Amane waited outside of the classroom for Y/n since she was changing. He was holding her bag fumbling with the strap.

      'What was Tsukasa's deal anyway?'

      Y/n felt uneasy thinking about Tsukasa, she didn't know what he wanted to do with her, but it was obvious that he was just playing with her by getting rid of her.

      As Y/n finished changing her uniform, she opened the door. "Um Amane, I need someone to come along with to the Astronomy clubroom."

      "Sure!" He said.

      The two of them went to the clubroom to gather some things like references and books. Y/n stopped to look at the starry sky by the window.

      Stars are dotted across the sky like splatters of white paint in a dark blue canvas. It was a breathtaking sight.

      No doubt that she loves the stars.

      "The stars looked beautiful tonight, you know?" Amane asked who was next to her. Y/n smiled softly as she looked back to the sky.

      "Yeah..." she said.

      "You know what else is beautiful?"

      "What?"

      "You, of course." Amane grinned with a small blush on his face. Y/n felt soft for once, she felt emotions gushing in and out of her.

      She wanted to cry. Y/n turned around to wipe her tears that are trying to escape. Amane wrapped his arms behind her as he rests his chin on her shoulder. "Amane you're so cheesy."

      "Why?" He asked. "Can't I be affectionate towards my girlfriend?"

      Amane pulled away from her as he grabbed her hand, lacing their fingers together.

      And so the two of them walked hand in hand. Though Hanako is usually cold to the touch, but in this scenario he was warm.

      But you know what they say, it's better to have the cold truth than a warm lie.

      "Whoah, that's a lot of people wanting to observe at the night sky." Y/n remarked. Students are looking through their telescopes, some are just pointing stars on the sky, and some of them are eating cookies.

      'How can this night be so beautiful.'

      Y/n looked around for Kou and Yashiro, but they are nowhere to be found. They must be following Mitsuba by now.

      While Amane was helping some of their classmates with their telescopes, Y/n went over to Aoi and two of Kou's friends, Satou and Yokoo.

      "Would you like some tea and cookies?" Aoi asked her.

      "With us!" Satou and Yokoo said in unison.

      "By the way have you guys seen Kou-kun and Nene-chan?" Y/n asked as she took a bite of a cookie.

      "Now that you mention it, they're not here." Yokoo says getting off his chair.

      "Maybe they're lost?" Satou questioned.

      Y/n knew those two wouldn't kill off Mitsuba that easily, they will have to find a way to go back to the real world.

      Life isn't about rainbows and unicorns, you have to use your blood sweat and tears to create those rainbows and unicorns.

      The world has its own perfections and imperfections. This is just a Utopian world, where euphoria exists by the paintbrush of Shijima Mei.

      Y/n spotted a telescope on top of a roof. She went towards there and climbed up, then she realized where she was. A blush spreads across her face, remembering what had happened at the incident between her and Hanako.

      Y/n looked at the eyepiece of the telescope. "Wow~! I can actually see the stars up close, this is——"

      "Scorpius!" Amane and Y/n said in unison. The two of them broke into giggles. "Jinx!"

      Amane was laying down on the rooftop admiring the starry scenery above him. "See that red star in the middle? That's the brightest star in the Scorpius constellation."

      "Antares!" The two of them said it again. "Jinx!"

      "Wow we sure know a lot." Y/n giggled.

      "Actually it's a twin star, but it's light is so bright that you can't see it's companion next to it through it's telescope." Amane says pointing at the stars.

      "I also happened to know another twin star." Y/n says as she sat next to him. She pointed at the sky. "The star next to Orion, that one's part of the Gemini constellation."

      "They also have a different sparkle." Y/n added. "Castor is blue while Pollux is orange, the two of them don't have the same brightness, but they're still part of the constellation."

      "Whoops there goes my inner geek!" Y/n giggled while covering her mouth.

      "The light of Antares is brighter than the sun, it's really far away but it's really a bright star." Amane added. "Red giants are stars that are soon going to die, so we might not see the real Antares."

      "Even if it's visible it could already be dead." he implied as he sat up to look at Y/n. "Kinda like a ghost."

      "Ghost...?" Y/n questioned.

      "Do you want to look through the telescope?" Y/n asked him.

      "I'm good."

      "But it's pretty." Y/n realizes what she just said. 'I swear to god if Hanako I mean Amane says something cheesy I'm going to lose it.'

      "Why would I look at it if you're prettier than it?" Amane asked with a cheeky smile on his face.

      Y/n looked away while covering her face. "Oh my god..."

      "Anyways even if I wanted to look at the stars, it made me wanna go there. And I've made up my mind that I'm not going anywhere."

      "After all, going to space is impossible." Amane stated. Y/n stared at him with concern.

      "Are you sure, you're not Hanako-kun?" Y/n asked him.

      "Of course not! I'm Amane-kun."

      Y/n sighed sadly. "Is that so?"

      How can a world be so beautiful to the point that it wasn't really real?

      Y/n leaned her back against Amane's back so it looked like they were sitting back to back from each other. "In moments like this tears fill in your eyes, hold my hand tight."

      Y/n turned around as she gently grabbed Amane's face to make him look up to her. "So Hanako-kun..."

      "Should we runaway?"

We are bound to diverge
Rift between space and time
Distant from each other
Set apart.
