A Confession Under Fireworks

A confession Under Fireworks

"Good girl," her eyes seemed to gleam crimson in the poorly lit room as she spoke. Her smile was clearly visible along with her intentions. "Now, Neru, I want you to-"

At that moment my eyes opened and my breathing picked up heavily. I recognized my bedroom immediately and was reassured that I wasn't reliving yesterday. I didn't want to remember it. Luckily, that was all a nightmare.

I lazily stalked out of my room and advanced to the kitchen where I slouched over in one of the four dinning room chairs. My head fell to the side as my eyes began to slowly flutter closed, only to open in fear of dreaming of yesterday on more time.

My eyes scanned the room, noticing my yellow colored cell phone placed before me on the table, one of the lights flashing on it to indicate that I missed a call. I reached forwards and grabbed the phone, flipping it open and noticing it was from no one other than Rin. A sigh of relief escaped my sore throat.

I called her back, waiting a few minutes before she answered on the other end, "hey Rin, I noticed I missed a call, what's up?"

"Get. Over. Here. Now." And then she hung up, causing my stomach to twist. What if she found out about yesterday, if she's upset with me? What if she wants to....

My thoughts trailed off as I clenched the phone in my fist and carried it back to my bedroom. I made my way over to my closet, where my eyes scanned out fit after outfit before I came up with simply a white blouse and a black skirt. I quickly changed and then grabbed my yellow over the shoulder bag that was hanging on my bed post, placing my phone in the front pocket.

I was soon walking to the Kagamine residence at an eager yet slightly terrified pace, arriving at their door step in nearly no time at all. I inhaled a deep breathe before raising my hand, ready to knock on the door. But, before I could, the front door swung open and inside was a nervous looking Rin.

"N-N-Neru!" She squealed, her arms wrapping around me into a huh as her head rested on my shoulder. "I... I need advice."

"It's okay," I tried my best to reassure her, pulling away from the huh and closing the front door, my eyes scanned the house and noticed that there were no traces of her brother anywhere. "What's up?"

"Well, first off I'm freaking out because it's a Friday and we have school..." She paced around as I remembered the date, we were supposed to get our quizzes back today. No wonder she was ditching. "And I... I decided that I'm confessing today."

My eyes widened the words slipping from my mind trembled with fear, "t-today!? Why the sudden mind change!?"

If she really does tell Len about her feelings, that means I have until the end of the day to confess mine. Until sunset, until she's happily with Len and I'm miserable once again. I have to tell while I still have a slim chance of getting through to her.

"I can't wait longer... It's killing me..." She sighed, "all I can think about is him... How much I want to... Want to kiss him..."

Her face burned red as she talked, causing a touch of hurt to trail across my heart, "my little Rin is all grown up..."

She managed a half-hearted smile, "and don't you forget it, Neru." Rin pivoted the other direction and began to climb the staircase, soon reaching the top step and looking over her shoulder to make sure I was following. I quickly scrambled up the staircase after her as we stalked into her room and closed the door. Rin plopped on her orange colored bed with a nervous grin, "so, Len and are going to see the fireworks today."

"There's fireworks? Why?" I began to question the younger girl, this was the first time I heard of this event being held at such a random time.

"Who knows why! All I care about is that I get to see them with my brother! It's perfect." Her smile seemed so distant as she closed her eyes, obviously day dreaming of her perfect date with Len. "And when the fireworks are going and the night has reached its peak... That when I'll tell him."
