"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight." Tatsumi said as he clapped on the beat. Meanwhile the members of Celestial, Reo, Shiro and Ren follows as they danced according to the choreography. "...Stop for a moment." Kaname said as the three stops.

"...Younger Hanagaki. Your steps are a little too slow. Yuugiri. You're a little to fast. Try and follow Older Hanagaki's example. He's the only one doing it right." He then said with a sigh. "...Ugh again? Man why can't we do this right? Or rather Shiro-kun you're too good. You sure you're not a former idol?" Reo asked.

"...I'm not. I'm just someone with experience as a dancer because I was once a backup for Kazehaya-san. Why not look up Wikipedia if you don't believe me? Although I doubt I got mentioned." Shiro said. "Haha don't worry Shiro-san. I can support you as a proof." Tatsumi said.

"In any case I'm surprised you three wanted to be in a unit together. I never knew you wanted to be idols so badly. You must have been better friends ever since we first met again." He then said. "...Ah?! Don't misunderstand. We're not doing this for ourselves. We're only doing this because a certain someone kept trying to do everything himself and I hate the sound of it." Shiro said with a 'hmph'.

"There it is! Shiro-kun's straightforward and blunt response!" Reo said. "Ahaha....but jokes aside we're really doing this for you Tatsumi-senpai. We don't want you to keep the burden by yourself so for all the times you gave us, the snacks and tea for example, we decided to make sure we take half of it." Ren said.

"...Is that so? I'm very honored. Thank you very much. Really." Tatsumi said. "Kazehaya Tatsumi agreeing to us being a unit is not all that surprising but...." Reo said as he then looks at Kaname. "...I'm surprised you agreed to become our instructor HiMERU." He then said.

"Is there a problem? The last time I agreed to listen is because I owe Sazanami for helping me out. This time I agree because of Older Hanagaki. Even though he hates me I won't feel satisfied until I repay the favour." Kaname said. "Ahh so that's why you didn't refuse when we asked." Ren said in understanding.

"Since we're at halfway through the song why not we rest for a while before continuing?" Tatsumi suggested. "...Well I suppose it won't be good to keep practicing without rest so let's do that." Kaname said. "Are the three of you fine with that?" Tatsumi asked.

"I'm okay with it!" Reo said. "Me too I could use some break right now." Ren said. "...Do whatever you want." Shiro said. "...Nii-san..." Ren said with a sweatdrop. "Haha. Well then let's talk about something else. Speaking of I heard the song is created by Shiro-san and the choreography is made by Reo-san and Ren-san. Is that true?" Tatsumi asked.

"Yep. According to what I heard from Ren-kun Shiro-kun is really good at writing songs. The songs that their mother, Hanagaki Riko-san plays are all created by Shiro-kun himself. So Ren-kun and I decided to help and contribute by doing the choreography." Reo said.

"Is that so? That's amazing! It's not easy to create songs so you must be a blessing to your family, Shiro-san." Tatsumi said. "...Not really. Writing songs is the only thing I can do to contribute that's all." Shiro said. "...Nii-san you really need to give yourself more credits. You underestimate yourself too much." Ren said with a sigh.

"What he said. At least smile at the compliments we're giving you. I mean are you that allergic to smiles?" Reo asked. "...Can you not say it as if I will die if i smile? I just don't see a reason to do so." Shiro said. "...Mou...we'll get you to smile one day so get prepared!" Reo said with eyes burning with determination.
