Hello! I'm back! Sorry for the long wait so here is the next chapter! Sorry for mistakes. Please Review!

It was in the middle of the night and Yakumo was sitting on her bed looking down at the floor. The pass couple months have been nothing but hell. Why did she have to be in love with Harima? This was causing her so much pain and Harima never knew her true feelings. Yakumo takes out her phone and opens it to find her only picture of Harima. Seeing him even a picture gave her butterflies but at the same time it causes her so much pain. Those posters of Mikoto and Harima didn't help either. Everything was reaching it boiling point in and Yakumo couldn't take it anymore. "That's it…I don't care what happens to me anymore…I'm going to tell him how I feel. Because I can't go on like this anymore!" she says closing the phone. Yakumo was going to confess before anything else happens and before he gets attached to Mikoto. Tomorrow she was going to tell Harima and Tenma.

The next day

Harima was in his room in the corner with all the lights off. There was no way in hell he was going to school after what happened. "This can't possibly get anymore worse can it? I mean once you hit rock bottom you can't fall any feather…right?" Harima mutters rocking back and forth in his corner. This all started when he was trying to help Tenma's sister. Harima stops rocking "I need to speak with Tenma's sister! I need to throw all my cards on the table and try. But then what do I do about this whole misunderstanding with Mikoto…I'll worry about that later for now its Tenma's sister! Plus if Tenma kills me it won't matter!" Harima says standing up. He rushes for the door but due to the darkness he trips over his small table.

Itoko opens his door "What the hell is going on? Shouldn't you be going to school?" she says looking down at Harima who was face flat on the ground.

Harima rushes to get back up "I'm leaving right now!" he yells leaving his room. He had one shot to fix all of this.

"Hey moron, aren't you forgetting something!" Itoko yells.

Harima stops dead in his tracks and notice that he was only in a T-shirt and trouser "Uhhh yeah…right." He mutters heading back into his room.

Meanwhile

Yakumo was on her way to school very tired. All last night she as going over what she was going to say to both Harima and Tenma. In the end she thought it would be best if they both heard what she had to say. But there was something else that crosses her mind last night. The poster of Harima and Mikoto seem out of nowhere. Yakumo even before this whole mess had kept a close eye on Harima. Never once did she ever see him with Mikoto. Sure they were in the same class but the two were handling this as if it was all a lie. Yakumo knew that it was Fuyuki who posted the posters. But the question that was bugging her was if she should confront him about it. If she did it would expose her feeling to the whole school. Harima and Tenma would find out before Yakumo would get the chance to tell them herself. But not confronting him could lead them into an even bigger mess and misunderstanding. She thought about the last time she saw Fuyuki and how she almost took off his head. "No I need to tell Harima first. I'll worry about the rest later." She mutters reaching the school gates.

"Tenma's sister!" Someone yells from behind her. Yakumo's heart jumps out of her chest as the sound of Harima's voice. She turns around to see Harima running towards her. He stops at her looking out for Tenma "T-Tenma sister please meet me on the roof right now." He says out of breath.

"Harima get away from my sister!" Tenma yells charging at the two. Harima screams and runs off the school grounds with Tenma not far behind him.

Yakumo was going to stop Tenma but she was too fast. After thinking for a moment she decides to head for the roof of the school. Yakumo knew what he was going to do. This was going to save her the trouble of trying to get them together. She runs to the top of the roof feeling that the end was near. All this madness was almost over.

Meanwhile Harima was running for his life and trying to double back to the school. He was praying that Yakumo would be waiting on the roof. He makes it back to the school pushing anyone out of the way. "The things I do for love!" he thought running up the stairs. There was only two more floors to go but Tenma was gaining on him quickly.

"Take this!" Tenma yells leaping for Harima. She wraps her hands around his neck but Harima makes his last push through the roof doors.

Harima falls face first to the ground with Tenma trying to choke the life out of him. "Tenma get off of him!" Yakumo yells.

Both Tenma and Harima look up at Yakumo was looking at the both of them. She was a really red because the man she love was about to know her true feelings. "Yakumo I am your big sister and I will not allow this ape to corrupt your mind anymore!" Tenma yells back. Harima tried to protest but Tenma had gone back to choking the life out of him.

"Would you please just listen you me! This isn't Harima's fault at all!" Yakumo yells almost crying. No matter what happened she was going through with this. Nothing was going to stop her and they were going to listen. Tenma loosens her grip on Harima's neck. Harima stays quiet and waits for Yakumo to speak first. Her voice carried more weight than his at this point.

Tenma stands up "Yakumo what are you talking about?" she asked.

Yakumo looks at Harima her eyes were very watery "It's my fault that Harima's in this situation. He has done nothing but help me…he even saved my life." She says starting to tear up.

"Say what?" Harima says in trying to recall the event.

"I was the girl you save that night from that murder. You took me to the hospital…don't you remember Harima?" Yakumo asks.

Harima thinks back and remembers "Yeah…I didn't know that was you. I also have something to say to you Tenma's sister." He says. Both Yakumo and Tenma look at Harima. Tenma didn't want to hear what he had to say but for saving her little sister Tenma owe him that much. "I know you've gone through some changes in the pass couple weeks. And I've been meaning to talk to you for some time now. Don't be like me…" Those words shock Yakumo to the very core. That he cared enough to tell her this, to risk his life to get this message to her. "Someone like you has a lot more to gain in school then I do. My parents weren't in my life enough to influence me down the right path. I don't even have a friend to my name. I would hate to someone like you throw it all away." He says.

Tenma looks at Yakumo and could say that she was crying. Every word that Harima said was changing her…for the better. Tenma finally realizes something "I see…that explains a lot." She thought with a little smile. "Harima I'm sorry for saying all the things I said about you before. But I can't forgive you for going out with Mikoto." She says turning away from the both of them. Tenma felt like she heard enough to let this all go.

"Miss Tsukamoto about me and Mikoto it just…" Before Harima could finish Yakumo cuts him off.

"Wait I have one more thing to say. Harima I-I Lo…" Yakumo is then cut off by Tenma.

"Yakumo I know…and this isn't the way to do it. Just hold off for a while and make it more meaningful. Right now we all need to do is relax and take it all in." Tenma says looking back at the two. It was shocking for to grasp that her little sister was in love with Harima. But she knew how much a person would change for that special someone. Even Tenma had made some changes to get Karasuma's attention. And after hearing Harima say those things he thought Yakumo deserved a chance at her love. But this wasn't the way to confess to someone the mood at to be right and other problems had to be fixed. At the moment Yakumo had too much problems and before she gets in a relationship she had to take care of herself. "I hope things will get better now. Please let's all move on. Bye!" she says heading off the roof and back to class.

Now it was just Yakumo and Harima alone on the roof. Yakumo was red and understood that Tenma knew she was in love with Harima. She was so set on confessing but after hearing what Tenma said Yakumo had second thoughts. "Umm Harima…" Yakumo mutters out.

"Yeah what's up?" Harima ask glad that it was over.

Yakumo turns even redder "If its ok…Can we be…friends?" she asks barely audible.

Harima was a bit thrown off by the request. After thinking about it for a couple moments he decides it would give him the chance to get closer to Tenma. Plus they had a lot of work to do to get things fix. There was still this whole mess with Mikoto and he had to show that he wasn't a thug anymore to everyone. "ummm yeah sure…" he says heading for the roof doors.

Yakumo felt like a weight was lifted off her shoulders. Being his friend was one step closer to reaching her goal. It was a goal she thought died a while ago but now it was reborn. Now she can begin the road fixing things with everyone. "Thank you Harima…I love you." She mutters

"What was that?" Harima asks stopping at the door.

Yakumo turns away from Harima very red "N-Nothing! I said see you later Harima!" she says not believing she said that. Harima doesn't say anything and heads back to class. Yakumo is finally able to breath and with that she heads to her class. The first thing on her list was to fix things with her best friend Sarah. She was going to take it one step at a time and work towards her goal regardless of the outcome.
