The other four Quints left the room and left me alone with Ichika.

Y/N: No more fooling me with disguises... Impressed yet?

Ichika: Big Sis is impressed. I didn't think you would be able to get all of us.

Y/N: I'm better than you think.

Ichika: I guess you are, aren't you? What was it that you wanted to talk about?

Y/N: Huh?

Ichika: You told the others to leave so we could talk privately.

Y/N: Right. I didn't really have anything on my mind specifically. I just wanted to see you...

Ichika smiled.

Ichika: I can't pretend that I'm surprised you just said that. You've always been pretty spontaneous honestly.

Y/N: Spontaneous? I'd beg to differ.

Ichika: Oh just admit it already. For such a genius, you really have a tendency to act on impulse.

**It hasn't always been like that. It's because of you all.**

Y/N: Maybe I do. Maybe I don't.

Ichika: There is no "maybe". You definitely do! Remember 5 years ago? The day you proposed to me?

I chuckled.

Y/N: How could I ever forget that day?

{5 Years Earlier Before Graduation}

With the day of graduation coming up soon, I knew there was something I still had to do. I sat at my desk and flipped through the scrapbook that Takeda and Maeda helped me make. I gave each of the Quints a copy unique to them, but I also made one for myself. As I flipped through it, I found myself stopping and taking long pauses whenever Ichika showed up in a photo.

**I know that when Ichika falls in love, she'll do whatever it takes to prove it... If I were to leave after graduation without pushing our relationship further, then she'd probably feel like she failed me.**

I closed the scrapbook.

**But I don't want her to think she's not good enough. I want her to know how much I appreciate what she does... I want to-**

I got up and ran out of my house. I didn't have anywhere in particular to go, but I wanted to see Ichika now. I knew she was at work, though, so I didn't bother texting or calling her.

**I've shown up unexpectedly at her workplace so many times before that I don't think Oda even cares anymore. I think I'll swing by there and say what's up.**

I made my way over to the studio where she worked at. At this point, I've shown up so many times that I was able to get buzzed in without any issue. I waved to the camera as I headed in. As I made my way inside. I saw that there wasn't any actual filming going on. Just some mock scenes and acting exercises. Ichika was in the middle of a scene with a few coworkers while Oda watched them. I sat down on a couch in the room and watched.

Ichika: And so, I'm sorry, but I can't-

Ichika noticed I had arrived and was watching. A smile came across her face.

Oda: Cut! Nakano-san, you're supposed to be sad in this scene. What's the big smile for..?

Ichika: Oh, sorry- Could we break here?

Oda instinctively looked behind him and saw I was there. He sighed.

Oda: All right, all of you take ten... Y/N, could you at least say when you're planning to show up..?
