"I don't think I can make that interview today. I'm feeling a bit under the weather." I lie to my manager. Truthfully I have to go meet up with my gang that I was forced to join. I can't exactly tell him that.

It was around seven in the morning. I'd just woken up and hadn't even gotten a shirt on. We had to meet the gang at nine. Gangsters sure do wake up earlier than I expected.

"That's no problem. I'll cancel it, feel better." He says hanging up. I have such a kind manager. I feel terrible for deceiving him but it's for his own safety.

"Haru! Breakfast is ready!" Aoi yells from the kitchen.

"Coming!" I yell back.

I get out of my bed and throw on a plain white t-shirt. I grab my glasses and put them on. I usually wear contacts but I wear my glasses around the house. I run my fingers through my hair before heading to the dining room. I sit down across from Aoi and begin eating.

He'd made bacon, eggs, and toast. A more American breakfast but still delicious.

"Haru, I'm worried about you, your partner, Jun, he looks so scary. What if he hurts you?" He says giving me the cutest worried expression.

"I'll be fine Aoi. I'm not exactly defenseless."

I give him a reassuring smile and continue eating. I finish eating before him and head to the bathroom for a shower. I made sure to shower as quick as possible so Aoi would still have time to shower too.

After my shower I put on a white shirt, gray jeans, converse, a black hoodie, and my glasses instead of contacts. For some reason when I wear glasses people don't recognize me as quickly.

Aoi jumped in the shower right after me, it was already eight and it takes about 30 minutes to get there. We might be a little late.

I run my hands through my hair to get rid of my bedhead. I grab my phone and put it in my back pocket. I made sure to grab the written directions Mitsuki-san wrote for us on where to go when we get to the base.

Aoi comes rushing out the bathroom wearing a black long sleeve shirt, jeans that weren't too tight or too loose they had tiny purposeful tears on the thighs and were rolled up at the ends, with a red flannel around his waist and black vans with white laces.

"We have to go now or we'll be late!" He says grabbing my car keys and grabbing my hand.

He pulls me out our apartment and locks the door. He keeps hold of my hand and we make a run to the elevator and to my car once the elevator got to the first floor. We get into the car and he hands me my car keys. I start the car and rush to the base as fast as I could, but eight is usually the time business workers head to work so there was tons of traffic.

It took us about 40 minutes to get the base and we could park easily since now many come here. We were ten minutes late. I hope Zero doesn't kill us for being late. I haven't been here long, I don't know how lenient he is.
