[A story only Hachiko knows] long comic strip and birthday gift for @areiml​. This is my imagination of a story set during the 3 years between OG and Neo, featuring a short meeting between Eri and Beat as they talked about how everyone was coping with Neku’s disappearance and moving on with their own lives. 

Gift to Ayahachitwister ~ I hope you like it! ^^

Eri breathes a sigh. She put down the pencil on her sketch pad she was sketching new clothing designs.

Eri was sitting on her bed. Wearing Mr. Mew PJ’s. Her long-sleeved shirt had Mr. Mew's face on the front of the shirt; the bottom in a pattern of him. Her knees are close to her chest, holding the sketch pad as a surface aside from the cardboard surfaces from the front & back.

She was sketching clothing designs for the new clothing lineup. Meaning, Eri, wanted to introduce new designs for the lineup. She sketch shirts, skirts, dresses, hats, jackets, all sorts of things that they could do for the line up.

She can’t wait to show them to Shiki! She knew that she would make them incredible! Her skills in sewing, woven them together with skilled hands to amazing pieces of clothing.

She was just amazing... But now, she should take a break. She needed to rest to do more designs; also Shiki would get upset if she didn't take care of herself.

She put her sketch pad & pencil in her drawer. Then stretched her fingers from holding the pencil for too long.

But… then she feels two strong but gentle arms wrap around her waist. She cranes her head to see someone who never failed to make her heart flutter.

It was beat.

He was wearing a white tank top & black shorts. His chin on her shoulder; his blue ocean-like eyes held nothing but love & affection in his gaze, making her stomach do like a summersault.

“You ready for bed, ‘yo” He asked. His breath hitting against the shell of her ear. Sending a shiver down her spine. Heat rising to her cheeks. “U-Umm… yeah.” She mumbled, making the blonde chuckle.

They jump into the warm fuzzy blankets. Being envelope in it’s warm embrace, along being embrace by their arms.

Beat: Well we talked and all that. But em... yeah, we funk.

Nagi: Awhwhwhwh wow, 1st base affection.

Shoka: Well that was something.

Shiki: And not what Eri told me! She said she saw you alone, upset, she wanna to check up on you, she comfort you, she confess her feeling for you and then you two make out.

Nagi: Ohohohoh, I see.

Beat: Okay, so maybe I left that part. But come on, I can't show weakness around you ladies.

Shoka: But you show weakness to her.

Rhyme: And really me and Shiki know that you where missing Neku too.

Beat: Yeah, I guess...

Beat: But man I never think I would end up with Eri, even when I keep thinking she was you Shiki.

With Eri’s confession fresh in the air, Beat has to figure out how he feels about her—but as he’s pondering it, he hears she’s stuck up on the ski slopes.
