Special thanks to: wolfieawsomeness and valkyrievampire888! Thank you for reviewing! :)
Luki POV:
I sat alone at our table, watching Mikuo dance with Kaiko, while Gumi and Rin cheered them on.
I groaned and sank down in my seat a little. I really wasn't in the mood to watch Kaiko grind her hips against Mikuo's. No thanks, I'll pass.
"Hey Luki, do you want to come dance with us?" Mikuo asked me when the song ended.
"No thanks, I'm good," I replied.
"Aww come on! It'll be fun!" he smiled, holding out his hand out to me. I sighed.
"Alright, but just for a little while," I said, taking his hand and following him to the dance floor.
"Hey guys, look who came to join us!" Mikuo gestured to me cheerfully. I waved at Kaiko, Gumi, and Rin. They smiled back and continued dancing.
Mikuo stood in front of me and started dancing. I smiled and started dancing too. When a slow song came on, Kaiko put her hands on Mikuo's shoulders and started to dance with him.
They look so happy together. I thought, watching them. I felt someone tap my shoulder and turned around to see Gumi.
"Wanna dance?" she asked, looking at her nails.
"Sure," I replied.
Gumi put her hands on my shoulders and I put mine on her waist.
I've slow danced before. When we were younger, Mikuo and I would sometimes try slow dancing with each other when we were bored, so we both know how.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Mikuo and Kaiko. Mikuo was holding Kaiko in his arms and she was resting her head on his chest. He looked down at her lovingly.
I want to be happy for him, I really do. I thought. But, I just can't. I want to be the one to hold Mikuo tightly. I want him to look at me with that loving expression. I want to be the one he loves.
Then Kaiko lifted her head up from Mikuo's chest and pressed her lips against his.
I want to be the one to kiss him.
I forced myself to look away from Mikuo and Kaiko and back to Gumi. She looked bored.
Finally, the song ended. I let go of Gumi and went back to the table. I didn't feel so good. I took a sip of my drink and tried to relax.
Mikuo came and sat down next to me.
"Hey," he said.
"Hello," I replied, not looking at him.
"Are you alright?" he asked. "You don't look so good."
"No, I don't feel well," I said, pulling my cell phone out of my pocket. "I'm going to ask Luka to pick me up."
"Alright, do you want me to walk you out?" Mikuo asked.
"No, that's fine, go have fun with Kaiko and her friends," I told him.
"You sure?" I could see the concern in his eyes. I nodded.
"Yeah, really, I'll be okay."
"Alright," he said, helping me up. "Take care of yourself. I'll text you later, okay?" he hugged me.
"Okay, thanks," I hugged him back and nuzzled my face in his hair.

"Hey, Luka?" I said, leaning against a streetlight outside of the club.
"Yes?" my sister replied.
"Can you pick me up?" I asked. "I don't feel so good, and I think I'm going to throw up."
"Okay, hold on, I'll be there in ten minutes," she told me. "Hang in there."
"Thanks," I said.
I closed my phone, put it back in my pocket , and waited for Luka to arrive.
Suddenly, my stomach started to hurt a lot. I ran to a nearby trashcan, bent over it, and hacked up my dinner.
"Ugh," I groaned, wiping my mouth with the sleeve of my jacket. I sank to the ground and continued waiting for Luka.
Finally, her car arrived. I stood up and got in.
"Hey, are you alright?" she asked, putting her hand on my forehead. "You don't have a fever."
"Just drive," I said.
"Okay."
When we got home, the first thing I did was brush my teeth. Afterwards, I went to my room, changed into an old t-shirt, and sweats, and laid down on my bed.
My phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and gazed at the screen. It was from Mikuo.
Hey are you ok? How are you feeling?
I hit reply and texted him back.
Yeah, I kinda threw up, but I'm feeling better now, thanks.
Yikes! I'm glad you're feeling better.
Thanks. :) I'm tired so I'm going to sleep now. Goodnight.
Oh, goodnight. Sleep well. :)
I smiled at his last message. He's so kind.
I closed my phone and put it on my bedside table.
Forcing the memory of Mikuo and Kaiko out of my mind for now, I fell asleep.
What did you think?
(Btw, I went to my first anime convention a few days ago. It was amazing! :D I cosplayed The Disciple from Homestuck. I'm hoping to go to next AX again next year. :3)
Please review. :3
