(Next day)

Ritsuka was having a good time at school as their maths teacher was absent.

"Guys, lets go to the ground. Teacher is absent today." Said a student happily. Everyone in the class cheered up. Ritsuka's class was the rowdiest class in the school. They broke many rules and sometimes they scare new teachers away so that they can have a free period.

Ritsuka however wasn't like this at all. Yeah, she was very naughty sometimes. But she always apologies to teacher or anyone that is hurt. She doesn't like people getting hurt.

Ritsuka sitting on her desk. She saw everyone getting out of class and going to the ground.

"Hey Ritsuka, lets go outside!" Said Azuna happily.

"Umm no I don't feel like going. You can go. I'll meet to after this period." Said Ritsuka.

"Huh? Ritsuka is that alright?"

"Yes, i just want to be alone right now."

It wasn't a lie. She really liked being all alone. She loved peace. It made her feel like she's free. It was her freedom from her self.

Azuna just nodded and went with other girls.

Ritsuka was left alone. Not that she hated it.

Whenever she sat alone, she sat with her past. She remembered all the things that happened to her in the past.

What was she in the past and what is she now? It made her wonder. She has always hated herself. For not being enough.

Then there was Taichi who was always there whenever she needed him to stay by her side.

He would stay awake all the night so she could sleep peacefully. She remembered every second she has spent with him. They both had feelings for each other but never confessed. Because they were afraid. They knew an angel and a devil can't fall in love. They were afraid that they might lose their friendship too if they confessed. He promised her that no matter what he will never leave her, replace her. But he broke his promise. He left. He left her all alone in this cruel world. She hated herself for trusting him, for falling in love with him.

She looked out side the window. A tear came out of her left eye.

That's what she's always done. Always lose and then cry. No matter how hard she tried she was still weak. They were people who loved her like her mother, Lindo and Azuna. But still something felt missing. She felt somehow empty.

She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't realise four figures entering the class.

" oh look my butterfly is sitting alone." Said a voice.

That made Ritsuka gasped in surprise and look behind her.

Of course, our 'lovely' student council was here.

"Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Said Ritsuka still trying to get out of the shock.

"Thats not our fault. You were the one who was spacing out." Said Mage.

Ritsuka said nothing. Instead she turned her head looking outside again resting her head on her palm.

"This is not the games period. Where's the whole class?" Asked Rem looking around.

"Maths teacher is absent. So everyone went to enjoy their temporary freedom." Said Ritsuka in a monotone.

"You all need a punishment for sure." Said Rem.

"Ohhhh~~ a punishment~~it's giving me shivers." Said shiki.

"There goes my idea of being alone. All thanks to you." Said Ritsuka sarcastically.

Urie came closer to her and and sat in front of her with his 'signature' rose.

"Now now it seems like my butterfly wants to be alone. Why don't we go outside leaving these three here? Or do you-Huh?" Urie looked closely.

"My butterfly, have you been crying?" Asked Urie. That caught everyone's attention. Everyone came at front to look at her.

Ritsuka looked at them, confused." No I wasn't crying."

"Then what's this?" Asked Urie pointing at her left cheek.

Ritsuka raised her hand to touch her cheek.

"Huh? I-I don't know anything."

"What's wrong?" Asked Rem.

"Did something happen?" Asked mage.

Are you hurt?" Asked shiki.

"Is something wrong my butterfly?" Asked Urie.

They all looked very serious.

Ritsuka looked at them. "Everything's fine. I really don't know how did i start crying. But it's alright now I'm fine." She smiled at them.

Everyone smiled at her.

"Thats good."

"So why don't you leave me now?" Ritsuka said. Yeah man, she really wanted some peace.

"Yeah we should leave now. We all are very busy."

Ritsuka looked at them with poker face.

"Yeah, first busy at playing shogi, second busy in sleeping, third busy at wooing girls, fourth busy at cutting himself. You all are very busy."

Four of them looked at her.

"Wow you know us too well." Said mage grinning.

"Ok now. At least that's better than someone sitting alone, looking outside the window, crying herself but has no idea why." Said Shiki.

"Ritsuka glared at them."leave now."

Then the bell rang.

"I think we should leave now." Said Rem.

"Yeah/ bye/bye my butterfly!" Said the trio and four of them went outside.

Then students started coming back. Ritsuka sighed.

(After school)

Ritsuka's POV

School's over. But i went to the rooftop. I didn't want anyone to see me. I looked at my wrist watch. It was late.

I was looking at the sunset. She felt someone standing behind her. I quickly turned and saw Rem standing there.

"Huh what are you doing here at this time?" I asked.

"Shouldn't i be the one asking that?" Shot back Rem.

"I-I just came here to see the sunset." I lied.

Rem looked at me as if i was an idiot. Well at that time i was acting like one.

"What's wrong with you? Your acting very weird." Asked Rem.

"No I'm not." I said turning quickly so i could hide my eyes that was forming tears.

Then suddenly i felt arms around my waist.

"R-Rem?!" I called out shocked.

"You were the one who told me that you always want a hug when you feel like crying." Rem whispered.

I felt tears coming out of my eyes.

Finally after a minute I stopped crying.

"Now tell me what's wrong?" Asked Rem.

"It's just I remembered some stupid memories."

"Memories? What kind of?"

"I remembered what i was used to be. I was always bullied in the school by other children or even teachers. I was always hated by them. They used to call me worthless, stupid. They called my father as rich bastard. I always tried my hardest to make friends. But i was always thrown out." I said looking at the sunset.

"No that's not true."

"Yes it is. I was never good enough. Not for anyone, not for my family and friends. I'm really useless." I whispered.

I rested his head on my shoulder. "Oh really? You think that way huh? Have you ever thought about you family? Have they ever said that your useless? Did your mother ever tell you to leave her? Why do you care what people say about you? You don't know but people care. People may not show it but they do care. Just like you. You care about everything but you act like you don't because you're afraid that if you show yourself to others, you'll be left alone. Am i not right?" Asked Rem.

What could i say? He was right. I could only nod my head.

Few seconds later I realised...

"Umm Rem you can let go now."

I said.

Instead of letting go, i felt him arm tighten.

"Hmm what if I don't want to?" Rem whispered in my ears.

I blushed."l-let go of me!"

He chuckled and let go." Come on I'll drop you home."

"No i can wa-"

But cut off.

"No you can't. Go get your things." Ordered Rem.

I humphed but went to get my bag anyway.

(No one's POV)

Rem made sure she was out of sight. "You can come out now."

Urie, Mage and Shiki came out of nowhere.

"Oh looks like we got busted." Said Shiki.

"Yeah but it was worth it, stalking Rem." Said Mage.

"It's good to see the great Rem Kaginuki being lovey dovey." Said Urie smirking.

"I wasn't." Said Rem.

"Oh you think we're blind. We saw you and Ritsuka together ok?" Said Urie.

"It was nothing." Said Rem emotionlessly. "Just leave."

"We will. But keep that in mind you better make your move before someone snatch her away from you including us. Just admit.

You're in love with her." Said Urie smirking.

"Ohh you poor thing, it's not good to be that dense about your own feelings." Said Shiki.

"Haha, if ya keep goin' like this, I'm gonna make her mine." Said mage proudly.

Rem glares at them and went to Ritsuka.

(With Rem and Ritsuka)

"Are you ready to go?" Asked Rem.

"Yep"

Both went to the limo and sat in front of each other. Both lost in thoughts.

Rem was thinking about what Urie said. He loved her? Rem had never loved anyone in his whole life. He didn't know how it was like to love someone.

"Hey Ritsuka, what is love?" He asked out of nowhere.

Ritsuka quickly looked at him wide eyed but recovered quickly. "Well it's a feeling to care about someone like it's you life. The only reason why your alive. The urges to touch and hold him or her. When your in love, the mode of that person literally changes yours too. It is feeling of being yourself when your with that person. You want to protect him or her. Even a thought of that person makes you smile. It's a very happy feeling. But it has it's disadvantages too. It's like a rose, a rose is very beautiful but always has it's thorns. Love and life are not for everyone."

Rem was lost. It was all right. He didn't love her did he?

"Why did you ask that Rem?" Asked Ritsuka.

Rem came to his senses.

"Oh um i was just curious."

Then suddenly the limo stopped. Both came out.

"Thanks for the ride. Bye Rem." She was just about to turn when he grabbed her hand.

"What?" Asked Ritsuka.

"Where's my good night kiss?" Asked Rem obviously teasing her.

"W-what?" She blushed.

"I want my good night kiss."

"B-but-" she stopped when she saw his serious face.

She blushed hard and kiss his cheek.

"Stupid prez!" She yelled as she ran inside.

Rem stood there, grinning and then sat in the limo and left.

(At night)

Rem was looking at the ceiling lying on his bed. Smiling to himself. Thinking about Ritsuka.

He remembered her blushing face. His smile widened.

He remembered his convo with his three friends. They told him to not be that dense about his feelings for her. Even if he loved her, she would never accept his feelings right? He didn't deserve to be loved right?

'Everyone deserves a little happiness and love.'

Is it bad to love her? Because she's an angel and he's an devil? If he didn't hurry, he will lose her. He didn't want that. He wanted to be with her. He wanted to be the only one by her side. Devils don't have feelings so what's this now?

It was making him weak. That was bad. But the worse was...he was in love with her.
