'Oh god, I look terrible.' Luna thought as she washed her face. "A bit better." Luna said. She went downstairs to find Aki reading a book while drinking something. "Good afternoon, Aki." Luna said as she sat beside Aki getting the TV remote and opening to see whats on it. "Good morning sleepy head, how was your sleep?" Aki asked as she finally looked up from her book to find Luna staring at her. "It was okay, you?" Luna asked as Aki said, "Luna are you sure? I remember seeing you crying in your sleep, are you dreaming of him again?" Aki asked as Luna shook her head. "No, it was a dream of my childhood friend, I'm sorry if I had you worried, Aki." She said as she hugged Aki. Aki let go of the book she was reading and hugged her back. "Are you hungry?" Aki questioned as Luna shook her head once again.

"Aki.. I've been thinking," Luna paused as she tried to get confidence to continue. "Would you like to talk to my parents? They have something to tell you." Aki nodded and said, "Sure, when?" 

"My parents said anytime. Now?" Luna asked as Aki nodded. "Okay then, I'll call them now." Luna said as she was calling her parents. "Hey dad. Aki's with me, do you want to speak to her?" Luna handed the phone and heard her father's voice through the phone. "Hello, Aki. Nice to meet you, again. You said that your parents are trying to sabatoge us, right?" 

"Yes, they even sent me to kill her, if you remember. I said I'd do it but I faked her death. But the thing is that my father installed cameras in my house and I can't go there with Luna anymore. Quite unfortunate, but what can I do?" Aki said.

"Okay, we're going to be enrolling you into schools and they have dorms. You both will be roomates but there'll be someone with you both, you start in a few days. Are you ready to protect Luna?" "Yes. We're both assassins though, why do I need to protect her if she knows how to protect herself?" She asked as he stayed silent for a while. "Because I trust you. You did so much to our daughter that Lucas never even thought of. Thank you, Aki. I'm trusting you with my daughter's love and safety. And for grandchildren if that's even possible." He joked as Aki chuckled. "You can count on me, you won't be disappointed." She said. "I know. Now, I have an important business meeting with your father, how unfortunate. But I have to go, goodbye Aki. Be careful of your father's spys." He bid goodbye as Aki said, "Bye."

"Here you go, Luna." Aki handed Luna her phone. "Thanks. Now, I feel a bit hungry what do we have for lunch?" Luna asked shyly. "I didn't make lunch, wanna go buy out?" Aki said as she got her keys. 

"Yeah, but what happened to staying inside? Did your father finally explode or something?" Luna asked sarcastically as Aki laughed. "No. Not yet at least.." She said.

"Oh and by the way, father said we're going back to my childhood town today, we have some stuff there that we need to take care, father says that there's some of our enemies there and we need to eliminate them, is that okay?" Luna asked as Aki nodded. "Yeah sure, lets go get food and head to the town." 

They got into the car and Aki started driving. The drive was pretty silent, but music helped relieve some tension. Aki was thinking about what to do, how to get rid of those feelings that Luna gave her. 

'Damn you, Luna. I wish these feelings for you would stop. I want my feelings to go, I want to do friendly things with you without turning red or thinking of us doing it as a couple. But I can't help it. Oh, how I wish you were mine. I want you and only you. If it's not you I don't want them. I love you, Luna. It's taken me years to understand my feelings, but now I'm sure. After all these years of denial and forcing myself to hate you, I thought I'd moved on from you after I moved, but then I looked into your eyes and at that moment I knew that I didn't. Your eyes had pulled me into a never ending maze and I still can't seem to exit it. Your eyes are something I adore about you, even though I adore everything about you. What do you adore about me, Luna? When I'm with you I feel alright, when I'm with you all these people I feel like it's just us two. I love you. My heart is crying out for you. I'll always love you, even if doing so means cutting the link that connects today to tomorrow, I'd do it in a heartbeat.' Aki thought as Luna was also thinking.

'Aki you make it so obvious that you like me. But I'm afraid I can't reciprocate your feelings. I admit that I have loved you and I still probably do, I fear that I'm not good enough for you. I always and up hurting people around me, I even ended up hurting myself. My love, my Aki, my everything. I love you, but I'm scared. I'm scared that you're going to leave me one day, I'm scared that you're gonna turn into someone I don't remember meeting. I'm scared of so many things. But.. I hope you're an exception. I still do have feelings for James but they're fading out. Who knows if we'll see him today. Why is it so hard to choose who to love? Why is it hard to know who'll change while we're dating and switch up. I'm scared, I really am, these endless possibilities rushing through my mind are haunting me. I really hated you at first. But what if my hate covered the love I first experienced? We're old childhood friends until we drifted away.'
