--May 22---

Ted called me behind the shed, asking me to help him wrap his present for Teto.  He planned to give it to her at the carnival, after they "married."

I sat on the steps, waiting for Ted to return with the tape.  Looking up, I saw Kaito.

"Do you think he'll be gone for thirteen seconds?"

Kaito had promised me a thirteen second hug earlier that day.  I was about to answer when Ted came up with the tape.  Shaking my head, I smiled wanly.

I sat there and wrapped the box.  It contained Voldermort's wand, all the way from Orlando.  Teto, the biggest Potterhead we knew, would love it.

"Miku... I dare you to hug Kaito!"

I turned to see Miku glare at Rin.

Laughing silently, I sat on the benches.  Kaito looked at me apologetically.

"Just go behind the shed for now, Gumi.  I'll be right back."

I walked to the shed.

I sat on the steps again, waiting for Kaito to show up.

Finally, I saw him.

"Umm..."

He walked in, sidestepping the violins laying on the ground.  I followed.

Reaching over, he pulled me in, somewhat forcefully [Kaito said to change it to lovingly...].  It was a deja vu  of the last day of the previous school year.  I fought to keep the tears back.  We stood there, his arms around me and my head leaning on his shoulder.
