Stars in The Rain

Dont Look

Tachibana Yui's POV

I entered the classroom and saw Sayuri's atmosphere covered with flowers. My imagination. "Good morning, Baka-usagi", she greeted. "Takuma-san and Kyouya arent fighting. They are just taking their time to absorb things", I flicked her forehead. "I hope you also do", I sighed. "Yui", Sayuri called my name. Its been a while since I heard her tell my name. She suddenly bursted out of tears. "Let me see Sei-san!!!", she whined. "Why do you suddenly want to see him?", she asked. "Please!!!", she begged. "No", I humphed her. "You smell like Sei-san shampoo", Sayuri stood up. I sniffed myself. How did I get this smell?

I face palmed when I realized that I also leaned in the table next to him. "Think whatever you want to think", I sighed. "Its your day next week, Yui. What will be your gown color? I will help in looking for one", Sayuri said. "Are you sick?", I raised my brow. "Of course I dont want other people to see you beside my Dad with such weird taste of clothing", Sayuri stucked her tongue. I caught it. "Eeeww! It's rough", I commented. Sayuri slapped the back of my head. "Baka-Usagi!!!", she shouted.

Dress Shops.
Sayuri is enjoying looking for my dress. "Yui, you look good on pale brown", she passes me a brown dress. I tried it out. It really looks good. "Let's purchase it!!!", Sayuri already paid it. "I dont really use this a lot", I said. "You're going to give it to me after you use it", Sayuri pouted. I see. We also shopped for casual dress. Sayuri asked for the dresses to be delievered to our houses. "Yui, arent you ashamed of leeching Chitoge's family?! You should stay at the house. Our family's reputation will be tainted", Sayuri said while we are walking on the streets. "Why dont you just say that you want to live with me?", I teased. Sayuri pulled my hair and rustled with it. "Stop being full of yourself", she said. I saw her blushing face. Sayuri stayed at the circle's fountain while I buy some drinks for us. Sayuri waved her hands when she saw me coming back. She was about to pass through the street when one car didnt follow the streetlights. A guy grabbed on Sayuri's back. I gulped as I saw him.

Tachibana Sayuri's POV

I was startled when I saw a car in frong of me. Fortunately, a hand grabbed my back. I see Yui's reaction. This smell, this presence of security, this hand... my tears streamed down my face. I was about to turn around when his hand covered my eyes. "You have to be careful", he said in a soft voice. I miss that. I miss that voice. I bit my lips. He gently pushed me. "The cars already stopped. Keep moving forward, Sayuri. Keep moving forward without looking back", he said. Its like saying, move on without looking at me again. My heart feels like its going to explode. I reached the other side. I clinged on Yui's shoulder. Why?! Why are ny feelings still strong for Sei-san?! I thought I am already doing good with Kyouya-san. Why does he have to appear in such a time? Wait. Didnt I want to see him? Why am I also hesitating to see him once again?

"Sayuri", Yui's comforting voice made me want to cry more.

I went home and locked myself inside the room. I wasted that shake Yui bought for me. I received a call from Kyouya-san.

Kyouya: Sai, I will be going to Miyaji for a while.

Sayuri: Have a safe trip.

Kyouya: Is there something bothering you?

Sayuri: Its nothing. I just have to need rest. Today was tiring.

I ended the call. I accidentally opened the drawer below my bed. Pictures of me and Sei-san are scattered in there. What if I confessed in the first place? Maybe it wasnt this hard. Hmmmm. No. If I confessed, then we havent gone this far. 

Yui's 18th Birthday

Hotel

Ryou and I are standing at the entrance since we are the host. The rest are wearing mask. Since almost everyone is a know personality in the industry, we also have to make sure that they are secured. Plus, a lot of people here arent even in good terms. Yui might be shocked to see people punching each other in this party. One person passed through, I smelled Sei-san on him. I faked a smile. Kyouya-san came running. "Why are you wearing a mask? Arent you the escort?", I asked. "I will escort you in the next party. People will glare at me if I do it two times", Kyouya-san sighed. "Kyouya-san. Today is Yui's special day. Make sure to make her happy", I shyly said. "You dont have to tell me", I chuckled. If its not Kyouya, then who?

Everyone already paraded and was introduced. We were lined up waiting for Yui and her escort. They both entered. The guy is still wearing a mask. Dad got the mic from the MC. "I am honored to present to you my daughter and her escort, BLUE's next president. Nakamura Seishirou", he introduced. Everyone clapped and also whispers are being heard all over the place. Kyouya-san happened to be my partner. I can see him clench his fist. "Were you aware of this?", I asked Ryou. He shrugged. "I am", Kyouya-san said. "That's why I will be the one to escort you. This is a business world anyways. Your Dad needs to present us as well to the board of committee", Kyouya-san clenched his fist. "Then... may the best man wins", I bit my lips. I wish what I said was sensible. "I prefer simple birthday celebration like one at the house", Ryou yawned. Ryou hates the crowd.

"Thank you for attending my birthday. I know that we are all different in this place. I hope we remove any barriers even just for this day to learn about everyone. The mask we wear are symbols that we are professionals. Even if we are not in good terms, we have to fake it until we make it", Yui said something that made me almost faint. Ohh, I cant see anyone punching each other. I bumped into someone. He assisted me. He is still wearing a mask. The family members are not. I gulped and withdrawn my hands. "How are you, Yui told us not to act different with each other", I forced a smile. "You look good on your dress", Sei-san said it naturally. I grabbed on a wine from a waiter's tray and jugged it down. "You're not good in handling alcohol", Sei-san said in his worried voice. "Why are you so good in acting?!", I complained. "How about a dance?", Sei-san invited.

Kisaki Kyouya's POV

"Wah, that hurts my ego. Why did you even chose that guy instead of me?", I complained as I approached Yui. "If I do, would you even have the chance to hold Sayuri's hand if you wont be her escort?", Yui teased. My vein popped on my head. "Still, good to see you alive", I patted her head. She let out her hands and opened her palms. "Where's my gift?", she pouted. Yui really looks pretty. I gave her a hug. "I was asking for my gift", Yui hugged me back. I grabbed a box on my pocket and let out a necklace. "Happy birthday", I wore it to her. "Shall we have a dance", I invited her. We can hear murmurs but we didnt mind. Sai is also dancing with today's suprise guest.

Nakamura Seishirou.
