A/N: Hi guys! I finished the hard parts to my exams today so I just have to finish the rest tomorrow and I will be back to writing as I usually do! I WILL have the next chapter out for my other story!

Asuna and Shinichi quickly went upstairs with their partners, grabbing their stuff from the room they had stayed in for the night. When Asuna and Kazuto were getting her bag, her phone went off again, her face going pale as she saw what it was.

"What's wrong Asuna?" Kazuto asked when he saw her face.

"W-We forgot to give an answer to Liz… Now she thinks that something happened and that she will call me continuously if I don't answer within 20 minutes." Asuna said, thinking about taking the battery out of her phone.

"Just… Turn it off?" He told her, saying the first thing that came to mind.

"I was thinking the same thing." Asuna said as she turned it off, thinking how she could just tell Rika later that her phone died and didn't notice. They heard a knock on the door and turned after Kazuto said they could enter. Sugu came in with Shinichi behind her.

"O-Onii-chan, Asuna-san's parents are outside. They came earlier…" she told them, making Asuna sigh at the fact that she couldn't spend more time with him. They went downstairs and Asuna could see her father's car outside through the window, her mother the one driving.

'That explains how they got here so quick…' Asuna thought since she knew that her mother driving involved a lot of speed and ignoring her father's warnings. She hugged Kazuto when they got to the door, kissing his cheek before giving him a quick peck on his lips.

"See you online?" She asked, Kazuto nodding with a smile on his face as he hugged her back. She opened the door and waved goodbye to them before closing the door, walking to her parents and entering the car. Kazuto sighed when he saw the car leave the house, closing the door and walking to the living room where Sugu and Shinichi were sitting. He sat down opposite of them and laid back with his head looking at the ceiling.

"I should start thinking of what to get for her… Christmas is soon…" he voiced, making the younger couple looking at him.

"You haven't thought of what to get her!?" Sugu said, standing up and glaring at him. He recoiled from her stare and leaned away, putting his hands up in defence.

"I-I have but I haven't thought seriously!"

"Christmas is next week! You have to get her something before she goes off to Kyoto!" Sugu said as she leaned in more to glare at him stronger. Kazuto held up a pillow and put it in her face, pushing her away and back into her seat.

"I have a week! I can think of something by then… I think…" he said, adding the last part quietly. Sugu kept on glaring at him until he figured out a way to get back at her.

"What about you? Have you guys got something for each other?" he said, making them both blush.

"W-Well we just started going out s-so of course we don't have something yet…" Sugu said as she sank into her seat, Shinichi looking away as he pulled his collar. Kazuto smiled when he saw that he wasn't agreeing with on what she was saying.

"Now you know what to guys have to do now." he said, not mentioning Shinichi's silence as he got up and headed toward the stairs.

"What are you going to do now?" Sugu asked him before he started ascend the stairs.

"I'm going to go visit to Yui for a bit." he said before going up the stairs and to his room. He went to his room and grabbed his amusphere, putting it on his head and laying down on his bed before saying "link start."

Kirito opened his eyes and saw the living room, a small figure sleeping on the couch while hugging a pillow. He smiled when he saw his daughter with a calm look on her face as she slept. He went and sat next to where she was, moving her hair from her eyes.

"I better move her from here… she might get cold." he said to himself as he carefully lifted her up, trying not to wake her up as he took her to the bedroom to let her sleep, covering her up with a blanket. He partially closed the door when he exited the room, making sure that some light still entered to not confuse her. He sat down on the couch, deciding to wait for Yui to wake up since he didn't want to disturb her when he heard a ringing in his ear from a message. He opened the message and saw that it was from Liz.

"Ignore or… what to do…" he asked himself before a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He got up and opened it, seeing the person he was just thinking about.

"Why is Asuna ignoring my messages? Did you do something to her?" she automatically asked him. He was thinking about closing the door on her since he had to good excuses but she quickly went past him, making him sigh.

"Don't make too much noise. Yui is sleeping in the bedroom." he said, getting a thumbs up from her.

"Well? What's going on? She usually answers as soon as she sees it." She said in a more hushed tone.

"Her phone could have died." he said, trying to make a normal excuse for it.

"This is Asuna we are talking about. She always has everything prepared." she said as she started to stare him down, beginning to suspect him of something.

"Well yesterday she was busy planning things with her family so she might have forgotten while doing that." he said, cheering in the back of his mind that he managed to remember that small tidbit of information. The leprechaun's gaze softened slightly at how that sounded possible, pouting slightly at how he was actually making sense.

"I still want to know if she's okay." She said, slightly whining as she told him.

"You'll know when you see her online later." he told her, getting up to get her some food from the kitchen.

"Have you heard from her?" She asked, not letting up on her questions.

"Y-Yesterday when she said she was going some things with her family about her trip to Kyoto." he said, reminding him more of how had to get a good gift for her.

"She better get here soon… I was so bored yesterday since I couldn't even go online."

"Lights went out?" he asked, getting a fierce nod from her.

"It was terrible! I had NOTHING to do!" She said as she fell sideways on the couch, moping.

'Would Liz know what to get for Asuna…?'

EXTRA: Asuna was in the backseat of the her family's car, being asked is she had thanked them for letting her stay the night when she started to sneeze, making Shouzou laugh.

"You know what they say Asuna, when you sneeze someone is talking about you." he said before continuing to laugh as Asuna blushed at that since she only sneezed once.

A/N: Again, thanks for putting up with me! I will post the new chapter next week! I will this time! By the way, have you guys seen the screenshots of Lost Song? I almost died seeing some of them. In a good way.
