Yasurouka's POV
But just to be extra careful, I asked, "Who is the girl that you love?"
He looked at with a blank expression and silence spread between us. None of us said anything as ti passed by. He finally let out a breath, and opened his mouth, "It's…"
The tension between us was growing with each passing second. He looked into my eyes, and with a warm smile he said, "It's you, Reina."
As those words left his mouth, I couldn't believe my ears. My eyes grew wider and I couldn't hear anything else other than those words resonating in my ears. A strange feeling washed over , but it felt really delightful.
"Heh?" Was the only words I could utter.
"I've fallen for you." He repeated himself in a softer tone.
"Wait… what…!?" I was in disbelief. I expected no one to confess to , let alone him.
"I know it's a bit sudden for you… but I just could not keep these feelings pent up inside any longer." He walked a bit closer to and I stepped back.
"Yo… Saishi-kun loves ?" I could get my mind off the fact that he casually confessed to like it was nothing.
"I know it's been hardly a month since we t… but I found myself in a dilemma of feelings for you." He said while grabbing his hair with his right hands and pacing towards .
"I can't… you seriously love ?" I said nervously as I backed up against the wall next to and he slamd his left hand next to and looked down at .
"Reina… do I look like a person who would joke about sothing like this?" He asked in his usual blatant tone.
"No… I… that's not what I ant." I averted my eyes from him, as I felt my cheeks getting hotter with each passing second.
"I don't know how to deal with these feelings… every ti I'm talking with you, every ti you smile at … I just keep falling in this abyss of love." He said in an irritated tone. It was like he hated the fact that he was in love with soone.
"What should I do?" He asked in such a way that it sounded like he was expecting an answer in return.
"I… don't know." I answered hesitantly.
"It's been really difficult for to be with you recently… It's been difficult for to be your friend." He removed his hand from my side and let out a dry chuckle. He walked a bit far from creating so distance between us.
"Bu… but don't stop… don't leave ." I raised my hand but stopped mid ways as his eyes were piercing into mine.
"I can't suppress these feelings… They just keep growing. I never imagined that I would fall in love with you."
"But… I… uh…" There was much uncertainty in my mind. I always expected soone to confess to but now that it's really happening, I can't even form a proper sentence.
"Listen Reina… I don't want any answer from you…" He said, looking at my uneasy composure.
"Wh...what!? I said before he even completed his sentence. Of course, I had an answer for him. It's just that I wasn't sure of my answer.
"Whether you love or not?" He completed this sentence.
"That's… that's really unfair… I can't… I don't know." The pressure of the situation was far more than I could've imagined.
"The monts we spent together might've ant sothing to you? Or was it my mistake to assu that there was sothing between us?" His eyes reflected the conflict inside him. This was the first ti I was seeing so many emotions in a person like him.
That too… for ?
"I… please… I want so ti for this…" I said as my voice was relatively growing low with ti.
"Listen Reina… I'm sorry… really sorry for falling in love with you… I never ant for this to turn out like this…" He raised his head upwards and I could see the movent of his voice box with each word he spoke.
I was slowly approaching him, "Saishi… listen to …"
"But… I just…" He continued without looking at .
"Saishi… look at … " I stood on my tiptoes and held his face with both of my hands. He finally looked at with deep, dark eyes and a plain, regretful expression.
"Huh…"
"I never said that I don't love you… it's just that I need so ti for myself to co to terms with my feelings…" I said with a warm smile.
"Reina…" He called out my na softly.
"Mhm?"
"Please don't ever stop talking to …" He said as he rested his forehead over my head.
"...like you did… I was really…" He continued.
"I won't… I need you in my life too…" I moved my other hand towards his hair and patted him.
"You make feel things that I've no idea how to deal with…" He chuckled.
"Saishi… I didn't know you felt that way…" I said nervously. He held my hand which was caressing his hairs and raised his back up, looking at .
"I… you're weird Reina… but I love you." The corners of his lips rose slightly as he said that in a low tone.
"I… uhh…" I was again speechless. Each ti the word 'love' leaves his mouth, my body becos stiff.
"You look so cute right now… that I want to make you mine…" He said while staring at . He will kill today. I'm going to die of anxiety due to confession.
"Sai...Saishi? I… uh… Saish…" Gathering so courage, I can at least tell him that I like him. I really did like him.
"I… like you… "
"I don't know if things will remain the sa between us or not after this day…" He leaned back again, still holding my hand
"Saishi… don't worry… everything will be fine…"
"Anyways… I just wanted to get this off my chest…"
"Saishi…" I wanted to say sothing to him, so I called out his na.
"Yeah?" He looked back at .
"Wait for my answer… don't go loving soone else." I said with a glare and a smile that I had to try really hard to put on my face at the mont.
"I… won't." He nodded.
"You better don't." I said and I quickly rushed towards the class.
