Kaede's pov
-----------------
"Yo, Kaede! You're fidgeting again." I flinched. It was just Miu. This is the third time she's caught me fidgeting with my pencil.

"Ah- Sorry.. I'm just so focused on the party lately. I'm.. Nervous-? I dunno- but it doesn't matter. We should pay attention."

I look down at my notebook, trying to ignore Miu's piercing stare.

"Yeah.. Okay."

I don't know if I should be excited or nervous about the party. Maki's coming, I get to hang out with Maki outside of school..

But why am I even worried about Maki coming to the party? She's my best friend, why would I be nervous about something like this?

Maybe I'm in love. Hm, no way. I can't be in love with Maki. Sure, she's kind, caring.. For the most part- and we're really close of course.

Yeah.. But what if it *is* love?

No. It's probably just because we don't hang out and see each other outside of our classes, just school in general. Yeah.. It's gotta be that.

-The dismissal bell rings lol-

Oh geez, I spent all of class questioning how I feel about Maki--

(Miu) "Hey Kaede, you look off today. Is something on your mind?"

I sigh, "Yes, actually. I do have something on my mind."

-time skip, Kaede's ranting abt Maki lolz-

"Ooh, sounds like Kaede's got a crush!!" Miu teased

"Quiet down Miu! Someone could hear you!"

"Yeah Miu! Somebody could hear you!!"
I heard familiar giggling from behind us.

"AH- Kokichi-? How long have you been there?! How much did you hear??"

"Oh, Kaede.. I heard it all." Kokichi grinned.

I just stared, unable to process my situation.

"Aww, Kaede! Your face is all red!" Miu teased again.

"Oh shut it Miu, you're not helping.." I shove my face into my hands, attempting to hide my embarrassment.

(Kokichi) "Don't worry Kaede! We won't tell anyone! Or I won't at least.."

(Miu) "Yeah! I won't tell anyone either! I promise you!"

"Ah.. Okay." I sighed a sigh of relief.

So, I guess I was right.

I *am* in love with Maki.
