Let it out

Oranges

New chapter! Please comment if you have anything to say!

Ai's POV

I led Nanami into the garden out the back of the stadium. I needed to talk to her. "Nanami, are you becoming an Idol?" " Yes. Shining called me up to the office and told me I was kicked out of school, but I could become his next idol. So I took the job. Why, is there something wrong?" " Nothing really, I was just curious. And I wanted to tell you to watch out for the others. I heard them talking and they sound pretty mad at you." " Oh, ok." I watched as she went and sat down on a bench. She sat there and stared at the orange tree branch that was hanging above her. She reached up and grabbed two oranges. "Here." She said as she handed me the Orange. " Thank you." We peeled and ate our oranges in silence. "Ai-Kun? Did you really mean it? When you said that you would help me manage my stress?" " Yes I did. If you are stressed, then it will affect your songwriting, and that will affect my career." I said this with no emotion at all because I didn't want her to see through my lie. I felt something around her, and it should be impossible for me to feel. This feeling made me want to help her, it made me want to protect, and never leave her side. "Oh. Well I need to get going. Bye Ai-kun." Before I could say goodbye, she was already running away.
After that day, we spent almost all our time time together. I would either be helping her compose or study( since she got kicked out I'm teaching/home schooling her). Whenever we would be working, we would eat oranges. It was our thing. We would eat oranges, study and sing. We would laugh, scream, cry, and feel. Something I didn't know how to do. I helped her straighten her life out and manage her stress. She gave me a heart in return. The most important feeling I discovered, was love. I loved her. I loved Nanami Haruka. My composer. My rival. My friend. My love. I was going to confess to her one day. I just didn't know when.

It had been a year since I started working with Nanami. A year since the day under the Orange Tree. I went to her room. I needed to talk to her. I needed to confess my love. There was a note on her door. It had my name on it.
Dear Ai,
     I'm really sorry, but I've switched agencies. I don't know why. You can ask shining. Well anyways, I just wanted to tell you that I'm really grateful for all the help you gave me this past year! I hope to see you around.
                                           Sincerely,
                                            Haruka
What?! I opened the door to her room and she was gone. All her stuff was gone and the furniture was covered in white sheets. All that was left was a bowl of oranges on the table by her bed. "Haruka...but. Why?"

Haruka's POV

*sigh* I hope Ai got my note. I feel really bad leaving without saying a proper goodbye. I didn't get to tell him that I - I.... like him. I'm sorry Ai. He probably didn't feel the same anyway. Silly me. Falling in love with a robot. A handsome robot with an angelic voice who won me over with his whole being. *Sigh* "Goodbye Ai." I said as I looked at the Orange I had in my hand.

That is the end of this chapter. I'm sorry that it's so short. You see I got grounded and am being very sneaky right now. Hahah! Anyway, I couldn't get anyone to come do the outro so I guess I have to do it.

Ps- I forgot to put what happened between her and the guys, but basically she did that whole breaks down crying, the guys say her name one after the other and they all make up. The end, yay.

Me-Bye, I'll see you when my parents give me my freedom back... Maybe I'll have Ai convince them...
