Seeing how Sayori flew out of the classroom at the request of Erika and Ryona not only hurt Omiko's heart but it also gave her a feeling of huge frustration.

Knowing she couldn't even have the chance to fight for Sayori's love anymore felt horrible, specially because she knew later that day, Sayori's heart would probably belong to someone already.

To make matters worse, she had another thing to take care of, as she remembered what happened that morning.

Just when she was about to leave for school, Omiko headed to her fathers car and just when she opened the passengers door, something fell off.

Luckily her father was still inside getting ready. Omiko crouched and picked up what was a familiar piece of paper.

'Stargaze', it read, an old ticket for the event she once went with her peach haired crush was now in her hands. She turned it around and just as she feared something was written in the back.

You're too slow.

Time is precious for me, and while I can't deny what you've been doing with Natsuki is okay, it's too slow.

It's been more than a month and your progress is not going anywhere yet, or at least not where I need it to go.

Today, you're going to give Natsuki not only those chocolates in your bag, but a kiss, on the lips.

I don't care how, just make sure Yuri sees. Otherwise your secret will be out before you get home.

Omiko intentionally had been delaying any possible progress with Natsuki, deep down hoping someone or something could get her out of this situation.

However, that didn't happen and whoever knew her secret, was running out of patience.

Was it possible that in the less than an hour time she had before her secret was out, a miracle could happen so she didn't have to do this to the couple of the literature club? It certainly was too much to ask.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sky was clear that day, the air wasn't so cold as it was just a month before the start of Spring and the peace in the atmosphere of school was lovely.

The sound of gentle and steady footsteps entered through the waiting girls ears.

Sayori stood next to the other only girl there, who was silently watching the people passing by from the distance. She slid her hand and intertwined her fingers with the girls owns.

The girl responded by squeezing Sayori's hand gently while a happy smile crept on her face. "Thanks for coming", she said. "I should be the one thanking you", Sayori replied as she smiled warmly, joining the girl in her quiet gaze at the surroundings. "What now?", the girl asked shyly. "Well, you can't keep me waiting forever, can you?", Sayori giggled as she leaned against the girls arm. "Right, sorry hehe, it's just... This is so new to me", the girl replied blushing lightly. "You're cute when you show that side of yours", Sayori said as she pulled the girl closer forcing her to face her.

Sayori then placed a hand on her cheek and rubbed it with her thumb gently. Finally the girl leaned forward a little, closing her eyes nervously and her lips finally met the soft and pink lips of Sayori.

Their kiss lasted a few seconds but it felt like hours for both girls thankfully, and it was all they ever dreamed of.

"I think I will never forget this Valentine's day", Sayori said looking into the eyes of her new lover. "Me neither", the girl giggled happy.

"I love you, Sayori", the girl said staring back at the beautiful blue eyes of Sayori. "I love you too, Ry", Sayori replied with her hand still on Ryona's cheek.

At that moment, not a single raincloud formed in Sayori's mind.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuri was feeling nervous. Despite Natsuki already being her girlfriend, the thought of her first Valentine's day where she could actually do Valentine's day stuff was exciting somehow.

The purple one was coming back from the bathroom, with an idiotic smile on her face willing to not let anything ruin that day, not even her clumsily bumping into a random person while she was on her way back to the literature club.

Omiko approached Natsuki a few moments after Yuri left to go to the bathroom. She called her and Natsuki stood up from the floor where she was waiting for her girlfriend.

Natsuki followed Omiko to her seat curious. "What's up Omi?", Natsuki asked. "I-I, well, I-I wanted to give you these, senpai...", the glasses girl said handing a little bag wrapped with a green mint ribbon. "Oh, friends chocolates, thanks pal", Natsuki said showing her canines in a cute smile. "S-Senpai, I-I...", Omiko said very nervous. "What's wrong?", Natsuki asked now a little concerned.

Omiko heard footsteps approaching the club almost as if she and the one making the sound were the only people at school and the world was filled with dead silence.

The space lover girl prayers for a miracle but were never heard.

The moment Yuri crossed that door and glanced at them happened almost in slow motion for Omiko Imai, who simply closed her eyes holding back tears and grabbed Natsuki's face pressing her lips against the pink one's in the most bitter kiss she ever felt.

Natsuki's eyes went wide open in surprise of her friends sudden action. The pink one quickly tried to push her away but the kiss didn't last more than 2 seconds anyway.

"I'm sorry", Omiko said as she pulled away from the kiss with now tears forming in her golden eyes and immediately stormed out of the room.

Yuri's eyes were now staring blankly at the nothingness.

After witnessing what she feared the most Yuri's mind and reasoning shut down completely. Her mind was like a Tv only transmitting some kind of red static.

Yuri began running one of her hands through one of her long strands of purple hair absently, and just when her hand brushed near her blazers pocket she noticed something solid inside.

Yuri stopped her hair brushing motion and moved her hand inside her blazers pocket only to feel something she of all person could recognize very well.

The shape of a little pocket knife.

Yuri didn't think, neither she cared that much at that moment when or how had that got there.

The purple haired one then calmly left the clubroom.

"Yuri!", Natsuki yelled for the tenth time as her lover exited through that door.

The short girl then rushed and before she could follow her through that door, she felt a hand grabbing her by the wrist.

Natsuki turned around and saw Monika who had been witnessing everything from her seat in the front desk. "I'll go check on her, you should stay here for now", the brunnete said with the most calmed tone she could manage. "B-But I-", Natsuki muttered nervous. "I know, just wait here okay? Everything will be fine, I promise", Monika said with a smile that seemed to convince Natsuki. "Alright", the pink one stepped back and simply stared at Monika as she left the room following her girlfriend.

Omiko was now in the girl's bathroom looking at herself in the mirror after splashing her face with some water to hide her tears before she could go home. The girl felt like shit and was wondering if it was really worth the effort at all.

Before she could get deeper into her thoughts, the door creaked open quietly but enough for Omiko to hear.

She glanced at the door and immediately recognized the long purple hair. "Y-Yuri-senpai, I-I'm so sorry I-I...", Omiko muttered nervous starting to sweat. Yuri didn't reply, she just silently and slowly continued walking towards her with a blank expression but still her violet eyes fixated on her. Omiko felt her legs trembling as a chill ran down her spine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Should we go back to the club?", Ryona asked while she had her arm wrapped around Sayori's shoulder. "Later, when it's time to leave, I still left my stuff there", Sayori joined the tips of her fingers. "Okay", Ryona said and quickly felt heat rushing to her face as Sayori wrapped her arms around her waist and pressed herself against her in a lovely embrace. "You're soft even though you're strong, I love that", Sayori said closing her eyes feeling the warm of her new lover. "Y-You are soft too", Ryona said embarrassed. "Love meeeee!", Sayori whined. "Okay! Okay!", Ryona said startled as she returned the hug running a hand through Sayori's soft short hair. "That's better", Sayori said smiling happy for once. "I'm sorry, I just-", Ryona said being abruptly silenced. "Shhh, we'll talk about that some other time, just give me some love okay? I really need it", Sayori said still glued to Ryona. "I'll give you all the love in the world", Ryona said kissing Sayori's forehead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Monika saw just in time the moment Yuri entered the bathroom, 3 seconds later, she would've lost her.

The girl with the white ribbon instantly had a bad feeling the moment Yuri left the room. Deep down she knew why, although she refused to believe it yet. Whatever the case, it was for the better Natsuki stayed out of the situation so she convinced her to do so.

"Y-Yuri-senpai, I really didn't want to...", Omiko muttered feeling how her legs started to give up on her. The taller girl continued without response, just a few feet away from her.

Yuri slowly moved her hand inside her blazers pocket, reaching for the familiar shape she had felt there moments ago.

The sound of the door slamming open quickly made the glasses girl turn her gaze to the door only to see a girl with hair tied in a long ponytail standing there with a nervous smile.

"Omi-chan! Come with me, the teacher needs to see you right now", Monika said trying to sound as convincing as she could looking at the first year member with pleading eyes.

Thankfully Omiko caught up quick and rushed past Yuri making her way towards the brunette. "Come on let's go, I'll see you in the club when you're done Yuri", Monika said placing her hands on Omiko's shoulders gently pushing her out the room.

"Sh£ i$ min3".

Yuri was left with nothing but her thoughts, or rather only thought in her mind.

"Tch".

Monika turned her head at the sound as she guided Omiko back to the club, apparently coming from somewhere near but she didn't see anything.

Am I hearing things now?
