-Mana P.O.V-
I felt sunshine perked into my eyes, annoyed by it I covered my eyes with a nearby pillow which is actually Seijuro pillow. "Ow...", I felt someone breath on my neck. The silky surface of the bed move a little. "Wake up Mana", a hoarse voice trying to wake me up.
"Leave me alone", I grumbled.
"I said wake up", Seijuro throwed my face with a pillow. "What the-".
"Hurry up, I will be late. I need to go to the airport as soon as possible", Akashi said sternly.
"Right...he's still be going anyway...", my face saddened as I recall what he said.
"What's with that long face?", Akashi pat my head gently.
"What...?".
"Let's go, you should have a shower too", Akashi reminded.
* * *
"Yo Akashi...and Mana?", Aomine greet us from afar, his face looks confused, maybe it cause by seeing us coming together. We finally arrived at the airport. The rest of the gang is waiting ahead. "Uhm...Mana-chan...that T-shirt of your..it's big...", Momoi glued her eyes to the black T-shirt Akashi lend me. "Seijuro lend his clothes to me", I replied blankly.
"EH!! AKASHI-SAN CLOTHES!!", Michigo and Hatsuki chorused in a dirty way.
"W-Wait, it's not like what you think", I sweatdropped.
"And you called Akashi-kun first name", Tetsuya added.
"Don't tell me you guys in a relationship now!!", Taiga protested.
"To be honest...I don't know...", I glanced at him.
Supposedly I already told him my feelings...but I fell asleep too fast, I end up didn't hear his reply. "You're talking nonsense Taiga", I scoffed. Akashi eyes are gazing deep into my eyes, I turned away as our eyes met, he chuckled when he see my reaction.
"You're doing well Manacchi...", Ryota smiled grew wider.
"Ah, Ryota I apologize for not realizing you here", I bowed.
"Figures", Ryota pouted.
"Mana-chin...are you okay now?", Murasakibara gave me a chocolate bar with a worrying face.
"I'm fine, and thank you for the chocolate", I nodded.
To be honest I'm not fond of sweets, but since it came from Murasakibara I might as well receive it. "I thought you will break down crying because Akashi departure, but you look pretty normal today", Midorima said hastily. "You...you know about Sei departure to America before me", I sighed. "Akashi told all of us, except you of course", Midorima fixed his glasses. "It's frustrating that I'm the last one who know", I gritted my teeth as I saw Seijuro from afar, chatting with his fellow teammates. "That's because it's hard to say goodbye to you", Midorima fumed.
"Why's that?", I asked.
"Still dense as ever, I feel sorry for Akashi", Midorima shook his head nonchlantly.
"W-What's that suppose to mean?", I retorted.
"Akashi didn't tell you, did he?", Midorima exhaled deeply.
"Tell me what?", I asked dumbly like a child.
Midorima sighed, "You two are hopeless". "W-What!?", I pissed off.
* * *
"I think it's time for me to go", Seijuro look at his watched. "We will miss you Akashicchi", Ryota said sadly. "Aka-chin, I will miss you~", Murasakibara frowned. "Don't forget to contact us later Akashi", Daiki grinned. "I will", Akasi nodded. "Akashi-kun good luck", Tetsuya cheer him. "Akashi-san, take care of yourself", Michigo and Hatsuki smiled. "Don't forget about us", Momoi frowned.
"They told their farewell words...what should I say...", I panicked.
I felt someone flicked my head from behind. "What's that for?", I pouted. As I turned around I saw Seijuro emotionless face. "No last words for me? How rude", Seijuro teased. "Be quiet, I'm thinking", I blushed. He chuckled, "There's no need for you to say anything, I believe we will meet again". "Really?", I brightened up. "Just an intuition", Seijuro coughed.
"Intuition he says? Great, what a 'smart' intuition he has", I chaffed as I rolled my eyes.
He draw the same star sign likr before. "What is this?", I asked. "A farewell gift", Seijuro fumed.
"He...knows...".
-Flashback-
"Do you think Asano-kun will come?", I pouted. "He will", that familliar shadow appeared once again. "I...I had a fight with Asano-kun...I hope he forgives me", I clenched my fist. "Don't worry, you will be alright", his warm hands clutch into my cold hands.
Then he draw a star sign on my palm, "Asano will forgive you, I'm sure of that".
"Thank you...Seijuro Akashi...".
* * *
"That's right! Seijuro is-".
I ran following Seijuro, I hope it's not late yet!
"Mana! What are you doing!?", Taiga shouted.
-Akashi P.O.V-
"This is it..I will leave Japan now...", I sighed as I carried my suitcase.
"SEIJURO!!!", a loud yelling called my name.
"Mana?", I looked at her confused.
"You look hurried, what's wrong?", I asked concerned.
"I finally remember...you're the boy from earlier...in my dream...", she gasped for air. I widened my eyes, much to my surprise she finally remember. "I've been looking for you", she glanced at me straightly. "I'm touched that you remember me but then what of it?", I smirked.
She suddenly hugged me. "I apologize for what I did back then".
A bright smiled slowly escaped from my face, "I already forgive you, if that's what you mean".
"I'm glad...oh and there's one more thing", she gave me her pink charm.
"This is belong to...you, isn't it?", I staggered.
"You said that we will meet again...I take your words, that's why when we meet again...I will be waiting for you to return that charm", she smiled.
"How dramatic, but...you don't have to wait for me, I might cause a lot of pain to you...", I frowned.
"Pain is a common thing all human feel, in this world human will constantly feel pain, agony, and sorrow. There's no escaping it, avoiding the pain means I'm only escaping my reality", she said bravely.
"She become mature a bit".
-Third person P.o.V-
As the plane toward the America flew higher, both Mana and Akashi wished that they will meet again. Mana stared the blue sky while the Red Emperor glanced bellow. Both of them chorused in their heart.
