Amaya's POV

I opened my eyes, waking up from my nap, when I felt someone tuck some hair behind my ear. I glanced over and found Nemesis-kun sitting by my side.

"Nemesis-kun... How did you get in here?" I asked. "You left your front door open." He said. "I did? I thought I locked it?" I mumbled, sitting up.

"Wanna watch a movie?"

"Sure."

We picked out a movie and sat on the couch as it began to play. "What did Osano talk to you about?" Nemesis-kun asked.

"Huh?" I looked at him in confusion. "I saw you talking to him earlier. What did he want?" He asked.

"He just wanted me to try some cookies he baked. He started attending a cooking class. He's really good. In fact, I think I still have some. Wait here,"

I got up from the couch, then went into the kitchen to get the bag of cookies before returning to the living room. "Try one. It's really good." I said.

Nemesis-kun grabbed a cookie and took a bite out of it. "It taste good," I smiled and went to grab a cookie myself until Nemesis-kun gently took my chin and kissed me. "But you taste better."

I blushed a little and he kissed me again. I kissed him back as he pulled me closer to him.

"Amaya, I'm home!" My eyes widened when I heard Yan-kun's voice. I pushed Nemesis-kun off of me and sat up from the couch. "It's my brother! Hide!" I whispered.

He quickly did as I said and hid behind the couch while I greeted my brother by the door. "Welcome home, Yan-kun." I greeted.

"Hey," Yan-kun greeted back. "Did I hear someone else just now?"

"I think you were hearing the TV." I lied as he took off his other shoe. "It's must've been lonely being here by yourself for hours. Sorry about that." Yan-kun apologized.

"It's okay. I'm happy as long as you're happy." I said. "You're always so sweet. I think you get that from Mom," Yan-kun replied as he petted my head. "Did you eat dinner yet?"

"No, not yet. I just watched some movies." I answered as he walked past me. I quickly caught up to him as he was making his way towards the kitchen.

"I'll order us some pizza." Yan-kun said, grabbing the phone. "Okay." I replied. "Hey, did you leave the back door open?" He asked.

"Huh?" I looked past him and saw that the back door was open. "Uh, yeah. I was taking out the trash before you came home. I must've left it open." I lied as I went over to close it.

'Nemesis-kun must've left through there.' I thought as I closed the back door. Yan-kun dialed the pizza place and ordered us a pizza.

"When do you think Ayano's coming home?" I asked. "Not sure." He said as he had pizza stuffed in his mouth. "Oh. So, how was studying with Taro?" I asked.

"Wonderful. He was able to help me with the homework our teacher gave us."

"Is that so? Is he also the one who gave you that hickey on your neck?"

Yan-kun blushed as he choked on his pizza. "I always thought it would be you who would be giving the hickies to Taro." I mentioned.

Yan-kun continued to cough until I handed him his glass of water, in which he gulped it down. Once he was done, I took the empty glass and went into the kitchen to refill it.

"Was it that noticeable?" Yan-kun asked from the living room. "Not really. I mean, most of it was covered by your shirt collar." I mentioned.

I walked back to the living room and handed the glass of water to him before siting beside him on the couch.

"So, are you ever gonna tell me who this person is?" Yan-kun asked. "Pardon?" I looked at him while taking a bite of my pizza.

"Oh, come on. Are you forgetting what we discussed this morning during breakfast? Who's this person that's made you feel? That's made you complete, Mom would say."

"Well... This person-"

"I'm home!" Ayano called from the front door. "Welcome home! You're just in time for dinner! Yan-kun ordered pizza!" I called back as I ran over to her.

'That was a close one.' I thought.

"Amaya, turn off that game." Ayano said. "In a sec. I've almost finished off this boss." I said as I thumbed through the controller.

"But you've already beaten the game a hundred times," She stated. "What makes it so entertaining?"

"Just being able to beat Dracula-chan is entertaining." I answered. "You have ten minutes, then it's lights out."

"Okay." I replied, and she closed the door. Ten minutes later, I turned off the game, then got ready for bed.

(The Next Day)

"Ayano already went to school?" I asked Yan-kun as he handed me my plate of breakfast. "Yeah. She wanted to spend a little "alone time" with Budo." He answered while taking a seat beside me.

"That's sweet." I said. "You never did answer my question last night." Yan-kun said. "Hmm?" I looked at him.

"Who's this guy you're seeing? The one who's made you complete?" He asked. He sounded dead serious as his eyes looked cold. "Is it Osano?"

"No." I answered while shaking my head. "Amao Odayaka?"

"No."

"Then, who?"

"Why are you so interested?"

"Because I wanna know if I have to kick the crap out of this guy if he ever breaks your heart."

Yan-kun had an innocent smile on his face when he said that. "Protective Big Brother Mode has activated." I mumbled.

"Oh, that's on all the time." Yan-kun grinned. "It wasn't on for Ayano when you two were fighting over Taro." I mentioned. "That's because it was competition and... Oh, shut up," He mumbled.

He snatched his cup of milk, then gulped it down. "But enough about me and Ayano. Back to the main subject. Who's the guy you're seeing?"

"You wouldn't like him if I told you, anyway." I stated. "Is it someone I know?" Yan-kun asked. "Kind of." I answered.

"Is he in our class?"

"No."

"Does he go to our school?"

"Yes."

"What class is he in?"

"He's not in any class."

"Is he a delinquent?"

"No."

"Damn it, Amaya! I hate playing 20 questions with you! Just tell me who he is!"

"Not with that attitude. Can we go to school now?"

"Fine, but this isn't over."

"If you say so."

Yan-kun and I got our bags, then headed to school. "I'll be right back." I informed. "Where are you going?" Yan-kun asked.

"Just to the Cooking Club." I said. "What for? Thinking about joining?" He asked. "No, I just need to get something from there." I told him.

I quickly headed to the Cooking Club and grabbed a knife. "What are you doing with that?" I glanced behind me and expected to see Yan-kun.

But to my surprise, I saw Nemesis-kun standing there. He was leaning against the doorframe as his arms were crossed over his chest. "What do you plan on doing with that, Amaya?" He asked.

"Insurance." I answered. "Insurance? Is someone trying to kill you?" He asked. "No, but it's better to be safe than sorry." I mentioned.

"You know, you look pretty sexy with a weapon in your hand." Nemesis-kun said as he made his way towards me. "How sweet of you, but you shouldn't be here. If my brother finds out you're here-"

"He won't." He interrupted me as his hands went around my waist. I placed the knife on the counter as Nemesis-kun kissed me and I kissed him back, my hands on both sides of his face.

Yan-kun's POV

"I'm telling you, Ayano. Amaya's seeing somebody and she won't tell me who," I said to her over the phone. "What I'm trying to say is, why would she have a need to hide her Senpai? It's not like we're gonna take him from her! We already have our Senpai!"

"I'm sure Amaya has her reasons, Yan-kun. So, you shouldn't go poking your nose into her business." She replied.

"I'm her brother. It's my job to poke my nose in her business." I stated. "Did she say what this guy was like?" Ayano asked.

"All she told me was that he goes to our school, but he doesn't attend class, and he's not a delinquent."

"But the way she described him, he sounds like a delinquent."

"Exactly, but she says he's not. You think she's lying?"

"I can't be sure. I've gotta go. I'll talk to you about this later."

"Yeah, okay."

I hung up and went over to Taro as he was waiting for me by the fountain.
