- still in Japan. I will get to the Korean side..I promise-

It's free period and everything is ready for Arata to ask out Nao. " Why am I blindfolded?" Nao asked. " You'll see when we get there," Sota says. " Should I be concerned?" Nao asked. " No. You're going to be happy after this," Wataru says. Both of them carefully walks Nao into a classroom. " Smells amazing in here!" Nao says. The two 03 liners giggles. " You can take off the blindfold now," a voice says that made Nao's ears turn pink. Wataru takes off the blindfold and walks to where Ryusei is. " Arata...?" Nao says. " Just look at the boards okay?" Arata says. Nao nods. He reads each board Arata shows and couldn't help grin. After that, Arata walks up to the younger and without a word, softly kisses Nao who automatically wraps his arms around Arata's neck. Both smile into that kiss and in their own world. No words had to be said. That was a " yes" right there. " FREAKING FINALLY!" Hoshiki says happily. Ryusei looks over at Koki and Michieda who are happy but can tell they're starting to doubt themselves. " Hey, it will happen," Ryusei says. " I feel like I trapped Ren into something he didn't need to be in," Michieda says. " Come on now. All of us, including you know how much Motoi and Ren like you. They're playing it safe you know," Wataru says. " I understand that but...I'm worried we'll be distant especially since when I apply and hopefully gets accepted to be a trainee, I will with that Kansai Johnny's since I'm from that region," Michieda says. " I will make sure you and Ren won't become distant. I'm doing the same for me and Wataru since I will be in the same group of Johnny's with you ,  Kento, Kyohei," Ryusei says. "... Promise?" Michieda asked. " I promise. He talks about you in way someone who's absolutely whipped would,"Ryusei says. Michieda nods.

A few weeks later, Minato finally asked Sota out and now the 03 trio officially have boyfriends. Ren has been with Micchi more often. With all his friends getting into relationships, he and Koki has been a bit lonely. " Remember what I said to you a few years ago?" Ren asked."..When the time is right, you'll make me yours?" Michieda says as he lays on the older's chest. Ren nods. " You're mine no matter what. Because I am older than you, I want to savor everything. I want to see us grow more and more as our relationship progresses. It's what Motoi wants to do as well with Koki," Ren says. Michieda nods. " I just know that there's people out there who would die having you as theirs. I mean ... many girls in your grade does stuff to my face on purpose," Michieda says. " And I'm not interested in them," Ren says. " Hmm. I'm sri trying to mentally process Mirabel being a mom in months time," Michieda says. "Me too," Ren says.
