"wow!! You're so cool,chiaki kun!!" The girls gush and I chuckle.

They were so adorable.

I loved the attention they gave me.

It made me feel wanted...

I look over to see Vivian on the bleachers.

She notices me,looking into her eyes.

She was sitting next to my brother,Junya.

Vivians eyes travel to the girls surrounding me,then back at me,rolling her eyes and back at Junya.

She says something to Junya,and he nods and says something back.

She laughs.

...and I can see the way Junya looks at her.

Mesmerized by her smile.

I turn away.

Be happy for her,chiaki.

She had broken up with me not long ago.

And she didn't understand how much it tore me apart.

But I didn't tell her. I smiled. And I agreed.

Because if she wanted me...she'd come to me.

I look back at her.

I wanted...her to be mine again.

But...she didn't want that.

Did she...?

"C'mon,Aki kun!! Theres a party at my house tonight! We want you there!" The girls gush.

I smile my charming smile at them.

"Ofcourse."

I will get lost in the music.

In the booze.

Until I can't think about her anymore.

It's all that I can do.

It didn't bother me at first.

I just wanted to see her happy.

But now...it was really getting to me.

I was so cocky,thinking she couldn't resist me.

The girls I sleep with...

They'll never be Vivian.

But they'll have to do.
