Weeks pass and Itto and Gorou did not really talk to one another yet when they encountered eachother they would just give eachother a wave and a awkward smile.
At the moment Itto is at a bar having a drink with the gang as they all except for Kuki are rather drunk. Gorou is at the bar as well but not with them but with Beidou and Kazuha.
Kazuha was not allowed to drink from Beidou yet the woman has her arm around Gorou who has his face on the table seemingly drunk as well "what?! you accually are in love?! About time!" The woman laughs and pats his back gently before she chugs a whole bottle down.

Itto looks at where the loud talking and laughter came from yet seeing Gorou there and hearing what she said he only grows more upset and looks down at the bottle in his hands.
Just rubbing it in huh? (Rubbing in that Gorou doesnt love him as he still thinks Gorou loves somebody else)
It truely hurts Itto to hear Gorou is in love yet with who? If it isn't his friend Kazuha then who is it?
"A lot of people think he has flaws yet to me he is perfect...I wouldn't want to change a thing about him" Gorou slurs out not being able to really raise his head because it was feeling so heavy from being intoxicated "I miss him so much. We used be close yet now we just seem to have drifted appart."

"Who is the lucky man?"
The brunette asks yet seeing Itto staring at them she glares at him "what yah looking at?!"

Gorou manages to look up to see who Beidou is shouting at yet locking eyes with Itto he falls silent as he looks at the other with that same fainth smile on his face like always and a light blush covering his cheeks. Beidou watches how they stare at one another and she quickly can see this is the man Gorou is interested in. Itto stands up and walks over "could...we talk?"

Gorou nods and stands up having to hold onto Itto his arm so he can properly walk as they both leave the bar to go to the back of it to have more privacy so they can have a conversation "we should not talk important matter when we are drunk-..."

"I love you... I should have said that much earlier yet it feels good saying it now...now I can't stop saying it rven if you do not love me back...I love you General Gorou...I lo-" his mouth got covered by Gorou his hand as he watches the other look down seeming upset and a little shaking. "What is wrong?"

Gorou looks up at the man with tears streaming down his face "don't say that. Dont give me hope where there is none. I was not born a man Itto so I have deceived you once more I suppose... I am sorry. I should have told you earlier"

"I know..."

"Y-....you know?"

Itto nods and walks closer cupping the other his face in his hands and bends down so they are eye to eye "Even if I didn't does it matter? I love you for you...I don't care how your body looks like. I love you for your personality...looks are a bonus and you are really adorable and handsome in my eyes" Itto smiles yet seeing the other get flustered he chuckles softly and rests his forehead against the other his forehead "I know you are nervous to tell me the truth because you have been rejected before I pressume or lost lots of people because of it yet I am not one of those. I accept you for who you are. I will love every single inch of you. Just allow me to love you and I am yours...my heart beats this fast for only you General"

Gorou listens to the other and even though he got flustered at the sweet words he still has tears rolling down his cheeks and he never has feeled so happy that somebody accepted him for who he is when it comes to love. The general does not hesitate to hug Itto tightly and press a kiss onto his cheek "thank you..." he whispers softly.

Stunned Itto would hug back and he swallows thickly and he has one hand against the wooden wall to keep them stable "can you do that again"

"Do what again?"
