"I feel like no one actually likes me," Komaeda cried. "E-everyone's only nice to me b-because I'm famous... I just wanna feel normal..."

"Well... I like you for you. I've always liked you for your kind heart, not your looks or fame or whatever," Hinata told him.

"R-really?" Komaeda looked up.

"Of course. You're my best friend after all. I really care about you,"

-

"Komaeda, your hands are cold," Kamukura stated.

"Yeah, I get cold easily,"

The other boy gently grabbed his hands. Kamukura's hands were much warmer than his. He held them up to his mouth and placed a kiss on them. Komaeda's cheeks heated up.

"You can always tell me when you're cold. I'll gladly give you my coat if you want,"

-

"I-I..." Komaeda looked at Hinata and then at Kamukura. "Choosing is... so hard..."

-

"Thanks for taking me here, Hinata-kun. You know... you make me feel good. When I'm with you, I can forget about my job,"

"I'm glad you're happy." Hinata smiled. "Usually I'm not the type to say emotional things, but... You're really special to me, Komaeda,"

"You're special to me too,"

-

"You don't have to be scared. I'm not going to judge you for the pictures they take of you," Kamukura told him.

"I-I hate myself!" Komaeda sniffled. "I-I wish I was dead! I don't wanna take any more pictures, I don't wanna do this job anymore!"

Kamukura pulled him into a hug. "It's going to be okay, Komaeda. I'm always there for you,"

"Th-thank you..."

-

"I can't choose... that's impossible..." Komaeda said.

"You have to," Kamukura told him.

"B-but I like both of you,"

"It can't be that hard to choose," Hinata told him. "Who do you like more?"

"Neither! I like both of you the same!" He told them.

"Both of us, hm? You keep insisting on that. Do you want to be with both of us at the same time?"

Komaeda turned red in the face. "H-huh?? That's silly, you can't have two partners at once,"

"If the three of us are fine with it,"

"I'm not fine with it!" Hinata hissed. "I am not gonna share you with that guy!"

"See? I don't wanna force Hinata-kun into a relationship he's not comfortable in,"

"If he's unwilling to compromise, I suppose you'll have to just choose me,"

"That doesn't even make any sense!" Hinata said. "He can still be with me, just not with you too,"

"Dating two people... I've never even considered that..." Komaeda muttered. "That's so... weird,"

Kamukura put a finger under his chin and lifted it up. Komaeda turned red. "Why do you think that?"

"W-well..." He looked at Kamukura's face. "It's..." He felt his finger under his chin. "Isn't it greedy?"

"Komaeda, you're kind and thoughtful and smart. You have a beautiful face. Of course you're going to have many admirers. No one can blame you for not knowing who to choose." He pulled his hand away.

"Kamukura, do you seriously want him to date both of us?" Hinata asked.

"He likes both of us, it would make him happy. The only reason why I wanted him to choose me was because I wanted to be with him, not because I didn't want him to be with you. I thought the same as you a few days ago, but... I thought about it. And it's not like you don't deserve to be with Komaeda. If he likes us both, why not? We can at least try. So, Hinata? Are you willing to try for Komaeda?"

"For Komaeda, huh? I... guess trying won't hurt,"

"Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huhuhuh??" Komaeda frantically asked. "T-two boyfriends??"

"Only if you're fine with it," Hinata said.

"B-but how would that work? I mean, I'd have to show you both the same amount of affection and kisses and hugs and dates and-"

"We'll figure it out along the way." Kamukura gently took his hands into his own warm ones. "Do you want to?"

Komaeda gulped. "I..."
