Chapter 1: Nozomi x Nico
Chapter Text
Nozomi was in the Yazawas' living room, smiling softly as Nico brushed her sisters' hair. The two girls seemed delighted to have the same pigtails as Nico's.
“Come on girls, hurry up, we're going to be late.”
Nozomi stood up as well and watched the girls run to catch their bags. She felt a small hand catch her fingers and she looked down to see Kotarou who was holding her hand.
She felt a wave of emotions hit her and she couldn't help but smile. The fact that Nico was sharing her family's happiness with her was a wonderful present.
Chapter 2: Rin x Hanayo
Chapter Text
Rin saw every member of µ's as her best friend. They made her believe in herself again and they made her discover a wonderful world. Every day was incredible!
The girls seemed to think Hanayo was her only best friend though – but they were wrong! Rin had to admit that what she felt for Hanayo was different, after all she was the prettiest girl in the world, no one was as cute as she was.
But even if Hanayo was the absolute best, Rin loved everyone equally.
(And the way Nico facepalmed when she told her wouldn't change her mind.)
Chapter 3: Tsubasa x Honoka
Chapter Text
The raging desire to win was a feeling Tsubasa was used to. It had echoed in her ever since she founded A-RISE. She loved dancing, she loved singing, she loved competitions and more than that, she loved winning. She was proud of the shows they organised.
However, as she watched µ's performing, as she listened to Honoka's solo, Tsubasa suddenly understood they wouldn't win.
Honoka smiled to the crowd and Tsubasa's heart missed a beat. She could feel the same desire as when she was on stage – but this time, it was because of someone else, because of a girl.
Chapter 4: Eli x Maki
Chapter Text
When she saw Eli and Maki come into the restaurant, Nico gritted her teeth. Holding hands, the two women looked like models. Even during high school, they were popular and now that they were older, nothing had changed: many people were pursuing them.
Yet, they were only interested in each other. Maki was opening up to Eli and you could see Eli smile softly every time she was with her girlfriend. Everybody could see they were made for each other and when you looked at them, they truly looked liked goddesses.
Nico growled. They would almost give her a complex.
Chapter 5: Umi x Kotori
Chapter Text
Honoka and Kotori had a special bond. Umi knew that what her friends shared was way deeper than what she shared with them. She had accepted it and to be honest, it didn't bother her. After all, she just wanted her friends to be happy and Umi didn't mind being left out.
Yet, the emptiness she felt in her heart whenever she saw Kotori laugh made her feel guilty. She wished Kotori was as content with her as she was with Honoka. She wished she could make her laugh and blush.
But all she could do was observe from afar.
