Nana was alone in the apartment, just as well. She loved the silence. She wasn't like the idea of being around Hachi. Things were just rather weird. Nana looked around the empty apartment, "Alright...I am going to pick this room." She whispered, Nana looked around the cold room. Then shook her head, and soon she popped into the bathroom, and began to run the water. She shrugged, then immediately made the water turn into a shower. Nana began to immediately shiver, "Oh shit oh shit!" Nana stated,

At the same time, Hachi was with Shoji, Junko and Kyosuke. Hachi was getting really excited, as she rang the door bell, a man slowly opened the door, "Oh...I am sorry. I must have gotten the wrong apartment." Hachi mustered, as she turned away with the group, but heard someone screaming, Hachi appeared into the doorway, "NANA!" Hachi screamed,

Nana arched her brow, she was just in a towel, as she appeared at the doorway, "Oh, hey Nana." Nana chuckled, as she now looked towards Yasu, "Yasu...Why is the water so damn cold?!" Nana asked in a demanding way,

"The gas company apparently hasn't turned it on. So, no hot water." Yasu stated,

"Just fucking great! How in the hell am I going to take a shower?" She asked, then shivered, "Dammit...Cold cold cold." Nana ran off, and into her bedroom, slamming the door behind her. She took in a deep breath, as she slipped on clothes then reappeared into the room where everyone was standing around, "Alright..." Nana grinned, "Is this your boy toy?" Nana asked, as she pointed to Shoji,

"He isn't my boy toy! He is my boyfriend!" Hachi whimpered,

"Same dif." Nana rolled her eyes, "Alright...Uh...I guess I should be nice..." Nana looked around, she noticed that Yasu was being business like as usual, "Anyone want some tea?" Nana asked,

"OH! I will help!" Hachi exclaimed,

"Do you got glasses and a teapot?" Nana asked,

"Well...No." Hachi mustered,

"You are useless." Nana stated,

"It wouldn't matter anyway, you have no gas. In which the oven won't work either. Nor will the heat." Yasu smirked, as he handed Nana a cigarette, "Here." He leaned over and lit the end, he now took a long drag from his own cigarette.

"Alright, well I need to go to work." Shoji stated as he leaned in and kissed Hachi on the lips,

"Oh, please get a room, before I throw up." Nana stated, as she rolled her eyes. "Dammit...I am fucking freezing." Nana mustered, she then watched Shoji, Junko, and Kyosuke leave.

"Alright, I am going to go as well." Yasu stated,

"Ah come on, man. Why not stay the night?" Nana asked,

"I can't. I have work to do. Sorry." Yasu stated, as he leaned in and softly placed a kiss on Nana's forehead.

After Yasu left. Nana and Hachi just stood there. "Hmm...I think we need some stuff. Like glasses...Whatever, everything." Nana stated, as she saw Hachi staring at her, "Didn't we have a conversation on the train, about your eyes being glued to someone? Its creepy, Nana." Nana stated, as she walked out of the apartment with Hachi following her,

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

They went to a few shops together, Nana was forced into buying some ungodly glasses with little strawberries, "You know...You act like some sick loving puppy. You are too...Well, ya know. You follow people, and your obedient. I think I am going to call you Hachi." Nana grinned, "Plus, its a bit confusing, don't you think? To have two chicks in one place named Nana?" Nana asked,

"Hachi?! Can't it be a cuter name?!" Hachi pouted,

"Nah, Hachi is perfect for an obedient pet like you." Nana chuckled, as she watched Hachi's face just change drastically, "Ah, come on its funny. You need to lighten up, kid." Nana stated, as she went and paid for the items. And soon she was being dragged to a furniture store. She just wanted to go home. She felt like she was Hachi's girlfriend or something. Nana blushed to the idea of being Hachi's girlfriend, but immediately shook the idea out of her head, "I will take this lamp for my room." Nana stated, she was now actually smiling as she watched Hachi move fast through the store, Nana sighed. "Alright, Hachi, lets go." Nana stated, as she walked to the exit, then saw Hachi whip out a resume and handed the piece of paper to Mizukoshi.

Soon, Hachi and Nana walked out of the furniture store, knowing that they would get their stuff later on that day. Nana looked over to Hachi, that was now begging to go into a music store, "When will it end?!" Nana thought, once in the store. She looked at the poster of Trapnest, and saw Ren, "R...Ren..." Nana thought, as she felt a lump swallow her throat,

"I love Trapnest!" Hachi exclaimed, then looked over to Nana, "Nana..." Hachi whispered, as she looked towards Nana was looking, "Oh!" Hachi pointed out Takumi, Naoki and Reira,

"What about him?" Nana asked, then saw Hachi look at her confused, "The guitarist." Nana felt another knot,

"Oh, Ren?" Hachi shrugged, "He looks scary, I like nice guys." Hachi giggled, "OH! And I got a poster." Hachi watched Nana turn on her heel,

"That's nice, kid. You can put the poster in your room." Nana rolled her eyes, as they soon walked out. Nana just wanted to breathe, and Hachi? Was smothering her to no end. Nana was wondering if this would be the biggest mistake of her life. Once back at the apartment, Nana was reminded that they had no beds. Nana sighed loudly,

"Nana...We have no beds." Hachi pouted,

"That's cool, we can sleep in sleeping bags." Nana just sighed in annoyance, "Lets go spend more money! YAY!" Nana said coldly, she grabbed Hachi's hand and walked out of the apartment, yet again, and headed back to Mizukoshi's shop. Once there, Nana asked for two beds. "Now, back home we go." Nana scolded, once there, Nana was told by Hachi she was going to go see Shoji. As for Nana, she watched Hachi leave, and she took the Trapnest CD in her hands, and went to listen to the album, her heart immediately broke when she heard the guitar break into the song, she knew Ren was playing. She cried herself to sleep, just laying on the floor.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

The next day, Hachi was going to be late for work. Hachi smiled, as she managed to get to work on time. For some odd reason, she wasn't thinking about Shoji and some random chick named Sachiko, but her mind was on Nana. She began to blush, as she remembered the first time they met on the train. Her heart began to excel in speed, as she could see Nana's smile. She just wanted to go home already, she wanted...No, she needed to see Nana. Once her shift was over, she ran out and waved to her boss. Hachi literally ran to the apartment, she heard loud banging sounds, "Nana..." Hachi whispered, as she walked into the apartment, "Uh...Nana what are you doing?" Hachi asked,

"What does it look like?" Nana asked, "I am making chairs and a table. We got everything else. So, I thought why the hell not. I'll make a table and chairs. I just..." Nana looked towards Hachi, who just couldn't keep her eyes off of the singer, "Uh...Earth to Hachi." Nana stated,

Hachi cleared out her throat, "I love it!" Hachi exclaimed, as she finally shut the door behind her, "So...Wh..." Hachi tried to find the words, "So, how are you?" Hachi asked, "BAKA!" Hachi thought of herself,

"I am good. How was your first day at work?" Nana asked, as she now flipped the table up and set the legs down on the floor, "This actually looks good." Nana stated, as she smirked towards Hachi, "You still have that staring problem." Nana chuckled, then smiled,

"I KNEW IT! You can smile!" Hachi giggled,

"What you saw was a twitch." Nana smirked,

"Ah, come on! You like being around me!" Hachi then heard her own words, "Or...Is it because I like being around her..." Hachi thought, either way, they both liked being around each other.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

After weeks of living together, Nana had finally opened up to Hachi. Nana shook her head, as Hachi begged her to come to the restaurant where Shoji worked, she wanted to surprise him. Nana reluctantly decided to go with Hachi, "The food better be worth it." Nana stated, things were weird between Shoji and Hachi. Nana could see that, they would spend less time together. And Hachi seemed distraught. Nana sighed, as they placed their orders. She watched a girl named Sachiko drop some plates and glasses,

"Oh, let me help you." Hachi smiled ever so softly, Hachi watched the girl run away. She didn't know what to do, she looked towards Nana, who only shrugged to the girl's actions. Hachi walked outside with Nana, after they paid for the meal, "Can we wait for, Shoji?" Hachi asked,

"Fine." Nana stated, as she watched Hachi shiver, "Here." Nana whispered, as she removed her leather jacket, and helped Hachi put the jacket on,

"But you will get sick!" Hachi pleaded with Nana,

"Nah, I am much stronger than you." Nana smiled, she felt Hachi wrap a scarf around her. And soon Hachi was leaning into Nana, "Why do I feel so warm around her?" Nana thought, "Why do I want to just...Why do I wish I could be hers? And why do I wish that she will be mine?" Nana thought, as she now looked up and saw Shoji running after Sachiko. They were hugging, but not like a friendly way, more like a lovey dovey way. Immediately Nana stood and walked to the male, "WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM!?" She screamed as she grabbed Shoji's collar,

"Its my fault!" Sachiko began, "I knew he had a girlfriend! But I wanted to be with him! I love him!" Sachiko pleaded, and when she grabbed Nana's arm, she was swung down to the ground, "Please hit me, not him!" Sachiko stated,

"I plan on it. I plan on rearranging your pretty face." Nana spat out, then looked towards Hachi, "HACHI! FIGHT FOR YOUR MAN!" Nana screamed, then just saw Hachi crying. Nana growled as she punched Shoji hard, then once again. She left him with a black eye, and a busted lip. Then she turned her attention towards Sachiko and punched her in the face, "Enjoy the free fucking make-over." Nana stated, as she now ran after Hachi, "HACHI!" Nana screamed, once she caught up to Hachi, she wrapped her arm around Hachi and walked them home. Once there, she saw Hachi's heart continue to break in her eyes, finally Nana grabbed Hachi's hand, and made Hachi look at her in her eyes, "Hachi, you do not need a man to tell you are beautiful. Because you are beautiful. You don't need a man, to show you that you are loved. Because you are very loved by your friends." Nana stated with a soft smile, "Hachi..." Nana whispered, as she was trying to help Hachi out, "Hachi, please listen to me. You are beautiful, smart, and you have an amazing personality. You are sweet, and loving." Nana smiled, "Please do not think you need a man in your life to make you think otherwise." Nana hugged Hachi tightly,

"Sleep with me, please." Hachi gripped onto the short black haired female. "Please, Nana. I do not want to sleep alone." Hachi now pleaded with Nana.

Nana slowly picked up Hachi, "Then let us go." Nana smiled, as she walked them into her room, and set Hachi down on the bed. She slowly took off her leather jacket from Hachi's body, then slowly slid into bed with the female. She felt Hachi get ever so close, and Nana soon wrapped her arm around the crying female, "Its okay. I will always be here for you." Nana whispered, as she felt heart beating fast, "Am I falling for her? Why do I feel happy that Shoji cheated on her?" Nana thought as she watched Hachi fall asleep. And soon Nana fell asleep right after Hachi. She couldn't believe that this perfect girl laid with her. And the most she thought about this, she began to dream about how amazing things would be if her and Hachi were more than just friends. And unknown to her knowledge, Hachi was thinking about the same thing.
