A/N: If you'd follow my tweets, you'd know that I'm soooooo tempted to write a mystery/horror/tragedy/angst/twisted-fluff multiple chapter fic :D and yes, I said that I'll only start after my 'O's, but I'm just too tempted so here's my first Chapter! :D I took a long time to find the perfect title, and I just settled for their song 'Endless Dream', since I figured the song would fit the story~ And also, the first 5 chapters would be the pairing introductions! :D
Enjoy this new story! 8D




The road was quiet, and people walked passed each other silently, not even uttering a greeting to the familiar faces on the streets. Today, it was the day. The festival that commemorated the 5 pairs of star-crossed lovers in their village. No one knew about their true story. Different versions varied, and it gets even more absurd as the years go by.

This year, was the hundredth year, ever since their death.

These 10 people's names were never revealed by the priest, as they said that their privacy should be respected. In the afternoon, girls would fantasize, about how romantic each pair would be, how they met, how they would meet again, or how they fell in love in first sight. They would come up with new 'theories' and when they shared it, these 'theories' would spread like wild fire.

In the town's local high school, 10 transfer students arrived. "Finally, after so long, we're back together. Let's all show them what they had did to us."

"Look! They are so handsome!"
"Oh gosh! He just looked our way~!"
The corridor was filled with girls squealing and gossiping. Whispers and giggles got louder as the 10 boys waked towards their respective classrooms. Looking at each other, they came to a mutual understanding to meet up later, before splitting up into pairs.

"Class, we have two new students with us as of today. Although it's uncommon for people to transfer here at this time, and clashing with a festival, please take care of them. Come in both of you." The teacher's words silent the whole class, and the door of the classroom slid open to reveal two boys.

"I'm Yamada Ryosuke. Please to meet you." The smile plastered on the shorter boy's face was dazzling, and the class can't help be think how innocent the boy looked.

"Nakajima Yuto. Nice to meet you." Flashing a a grin, he showed his pearly white untidy teeth, which made the girls of the class squeal secretly inside.

Somehow, both of their short introduction had caught the class's attention, sweeping them into a whirlpool, like magic. From the back of the class, a girl had shouted out and asked if any of them where attached, and the tension in the air rose. Although no one admitted, everyone seems to be relatively interested in the two transfer students' love life.

Looking at each other, they exchanged a faint smile and nodded their head in union towards the class. Girls sighed in disappointment, while the guys heaved a sigh of relief.

Both of them took the seats at the back of the class, sitting beside each other. When asked if they need a tour around the school, Yuto had politely declined it for both him and Ryosuke, saying that they already knew the school's layout by heart.

"Nakajima-san, Yamada-san. Have you heard about the stories of our town's 5 pairs of star-crossed lovers?" Nakamiya Mio asked curiously. That question had caught both Yuto and Ryosuke off guard and they had flinched a little. Slowly, the shook their heads. A signal for Mio to continue.

She told them about the first pair of the lovers. They were known to be the most romantic, never arguing with each other. Apparently, they fell in love with each other at first sight, yet because of their family, they were not allowed to be together. In the end they planned to run away.

As Mio told them the story, she noticed that Ryosuke was shaking. Was it from anger, or frustration? Or maybe nervousness or ... he's feeling scared? Are those tears in his eyes? Yuto had slung an arm over Ryosuke's shoulder, as if comforting the shorter one, and somehow, Mio swore that she felt anger radiating through Yuto, as seen on his face.

Both boys stood up abruptly and when they were about to leave, Ryosuke let out a bitter laugh and practically chocked out the sentence.

"They were the most romantic couple amongst the 5 pairs. But their story was the most tragic. They never did get to run away together. They died without seeing each other for the very last time. Even after that, they were buried so far apart, as their families don't even let them be together even in death." And both of them walked out of the classroom, Yuto's arm was still on Ryosuke's shoulder. It was like they were stuck together.

In class today, both of them did everything and anything together, like unwilling to be separated from each other.

After hearing Ryosuke's words, Mio was rooted in her positing. Why had Ryosuke said all these like he was so sure of it? There was a hint of sadness in both Yuto and Ryosuke's eyes when Ryosuke spoke. Why that bitter laughter? Was it all true? And didn't they say they haven't heard about the story. What's more, Ryosuke said that the first couple was the most tragic couple. Mio had never heard of that.
