Shattered Stars

15 | Our Last Song

  "Yay! Concert day!" Erissa exclaimed.

Satou and Erissa have been practicing hard for two weeks, trying to perfect the five songs that they would be singing.

"These clothes aren't really that comfortable to move in," Satou complained.

"Don't whine, you butt! If you didn't want to perform with me you could've said it two weeks ago," Erissa pouted.

Satou sighed. "I really don't want to do this."

After a long silence between the two, Guren and Blythe walked into the dressing room.

"Are you two ready?" Blythe asked, walking up to Erissa.

"Yep," Erissa smiled, then headed towards the stage.

"Oi Satou-kun, what did you do?" Guren asked, watching as Erissa walked out of the dressing room.

"I didn't do anything. I just said I didn't want to perform," Satou said, combing his hair.

"Honestly, that was stupid," Blythe commented.

"Shush. How was is it stupid?" Satou asked.

Guren and Blythe looked at each other, then looked back at Satou like he was an idiot.

"You do know that Erissa is a school idol, and she takes this idol thing seriously, right?" Guren asked, glaring at Satou.

"Yes, of course I do," Satou replied.

"Then you shouldn't go say things like that to her. If you didn't want to perform we could replace you with Mimmy or Fibel," Blythe scolded.

"Fine, fine. I'll go apologize," Satou said, giving into Blythe's reasoning.

"Good grief, Satou-kun. I gave up on Erissa for you to have her, yet, you don't try hard enough," Guren sighed.

"What? Who said that?" Satou asked, surprised at Guren's words.

"Just go apologize to Erissa, damnit," Blythe glared.

Satou nodded and went outside of the dressing room.

"Satoeri!"

"Shut it, Guren!"

"Boo!"

Erissa looked behind her, only to see Satou.

"That wasn't scary."

"Hey, at least I tried," Satou defended.

"Whatever," Erissa glared, turning back towards the stage.

"Hey, Erissa?"

The idol turned back to Satou, who was much closer to Erissa.

"E-Eh?"

"Sorry for saying that I didn't want to perform with you. I honestly do, but I guess I kind of let my complaints get the best of me," Satou said, scratching the back of his head.

Erissa smiled, then grabbed one of Satou's hands.

"It's fine, Satou-kun."

Blushing, Satou immediately turned around, only to see Guren and Blythe giving him a thumbs up.

"E-Erissa, its almost time for the concert," Satou stuttered.

"I know," Erissa said, still not letting go of Satou's hand.

"I.. uh.. I kind of lo—"
