You took a sip of coffee from your cup as you looked at the bright blue sky. You were listening at the television at the same time.

"A woman also identified as Anna Hasegawa was found dead under a burning building. The police said that she committed suicide after burning the building down...."

"That's sick! That bitch killed herself" Sanzu laughed as if it was the funniest thing he heard in the world.

A shuffle was heard across you when Koko sat down then he propped his elbows on the armrest of his seat. He cross his legs and his eyes were on you.

"About the record?" Koko asked, you moved your eyes to look at him as you replied.

"It was a lie." You lowly whispered enough for him to hear.

"So about her?" Koko asked.

You slowly stood from your seat then the corner of your lips curved up into a smile.

Koko already knew what was behind that smile of yours. He didn't ask any further and he just looked at you.

Ran fixed his necktie as he looked at the mirror.

"(Y/n) want to go out with me?" He said as he looked at the mirror then for a second he shook his head.

"No. It should be like-" He paused as he practiced his looks on the mirror. "(Y/n) let's go out?" He practiced but the soon after shook his head.

"Ah! I know." He cleared his throat then he looked at the mirror. "(Y/n) can I take you out for today?" After his practice a smile of content went across his face.

After a few minutes a knock on the door was heard making him panic as he glanced at the mirror one last time before running towards the door to open it.

When he opened it he saw (Y/n) standing in front of his door.

"You called me?" You asked as you looked at him directly in the eyes.

He gulped nervously as he opened his mouth to speak. "Wanna go out with me?" He asked.

You were stun for a moment then a chuckle left your lips.

"Where? At the bar?" You asked with a playful smile on your lips.

"N-No! I'll take you on this restaurant-"

"What if people recognizes me? What are you gonna do about it?" You asked then he turned to the side.

"That's true." He mumbled then he turned to you.

"Why do you want to take me out?" You asked tilting your head lightly to the side as you blinked your eyes.

Heat rose up his cheeks as he cast his eyes down.

"I just thought you would want it since you've been stuck inside the mansion." He lowly replied.

"Then let's go." You pulled his hands that was resting in his side. "I'm sure you have a plan on how you would hide me." You cheekily smiled.

You walked through the corridors hand in hand.

You sat down the seat across Ran as you waited for your order to be served.

You were inside a room that Ran reserved for just the both of you and no one else. It was a luxurious restaurant and inside the room was a chandelier at the center of the room.

You could see the buildings of Tokyo from the inside since you were on a 5 storey building.

You kept on pushing the strand of your hair back behind your ear since it was distracting your vision.

A sigh left your lips as you leaned on your seat.

"I should cut my hair later." You lowly mumbled as you tuck your hair back to your ear.

Ran stood from his seat then he took a hair tie from his pocket as he walked behind you then he bit the hair tie as he gathered your hair.

"Ran?" You called as you moved your eyes to the side.

"Don't cut your hair." He spoke after tying your hair up into a bun.

He walked back to his seat. You touched the bun on your head then a smile was formed on your lips.

"I used to tie your hair into a bun." You giggled then you put your hand down as you looked at Ran.

"Why'd you cut your hair?" You asked as you looked at him. You propped your elbows on the table as you clasped your hands in front of you. You rested you chin on top of your clasped hands.

"I just thought of cutting it since I was getting lazy on braiding it everyday." He reasoned.

You gazed into each others eyes for a moment.

"Ran." You lowly called making him hum in respond.

"Did you... Really cheated on me when we were dating?" You asked out of the blue. His eyes widened for a bit then he cast his eyes down. He had a bitter look on his face as he avoided your eyes.

"I'm sorry for asking." You said as you leaned on your seat then you turned to look at the window.

Silence fell upon the both of you until your order arrived. The waiter served your orders as he placed it on your table.

The both of you ate silently until the both of you was done.

Ran drove silently and you sat beside him with your eyes looking out the window.

He parked the car in his mansion's garage where he store his other 7 cars.

You were about to go out when he held your hand making you stop from what you were supposed to do.

"I didn't cheat on you. When we were dating it never crossed in my mind to cheat on you because... I love you. I don't need to explain it do I?" He asked as you turned to him meeting his violet eyes.

"I broke up with you because I wanted to protect you. I was a delinquent and you w-" Before he could finish you crashed your lips with his

His widened as he lifted his hands up to the side of your shoulders then he slowly closed his eyes as he relaxed in your touch.

He tilted his head to the side then he moved his other hand on the back of your head deepening the kiss.
