V: Thin Air

It was too dark where I fell. My vision seemed to circle around while I hear screams of excitement and fear. Maybe the judgement had started.

Wait. "Where am I exactly?" I asked myself as I felt a seemingly warm air slightly blowing off my hair. It's as if someone is breathing on top of my head.

I noticed that there's a rhythm in what I'm hearing. Aside from the distant screaming, I hear "Thump... Thump... Thump..." louder and louder. It won't stop.

Suddenly, I remembered the song I wrote about heartbeat "...I can't stand it... Everytime I hear your heartbeat I feel paradise... I can't stand it... I feel my body fires up at your glance... I can't stand it..."

I can't stand it! I felt the warm air on my head and heard heartbeats over and over again. My own heart is now beating faster than usual. I hold it tightly believing this can stop the rapid beating. But it didn't.

I'm getting sweaty all of a sudden as I move a bit to try to stand up. What is this I laid on, I wonder.

Pushing my arms to finally get up, I heard, "Uuhhh..." a groan from a feminish voice. And the cold night turned into hot summer.

Sweating all over, I gasped and swallowed.

The band room's back door surprisingly opened. The light from the space revealed to me what I was curious about.

"What the... San?!" Yuu threw a bottle of beer on my head.
