Rising Star, Part Three

"Holy SHIT!" Haruka practically bounces as we round the corner, far enough from the chaos that we can finally let loose. "Girl, where did THAT come from?"

I'm still tasting Miyuki's cherry chapstick.

[Tasty. Not bad, Prez. Not bad at all.]

"What can I say?" I shrug, checking my reflection in my phone. "She needed to shut up, and I gave her a solution. Besides, you saw how close she was? You ask me, she was hoping I'd do that." 

"Bitch, she was about to MELT!" Haruka fans herself dramatically. "Did you see her face? I swear I saw actual steam coming out of her ears!"

I glance back toward the courtyard. The crowd's still there, probably gossiping their asses off. And in the middle of it all, I can just make out Miyuki's figure, standing exactly where I left her.

I can basically see the buffering symbol over her head. 

[Still processing, huh?]
