Work Text:
A classroom was filled with quietness while the teacher were discussing about the History of how Japanese took over the Filipinos. It was a boring session for the class, there were groaning, some of them were sleeping and some of them felt unbothered. The History Teacher didn't even care about it and didn't notice some of them, Although the teacher do get their attention by doing recitations. Students even try to listen and answer but fail to do so. Except for this student, who is a Lavender haired woman and wearing glasses.
Rumi R. Reyes, The Top student in her class and even the president of the student council.
The smartest student among her batch, and even other batches too. She was the president of the student council organization, She wasn't actually sign up for this but Celine, the principal of the school and her aunt, sign her up. She clearly didn't know if she really wanted this but she had no choice since it's Celine's decision. But her friends, Mira and Zoey are supportive to her. A lot of students even other batches and levels were facisinating how pretty she was and even how smart she was. It's funny that she gets most of the guys and girls than Mira, which made both of them being competitive about this.
However there used to be rumors from students that she's currently dating someone. Giving rumors like she could be dating a man or a woman, Rumi really never open about their orientationtion to anyone except for Mira and Zoey, their trustworthy friends since first day of her school. Mira and Zoey really knows Rumi is in a relationship with someone and they know that someone. The rumors may be still active in the present but it was rare for them to talk about it, especially to Rumi. Rumi would change the topic and even Mira and Zoey tried to defend her but Rumi wouldn't mind. Rumi never dare to tell the truth that she's dating someone but it was probably this someone isn't popular as her.
While Rumi was paying attention what the teacher saying, note-taking everything what he discusses until she heard a really loud steps, it sounds like someone is running until she saw Zoey running and looking behind. She was with someone while running? the window was open which makes Rumi can see clearly.
"Oy Mira! dalian mo!" Zoey yelled which gesture her to keep following her.
Rumi really knows these two are such troublemakers together. Until when Zoey dissappear and kept running, Mira appeared while running and panting in stop. Rumi may not know if they were at their break time or not which she forgot what was their schedule was.
"Teka lang Zoey!" Mira kept panting, catching her breathe
Napapagod kami ni Ly-!"
"GUYS TAKBO NAJAN YUNG PRINCIPAL SA LIKOD!"
Rumi recognized that voice until Mira started running quickly as they heard the principal was behind someone, they were with someone. they were behind them. Until they appear last.
They were running quickly until they saw a classroom that they recognize. It was Rumi's classroom. They took a quick glimpse while they run. Then they saw Rumi, looking at the window eyes surprised and even smile when she saw them.
Lyn D. Garcia, A little troublemaker in the school but somehow still manage to be a average student and keep cool.
Lyn waved at Rumi smiling, Even Rumi smiled and wave little ( just to avoid the history teacher calling her name ). Then without realization Lyn had to continue running because apparently they were chased by a principal, which is Rumi's aunt. Rumi even giggled about their situation. But wonder what did they do this time especially Mira and Zoey were with them.
Until Rumi saw her auntie, Celine, The principal of their school. When she saw her she immediately focused on her notebook and pretend she was studying. She quickly peak, she was chasing down Lyn and the others. Which gave her a awkward smile and gave a deep sigh after her aunt dissappeared, it sounds like she's half dissapointed.
"These idiots…I wonder what they did again this time"
It was lunch break for Rumi, Rumi clearly still doesn't recognize the schedule with their friends ( Huntrix have different schedules ) until she noticed Mira and Zoey, looking for someone which is Rumi. Rumi even waved at them just to notice her. Mira and Zoey managed to saw Rumi's gesture so they run towards her
Now they are sitting at a garden together, without someone. Which made Rumi confused.
"Hey um, Where's Lyn?" Rumi asked, Mira was lowkey confused but except for Zoey.
"Oh I think I remember they were at the principal" Zoey answered which made Rumi gave a deep sighed. Knowing what happened between them with Rumi's friends
"Let me guess… you guys decided to make a trick with Ma'am Celine?" Rumi guessed, which made Mira and Zoey laughed.
"Well… it's just…" Zoey tried to find a way to explain but it looks complicated to explain until Mira helped her out.
"Apparently, Zoey is kind of.. really stupid" Mira said, giving that look at her
"Hey ! I didn't know that will happened!" Zoey exclaimed.
"Eh You're supposed to be in the principal not Lyn!" Mira pointed which made Rumi surpised.
"Wait hold on, what you're saying is, Lyn didn't do anything?" Rumi said bewilderedly, which made Zoey sheepishly shy and Mira was calm and nodded.
"It wasn't my fault! and… I was lowkey scared of getting suspended…" Zoey pouted in a sad way which made Mira facepalms.
"You're just saying you have a lot of violation slips than Lyn and they have 2 violation slips which is… okay lang?" Mira honestly confessed, Rumi clearly didn't know Zoey has been going insane about this. Rumi gave a little facepalms but gave a little chuckled.
"You should be thankful that you elected me as a student council president because if I weren't a president, probably someone will report you" Rumi said which made Zoey and Mira relieved that their best friend is the student council president.
They recall that a former old SC president last year, they caught Mira and Zoey turning on a fire alarm with no emergency reason.
Suddenly while eating their lunches, Rumi felt her phone buzzed for a second, she pulled it out and noticed she received two messages, one is Lyn, and two is her student council groupchat, of course she picked her partner first. She open the message app and read the message that Lyn sent her. made her giggled and smiled

After sending that message and reacted their messages, Rumi fade her smile as she checked her Student council organization groupchat. skimmed the message and heart react for noted. Zoey and Mira saw that look that Rumi made.
"Let me guess, is it about you and-"
"Yeah yeah but I gotta go guys" Rumi sighed.
"May meeting ako at 1pm which is unexpected" Rumi informed them which Zoey thought she was in the mood to joke aorund.
"I'm so sorry but I'll make it up with you guys at uwian! Bye!" Rumi quickly moved and waved, making Mira and Zoey waved back. Now it's two of them.
"She's really busy with that organization." Zoey added.
"Yeah, really a workaholic student. Not even sure if she really has time for Lyn" Mira said which wondered that could be the reason why she looks sad.
"You know… I haven't seen them together" Zoey said which made Mira realized.
"No shit di niya sinasabi sa atin if they spend time together, especially Lyn" Mira said, giving that gesture pondering, Even Zoey mock her secretly.
"Hmmm I wonder~" Zoey teased which Mira noticed that Zoey mocked her gesture. She immediately patted her hardly making Zoey jumped and yelped.
"Hey!"
"Trying to tease me? I don't think so" Mira smirked and Zoey pouted.
"Speaking of Lyn, shouldn't they be here since lunch about to end-"
Zoey was about to end their sentence until both of them saw Lyn wondering around, looking for Mira and Zoey.
"Speak of the devil" Mira said while she waved at Lyn. Lyn quickly notice that and rush towards them. Now they were the three of them. Greeted them and Lyn immediately opened their lunchbox
"Rumi has to do work at the organization, she was with us earlier though." Zoey said, alongside Mira nodded.
"Ohh I see well, we were just texting earlier and I thought she was waiting for me" Lyn said immediately munching their lunch. which made Zoey and Mira looked at them.
"Do you guys have no time to date?" Mira asked which made Lyn caught their attention.
"Well, we were supposed to date this week or maybe this month but she's been busy with the organization keme keme" Lyn said which they know that they dating a workaholic president.
"I heard there's gonna be a seminar event happening, so that's why she's been busy." Lyn inform them which they both realized and forgotten about it.
"Shit, that! But does it involve with students?" Zoey asked, which made Lyn wondered.
"Pretty sure it's not, probably I heard it's for elementary students." Lyn reassured.
"No shit, your lucky to have Rumi because she's good with kids" Mira tried to joke around which made Lyn chuckled but made a little faded smile which Mira and Zoey didn't notice.
They look at the food they are eating. Giving a thought on how Rumi and them date or have time for each other, Both of them crave for each other. Their Hug, Their touch and even their quality time together. Zoey and Mira were talking together and then Zoey was using her phone and talk to Mira about this song called "Kahel ng Langit" by Maki. She yapped about it to Mira until Lyn realized what topic they were talking about.
"That song actually sounds good!" Lyn said which made Zoey and Mira nodded. Mira may heard a bit of this song but it's Zoey addiction afterall.
"Yeah and it reminds of me and Mira anyway"
I forgot, they are both dating… Lyn thought
"Yeah it's soo admiring especially it's Zoey afterall" Mira smirked at Zoey and Zoey laughed.
"Oh You!" Zoey giggled. Lyn was just looking at them. They were now both talking to each other.
Then their eyes went wide because they may have an idea on how to make it up to their date. Which probably need Zoey and Mira's help.
"Guys" Lyn called them out which made Zoey and Mira's attention to them.
"I think alam ko paano ko ibawi ang date namin ni Rumi" Lyn said which made Zoey and Mira glare at each other.
"How then?" Mira asked. All they did was smile.
"Well about that...I'll explain"
Weeks have passed which Rumi has been busy with the organization, Rumi still spends time with Mira and Zoey, Except Lyn wasn't around with them. Lyn, Rumi's partner, Really have a plan for Rumi which Mira and Zoey know about this. Here's their plan;
First step, will make Rumi half suspicious and sad, why because Lyn will be always unavailable to talk and hangout with Rumi. Even with Texting but Lyn would always give out excuses like they have something to do at their work, Even though Zoey, their classmate and batchmate, never really have anything to do in their section but discussion.
Second step, Behind First step, Lyn will probably try to convince Celine to let Rumi have a little free from their work by being absence from classes and organization. Even though they caused trouble (which it was supposed to be Zoey who caused the trouble ) to Celine but they made a deal between them, Making this date successful they plan and clear out their slips. Which made Lyn jump around in excitement. Celine gave a deep sighed thinking why the hell did Rumi date this person.
Probably last step, is Mira and Zoey will join to Lyn. They really wanted to experience this, even though this generation of couples or relationships never did this;
Harana, one of a filipino traditional to court one of their lover or maybe express their love for them.
Their plan was they will go to their house at night, bringing a microphone, extension and speaker. Zoey knows how to play drums while Mira a electric guitar. As well Lyn has been preparing a little design and sign board for her. This could be the reason why Lyn was unavailable for Rumi, they plan to do this and made a gift for them.
Lyn hired Mira and Zoey to help them making a sign board and gifts for her, they really did plan this for her. For both of them.
Now weeks have passed, It was Rumi's working day as a student council in a seminar for Elementary students. She had to do speeches and organize one of their members about the program. While during her free time during the program, she would usually send Lyn a message and send pic of her at the seminar, but no response. Which made Rumi worried and sad, She might have to confront Lyn about this. Then it was her next to speak on the stage, she would put away her phone away in her pocket. Celine was there the side of the technicals. Noticing her expression. Celine had to use her phone to inform someone, someone that Rumi knows and made a deal with.
My Niece's Future Spouse
Celine: Update, she's on the stage
[Celine sent a pic of Rumi speaking on the stage, demonstrating about the topic in the program but she looks serious and trying to avoid her emotions]
Celine: It seems she's feeling depressed.
My Niece's Future Spouse: Depressed?
My Niece's Future Spouse: Okay now that I think about it, I think I ignore her messages during the plan I was making.
Celine: So that's also your plan? making my niece sad?
My Niece's Future Spouse: No! It's just I lowkey wanted to surpised
My Niece's Future Spouse: Trust me Ma'am Celine, I'll make your adopted daughter happy.
My Niece's Future Spouse:
Celine: Did you just made Zoey to pic her like that?
My Niece's Future Spouse: Naw, that was a old pic from the clinic.
Celine was lowkey confused about what Lyn said but she decided to ignore it
My Niece's Future Spouse: But anyway, update us once it's finished, Me and Mira and Zoey are currently at my house
My Niece's Future Spouse: waiting and preparing one last thing.
[Weird Partner sent a pic of them with Mira, posing a thumbs up while Zoey, posing a peace sign.]
Celine: Can't wait to watch your performance anyway
Celine: You better make it good!
My Niece's Future Spouse: 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The conversation ended there. at the same time as Rumi's demonstration, Which made Rumi exited and position beside Celine. Rumi was frowning after she was speaking. Celine never realized that she set lyn's nickname to Niece's Future Spouse, Since both of them are openly dating to Celine anyway.
"Your speech was great, Rumi" Celine said politely. which made Rumi smiled a little
"Thanks Aunti- I mean, Ma'am Celine" Rumi stuttered. She almost forgot she's in school. Celine smiled and didn't dare to comment.
Minutes passed, They've been observing and keeping an eye on the seminar. Until Celine broke the silence.
"You look unhappy, is there something wrong?" Celine asked softly. Which made Rumi glance at Celine a bit.
"It's just… My partner is ignoring my texts" Rumi admitted it. Which Celine tried to hide the truth. Doing this for her Partner's Plan.
"I don't know Celine, They're not the type of person who would be mad at me for working right?" Rumi asked, she was trying to hide their distress.
"Then, Why both of you are still dating then?" Celine said, which made Rumi confused.
"They wouldn't leave you because you're a top student, Rumi, your partner is probably busy too like you" Celine comforted Rumi. Which made Rumi hesitate to think.
"Even though they don't have any organization to work but maybe school got them really busy" Celine said, Trying to cheer her niece up and not to messed up the plan.
"Yeah, maybe" Rumi said softly, which she didn't dare to talk to Celine a lot. Celine gave a little chuckled and Rumi noticed and got confused.
"What are you smiling about?" Rumi asked which Celine looked at patted Rumi at the back
"Rumi, I won't tell you but I'll fetch you home after this seminar isn't that okay?" Celine requested politely which made Rumi little suprised.
"Ma'am Celine, I appreciate it but-"
"If you think about your work or role for your organization, I gave an excuse about it and already inform it to your coordinator about this" Celine confirmed it which made Rumi confused.
"It's best you rest since you did all the work and study well for next month exams, I made dinner for us at our home anyway" Celine smiled. Rumi didn't expect Celine to be this nicer, it was a little rare for her to do this but she accept it.
"Well, Thanks Ma'am Celine" Rumi smiled and Celine once patted Rumi at the back gently.
"Anytime, Rumi" Celine smiled back
"And I do hope you love the 'dinner' later" Celine's accent a bit change when she mentioned "dinner" Rumi was supicous what dinner is this she's talking about. and even gave Celine a hum sounds which made her confused and look at her.
"You'll see once we're back home" Celine said, secretly smiled at Rumi again. Rumi just felt confused and suspicious until the seminar was about to end.
She wonder what was that dinner she's talking about.
Now it was 4pm, the seminar ended right there and Celine had to inform Rumi's org members that she will be excused which made all the members confirmed and decided to do the cleaning to them. While Rumi was confused and bid farewell to her members. Coordinator did inform Rumi and Celine that they will make a announcements at the groupchat and they take note of that.
Rumi went to a canteen just to buy herself a drink, which it was used from Celine's wallet. While Celine had to give a quick message to someone that the seminar ended and they're going back to their home. Thankfully after that message, she saw one of Rumi's Friends message to take note by sending a thumbs up. andby the time she saw that messages, She put her phone on her pocket and saw Rumi on her way to the car.
They both got in the car and exited out the school. Their school isn't almost far to their home which is 20kms away. Rumi is grateful she doesn't have to commute by tricycle or maybe a jeep or bus. It was silent at first until Rumi asked her about the dinner she's talking about. which made Celine response "You'll see when you arrive at home"
When they arrived at home. Celine parked the car inside the garage. There was nobody in their house or in front actually. Celine unlock the door and even turn on the lights. Rumi was welcome with her cat, Derpy purring and being clingy around Rumi's legs, while entering the back door of garage. She petted Derpy and gave a little attention by carrying her to her own room.
"I'm going to my room to change a bit Auntie Celine!" Rumi yelled just to let Celine know.
"Make sure to hurry a bit okay?" Celine said, preparing the food that Rumi's friends and her partner really loves. Rumi probably doesn't know that she was preparing that food.
While Rumi dissappear from the kitchen and went upstairs, Celine secretly pull out her phone and sent a text to someone.
The surprise is about to start
Rumi went upstairs slowly and open her room, turning on the lights as she gently dropped derpy and her stuff from school on the ground then flops on the bed. Tired and exhausted. She then pulled out her phone just plan on texting her partner. However she was bothered from the texts she sent, they've been ignoring her and being all dry messages sent to her. Even at school they told her that they couldn't spend time with her because of how busy they were. She was worried thinking if she did something wrong.
She type something but erase. She type again but erase. It bothers her. Then Derpy approach her in the bed. Purring and nuzzling on her head just to cheer her up.
"Derpyy, I know know" She chuckled, she holds Derpy gently and made her rest on her chest then petted her.
"I don't know what's up with Lyn… They haven't been messaging me like 2 days before the seminar I had to work on" Rumi said, ranting and talking to Derpy, Even though Derpy was just purring and relaxing on Rumi's breathing.
Rumi gave a deep sighed
"Do you think I did something wrong Derpy? Because I feel like there is or maybe not" Rumi asked, Derpy just react by moving and purring. She was enjoying Rumi gently massaging her on her top head. Rumi decided to gave a chuckled of how cute is Derpy.
"You know, this position, kind of reminds me of how Lyn resting on top of me and patting them on their back" Rumi said softly which made her smile fade and look at the ceiling, trying to recall what happened to them or did she do something wrong.
That's when she was about to grab her phone to message Lyn again however,
She got a message from Celine, Confused. She was downstairs why would she message her if she can go to her room. She didn't hesitate but check a glimpse of the message.
Until, she skimmed and went confused
Auntie Celine 💜
Celine: I hope you've prepared yourself because there will be a performance happening at our house, stay in your room and if they arrived, open the window will you? ;)
"Performance?" Rumi thought.
And then as well realized she hasn't changed, which it remind of Celine's message saying "Prepared yourself" So Rumi rush to the closet and immediately wear one of her favorite pajamas. A a pair of trains pajamas.
Finally, she was prepared and finished dressing. But Rumi was confused, About what Celine said to her, Performance at their house? It's weird that it's not christmas, but minutes passed. She heard a loud little feedback noises in front of their house, Something like a guitar connecting to a speaker and as well a microphone feedback.
"Hello hello mic check?" The microphone was clear and heard.
When Rumi heard that, she recognize that voice. that's when she immediately approach her window. slowly climb a square scructure that she can easily sit and watch the view. But she kneel down just to look down and slowly gave a quick peak opening the window.
She didn't expect this. Which made her surpised.
It was Lyn and Rumi's friends down there. They were chattering and giving signal if they are good to go.
Lyn then look up on the window that Rumi's room is. They smiled while they were holding a bass guitar and in infront of them is a microphone that is attached to a stand. Then Lyn looked a little down and saw Celine was there in the kitchen, waving at them which Lyn waved back to her. Rumi saw it, she realized that Celine, This…
This was Lyn's part of plan.
Lyn look again at Rumi's room. They know Rumi is there because of a peak window opened. They smiled.
"Hai my love" Lyn said, using the microphone to communicate and let Rumi hear their voice.
"Can you hear me loud and clear?" Lyn smiled.
Rumi immediately open the window, she show a bit of herself. smiling and looking at Lyn.
"Yes baby," Rumi answered, she was about to tear up and giving a light blush.
"I can hear you load and clear"
Lyn chuckled blushly and look at her once again
"Well, This song… lowkey reminds me of us" Lyn chuckled.
"I've been listening to this song while you were busy and as well I'm busy at school too" Lyn laughed which made Rumi gaze at them smiling.
"And this…This is for you to listen and let you know that I…" Lyn gave a deep breathe
"I love you, and You're my Orange Sky" Lyn confessed, it was coincidence that the sky is literal orange. Thankfully it wasn't raining. Three of them really said thank god weather forecast exist.
"This is for you, Rumi" Lyn smiled and gave the signal to Mira and Zoey.
Then the music starts. The rhythm were on beat and in sync with guitar. The truth behind this was Mira and Zoey had to practice this with Lyn 3 weeks. 3 weeks of them practicing this song. Mira being the backup vocalist while playing the electric guitar, Zoey was following the beat of the music, smiling and admiring Mira's backup vocalist. Lastly Lyn, singing their own heart to Rumi. There was a sign board behind them saying "To my Workaholic Girlfriend of Mine, I Miss You and I Love You" with a little cute hearts. She almost laugh when she saw that sign board behind them.
Minsan gusto kong magsumbong sa'yo
Kapag pagod na pagod na ako
Tama pa bang init ng yakap mo ang hinahanap ko
Minsan gusto kong tumawag sa'yo
Para lang marinig ko ang boses mo
Mali na ba kapag nakangiti ako
Hinahanap ko ang sa'yo
Rumi was listening, even admiring Lyn's voice. she listened the lyrics and the beats. She couldn't stop blushing and smiling, that's when she started videoing and taking pics of Lyn and even her friends doing harana infront of her.
Kahit hindi na kita nakikita ah
Kahit lumipas man ilang dekada ah
Kahit nagbago na hinahanap ng 'yong mga mata
Hanggang may kahel na langit maiisip kita
"Kahel na Langit" Lyn reminds her of a orange sky where they always spend time with Rumi every 5pm after school, comforting and being there for her. Which made Rumi realized.
Kamukha ng pagsibol ng araw
Mukha mong 'di na abot-tanaw (hindi na abot-tanaw)
Sa dami ng sukat ng kamay at daliring niyakap
Sa'yo lang 'di napapasma perpektong akma
And repeated chorus but with Mira being the backup vocalist, Rumi can hear Mira voice while Lyn singing.
Kahit hindi na kita nakikita ah (hindi kita mabitawan)
Kahit lumipas man ilang dekada ah (lumipas man ilang dekada)
Kahit nagbago na hinahanap ng 'yong mga mata
Hanggang may kahel na langit naiisip kita oh
Now it's Mira's turn but except her lines are "La-la-la-la la", But her voice was still pretty good, Zoey had to admire and gave a glance at Mira of how she sounds so good while she's playing the drums.
The music and rhythm was still there, Rumi can even hear Lyn's bass guitar, Mira's electric guitar and Zoey's drums.
Sa mga araw na wala akong kakampi
Sa tuwing may mga luha sa aking mga ngiti
Sa umpisa ng araw at bago mag-gabi
Hanggang may kahel na langit
Then there was Lyn's voice once again. Rumi felt the lyrics in her. Which made her go downstairs, she can still hear the lyrics and song. Celine heard Rumi going down and Rumi gently open the door, Now Rumi is outside, she slowly approached Lyn while they were singing. The song is about to end there.
At sa darating na panahong (la-la-la-la la)
Nasa ilalim na'ko ng lupa (la-la-la-la la)
At 'pag inuod na ang puso at utak (la-la-la-la la)
Lyn was about to end the song with the last line and lyrics. Rumi was there, in front of Lyn. Waiting for them to finish the last line of the song.
Ang makikita nila'y ikaw (la-la-la-la la)
Then finally how the guitars play slowly to end it. A perfect timing that made Rumi gently pull Lyn's head to pressed their lips together, Lyn knew this will happened so they respond to Rumi's kiss, knocking down the poor microphone and Lyn wrapping around Rumi's waist. Mira and Zoey was there to cheer them which they yelled and cheered.
"Woohoo! RumiLyn in the house!" Zoey jumped and yelled, Mira was just claping and joining in with Zoey.
While Celine was kneeling on the side door, smirking and gave a deep sighed
"These two…" She smiled.
Rumi gently stop their kiss, they were both smiling.
"Hey" Rumi said softly, gazing and carelessly twirl Lyn's hair.
"Hi" Lyn respond, smiling. They both chuckled
"I miss you so much" Rumi embraced Lyn tightly, she misses them so much
"I miss you more" Lyn responded tightly. blushing and smiling
"Okay but sorry to ruin the moment lovebirds, I made you some dinner just to, repay for the plan you guys did to my niece" Celine said, Which made Rumi and Lyn looked at them. Even Mira and Zoey were cleaning their instruments.
Although Rumi forgot that Celine was involved with this. Which gave Lyn a side eye
"Okay okay! Yeah Celine knows this and I had to… you know" Lyn sheepishly rub their head.
"I had to… do it.. for your celebration of sucessful seminar" Lyn admitted which made Rumi smile instead of being mad at them, She gave a quick peck instead. Celine had to witnessed that but chuckled
"Alright, you guys come on, dinner is going to be cold, Good thing the performance ended after I cooked" Celine said, which made Zoey and Mira notice the smell.
It was Chicken Adobo, One of Lyn and Rumi's friends' fav to eat at Rumi's house. It was probably because either it's Celine's cooking or their family just forbidden them.
All of them immediately sat and grab the plate and put rice, gibberishing and munching as well asking for serve. They all ate except Celine, they were standing which Lyn politely ask her to sit with them. Celine insisted, which she's glad that Rumi's partner is so kind and polite despite her being stupid and chaotic but at least they have a good heart.
After eating a delicious food, Mira and Zoey decided to leave which it was their plan anyway. They were outside of Rumi's house, Zoey and Mira had packed their instruments. Zoey may have a problem with drums but it'll be fine as well Mira is there.
"Me and Mira are going to go back to our dorm now" Zoey said, confirming it to Rumi and Lyn
"Make sure you guys go stay safe going home then" Rumi said, caring about her friends, She approach them giving them a embrace hug all three of them.
Lyn was there looking at them hugging Rumi notice them which she smirk and smiled
"Why are you standing there? You're still part of this, Baby" Rumi said which made Lyn chuckled thinking it's a joke until Mira and Zoey agreed with Rumi.
"Yeah Lyn! You're still part of this!" Zoey exclaimed.
"Yeah Dude, ever since Zoey included you in our group, we actually consider you still a best friend" Mira said
"And as well because you're part of Rumi's heart anyway" Mira added, which made Rumi blushed
"Y-Yeah but you really found my home anyway" Rumi confessed, which made laughed.
"You guys…" Lyn slowly approached, They three of them offer a big hug to let Lyn join their group hug.
They all embrace a tight hug which made Zoey and Lyn squeezed over by tall women.
"I-I can't breathe!" Zoey murmured
"S-Same as well H-Help!" Lyn yelled but all of them laughed and giggled.
Then four of them laughed softly making them a very happy friendship.
"Right, We gotta go now so Bye-"
"Not so fast, young lady" Celine said, in which she has been standing in the front of the door. which made Zoey and Mira stopped walking away.
"You think you're going to going away?" Celine looked angry which made Zoey anxious. I think Lyn told her about her trouble.
"Oh god Lyn did you just-"
"Without a fetch?" Celine asked, Zoey and Mira were confused.
"A-A Fetch?" Zoey stuttered, Mira had to bump Zoey just to keep it cool and not get caught again.
"A fetch to your home then?" Celine clarify, Mira and Zoey were confused, Is Celine asking them to drive them home?
Lyn and Rumi laughed, These two stupid lovebirds.
"What, you guys can say yes or no-"
"Oh Yes! We actually need someone to drive us home so" Mira said which made Zoey looked at her shock.
"Mira, What the fuck are u doing-" Zoey whispered but Mira covered her mouth.
"Zoey really needs help with her drums sooo it'll be hard for us to go home without a car" Mira said honestly, she does have a point.
While Lyn and Rumi were behind there. Just smirkin at each other, they probably going to be at their death wish.
"Then great! I'll start the car then" Celine left as she opens the garage and grabbed the car keys.
Mira and Zoey just looked at Rumi and Lyn, smiling and witnessed what happened.
"Well guess who's going to face the principal~" Rumi teased Zoey, Since she had done a lot of worse things at school and had Lyn covered it up. Zoey
"Mira! why the hell did you agree?" Zoey badgered at Mira.
"Because we can't walk home with us carrying your drums, our legs would have been tired for this" Mira argue.
"You-! Well you have a point, BUT STILL?" Zoey complained. She doesn't have choice.
"Yeah, but good luck facing the principal, because you're a troublemaker of the school afterall" Mira smirked.
"Miraaaa!!!" Zoey whined, punching Mira on her arm, It wasn't really painful for Mira.
Mira chuckled but decided to give Zoey a quick peck on the cheeks, which made Zoey stopped for minute then got fruastration and started punching her hard. Zoey was still blushing and in embarrassed she got kissed by her pink-haired girlfriend hers. Lyn and Rumi had witnessed which made them laughed and exchange looks. Rumi leaned on Lyn's shoulders and Lyn placed her arm around Rumi shoulders. To feel closed and feel Rumi's head onto Lyn's shoulders.
"Such a cute and angry parents" Rumi teased. Which made Lyn laughed on that joke
"A very angry parents" Lyn said, which Mira and Zoey heard that.
"We aren't THAT angry!" Mira and Zoey yelled.
Then suddenly a loud beep from Celine's car. it looks like Celine has finished getting the car out. Rumi even realized that she pulled out a pickup truck instead of their Minivan
"You should have pick a Minivan instead, Tita Celine" Rumi advice.
"Well, Zoey's drums are actually heavy and not fitting so I had to pick the pickup car instead" Celine answered. Which is Zoey's drums were actually at the back outside of the pickup truck
Zoey didn't even dare to look at Celine and Mira had to sit beside Zoey to guide her and avoid her behavior. Both of them waved goodbye as Lyn and Rumi waved back. Mira and Zoey have successfully entered the backseat of the pickup truck. While Celine had to pull the window down just to remind and tell Rumi about something.
"You two, better behaved or else-"
"I know Tita Celine, and you know we would never…bleh" Rumi gave a disgust which she knows what Tita Celine meant.
"Lyn?" Celine look at Lyn. Which made Lyn surprised.
"Um yeah?"
"Our deal maybe finished but I hope you and Zoey here are done being troublemakers" Celine said, Zoey was surprised about what Celine.
"Wait, Deal?" Zoey trying to process what does Celine and realized which made her gasped.
"WAIT LYN DID YOU CLEAR MY VIOLATION SLIPS-"
"Zoey shut it!!" Mira covered her mouth oncce again. While Celine chuckled about Zoey's reaction. Zoey was mumbled and trying to say something clearly but Mira had to calm her down.
"S-Sorry Miss, she's actually born like this I don't know what kind of demon she possessed with…" Mira said trying to behave Zoey.
"It's okay my child, but I really mean it though" Celine winked at Mira. Which made Mira light blush. Mira and Zoey may have manage to earn Celine's respect or, the principal's respect.
"Now, continuing off" Celine gave a deep breathe.
"You really mean to my child name Rumi, and I'm glad she's belong with someone who is like…"
Celine tried to process her thoughts. She doesn't want to mention this to them especiailly Rumi.
"Her mother." Celine admitted, Lyn just smiled and Rumi smiled back. She was frowning and trying to stop her emotions from this.
"Oh Tita Celine…"
"Now, Lyn." Celine tried to keep being confident.
"Take good care of Rumi will you? Rumi sees me a mother anyway" Celine request to Lyn. Which made Lyn saluted.
"I promised, Ma'am Celine!" They exclaimed, they made a promised to Celine. She laughed.
"Tita Celine is enough, Lyn." Celine smiled and Lyn smiled back, which Lyn have earn a huge respect from Celine.
"Now I'll be going to take these two home now, You two take care okay?" Celine said with serious looks
They nodded with a polite looks.
"Also Lyn, make sure you update your parents about this" Celine said which Lyn realized.
"Oh yeah! Well apparently my mom and dad really let me sleepover here since they have full trust to you Celine" They said which made Celine proud
"That's good"
"Now I'll be going now, See you in a bit" Celine said, she was closing the window and then heard Zoey and Mira yelling before it was fully close.
"BYE RUMI AND LYN! ENJOY YOUR DATE-"
Then it was fully closed, the car was about to move. Lyn and Rumi laughed about what they said, they still see Mira and Zoey waving while the car was bout to leave, of course they wave back until the car dissappeared.
"Okay now what do we do?" Lyn asked which they looked at Rumi. Rumi was lowkey smirking
"Well are you in the mood of…cuddling while talking and until we drift asleep?"Rumi said exchange looks. Wrapping around Lyn's waist and Lyn's arm rested on Rumi's shoulders.
"I can never disagree with that" Lyn said which they mean a yes, They both laughed and slowly pressed their lips together. It was sweet as they closed their eyes. Then Rumi immediately carry Lyn by scooping their knees which made Lyn surprised and scream, Rumi was now carrying Lyn with her arms, While Lyn had to hold their hands or arms with her shoulders to be secured.
"Rumiii!! You're gonna make me fall!" Lyn screamed in panic which made Rumi laughed and immediately carried her to her bedroom.
"Baby trust me! I have the broadest shoulders so far" Rumi winked which made Lyn gasped on her flex.
"Oh my gosh Baby!" They laughed.
When they arrived at their bed, Rumi immediately gently flops Lyn on the bed, She even gently approach Lyn on her bed, Giggles and laugh were exchange to them until they kissed. It was so sweet and amazing. Rumi missed this, She miss kissing Lyn so much and giving pecks on the Lyn. She kept giving Lyn so much kisses on her cheeks. Both of them laughed while Lyn wrapped their arms around Rumi's back

"I miss you baby~!! I miss miss you soooo much~~!!" Rumi nuzzled Lyn's nose and neck.
"God You're so cute when you miss me!" Lyn said softly which made both of them laughed.
After Rumi gives her kisses, they both lay down on the bed. Rumi was resting on Lyn's shoulders, Lyn's arms were wrapped around Rumi's shoulders. It was cute that Lyn carelessly thumb at Rumi's back, She loved that and she miss that. They were both looking at the ceiling which made Rumi wondering.
"Hey so…" Rumi move her head just to look at Lyn.
"Did this whole performance thing… was a plan to get me into a date like this?" Rumi asked
"Well, Yeah plus…" Lyn was trying to find the words to explain which made Rumi raise a eyebrow.
"I may… convince Tita Celine to um…" Lyn gave a deep sighed.
"To give you 2 days of absence at school just to rest and spend more time with me…"
Rumi was surprised but she doesn't look angry.
"You're not kidding?" Rumi asked softly.
"Are you?"
"Yeah… She actually agreed which I was shocked" Lyn said, which made Rumi huffed softly.
"Damn…" Rumi realized.
"I didn't know my Tita loves me" Rumi smiled.
Lyn chuckled which made her admire her looks.
"She does…" They smiled.
"You know…Me, Mira, and Zoey have been practicing that song I performed for you like 3 weeks" Lyn said
"And I even made a sign board for you, that's why I kept myself busy and being all absent I guess…" Lyn smiled. They probably gonna need to make this up with the works they missed.
"'To my Workaholic Girlfriend'? Really?" Rumi huffed in a positive way.
"You really have to called me that?" Rumi raised a eyebrow at them.
"Well it's a joke anyway and probably guessing…" Lyn said unsurely.
"Well… True but I just.. have no choice" Rumi said, her tone changed.
"Ever since Celine took me to that school and she had to make me choose and elected as the president." Rumi explained.
"And… I had to you know, work my ass off just to make my dream come true." Rumi was about to tear up, she wasn't supposed to be emotional.
"I don't want to dissapoint my mother who-"
Lyn immediately hug her tightly, Knowing she was still griefing about her mom and she was exhausted.
"Shhh… it's okay baby" Lyn carelessly patted her hair.
"Your mother would be proud of you, you know" Lyn trying to find the words to comfort her.
"The achievements, the efforts, even all of your work at your school were something that made Tita Celine proud" Lyn said, and they smiled again.
"I'm proud too." Lyn chuckled. Rumi gaze at Lyn.
"I still support you Rumi R. Reyes" Lyn hugged Rumi tightly, She was resting on Lyn's chest. She can feel their heartbeat, which made her calm.
"I will always and forever support you" Lyn whispered, Rumi smiled and hugged them back tightly. Finding her comfort.

"Good night Rumi," Lyn said softly which made Rumi smiled.
"Good night LynLyn, Thank you for that performance" Rumi thanked her she quickly got her head up and pressed Lyn's on the lips, Lyn responded and felt the sweet kiss that Rumi gave them.
After that she immediately went back to rest on Lyn's chest. Lyn's arms was still wrapped around Rumi's back and carelessly patted and tightly hugged to keep her secured. She gave a quick smiled as she drift to sleep and so as Lyn, they were about to sleep as they buried their faceon Rumi's shoulders. Resting and using it as a cover to sleep. They feel safe around each other. Even Rumi felt much more safer to Lyn. Rumi easily slept as Lyn slowly slept and suddenly murmured before they fade to rest.
"Hanggang may kahel na langit, sana maiisip mo ako" Lyn mumbled, which they wanted Rumi hear that. But…
They thought she didn't hear it, until she smiled and whispered;
"Hanggang may kahel na langit, naiisip na kita"
