2006:

    Last night, Emma and I had a sleepover, so we started off our morning by cooking breakfast together. I was cutting up the salad, while my friend made bacon and eggs.

    "Grandpa, wake Mikey up for me," Emma asked the older man.

    Mikey was taking forever, so we started to eat without him.

    As I took a bite of my egg, I heard the blonde girl speak from next to me. "It's about time!"

    My boyfriend was still in his pajamas, carrying his small blanket as he sat down. His messy hair and sleepy expression made it obvious that he had just rolled out of bed. "Morning, Grandpa. Morning, (Y/n)." He took one look at his eggs before complaining. "Emma, I told you I like my eggs over easy with the yolks crushed."

    "Then do it yourself," I retorted.

    "Toss out that old towel already!" Emma huffed, as we watched Mikey stretch it in his hands. "You've been fiddling with it since you were little."

    I honestly find it adorable.

    "No. It's my life. Pass the soy sauce."

    The doorbell rang, causing Emma to take out her ponytail and fix up her hair.

    "I'm here, Mikey!" Draken shouted.

    "Go wait in my room, Draken."

    "I ran into Takemitchy on the way. Can he come in too?"

    "Sure."

    Once we were done eating, Mikey grabbed my hand and started to walk.

    "Hey! We're supposed to be having a sleepover here!" Emma shouted.

    "You had her all night. It's my turn now."

    Without even asking for my input, he led me to his room, where Takemichi and Draken were.

    As the door opened, we saw Takemichi marveling at my boyfriend's room, while Draken talked to him. "Well, most of the stuff belonged to Shinichiro."

    "The bed's the only thing that's mine," my blonde added.

    "Mikey!" Takemichi shouted.

    An irk mark appeared on my boyfriend's face. "Quit yelling. It's too early for that."

    Mikey sat on the couch, as I stood behind him, brushing his hair and tying it back. I know he can do it himself, even though he says that he can't. This is just his subtle way of making me play with his hair without asking.

    Takemichi sat on the floor, as he asked about a guy, who I had never heard about.

"I see. Izana Kurokawa." Mikey thought for a second. "The guy who approached me."

"What? You've met him?" Draken questioned, as he handed me a hair tie.

"Yeah. So, he's Tenjiku's leader, huh?"

After I had secured the elastic band, I walked around the side of the couch, so I could sit next to Mikey. "The eighth leader of Black Dragon... Mikey... Black Dragon... Shinichiro? Nope, I'm not seeing any connections."

"Okay, Takemitchy, I've got something to tell you." Draken then looked at his friend for approval. "Is it okay?"

"Yeah," Mikey nodded.
