“so I’ll be riding the next train…” smiled Nino as they were at the train station waiting for the next train to come

“I wish you could stay a bit longer here…” pouted Yuki as you can see in her eyes that she was sad

“don’t worry Yuki-chan, I’ll visit you some other time…I promise…” said Nino while patting Yuki’s head

“we had fun with your company…arigatou…” said Kota

“me too…I do have fun with all of you…ok, so you boys, take good care of your girlfriends ok…?don’t hurt them and don’t make them cry…and as for the two of you Rein-chan, Kei-kun…I know that the two of you were cat and dog but you’re a couple now so might as well lessen fighting with each other…” said Nino

“we won’t hurt our girlfriends…that’s a promise…” said Yuto

“yeah…and about Kei-kun and Rein-chan, I think they won’t be able to do what you said Nino-kun…” laughed Ryosuke

“I’m not hurting my precious Rein-chan…well, I guess we get used with the fight that we usually do…” laughed Kei as he placed his arm on Rein’s shoulders

“yeah, that’s right…it’s just normal for the two of us to fight so no need to worry…” winked Rein

“that’s their trademark Nino-kun…” laughed Mikan which earned a nod from their friends

“ok…ok…I guess that can’t be helped ne…and Keito-kun, please take good care of Yuki-chan…” said Nino as he looked at Keito

“Nino-kun…why are you saying that to this guy…?! I can take care of myself and—“ Yuki was interrupted

“don’t worry Nino-kun, I’ll take care of Yuki-chan…she’s in good hands…and I’ll not let her to be hurt again…” said Keito as he place his arm on Yuki’s shoulders

“hey…! Stop talking non sense and would you take your hand off me…?” hissed Yuki

“I know I can trust Yuki-chan into you Keito-kun…” smiled Nino then the next train arrived

“so, I must be going now…I’ll visit you some other time…” smiled Nino while waving at his friends

“so he already left…I’ll miss his company…” said Mikan

“yeah, we will all miss the big brother in our group…” sighed Yuto

“ok, since it’s still early to go home, I think we should go grab something to eat…what do you think…?” suggested Satomi as her eyes sparkles whenever she’s talking about foods…:D

“now that you mentioned foods, I think I just heard my stomach grumble and asking for food so I’m in…” laughed Rein that earn nods form her friends

“now when will Nino-kun come back again…?” sighed Yuki as they were walking out the station

“why are you missing him when you got me by your side…” winked Keito which made Yuki’s heart skipped a beat…she missed seeing Keito looking like that

“and what if I got you by my side…?all I need is Nino-kun…” said Yuki while turning her gaze away from Keito

“I knew the one that you’re missing was me…” laughed Keito

“whatever…don’t be too full of yourself…”’ said Yuki as she stick her tongue out and teased Keito

The next day, Yuki happily left their house and walked her way to school…

“ohayo my princess…” said Keito as he popped out from the post and made Yuki jumped from where she was standing

“what are you doing here and would you stop calling me princess…” hissed Yuki

“I’m here to accompany you to school…” said Keito as he gets Yuki’s bag

“I didn’t tell you to accompany me and would you give me back my bag…!” exclaimed Yuki as she tries to grab her bag from Keito

“you didn’t tell me to accompany you but this is my own decision…expect me to go with you to school and accompany you home starting today…got it…?” winked Keito then he grabbed Yuki’s hand and they started walking

As they reached their room…

“YUKI-CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN…!” exclaimed Rein as she dragged her friend near them

“nani…?” asked Yuki who looked surprised at the behavior of her friend

“tell us the truth…” said Haruka then all eyes were landed on Yuki

“what truth…?” asked Yuki

“are you and Keito-kun…” teased Mikan which earn a giggle from Rein and Haruka

“NOOOOOOOO…! I know what you’re thinking and what you’re thinking is wrong…!” exclaimed Yuki as she made an “X” mark in front of her face using her hands

“Yuki-chan, we knew that you’ve got hurt but isn’t it time for you to forgive Keito-kun and try to hear his side…?” said Satomi

“yeah, Mi-chan is right Yuki-chan…we knew that you missed him as much as he missed you…” said Haruka

“yeah…I do missed him…but I’m afraid to trust my heart with him like before…” said Yuki while looking at the window

“I think it’s time for you to clear things out…” said Satomi

“but I will say, I really do misses him and this sweet things that he’s doing for me…” smiled Yuki

“kyaaaaaaa~…! See, so don’t hold yourself and reconcile with him already…!” exclaimed Rein, Haruka and Mikan as they shake Yuki

“hey yamete…! It’s not that easy…” said Yuki while holding her head

“Yuki-chan, can we talk…?” asked Yuma as he grabbed Yuki’s arm

“oh, Yuma-kun…doue…?” asked Yuki

“it’s about my cousin..i know that the two of you haven’t reconcile yet and I guess I need to tell you the truth…you got it all wrong Yuki-chan, I think you didn’t heard the whole thing that he said towards you…he really said that he fell in love with you…that’s why he’s making these things just to get you back…” said Yuma

“Yuma-kun…I guess you’re really telling the truth…” said Yuki

“I’m glad you believed in me Yuki-chan…”smiled Yuma

“demo…I still need to know if he really is sure about his feelings for me…I don’t want him to take advantage on me just like what he did to me before…” said Yuki

“ikuzou…?” asked Keito as he waited by the gate for Yuki

“so you’re still here…” said Yuki

“of course…I told you I’ll going to wait for you and accompany you home right…?” said Keito then he get Yuki’s bag and they walked home together

“ok, so we’re here...” said Keito then he gave Yuki her bag and folder

“arigatou…” said Yuki as she get her bag and folder but suddenly, papers scattered all over the floor

“oh, gomen…what are these…?” asked Keito

“they’re my written report for Physics…” said Yuki

“oh…sou…you need help…?” asked Keito

“well, if you wanted to help then would you do my written report for me…?” said Yuki

“eh…?” asked Keito in wide eyes

“so you’re gonna do it right…? Arigatou…so here’s the papers and the infos…ganbatte…!” said Yuki then she went inside her house

“ok~ so I guess I have no choice but to do this…” laughed Keito as he headed home

Weeks had passed and Christmas Eve was almost approaching, you can feel the cold breeze and Christmas decorations can be seen from establishments…Keito kept on fetching Yuki at their house every morning and accompanying her home after class, he’s doing it rain or shine and their friends can see that…he also did sweet things at Yuki like giving her food, flowers and chocolates and even a teddy bear…

“ne Yuki-chan…” said Mikan as they were talking at Yuki’s bedroom

“nani…?” asked Yuki

“when will you forgive Keito-kun…?” asked Mikan

“yeah, he’s been courting you for like forever…! I think you should forgive him now besides, Christmas is approaching and Christmas is the season for forgiveness…” said Haruka

“oh…about that…” said Yuki

“don’t tell me you like torturing him…?” laughed Rein as she played with the plushie on Yuki’s bed

“EHHHHH…?of course not…!” defended Yuki

“then why aren’t you giving him your forgiveness…? I guess you’re being harsh on him…we can see that he ‘s doing everything to show how he truly loves you…” said Satomi

“yeah, just look at this kawaii blue teddy bear that he gave you…he really means that he love you…” said Mikan as she was playing with the teddy bear of Yuki

“hey…! Give me that…well, let’s just say I’m looking for the right time before I give him my forgiveness…” said Yuki while hugging the teddy bear

days had passed and it was Christmas Eve…everyone was looking forward about it and they have their own plans for Christmas Eve…

“hey…! Tomorrow is Christmas Eve…what are you planning to do…?” asked Yuto

“what if we celebrate Christmas together…?!” suggested Mikan earning nods form their friends

“that’s a great idea…! We could spend it at our place since my parents won’t be able to come this Christmas due to work…” said Kota

“so the place is settled, so everyone shall bring foods for us to share ok…?” said Satomi

“I’ll bring sweets…!” exclaimed Rein

“ok, so it’s settled…tomorrow at Kota-kun’s place ok…?” reassured Ryosuke earning nods from his friends

That night, Yuki received a text message from Keito…

Yuki-chan, meet me tomorrow at the park 6pm before we go at Kota-kun’s place…I’ll be waiting for you…

                                                                                                                                                                                -Keito

“now what is this guy up to…?” thought Yuki while reading the text

the next day, everyone was excited for their party at Kota’s place…each of them were preparing for what they would bring later…

“let’s make sure everything is set for our party later…” said Satomi as she helped Kota clean his place

“hai…I thought I’ll be celebrating my Christmas alone but I was wrong because I’ll be celebrating it with all of you…” smiled Kota

“now what shall we give Mi-chan and Kota-kun…?” asked Mikan as they were looking at different stalls at the shop

“I guess this one suits Mi-chan…!” exclaimed Yuto while pointing at something

“this one suits Haru-chan…!” exclaimed Mikan as she saw something which really suits Haruka

“ow, but I think this one suits you…” said Yuto while pointing at a necklace

“Ryo-kun, is the pasta ready…?” asked Haruka as she went near Ryosuke at the kitchen

“in a minute…” said Ryosuke as he works at the kitchen

“that must be done by now…it’s almost time…” said Haruka

“hey, would you mind helping me Haru-chan…?” pouted Ryosuke

“eh…? You know that I don’t have the passion in cooking…you can take care of the by your own…” laughed Haruka

“eh…? I think you should help me…” said Ryosuke

“don’t worry Ryo-kun, though I can’t help you cook, I’m here for moral support…” winked Haruka and by that, Ryosuke admit defeat

“ok, so we’re gonna buy chocolate cake…!” exclaimed Rein as they headed into a cake shop

“wow Rein-chan, you sure love cakes…” laughed Kei while seeing his girlfriend act that way

“of course…! They are my favorite…! Oh…! Look at this…! I wanna it some of this…!” said Rein while looking at the black forest cake

“hmmmm…it’s a bit early, I guess we could it some cake before going there…” smiled Kei

Yuki was thinking about Keito’s text to her last night because that was the last text she received from him since then…now she was all ready for the party but she first went at the park to meet Keito..she arrived there at exactly 6pm...

“hmmm….now where is that guy…?late eh…?” she uttered while looking left and right to check on Keito

Seconds, minutes then hours passed and no Keito was seen…

“7:30…? Ok…! That’s it Okamoto Keito…! I guess you’re not going to meet me here…!” exclaimed Yuki as she grumpily stood from the bench she was sitting

“this is the second time that you made me hope for you…!” she thought then she went away angrily
