When Akira met Yuuki Mishima, he felt warmth and longing to the boy and the entire time, he didn't live his side. But the boy was insanely shy towards him and Ryuji, so, Makoto had an idea to make the boy trust them. With Ryuji, it was easy, because the blond boy just made place between him and Akira, so that Yuuki could sit between them. Ryuji was aware of the soul bond between his newly-made friends and tried to bring them both closer. It was even easier with Akira. When Mishima sat between them, he felt longing and warmth towards the messy black-haired and dark-grey eyed boy like he was the most important thing in his world, and he was always nearer to him than to the others. When the next guests arrived, Ryuji was jumpy, when he saw his childhood friend Ann Takamaki. The blond boy immediately introduced the blondish haired and green-eyed girl to the others and welcomed her in the group. Ryuji already informed her about Akira’s soul mate and she just smiled devious and made sure to tell, how cute they were. Both boys flushed red about Ann’s comment. Even though Ann was a little girl, she knew, how to tease someone and everyone feared, what would happen, if she becomes a teenager. Ann was accepted by the boys and Makoto was thrilled to meet Ann, because she was her first female friend ever. Both girls bonded quickly and Ann complained to her that she had the same problems like her that she was surrounded by boys and had no female friend. Sae and the Takamakis just snickered at the girl’s statement, but they had to agree that both girls were surrounded by boys and had no female friend. But today, it changed. Akira was happy, how bigger his friendship circle was growing and that he had finally met his soulmate. When it was time for the birthday dinner, the children had to go to the dinning table. Akira was sitting between Ryuji and Yuuki, whereas Ann was sitting next to Sae, who were enjoying their dinner. When the dinner finished, Mr. Niijima got an ice-glacier chocolate cake, Makoto’s and Sae’s favourite. After the candles were blown and everyone had eaten their piece, the children went playing until it was late.
