They walked back to Yuma's home hand in hand. "I want to take you somewhere on the weekend, but not this one. Is that alright?" Yuma nodded enthusiastically. Any time with Kaito is worth enjoying. He thought about the 2 weird dreams he had that were in the rain. He pushed the thoughts aside and looked forward to that day.

Haruto was picking up a pile of papers that he knocked down when he came across a certain paper. He read some of it then shook his head. "He's almost done isn't he...I hope he doesn't get found out." He put the papers back then walked out, taking one last glance at the pile.

Yuma and Kaito were watching TV and cuddling. Yuma started to say something but then stopped as he felt Kaito's lips on his. It was sudden so it startled Yuma thus him pulling back. Kaito raised an eyebrow then moved back into a comfortable position. Yuma could feel his face flush with embarrassment and sat a little ways away from him.

Kaito eventually ended up leaving a short while later, leaving Yuma alone. As he was walking past Shixan Park, he paused, feeling nostalgic. He chuckled then continued on his way home.

Yuma wasn't sure what to do with himself. He didn't want to play anything so he decided to just sleep. He tried to fall asleep but it was all in vain. "What's keeping me up..? Is it too early? Maybe some music will help.." he thought as he played music from his phone. He texted Shark a few times before finally drifting off.

Shark notices that Yuma hasn't replied and assumes he's gone to sleep. He decided to look into the strange dreams Yuma has been having. He couldn't find anything on the recent dream he had. Shark was disappointed then decided to stop looking, seeing no results.

A week passes as things were normal as usual. Yuma and Shark are at their favorite place, Shixan Café, which is not too far from the park. "So, the weekend is coming up? Got any plans?" Shark asked. Yuma nodded but didn't say anything else. Shark raised an eyebrow but didn't pry any further. He noticed Yuma was swirling his raspberry tea ever since he took a sip of it. Shark poked his forehead then said, "What's going on in that brain of yours?" Yuma shook his head then began to drink his tea. Shark sighed then changed the subject.

Kaito figured he should tell Yuma this weekend the whole reason he's been around him. He figured this would tear him apart but maybe he'd be understanding. Kaito shook his head then looked at his desk which had a pile of papers. "It's too late to back out of this now..."

It was finally the weekend and Yuma got up bright and early. "Alright, let's see if I remember. We're going to a café, maybe do some shopping. He's going to be here at 11am and that leaves me with 2 hours to spare. Let's see..." Yuma said while he continued to think. He really wanted everything to go well.

Kaito arrived at Yuma's door at 11am sharp but took a moment to actually ring the bell. Seeing Yuma's beaming face, he couldn't help but smile back in return. They set off for the café in a neighboring place not too far out of town.
