Ryouta looks at me & I clear my throat nervously. This is the scary part. "I wanted to tell you that... I... have had an amazing time being your friend all these years... but..."
He raises his eyebrows, frowning slightly. "'But'?"
I open & close my mouth. "I... don't know how to explain this but... I've always thought you were super cool &... if you wanted to be my boyfriend, I don't think I would mind it..."
He looks at me, eyes widening. "Are you saying... you like me? Like, romantically?" I nod slowly, nervously awaiting his reply. He stands up slowly, heading toward me. "I... feel the same way... I... didn't want to say anything because, well... I didn't know if you felt the same way, but-"
I blink at him, standing up. "Wait... you like me too?"
He grins, arms spreading wide. "Yeah. I've... liked you for a while, I think... Took me a while to figure out that I did, but... I do."
I rush in & hug him suddenly & he makes an "mph" noise when I do. "That's... great..." I look up at him slowly & our eyes meet, standing extremely close to each other.
So cute :3 <3. Another POV change, btw, that's why the chapter's so short :')
