RIGHT after class, Mysta made his way towards his favorite skating park. He brought a pair of wheels in his locker so he could use it in the afternoon. Swaying his backpack on the ground, his phone suddenly rang.

"What is it, dumbass?" he answered Ike on the phone.

'baby, I'm going to have a practice with Shu at the music room right now' Ike said on the other line. The psycho guy acts like an obedient boyfriend towards Mysta.

"So what?" Mysta answered while skating.

'You're not coming to watch me?' Ike asked on the other line. The puppy sounded lonely but Mysta never gave a damn. He has his own hobby too.

'It's not like I can always be with him and ignore the things that I love to do all the time!' Mysta shouted in his mind.

"I'm skating right now, kid. I'm far away from school and what am I going to do while you practice? I hate waiting because I'll get bored and you can have fun with the President. Stop being a pussy" Mysta said. He heard Ike sighed on the other line.

'You always do what you want' Ike said with a lonely voice.

"It's none of your business" Mysta reminded Ike as if it was obvious.

'It is.' Ike replied seriously. For a moment, Mysta got distructed with the sudden drop of Ike's voice.

'You really won't come to see me?"'

"No" Mysta answered confidently. The call suddenly ended which made Mysta burst out of anger.

'How dare you hang up the phone?!' Mysta's brain shouted.

"Is he mad now? He can't be mad over something so childish, right?" Mysta asked himself while skating. He sat on the bench and grabbed a smoke.

There were two kids in front of him. The little girl was crying as she sat beside Mysta. The little boy ran towards the ice cream store.

"Hey, little girl. If you're going to make a noise, do it somewhere else" Mysta said with an annoyed face. He hated noises and he was not fond of kids as far as he remembered.

"Here! I brought you ice cream! Please don't get mad at me anymore" the little boy came back with an ice cream and gave it to the girl.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Mysta asked the girl with a teasing smile.

"No he's not, but he is going to be my groom someday." the little girl answered when she stopped crying. Mysta saw the little boy blushed while he was wiping the little girl's tears with his small hands.

"Woah" Mysta gulped and decided to throw his cigarette.

"Why were you crying then?" Mysta asked with a smile.

"Because he was playing with another girl" the girl answered. Mysta chuckled at how cute they are.

"Really? That's why you cried?" Mysta asked while smiling. He was having fun talking with the kids.

"I was just helping her because her volleyball rolled towards the dog. I was not playing with her" the boy explained firmly. Mysta watched the two making up. Mysta thought that the boy was like Ike.

"I always give her ice cream everytime she gets mad at me. Sweets make her happy" the boy said with a smile.

"Big brother, do you have a bride too?" the little girl asked Mysta. Mysta suddenly remembered Ike's puppy face.

"Not yet" Mysta answered with an awkward chuckle. How could he have a bride when Ike in a groom suit suddenly flashed through his mind?

"You should give her an ice cream too. I'm sure she won't be mad at you anymore whenever you have a quarrel" the boy said.

"You think so?" Mysta asked like a kid. The boy nodded and immediately pulled the girl's hand. The two left Mysta with an awkward face.

"Should I give him an ice cream?" Mysta asked himself as he remembered Ike's mad voice on the phone earlier.

...

"What the hell am I doing?" Mysta asked himself while bringing a regular size ice cream cup.

Luca watched Shu playing the guitar while Ike with the drums. Shu was playing the electric guitar like a pro.

'They look like they're really having fun' Luca thought as he watched Shu and Ike looking at each other all the time with smiles on their faces.

'Is it really fine that I am here? I don't think Shubert wants me to be here' Luca thought with a gloomy face. Luca went out of the music room to buy some snacks and take a break.

The two stopped practicing and rested for a while.

"Shu, I thought you don't want to play music anymore? Is it because of your father?" Ike asked with worried eyes. Shu nodded. He told Ike about what happened between him and his father.

"So you wanted to join that audition because your father wanted you to join the band?" Ike asked. Shu nodded with a guilty face.

"My father wanted to see me play music in front of the crowd together with a band. It was his greatest dream but he never had the chance to make it happen. I wanted to do it for him and for myself. If I won't do it. I'll forever regret about not doing the thing my father wanted to do even once in his lifetime. That way I will feel at ease." Shu explained and bowed his head. Ike knew that the president was still hurting because of his father's death. As Shu's friend, all Ike could do was to comfort his friend. Ike patted Shu's head.

"There there, you will make it on the band. Don't worry, I'm' here to win with you. Don't be sad, Shuey" Ike said happily.

As the prince was trying to comfort the president, Mysta was standing right at the door. He was gripping the cup tightly as if he wanted to crush the poor thing.

"I thought you were not in the mood when you called me. Looks like I was wrong. Have a great day, asshole" Mysta said as he glared at Ike. The rebel guy walked away as fast as he could so Ike immediately followed him. Shu was left with a chuckle. It was too obvious how Mysta had hardly fallen inlove with the prince.

"Those two, Tsk! Tsk!" Shu said with a chuckle.

"Mysta! Wait! Hey!" Ike shouted while running. Mysta went to his locker to get his wheels again. He immediately grabbed his bag before Ike could catch up to him.

Bang!

Mysta's eyes widened when Ike caged him in between his arms against his locker door.

"Look at me, Mysta Rias. Listen" Ike ordered and looked down on Mysta . Mysta tried his best not to meet Ike's gaze and bowed his head. Whenever Ike calls him his full name, he knows that something shit's gonna happen.

"I said look at me." Ike ordered more possesively. Mysta gasped as Ike leaned closer towards his stiffened body. Mysta felt something cold in his stomach. Ike also felt the coldness penetrated towards his shirt.

"You're crushing the ice cream" Mysta said akwardly when he realized he was holding the ice cream in front of him.

"I don't need it. I know something's sweeter than it. It's right in front of me." Ike said while staring at Mysta intensely.

"Back off" Mysta said while trying to calm himself down.

"Kiss me first and I'll let you go" Ike ordered which made Mysta froze.

"What?!"
