As my days in Lantis continued, I noticed that everyone was a great singer. I heard some of their songs but still not all.

I was in the piano room listening to Kiramune's songs, particularly Irino Miyu's songs. I finished listening to CONNECT, and Namikawa-san's. I still had lots to listen. I also met the Trignal, and Yoshino-san. But I still haven't met Irino-san and Iwata-san.

After few minutes, someone entered the room. I knew his face, but I forgot his name. I think he was one of the song producer of Kiramune

"I heard from Matsuoda-san that you are looking for songs to do a version for Kamiya-kun?"

"Ah yes, I am almost done listening to Irino-san's songs."

"Did you have any songs that come to your mind?" He asked and sat down beside me

"I had one for CONNECT, but I wasn't sure if it will be alright. I changed some notes, but I haven't heard Kamiya-san's range of voice, so I am not sure if he can do this"

"Let me hear it" he said and then I played it in Piano

It was a punky groove of Connect sung by CONNECT. Ironic, wasn't it?

Once I finished up to the first chorus, he was so silent. Did he like it, or what?

"It might work. I mean, that was perfect" he shouted in awe "for Irino, let me handle it, listen to Kakihara's songs, then choose."

"I need to buy his albums, still, but I will"

"Oh you can go to the music store here. I mean it is not a store where you can buy, but we store all their albums there, and you can listen to them"

"Oh really? Where is it?"

He told me where it was and I went there immediately

"Wow! They really have this!" I gasped as I entered the room. There were lots of albums, regular and delux editions. Not just for Kiramune but everyone that under Lantis

I roamed around and saw the Kiramune section. And there I saw Kaki's albums. I grabbed each singles and mini-albums he had. At the end of the room, there were stalls where you can actually sit, and listen to the songs. Take note, they had good head phones

I sat at the very end, and started listening to his songs. So this would be all about Kaki's

His voiced was so powerful and the message of his songs were sinking inside me. I knew that they were all written by different people, but when he sang it, you could feel the message of the songs. It was not just him, but other Kiramune members too. There were some singers who have good voice, but lack in feelings that they couldn't convey the message of the song

I didn't know, how many hours had passed, but I was done listening to his songs. Not just him, but half of Kamiya-san's too

I was putting their albums back when I noticed some voiced not far from where I was. And when I listened to it carefully, this voiced, Kaki? And Akiba?

"So you wanted to tell me something?"

Somehow my instinct told me not to listen, but my body just moved and hid near them where I could hear them

"Kakihara-kun, actually, one reason why I said yes when Matsuoda-san asked me go work here was because you are here" somehow, I would witness some confessions "I was happy when I saw you again. We talked, and you really didn't change. The Kakihara that I knew is still the same." There was a silence and I could only hear the mellow song playing inside the store

"Akiba?" His voiced was a bit nervous and concerned at the same time

"I love you. I love you for a long time!" I knew it. There would be confession. And I was here listening. I shouldn't be here.

But it would be Kaki's decision. We broke up a long time ago, but why did I feel so much pain. I walked out and continued what I was doing. I didn't wait for his answer. It was out of my concern.

But it was obvious, I was curious on his answer.

I put back all the albums and grabbed my things on the stall. But to make the matter worst, on my way out, he and Akiba were going out too

"(F/N)?!" He called me. I noticed Akiba's eyes a bit reddish. Well, her voiced a while ago, she was holding her tears "you were inside?"

"I was listening to your songs. One of the producer told me to pick one song of you and convert it to Kamiya-san's style" I answered as we wait for the elevator "why?" I asked pretending I didn't know anything

"Nothing, I was just surprised" he said

"Why are you so tensed?" I asked him and shook my head "anyway, I was surprised that you have a place like this here"

"Isn't it nice?" He asked then looked at Akiba and told her concernedly "stop crying"

"What did you do? You sure love making people cry, don't you? Especially females"

"I am not." He retorted and the elevator came. We took it, and Akiba was sniffing all the time.

"Well then, see you around" I told them and got off to 3rd floor where the piano room was

I sat down and just stared at the piano. I felt so heavy on my chest. Was it because I heard someone confessed to Kaki?

I played one of his song, and sang it. Well the slower version of adrenaline

"Wow, a slower version. Is that the one for Kamiya-san?" What on earth was he doing here?!

"No, the theme is Rock music, right? I just felt like playing that." I answered while still playing the piano "what are you doing here anyway? Didn't you go with Akiba?"

"yeah, I sent her on the first floor and went here"

I wanted to ask him what was his answer, but I was scared to hear his answer

He then played the piano with one of his song, call my name, and he sang along

"Wow, so you can play piano" I chuckled

"Of course I can. What do you think about me?" He asked and stopped

"Well, an annoying ex of mine?" I sarcastically answered and we both laughed. But it became awkward. It seemed he wanted to say something "Kaki, do you have anything you want to say?"

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, I feel like you want to say something. If none, then it's fine" I answered then grabbed a pen and paper

"You really didn't hear anything when you were there?" he asked me. So he wanted to make sure that I didn't hear the confessions

"No, is there something I need to hear?" I asked him pretending I didn't know anything. Yes, I was so curious and dying to know what happened. But Kaki had his own life, and he need some privacy. We already broke up, so it was pointless for me to bug him and ask him what he answered

"No, nothing. I was just surprised you were there"

"I'm more surprised that you were there. No, not that. I was surprised that you are here today. You didn't have any schedules?"

"I do. Oh yeah, do you want to come? I will do a recording later for Fairy Tail, so do you want to come?"

I had a deep thought and became curious on how a seiyuu works "Sure, I am kind of interested on how Seiyuu works."

"Perfect, then wait me here. I'll just go get my things" he said then stood up

"I'll go get my other things too" I told him and we both went to second floor and got our things

Later that day, I went with him in the recording studio where he recorded his character Natsu on an anime called Fairy Tail. They were amazing! Pro seiyuu are amazing!

I met his, well he said seniors. Nakamura Yuiichi, Aya Hirano, Kugimiya Rie, and lots. He introduced me as well, as friend and song writer/composer for Kiramune. They also invited me to eat with them. No, not invited, but forced to join them

We ate at an eat-all-you-can sushi restaurant. They all ate a lot! I was surprised! Even the female seiyuu ate a lot. Oh well!

After that, Kaki sent me and Nakamura Yuiichi home. I asked him to send me first. I was having fun talking to Nakamura-san. Kaki was joining us too

Once I got home, uncle was there asking me where I went. As if I could lie, so I told him the truth. But his response made me curious

"Don't get too close with our seiyuu. Just be friends with them, but that's all" he said and went back on writing

"Uncle, is it bad if it goes beyond being friends?" I asked and he nodded

"The seiyuu are all famous. They do have lots of fans, and some are also working in our company. They entered the company to work with them. So what will happen if they found out that one of the staff has a relationship with one of seiyuu? Some might think that they also have a chance, but some might quit" he explained while doing his job

I sat down on the sofa and put down my things on the side "Then I should tell you uncle" he looked at me and waited for my next words "I'm in love with Kaki." His eyes widened and he put down his pen "Precisely, I'm in love again with him. I don't know if you heard that I only had one boyfriend in Germany. That person is Kaki"

"Did you know that you would be working with Kaki?"

I shook my head and reminded him "No, I didn't even know that he is this famous. I mean, that was a shock for me. Plus, you were the one who asked me to go here, right? And I didn't want to go. My parents just decided on their own" I sighed and stood up "Besides, I don't know, but Kaki might have a girlfriend already. It is just me one-sidedly love him, well again. So don't worry. I'm going to do my job properly. Oh yeah, this" I handed him my usb and smiled "I kinda recorded the melody that might work on Kamiya-san's mini-album. I mean, his version. There are three songs there. Two from CONNECT and one from Kaki" I shouted as I went up to my room

I threw my bag and grabbed clothes from my closet and had a shower.

After taking a shower, I noticed a message on my phone and it was a voice mail from Kaki

"Hey, thank you for today. I had fun, everyone had fun too and they were glad to meet you. Let's hang out again some other time. And your voice while singing my song, it was very beautiful. Anyway, good night"

"Stupid Kaki" I chuckled and sat down on my table and started scribbling some songs

~

A month had passed and my days were passing so peacefully that it was kind of suffocating. I wasn't sure, but I just hated how peaceful it became

I sat on an empty meeting room, revising some notes they gave to me. They wanted me to revised Lee-kun's and Horio's notes. Well, their compositions were great, though there were some off notes

An hour after, Horio came and she was with Banda-san and Lee-kun

"What are you doing here, (F/N)-nee?" Horio asked me, and when she went beside me, she noticed what I was doing and chuckled "Oh, so you were the one revising our compositions?"

"Ah, yeah. There are some off notes, but they are all good" I told her and she smiled "Are you guys having a meeting here, or what?"

"Well, we saw you while walking, so we went inside. We had no particular thing to do, just finishing a project given to us so we are looking for an empty room" Lee-kun answered

"I see. Well, the room is big enough for us" I told them and they all seated. They were talking about a project Matsuoda-san told them to do

"Akiba is skipping her job again" Banda-san sighed "She is not here again today"

"Does she have a problem or what?" Lee-kun asked them then they looked at me

"I don't know anything" I answered and they chuckled

"Well, don't tell anyone, but she told me that she confessed to Kakihara-kun" Banda-san answered. Wait, was that the reason why she was not going to work?

"She did? So they are going out?" Horio asked

"Idiot, if they are going out then she will be happy to go to work, right?" Lee-kun disagreed

"Yes, Kaki rejected her confession. She said that he said it in nice way, but she just couldn't accept the fact that Kakihara-kun still like his ex-girlfriend"

"WHAT?!" I immediately reacted

"According to Akiba, the reason why she was rejected because Kaki still likes his girlfriend. But that girlfriend was from 10 years ago when he was in Germany. That was a long time ago, right?"

I stayed quiet trying to remain on my composure. Were they serious? I mean, Kaki still? We have mutual feelings?!

"I also heard from the other song producers that some of his songs were dedicated to her." Banda-san added "To think Kakihara-kun had that kind of side, it was interesting"

"We can make a song for that, right? Anyway, let's finish this even though Akiba-san is not here" Lee-kun chuckled and then again

"(F/N)-nee will you help us if we have questions?" Horio asked sweetly that I couldn't reject her request, so I accepted

Even though I was working with the revision, my mind was completely floating to what I just heard. Was it true? But if that was true, we still couldn't, right?

A week had past, and I was so hooked up with my work that I had no time nor chance to see Kaki. Well, now, we would be having a meeting

Matsuoda-san stood in front with Kamiya-san, uncle, and Suzumura-san. Kaki and Nobu-kun, and even the members of Trignal were here. I finally met Irino-san and Iwata-san too. Yoshino-san and Namikawa-san would be late

"So first, I wanted to tell you that Akiba resigned a week ago" Matsuoda-san started. I looked at Kaki, and he was looking away "She told me the reason, and it was personal, so don't mind that. But personally, I didn't like her reason why she accepted my request, and even the reason why she resigned" she looked at Kaki and sighed

"Well," Suzumura-san spoke "for now, let's focus on the upcoming Kirafes and the Trignal's concert, Hiroshi too, and his mini-albums"

And we discussed about their upcoming concerts, and I presented the idea for Kamiya-san's song

After the meeting, the Kiramune members were left inside the meeting room, just the members, but somehow, Kaki wasn't in his usual self. Was he feeling responsible for Akiba?

"Matsuoda-san" I called her and she was smiling at me

"Yes? By the way, the tempo are all great!"

"Thanks, actually, I want to tell you about something" as such, we talked for an hour

After talking to her, I went to the empty piano room and again sat there.

"Loner" Kaki entered the room with his unusual tone

"Am I? I am always alone in this room." I answered and got a pen and paper "Is there something you want to talk about? You are not again in your usual self" I looked at him and he put down his face on the piano "Kaki?"

"I talked to Matsuoda-san. She didn't get mad at me, but told me to be careful on my actions."

"It is not your fault though that Akiba quitted. It was her own reason" I responded while writing some random words

He immediately put his head up and looked at me "You know something"

"Do I? It is not actually your fault that you still like your ex-girlfriend." I told him and I had a glimpsed on him. His eyes was so wide and his jaw was wide open

"You?! Really?! You found out, huh?" he chuckled but he was trying to stay on his composure

"Kaki, don't be surprised" I told him, but the next thing happened was when I felt his lips on mine. His lips was on top on mine for like a minute, until he bit my lower lip "What's the bit for?" I asked angrily but I could feel the boil on my body. My face turned completely red, and this stupid Kaki was with his goofy smile

"Then that's answered everything. We still have mutual feelings" he grinned and then hugged me "I really regret on what I did, but I really, really do love you (F/N)! This is destiny, you know! I actually told Matsuoda-san about you, and she just smiled and sighed. And told me to tell my agency"

"Stupid Kaki! I was the one who told Matsuoda-san not to get mad at you" I said in low voice, but I hugged him back and tighten my hugged. I couldn't control but tears ran down on my cheeks and stuttering I told him "I love you too, stupid!"
