HANAKO'S POV:

It's been a few days since the whole Mirai incident and everything is back to normal. Well as normal as it'll get. Kou hasn't said a word to Yashiro about her death and Y/N has gone missing once more. Unlike when I was alive,her missing is just a common thing now. "Now that I think about it,I've never visited her boundary. I wonder what it looks l-"the door then opened with Y/N who was holding a box of art supplies. "Amane! Help me make something!" I gave her a confused look"hm? What for?" She sets the box on the floor"I want to make you a small sakura tree so that you'll never forget me." She smiles as I feel my cheeks burn"w-wait what?" She nods and sits on the floor behind the box. "Yep! I asked Shijima,ya know the art ghost girl,to help me find the materials." She rummages around in the box and soon pulls out air dry clay"and she suggested this!" She exclaims presenting the container of the clay.

"Why would you wanna make me something?" I asked looking at her as she sets down the container on the floor beside her before crossing her arms. "Hmph! Is there something wrong that?" I shake my head as my hands wave in front of me"of course not! No no no! It's just...well nobody's ever wanted to do something like this for me." She looks to me"oh come on,that's a lie and you know it. Now get down here little man."

"Huh?! 'Little man'?!" She nods"well yea,you're like 4'11." I get off the window will"I-...ok so what if I am?" I huff"cant even deny it. Cuz I'm always right! Now hurry up and get down here." I nod and join her on the ground as she pulls out a blue tray covered in dry clay. "If you mess up my bathroom you're cleaning it while a wearing maid uniform." I say with a glare"pervert!" She exclaims as I smile towards her. "Now,let's get started!" She opens the container and takes out a thing of clay"ew,I hate how it leaves your hands dry." She complains while scrunching her nose. "Well it's clay." I remark"be quiet. Anyway,help me make it. You can start on the base of the tree. It's probably one of the easier things." I nod and grab a thing of clay"I see what you mean." I groan slightly.

Y/N and I sat in silence until she finally spoke up. "Your birthday is soon,right?" I looked up to her"huh?" She looks to me"it's November 25th,right?" I nod"it is." I say looking back down to the 'sculpture' of the tree trunk. "I wanted to get you something. So what do you want?" I look back to her"oh no,please don't get me anything!" She shakes her head"but I have to Amane! Birthdays are important." Her E/C eyes stared into mine as I looked back down uncomfortably. "I don't want to ever celebrate my birthday again..."I trail off recalling my forth birthday,the day I couldn't find Tsukasa. "Why not?...well I guess that's none of my business. I just thought it would be nice since I finally know your birthday."

"Wait you didn't know my birthday before?" I asked slightly taken back. She nervously laughs"n-no. You never brought it up before s-so I took a peak into your book." She says referring to the book that Tsuchigomori had in his boundary. "So when is your birthday?" I asked"mine? Uh...I can't remember. I guess with how much time has passed I forgot a lot of stuff."

The next few words came out of my mouth before I could realize what I said. "You won't forget me,will you?" My eyes widened as I realized what I said"of course not silly. How could I ever forget you Amane? You must be reaaal dumb to think that." She teases"but how can you be certain?" I asked looking at her now"you've already forgotten so much like you're birthday,there's no telling what else you'll lose!" Why am I getting so mad at her? "Well I mean,you're always around me and in my head daily. So I won't ever forget you." Her smile never faded while she spoke"losing you is what I'm afraid of." I admit"really? That's a dumb thing to say." She sets the top of the tree down on the tray before grabbing my hands,making the tree trunk fall from my hands.

"I won't ever forget you Amane Yugi! Never! Never! Never!" She exclaims"I love you Amane! How could I forget someone I love?" My eyes widened at what she said. Her words replayed in my mind: 'I love you Amane! How could I forget someone I love?'

"Wait...h-huh?" My cheeks were burning as she pulled away"actually...this gift is your present. I was hoping I wouldn't have to tell you." I didn't answer,her words and smile continued to replay in my head. Was she being serious? "Hey Amane?" Her voice seemed genuine..."Amannnee?" But that doesn't mean an-

I then felt pain on my forehead"ow!" I exclaim rubbing my arm on my forehead. "What was that for?" I asked the girl"you were ignoring me and lost in thought. So I had to bring you back to reality." I nod unsure of what to do. "Y/N d-do you mind if I take a breather?" She shakes her head"no of course not. Go ahead." I thank her and teleport to the rooftop. Does she really love me? Or was she saying that in a friend way? If she was saying that in a friend way,why'd she grab my hands?!

I found myself staring up at the sky that's when Yashiro's voice was heard. "Hanako-kun! I finally found you!" She smiles"oh hey." I greet her"I was looking for you everywhere!" She exclaims sitting beside me"what are you doing?" I simply tell her nothing. "But what can I do for you?" I asked the daikon girl"look! I have something to show you!" She exclaims pulling out a envelope. "It's a love letter!" I took it from her and opened it to see that it was addressed to Aoi while she gushed on. Maybe I should do something like this for-

"Hanako-kun?" I hummed"oh sorry..."she takes the letter back from me"what's wrong? You seem kinda down." I looked down"ghosts have their worries to." Can I tell her? "Worries? Oh I know! Is it about the clock keepers?" She asks"we haven't destroyed their yorishiro." I shake my head"no,we can't do that yet. There's a lot of reasons but their abilities could come in handy later on."

"Oh...ok..."

Y/N is making a birthday present even though I don't want one? She's so thoughtful at times...and she's really sweet and nice...and pretty. Do I have a crush on her again? Is liking her a-

Yashiro grabbed my uniform and brought me out of my thoughts"huh? Yashiro?" That's when soft lips were on my cheek making my eyes widen. She pulled away and nervously said"it's a m-magic spell to m-make you f-feel better...or something..."

My cheeks were burning hot as I pulled down my hat to cover my face. I glanced back at Yashiro to see Y/N beside me. Ok my mind is actually playing tricks on me now! "Don't do that." I speak up to the girl who seemed like she was fixing to cry. "You can't go around doing things like that." I say hugging her"you have to be more careful since you're a girl. Ok?" I placed my thumb on her bottom lip"and that note was addressed to Aoi." I whispered as the door below us opened to reveal Kou.

"WAIT JUST A MINUTE!" I let go of Yashiro and peaked over the edge"oh hey kid." I greeted him"THERE YOU ARE!" He yells running over and climbing up the latter"get your hands off senpai you dirty perverted-"I jumped off the small roof top that held the doors to go back into the school building. "Yea yea I know." I landed on my feet and waved back to Yashiro"anyway Yashiro,thanks for everything." I teased"'everything'...?" Kou repeated"WHAT DID YOU DO YOU D*MN PER-AH! SENPAI IS MELTING!"

"Bye bye now!"

I headed inside and leaned against the door,my head hitting it. Was I supposed to be feeling butterflies during that kiss? Isnt that what they say? Then...why wasn't I feeling that? Why was I feeling nothing?
