Yu's POV:
I can barely concentrate on the lecture. The show from last night just keeps running around my mind on a loop.
Yosuke sounded so... happy about it.
I mean, why wouldn't he? He likes the girl. He has a... thing for her.
...He even asked me if I felt something when I saw her show. How was I supposed to explain that it didn't make me feel a special type of way at all?
Surely he knows, right...? He knows that I like him... Doesn't he?
I hate the way his question made me feel. It made me feel all clammy and tense.
Kanji's show made me feel more things than Rise-san's did.
I guess that's the difference between me and him.
"Narukami," Mr. Hosoi snaps. "You were listening, weren't you?"
"Y-yes, sir..."
"Then, tell me. How did Soseki Natsume translate the English phrase 'I love you' into Japanese?"
"I... I don't..." I mumble, shaking my head.
"Yu," Yosuke whispers. "It's something like, uh... 'I could die'."
"I heard that, Hanamura," Hosoi sighs. "And, anyways, you're wrong."
"The moon is beautiful, isn't it?" I whisper, glancing over to Yosuke.
"Correct, Narukami."

Yosuke's POV:
"She's not there." Yukiko's face is as pale as ever as she reaches us back at the food court. "I talked to her grandmother, and she said that Rise-chan hadn't been home since yesterday."
"...Does that mean...?" Kanji says quietly.
"She's inside the TV," Yu finishes.
"...A-are you sure?" I ask.
"Only one way to find out," Kanji mutters.
"...We're going in now, right?" I say, turning to Yu.
He nods, slowly. "Is that alright with everyone?"
Chie nods. "Yeah."
"...Yosuke?" He looks to me.
"Hm?"
"...Will you be okay?"
"Why wouldn't I be?" I snap at him accidentally, quickly backing up afterwards.
"You just... care about her," he shrugs, biting his lip. "A lot."
"He only likes her 'cause she's hot," Chie scoffs.
"Whatever," I groan. "I still wanna save her."
Yu gives me a sad smile before turning back to the others. "Alright. Let's do this."

Yu's POV:
"Teddie?" Yukiko asks.
"Teddie, what's wrong?" I frown.
He rolls around near the entrance with his head in his hands, weeping. "You were having fun and forgot all about me!"
"What?" Yosuke scoffs.
"A-aw, come on, Teddie..." Chie says softly, helping him to his feet. "We could never forget about you."

FanficKanji was just a decoy; Yu knew that. He also knew he had no chance with Yosuke. Even then, he couldn't let go. Because he didn't care what it took; he needed his partner more than anyone else. ~~~ cover credits - @CreamyGhost on twitter ~~~ Info: ...
