XXX - Idea

After this realization, I'm walking home with Mitsuhara. I stay quiet, but my mind is an up-and-running factory. Should I bury these feelings? Should I let them grow? If I let them grow, it's definitely going to distract me from volleyball. Gah, who thought I would find someone to distract me from volleyball? I accidentally let out a frustrated snort, and Mitsuhara notices. "Long day?", she asks me. Oh cool, she gave me an excuse. I nod, and she nods in understanding. If I don't want her to distract me much, I should probably tell her soon so it'll be a weight off my shoulders. But then, it would become a weight on her shoulders. WHY ARE FEELINGS SO COMPLICATED!

I don't think Kageyama realizes it. He's making such weird faces now, I can't help but burst out laughing. He looks at me, his face filled with child-like curiosity. "What?", he asks. I give in to my urges, and pinch his cheek. "You were making weird faces, cutie." CRAP CRAP CRAP, WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST SAY??? I act casual about it, but I'm freaking out inside. His face portrays my thoughts. "D-did you just call me a c-cutie?", he stutters out. I hum in response, walking ahead of him.

What the fuck just happened? I'm standing there, my fingers brushing my cheek. I can still feel the ghost of her hand on my cheek. She walks on ahead, and I speed-walk to catch up. She called me cute... I hope I'm not reading too much into this. Could she possibly like me back? I don't know what the signs are, I've never had a girlfriend before. Well, I guess I'll think more about it later. Soon, we reach our houses, and wave each other goodbye.

I can't sleep, so I'm browsing the channels on TV. Some romance movie is on. The male lead was confessing to the female lead on a Ferris wheel. How cliché, I thought, scoffing. I'm about to switch the channel, when they start kissing. Sometimes, just sometimes, I get suckered up into finding that kind of stuff super cute. This was one of those times. "D'awww," I cooed. Seeing that, suddenly an idea sparked in my mind. I haven't really thought of how I'm going to confess to Kageyama. Maybe I could be cliché for once? I'm sure Kageyama would cringe, but not going to even lie, it's practically a perfect confession.
