Loud music beaming to your ears as the party started. You turn around to meet the eyes of the man you're fond before. Your first love, Takashi Mitsuya. Expecting him to see at the party came to your mind because you know he's a part of the circle you were in, but you did not expect him approaching you after how your relationship ended without proper closure.
"One please" Takashi ordered to the barista, sitting beside you. He wore a black jeans with plain white polo shirt, first two buttons were exposing revealing his sexy chest with plain silver necklace. His scent lingers on your nose, making him more attractive than he is right now.
He took a sip from his drink and looked at you placing the glass on the counter, "How are you, Miss model, hmm?" he asked with a wide smile on his face, not minding the people dancing as he look at your eyes just like how he used to before. You returned his smile and answered his question.
"I'm doing great actually, how about you, mister designer? I heard you work at xxx company now? You achieved your dreams now, just like you wanted before." You answered, looking at your few drinks left.
He sighed as he regain his attention to his glass, tracing the lid of his half full drink. "Yeah, I got accepted immediately after I applied to that company. Quite fun, but tiring." He chuckled, remembering how his work actually paid off.
You hummed in response as silence developed, creating an awkward atmosphere. Loud background music as your white noise, Takashi then broke the silence,
"I used to think that we'll achieve our goals in life together. You as my model, and me as your designer."
You froze from your seat, remembering your little promises you made with him when you both were still young and happy. But all of those are just now a part of the past. You shook your head to remove the thought it gave you.
"You know, after our break up, I tried to-"
"Let's forget about the past, Mr. Mitsuya." You cutted him off drinking the last few drops of your cocktail, whilst he look at you with nothing but pain in his eyes, still not letting him at least explain his side after all the years.
"But Y/N, I-"
"Babe~, Emma invited us for a karaoke night. Are you gonna come?" Baji appeared as he place his hand around your shoulders.
Baji saw who you were talking with, a smirk crept up to his face, thinking of a trick to answer his question in mind. Touching you from shoulders to your waist, making you stand up from his sudden clingyness.
Eyes widening to what was he was doing, "B-baji?" You asked him, eyebrows knotting, curious as to why he's acting weird infront of his own friend.
"Yo, Mitsuya." He said with a playful smirk, not removing his hands from you.
"Baji." Takashi smiled sarcastically, an irk mark appeared at his forehead as he looked at where Baji's hand is.
"You gonna come with us, bro? You know, gathering of the Toman." Baji said, still a mischievous smirk plastered on his face.
"Yeah, sure. Why not? Let's go then." Takashi stood up ready to walk out from the scene.
Baji only chuckled because the answer he needed was given through actions. You, on the other hand, from seeing Takashi's figure to disappear, to your clingy co-worker who's now smiling from ear to ear. Slapping his hand on your waist and releasing a groan to what he did.
"You're such a trash, Baji."
Chuckling to your statement, "I know right? Let's go, sweet cheeks" he said leaning closer to you face, pinching your nose. Slapping his hand, you answered,
"Fine."

All of the Toman members, including you, Hina, Emma, and Yuzuha are inside the karaoke bar. The boy are singing random songs, drinking, whilst you girls, on the other table, gossip and talking together never ended, until Yuzuha mentioned something related to the past.
"You know, Takashi really loved you back then, Y/N. I remember him making dresses according to your sizes as if you're there with him." She started, making the two girls look at you with worry because of the sudden sensitive topic.
"Please let's not talk about that." You said with a sigh escaping from your lips. Past will remain in the past, you don't want it to bother what lies ahead of you.
Yuzuha sighing, "Y/N, nothing happened between me and Takashi. I only see him as a little brother, just like Hakkai. I don't love him romantically." she explained. Things happened years ago but Yuzuha just want to release her guilt bottled up for years, being the reason of their break up.
"I know what happened, Yuzuha. And it's not your fault. Everything was on me for concluding such things and being a selfish person I were. But I'm happy now. That break up is meant for us to achieve what we have now." You said, comforting her, indirectly accepting her apology to what happened before.
Everyone continued their chit-chats, to favorite foods, funny moments, to love life. You four filled the gap between what happened 10 years ago to now.
The conversation was about Emma being together with Draken, until it landed on you. They asked you if you're currently dating someone, answering them with a big, straight no. Hina and Yuzuha tilted their head as if you're lying to them.
"But, aren't you dating Baji-san? You two seem so close together earlier, you know, like a couple!" Hina, as curious as she is, exclaimed. Eyes glistening from the thought that her favorite couple model would date.
You arched an eyebrow with how stupid that statement is. "What?! Of course not! He's just a co-worker and a good friend of mine. Nothings serious about us, plus he likes someone else. He's just playing with me. Such a flirt." You answered with a playful smile, remembering your little games with Baji to make the media go crazy.
Emma leaned at the table, placing her chin to her palm "Y/N, what if you and Mitsuya date each other again, hmm? You both are now adult and has achieved your dream, dream. Nothings wrong with that, no?" She teasingly smiled and poking your shoulders which you removed immediately and looked at your best friend with irritation.
Sighing at the topic made, "I dont think that will ever happen. We'll only hurt each other, just like before. Maybe heaven didn't allow us to be together for us to grow in our own little world." You replied, looking at them with a sad eye smile.
10 years, you thought that you have finally moved on, but after seeing him after all this time, it all just came back to you like a teenager feeling the scent of spring, but winter came, giving you the cold shoulders piercing through your heart.
"But what if it'll work out fine?" Emma said with a serious face. She knows. She knows her friend more than anyone. She knows that you are the happiest when you're with Takashi.
