Myles and (N) sit in the courtyard. "You did good Myles the play was amazing." "Thank you!" (N) eyes soften then widen and he looks away. Myles turns to see (N)'s dad. "I'm glad you came, sir." "I was invited after all." (N) looks at Myles in shock. "I'm sorry. I thought he should at least see the play." "The play had a wonderful story." Myles smiles at the man. "Thank you!"

"It made me think about the past. The good times. Well. I should get going." "Okay." (N) glances at his dad and looks at the ground. "Don't drink too much alright." The man shifts slightly and then walks away. "Umm (N)?" The teen looks at Myles and smiles. "You wanna go out tomorrow? Just us. There's something I want to ask you." "Why not ask me now?" "Well uh-" "Ah ha! There you two are!"

The males turn to see Yuki with her hands on her hips. "We can't start the party without the director and the star. C'mon everyone's waiting!" The two quickly stand up and follow after Yuki. The drama club celebrated followed by having a party in (F/n)'s room.

(N) and Myles spend their time outside walking around, playing at the arcade, and going to little shops. Myles hums as he hugs the stuffed bear in his hands that (N) won for him. He and (N) walk into the drama club room. "Are we allowed to be here?" "Probably not but we're students. It shouldn't matter." Myles walks around the room and lightly touches a chair. He places the bear down. "You know I used to hate this town and school. But lately, I've come to like it here."

Myles walks back to (N) with a smile. "Really? I'm glad to hear that." (N) inhales sharply and scratches his head. A blush slowly rises on his face as he looks at Myles. "Remember how I wanted to ask you something?" Myles nods with a blush as (N) steps closer. "I. I really like you, Myles. A-And I hope you like me too." "I do. I really like you too (N)!" (N) nods and smiles. "Will you go out with me?" "Yes. Yes!" Myles jumps into (N) arms and cries into his chest.

(N) and Myles walk to school as usual. 'God. I can't believe we're finally dating. And to think I was so worried he'd say no.' (N) smiles and glances at Myles then at the male's hand. He looks at his hand and walks closer to Myles. "Hey, Myles. Want to hold hands?" The black male's face turns red. "H-Hold hands?! Now?!" (N) chuckles as a small blush covers his cheeks.

"We've held hands before. What's wrong now?" "W-Well. We weren't d-dating then...and now we umm." Despite his words, Myles hesitantly offered his hand. The blush on (N)'s face reddens as he gently holds Myles's hands. The sound of a moped slowing down gains the couple's attention. Rose coos at the two and grins. "Well look at you two. So cute together. Hope I didn't interrupt your make-out session."

Myles gasps at the redhead's statement. "N-No! We weren't doing that! We haven't even kissed mmm!" "Shhh stop talking!" Rose laughs as (N) covers Myles's mouth.

"Ugh! I get that we're seniors but all this studying is killing me!" Rose yells as she grips her hair in frustration. "I like being able to study with you guys." Yuna smiles as Yuki turns to Myles. "How come (N) isn't here?" "Oh, I forgot. He's at (F/n)'s place." Rose grins mischievously. "Sooo. How are things with (N)? Details please."The girls in the drama club stare at the male causing him to sweat. "Umm well actually-"

"What?! You haven't kissed yet?! Lame." (N) rolls his eyes at (F/n) while playing with Shiro. "Shut up. I'll kiss him when the time comes." A knock gains the teen's attention and the door opens. "(F/n). You have a visitor and she's very pretty." "What?!" The teen runs past his landlord and down the hall but comes back looking depressed. Behind him was a young girl with brown hair. (N) raises an eyebrow as his friend and the girl walk into the room.

"She seems a bit too young for you (F/n)." "Shut up! She's my sister!" The girl bows her head at (N) with a smile. "I'm Ava! It's nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you too. I'm (N)." The brunette looks around the room and frowns. "It's so messy in here! Big brother, you need to clean up!" The three clean the room as (F/n) complains. "Why're you here anyway?" "To see if you can take care of yourself but clearly. You can't so I'll be staying until you get your act together!"

"What?!" (F/n) throws his folded clothes on his bed and stares at his sister. "You are not staying here! What if I bring a girl over?!" (N) chuckles causing his friend to glare at him while Ava pouts. "But (F/n)! Where am I supposed to go?!" "Home!" "No!" "Ugh! You're so immature!" As the siblings bicker with each other (N) pulls out his phone. A grin covers his face. "Good news Ava. You can stay with my boyfriend and his aunts."

"Really?! Thank you (N)!" The girl hugs the teen and leaves the room. "Thanks for doing that man." "Oh, I didn't do this for you. I wanna see how this plays out." "What the hell?! What kind of friend are you?!" (N) leaves (F/n) to question his existence alone.

The Asumi family, (N), and Ava sat at the table eating dinner. "You're so sweet and polite Ava. It's a pleasure to have you here." Clara smiled at the girl as (N) chuckled. "It's hard to believe that she's (F/n) sister." "Feel free to stay as long as you like kid!" Ava smiles at Ash. "Thank you!"

"It's summer break and you spend your time working?" (N) asks while watching Myles stock the bakery shelves. "The whole summer won't be like this. I just wanted to help out. We can hang out tomorrow." A light blush covers (N)'s face but is covered up by an apron. He tugs the apron on and looks at Ash.

"Take care of the shop for me." "And where are you going?" The bleached-haired woman swings a bat around with a grin. "I'm gonna play! See you kids later!" Ash runs out the door as Clara enters the bakery with a try of rainbow cookies. Ava gasps and the woman turns to her. "Would you like to try one?" "Yes please!" The girl grabs a cookie and bites it. She shudders as Clara beams. "Do you like it?" "It's good and really cute!"

(N) leans into Myles and whispers. "Cute she says." "I've never used that compliment before." Clara stands at the entrance with her purse. "I'm going on a little errand. I'll leave the shop to you three." Some time passes and Ava looks around the empty bakery. "Where are all the customers?" (N) props his head in his hands as Myles answers. "We usually get lots of customers during the school year but things slow down during summer break."

The bell rings as a woman walks inside the shop. Ava smiles and approaches the woman. "Welcome!" (N) stands up as the woman walks to the counter. Myles checks her out and she leaves. Ava looks at the couple and grins. "You two watch the shop! I'll go get more customers!" (N) and Myles glance at each other as the girl runs outside. A few minutes later a group of guys walk in. "I didn't know a bakery was here." "Dude look!" "Ah. The black boy is cute!" Myles blushes as more people crowd around the bakery.

(N)'s eyes twitch and he runs out of the bakery after telling Myles to watch the store. He finds Ava standing at the corner. "Ava! What exactly are you telling these people?!" "A cute boy works here. Customers are customers right?" Before (N) could tell the girl off Myles calls for him. "(N)! I need some help in here!" "Coming!" Ava snickers and waves down some more people.

"Damn. You three made a killing!" Ash says while examining the register. "We sure did! Some customers even came back and brought Clara's cookies!" Ava grins as Ash crosses her arms. "That's surprising." "What do you mean by that honey?" "Clara. I love you." The black woman tilts her head at her wife. "I love you too." Ava pokes at (N)'s side. "Your turn!" The teen looks at the girl tiredly. "For what?" "Come on. Say Myles I love you!"

(N) and Myles's face turns red. "What?! I can't say that out loud! Jeez." "I-I'm going to start dinner!" "I'm going to sweep the front of the store." Ava pouts as the couple runs away.
