Thank you so much to anybody who has read this story! It means a lot to us. Hinata is a little OOC in this story but it had to be that way for the story to make sense. Please enjoy, read, and review.

Sumino couldn't help but stare at the clock during class; she tried to pay attention to the lesson, but she couldn't stop glancing at the clock until she just stopped paying attention to the lesson. She was anxious for lunch time to start so she could talk, and hopefully apologize, to Teru.

Time seemed to move much at such a torturous pace today, more so than it usually did. Finally after several agonizing hours of the teacher droning on and on, it was time for lunch.

She immediately scanned the room for Teru when the bell rang, but he was already gone from the room.

Sumino sadly got up from her seat and slowly left the room after most of her peers had left. She roamed the hallways for some time until she remembered that every now and then he liked to hang out on the roof. The young teenager decided to look for Teru up there. Thankfully, that's just where he happened to be today.

Teru was leaning against the wall of the roof's access door. Walking around the corner to him, she leaned down to place a hand on his shoulder making him turn and look at her questioningly.

"Teru," She started practically in a whisper, "I'm sorry for what I said. Did you and Hinata get in a fight? Is that why you don't want to help me?"

Teru's face showed a glimmer of sadness, but that was quickly replaced with annoyance. In an irritated tone he hissed, "You just don't get it do you?!"

Sumino's expression instantly became sad as Teru angrily lashed at her verbally. As soon as the words left his mouth Teru knew that they weren't the right thing to say to her. He sighed guiltily and whispered softly, "I'm sorry Sumino, I just want to be alone right now."

Sumino felt tears prick the corners of her eyes threatening to fall down her cheeks. She nodded numbly and turned from him to leave the rooftop, the first of the tears spilling down her cheeks.

After she left the rooftop, the young girl went in search of her boyfriend as she wiped her eyes with the sleeve of her uniform. Sumino knew her eyes must be puffy and irritated from the salty tears, but found that she didn't care. She knew that he would be in the student council room.

"Hinata," She started but was soon overwhelmed yet again by her tears.

Without even looking up from his work, Hinata sneered, "Sumino not now! Can't you see I'm busy?"

Hinata's harsh tone caused even more tears to spill over. Having nowhere else to go she ran into the nearest restroom.

Going straight into the first stall, she locked the door and leaned her back against it feeling emotionally and mentally drained.

Teru doesn't want to be around me anymore, she thought sobbing. Hinata doesn't even care about me anymore. He didn't even bother to ask what was wrong.

Sumino spent the rest of lunch in there by herself. When she ran out of tears to cry she felt a little better and she returned to the classroom once the warning bell rang. She sat in her seat next to the window and responded politely to anyone that talked to her, but otherwise ignored the gathering students by absentmindedly scribbling in her notes.

When Teru walked in he instantly noticed how sad Sumino looked just sitting there, staring at her notes. Then he noticed that her eyes were irritated... from crying. Damn it, he thought. Teru felt like an idiot for making her cry. All the same, he wasn't sure how he could apologize to her this time.

Later that night, Sumino sat in front of her old laptop with a comforter wrapped around her crossed legs under the low table. She was checking for any new comments from MegaPig or BlackRabbit, but since she saw nothing from either of them she posted, "It seems like my sun has burnt out."

Of course, she was referring to how Hinata no longer seemed to care about her.

Sumino was about to power down her laptop for she was so emotionally drained that she felt that she couldn't even properly respond to any comments from MegaPig or BlackRabbit. But she froze when she saw that MegaPig almost immediately commented on her post saying, "That can't be true! Don't give up Himawari-san I'm sure you can work things out. Besides isn't BlackRabbit helping you with that?"

Sumino pulled her finger away from the power button, not quite sure how to respond to his question. After a few minutes she typed out, "It seems like BlackRabbit doesn't want to be bothered with me anymore."

She grew sad remembering what happened earlier that day. The young girl looked back at the screen and realized that Megapig had once again responded to her. His comment read, "Did something happen between you two?"

Since Sumino herself was not quite sure what happened, the teen decided to respond with a simple, "I don't know..."

While walking into school the next day, Sumino tried very hard to avoid Teru. This was in fear of being yelled at again. She successfully accomplished this until on her way to class she felt somebody grab her shoulder. The brown haired girl turned to see her blonde haired friend that she was supposed to be avoiding.

"Do you have minute?" He asked calmly.

Sumino stared at him for sometime before nodding at him to continue.

Teru took a deep breath before mumbling, "I'm sorry."

Sumino stared at her friend in shock asking, "What?" for he wasn't really one to apologize.

With more confidence the young blonde repeated, "I'm sorry," after he short pause he continued, "I shouldn't have gotten upset over something that wasn't your fault."

Sumino could feel her eyes filling up tears of joy. After eagerly accepting his apology, she opened her arms as if to hug him. The young girl then decided that was not the best idea since she had a boyfriend, and so her arms returned to her sides.

Teru looked to the side before muttering, "If you want, I can help you with Hinata."

Sumino's smile then about doubled in size.

"Really?" She beamed excitedly.

Teru nodded looking back to her and then added, "We can discuss this later at lunch."

Sumino smiled happy to have her friend back. The two teens then walked off to class together with Sumino chatting animatedly and Teru smiling softly.
