To Remember You

Chapter 3
Sleep Talks

Rin's POV

I found myself looking up at a rotating ceiling fan native to the ceiling of the third floor game room. My head was on a pillow and someone was playing a video game on the television. I turned my head to the side and saw Len playing a video game. We were the only ones in the room and everyone else was obviously down in the pool. I watched Len's expression change at different time during the game. He played on his computer that was attached to the TV for a bigger screen. I turned on to my side and that alerted him of my consciousness.

"Good morning," he told me. "I found you collapsed on the floor, what happened?" He looked me straight in the eyes and I could feel heat rising to my face.

"Um, thanks," I said. "And uh, I don't really know what happened. I think I just fainted from fatigue or something." I watched the screen as he continued playing. "'Chapter four, Club Titiboo.' What kind of a name for a club is that?" Len chuckled and blushed deeper.

"I don't know, I just they were just being immature or something," he said. "Have you ever played this game before? Mother 3?" I shook my head and I watched as he took from as a little blonde boy on the screen traveling around with his dog. "Well, it's a really fun game. I've played this twice before."

"Really?" I asked. He nodded.

"This is the chapter where we find that Duster had lost his memory and was going under the name 'Lucky,'" Len said. I tucked in my legs a bit and watched him go through the club. I wonder what I would do if I lost my memory. I bet it'd be hard and the people around me would try to restore it. "Do you want to try, Rin?" I nodded and slid down on the floor next to him. "If you tap 'B' you can run." I did and I controlled the blonde boy in the game.

"What's his name?" I asked, leading the boy around.

"Lucas," Len answered.

"I heard Rin fainted!" Maou said, running into the gameroom. "Are you okay?" I nodded and gave him a smile. "Anyway, Neru told me to call you to her room if you were awake." I nodded and made my way to Neru's room. She was packing up her stuff into her suitcase and talking to someone on her phone. Wow, first time she actually used minutes on her phone.

"Neru?" I asked. "What's going on?"

"Mom wants us home," Neru said. "She doesn't want you to get hurt anymore." She handed me the phone and I listened to hear my mother's voice.

"Mom?" I asked.

"Rin! You are to pack up your things right now," she said. "I knew Tokyo wasn't good for you two! You're coming home right now. Summer's ending anyway and we have to get you settled in your dorms again."

"Um...okay..." I said. Actually, I wasn't okay with it. I felt something tug on my stomach, like it was a chain that didn't want me to leave Tokyo. I gave the phone back to Neru and left the room with the urge to scream. I shut the door gently behind me and gasped when I saw Miki in front of me. "Miki? What's wrong?" She looked at me with sad eyes.

"You're going back to Sapphiro?" she asked, quietly. I nodded and she took in a sharp breath. "Can you tell me about your school?" I looked at her questioningly. "Please?"

"It's a boarding school in Sapphiro," I explained. "Vocaloid Academy. Why do-?" She ran off and I just watched her fly down the stairs before going into my room. I rolled out my lugage and lifted it onto my bed. As I started packing up I had to stop for a minute to look at my laptop. I kept looking at it for a bit and an image flew through my head of Len sitting there, looking at it. I walked over to it and powered it on. The last place I've been to on it was Maou's blog, so I clicked on it.

Well it's official! Bunny doesn't remember Kagamine at all! Lucky me, I have another chance :) Also, she's going back to Sapphiro, meaning she leaveing that no good Kagamine Len here. Thank God, too! He was getting on my last nerve. What I mean is he's as cocky as hell. Anyway, I know Bunny's better off not remembering that guy. He's a complete danger to her health! Psh, crap, I think she's gonna wake up soon. Bye.

My eyes widened and my heart stopped when I read the post. I forgot about Len? When? I took up my laptop and walked to Maou's room. I had to get some answer about this. It's not possible to actually forget about someone...was it? And especially the part with "I have another chance." Was Len... someone important to me? I knocked on his door and entered. Maou turned towards me, apparently packing too.

"Oh hey Bunny, what's up?" he asked. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"I read your latest post on your blog," I told him. He stiffened a bit. "You said I forgot about Len. What did I forget? What do you mean by 'you have another chance'? I remember telling you that I just want to be friends with you." I looked him straight in the eyes.

"Well...uh...Len's your...uh," Maou said. "He's the reason you ended up in-"

"Rin!" Miki called, glomping on me from behind. "Guess what? I'm gonna go with you to your school! I just enrolled online!" I looked at her in surprise, but she just smiled.

"We're going too!" Tamako said, walking into the room with Jun trailing behind her. "Isn't that great? Oh! And I want to show you something!" Tamako grabbed my arm and yanked me straight out of the room.

Miki's POV

As soon as Tamako and Jun took Rin out of the room, I grabbed a near by pillow and hit Maou on the head. What an idiot! "Are you an idiot or something?" I screamed at him. "If you tell her that-"

"I'll have a better chance with Rin?" he asked with a smirk. I hit him with the pillow again and kept doing it until he was on the floor screaming for me to stop. "Jeez! What the hell is wrong with you?"

"You don't even know me," I hissed. "But if you tell Rin something like that, she'll probably try to remember it and her head will hurt." He glared at me and I really wanted to kick him. "I'm gonna go slow with her memory or she'll end up back in the hospital!"

"Geez, sorry," he said, rubbing his head. "But, it's not fair if she just back together with Len. He cheated on her remember?"

"That was after you told Meiko to make him drink!" I screamed, pushing him a bit. "Even I know Len's inner playgirl comes out when he isn't in his right mind!" I groaned, frustrated. "Why are you fighting for her like this? It's just so frustrating for me. I'm trying to help Rin regain her memories, but you're just-!" I screamed angry at nothing.

"Calm down, Miki," he said, getting up. "Geez. Len doesn't deserve Rin." I shoved him a bit father and he fell.

"You don't deserve her!" I snapped. "You had all that time in Sapphiro! You could have, but you missed your chance! Even you should know by now that it's too-" Tamako's high pitched shriek stopped the words flowing from my mouth. I would have ignored this, but when Tamako screamed, she screamed Rin's name. Maou and I yanked open the door to see a fainted Rin, a panicking Tamako, and no Jun. Len ran from the gameroom and looked like death was in front of his most important person. I'm afraid to ever say that again, because it might be true.

"What happened?" Len asked, picking Rin up. "Tamako, what happened?" Tamako flinched for a minute, but proceeded to tell us how she, Rin, and Jun listened in on my conversation with Maou. Tamako also said that Rin had headaches before she fainted and Len held her close. I watched Maou who had his hands in fists.

"Len, take her to the gameroom again," I told him, with a sigh. "Tamako, watch her and call us if she wakes up." They both started walking off until I called Len's name. "I need to talk to you in a minute." He nodded and they walked off. I turned back to Maou who just stared at the floor. "Now you see with your own eyes what happens when you unload so much on a person." I moved his face to look into my eyes. "I beg of you to leave them alone." I removed my hand and walked to the gameroom. Len jogged up to me and we went into the kitchen.

"So, what did you need to talk to me about?" he asked, getting a banana.

"I enrolled you into Rin's school," I told him. He spit out his banana and looked at me in surprise.

"What?" he asked. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"You and I both want Rin to remember you," I told him. "And summer's ending quickly. What better way to continue than following her to school?"

"Can't I just make her fall in love with me again?" I took an unpeeled banana and hit his head with it. "Ow!"

"You...no matter how long, no matter what happens...you'll always have that same cocky attitude, won't you?" I asked. He just smirked, so I sighed. "Just promise me something. Promise that you'll never betray Rin again. Because if she's hospitalized because of you again, I'll really kill you this time and then I see you in hell." He cringed, but nodded.

"I owe her more than ever," he said. "I think I need to save her life again." I hit him with the banana again. "Ow!"

"Shut up, you'll jinx it," I hissed. "Take it slow when you're trying to tell her things. After all, you are the reason this happened to her." I combed my hair with my hand. "All that pent up stress really takes it's toll on good people..."

"I know how to relieve stress..." I stomped on his foot and pushed him over, so he fell.

"You are such a fucking hypocrite!" I screamed. "You say that you hate your brothers and that you'd never be like them...liar! You're almost exactly like them! Pretty soon...you're going to lose her if you keep up this crap. This is why I hate Kagamines! You're all playgirls! That's why my older sister hates your dad!" Len looked at me in shock.

"I was just kidding!" he said. "Why do you take things so seriously?"

"Because!" I screamed. "Two of my best friends died by this simple thing and my other friend won't talk to anyone!" I made fists with my hands. "I don't want that to happen to you, Maou, or Rin." I walked out of the kitchen with the fear I was going to cry. Jun was playing the game Len left off and Tamako was watching Rin sleep.

"Hey, Miki?" Tamako called. I sat on the floor next to her.

"Yes?"

"Do you think we'll be able to get Rin's memory back?" Tamako asked. "Len's gonna be sad if we don't and I have a feeling Rin's not going to like it either..." I pulled her into a hug.

"I don't know." Rin shifted on the couch.

"Len..." she murmured. We all turned to look at her and Len entered the room as soon as he heard his name. "Len...why?" Rin's face looked sad as she slept. "I love you..." She shifted again and said nothing more. Len crouched down next to her side and gently kissed her, sighing after.

"I love you too..."

"Had this happen before?" I asked, whispering. Both Tamako and Len nodded. "Well, it's a start."
