It's been a week now since Honoka returned to all of us and became a school idol again. Everyone returned to their regular activities like before and aiming to become the top idol.
It's our lunchbreak and I don't really feel hungry now. I went to the animal shed at the side of our school just to look at the infamous alpaca's our school is taking care of. I saw someone is in the shed, feeding them. She's wearing our school PE uniform and a pair of glasses. It was Hanayo.
"Hey Hanayo! What are you doing?"
"Oh uh... Good afternoon senpai. I'm feeding the alpaca's r-right now" Hanayo replied in a soft voice
"Awesome! So you're a caretaker here?"
"Y-yes. I always feed them during lunchbreak and after our practice in the evening" Hanayo replied
"Do you mind if I help you? I have nothing to do right now anyway"
"It's okay, I'm almost done anyway" Hanayo refused
"That's too bad. Is there anything I can help you on?"
"W-well, I have to return the floor mats we used in our PE earlier in the storage room. It's over there" She pointed out the floor mats piled up together. I picked up the mats with my right arm and walked with Hanayo to the gym storage room
"This is a bit heavy. Okay, let's go!"
It's been a while since I talked to Hanayo. She's very shy to others and doesn't talk that much so I rarely speak to her. We chatted as we walk to the storage room at the back of the school. The room is filled with a lot of gym equipments mostly used in sports and PE activities. We carefully placed the mats on the floor.
"I guess that's all of them, lets go back now."
"Okay." Hanayo nodded
A loud sound caught our attention and when we turned around the door slammed and closed. The person behind it locked the door from the outside and ran away. I tried to open the door but it won't open.
"Damn it. It's locked! How are we going to get out of here?"
"Aaaaaah! Someone help us!" Hanayo screamed as she panicked
"It's locked from the outside. We have no choice but to wait for someone to open it. But the thing is, the class will start soon so it will take a while until we could get out of here."
"So... we won't be able to get out here until after class?" Hanayo asked nervously
"Seems like it..."
Hanayo took a seat at the corner and murmuring like there's no tomorrow.

Earlier.....
Rin went to our classroom looking for Kiba.
"Kiba-senpai, can I nyask you a favor?" Rin asked
"Go ahead and make it quick. The dark portal of darkness is about to close!" Kiba replied to her while doing a ridiculous pose
"You can keep that dark portal you talking about later nya! I need you to help me set up Kayochin and Ren-senpai for me!" Rin angrily pulled his arms
"Hold on a minute you little mortal! What are you talking about setting up?" Kiba replied as he pulled back his arm
"I accidentally read Kayochin's diary when I visited her house yesterday. I found out that he also likes Ren-senpai a lot so I thought that I'll help her get the courage to confess her feelings for him." Rin softly replied to him as she twiddle her fingers
"How could you do such a thing like reading someone's private book? It's clearly forbidden for someone to do you know?" Kiba replied to her raising his voice
"I know but like I said, it was an accident. But I also want to help my best friend to be true to her feelings, especially for senpai. So, are you going to help me or not?" Rin asked again
"Okay fine! I get it, I'll help you! I know he went to the animal shed just now" Kiba finally agreed to her
Kiba and Rin went to the animal shed and observed Ren as he watched Hanayo feeding the alpaca's.
"I'm starting to have doubts about this, can we go now?" Kiba asked
"You just agreed few minutes ago, there's no turning back now nya" Rin whispered
Ren and Hanayo picked up the floor mats that they will take to the storage room.
"Seems like they're both heading to the storage room now. What should we do?" Kiba asked
"I have an idea! We'll lock them in the storage room together nya!" Rin blinked up
"Well, that's nice" Kiba replied sarcastically
"Really?" Rin excitedly asked
"No" Kiba replied. "No it's not okay! What if we get caught because of this?"
"We won't get caught if we'll be careful anyway" Rin carefully sneaked behind them and waited for them to enter
They quickly closed the storage room and locked it so they won't be able to get out until someone open it from the outside. Rin and Kiba ran towards the alpaca shed to take a quick rest
"Phew... good thing we made it nya" Rin sighed with a relief
"Good grief. I swear next time you're going to plan another one of these, I'll never join you again" Kiba replied to Rin while trying to catch his breath
"Hehe, don't worry. If I get caught I'll make sure you'll get scolded too" Rin replied with a smug in her face
"Oh god why do I have to do this?" Kiba exhaled

"pleasehelpusweretrappedherewe mightnotbeabletogetoutherealiveIstillwanttoeatlatertonight" Hanayo kept murmuring on the corner
"Hanayo calm down, we're going to get out here I promise" I grabbed her shoulder to help her calm down. She looked at my eyes blushing, it was pretty awkward.
"I-I'm sorry"
"M-me too. Thanks, I feel calm right now" Hanayo replied with a relieve
Its been an hour and no one is still coming, and I feel kinda sleepy from waiting. I tried to close my eyes and I fell in deep sleep. Hanayo sat next to me and placed her head to my shoulder
"Senpai, from the start you've always been there to help us. Even I myself a less noticed member of µ's, you still cheer me up and give me courage to continue as a school idol with Honoka-chan and the others. I really admire you so much" Hanayo whispered and kissed my cheeks. She also fell asleep
**********
After School
I woke up and I heard Umi and the others outside trying to find us. I called them out and good thing they managed to open the storage room. Man I really thought I won't be able to get out there anymore.
"Geez thanks guys. Good thing you managed to find us"
"Why would you think we'll never look for you two? Specially you guys ditched school only to sleep here" Eli replied angrily
"Okay I'm sorry about that but someone pulled a prank on us while we're inside to return the equipment we used earlier"
"How terrible nya! They should get punished for that!" Rin responded
**********
Dear Diary,
I got locked on the school's storage room. It was terrible but I'm very happy that Ren-senpai is with me. No matter the situation, he gives me courage and calm me down everytime I feel nervous or scared. I also managed to express my feelings for him. But I guess that's all about it. He's already happy with Umi-chan and I won't bother their relationship and I'll root for them to stay strong.
