"Natsuki? Are you ready?" I shout across the living area.

"Yesss!" Natsuki came running to me with his belongings on hand.

"Alright." I shoulder my bag. "See you guys later! Wish us luck!"

"May you both do well." Masato gave us an encouraging smile.

"Take care you two!" Otoya gives us a quick squeeze.

We then went on our way to the Raging Entertainment Agency building. For some reason our meetings always resided in their building though I didn't really mind.

"We're partnered up with...Nagi right?" I ask to confirm once more.

"Yes!" I could tell Natsuki was extra excited today.

"What's got you so excited Natsuki?" I giggle.

"You see, I made a list here of what I want to accomplish in this duet project." He pulls out a small notepad. "Everyone has been working so hard, so I want to do my best!"

"That's great Natsuki." I chuckle more at his enthusiasm. "Writing down your goals so that you won't forget them...Oh we're here."

We both get off the car and headed to the meeting room where Nagi was already in.

"Hey there Nagi." I smile at him. "Did you wait long?"

"Not really..." He greets me with a smile but frowns when he sees Natsuki. "Let's get on with the meeting."

And so we did. We all sat on the long rectangular table in the middle of the room.

"So...what do you all want the theme for our song to be?" I ready my pen and paper to take down notes.

"I want you to write a cuteee song!" Nagi starts off. "Once people hear it, they must think of it as cute immediately!"

"Cute huh..." I take some more notes down.

"I agree! Cute songs makes people happy!" Natsuki agrees.

"Boring." Nagi pouts. "Don't you have any ideas of your own?

"I'm just happy singing Melody's song with you."

"You're such a goody-two shoes. I hate that." Nagi sighs.

"Nagi..." I give him a warning look. "But you have to think for your own Natsuki. If the final product doesn't please you it's going to be your fault too."

"Oh...Okay." Natsuki's enthusiasm simmers down a bit.

"Well! Aside from the cute song, I want to include something surprising too!" Nagi suggests.

"Surprising huh..." Again I write down my thoughts as well as hid idea. "What do you mean by surprising?"

"Something like...Playing instruments!" Nagi grins. "A live performance will surely excite the fans! I play the viola! Don't you play the violin?" He asks Natsuki.

"Ah not anymore...That was long ago. I play the viola now." Natsuki sheepishly replies.

"Ehhh same instruments are boringgg." Nagi pouts. "Melody, you'll play the piano right?"

"Y-yeah..." I worriedly look at Natsuki. He seems troubled since the mention of the violin.

"Weren't you a prodigy before? Why did you even quit?" Nagi began to pry at Natsuki.

"Why...." Natsuki seems to be deep in thought. "I...don't really remember."

"Ehh? Are you lying cause you don't wanna play? If you are, you could have just said so." Nagi angrily accuses him.
