A/N: Hello! Double chapters again today... Because the two chapters are closely linked... And it's Saturday.

Without further ado, here you go!

Akaito tiptoed into Mikuo's room. The boy was out accompanying his sister for her shopping, so it's safe.

The room had a simple theme of white and blue and some bits of teal. Akaito walked to the bookshelf and looked through it.

Mikuo had quite a collection of books.

Akaito stuck out his tongue at the stack of books on music theory. He rummaged through the other books. He didn't find what he went there for.

He checked the desk next. The locked drawer looked pretty suspicious... He'll need a key for this.

Akaito went on to search for the key. He looked under the pillow first... and there it was.

"Aha!" Akaito grinned. Maybe he and Mikuo weren't so different after all... He unlocked the drawer and pulled it out.

He found it.

Mikuo's diary.

Akaito clutched it tightly and was about to leave when Mikuo came in.

"You're back!" Akaito squeaked. He sounded like Kaito.

"Yeah, I'm back. What are you doing in here?" Mikuo raised an eyebrow.

"N-n-n-nothing...! At all!"

"Really...?" Mikuo looked at Akaito's hand hiding behind his back.

"Really!"

"You know what?" Mikuo's eyes narrowed. "I don't think so." Akaito can't lie. He's so bad at it that you can even tell he's going to lie.

"Ah... ah... I..."

"What's that you're holding?"

Akaito gulped. "N-nothing...!"

"Show me."

"D-d-d-d-dehh! Wuwalalaba!"

Mikuo saw a corner of a book peek out behind Akaito. "Hm...? If you wanna borrow a book, just ask me."

Akaito's face went red in panic. He quickly hid the book.

Mikuo thought he recognised that little corner. That corner he stared at when his mind was blank...

"It's my diary, isn't it?"

Akaito flailed his arms and the book went 'thump' on the floor."I... I'm... I'm sorry!"

Mikuo picked up the book, then tossed it at Akaito. "I don't mind if you take it, but it must be back by dinnertime. I write my entries after dinner."

"You... don't mind? Really?"

"Yeah, since you're my friend and all. I won't forgive you if you spoil it though."

"I won't do such a thing! This is my best friend's most important thing, so I won't spoil it!" Akaito held the book to his chest in a protective manner.

"Well, I've a bath to take, so would you kindly leave for now?"

"Okay sure!" Akaito quickly went out. It shocked him that Mikuo would trust him so much. He gazed at the book in his hand, and he smiled.

Thank you for trusting me.

A/N: Eeeeeep I love this so much :D

Hope you enjoyed it! :)
