Tokyo, Shibuya, August 1st 2005 :

'12:17...' Your half lidded eyes lazily reading the clock on your nightstand. After a couple of times of rereading the numbers, you finally realise what they mean.

"Oh, it's late."

It took you a while to remember that you had plans today, at 13:00. You jumped out of bed and quickly rummaged through your closet to find proper clothes. You ate breakfast, gave your parents a goodbye hug and took your bike to go to the meeting spot.

You could already see Emma and Hinata waiting for you at the meeting spot. Apparently, they met at the toman meeting you missed due to your fever. It sucks a lot, you wanted to get to know Hinata better too. And that's why you decided to meet up with them today, a lighthearted shopping trip with the intention of getting to know eachother better.

The short walk to the shopping center was enough for everyone to open up. Hinata's such a sweet girl, she allowed you to call her Hina and even paid for the drinks.

It was only when you sat down at a cute bakery, that Hina started telling you more about Takemichi and how worried she was. She looked super cute because her cheeks would turn pink every time she mentioned him.

Emma then came with the idea of asking him to go to the festival with her, which is absolutely genius. You immediately agreed with her and so did Hina, although you could see her cheeks turn pink, again.

Since Hina's going to ask Takemichi to the festival, and both you and Emma didn't have anyone to go with yet, you decided to go together. It would be like a friend date, and you could watch over (spy on) Hina and Takemichi.

You started heading back around dinner time, walking through the park and holding a lighthearted conversation. There were a few guys playing soccer, but you didn't pay them any mind. At least, until Hina noticed Takemichi laying on the floor nearby.

It was almost too good to be true, today would be the perfect timing to ask him about the festival. Plus, he seems to be alone.

Hina and Emma approached the guy, they were faster than you as you ended up getting a bit distracted by the soccer guys. Their voices seemed familiar but the sun was low and it blinded you vision. You held a hand over your eyes to see more clearly, only to notice Mikey and Draken playing soccer with kids around Takemichi's age.

You heard from Emma that Mikey and Draken were having a fight, so this scenery was certainly unexpected. They look like they're having fun, they must've made up, luckily.

"Oh? N/n? Why are you here?" Draken's low voice followed by a distant 'hm?' from Mikey, snapped you out of your thoughts. A smile forms on your face and you excitedly wave at them.

"I was out with Emma and Hina, they're with Takemichi now though."

"Oh? Was it fun?" The sun was blocked by Draken's tall stature when he moved closer to talk to you. Mikey followed after him, but was slower since he had to get rid of the soccer ball.

"Lots of fun." You nod in confirmation, happily smiling as you're reminded of the good times at the mall.

"I did hear you guys got into a fight though." Unlike your expectations, they seemed awfully calm about the question. You thought you'd at least get a pouty face from Mikey, but he just shrugged as Draken explained everything to you.

You laughed a bit when he revealed that neither of them remembered why they were fighting, it's so like them. Then Emma joined in, extremely surprised that they made up. She started rambling on about how worried she was.

A warm hand wrapped around your wrist and started tugging at you, making you turn your head and lock eyes with Mikey. Seems like he snuck behind you when Emma was busy distracting Draken.

"Come, I wanna ask you something."

"Sure"

He led you somewhere behind a tree, looking back to make sure nobody's following you. It seems like he's specifically watching Draken, who does seem to be looking for you.

"Look at me." Your head turns towards him, intently observing his face with curious eyes.

"Yes?"

"Y/n, go to the festival with me."

"I can't, I'm going with Emma, and I don't want to ditch her like this." You nervously smile a bit, feeling guilty about the situation. This is the first time he's ever asked you to go to a festival with him, and you have to turn him down. It does make you blush a little bit, it's almost like he was asking you out on a date.

"Oh, too bad I guess..." He turned away, not wanting you to see his sulking face. It made you feel even more guilty.

"Uhm... You could join us? If you want to."

"Go to the festival with you and Emma? Nah, that's lame." You could see him glance back at you over his shoulder, his face expressionless as he starts heading back to Draken and Emma.

"Wait for me here." You watch him leave, waiting for him at the tree like he asked. He talks with Emma, who gives him a displeased look as she puts her hands on her hips.

Both Mikey's newfound happy smile as he walks back to you, as Emma's slightly pouty face, gives off the impression that Emma gave into him. He picks up the pace and smiles really, really brightly when he finally reaches you.

"Emma said I could have you for this festival."

"Really?"

"Yeah, so go with me."

"Okay then."

Mikey grabs ahold of your hand, taking you to walk back to the others with him. He lets go when you're right next to him, your pace matching his. He adjusts his footsteps so they match yours, his head lowered so you can't see his pink cheeks, that also match yours.

Once his cheeks are back to normal, and his heart isn't racing anymore, he goes back to playing soccer. Leaving you to talk with Hina, and a sulking Emma who can't believe her lovesick brother had the audacity to steal her festival date.
