I grunted as I stared down at my cellphone. It was going off for the fifth time in the past hour. I thought the first time was just an alarm, but then it went off again...
And again...
And again...
Swiping it off of the nightstand, I glared at the screen.
Two missed calls, three unopened messages. All from...
Takahashi.
Oh don't tell me she's late for something.
"Good Morning Aries."
Her voice startled me out of my groggy daze, and I jumped back a moment, staring. She stared right back, her eyes calm(er than usual) and her hands rested on her lap.
She was sitting on my couch.
What gave her the right?!
"Aquarius!" I shouted angrily, shooting eye daggers in her direction
OSHIT! AICHAN'S AN ALIEN TOO???
"How many times have I told you NOT to intrude into my home? You never know who's going to be in here!"
"... Like Ishikawa?"
I paused.
Uh-oh.
"How did you find out about that?"
"It's not like she's the most secretive ever. She's actually very easy to get things out of if she hasn't been told to keep something a secret in the first place. Like all those nights you've spent with her."
Eek.
"Aquarius..."
"What? I haven't said anything to anyone else, don't worry Aries. Not even Pisces knows."
I let out a sigh. If Pisces found out, I'd be dead.
OMGASS THERE ARE MORE OF THEM???
"You have to tell her soon."
I stared.
"Soon? How soon?"
"By the next full moo-"
"I swear to god, if you finish that sentence with a rhyme, I'll make sure Marippe makes the rest of your life a living hell..."
Aichan's telling Yossi she has to break up with Rika?
And MARI's one of them!!!
"... You know what I mean though. We don't have much time, and you're the one she's closest too."
This was true. Not even Cancer was that close to Mitsui, and she was close to EVERYONE. Mitsui was just weird like that.
Oh, she's saying Yossi has to tell Aika (which makes sense she was all curious and stuff about Yossi's "oddities" earlier in the story). But jeez is there one alien for each sign of the zodiac?
Wait, Cancer is close to everyone?
...
Risa?
"You don't want to lose her like you lost Libra."
"Stop putting words in my mouth!"
"Defensive today, aren't we?"
Yossi lost Libra?
...
Wait, who was Libra?
"I'm not going to lose Mitsui, you understand me?!"
Aquarius grinned.
"I'd hope not. It's your life that's on the line Aries. This is your last chance... and Pisces isn't going to take no for an answer... from you, or her."
Wait a sec, this makes it sound like Yossi's supposed to be protecting Aika. Specifically it sort of sounds like she has to protect her from Pisces is. [bgcolor=#000000]
My guess is Pisces is Miki.[/bgcolor]
"I'll make sure Tsunku's aware of our plans... so he can adjust accordingly. Otherwise, the rest is up to you."
Okay, so is Tsunku an alien too, or is he just collaborating with them?
She was gone.
Grunting once more, I went over and opened the door.
Mitsui smiled right back at me.
This was going to be a long day.
