My younger sister got inspired when I was making fanfiction so now she's going to start too. She wanted me to be a beta reader, but the site says I have to make 5 stories in order to be one. So, I'm going to make a Princess Tutu oneshot which will qualify as one more story, so yay. I might have to focus on this for awhile instead of everything else. Agh, so many things to do. "So much to do, so little time." I know you all relate. P.S. I'm going to do a time skip in the story because it is really hard to write about every single thing each day for their entire year. I also don't know what high schoolers study, so...

Chapter 4: Take Back Miku

Rin's POV

The morning after I went to Miku's house went relatively easy. I woke up, took a shower, got dressed, ate my breakfast, put on my big, pretty bow, and walked out the door with Len. I felt excited to see Miku again. I know I just met her, but I feel like we have this amazing connection. I would act on it except that I know my brother also likes her, and that's a problem. I mean, I may be a girl and will be able to get closer to her as a friend, but he's a boy, and he can be more romantic with her. A tough dilemma. I won't say anything yet until the time is right.

We arrived quite early, so me and Len tried to guess all the popular songs we knew to pass the time. The school bell rang later, and we entered the building. I walked to my locker and opened it to get my binders. My locker was decorated with orange magnets and moveable shelves that organize my work. I take a peek at Len's and see it is decorated with banana magnets and soccer ball pictures. Figures. "Are you ready?" I asked him as I closed my locker. He nodded his head as his reply and I lead him towards our homeroom. We waited patiently for the bell to ring again, signaling the beginning of first period. It did and we left to find Miku.

We were in the classroom before she was, and I was getting nervous that she would be late when she raced in and sat down right as the bell rang. Again. "Nice timing" I said sarcastically. She chuckled lightly and opened her planner.

"Yeah, I think it's impossible for me to be on time" Miku joked.

"Maybe you should go to bed earlier so you can rise at a reasonable hour" Len instructed her.

"Thanks dad, I'll try that next time" Miku snorted. Len blushed and looked down. I hugged him and smiled. I hope he didn't take her seriously.

Mrs. Tona walked in the room and cleared her throat. It quieted everyone and made them look at her. "Good morning class. Yesterday we listened to each other sing, and I have decided to further your musical education by letting you start a project" she explained. A few kids cheered and the class started chattering. Ms. Tona shushed them and started talking again. "You will need a lead singer, a bass player, and any other musician that can obviously, play an instrument. You may receive help from anyone except from other groups" she said. This was so exciting! We had to use three students, and I would be able to make the perfect group with Len and Miku. I could see it already!

Mrs. Tona let us wander off, and I raced to Miku and Len. "Guys, let's form a group together!" I cried. Miku grinned and Len gave a small smile.

"Do you guys play instruments?" Miku asked.

"I do the guitar" I said.

"I sometimes do the guitar, but mostly I play the keytar" Len added. I giggled at Len's nickname for his instrument. "Hey, it's a real name!" he said with a deep blush.

"Don't worry about it" Miku said to him. He calmed down and looked at me.

"So, do you have any ideas for what we should make our song about?" I asked. Miku struck a thinking pose, and Len just looked off in the distance. A crowd of comedians or what? "You have nothing? That's okay, we'll just, uh, think of something later" I said. This was bad; we needed to come up with something or else we'd get a bad grade, and I can't afford to flunk the first project of the semester. The bell rang, and first period ended. Miku, Len, and I walked and talked all the way to the gym.

(Time Skip to the End of the Day)

Science ended in a bang since Mr. Kapac nearly blew up the classroom. How does he qualify to be a teacher? He nearly killed us all! I picked up my binders and papers that were scattered to the wind. Miku waited for me by the doorway after everyone left. I gave her a relieved smile and she returned it. I took her hand and held it as I walked with her to our lockers. We separated at a fork, and I ran to my locker so I could catch up with her. Len was putting on his backpack by the time I got there. "Wait for me" I said to him. He rolled his eyes and leaned against his locker door. I went to super-speed and gathered everything in record time. I was out of breath by the end of it, but still had enough energy to drag Len across the school.

When we got there, Miku was talking to a boy with blue hair and a scarf. The boy actually looked hot, but I tried to keep my focus on Miku. She spotted us and waved, leaving the boy behind. He stared at us, shrugged, and walked away.

"Hello again" Miku said cheerfully.

"Who was the guy you were with?" I asked.

"Oh, no one important."

I don't trust her answer. That boy seemed suspicious, also idiotic. Then I come to the horrible conclusion that he might be her boyfriend. Gasp! I try to not let Miku know that I'm catching onto her little secret. Got to keep it cool.

"Let's walk outside" Len suggested. The poor boy is trying to keep the peace. That's my brother for you. Miku seemed to be fine with that, so we stepped out of the building towards her way home.

All of the sudden, Miku's phone started to ring, and she excused herself and walked behind me and Len. She talked quietly in the phone, leaving me and Len to wonder what she was talking about. "EH?! Now? But, but... fine" Miku shouted out of nowhere into her phone. She sighed and walked back to us. "I am so sorry guys, but an... appointment, just came up and I have to go" she explained with remorse. I gave a downtrodden look and lowered my head. I wanted to spend time with Miku. She bowed to us and ran off to the right. I watched her travel farther and farther away from me. Then I turned to Len with anger in my voice.

"I think that the boy Miku was talking with before is her boyfriend"

He gasped and put a hand to his mouth. "I know, I felt that way too" I reassured him.

"What do we do?" he asked hesitantly.

"We're going to follow her to wherever he is taking her, and if we see him, we make sure he never talks to her again" I said with an extreme amount of menace. He nodded in agreement and we begin mission Take Miku Back!

Miku was thankfully slow when it came to walking, so we easily were able to trail her. Len and I snuck behind trees, bushes, buildings, and mailboxes. We watched her walk into an incredibly fancy neighborhood filled with many mansions. We gasped at its hugeness. Miku went inside one of them and vanished from our view. I got annoyed that I wasn't able to see her. How would I be able to see who she is with? Suddenly, Len took hold of my arm and pointed towards the fence of the mansion. "Look, she's going into the backyard!" I glanced in the fence's direction and do indeed see Miku walking inside.

"Come on, we have to get closer to the it" I demanded. I snuck my way to the fence, and motioned for Len to follow. He shifted his eyes, watching if anybody was coming, and snuck towards me. I found a crack through the wood, and I brought Len closer so we could observe what was going on.

We could definitely hear talking in the yard and through the crack, we could see Miku was with somebody. Actually, four somebodies; the boy with the scarf, a girl with pink hair, a boy in a samurai outfit, and a girl dressed in red. That was an odd group. Maybe she just wasn't taken by her boyfriend. Maybe she was kidnapped by them! My eyes widen with realization. I spy Miku walking toward the gate in the fence and leaning on it, so I dragged Len with me to get really close to the gate. We were practically leaning on it to listen to their conversations. "What should I focus on bringing?" Miku asked.

"You already know, I told you on the phone" a cocky female voice said. The people here might be making her bring in her belongings. How cruel!

I tried to move into a different direction to hear better when the gate suddenly opened and me and Len fell onto the ground, or really, Miku. All of us screamed as we came crashing down. "Wha- what are you guys doing here?" Miku asked in shock. We were laying on our bellies, using poor Miku as a cushion.

"We've come to rescue you!" I answered.

"Yeah, we knew you were in trouble when you were suddenly called away from us so we followed you" Len continued. She sighed and squirmed her way from out from under us.

"I appreciate your concern, but I was in no danger. I was just called here by my other friends."

"You have other friends?" I asked slowly. She nodded.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Len asked.

"I was going to later today, after this actually, but I was interrupted" she explained, clearly meaning us. The purple haired boy came up and extended an arm with a sword in his hand across Miku's body in a protective gesture.

"I will not allow Miss Miku to get hurt" he said with a growl. Who did this guy think he was?!

"I'm not going to let you of all people to get in my way of protecting Miku!" I responded ferociously. I was about to attack when Miku pulled me into a hug.

"Please Rin, I feel so happy that you care about about this much, but I don't want to get anyone hurt because of me" she said in my ear. I hugged her back and sighed into her shoulder.

"Alright, I'll be less aggressive" I said. She gave me a bright smile and pulled back. I saw from the corner of my eye Len giving a big sigh.

"Great. Now that we got that all out of the way, time for some minor introductions" the girl in red said as she walked up to Len and I. "I'm Meiko Sakine, that's Luka Megurine, Gakupo Kamui, and Miku's boyfriend Kaito Shion" she said, gesturing to herself and the others. I listened closely until she mentioned Kaito being Miku's boyfriend. I began to stammer and Len looked as if he was about to faint.

"M- Kai- Fr- B-b- boyfriend?!" I cried. Meiko laughed and wiped a tear from her eye.

"Ha ha, I was just kidding. You two are so easy." I blushed a furiously colored red, and Len took deep breaths to try not to pass out. "Anyways, Miku was summoned here because she is now joining my friend group, and she needed to decorate the hangout with some of the items she liked" Meiko explained. That makes a lot more sense.

"Oh" I said. Miku giggled and started tugging on Meiko's arm.

"Hey, can Rin and Len join too? Please please please?" she said in an adorable kid voice. Meiko walked to Luka, Gakupo, and Kaito and huddled with them in a little circle. I watched curiously and prepared myself for the answer that was to come. The circle separated, and Meiko walked back to us. She gave a dramatic pause before finally speaking again.

"The twins are in!" Me and Len held hands and started jumping up and down. This was fantastic! More time with Miku and other senpais!

We chatted with everyone for awhile and somehow got to the subject of our music project. "I remember that project. I had a different teacher from Mrs. Tona so we had to have four students in the group" Luka said.

"Who was in it?" Miku asked.

"These characters right here" she replied, pointing to all the other senpais. That's sweet; they even worked together on assignments.

"You know, you are allowed to get help, and I think we could do a good job making your song better" Kaito suggested.

"That's not a half brained idea" Meiko snickered. "So, what'cha kiddies have now?" Miku gave a stifled giggle, but didn't say anything. "Let me guess, you got nothing" Meiko sighed.

"Sad but true" Len responded.

"Well, no time to start like the present" Kaito said cheerfully. "What do you want the song to be about?"

I thought about it. "How about making it based on our love of music and partying" I put out.

"That's a wonderful idea, Rin" Miku said. I give a pat on the back to myself mentally.

"So now that we got the theme, what should we call it?" Luka asked. Miku started dancing randomly and motioned for me to join her. It was weird, I admit, but doing something so small for my crush couldn't hurt. We did this partner square dance and ended up on the floor. I laughed so hard my sides ached.

Just then, Len snapped his fingers and shouted out, "Shake It! That's what we'll call it!" I thought about it, and decided it was perfect.

"Leave it to a poetic genius to come up with an amazing title" Miku said cheekily.

"I already told you, I'm not that good" he said in an embarrassed tone. Miku just rolled her eyes. Is there something I don't know about, or...

To skip some minor details, Meiko got a chart that told everyone what to do. She must have just had one lying around. I look over everybody crowding on all sides of it. Me, Len, and Miku were obviously in charge of the song. Meiko was going to be in charge of making the music and talking with us about it, Luka was going to look over the track and special effects, Gakupo was going to write the lyrics and also talk with us, and Kaito was going to make the snacks.

"Eh? I'm only making snacks?" he asked while scratching his head in confusion.

"Yes you idiot, you're not going to be part of the song, so you're going to get us food. Besides, I ran out of musical positions for you" Meiko ranted. After that, we thanked the group for their assistance, and walked back to Miku's house.

"Guys, thanks again for joining me in this project. I don't think I would be able to do this alone. In fact, I don't think I would be able to go to this school without you. Even though we just met, we shared so many adventures already. I want to share more" said Miku as she wore her trademark smile. I hugged her, and so did Len. It was a sweet moment, one I wished would never end. She blew us a kiss as she went inside. Me and Len sighed. This girl was amazing! I can't wait to get started on this song!

Well everyone, that took ages. Did you like how the characters seem to be progressing more? Me too. I don't think my sister is really going to write any fanfiction. She just wanted to write fiction. Either way, I'm going to do that oneshot anyway. Have you noticed that there's like hardly any stories there. Oi, I have to do my part to contribute to this website! Also, I wonder why I made Miku kiss the Kagamines goodbye. Hm, what could this mean? *Devious smile*
