Subaru's POV
It's been a week since I last saw her.

I must've scared her back at my house.

I was finally allowed to continue my idol activities. And returning when Christmas is nearing, is big no for me!

Everyone's rushing when it comes to ocassions, so I if I'm going to end my leave, probably three months before the ocassion.

My aikatsu phone suddenly rang. I picked it up, "Hello." I greeted on the line.

"Subaru..." Once again, her pleasant voice rang through my ears. "Yume."

"Can I go to your dorm?" She asked. "Huh? You know that's not allowed." I said.

Someone knocked on my door all of a sudden, on the other line of the call, "I don't care, now let me in." She demanded.

Wait, she's outside my door already?!

I opened door and there I saw, Yume in her Venus Ark uniform. I sighed in disbelief, "You really have to call?" I asked through my phone. She nodded with a smile then hung up.

She walked in my room normally then sat on my bed, "Don't you want me here?" She asked with a sinister smile.

I put my phone down on the study table and laughed sarcastically, "Of course I want to, but, aren't you shocked or afraid at me after what happened a week ago?" I asked worried as I sat down beside her.

She shook her head, "Not at all. I got a feeling you were going through something." She said.

I stared at her, surprised.

"So tell me what are you going through?" She asked eagerly and worried.

I looked down.

I can't tell her.

Not yet.

She is not ready.

She won't bear it.

Instead of speaking, I immediately pulled her towards me and landed my lips on hers.

I pushed her down on my bed gently while kissing her soft lips, as me on top and her on the bottom.

I can't let her know.

I tempted her lips to part open and so she did. My tongue explores the inside and I swore I heard her moan.

I broke the kiss in need of oxygen as I stared to her eyes. Her eyes gazed back at me, she's blushing and her breathing in an unusual pace. So is mine.

"Subaru, no matter how many times you try to hide it by kissing me, your kisses, actions and eyes say it all." She said as cups my cheeks, "Tell me."

I shook my head as tears slowly appear, "Yume, I don't have to tell you. All I want right now is your answer to my proposal." I said, "I want to be with you forever, I want to marry you." I added with a shaky voice.

She smiled, "I will marry you. But I can't do it, if you're not honest." She said with a concern voice.

I kiss her once more as she kisses back. This ardent make out session continues until we both need to pull away for air.

"Yume..." I mumbled her name as I lie down beside her and hug her, closing my eyes, falling asleep.

Yume's POV
He fell asleep.

I stared at his handsome face as I get the urge to kiss him.

I kissed his forehead, "Don't worry me." I whispered to his sleeping figure.

My eyes felt heavy and soon closed them falling asleep.

Nozomu's POV
Az I entered the dorm with Aria, I noticed her looking....bothered?

"You okay?" I asked. She looks up to me, "I'm just worried about Yume-chan." She replied, "She hasn't been herself lately." She added.

"Hm, looks like she and Subaru have a problem." I said, "Subaru hasn't been himself lately also." I added.

I gestured Aria to sit on the couch while I go prepare something to eat. I soon finished preparing and went back to the living room, not a sight of my fiancèe anywhere.

"Aria?" I called. "Up here." Aria called from the stairs. She went upstairs again and I followed her there.

"I discovered this." She said as she peeks inside Subaru's room. I also did and find Subaru and Yume cuddling.

"Seems like I'm not the only one having my love over." I muttered. Aria blushed a bit from my statement then shook her head to get rid of it.

I disregarded this and stared at the couple on the bed. I shrugged, "Food is ready." I whispered to Aria.

We both went downstairs.

Subaru's POV
I opened my eyes only to see Yume asleep infront of me. I smiled.

"Beautiful." I said.

Oh, how I wanted her so much.

She soon opened her eyes, then stared at me.

I smirked, "Are you just going to stare at me 'til I'm naked?" I asked in a joking manner.

Her cheeks burned red as I laugh.

"I-I have no idea what you're talking about." She stuttered.

We heard another laughter coming from downstairs. We went downstairs and saw Aria and Nozomu.

"Oi! What are you two doing?" I asked. "Breathing." Nozomu replied. I laughed sarcastically, "Very funny." I said with sarcasm.

"He's telling me some...whatchamacallit." Aria said. "Pick-up lines." Nozomu added.

Pick-up lines? Oh those cheesy lines....

Aria looked at the time, "It's getting late, I have to get going. See you tomorrow." She said as she kisses Nozomu.

"I have to go also." Yume said.

"Huh? No, goodbye kiss?" I pouted like a child. She giggled as she pecks on my cheek.

After that, it's just me and Nozomu.

"You're not telling Yume?" He asked. I shook my head, "Not yet." I said and started walking to the staircase.

"If you love her, you should tell her." Nozomu said, "Who knows, you might not be with her in your next life." He added.

I stopped in my tracks as I look at him.

"Do you love her?" He asked. "Yes!" I answered. "Do you want her to be yours?" He asked. "Of course I do!" I replied.

His third question caught me off guard, "Do you want her so badly?"

For a moment, time stopped then ran again.

I looked down, "So much, very much." I said, "But, I'm scared."

"I know love can be scary, but a love for a person won't be memorable if you don't risk." Nozomu said.

My heart beats faster.

"If...if only...I..." I lost my words then ran to my room.

Yume...

I love you really...

But then, fate works differently for us...

I'm done!!
So...like I promised in the previous book...something will happen between Yume and Subaru.

And yes, I've been putting a lot of problems in this book. Why?

Simple, cause remember I said I'm going to make a prequel? In the prequel, you will see the main root of all these problems. Including Subaru's sickness.
