A/N: For both me and this series, light and fluffy time never ends. Short and sweet, reviews always appreciated.

"Haa…" Azusa yawned loudly, despite efforts to stifle it. Across from her, Ui wore a similar look. "It's too quiet around here."

"You should have tried harder to keep Onee-chan from graduating then," Ui mumbled with a grin.

"No way," she shot back. "She's driven me crazy enough already."

The younger Hirasawa turned her gaze toward the window. "Well, I wish she was here."

Azusa yawned again. "Look, I miss your sister just as much as- okay, maybe not, but she needs to learn to be on her own sometimes. Besides, everyone else is with her, so there shouldn't be any problems, right?" She hoped that somewhere, she hadn't already been proven wrong.

Ui returned her attention to the room. "Yeah, but still…"

Azusa's eyes flashed. "Hey, Ui, let your hair down."

The brunette cocked an eyebrow at her. "Why?" she asked, but removed the ribbon anyway.

Azusa grinned. "Just trying to imagine Yui-senpai looking responsible." Ui shot her a half-scowl. "Really, why don't you wear your hair like that more often? It's not like it's not cute or anything."

Ui smiled weakly. "Because I look like Onee-chan?"

"What?"

Her eyes turned downcast. "I know I can't replace her, but…I guess I can try…"

Azusa said nothing for a moment, then reached up and removed her own hair ties. "What do you think?"

Ui stared at her in confusion. "Huh?"

"Someone once told me that I look like Mio-senpai when I let my hair down. What do you think?"

"Well…maybe a little bit…"

"So you can start thinking of me as Mio-senpai?"

Ui grew more perplexed. "No, I can't."

"So why should I treat you like Yui-senpai just because you look like her?"

"That's not…"

Azusa sighed. "I know what you meant. But Yui-senpai is who she is, for better or worse. She's irreplaceable." Her tone softened, and she smiled. "And so are you, after all. You are Ui and nobody else. I love you for who you are."

Ui stared at her with glittering eyes. And stared. And stared.

"…What?"

"You really mean that?"

"Well, yeah…"

Ui blushed lightly. "You…love me?"

In comparison, Azusa's face exploded. "Th-that's not what I…I mean, it's not that I don't, but…it's like…" She placed a hand on her chin in thought.

Ui giggled, then crossed over to the girl and kissed her on the forehead.

"Wh-what was that?"

"Well, that's about right, isn't it?"

Azusa glared at her. "You know, maybe you two aren't so different."

"Really? Then would you wear your kitty ears for me?"

"Gah…"
