Yay! Finally back to Lilly's POV:

It's been a week since my meeting with Shiroi, an elegant young lady which was a childhood friend of En's. And in that week, I have been practicing a song, named Orion.

No one is expecting it, except En. He knows, since he's supposed to be like my accompanist.

There are two rounds, and the first round is practiced for a week, the other for only a day. I haven't decided my second song, but I know it could be good.

As En and I went in the crowded auditorium, Aqua's eyes were trying to find someone. She found me, and waved. So, she was trying to find me?

She told me to use a proper dress, not my school uniform, and yes, I forgot about dress codes. I didn't even realize that En was using a tuxedo!

Luckily, she brought a dress, a blue skirt lengthed dress with stars in the bottom. And a pair of shoes with heels. It's blue as midnight.

Quite nice. As I finished changing in the washroom, I noticed that the competition was starting. I ran to back stage to find someone call my name, "Lilly Fiske, you're coming on!"

I took deep breaths, and with that, I found myself on the stage.

 The disgusting looks on people's faces came, and I ignored it. I closed my eyes.

 The music went on, I took the microphone, and held it in my palms, tightly. And I started to sing.

 anata no yubi ga sono mune ga sono hitomi ga 

mabushikute sukoshi memai ga suru yoru mo aru
sore wa fui ni ochite kite amari nimo atatakakute
nomikonda nanairo no hoshi
hajikeru hibana mitai ni gyutto boku o komaraseta
sore de mada aruite yukeru koto osowattanda 

 I could feel my voice stuttering. I just continued.

 kamisama douka koe o kikasete 

hon no chotto de ii kara
mou nido to hanarenai you ni
anata to futari ano seiza no you ni
musunde hoshikute 

I see Aqua, one of the judges, cheering quietly. I smile slightly.

And you know the rest, I feel like the song was great. Then, silence came. I see Aqua clapping, then others started to clapped too. I smile and bowed.

 "Thank you, everyone." And with that, I went backstage.

 "That was a wonderful performance!" A boy's voice said. I looked behind me, oh! Sano!

 "Thank you, Sano. How are you today?"

 "Great, I hope you will pass the competition."

 "Are one of the judges?"

 "Yes."

 "Oh, I see." I look back, and see En waving me to come over, so I tell him, "I need to go, En's calling, I hope you have great day! Bye Sano!"

 I ran to En, "What is it?"

 He pointed towards the screen on the wall. I'm going to 2nd place!

A few minutes have passed, and it was En's competition now. He joined a sword competition. Fun!

 His techniques led him to victory.

 "That was awesome senpai!" a student exclaimed.

 I could see that he was surrounded by a group of girls so I just left him alone, I could see that aura of him glaring at me, I chuckled softly but went away anyway.

 I bought some juice from a vending machine, like a typical 'Earth' student from Japan. 

 And what do you know?

 "We meet again East."
