The Vocaloid Family

Chapter 5

3:10 Rin's Bedroom

Rin strided towards the door and opened it with no hesitation. Gakupo looked down at the 14 year old and entered the room. He stared out the window.
"We need to settle this." Gakupo said sternly, as if he was talking to the window.
Rin huffed. "What, are we going through some sort of war? Besides, I mean, y-you were the one staring at me..." She stuttered with her words. She was angry with Gakupo, but she didn't want to hurt him.
"How could I not. I'm not just saying your pretty just because i'm in love with you, any boy in the world who only saw a photo of you would say you are pretty. I just couldn't help looking at your face." Gakupo turned his head to the left, this time looking at the wall.
"Yeah well-" Rin stopped dead. She recalled what he had just said.
Just because i'm in love with you.
"...What?" She went to his side and looked up at his face. He kept his eyes on the wall, then looked at her. Rin found it hard to keep looking into his eyes, but then it was almost as if she was in a trance, and she thought nothing of it.
"My dear, you heard me. I am in love with you, but I came here to stop it." He turned his whole body towards her.
"This has become tough for both of us, so I decided to come and tell you not to worry about me anymore. Try to think as if I never existed. I will ask for Luka's hand, and you will no longer have to protect Len from her like you have been doing so. And then Rin, you can find your man. So don't worry. Gakupo's hands merged into fists. He remembered the milk. "Don't worry. Don't."
Rin grew fearful of Gakupo. "But....you're right. We cannot be together. Luka loves you. I know she does. You-"
Gakupo stopped her. "I also came here to tell you to forget what they say." The fire in his eyes burned harder than Rin could imagine. But now, the flames were being taken out by water, as they poured down Gakupo's face.
"We can't go on like this. They've always taught us to love who was right. You can't see it starting? Len is falling for Luka. And Luka will want him more than me. The milk. It was a sign. Our thirst for the white dairy product lead us to where we are today, today I am in love with you, and I don't want to go back. Even because of differences people will start to fall for others. It just goes that way. We need each other." And Gakupo wanted to go on, but he didn't know what else he could do to get Rin to believe him.
"Gakupo...our age.." Rin couldn't believe herself, trying to get away from Gakupo, but she was scared. Everything seemed to lead nowhere.
"Age is just some numbers Rin! Would you really let some measly digits keep us away? That's just what they want to happen!"
Rin didn't know what to do. But she did know. Now she knew. She wouldn't keep lying to herself, her heart, her head. Right from wrong. Rin was made to go right. Left was wrong. But wrong seemed better, a direction few people try to chance. This, chancing her life, with the person she really cared about.
"I love you Gakupo. And I didn't know how to say it, but I did. Gakupo...could you hold me now?"
Gakupo did not do this lightly, immediatly grabbing hold of her and putting his arms around her. And Rin cried moderatly loud. But their love was contaned in Rin's room, with a revolution sparking in their hearts.

In the kitchen, a happier and more humorous place
Len sat at the kitchen table sucking on a banana lollipop, his eyes staring at Luka. She was still in her work uniform, but she was still pretty besides the dull colors she wore. Her pink hair was at the side and shimmering nicely.
Len found it quite impossible to focus on homework.
"Hi Luka." Len smiled and put his head on Luka's arm. He licked his lollipop and stared up at Luka's eyes, that had not moved from her iPad that she was typing on.
"Hi Len sweetie." She seemed tired, even though it was only about 3:25. She still managed to smile at him before looking back at the device.
"You want to go play a game outside? How about football?" He knew Luka was busy, but he really wanted to spend some time with her.
"Not today sweetie. I've got a lot of work to do." She did want to play with Len, but it was all too much to deal with.
"Pleaseeeeeeeee? Just one quick game. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-"
Luka turned off her iPad. "Okkkkk. Go find some of the others while I put on something better for the game."
Len jumped out of his chair and leaped up into the air. "YESH!" He then ran off, looking for people who wanted to play.
10 minutes later Len had rounded up Kaito, Lui, IA, Cul, Meiko and Lily to play the game. He wanted to get Rin to play too, but when he knocked on her door, no one answered, and he thought he heard "Sakura Princess" being played in the background. He tried to open the door but it was locked. Oh well Len thought.
Everybody was soon outside, including Luka who was in now in casual clothing.
"Ok, now lets-" Kaito started to talk, but was inturupted by Meiko.
"Um, who put you in charge? Just because you're the only actual man here doesn't mean you're the leader." Meiko crossed her arms.
Kaito smirked. "Gah, Meiko it's a game. Besides, i'm like the only one here who actual knows how to play football right.
Right after that the eight were split into two teams: Len, Luka, Lui, Meiko on one, Kaito, Cul IA and Lily on the other. Len guessed that Kaito planned it that way, for all the shotas and girls on a different team than his own, which had the tougher looking girls on it. He also wanted to kick Meiko's butt, so he put her on the other team.
The game started with Lily screaming "IM OPEN RETARD!" Supposdly Lui was guarding her but Lily kept tripping him. Kaito finally threw the ball to Lily and was barely ten yards away from the touchdown mark. She got it in right away.
And that was the basics of the game from then on there. Kaito threw the ball to his teammates and they came up with some plan to mess up their guards, either by tripping them or hitting them violently, and there was no shot of Len's team winning. Lui was the one who ended the game, who gave up crying. Len felt stupid suggesting this whole idea to Luka.
Luka calmed down Lui, and Len sat next to her.
"Oh Lui, Lily didn't MEAN to hit you with a shovel. Oh, well I guess she did, but...you'll be fine Lui." Luka really needed to ground Lily sometime or another, but she always got out of it, just like she had gotten out of dentention that day.
"T-thanks Luka..." Lui sniffled a little, then saw Ring come out of the house. He went inside with her.
Luka stared at the grass before looking at Len. "Well, we tried. It was fun right?"
Len cocked his head to the side. "Huh? Fun? I thought you would've been mad at me for making you play when it was a total waste of your time. We didn't even win."
Luka smiled. "You can't always expect to win. And I was ok with it. It was nice to be outside for once instead of stuck inside around all those gagets and stuff. But mostly, I just enjoyed being with you."
Len's expression brightend and he moved closer to Luka. She gave him a squeeze and Len had never felt warmer in his life.

Sakura Princess was on repeat on Rin's iPod. She had put her hair into a ponytail and lied next to Gakupo.
"I love this song." Rin whispered. She didn't want anyone to know that they were in her room.
"Just like our love.." Gakupo said back, as he lied next to her.
Rin smiled. Wrong was good.
