I woke up in Hasetsu Castle. I was in the office, and Yuko was standing over me. "You're finally awake!" Yuko declared, clapping her hands together. "I was starting to get worried." She handed be a cup of water, which I sipped at.

"What happened?" I asked. I started to rember what last happened, and tears prickling my eyes. "Last I remebered I was at home having a panic attack. Then I think I fainted..." That wasn't anything new to anyone. I used to faint at school from panic attacks.

Yuko looked at me in confusion. "You seriously don't remember?" she asked in amazement. I shook my head. "You chased Yuri around town with your wakizashi (small katana knife), threatening to kill him. He ran in heart as we were closing. Takeshi restricted you, then you just started crying, saying you didn't want to lose your sight then fell asleep."

"And no one thought of takong me home?" I asked, feeling a kink in my back from sleeping on the ground.

"We thought it would wake you, and you need your sleep," she said, pushibg my hair out of my face. She had started treating me like a daighter ever since the triplets awakened the motherly insitincts in her. I think it's my childish looks and innocent vibe.

"Well thanks," I said, getting up off the ground, "I should probably get home," I sighed, picking my wakizashi off the desk. "Oh, and I need to quit my job." I knew she was going to ask me questions, so I was just going to answer them. " It's for personal reasons, that you'll learn later. But I do thank you for the opertunity. I doubt it would have gone this far if it weren't for you. You opened my mind to do many new things. Thanks for being in my life Yuko."

"Aki..." dhe sighed, pulling me into a hug. I hugged her back. That was until I heard some music echoing through the skating rink. I made my way down to the ice. The song rang through my memory, On Love: Agape. On the ice was Yurio. What he was portraying in his skating wasn't Agape. The skating itself though was fine, and sorta went with the music. I watched as the Russian finished the short program.

"Aki!" Victor noticed me from across the rink and waved. The other two looked at me, with a bit of fear in their eyes. They finally learned to fear me, too bad i lost the fear in them. I was a little angry at Yuri, for all we know, him tell those two mg secret could ruin my life more than it already is. But seeing as there aren't more poperatzzi than usual, I think we are done for the time being. That didn't mean my brother was off the hook.

"I don't need violence to ruin your life," I told Yuri in Japanese. I got in positions to be ready to run, as Yuri was already making his anxious way over to me. "Yuri's room used to be coated in posters of Victor! He probably only took them down so you wouldn't see them." I yelled over to them in Russian, so my brother wouldn't know what I told them. After that I shot out of the right k and made my way home.

I was sittibg on the stairs that evening, waiting for my brother to come along and apologize. I had been kind to him in the past twenty four hours, and he deserved an apology. "Hey twerp," Yurio came along and sat next to me, "Is what you said true?" I could only assume it was about rhe postwrs. I pulled up a picture I had and showed him, earning a snort out of the younger Russian. We both just sat there in a not awkward silence. "You know the songs we're skating to, Eros and Agape?" he asked. Music, something g I was well adapted to.

"Actually pretty well," I shrugged, leaning back, resting my arms on the stair behind me. "I analyzed them for my entrance essay to that music school in Russia. Than I sorta wrote another song of a type of love I thought they missed." He perked up at that, I forgot he was a fan of Sarah Mei, and knew she was me. "I've never let anyone else hear it though, it was really something I did to pasd the time."

"Well whatever," he pushed it away, once again, tsundere, "I just wanted to know what those two mean to you?" I actually never thought about that. I knew what the conposer meant in ever note, but not what in invoked in me.

Agape was easy for me to figure out. Unconditional love. Something you will love no matter what happens. Something you can't live without. Sure people appeared in those thoughts my friends, family, my coach, even Victor and Yurio appeared in there for a second. One thing stood out to me though. The most prominent to me. "Agape is music," I told him, tapping on my knee with my finger. I felt like he wanted to respond, but gave me time to think of the other.

Eros was sexual love, something I never have gotten to experience, being demisexual and all. But it could also be described as desire. Something you would do anythibg for, even if yto have just for a tiny bit. It would make you go crazy for it. The stongest thing that resonated in my mind was an emotion. Happiness. But you need to experience it to love it. "Eros is happiness,"I said, sayong the last word in the language he didn't know.

"I don't know what you said, but it has to be better than the Piggy's," the Russian Punk snorted, "Prom Cutlet Bowls are Eros to him." I could see that my brother always loved food. He would cry when we were younger when I would ear his food. Mandy that's why he getts fat easily. He eats too much. Well compaired to me, who doesn't eant to eat anything, any food is too much.
