Dream Star 133 Letting Go Of Your Hand 2

Outside the bar.

He immediately spotted her, she stood out after all with that blue hair. Or rather crouching down like that would make anyone stand out. Kiryu rushed over.

"Kiryu?" She muttered. He placed his hand on the girl's forehead and felt a burning sensation in his palm.

"Ah geez, you're so careless..." he lectured.

Lila extended her arms out, "Piggyback."

....

Kiryu is speechless but placed Lila on his back as he walked back towards the direction of the Teras.h.i.+ma family vacation home. As one would expect of June, it was slightly cold. He should have wrapped his jacket around her. From the girl's clothing, he could tell she must have rushed of no sooner than him.

His thoughts broke off as he heard soft laughter escape the girls' lips. "You know, you really are stupid my Lila."

"Are you bullying me again?"

"Yes, maybe I ought to."

"Did you talk with Rosalichan?" Lila asked.

"I almost choked her. But she looked like she was enjoying it, so I stopped."

"I see..."

"Lila, don't listen to Rosalia. I feel nothing for Selia."

"..You use her first name?"

"If you don't like it, I won't." Besides, it's not like he used it because they got close or he became fond of her. It's because of the of the la initials in her name that resembled Lila's. Well, it's too embarra.s.sing for him to admit that out loud.

"When Rosalichan told me that, for the first time I felt terrified. Afraid that I'd lose you. And then I understood. I may like Harukkun, but it will only ever be like. I'll only ever be able to love you. But after this week pa.s.ses by, we still have to break up right?"

"Lila."

"I understand, I've been selfish this whole time. Last year Ryunosuke told me straight up. That I ought to choose, 'what would you do if Kiryu disliked this situation?' For the first time, I understood, ah. I've been selfish. Truthfully Kiryu, you don't want me to be with Haruka right?" Lila asked.

Kiryu nodded, his grip on her hand tightened, "Yeah."

"But, you still lead me to him?"

"Because like the old me. He needs you."

"Does the present Kiryu not need me?"

"That's not it, I need you more than ever. But Karas.h.i.+ma is a wreck, he needs someone to save him. Your love gave me the strength I needed to get this far, and I'm able to stand up on my own feet, even if we're far apart from each other."

"Yes, the same goes for me. Without you, I wouldn't have gotten this far either. The only reason I'm able to love others is because of you." Lila trailed off, "Can you put me down for a second Kiryu?"

...

He was hesitant but nodded. The moment he did though, the girl was about to hit the ground. But he caught her.

"My Kiryu, you're so warm... I'm so comfortable."

"Lila.."

"It's okay to cry Kiryu, but I don't like you crying. It hurts me."

"Lila, Lila..."

He felt her gently caress his cheeks, "I love you, I love you and I always will. Even if I end up dating Haruka, remember Kiryu. Where my heart lays, it's with you."

"I understand Lila.."

"Thank you, your so kind.."

Following morning, training camp building, room 105.

Haruka exhaled deeply, "What on earth is that?!" He murmured. His gaze darted towards the scene of Lila clinging to Kiryu's arm, as they took a stroll.

Mikami chuckled, "I see a lovey-dovey couple having a nice walk together, right Jaehee?"

The grey hair girl walked over to the window and whistled, "Look at them go. Though they can't walk in the areas where the trainees can see them…"

"..."

What's with this sudden change? Weren't they still in somewhat awkward terms for a while? Haruka figured, that Lila was getting suspicious about Austin Kiryu's relations.h.i.+p with Selia. If that misunderstanding continued, then he could have used that opportunity. But now, he sighed again. How annoying.

His thoughts broke off when he spotted a cloaked figure in the distance. He frowned and stood up.

"Senpai?"

"Getting cigarettes."

He doesn't say anymore and walked away. It didn't take him long to arrive, "Miyazawa." he called out.

"Oh, how sharp?"

"What do you want?" he said with a deep sigh.

The girl clung to his arm, "Take me to your room?"

.

.

The room he brought her, is the original room they provided him. It's not possible for there to be a room shortage, and if there was, they wouldn't suggest to put him with a partic.i.p.ant. "Are you the one stirring up those rumors?" Haruka asked up front.

"How sharp."

"Not really." It wouldn't take anyone who knew long to come up with that conclusion, "What's the point? Nothing has happened between them."

Rosalia removed his s.h.i.+rt, rather tore it and he does the same with her, as he laid down and she climbed on top of him.

"Oh? But something happened, the two have already done it."

Huh?

"Look." Rosalia took out her phone and played a video. Haruka could make out a familiar figure which belonged to Selia and a man with silver hair on top of her. The two heavily having s.e.x.

His eyes go wide. Ah...

"So things will go your way soon..." she muttered as she sucked his neck.

"Did you drug them? Both?"

Rosalia laughed, "How smart ~"

As Haruka a.n.a.lyzed the video he frowned. He didn't say it out loud but, the guy in the video wasn't Austin Kiryu. At first, glance that's what it would look like. He sighed, this woman really wants to tear the two apart from each other. That ought to be good for him, and yet. He felt he ought to say something. If the video ends up in her hands. He should clarify it with Lila.

The girl on top of him took his silence as an agreement to not say a word. This woman is naïve, did she really come here thinking she would win him over so easily?

Hill, 9:30 am

Thump.

Thump.

Since that day, Selia could not look Kiryu-san in the eye properly. It happened on the second day she moved in. She returned from having a long s.h.i.+ft..and...

Kiryu-kun touched her.

...

It felt like there was something wrong with him, but Selia didn't have time to think it through when he threw her on the ground and kissed her heavily. She could remember it very well At first she felt afraid, his touches felt foreign, unlike when he usual pats her hair. Since it was dark, she couldn't see him either, so she was terrified. But, then she caught a glimpse of his silver hair and relaxed.

Her thoughts broke off when she spotted silver hair on the hilltop. Selia was about to call out to him when she realized he wasn't alone. Beside him was none other than Teras.h.i.+ma Lila, the girl had just finished singing.

"My Kiryu, how was it? If it was good, my praise and kiss please!"

At that comment, Kiryu-kun wrapped his arms around the girl and did as she asked.

"Nnghhh-"

"Of course, it's good. My Lila..." He murmured against their lips.

Teras.h.i.+ma Lila laughed softly, "Um, you gave the kiss before the praise..."

Does this girl know that Kiryu-kun already slept with her? While it was only that one day, he already slept with her. Because all that stuff happened, and he went into a mini coma, Selia didn't get a chance to ask him... He didn't bring it up once he woke up too.

Why does her heart feel so unsettled like this?

She really must like Kiryu-kun. As she recalled her conversation with Rosalichan, Selia sighed. She didn't like Teras.h.i.+ma Lila from the beginning, and now it really appears like she has a legit excuse for it.
