A/N: This chapter takes place after the Precures defeated Proto Jikochuu

Rikka's POV

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock beeping, on an early Saturday morning.

I had nothing else to do today, my mom was working and my dad was out of town.

I decided to go on a walk.

"Good Morning Rikka -Quel!" said Raquel in a cheery voice.

"Good Morning Raquel!" I said, with a bright smile.

"Is it all right if I can go see Shararu at Mana's place?" He asked.

"Oh course! Go right ahead! Just stay out of trouble okay?"

"Okay!"

I watched my little pixie partner fly happily out the window. I then got changed and went outside.

I started walking around the neighbourhood. One by one houses pass behind me. I continued waking until I felt... a familiar aura... as if.... someone that I knew was... here...

I hope this will make you smile...

I flinched and I turned around. I heard a voice in my ear, but no one was behind me...

I started to feel a little bit confused...

But then... the voice was back...

To be young and in love in New York City...

I turned again.... but no one was there...

To not know who I am but still know that I'm good as long your here with me...

I started to feel a little anxious.. who was singing to me..?

To be drunk and in love in New York City...

Midnight through the morning coffee...
Burning through the hours talking...

I turned again... and my hands clapped to my mouth

Damn...

And then.. at that moment... I saw the one person I least expected....

I like me better when I'm with you...

Sitting on a branch of a tree

I like me better when I'm with you..

"I-I-
My voice trembled

I knew from the first time, I'd stay for a long time cause...

Then he teleported..

I turned trying to look for him.. right, left. But then I felt arms locked around me.

He caught me by surprise

I like me better when...

He stared at the ground, I couldn't tell what expression he was wearing.

I like me better when

.. he looked up at me, and smiled sweetly

I'm with you...

"W-Why are y-you-

He couldn't let me talk properly, his smile was just to much for me. I started crying

I like me, I like me,

Then a blush spread across his face..

Did he actually.. have.. feelings for me...?

I dunno what it is but I got that feeling...

I still stared at him.. tears running down my eyes...

Waking up in this bed, next to you, swear the room yeah it's got no ceiling...

If we lay, let the day just pass us by...

I might get to too much talking...
I might have to tell you something...

Then he blushed even more.. which made me laugh a bit

Damn...

I like me better when I'm with you...

I couldn't believe that this was happening

I like me better when I'm with you

I tried closing my eyes then opening them, but he was still there

I knew from the first time, I'd stay for a long time cause..

I like me better when...

Then he... came closer... and did something that surprised me

I like me better when I'm with you...

He kissed me!

I felt warmth through my body, I felt nostalgic as his lips touched mine.

I like me, I like me

For the first time, I actually felt so happy that wanted to keep crying forever.

To think that Ira.... out of all people.... was the one doing this 😉

Then our lips parted... and he locked his arms around me once again.

I like me, I like me,

Stay a while, stay a while, stay here with me...

I wish this moment lasted forever

Stay a while, stay a while, oh

I hugged him tighter

Stay a while stay while, stay here with me

Lay We with me, yeah, yeah ooh!

I like me better when I'm with you
(Yes I do, Yes I do, babe)

I like me better when I'm with you

Then he looked up at me, I looked up at him

I knew from the first time, I'd stay for a like time cause

He wiped my tears, I laughed a bit

I like me better when,

I like me better when I'm with you

I didn't care if anyone was looking, i knew that the moment was too precious

I like me, I like me

Then he stopped hugging me... He turned away, and started walking...

I continued to watch him walk away

I like me better when I'm with you!

He teleported. I felt a little sad to see him go. But I knew.... very soon... I'll be seeing him again 😊
