KANO'S POV
A while had passed since Hayate left. I was still a bit sad that he left but, I told myself not to think about the past and move on. Aside from that, the school festival was coming up and I volunteered to be singing near the end of the night along with a friend who will be helping me. Right now, I'm helping the art department set up their art stall and the gallery as well.
"Up a bit."
I said as the two students raised the painting higher but I gave them a different direction.
"Down a bit, down a bit, stop!"
I said to them and I gave them the thumbs up.
"Nice work boys."
I said to them as they climbed down the step ladders. Once we were done with the art department, I then headed to one of the cafes that were set up to get something to eat. I got some Takoyaki and I went for a wonder with Yui and Remi.
"*Sighs* man I hate it when it comes to the festival."
"Why? I thought you liked these things Remi-chan."
Yui said to Remi but I shook my head at her.
"Don't mind her, sure she likes it when it comes to the festival but when it comes to the organising she hates it."
"That's true and that's why I had to hide from my classmates, apparently they organised a butler and maid cafe and they wanted me to wear a stupid maid costume, ha! fat chance of that happening!"
I nearly choked on a bit of Takoyaki when she said this because I nearly started laughing when she said this. Remi glared at me and she then said to me.
"Oy! it's not funny."
"No, but, the image of you wearing one is kinda funny, pfft! hehe..."
Remi cracked her fists and then Louisa showed up.
"Hey, guys."
Remi spat out some of her drink when she saw Louisa's costume.
*Louisa's costume*
"Wow, Louisa, love the Yukata."
"Thanks, Remi, our class is doing a traditional festival cafe so they asked me to volunteer since Kano is busy with the performing near the end of the night."
I smiled at Remi and Yui when they heard Louisa say that and then Yui remembered this as well.
"Oh yeah, I forgot about that."
"Anyway, Yui, your Yukata has been sorted come on."
Louisa said as she grabs Yui but the wrist and back into the classroom. I giggled quietly and I then spoke up.
"Oh brother, anyway, I'm outta here before those annoying vampire brothers show up."
I said as I walked away from Remi and I continued to finish the rest of my Takoyaki. Once I was done eating my Takoyaki, I headed to the auditorium and I began to help the other musicians set up the stage.
TIME SKIP....
3RD PERSON POV
The festival went on for without any incident from the enemy vampires or from Takeo. It was now time for Kano to perform. After a few of the performing students done their acts and performances, it was now Kano's turn. Kano got onto the stage and then some of the musicians got their instruments at the ready. Kano looked at the crowd and she saw her friends except Kou wasn't there. Kano smiled at them before her song started to play.
(A/n Kou's singing parts will be in bold, kano's singing parts will be in italics and if they're singing at the same time they'll be like this)

(How far is the horizon, the dawn beyond this night

Once Kano finished singing the crowd cheered for her. Some of the male students whistled for her and then Kano drank some water before she spoke into the microphone.
"Thanks for listening to that song, that's one of my new ones and now, for my next song, I've got some help who is going to sing along with me and we've been working on this song together before the festival started."
The students were wondering who it was until Kano looked to the side and she then smiled.
"Come on up here, bud!!"
The girls screamed loudly when Kou ran up the steps and he waved at the crowd with a grin on his face.
"Hey, Minna!!"
You said happily to the crowd while Kano shook her head at him and she then said to him.
"Hey quit showing off, we've got a song to perform."
"Can I do both?"
You said with a smirk making some people laugh a little. Kano shrugged her shoulders and she then spoke up.
"Whatever, anyway on with the performance!"
The crowd cheered when Kano started singing first.

and one by one you're watching as hope is lost.

Even though you can't undo all that you have done,
it not too late to right all that you've done wrong.
You only need to acknowledge the abysmal mind,
and then you'll find the answers inside of you.

Once the song ended the crowd cheered for them. Kano and Kou smiled at each other before they held hands and taking a bow.
KANO'S POV
After our performance was over, Kou and I headed into the school hallway and we were really happy about tonight's performance.
"Phew, man, that was one hell of a performance, thanks a lot for the help Kou, sorry if I didn't make any more duet songs."
"*Chuckles* no need to worry, besides, I enjoyed singing along with you, Keneko-chan."
Kou said as he ruffled my hair but then we heard our fans behind us.
"Look! there's Kou and Kano!!"
"OMG, they're so close!!"
We looked in the direction of their voices and then they came running towards. Kou and I sweat dropped and then we both spoke up.
"Uh oh."
Kou and I ducked and we covered our heads as our fans surrounded us.
REMI'S POV
We heard a commotion and obviously, it was Kano and Kou's stupid fans again and they had Kano and Kou surrounded. Ayato laughed hysterically while holding his belly and I then spoke up.
"Now I know why Kou and Kano complain so much about their fans."
I said as their fans fought over each other to get to Kou and Kano. I looked down and I saw Kou falling forwards and landing on his stomach after escaping the group of yanderes. Kano fell on top of him and she spoke up.
"Oh man, that was close."
I laughed at them and I then said to them.
"Must not be easy to being that popular, oh well, could have been worse, hahahaha!!"
Kano and Kou looked at each other and they smiled at each other. This was one festival that we will not forget.
