A/N: First Miyon-centric drabble? Why, I do believe it is. Not that it's incredibly amazing or anything. Then I kind of lost track of what the hell I was on about near the end, and just gave up XD Ah well, that's what happens.

Locked in a Cage
24
(Saturn)

The sky above… so beautiful… stars scattered across the endless stretch… the mess of clouds, dark grey as it fades into the deepest blue possible… maybe even black…

Miyon frowned, as she tapped the pen against her lip. She found herself lost for words (something that happened rarely, with so many ideas clamouring in her mind, attempting to burst free) to complete what she had started, as her inspiration dried up at an instant and refused to return to her.

She gave a frustrated sigh and pushed herself away from the desk, as her gaze shifted to the window – rain splattered the glass as she watched. Miyon brushed stray hairs away from her line of vision as her thoughts wandered over towards her school life.

Although she didn't like to admit it, there were times when Miyon felt that her friends were… distanced from her; like they knew something that she didn't, and no one wanted to tell her. Karin, Kazune, Himeka… it had only been recently that Yuuki had also begun to act a little strange.

It worried her, especially with the knowledge that she could do nothing to help them, as she sighed and slumped onto her desk. While she tried to distract herself from such horrid thoughts, her mind shifted elsewhere. To a certain someone who always seemed to brighten her day, despite not being the most optimistic person in the world.

A sudden, sharp tapping against her window snapped Miyon out of her daze; she jerked up and, at an instant, recognised the perpetrator. With a smile, she moved over to open the window.

"Karasuma-san."

He sat on the sill, clearly not wanting to set foot in her room (he had obviously dubbed it 'sacred grounds' and dared not intrude any more than necessary); "I know you've already told me to just use the front door, but… I just can't."

The former student body president was also a mystery to Miyon, for so many reason, as she could only remain amused at how awkward he clearly felt.

"I was just thinking about you, Karasuma-san."
