CHAPTER 6

It's Saturday afternoon a week after the party, after the talk with Okatsu everything went back to normal. We still have school which made us a little busy but not enough that we can't relax and since me and Ibuki are free we decided that we could have a date today. It's already nine o clock and our meeting time is nine thirty I started walking towards our meeting place.

"Mune!" I shouted jogging towards him.

"I'm not late aren't I?" I asked.

"No your not I'm just early" Ibuki said grinning and I smiled at him, he took my hand and I suddenly felt a nostalgia.

I gripped his hand tighter as we walked towards his motorbike once the engine started I leaned my head against his back and wrapped my arms around his chest and stomach and I snuggled against his back. It's at this kind of things that I could forget Shindou Takuto the person I fell in love with. Once we got there we saw that the place is packed with people.

"Woah! Look at the line it's so long! You sure you want to come here? We could go some other time and just go somewhere else?" Ibuki suggested.

"No, it's ok I really want to go here. Imagine a zoo and an amusement park combined together anyone would love that! I also heard that they have a sea lion and dolphin show this evening and a firework too!" I said enthusiastically gripping Ibuki tightly.

"Please Mune please!" I begged using my puppy eyes looking at him pleadingly and Ibuki turned around blushing.

'Cute!' I thought as I saw him sighing in defeat finally agreeing. True the line was long but before you know it were already inside.

"Well that was quicker than I thought" Ibuki said looking around amazed at the place.

"It's worth the wait right" I grinned at him, he took my hand we both started walking while looking at the map.

"Hey look monkeys!" I said excitedly and dragged Ibuki with me.

"Woah! Calm down Ranmaru they're not going anywhere! Slow down!" Ibuki said as I dragged him towards the monkeys.

Once we got there there wasn't too much to see since almost most of the monkeys are too lazy to move and those who did move didn't move from their place too much.

"So that's why there aren't too much people here" I said a little disappointed.

"Zoo monkeys are boring since they don't do much" Ibuki said looking lazily at them.

"Let's go somewhere else like the lions, tigers, or somewhere where the animals aren't lazy" Ibuki suggested while pointing at the monkeys.

But before I could could answer something passed by Ibuki's head and both of us were shocked. We looked at the monkeys and all of them were standing, jumping and making noise wildly. They started throwing things at us.

"Run!" Ibuki shouted grabbing my hand and we both started running while trying to dodge the things that they were throwing at us.

"Woah the heck is that about!?" Ibuki complained once we stopped running.

"Maybe they got mad by what you said" I suggested.

"What! It's not like they could understand us!" Ibuki retorted.

"Monkeys are actually smart you know" I retorted back.

"Yeah yeah what ever so where do you want to go next?" Ibuki asked.

"Tigers let's go to the tigers!" I answered enthusiastically and started to drag him again.

"Ok, everyone please be careful once the saliva stick onto you the smell would stay for three days so please don't touch the fence" the tour guide said.

"We better be careful then Mune" I said looking outside to see the tigers. We were riding a vehicle that is shielded by a fence..

"This is cool!" Ibuki said looking enthusiastically outside to see many tigers around us.

"Excuse me sir's want to see a tiger up close?" The tour guide asked.

"Yes!" We both exclaimed excitedly. So we gave him some space he took out a meat and put it outside the fence and a minute later a tiger close in on us .

"Woah! They're so big!" I exclaimed at how big the tiger is on close proximity.

"Amazing!" Is the only thing Ibuki could say, eyes wide his lips smiling at excitement. After that we started walking around more.

"Let's ride a rollercoaster!" I exclaimed amd Ibuki nodded.

"Woah! Waaahh! Aaahhh!" As the rollercoaster go left and right quickly changing direction.

"Where do you wanna ride next?" Ibuki asked looking at me. Both of us are having so much fun.

"Flying Fiesta?" I suggested unsure looking at him.

"Flying Fiesta it is!" Grinning at me taking my hand and we both went to the flying fiesta.

"Wwwhhhaaa!" The people screamed riding the ride.

"That was fun!" I exclaimed still hyper about the ride.

"But not as scary as the roller coaster it was kind of boring though" Ibuki said a little disappointed.

"At least you had fun right?" I said smiling up at him and he grinned back. And we rode many rides and looked at more animals until it was evening already.

"Everyone for those who want to watch the sea lion and dolphin show please proceed to the stage" a voice speaker said.

"It's starting soon come on!" And we both started to run towards the stage using the map we got when we entered the place.

Once we got there it was already packed with people and only few sits were left and is decreasing by the minute.

"There come on Mune before someone sits there!" I said grabbing his hand and quickly dragging him down towards the seats.

"Safe!" I exclaimed as me and Ibuki sat down.

"Found one!" Exclaimed a familiar voice. My eyes widen and I slowly turned around.

"Kirino!" the familiar voice exclaimed.

Shindou Takuto P.O.V

It's Saturday afternoon a week after the party, ever since I found out that I still have feelings for Kirino I felt guilty, frustrated and sad since Okatsu is already my girlfriend yet my heart belongs to Kirino. If I don't do something quickly it will be a matter of time before I do something that I might regret, a few days after the party I asked Okatsu out on a date. And since we started dating in Spain it will be our first time dating here in Japan I wanted it to be special. I drove my car near the train station to fetch Okatsu. A few minutes later I saw her going down the stairs of the train station.

"Okatsu!" I called as I drove my car in front of her and smile up at her.

"Takuto!" Okatsu exclaimed smiling back.

"Get in" I said and she went inside.

"So where are we going Takuto?" OKatsu asked excitedly since this is going to be our first date here back in Japan making me just as excited and happy too.

"You'll see" I smirk which made her blush.

'How cute' I thought and I started the engine going to our destination.

"Wow! There are so many people here" Okatsu exclaimed her eyes sparkling in excitement. And we both lined-up and after a few minutes of waiting we were already inside.

"So where should we go?" I asked looking at her as she is looking in the map.

"How about the goat?" She suggested looking up at me and I nodded my head.

"Uuwwaahh! Takuto aren't they cute" Okatsu said happily leaning against the rail.

"You could feed them" the caretaker said.

"Really? Yehey!" Okatsu said before going inside leaving me behind.

"Okatsu wait!" I shouted jogging behind her.

"Ssoo ccuuttee!" she's like in heaven as she bottle feed them with milk and many goats were coming to her, but since she only have one bottle she can only feed one while I just watched from the sideline.

"Woah!" I exclaimed as one goat leaped towards me and I took a step back.

"Mmmeeehhh!" it said and I look at it in shock and confusion.

"It must be hungry here" Okatsu said giving me a bottle of milk and I started feeding it and then most of the goats went to me. In the end me and Okatsu had fun feeding them.

"Hey look Takuto peacocks and flamingo's! Aren't they're feathers so beautiful especially the peacocks!" as she stared at them in admiration. After that we decided to ride some.

"Hey why don't we try riding some after all this is also an amusement park"

"Of course if that's so why not the spinning teacup" Okatsu suggested and I nodded my head and went there.

"Wwwiiieeehhh!" Okatsu exclaimed as she spins our teacup laughing giddily.

"Where do you want to go next?" I asked as I enjoyed myself too.

"How about bumper cars?" I suggested and she agreed and started dragging me.

"This is fun!" Okatsu shouted After that we rode many more rides and looked at more animals until it was evening already.

"Everyone for those who want to watch the sea lion and dolphin show please proceed to the stage" a voice speaker said.

"What's that?" Okatsu asked.

"Apparently every weekend there's a sea lion and dolphin show want to watch?" I answered asking her if she wants to watch.

"Yes! Why not" and started walking while looking at the map on where the stage is.

Once we got there it was already packed with people and only few sits were left and is decreasing by the minute.

"Takuto there! Okatsu exclaimed pointing at the vacant seats in the middle.

"Found one!" I exclaimed as the two of us sat quickly.

"Safe!" Exclaimed a familiar voice. And I slowly turned around.

"Shindou!" the familiar voice exclaimed.

Narrator's P.O.V

Both of them were so shock that it took them a full minute before they got fully recovered from it. Once they came back from their shock they didn't know what to say unlike they're lovers.

"Oh! Shindou Okatsu hey!" Ibuki greeted breaking the silence, wrapping his arms around Kirino's shoulder.

"Hello to you too, here on a date?" Okatsu asked wrapping her arms around Shindou's shoulder holding his hand tightly.

"Yep! Yes we are!" smiling at them.

"Same here!" Okatsu giggled. Before they could continue their conversation the person on the stage suddenly spoke. and everyone even them looked in the front.

"Ok ladies and gentlemen I hope you like our show for today!" the person in front said and everyone applause in excitement.

As the show went on the whole stage was loud since everyone was having fun, everyone except for four people who had an awkward aura surrounding them not helping the fact that Kirino and Shindou are seated together.

"That's all for today folks! Until next time!" the caretaker said bidding good bye. It was already afternoon when the show ended

"Wasn't it fun Takuto?" Okatsu asked trying to lighten the mood.

"Yeah it was" Takuto said forcefully smiling at her.

"Hey Ranmaru want to ride more rides?" Ibuki asked wanting to separate from Shindou and Okatsu.

"Yeah sure!" Kirino answered just going with the flow of his boyfriend. And as the four stood up and walk towards the exit, people were swarming to go outside that they got separated with each other.

"Ah! Mune!? Mune?! Where are you Mune!?" Kirino shouted looking around as he was being pushed by the people exiting the stage.

"Okatsu! Okatsu! Okatsu!?" Shindou shouted looking around aimlessly until someone bumped in front of him.

"Shindou!" Kirino gasped as he looked up to apologize.

"Kirino?!" but before the two could talked they are being pushed by the swarming people around them. Shindou wrapped his arms around Kirino's waist while Kirino clutched on tightly on Shindou's shirt as they both started walking towards the exit, once they were outside a little far away from the exit they breathe in relief.

"Well, at least now were out" Kirino said in relief resting his head in relief.

"Yeah" resting his head on Kirino's head.

'Shindou's heartbeat's so relaxing' Kirino thought sighing in content.

'Kirino's hair scent still hasn't change it's still strawberry' Shindou thought unconsciously smiling. Both of them jolted back to reality when their cellphones ringed and they suddenly let go of each other, blushing in embarrassment.

"Uh.. Mune where are you?" Kirino asked as his cheeks is tainted in red.

"I'm here.. near the...!" Ibuki shouted trying to form words as the peoples voices on the other side were loud.

"What? I can't hear you?!" Kirino shouted back because of the loud noises around him not understanding what Ibuki just said.

"Where... are...you?!" Ibuki instead asked.

"Near the exit!" I shouted back.

"Where?!" Ibuki asked again, but before Kirino could ask anymore questions his cellphone went out of signal.

"Okatsu! Where are you?! Shindou shouted.

"I'm... Ibuki... near..." Okatsu tried to say.

"What?! What about Ibuki?!" Shindou asked again.

"Were near the!..." Okatsu shouted but his cellphone suddenly went out of signal.

"Sigh" as they cannot communicate with their lovers, both look at each other and turned away before blushing.

Meanwhile...

As the four tried to exit the stage the swarming people suddenly made them separated.

"Don't get too far on me Kirino" Ibuki said taking hold of someone's wrist. Ibuki struggled to get out of the exit once they were out they breathe in relief.

"Are you okay Ran?" Ibuki asked as he turn around but was shocked when he saw that it wasn't Kirino.

"Okatsu?!" Ibuki shouted red in embarrassment.

"Uh.. Hey, Thanks for pulling me out of there" Okatsu thanked him anyway.

"Uh.. Welcome.." Ibuki said and they had an awkward atmosphere. They then noticed that Ibuki's still holding Okatsu's wrist and he suddenly let go while both were blushing.

"I guess we should call our lovers they might've gotten pushed to another exit" Okatsu said and Ibuki agreed.

"Uh... Where... you?!" Kirino asked.

"I'm here at the other exit near the arcade shop!" Ibuki shouted as the voices of the people are loud.

"What?!... Can't hear...?!" Kirino shouted back. Since neither can understand each other Ibuki decided he will just go where Kirino is.

"Where... are... you?!" Ibuki asked.

Near.. the...!" Kirino shouted back.

"Where!?" Ibuki asked again but to no avail as his cellphone went out of signal.

"Okatsu! Where... you!?" Shindou shouted.

"I'm with Ibuki near the arcade shop!" Okatsu answered.

"What?! What... Ibuki!?"

"Were near the arcade shop!" Okatsu's cellphone went out of signal.

"Great!" Ibuki complained.

"Takuto" Okatsu said worryingly.

"What are we going to do now?" Okatsu asked Ibuki.

"Well, it's certainly impossible to search for them in this huge place" Ibuki concluded looking at the map.

"What are we going to do now?" Okatsu asked.

"Depends on what you want to do? Do you want to hang out more or do you want to go take a rest" Ibuki shrugged looking at Okatsu.

"Why don't we go inside the arcade shop?" Ikatsu suggested.

"Sure" Ibuki agreed smiling at Okatsu. And they both walked inside.

Back again at Kirino and Shindou...

"So what are we gonna do now?' Shindou asked.

"We should part ways here" Kirino said looking straight ahead.

"But why?!" Shindou asked shock.

"Mune will be jealous if he sees the two of us together" Kirino answered not looking him in the eye.

"Then just explain to him that it was an accident! He'll understand since he's with Okatsu!" Shindou retorted.

"Still..." Kirino insisted.

"Are you avoiding me?!" Shindou asked seriously looking at him.

"Of course not! Fine do what you want!" Kirino answered stomping off followed by Shindou from behind. As they were walking around Kirino saw an ice cream stall up ahead and walked a little faster towards it.

"One strawberry ice cream please" Kirino ordered.

"Here you go" said the man.

"And also one chocolate ice cream, how much is this two?" Kirino look at Shindou in shock.

"You don't have to pay for me!" Kirino said denying the offer.

"Just think of it as a token of our friendship" Shindou said smiling gently at him which made Kirino blush and look away.

"Thank you" Kirino said as he eats his ice cream after Shindou pays for it.

"What do you want to do next?" Shindou asked.

"I think we should rest for now" Kirino answered as he saw a bench near them.

"Ok" Shindou agreed.

And back to Ibuki and Okatsu (again)...

"Thanks Ibuki!" Okatsu said happily hugging the teddy bear that Ibuki won. As they exited the arcade the sun was already setting down.

"Nah it's nothing! As long as it's balls being shoot in the hoop it's as easy as a pie" Ibuki said grinning at her.

"As expected of a person of your caliber" Okatsu giggled.

"So what do you want to do next?" Ibuki asked.

"I think we should take a rest?" Okatsu suggested and they both found a bench to rest in, both were content in the peace and quietness.

"Ibuki" Okatsu called.

"Yeah"

"What did you... when did... what would... sigh never mind" Okatsu tried asking but didn't know the proper way.

"If you have a question shoot no need to hold back" Ibuki encouraged.

"Well, your Kirino's boyfriend right? Uhm.. what would you do if he wanted to break-up" Okatsu said looking up at the sky, Ibuki frowned.

"What kind of question is that?!" Ibuki exclaimed.

"Surely your not blind you could tell that those two still love each other" Okatsu answered.

"What you say maybe true but I don't plan on giving Kirino to anyone" Ibuki stated.

"You do realize your hurting him in the process"Of course it will be painful at first but he'll soon realize that he and Shindou were never meant to be together" Ibuki said in a determined voice. Okatsu look at Ibuki to see that he was serious.

"Wow, you're really in love with Kirino are you?" Okatsu asked smilng at him which made him blush.

"What I am today is because of him he change me into who I am now, thanks to him I've become a better person" Ibuki explained.

"Sigh.. I see I envy you" Okatsu said truthfully and Ibuki look at him confusingly.

"Why's that?" Ibuki asked curiously.

"Unlike other girls who would fight for their loved ones or is clingy to their lovers I know my position all too well. I would've fight for him if it wasn't the fact that I could see right through his eyes that his heart belongs to Kirino" Okatsu admitted looking down on the ground and Ibuki felt guilty.

"Sorry, it's just that Kirino is just to important for me to lose. Shindou may be the first person he fell in love with but I'll make sure that I'll be the one he'll end up with in the end" Ibuki said seriously determined to keep Kirino to himself while Okatsu looked at him sadly.

"Kirino, there's a reason why Kirino broke up with Shindou didn't he?" Okatsu ask and Ibuki's eyes widen.

"And what makes you say that?" Ibuki asked narrowing his eyes.

"Girls instinct I guess" Okatsu answered and Ibuki looked at her amusingly.

"Whatever it is it doesn't matter" Ibuki stated.

"They say that "if you really love someone set it free if it comes back it's yours if it doesn't then it was never meant to be' you should be careful of your actions" Okatsu warned but before Ibuki could say something they're cellphones ringed.

"Hello Takuto" Okatsu answered.

"Hey Okatsu listen I'm kind of stuck because of something you go on ahead first sorry but I won't be able to accompany you" Shindou apologized guiltily,since this is their date but somehow everything went wrong.

"It's ok I understand Takuto" Okatsu said gently in understanding.

"Wait! Is Ibuki with you?" Shindou asked.

"Yeah why?" Okatsu ask as he look at Ibuki.

"Can you hand him your cellphone I want to tell him something"

"Ok" and Okatsu handed her phone to Ibuki, Ibuki look at her in confusion and she just shrugged.

"Hey man can you do me a favor?" Shindou said pleadingly.

"And what's that?" Ibuki asked.

"Can you accompany Okatsu in my stead" Shindou said. Ibuki look at Okatsu he's fine with accompanying her but what about Kirino. Since it's dark and the sun was already gone.

"I'm fine with that but what about Ran?" Ibuki asked as much as he's willing to accompany Okatsu Kirino is still his boyfriend.

"About that..." then Ibuki heard something like the cellphone being passed.

"Hey Mune" Kirino's voice boomed and Ibuki is shocked.

"Ran?!"

"Uh.. yeah it's me, listen can you accompany Okatsu don't worry I'll be fine I'll just be taking a bus on my way home" Kirino said.

"But Ran-!"

"Please Mune it's my fault that were stuck! It's the least that I could do for Shindou since he's really worried about his girlfriend" making sure to emphasize it so that he's jealousy would somehow go down.

"Fine but you better explain yourself to me tomorrow Ran" Ibuki stated a little angrily and he handed the phone back to Okatsu.

"I'm guessing Kirino and Takuto are together?" Okatsu asked looking at Ibuki's grumpy face.

"Yeah" Ibuki answered coldly and started walking followed by Okatsu from behind.

"Sigh.. now I wonder if this is just a coincidence or fate" Okatsu said looking up at the sky.

"Listen Okatsu the past is the past the present is the present the fact that the present is that Shindou's your boyfriend and Ran's mine that's what matters the most" not wanting to give Kirino up. Sighing in defeat Okatsu could only stare at Ibuki's back sadly.

Back at Kirino and Shindou (again)...

After the two were done taking a rest in the bench the sun was long gone already. They were planning to call their lovers but notice that their cellphones were still out of coverage.

"Well this is bad how are we suppose to contact them now" Kirino's worried about Ibuki on what he's doing now.

"Don't worry too much will you" Shindou tried to calm Kirino.

"Why don't we just wait for them in the exit, we might have a chance on seeing them there" and Kirino nodded his head and the two started walking until Kirino look up at his side and stop. Shindou look at his back to see Kirino staring at something he looked at where he's looking at and smiled walking up at him.

"Want to ride it?" Shindou asked looking at Kirino who blushed and turned away at the Ferris wheel.

"No" and started walking but was stopped when Shindou touched his shoulder.

"Come on the lines not that long and besides our cell's might work there come on" before Kirino could answer he was being dragged by Shindou.

"Wow! The views amazing!" Kirino exclaimed as he could see the whole town engulfed in bright colorful light contrast by the darkness above. While Shindou just stared at Kirino's happy face smiling unconsciously but frowned at something.

"Hey, Kirino" Shindou called.

"Yes" Kirino answered not removing his eyes from the view.

"Do you love Ibuki?' Kirino was so shocked he whipped his head around to look straight into Shindou who was looking at him seriously and averted making eye contact with him.

"Well.. yeah I mean... I wouldn't have dated him if I didn't did I?" Kirino answered looking back at the town.

"Are you sure?" Shindou asked as he went closer on Kirino and Kirino backed away leaning more on the window .

"Of course I am" Kirno answered his heart started to skip a beat.

"Hey Kirino" Shindou called leaning closer

"Yes?" Kirino answered unsure.

"Why did you break-up with me?" Shindou asked his chest made physical contact with Kirino's back and before Kirino could move on the other side Shindou's hand were already beside his head touching the window making no exits making Kirino nervous.

"Because.. I got tired of you remember" Kirino answered his voice getting weaker and weaker by the minute.

"Yeah I remember like it was yesterday especially every time I see you" leaning in Kirino's ear making him shiver.

"O-oh! I see... anyway were at the very top now surely there must be a signal" Kirino said distracting himself and Shindou leaned his hand away from the glass but still has physical contact with Kirino. But before they could do any further their ride suddenly swing making Kirino fall on Shindou.

"Hmph!" both boys blushed as they lie on the sit accidentally kissing each other.

"I'm sorry!" as Kirino suddenly leaned away turning around against Shindou. Shindou slowly stood up blushing as well it was a few minutes of awkwardness before they noticed that the Ferris wheel stopped moving. Since they weren't doing anything to distract himself he took out his cellphone.

"Great I'm out of battery" Kirino said pouting at his cellphone and Shindou chuckled at his cuteness and took out his cellphone too.

"Why do you think the Ferris wheel stopped?" Kirino asked looking down.

"Maybe something happened?" Shindou suggested looking at the window too leaning close to Kirino who was blushing madly.

"Happened? Like what?"

"Malfunction I guess" Shindou shrugged.

"It's pretty late now isn't it? I hope Ibuki didn't wait for me" Kirino said worriedly.

"Yeah I should probably call Okatsu to go ahead first" Shindou said luckily his cellphone still working.

"Hello Takuto" Okatsu answered.

"Hey Okatsu listen I'm kind of stuck because of something you go on ahead first sorry but I won't be able to accompany you" Shindou apologized guiltily,since this is their date but somehow everything went wrong.

"It's ok I understand Takuto" Okatsu answered gently.

"Wait! Is Ibuki with you?" Shindou asked. Remembering that she's with Ibuki.

"Yeah why?" Okatsu ask.

"Can you hand him your cellphone I want to tell him something" Shindou asked.

"Ok" and Shindou heard the phone being passed.

"Hey man can you do me a favor?" Shindou said pleadingly once he knew Ibuki has the phone.

"And what's that?" Ibuki asked.

"Can you accompany Okatsu in my stead" Shindou said. Since it's dark and the sun was already gone and he didn't want Okatsu to go home alone.

"I'm fine with that but what about Ran?" Ibuki asked worried about his boyfriend.

"About that..." Shindou said looking at Kirino who was listening gave him the phone.

"Hey Mune" Kirino's voice boomed.

"Ran?!"

"Uh.. yeah it's me, listen can you accompany Okatsu don't worry I'll be fine I'll just be taking a bus on my way home" Kirino said.

"But Ran-!" jealousy could be hinted in his voice.

"Please Mune it's my fault that were stuck! It's the least that I could do for Shindou since he's really worried about his girlfriend" making sure to emphasize it so that he's jealousy would somehow go down.

"Fine but you better explain yourself to me tomorrow Ran" Ibuki stated angrily and the conversation's finish.

"You don't have to ride the bus you can ride along with me" Shindou offered.

"Shindou..." the Ferris wheel suddenly started moving.

"Ibuki accepted that he would take Okatsu home safely the least I could do is take you home safely or else I'm dead if Ibuki finds out something bad happened to you not only that but I'll also feel guilty of letting you go on your own" Shindou explained. Sighing in defeat Kirino agreed.

"Ok fine" Kirino agreed and the door opened.

"Sorry for the malfunction hope you enjoyed your ride" as the caretaker said. And the two of us exited the place and started walking towards Shindou's car. The ride was silent since it was pretty late and there weren't too much vehicle at this time of the night.

"You could drop me of here" Kirino said but Shindou didn't stop and continued towards Kirino's home.

"There were here now" Shindou said stopping in front of Kirino's home while the latter was blushing.

"You didn't have to you know" looking down blushing in embarrassment.

"But I want to" which made Kirino's blush intensify.

"I see, later then" Kirino said exiting the car, but as he tried to get up Shindou grabbed his wrists turning him around kissing him.

"Later then" and he went away while Kirino just stood there dumbstruck.

'What the heck! Why did Shindou kissed me!?" touching his lips his face is as red as a tomato.

'Why did I do that?! Before I know it my body moved on it's own?!' Shindou asked himself not believing what he just did touching his lips his face the same color of Kirino's face.

"But his lips were soft and the kiss was simple but sweet' the two thought smiling unconsciously. They're date might not have been according to plan at least they were happy in the end.
