SOMETHING

I took the cell phone I had brought with me. I played the song No Matter What in front of Cloud. He then listened.

"It's like the tunes I play when I miss you, Ara."

"Hah? Is that true?!"

Cloud nodded.

"My intention is for us to sing together to accompany the dance. Are you ready?" I asked him.

"It doesn't seem difficult. How about Mr. Mozart. Have you talked to him about this?"

"E-em." I nodded. "I even had time to practice vocals with the band."

"Is that true?" Cloud couldn't believe it.

"Come on, Prince. Once in a while, we sing together," I said, spoiled.

"Fig?" Cloud looked surprised by my attitude.

I got up from the chair and sat on his lap. Cloud instantly froze when I ventured to do this.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and tossed his slicked-back hair. My chest was right in front of his face. Slowly I felt both of Cloud's hands wrapped around my stomach.
