All gathered in practice room, and they started to play.
Kyo was having a hard time because he was going to bed really late and waking up really early... his stupid neighbours would start a whole amount of noise right at 7 am and it was impossible for him to sleep.
The practice was ok, he was trying his best although he wasn't in his best.
Toshiya and Die glanced a few times at him, he knew he was being watched but he wouldn't say anything... why bother? They weren't doing anything wrong.

"I think I should change this part of the music..." - Shinya said a bit undecided.

"And what do you want to do about it?" - Kaoru asked.

"Hm... I don't really know... maybe Die could change this part here to a lower sound I guess."

"Like this?" - Die played like Shinya said.

"Yes." - Shinya answered.

"Lets try it then." - Kaoru said.

And there they were, making new changes to the song while Kyo was dozzing off on the black maple.
Although, at a certain time, he was needed so he had to wake up.
Toshiya couldn't stop wondering what the hell was going on with Kyo... he knew something was wrong, and he knew Kyo wouldn't say what was it.

"So, it stays like it was before?" - Die asked Shinya.

"Yeah, it sounds better than if it was lower." - Shinya answered.

"Ok then... lets call it an end. We are finished for today." - Kaoru said - "Kyo, could you stay a little longer? I need to talk to you."

"Oh..." - Kyo felt himself become embarrassed - " Ok, sure." - He sat on the maple.

Toshiya went to Kyo and spoke very low:

"Is everything ok Kyo?"

"Yes, yes... I'm just a bit dizzy."

"Ok, just get yourself better, ok?"

"Sure, go on. I'll be fine."

The other members left and Kaoru and Kyo remained in the room. Kaoru was sitting on the sound table and then he called Kyo:

"Ok, Kyo, could you get in the cabinet? I need you to sing this part here." - Kaoru handed the papers to Kyo, who entered in the singer cabinet - "Ok, start."

Kyo started to sing the requested part, times and times again until Kaoru said he could take a break. But then, he restarted and sung again and again. Kaoru called a break again. Kyo got out the cabinet and Kaoru stood up to get some other papers. He was standing there reading the papers when Kyo reached from behind him and pulled at his arm sleeve:

"Kaoru?..."

"Wait just a sec Kyo."

Kyo pulled again, feeling even worse than before... his brain was in a whirlwind:

"K-Kaoru?...."

"What Kyo?" - Kaoru said, still reading the papers and not even looking back to Kyo.

"I don't feel so good." - Kyo said sickily.

"I know you want to go home, but you still need to sing another thing, ok?"

Kyo walked stumbling to the maple and sat there, dizzier than ever.

Kaoru made Kyo sing again. He entered the cabinet, eyes half opened and grabbing the mic with both hands to steady himself.
Kaoru started to notice Kyo's voice fading away, and then he looked up just in time to see Kyo closing his eyes and fainting.

"Kyo? Kyo? What's wrong now???" Kaoru shook him on the maple.

"Gomen, I just guess it was my blood pressure again. Bring me some sugar or salt and I'll be fine."

Kaoru did as told and gave Kyo three little packs of sugar. Then he helped him to his car and took him home:

"Are you sure you'll be ok?" - Kaoru asked.

"Sure I will. Thanks. See you tomorrow." - Kyo thanked.

Another missed chance to tell Kaoru how he felt... but then again, he wouldn't be strong enough to tell him.
He went to his bedroom and fell on his bed to sleep a little.
Some minutes went by and he woke up with his mobile ringing. A message.
He opened the message and read it:

"I was thinking if we could have some time alone. I think we should talk more and see if we can have more than a friendship. Sorry if my request is a bit out of order."

Kyo was stunned. Who could have possibly sent him that message? He pressed the 'down' button and read the name: Kaoru.
His heart started to race in his chest, he ran to his bed and covered himself head to toe with the sheets. His head going around.
