This chapter was re-written a little, as I was playing around with it before finally deciding the best way to take this chapter was to introduce the main plot points for this arc. It should be rather obvious what they are, though if not then I've failed as a writer and that's on me and I apologize.

Thank you all for the continued support, it means alot.

Next chapter should be up by July 25th

As always, go join the subreddit at Church_Of_AquaxRuby

Thank you as always!


The kitchen clock ticked away as it neared Six in the morning as Aquamarine Hoshino, the reincarnated form of the Doctor Gouro Amamiya, sat quietly at the table with his laptop open. He was dressed in an unbuttoned shirt, and boxer shorts as he scanned over various news articles.

It had been several hours since his first time with Ruby, and after falling asleep for nearly an hour, he had woken up and gotten out of bed and dressed himself into his current attire. He then immediately called Miyako since she still wasn't home, a fast Aqua was thankful for given the circumstances, and after some discussion it was decided Miyako would stay the night at Taishi's place alongside Mem-Cho and Kana to make sure the girls were alright while Aqua watched over Ruby.

Aqua thought it was surprisingly easy to convince Miyako, though perhaps the Director had braced her for the conversation beforehand. For all of his interesting quirks, he did know how to talk to people and lead them a certain way if needed.

Still, it had been several hours since then and Ruby was still passed out in the bed. Perhaps it was exhaustion from her first time, the weight of the events prior, or a mixture of both Aqua didn't truly know. But what he did know was simple.

He was in love with Ruby.

That fact should have been obvious now, but it presented a new problem.

Aqua couldn't get any work done, not around her.

He had tried several times to go to his PC, and go back to his casual research into his father. But everytime he did, he would get a whiff of Ruby's scent, hear a light snore from her, or just casually look over and stare at her with a smile.

In the twenty minutes he had attempted to work there, light had returned to his eyes and just the sleeping form of his sister girlfriend kept distracting him, to the point where he had only gotten maybe two to three minutes of research done in that twenty minute span.

So even though being around Ruby now brought a warm feeling to his stomach he hadn't felt in a long time, he had grabbed his laptop and made his way down to the kitchen. As soon as he did so, that warm feeling in his stomach vanished, and the light in his eyes vanished to where they were again neutral, with hints of darkness, as he did his nightly research on who his father could be.

He had been at it for several hours, with a couple of breaks mixed in between to eat and watch a few youtube videos to get his mind clear once again.

His search per usual was coming up fruitless, but not all hope was lost. Namely, thanks to Akane, he had learned a few new dark websites she used to search. These websites were extremely sketchy, and the amount of advertisements to illegal activity were numerous, but they at the very least allowed him to uncover hidden message boards.

These message boards were like what was usually found on the normal web, though without any filter. Admitance of various crimes from murder, stalking, rape, drug use, ect…Ran rampent, with some even going into detail on how they committed the disgusting deeds.

While most people would be repulsed by this, Aqua was instead intrigued since it allowed him to read casual criminal confessions and learn how they thought. It was interesting study material, one that would be needed for him to reach the truth of the matter.

Finally, after hours of searching various dark forum boards, hundreds of threads…

He finally found one that truly caught his interest.

I killed an idol once

That was the thread name.

The date was late Two-Thousand and Eleven, the same year that Ai was murdered in.

One would think that this person was just attempting to garner clicks, depraved people looking to praise the killer of the most popular idol. Aqua had ran into a few of those already, and he could dismiss them since it was obvious they were ignorant of the crime that took place.

This one however….

I don't remember the exact details as I was rather high on like three to four drugs at the time, but I got a phone call earlier that day from this girl I used to date. She said something like I was suddenly a baby daddy or some shit, can you believe that? Obviously she was calling to get me into supporting her financially, and I wasn't about to do that. So I called up a buddy of mine and just a few hours later, he fucking killed her. I guess I didn't really kill her myself, but he killed her because I told him to. Then I find out she's an idol and her murder is all over the news, like wtf man!?

The forum post went on explaining how the man felt at the time, and other minute details, but that opening paragraph was all Aqua was fixated on. It had a few obvious holes, namely how Aqua knew for a fact his father had to know Ai already had kids and how he obviously knew Ai was an idol beforehand.

Still…Ai having kids was not and still isn't public knowledge, so it was a stronger lead than most others. This person had also created an account on this website instead of just being any random guest, so Aqua was able to click on it and view his other forum posts.

Nothing else he had posted necessarily contradicted what he had said back in Two-Thousand and Eleven, and the few times he was asked about his family, he would always reply with 'girls dead, kids are missing.'

It wasn't the strongest point of interest, but it was better than nothing. Aqua had decided to look at other murder reports from the year and see if any other idols had been killed, and if any were, if they had known offspring.

Not to mention if any of the killers were caught.

Even if this wasn't Ai's killer, it might be someone he could track down and get information out of since he was at one point, close to other idols.

Closing his eyes and leaning back, Aqua allowed a sigh to escape his mouth as he ran a hand over his face.

This was exhausting as always, but…It was necessary to get revenge on the man who had killed his mother, and brought him and Ruby both grief.

Aqua looked back up at the clock, and noticed it was approaching Six-Thirty already.

Classes would be starting in around two and a half hours, so he supposed he should go and wake Ruby up for school.

"Right, school…" Aqua said with a hint of disdain as he shook his head. Not only did he feel like not going back to school, but he really hoped Ruby didn't blabbermouth what had happened. Not only did he not need her friends knowing about the mysterious doctor Gouro Amamiya, but he also didn't need them knowing that said doctor had supposedly taken Ruby's innocence.

Shaking his head, Aqua closed his laptop and pushed himself up as he quickly walked up the stairs and pushed his door open.

Immediately his eyes landed on the sleeping beauty in his bed, still nude and completely passed out under the covers. Slowly the light returned to Aqua's eyes and smile graced his lips as he stared at her for a moment, before slowly walking over towards her and grabbing her shoulder as he gently shook her.

"Rub…Sarina." Catching himself as he remembered Ruby wanted him to call her Sarina, Aqua continued to shake her. "Sarina, wake up, you have to get ready for school."

"Mmm…" She let out a small groan, as her eyes slowly opened, as she weakly held her face up and suddenly smiled. "S-Sensei…"

Aqua kept his smile in return, as he ruffled her hair. "Hurry up and get up, I'll make breakfast while you get dressed."

Aqua said as he turned around to leave…Only for Ruby to grab his arm. "S-Sensei…L-Lets do it again…"

"H-Huh?" Aqua swung his face back around, surprise adorned on it before he raised his other hand and scratched the side of his cheek. "A-Again? You were just passed out for the entire night…"

"S-So I…I want to feel you sensei…" Ruby said with a hesitant but confident voice, a blush on her face as she pushed the covers down with her other arm to expose her nude body in an attempt to seduce Aqua once again.

"S-Sarina…L-Like I said, we have school in a few hours, if we do it and you pass out again…Well I'd rather not have Miyako walk in on us, we'll have to tell her one of these days but I'd rather it not be when she finds us naked in bed together."

"Mgh…" Ruby puffed her face in annoyance, causing Aqua to close his eyes and sigh as he reached over and ruffled her hair once again.

"Just because we're lovers doesn't mean we can have sex whenever we want, alright? You have to take into account location, time, and other peoples schedules. Teenagers already have to be careful with sex so not to be caught by their parents, but you're an idol and I'm an actor, not to mention our shared blood, so we can't risk nobody finding us, not even our friends. What would be an awkward walk in for most, would be an entire circus of us, understand?"

Ruby kept her puffed out face, as she looked towards the side and sighed. "You're such an old man sensei…"

"Well I would be fifty if I didn't die." Aqua snarked back, though a smile on his face as he did so as he pulled his hand free from Ruby's grasp and began to walk towards the door. "Go ahead and get dressed and meet me in the kitchen, breakfast shouldn't take long…Oh and Ruby, make sure you have your bank card and public disguise on you, you're going to the store."

"S-Store? Why?" Ruby tilted her face to the side as she pushed herself up, the covers falling off to expose her breasts as she reached up and rubbed her eyes.

Despite her top half now being visible, Aqua's face didn't blush. Instead, it got serious as his more doctorly tone took over. "You're buying pregnancy tests."

With that he left, and after a moment, Ruby went wide eyed. "E-Ehhhhh!?"


Ruby sat at her desk, her face still somewhat puffed out as she doodled on a piece of paper in front of her. After she had finally gotten out of bed, readjusted to walking for a moment, and then got dressed, she made her down the stairs to eat breakfast with Aqua.

She had always imagined that after her first time, she and Aqua would cuddle together, maybe watch a movie together, finally get something to eat as she would slowly seduce him into going once again…

She didn't exactly plan for Aqua to prepare a breakfast that was designed for women who were still young when it came to sexual actions, and then be given a lecture about when it comes to taking care of her own body.

He wrote down various fruits and vegetables she should buy…

He gave her advice on what medicine to avoid…

He even told her to buy pregnancy tests, and for once a week for the next six weeks she should test herself in case she got pregnant, a cycle that would start over if they had unprotected sex once again.

If they had protected sex, then to take a pregnancy test every two weeks for six weeks…

Ruby groaned as she dropped her pen and covered her face with her hands, annoyance written on it. Her first time was as magical as she always imagined it would be, but she didn't think Aqua would immediately go back to his more doctor role as soon as they were done. He still made it clear he loved her, and wanted to do it once again, something he affirmed by pressing her against the wall and kissing her gently across the neck before they went to school…

That thought alone made her face suddenly burst into flames.

But still, even though it was Doctor Gouro she fell in love with…

She wished he acted more like a lover than a doctor.

As she gave a sigh and leaned back into her chair, she didn't notice the sudden presence beside her until her name was suddenly called out. "Hey, Ruby."

Ruby looked up at the person who had appeared beside her, as a surprised smile came upon her face. "Oh, Arima-senpai! How are you…After yesterday?"

Kana Arima, her band mate in B-Komachi, gave a sigh and shook her head as she shrugged. "I stayed at the Directors place with Mem and the president, but nothing happened. We all played cards for a while and the Director's mom made us snacks so it could have been worse."

"Oh, well that's good, Se-...G-Gouro and I were worried about you, not to mention Oniichan as well…"

"Hmm, the Director told me it was Aqua who planned everything, namely getting him and Miyako to help with the escape and getting Amamiya to sneak into the building as the doctor. I always knew he was a good actor, but I didn't think he was some master planner for stuff like this. I guess…I'll have to tell him thanks…" Kana blushed some at her own words, as Ruby just gave a small laugh and nodded.

"Oniichan would like that! I know he doesn't want to do anything romantically with you but…He really does want to be your friend, senpai." Ruby said with a genuine smile, as Kana closed her eyes and sighed as she placed her hands behind her head.

"Yeah, yeah…" Kana said a bit disinterested, though Ruby kept her smile.

"So senpai, what's up? Rare for you to talk during class, we usually only meet up during lunch while we're at school."

"Well, I wanted to let you know I won't be able to attend our photoshoot after school tomorrow and that I'll be leaving school early today. The director of Tokyo Blade is getting onto my case so I have to attend the rehearsal tomorrow, while also going to some mini rehearsal today…Apparently they want to go over a couple of my scenes I missed out on, since the other actors have complained me not being there is throwing them off. It's just a giant pain to me, but I can't really turn them down, especially if I want to beat that witch." Kana said with a hint of disgust in her voice, flashes of a certain blue haired woman flashing through her mind.

Ruby could only give an awkward laugh as she almost immediately knew who Kana was talking about, before she just gave a slow head nod. "I think I remember Oniichan mentioning he couldn't miss any more rehearsals either, so I guess he'll be attending the one tomorrow. Miy-...Um…Mom will probably just call and reschedule the shoot since you can't attend, so I'll let Mem-Chan know…Maybe I'll attend your rehearsal and see what the play is about!"

"Huh? Figure if you had free time, you'd be spending time with Amamiya." Ruby's face got a hint of red, as she looked to the side and pressed her fingers against one another.

"U-Um Gouro is busy so…"

"Too busy to be with his girlfriend? I know he's good looking, but you shouldn't date a guy who doesn't want to be with you Ruby."

"Um, about that…" Ruby's face got even redder, her fingers still pressing against one another as her voice went to almost a whisper. "W-We got…C-Closer last night…"

"Huh? Closer?" Ruby nodded, her face getting even redder as a few awkward seconds ticked by as Kana's gears turned in her head, before finally. "W-Wait, what you and Mem were talking about…"

"W-Well, I-I didn't use a whip atleast…" Kana's eyes got wide as she took a step back, a darkening expression coming over her face. "I-I joined the club with you and Mem-Chan I guess, hehe…"

Though Ruby laughed awkwardly, Kana could feel an invisible arrow stab itself into her stomach with the word 'virgin' spread across it, as she was at a loss for words. "Y-You…A-Actually did it Ruby…?"

"Y-Yeah…" Ruby's face only got brighter as she nodded, the arrow plunging itself deeper into Kana's stomach.

"I-I see, um…W-Well um…Y-Yeah, w-welcome to the club…" Kana whispered the words out, disbelief overtaking her words as she suddenly turned and began walking away. "I-I have something to take care of Ruby…"

"Huh? Alright, have fun?" Ruby said with a bit of a questioning tone as she watched Kana walk away, her face still flushed from admitting that to Kana as she raised a finger to her chin. "Guess I should tell Mem-Chan too…Oh! She might have advice on what to do to convince sensei to stay in bed and do it with me again! Maybe I should buy a whip while I'm shopping today?"

Ruby's imagination began to run wild somewhat, as she pondered her new sexual life with Aqua and his more medical views on sexual endeavors.


The sun hung directly in the sky to indicate it was Noon as Kana walked down the street with her bag in one hand, and Tokyo Blade script in the other. She had left school just a few minutes prior, and was making her way to this scene rehearsal that a few of the other actors wanted to do since she had missed so much of the main rehearsal already.

It's not like she hadn't been studying of course, she had in her free time, and she attended at least one rehearsal a week.

But considering they had up to three or four a week, she could see the frustration from how much she had missed due to her idol duties.

As she turned the corner, she was still reading her script and therefore didn't see the person in front of her as she suddenly ran into them, causing them both to tumble to the ground. "Ack!"

Kana let out a screech as she dropped her script to the ground and rubbed her behind, as she groaned and shook her head.

"Sorry about that, I wasn't looking where I was going."

"No it's alright, I wasn't either." The woman she had run into also apologized, as they suddenly looked at each other…Before going wide eyed, and suddenly the air turned a bit sour. "Oh, Arima…"

"...Kurokawa…" The woman Kana had run into was Akane, dressed in more casual clothing that one might expect given the time of day, along with a small purse. "Tch, what are you doing on the streets? Don't you have school right now?"

"I could ask you the same you know." Akane snapped back, a hint of annoyance on her face as the two girls pushed themselves to their feet without assisting the other.

"Hmph, I have to do a few special rehearsals since I've missed so much time with B-Komachi. Honestly, I sometimes wonder why I even do that idol business considering how much time it takes away from my acting."

"Hm?" Akane raised an eyebrow, as she tilted her head to the side. "You seemed to enjoy being an idol, from the few videos I've seen of you and the group."

"I mean, I don't have it but…It's not exactly something I plan to do long term. As soon as my acting takes off…" Kana let her words die, the implications clear as Akane just gave a small nod of her head. "In any case, you didn't answer my question, why aren't you in school?"

"Well if you really must know, I took the day off to run a few errands for Producer Kaburagi. I asked for some…Information, you could say, so in exchange I have to do a couple of things for him. I told my school that it's a part of my career so I was able to get it excused, though I do feel a little bad for taking off."

"Kaburagi? What kind of information could you need from him?" Kana said with a somewhat curious tone, though Akane just gave a small fake smile and shrugged.

"Just some acting stuff." Kana didn't buy for a second Akane's half-assed excuse, though she didn't have a chance to follow up on it as Akane moved the conversation in another direction. "By the way, Arima…Is Ruby and Mem-Cho alright?"

"Huh? Alright?"

"Yeah, from that crooked child producer and all…Aqua told me about it, and had me help look up information on them after all." It was Kana's turn to raise an eyebrow, albeit more so in surprise. "So I hope the three of you are safe and all."

"Well, I went to school today didn't I? Shouldn't that answer that?" Kana said with an annoyed tone, though Akane's glare compelled her to keep going. "Tch, well…We're fine, Aqua sure got quite the cast together though. Director Gotanda, the president, that Gouro doctor or whatever…"

"Gouro…" Akane let the words slip off her lips, as Kana nodded and shrugged.

"He's Ruby's boyfriend, though I have to say her taste in men was not what I expected. I always thought she would be into pretty boy band types or whatever, not some attractive but relatively normal doctor guy. I didn't seem him after that though, Mem-Cho and I went back to the Director's place with the president while…Ruby and Amamiya went back to their house apparently…"

Kana's face blushed some as she remembered her conversation with Ruby, though Akane's thoughts were elsewhere as she just gave a small nod in response. "I see, did…Did Amamiya-san seem…Different?"

"Huh? How would I know, I've never met him before."

"...I see…" Akane's eyes turned towards the side, an internal sigh of relief escaping that Aqua was able to fool her with his disguise and acting. "Well…I'm glad you and the others are safe atleast."

"Really? Thought you would be glad if something happened to me, then the spotlight would be all yours." Kana said with a bit of smugness in her voice, though Akane gave a glare in response.

"Do you really think I have such horrible thoughts Arima? I may not like you, but I would never want something to happen to you personally. When it comes to the spotlight, I intend to defeat you with my own acting ability!" Akane spoke with confidence in her voice, as Kana turned her attention back towards her and sighed.

"Well no I guess you wouldn't wish death on anyone. Still, with how things are going, you won't have any problem surpassing me in Tokyo Blade anyway."

"Huh?" Akane was taken aback by Kana's words, as she had prepared herself for a quick rebuttal from the usually smug and foul mouthed former child actress, yet she instead simply yielded immediately.

"I mean think about it, nobody cares about me as an actress anymore. Whenever I ego-surf myself online, it's always about my acting ability and nothing more. Maybe occasionally somebody will post my former roles on twitter, but the replies are always filled with 'yeah but she's so much better as an idol, especially when she's right next to two other beautiful girls!' and things of that nature. Even in Tokyo Blade, I'm an afterthought compared to the cast…You and Aqua as the hot teen stars fresh off of that reality dating show, Taiki Himekawa the award winning actor, Sakuya Kamoshida who was a runner up a few years ago for best newcomer…I'm there to be a big supporting name, nothing else…" Kana's expression darkened as Akane just stared at her, almost at a loss for words at the truth bomb Kana just laid out for all to hear.

"Arima…You say that, but you're still one of the best actors in the entire play! Even as a supporting character, you can steal the show and-"

"Steal the show?" Kana interrupted with a dark undertone, before giving a small chuckle. "If I steal the show, it's because all of you got sick and had the worst performance of your life. Even if I can outshine you Akane, I still have to hold myself up to match the other greats. Even Aqua…Has been better than me since we were kids."

Flashes of Aqua, the genius child actor who stunned her all those years ago flashed through her head, as Akane just kept staring with an almost disturbed and pitiful look. "I…Almost wonder if Aqua-kun wants to be an actor, with how I've heard him talk sometimes. He's only doing this play because Producer Kaburagi told him to."

"Is that supposed to make me feel better? Knowing that someone who doesn't give a shit is better than me?"

"No that wasn't what I…" Akane stopped herself and gave a sigh, as she reached over and Grabbed Kana's shoulders. "I just meant that you can't compare yourself to the stars of today, because your goal should be as the star of the future. Even if Aqua-kun is quickly becoming a big time actor, if he suddenly quit acting…It wouldn't matter a couple of years from now."

"Star of the future huh?" Kana let the words slip from her lips as she sighed herself, before shaking her head. "I don't even know why I'm talking about this with you, I have a rehearsal to get to."

"..." Akane didn't say anything as Kana began to walk past her, making her way to her original destination. "Arima!"

Kana stopped at the sound of Akane's voice, barely turning her head around.

"You better not have a loser's attitude if you want to outshine me! I fully expect your best!" Akane yelled out with a small smile, as Kana just listened to her before turning her head back around and continuing on, as Akane let herself relax some and run a hand through her hair. "She sure has changed…"

That was all Akane said as she turned around and continued on her way also, the noon sun still hanging above.


Couple Hours Later

"Geez, I can't believe sensei is making me go shopping for this…" Ruby said in a low voice, a small blush appearing on her face as her conversation with Aqua from earlier ran through her head. She stood in front of a pharmacy, as she was disguised with a baseball cap, her blond hair tied up, eyes covered with sunglasses and a leather jacket and black pants.

"Ah don't be sad Ruby, my boyfriend asked me the same thing, though I came prepared of course!" The one beside Ruby was Mem-Cho, her bright and bubbly personality active as always as she looked at the girl with a cat-like look. She was also disguised, a fedora covering her hair, along with sunglasses, a face mask, an American shirt and blue jeans.

"Mm, even still…Gouro is a doctor, so he's always been one to recommend healthy stuff and practices, but I didn't think he would immediately do that after our first time…" Ruby gave a small sigh as the two girls walked into the pharmacy together, passing by mostly older people as they made their way to the women's health section.

"Well I guess that's the disadvantage of dating a medical student, although…" A smirk appeared on Mem-Cho's face as she pushed herself close to Ruby and whispered. "How was it? Did he know his stuff?"

"W-What!? M-Mem-Chan!" Mem-Cho gave a laugh and stuck her tongue out, as Ruby's face blushed a deep red as she looked away. "Geez…H-He did know what he was doing, yeah…He pretty much lead the entire way, not letting me…P-Pleasure him, instead he just took charge…"

Ruby's deep red face only got redder as she spoke, as Mem-Cho gave a nod and a snicker. "I see, I see, so not the masochist type? A shame…Ah well, I'm glad you at least had somebody with experience for your first time. The guy who took mine had no idea what he was doing and that led to a very awkward experience…"

Mem-Cho gave a sigh as her teenage memories rushed back to her, as Ruby raised an eyebrow. "If you don't mind me asking Mem-Chan, who was it?"

"Ohh? Curious about my sex life? Want tips for you and Amamiya-kun?"

"N-No! I-I um…W-Well…M-Maybe a little…" Mem-Cho gave a snicker, as she wrapped an arm around Ruby's shoulder.

"Well, I was about your age during my first time. The boy I did it with was named Kazeno-kun, who was the captain of the cheer club at Shuchi'in Academy at the time. At the time, I was still following my dream of being an idol when I met him at one of the auditions. He was there cheering on all of the auditioners, and the two of us started talking for a bit and from there it continued on for quite a while before we finally started dating. Since I was trying to become an idol still at the time, he had to keep our relationship a secret. We usually would just visit each other's houses, sneak out at night to the park or just talk on the phone for hours at a time. It was simple, but we were happy with one another."

As Mem-Cho spoke, Ruby just stared at her with wide eyes, a sparkle in them as she responded. "Y-You were living the ideal romantic life! I see it all the time in books and TV Shows! Rejected by society, two star crossed lovers but love in secret! I-It's so romantic!"

"Hehe, well…Being a teenager is the perfect time to live a romantic life, since you don't have all of the burdens of adulthood. For about a year, we were living an ignorant romantic life together. Then…Mom collapsed…" Mem-Cho's voice got a bit dark, as Ruby's stargazing was interrupted as her expression turned serious. "After that happened, as you know, my idol career came to an end and I started working two, three, even four jobs at points to help around the house. Kazeno-kun promised to help however he could and he also started working also, but…It was getting to him, I could tell. He always smiled and was upbeat with me, but I could see the fatigue in his eyes, the bruises on his hands, the way he barely held himself awake. It hurt to see him like that, so…I broke it off, for his own sake."

Mem-Cho's eyes had a hint of sadness in them, as Ruby reached over and rubbed a hand on her shoulder, her tone soft. "I-I'm sorry Mem-Chan, I didn't mean to bring up bad memories."

"N-No it's fine Ruby, I've moved on but…You always remember your first. Still, I've had a few other boyfriends but I'm living the single life now! Funny enough, I'm an idol now so I wonder…If Kazeno-kun is a fan." Mem-Cho had a small smile graced her lips, as Ruby noticed it before nodding.

"I just know he is Mem-Chan! Sensei told me he would be my biggest fan once I became an idol, so I worked every single day, not giving up until…I became the idol he always wanted! So if Kazeno-kun is a fan of idols, I'm sure you're his favorite idol in the whole world right now!"Though a bit taken aback by Ruby's enthusiasm, Mem-Cho gave a genuine smile and nod.

"Yeah, I'm sure he is." The two girls smiled at each other as they kept walking, before Mem-Cho decided to lighten the mood some. "If you don't mind me asking, why do you call Gouro sensei? Is that like…A kink thing?"

"W-What!? N-No! It's because um…H-He really guided me through life when I was younger! T-There's nothing but respect!" Mem-Cho stuck her tongue out once again as she laughed at the younger teenager, who only pouted some as she looked away. "Y-You mentioned you and Kazeno-kun did couple stuff alot, w-what else did you do? L-Like, I…Want to do cute couple stuff with sensei…"

"Hm, well you have basic stuff like cuddling, kissing, holding hands, laying on each other, feeding each other, just chilling with each other…Whenever I had a long day of Idol rehearsal, I would always lay my head in Kazeno-kuns lap and he would stroke my hair. Sometimes we talked, sometimes I just relaxed, but either way it was always something to look forward to after a long day." Ruby gave a slow nod, as they finally arrived at the shelf with various pregnancy tests adorning it as she thought about doing that with Aqua, her face heating up as she did so.

"I-I want to do that with Sensei…"

"I'm sure he wouldn't mind, even though he's all about being a doctor and all, I'm sure he still wants to do cute couple stuff as you called it. Afterall, he's a guy, and what guy doesn't want his girlfriend spending time and doing stuff with him? Next time you see him, you should do something before even saying anything."

"Like what?"

"Like…If he's standing up, jump into his arms and force him to catch you! If he's sitting down, jump into his lap and cuddle! If he's laying on the couch, jump onto him and snuggle in! Just be creative, guys love it when the girl takes charge!"

"Be creative huh…" Various thoughts ran through Ruby's head, as Mem-Cho suddenly reached forward and grabbed one of the brands on the shelf.

"This is the one I use! Hasn't given me a false positive yet!"

"I see, Sensei told me to buy six of them…"

"Well, there's two in a case. Did he mean six tests or six all together?" Ruby shrugged, as Mem-Cho raised a nail and scratched her cheek. "Geez Doctors are difficult…Let's just get three for now, so six total!"

Ruby just nodded as she watched Mem-Cho grab them off of the shelf, other various thoughts running through her head.

Namely ideas on 'cute couple stuff' to do with Aqua.


1 Hour later

Aqua sat quietly on the couch, manga in hand and still fully dressed in his school outfit. He had gotten home a tad early, and with Miyako out and about he decided to relax and just enjoy his manga that he rarely got to read anymore. Whether it was hunting down his father, his acting career, his relationship with Ruby, or whatever other thing came up, he rarely had time for himself anymore.

Still, as a doctor he knew it was important to relax and let the brain calm down. If he spent every waking moment of free time searching for his father, he would become fatigued which could impact his ability to find him.

As he flipped through his manga, he ran a finger down one of the panels as he closed his eyes and shook his head. "Detective powers like a perfect disguise or the ability to see past crime scenes…Those would be useful…"

Perhaps reading detective manga though, wasn't the best idea.

As he flipped through another page and continued reading, the door to the room suddenly opened and after a moment, the sound of footsteps carried their owner into the room before they stopped and called out to him. "Sensei!"

"Hm? Oh, welcome home." Aqua raised a hand towards her, his eyes brightening at the site of his girlfriend Ruby. "Did you buy what I told you to?"

"I did, along with a few extra stuff Mem-Chan recommended." Aqua raised an eyebrow, as Ruby went through her bag and began reading it out. "Let's see…Flavored condoms, flavored lube, viagra, handcuffs, and-"

"Wait a minute, Ruby…" Aqua stopped her from continuing, as he rubbed his fingers over his eyes. "Flavored condoms and lube…? Why would either one be required, it's very unlikely for a man's penis to go inside a person's mouth if it had either applied to it."

"Hm? She said something about if I wanted to take charge to use them! Same for the handcuffs, though I don't know why I would need to handcuff you sensei…" Ruby said with legitimate curiosity in her voice, as Aqua just let a tired sigh escape his lips.

"Perhaps you should…Avoid Mem-Cho from now on when it comes to matters of the bedroom. Just talk to me, I studied sex in medical school ranging from diseases, penetration angles that could result in problems, birth control, protective measures, and plenty more." As Aqua spoke it all to Ruby, she just stared at him before sighing herself.

"You really are an old man sensei…" Shaking her head, Ruby placed the bag onto the table as she walked over to Aqua and sat beside him as she wrapped her arms around his and laid her head on his shoulder. "Mmm, at least you're a comfortable old man, sensei."

"Well atleast I have that going for me." Aqua gave a small joke as he closed his manga and placed it beside him on the couch, as he reached over and stroked Ruby's hair, which earned a purr of approval from her. "In any case, I may be an old man but I don't plan to make the same mistakes most teenagers make when it comes to this stuff. As long as you follow my advice, the chances of you becoming pregnant are slim."

"Slim huh…" Ruby trailed off as she kept her head on Aqua's shoulder, slightly turning it to lock eyes with him. "Sensei…If I did become pregnant, what would you do?"

"Hm? What would I do?" Ruby nodded, as Aqua narrowed his eyes at her before looking towards the side. "Well…As a doctor, my advice would be that the final decision rests in your hands on weather to have the baby or not-"

"That's not what I mean sensei." Ruby said as she pushed herself up as she climbed onto Aqua's lap, pressing her hands against his shoulders as she faced him. "As a father, what would you do?"

"As a…Father?" Aqua avoided eye contact with her, his eyes narrowing as he felt his heart rate begin to speed up. "I-..."

Aqua…Ruby…I love you…

Suddenly Ai's words flashed through his head, her dying words to him and Ruby as he felt his chest tighten. Biting down onto his lip, Aqua continued to avoid eye contact as he attempted to find the right words. "I…Don't know."

"You don't know?" Ruby leaned in closer, her voice gentle as she also seemed to be holding herself back. "It's not a decision I would want to make alone you know, I would want you to be involved in the process sensei."

"..."

"I mean, it should be an easy decision right? I just have to take the pregnancy tests and if it comes back positive, take the pill right? No need for surgery or anything! Although, if I'm being honest…" Ruby gave a soft smile as she touched her head to Aqua's, causing him to gently turn it back around and stare her in the eyes. "I…Wouldn't want to do that."

"You wouldn't?" Ruby shook her head back and forth, as she reached up and wrapped her arms around Aqua's neck.

"I mean, if Mama decided not to have us, where would we be now? Would we be together? Would we even be alive in the first place? It's kinda scary to think about huh? Stuff like that makes me think, like…What if I had your child sensei? And…What if that child was somebody just like us? Somebody whose life was cut short, but given another chance through us? Somebody like…" Ruby allowed her words to die, not finishing what she wanted to say, yet Aqua understood the implication as he reached up and cupped her cheek.

"If you're that worried about it, I wouldn't stop you from having the kid you know. I'm…Not sure If I'm really cut out for parenthood, can't say I ever raised kids before…Well, except for one loud mouthed brat who kept going on how she was going to become an idol when she got older, I practically had to raise her when she was younger."

"Loud mouthed…H-Hey! You're talking about me!"

"Who can say?" Aqua smirked at her while Ruby pouted, though after a moment, the two of them began to laugh, their heads still touching as Aqua wrapped his arms around Ruby's waste and held her close to him. "I…Love you, Sarina."

"Mmm, I love you even more, sensei." Ruby said as her eyes half closed as she gently leaned in…Before closing all the way as her lips met Aqua's, the two of them gently kissing one another on the couch as it slowly got more and more spicy, before eventually…

"S-Sensei…" Ruby whispered in Aqua's ear as her shirt was pulled off, her breasts hidden behind her pink bra as she leaned in and allowed her hot breath to wash over his ears. "S-Should I grab the flavored condoms?"

"L-Let's just stick to regular ones, Ruby…" Was all Aqua could say without ruining the moment with a long sigh, as the intimate moment between the twins continued on from there, ending with another passed out Ruby, and Aqua ensuring no evidence was left behind on the couch.


The Next Day

The sun hung high in the sky as Aqua and Ruby walked down the street, both of them still in their school uniforms as they headed towards the one place Aqua had been dreading to return to. "Man this is exciting sensei! Getting to watch you act!"

"It's just rehearsal."

"Still, I hardly ever get to see you do it, you know? Other than the reality dating show which was…Kinda creepy sensei, and also kinda pisses me off that you kissed Akane-Chan." Ruby glared at Aqua, who just rolled his eyes.

"Please don't become like Arima, I have enough Tsunderes in my life already."

"Eh? Tsundere? I-I'm not a manga character, sensei!" Ruby slapped her hand across Aqua's shoulder, causing him to rub it though moreso playing along with the irony of it all as they turned a corner on the street. "In any case, I also get to watch Kana-Chan! Ohh! Maybe B-Komachi can promote the play! It would get Kana-Chan exposure, and also make us look good after the play kills it, right?"

"Well, not a bad idea I guess. I would talk to Miyako about it, at the very least, she'll give you better advice than I can. I'm still trying to get over the fact My Space doesn't exist anymore."

"Uh sensei, My Space still exists…"

"It's not the same as it once was." Aqua played it up a bit, before giving another small smile to Ruby who returned it in full. "Anyway, here we are…"

The two of them stopped in front of a huge building, other people walking around it as Ruby looked up at it. The "Lala Lai Theatrical Company…Bigger than I thought."

"Eh, it's smaller inside…Let's go."

"R-Right!" Ruby nodded as she followed Aqua inside, as the rehearsal for the Tokyo Blade Stage Arc was finally underway.
