⠀⠀⠀We were at the party, I was there worried that Makoto-senpai might propose. I kept thinking of a way to leave that situation...
⠀⠀⠀I looked at the entrance thinking that it was him that had just entered, but it was Yamazaki-san and Rin-san that showed up. My heartbeat increased as I saw Yamazaki-san in that black tuxedo while everybody else was wearing white. I kept wondering why they came. Did Haruka-senpai invite them?
⠀⠀⠀"Greetings,... Rin." Haruka-senpai greeted him with an intense glare, as Rin-san did back.
⠀⠀⠀"Haru." Rin-san walked past him. It looked like Yamazaki-san got lost in the crowd. I began to be pulled in by the crowd a bit. I moved everywhere, while everybody kept moving foward. I then bumped into someone.
⠀⠀⠀"E-Excuse me, Gomenasai!" I apologized. But i saw the color of their tuxedo, as I was hit onto his chest.
⠀⠀⠀"It's alright, don't worry." He said with a smile. I moved back, away from his chest.
⠀⠀⠀"Y-Yamazaki-san!" I was frightened, someone might have seen that! I looked around, everyone was dancing gracefully to this slow song. I sighed in relief. He then grabbed my hand and pulled me onto the balcony, closing it with the curtains of the large entrance.
⠀⠀⠀"What are we doing here..?" I didn't know what was going to happen, but he walked up to me, grabbing my hand, gently holding it in his as his other hand was on my waist.
⠀⠀⠀"Shall we dance?" He said in a low voice, which made me blush furiously. I was embarrassed.
⠀⠀⠀"W-We shall." He began moving slowly as I began, I was nervous, too nervous. Dancing with the man of my dreams...
⠀⠀⠀As we stared into each other's eyes, we instantly melted. This feeling felt wonderful. Hand in hand with the one I love. But, sadly, It was time for the ceremony, I was called.
⠀⠀⠀"I have to go." I didn't want to leave him. He nodded and slowly began to let go of me, a little wave goodbye as I left to go inside. He went inside behind me. Everyone made a pathway, leading me to where i needed to be. It led to Makoto-Senpai. I went up to him and he took my hand.
⠀⠀⠀He kneeled down, holding a small box in his hand as he looks at me smiling softly.
⠀⠀⠀"Ryugazaki Rei, will you make me the happiest man in the world, and marry me?" I never knew he felt this way about me. I was shocked. He stood there smiling.
⠀⠀⠀I looked over at Yamazaki-san, i saw him in shock. I looked back at Makoto-senpai.
⠀⠀⠀"I-I don't know what to say.." That smile of his remained on his face.
⠀⠀⠀"Please think about it, Rei." He took my hand and laid a kiss on it. He let go. I slowly pulled my hand away, rubbing my arm nervously.
⠀⠀⠀I knew Yamazaki-san was upset.
