EoS: In this chapter, we get to see some more development with Sakura and Aurore.

Lauren: But no more Yomi… Aw…

EoS: I know, but I'm a little happy.

TheDragonsInferno:

EoS: Pretty much, yeah.

RockytheTyranitar:

EoS: But Aurore's not that much of an asshole. Though he is cute with Sora.

Amalgam:

Lauren: Well, okay, sure. Mostly because you're being so nice and apologizing, as well as happy you're a lot like me. *smiles cheerfully*

Light's champion:

Lauren: Oh yeah. He is.

Mr. Brandloyal:

EoS: Well… It's a little more complicated than that. But that's pretty close!

Aurore's Moemon Adventure

Chapter 78

"Hey, Sakura!" Rin said, waving at Sakura, whose face was a brilliant vermillion. The color of sheer, unbelievable shame. Sakura walked up to Rin and Prima, who were in the audience.

"Wow, I can't believe you did that." Prima said, surprised. "That… That is not something I would have done."

"Yeah, well, it was pretty embarrassing…" Sakura said, flushing bright red. "I mean, but I had to say it, you know? I can only get confidence when I'm on television, so that was the best I could have done…"

Sakura walked out of the studio, and saw Sora and Lulu running up.

"Hey, Sakura!" Lulu said, waving, Sakura's face flushing red again.

"Wait, you guys are here?" Sakura asked, nervous. "Um, I wasn't expecting this to happen so soon… Um, did Aurore…"

"He heard it." Lulu said, nodding. "And he ran like a bitch."

"Oh…" Sakura said, curling up in the corner, sobbing, a cloud of angst over her head.

"Sakura…" Sora said, rubbing Sakura's back.

"Sora, I think I'm going to release my own Darkness…" Sakura said, frowning.

"Uwah…" Sora said, backing up.

"You know, I should have expected this from him." Sakura said, frowning. "I mean, what sort of idiot just runs in the opposite direction when a girl confesses to him?"

"…Aurore." Lulu said, nodding.

"Yeah, Aurore." Rin said, nodding.

"Definitely Aurore." Sakura agreed.

"Damn it!" Lulu said, frowning. "When I find that wimp, I'm going to…"

"Hello…" Aurore said, walking up behind them, Sakura nearly jumping out of her skin.

"Aurore…" Sakura said, turning to Aurore, holding her hands over her face. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Look, I wanted to run away, I really did." Aurore said, nodding.

"Shouldn't be admitting that." The five girls present said, glaring at him.

"Listen, I decided that I have to look at you in the eye so that I know exactly how you feel." Aurore said, frowning. "And? What do you think?"

"I think…" Sakura said, staring at him, blushing. "I was right. I do love you."

"I see…" Aurore said, nodding.

"So…" Sakura said, staring at Aurore, flustered. "What… What about you? Do you…"

"…" Aurore said, staring at Sora, frowning. He took a deep breath, and looked up at the sky. "I don't know. I don't know how I feel. I'm just not sure about it, because I don't think I should feel this way about you. I just don't. I don't know how I feel, and I don't know how I should feel."

"I see…" Sakura said, looking down. Lulu's face became slightly confused and saddened as she looked at them, frowning.

"Still…" Aurore walked over to her, wrapping his hands around Sakura's waist, pulling her into a hug. Sakura's face flushed an embarrassing tomato red at the embrace, neither hugging him back nor pushing away, simply allowing Aurore to hug her. Aurore placed Sakura's ear against his chest, Sakura flushing a little more.

"Listen to my heart." Aurore said, holding her closer to him. His heart was beating wildly into her ear, as she smiled warmly. "This isn't something that I know how to deal with. I only know that I've felt that a few times."

Aurore turned to Sora and Lulu.

"I've only felt this way around a few people." Aurore sighed. "So I don't know what to do. I love Sora, definitely. And I love Lulu as well, though in a different way."

"Am I blushing?" Lulu asked, rolling her eyes.

"But I don't know how I feel about you." Aurore said, frowning. "I'm sorry, but I don't."

"Well, it doesn't matter if you don't know how you feel." Sakura said, pushing away from him, looking up into his eyes, blushing softly. "As long as you know how I feel… We can work it out."

Sakura pressed her lips up against his, sighing into his mouth as she embraced him back.

"Whoa…" Lulu said, staring at Sakura, shocked. "You guys… Are you going to get together?"

The two backed off, staring at each other, Aurore stumbling back and turning to Sora.

"…" Aurore looked at Sora, his eyes staring deeply into hers, a frown crossing her face.

"Listen, Sakura, I can't be with you that way." Aurore said, turning to her, frowning. "I can't really be with you in any way. Before anything, my first duty is to Sora. No matter what, I have to be with her and support her at all times."

"I see…" Sakura said, nodding, looking down sadly. "I understand, Aurore."

"Good." Aurore said, smiling.

"But I'm not going to give up!" Sakura said, glaring at him. "Never underestimate my family! I will force that Darkness out of Sora and beat the shit out of it, you got it?"

"Um, yes." Sora said, nodding, a little scared.

"I love you, you know." Sakura said, turning back to Aurore, smiling. "And some day, do you think we'll be able to be together?"

"Um, I don't think we should think about it." Aurore said, frowning. "But someday… Maybe… I guess…?"

"Yes, awesome!" Sakura said, wrapping her arms around Aurore, hugging him tightly.

"Sora, how are you handling this?" Lulu asked, turning to Sora.

"It kind of hurts…" Sora said, looking down, frowning. "But it's alright, because I know master truly does love me. And I guess that makes me feel good, right?"

"Okay, then you're a good kid, you know that, Sora?" Lulu asked, smiling.

"I know." Sora said, smiling.

EoS: So, what do you think? Pretty good?

Lauren: I feel a little bad about her.
