A/N I didn't want to keep you waiting. My mental health has been going on and off so I really don't know if I'll be posting regularly for this book. I apologize and I'm very thankful for your support and love that you guys give me. This chapter is very short but I promise this will be the only short chapter that you will read in this book.

I woke up next to Akage in our special cave. We were on a mattress that was leaning against the cave wall. The stalactites were decorated with Christmas lights.

The only reason why those could turn on was because of Akage's electronic skills. She connected some wires to a power supply and she connected the wires to the cave, causing our cave to have outlits.

I know, Akage is quite the electric darling.

We came here often. It was our little secret. No one in all of Arekussu knew about this place (A/N Arekussu means Alex, after the developer of YanSim. I didn't know what else to name the town). It was special. No one came into the woods that much either, so we always had... times to ourselves... if you know what I mean.

I'm only messing with you, darling! We've only been through that twice and that was, like, a month ago so, it doesn't matter. And no. You won't be getting a lemon anytime soon. Sorry.

Anyways, enough about the interesting stuff, let me tell you about what's going on.

Akage was sleeping peacefully with her shirt and sweater on the cave floor, leaving her with a simple black bra. I smiled and kissed her forehead. I stood up and walked over to our mini fridge (this place is practically our second home), grabbing leftover ramen.

I sat down on the bed and played with Akage's hair, taking a few bites of ramen every once in a while. Once I was half way done with my ramen, Akage woke up. She grabbed her glasses from the side desk and smiled when she saw me.

I smiled back. I offered her my ramen and she gladly took it. "What time is it?" she asked, her morning voice amazing as usual. "It's 5:50 in the morning," I replied. She nodded and grabbed my car keys, tossing them to me.

She threw her shirt on and smiled. "We better get home before Mom wakes up." I nodded and finished the ramen. We walked out of the woods, hand in hand until we see the town. We let go of each other's hands and get into the car.

Akage opened the driver door for me and closed it for me, running over to the passenger side and sitting down. "To home we go," she said as I turned on the ignition.

As we drove home, Akage asked me, "How important is our relationship to you?" I laughed as if it was a dumb question. "Oh, please, darling. I love it more than I love myself. And believe me, that's saying something."

"Then, you know for a fact, that you can kept our secret?" I smiled and nodded. "Of course, darling," I said and pecked her lips before turning into our neighborhood.

"I love you, Katame."

"I love you more, darling."
