara exclaimed cheerfully, suddenly, a loud growl was heard.
"What was that?" Tokiya asked.
"Ah..." They all turned to look at Hihara who was blushing.
"That was my stomach... I'm hungry!" He said as he grinned.
"S-senpai..." Tsuchiura said as he sweat dropped.
"Ahahaha, well. Were here now. You all brought your cards right?" Otoya said as he showed them his card. Everyone nodded as they followed him to fall in line.
"One hamburger please." Kahoko ordered. Following Tomochika after taking her meal.
"So, where are we going to sit?" She asked.
"mmmm... Ah! Look! There's Otoya and the others! Oh? Your friends too! Everyone!" Tomochika called out.
"Eh?!" Kahoko muttered in surprise as she looked at where her friend was waving at.
"Oh? Tomo-chan! Haru-chan! Sit here!" Natsuki said as he waved back. Kahoko looked at Starish then her Seiso friends.
"U-uhm, Tomo-chan, I forgot, I- I have to do something! I-I'll just see you back at the room! Bye!" Kahoko said swiftly before running out the door.
"Eh? Wait, Haruka!" Tomochika called her, but she just kept running.
"What's wrong? Where did Haruka go?" Cecil asked. Tomochika sighed as she shook her head, while giving them a sad look.
"She's avoiding us, isn't she?" Tokiya asked, his fist clenching
"Yeah, I guess you could say that." She answered as she looked at the door where Kahoko left.
"Eh? Why?" Otoya asked.
"Haruka... She said she's afraid that history might repeat itself. that you guys might fight again because of her... And she also thinks that she doesn't deserve to be you friend." She explained.
"No way..." Natsuki said sadly.
"And, I think they also added to the reason." Tomochika said as she pointed at the Seiso students.
"Why would you say that?" Hijirikawa asked.
"Why don't you ask them?" Tomochika said while glaring at them accusingly. They all avoided their eyes when Starish looked at them questioningly.
"She lied to us..." Tsuchiura said while looking down
"Oh? Got into a little fight with the Lady, I see.."Ren said as he crossed his arms.
"Why would you think that-" Otoya said but was cut off when Tokiya held his shoulder as he shook his head
"Otoya... Leave them be. It's none of our business. They should fix it themselves. " He said.
"Tokiya is right. We have other things to worry about right now." Hijirikawa said
"That's right. We have to think of a way for Haruka to accept us again." Syo said as he wore a determined face.
"Hai hai, but for now. Let's just eat. We'll discuss iot on the way back." Nastuki said as he ushered everyone to sit at the table.
Meanwhile, Kahoko ended up at the Lake. Where she cried her heart out.
"I need to go back. Tomo-chan must be worried about me." She said as she stood up and walked towards their room. She ate her food when she finally calmed down.
"So, What should we do?"
Kahoko stopped walking when she heard familiar voices behind her. She hid behind a pillar. 'Cecil-kun?' she thought
"I don't have a clue." Natsuki said honestly.
"We need to earn back her trust..." Hijirikawa said while thinking
"Her...?" Kahoko whispered to herself.
"Hey! I know! come here for a minute guys!" She heard Otoya's voice then, whispers that she didn't understand. She just heard words like 'class' , 'speaker' and 'sing'. Other than that, nothing.
"Oh! That's a good plan you got there Ikki." Ren said as he smiled.
"So, do we do it?" Cecil asked
"Yes, Let's do it. I'm sure she'll like it." Tokiya answered.
"YOSHA~! Let's dot it!" Syo said energetically.
"Then, Let's go back to out rooms and start preparing. We'll do it tomorrow." Hijirikawa said. When Kahoko was sure that everyone was gone, She sighed.
"Spying is a bad habit you know."
"Eek!" She suddenly squealed. She looked at the person who said that and recognized the four men who stood next to her.
"A-ai-senpai? and the rest of Quartet night... What are you doing here?" I asked them
"Tch! We were given the burden of training your little friends." Ranmaru, has spiky silver hair. He has heterochromatic eyes, his right eye is purple and his left eye is silver, and pale white skin said irritably
"Haru-chan, your hair is longer." Reiji, He hasa man with light brown skin, normal complexion stated as he looked at her closely
"A-ah... You haven't changed, Reiji-senpai.." Haruka said, blushing slightly at her senpai's closeness.
"Reiji, You're making her uncomfortable." Camus, a man with long-length blonde hair. He has ice blue colored eyes and has a pale complexion said
"Mou, Camus, your just jealous." Reiji taunted as he hugged Kahoko, making her blush
"R-reiji-senpai..." She muttered, trying to wriggle out of the brunette's grasp.
"You-" Camus snapped,
"Reiji, Let her go. " Ai, a tall boy with cyan eyes and cyan blue shoulder-fastened hair in a ponytail ordered.
"Psh, you guys are no fun." Reiji said as he let go of a steaming Kahoko.
"W-wait, so you're going to look after them? Like you did with Starish?" Kahoko asked. Quartet Night, the name of their group. They became Starish's Senpai when they were just beginning. Although they were supposed to teach them, they just ended up looking after them. Siunce they said that an Isol should learn to look after himself.
"Hai. Oh, we need to go. See you, Haru-chan!" Reiji said as they walked away.
"Why were they here in the first place?" Kahoko said as she entered her room.
Hino Kahoko's PoV
"Haruka! Where have you been? I was worried about you!" Tomo-chan said when she saw me.
"Ah, Sorry.. I kind of ran into Reiji-senpai and the others..." I said as I laughed nervously
"Eh? Reiji? You mean Quartet night? Why are they here?'' She asked confused. Inside, I was relieved she didn't ask me more about my disappearance a few hours ago.
"Ah, they said they were here to train the concour participants." I answered.
"Oh, Well good luck for them. Anyway, Let's go to sleep. We still have classes tomorrow." She said as she slumped on her bed. I quickly changed my clothes and lied on my own bed. Letting my sleepiness take over.
The next day...
It was raining cats and dogs today. I sighed. The rain seemed to reflect my mood. Gloomy.
"Haruka, Come one. What are you still standing there for?" Tomo-chan said, pulling me inside.
"But-" I stopped when we entered the room. All eyes were on us, or rather, me. I looked down, letting Tomo-chan pull me. We were in the S-class. since Tomo-chan and the others have debute, they were moved here. While we, since were guests, we were also placed here.
"Why am I stuck with you?" I heard a familiar voice say. I looked up and saw Tsukimori-kun and Tsuchiura-kun enter the room while glaring at each other, followed by Kaji-kun
"I believe that's my line." Tsukimori-kun said coldly
"Ah, Good morning, Hino-san." Kaji-kun said happily as he was me. The two looked at me surprised then looked away. I looked down, closing my eyes tightly as I hoped that the tears won't spill.
"Alright, all of you sit down. Class is about to start." Hyuuga-sensei said as he entered the room.
"Eh? Are there no introductions?" Kaji-kun asked confused.
"You're from Seiso Right?" Hyuuga-sensei asked
"Ah, hai, I'm Aoi Kaji." He said as he bowed.
"Well, Kaji. This isn't a normal school. And your arrival has been announced the day before. So no Introductions are needed." He said as he stood in front o the table. Kaji-kun, Tsukimori-kun and Tsuchiura-kun just went to sit at the vaccant seats. I lloked around the room and noticed something
"Eh, Sensei, Where are Otoya-kun and the others?" Tomo-chan asked, noticing it too.
"Ah, them? Well, just wait and see." He said as he sat down
"Oi, sensei, I thought class was supposed to start?" One student asked
"Just shut up and wait for it." Sensei said as he crossed his arms. Wait for what? Suddenly, a snap was heard from...
"The speakers?" I said as I looked at the the corners.
"Uhm, testing, testing." A voice said. That voice...
"Otoya-kun?"
"Oi, Otoya, It's turned on." Tokiya-kun's voice said.
"Ehhh!? Ah, I mean.*ehem* Good morning everyone! " Otoya-kun said
"Sensei, what's going on?" Tomo-chan asked.
"Those idiots suddenly came over last night and begged for this. " He said as he smiled. I continued to listen to Otoya-kun's voice
"Haru-chan, I know you can hear us. So please listen to this. We want you to recall everything we've been through. So, here." He said. there was a short silence before a guitar was heard along with Otoya-kun's voice...
"Futari de tsukuridasu
Kono melody ni nosete
Mirai ga kyou ni kasanaru yo
Kawarazu gyutto
Kono furezu (PHRASE)mitai ni

"T-this is..." I said, speechless. Brand new melody. It was the first song I composed after entering the academy. It was for our Audition contest.. I felt hot tears stream down my face as I continued to listen
"Tsumazui chatari koron dari shite

Ittoki-kun... You were there for me when I was under the rain. not minding that you got yourself wet by trying to find me. You cheered me up when everyone thought that I was a fake...

As the song came to it's end, Otoya-kun's voice was heard again
"Haru-can, you always amazed me with your sincerity... And I want you to remember the happiness you, no, we felt when we found out that we passed that time... Well, that my say." his voice said, suddenly, the door opened. Revealing Otoya-kun, he walked up to me and smiled as he handed me a red rose. It had a letter n tact to it,
"I" It said. Yes. I. the letter. I was about to ask him what that was for when another voice was heard
"Haruka, you always worked hard to prove to everyone you were real, I want you to hear this song again..." Masato-kun's voice was heard this time, followed by the piano,
"Namida wo fuite itsuka ugokidasu kara
Yukidoke no you ni kirari mirai hikaru
Yume wa itsudatte Knocking on the mind kanjite
I recognized the song.. It was the song he sang for me when I couldn't play the piano...
Knocking on the mind.
"Asphalt no sumi de tsumetai yami ni furuetatte
Osorenaide Pure heart
Itsudatte hana wa ue wo muiteru
Donna toki mo wasurezu ni ite hoshii
Sono egao wa taiyou da

Tomoshibi no you ni Knocking on the mind atatakai
Fuyu no keshiki sae mo haru no iro ni mieru hodo ni
Sekai ga ima Changing
Hajimete uta ga kaze ni tonda"
Masato-kun... You helped me recover from the trauma I've had when the class doubted me... You taught me how to play the piano again when I thought I couldn't... You pulled me out from the darkness I felt back then.
"Kagiri aru kotoba ja tarinai kara
Hito wa fureyou to suru no ka?
Kokoro no damu kara afureru you ni

Shinjiru koto wo wakeaou"
"Haruka... You were the reason why I entered the music industry. Why I pulled it through. And I want want you to know that." Masato-kun said. The door opened again and revealed Masato-kun as he handed me a blue rose. This time, the letter "H" was present. I looked at Masato-kun and Otoya-kun as I opened my mouth to question them, but another voice came in.
"Yo, Little lamb. I remember doing this before as my homework so that I won't be expelled by Ryuya-san." Ren-kun said
"Tch! Arrogant little bastard." Hyuuga-sensei said but smiled.
"So, remember this song. The song that you desperately looked all over the school for my sake,, The song that I tore apart but you put back. That song that made me unlock the passion that I kept inside my heart.." He said, as his saxophone was heard, followed by his voice,
"Yuuhi ga mau kyoushitsu de kimi dake wo miteita
Hoshi yori mo kirameita sono hitomi ni Knock out"
This is the song he wrote for the assignment before.. the one he had to pass or else he would have been expelled..
Believe heart.
"Hajimete dayo tatoeru nara Bitter na chocolate mitai

Kimi no tame dake iu sa ore no ai no Last Phrase…
Mou one shot kimetai ze kono darts no saki wa
Iikai ready? Mannaka da yo hi wo tsuketa bassa"
Ren-kun... From our very first meeting.. You've helped me since then. That time at the gate, when I wasn't allowed to take the exam... I was very terrified when I thought that you were going to be expelled.. And it made me happy to know that you did your best to cancel that..
"「Kissu dake ja owarenai」 Better na serifu dakedo

Without any other word, the door opened as Ren-kun entered with a cream colored rose...
"Jinguji... You're too lazy for your own good." Masato-kun said as he looked at Ren-kun sharply
"And you're too strict for your own good." Ren-kun said as he walked towards mew and handed the rose as he winked at me. When I was about to take the rose, I was surprised when he suddenly leaned down and kissed my cheek.
"You-"
"Oi Ren! No fair." Otoya-kun exclaimed.
"Will you two calm down, that was just a greeting from me. Right, Lady?" He said as he winked at me. I just blushed and looked at the rose. I didn't notice that Tsukimori-kun and Tsuchiura-kun were glaring at Ren-kun
"R..." I said aloud.
"Yo, Haruka! Do you remember that time when you found out that I was a fan of Hyuuga-sensei? And I told you that he was like a hero for me, since he gave me confidence. You agreed as you said that you were a fan of Hayato. I was really happy when I found out that there was someone who understood the admiration I felt. This was the song that I came up with that time.." Syo-kun's voice said.
"Sajin kemuru sekai kouya no saihate
Kokoro ga atsuku moete Burning shot"
Otokogi Zenkai Go! Fight!... His song for Hyuuga-sensei back then...
"Dare mo tomerarenai kono omoi wa
Kobushi e to kawatta
Namida kirari hoshi mo kirari
Lalala uta de iyasu yoru mo aru
Dakedo heart [haato] ga hoete iru
100[hyaku] ja dame sa 1000% iku ze
Dare mo tatsu na ore no mae ni wa nani wo suru ka wakaranai kara
Ikarino yakedo wo
Owa setakunai ze… !
Hyaku oku aru kono sora no shita
Mamoru asu ga mune ni areba
Mayowazu sakebe yo
Otokogi zenkai Let's Go Fight!
Jibun rashiku ikiro koukai nai you
Yuusha yo rekishi tsukure Shining soul
Ai wo buki ni kaete hashiridasou
Yoake e to mezashite
Mirai kirari asahi kirari
Ulala uta ga tomoshibi ni naru sa
Soshite honoo ni kaeru'nda
100 [hyaku] ja dame sa 1000% [sen paasento] hazero
Syo-kun, I was happy at that time too... We felt the same way for our idols... Our heros... Even though everyone says you look small and cute... you have a big heart...
Tomo ni ikou ore to issho ni kaze ni nareru chikara ga aru sa
Toushi to yuuki de
Saa kabe wo yabure
Inazuma yori tsuyoi negai ga
Onore no michi tsukuru hazu sa

Otokogi zenkai Let's Go Fight!
Dare mo tatsu na ore no mae ni wa nani wo suru ka wakaranai kara
Ikari no yakedo wo

Mamoru asu ga mune ni areba
Mayowazu sakebe yo
Otokogi zenkai Let's Go Fight!
Seigi ga subete sa
Otokogi zenkai Let's Go Fight!"
"Do you remember that song... Haruka?" Syo-kun's voice asked, before he entered the room carrying a pink flower. He grinned at me as he handed me the rose with a letter S.. But there was a soft blush on his cheeks.
"Way to go, muchkin." Ren-kun teased
"S-shut up! I can't believe I revealed to the whole school that I was a fan of Hyuuga-sensei..." I heard Syo-kun mutter.
"Haruka!" I flinched as a sharp voice emerged from the speaker.
"Crap! It's-" Syo-kun said as he dashed out of the room.
"Satsuki..." I mumbled.
"How dare you run away! You're not being true to your self! Listen to this song! This song that I sang for Hayato before!" He shouted through the speaker.
"Zaratsuita Shadow minds kurui sou na hodo
Who am I? Michibi ite yami no tsukiyo"
Orion de shout out... the song's lyrics pierces through my heart. I feel like I'm being stabbed.
"Kokochi ii Dark wind mabushikute Shining sky
Soredemo asahi e to kogareru
Kage to hikari ore to omae chikazuiteku
Real to Fake ga towareteru
Black? White? Nazeka? Nazeka? Kokoro ga

Tsuyoku moete iru yozora no orion annafuuni
Haato no honoo no omomuku mama ikireba ii
Zen'aku to gotaku narabe nayami tsukuseba ii sa

Natsuki-kun... Even if you are Satsuki or Natsuki... It doesn't matter to me... I know you wouldn't do anything to harm me... Because deep inside.. Is the Kind hearted Natsuki-kun I know..
"Nukumori ga Empty yoi no kuchibiru yo
Where is "ai"? dakishimete yoake made wo

" Now Haruka! Do you- Oh? Syo-chan, what are you doing here?" I heard Natsuki-kun's soft voice.
"Shut up! Now let's go!" We heard Syo-kun shout.
"But-"
"No buts!" Syo-kun cut off. A few minutes later, Syo-kun entered the room all sweaty with Natsuki-kun in tow. Natsuki-kun went in front of me as he handed me again, a Rose. It's another S, but the color is dandelion..
"My princess.. Can you hear me?" I looked at the speaker, I recognized the voice as Cecil-kun's, and only he calls me princess...
"My princess... I said it before that the Muse's lives in your music. And said that I could sing your songs better than Starish. And yet, because of you, I am now part of them... this song... was when you first met me in my current form.." He said.
"Current form? What is he talking about?" Syo-kun asked loudly.
"tsukikage no Sea watatte oide
sono te ni ima ai ga mezameru kara"
Eternity Love... This was in my dream... back then at the principal's private Island
"towa o utau shiosai no koe
zutto ANATA sagashi tsudzuketeta
meguri au unmei o daite
kono sekaijuu kara ai no uta o atsume

WATASHI wa tada ANATA no tame

madoromi no Veil matou hanayome
kioku no sora hane o kazashi ikou
haruka mirai mata deau darou
owari no nai yume ga tsutau kara"
Cecil-kun... Even though you didn't like them at first.. You eventually got together with them.. If it wasn't for you advice back then, Starish wouldn't have been born..
"ikusen no bara yori mo saite
ikuman no hoshi no uta yori kirameite
utsukushii ANATA e to chikaou
hidamari no you shinjitsu o sotto
terashi tsudzukute yuku to
haha naru ginga e to toumei na fune ukabe tabi he deyou
meguri au unmei o daite

WATASHI wa tada ANATA no tame
umareta "mamoribito" to"
"My princess... I first entered this academy to be beside you... I never had an intention of becoming an Idol... But as I stepped foot here.. I got to experience having friends... And singing your music along with them..." Cecil-kun entered the room as he gave me a green rose with the letter A. He took my hand and kissed it lightly.
"Oi! Cecil! You too?!" Otoya-kun exclaimed again. I avoided their gazes as I looked outside. It's still raining.. Just like that time when I found Tokiya-kun singing beside the lake... Wait... there are six of them here.. So that means-
"Haruka..." Another voice came out
"Tokiya-kun..." I whispered
"Haruka... You were my hope back then, when I was slowly losing my grasp on singing. You always came back even though I would push you away.. Now you're the one pushing us away... You said before that... I was the reason why you came into the Academy... That it didn't matter if it was me or Hayato who sang it... but because it was my song... You kept that secret and risked everyone's trust... This song was.. when you heard me before... beside the lake... the starting point for you..." He said. He couldn't mean...
"Ah… Kimi dake ni todoke
Kono kaze no oto yo Feeling heart…"
Tears quickly made their way down my cheeks as memories flashed through my mind... The song that started this all.. The song that saved me from the verge of fainting back then... Nanairo no compass
"Mou nakanakute ii yo sono mama de ii
Sora wo mite Ah… My sweetest love
Blue… aoku kagayaku hoho wo tsutau sono shizuku
Rise… shitte ita kai? Asu e no hikari dato
Truth… kimi wa tabun ne jibun wo mada yoku shiranai
Sono namida wa kitto kimi wo michibiku niji ni naru
Nagai tabi ni kogoeru nara
Ah… uta de atatamete ageru yo"
When I found out that you, Tokiya-kun, were Hayato himself, you left me confused... But then, I also found out that.. You did that because of your desire to sing.. I was touched by the fact that.. You were willing to give up everything so that you could sing... And I was really happy that.. You became a part of Starish...
"Kimi ga negau koto no zenbu ga hoshi ni naranai kamoshirenai
Dakedo shinjiru yume de areba
Ikusen aru 「yozora no ichiban kirameku hazu no houseki」 saa
Think… oboeteru kai? Kaerimichi no yuuyake wo
Yes… hashai de ita mirai chizu hirogete
Dream… itsukara darou? Mune ga shimetsukerareru yo
Terasareru kokoro chikuri otona no aji datta
Hitori kiri ja dekinai koto mo
Ah… Kimi to norikoete ikitai
Kimi ga egao ni naru koto naraba kami-sama ni datte uso wo tsuku
Ai to yoberu kurai ni suki dakara
Issho ni kite hoshii yo 「Na mo naki monogatari」 e to Fly to sky
Mou nakanakute ii yo sono mama de ii
Kimi wo mamorasete hoshii'n da
Futari shinjiru yume de areba
Ano hi no taiyou yori zettai ni sugoku kirei na
Nanairo wo furaserareru… sekai ni"
I was surprised that when I opened my eyes, I saw a dark blue rose in front of me. I looked up and saw Tokiya-kun's face. I slowly took the rose as I looked at the letter... T.
"T-this is..." I stuttered as I laid the roses down and arranged them.
S-T-A-R-I-S-H
It spelled out.
"Haruka... Starish wouldn't have existed if not because of you..." Otoya-kun said as he smiled at me.
"Your idea gave birth to who and what we are now." Masato-kun said.
"Lady, Your heart changed us all for the better." Ren-kun said as he winked at me again
"You understood us more than anyone." Syo-kun added.
"And accepted us for who we are." Natsuki-kun smiled at me.
"You were the stem for all of us." Cecil-kun said.
"Haruka... please... Forgive us for what we did in the past.." Tokiya-kun said, as they all looked at me pleadingly. Their eyes full of pain and long. I sat there speechless... and when I finally regained my composure..
"Haruka!"
"Haru-chan!"
"Wait!"
I heard them shout as I ran off. I kept running until I reached the outside of the building. Not minding the rain.
"Haruka!" Tokiya-kun said as he grabbed my arm and stopped me. We reached the lake were we used to hang out. Why did my feet bring me here out of all places...?
"Why..." I whispered
"Huh?" Syo-kun asked.
"Why are you doing this! I hurt you before and I'll just keep hurting you! I don't deserve to be called your friend! I don't deserve any of this!" I said as I sat down on the muddy grass while crying.
"Lady..." Ren-kun muttered
"You should hate me! You should despise me! because... I always bring you trouble... I always-" I was cut off when Otoya-kun suddenly shouted
"That's not true!" I looked up at him
"Yeah! We're the one you should hate! We were the ones who always hurt you!" Syo-kun said
"No! I would never..." I countered as I looked down.
"Haruka, that's just how we feel..." Masato-kun said, making me look at him.
"We could never.. Bring ourselves to hate you..." Cecil-kun said
"W-why..." I asked again.
"Because..."
"We're your friends Haruka. And we always will be." They all said in unison as they smiled at me. I looked at them with shock... The rain stopped. And the sun was slowly making it's way through the clouds.
"Haruka... It's time to forget the past, and start again.." Tokiya-kun said as he offered a hand out for me. I looked up at him... And slowly smiled as I weakly reached out for his hand. He pulled me up, but didn't let go. Then I felt more hands join in. I looked at everyone and they were smiling at me. I looked up the sky and saw that it was now clear... The storm has ended... and the rainbow crosses proudly and beautifully across the sky...

Sorry it's late. I had other things to attend to.
