Chrono x Tokoha : The Challenges

Turn 12: That Place

Once he closed the shop, Chrono took her to that place. The famous rooftop where they can see the beautiful sight...

That place will always hold some beautiful memories for them and Shion as well. It's the place where they're able to escape from the reality and just be on their own world there...

Tokoha: "So it's this place afterall..."

Chrono: "Yeah, I always love this place."

Tokoha: "Me too."

Even though it's very cold that night, he can feel the warm feeling by just being close to her. He then looked at her enjoying the view with her hair flying because of the wind...

The sight from up there might be beautiful, but he has an even more beautiful sight and that is Tokoha herself. Maybe what Luna said was right, the Paris effect has got into her that she has become even more beautiful as time goes on...

Tokoha: "Hm? What is it?"

Chrono: "Oh... it's just..."

Tokoha: "Hm?"

Chrono: (Blushes) "Y-You really look... even more beautiful as time... goes on."

Tokoha: "Eh? Really?" (Blushes)

It feels strange to be hearing a man calling her beautiful other than her family. And out of all men out there it's Chrono...

Tokoha: "Well, thank you I guess. I never hear a man call me beautiful other than my family." (Smiling)

Chrono: "Really? That's a surprise..."

Tokoha: "I guess I'm not that attractive to some, well can you blame them? I always been a very strict girl in school."

Chrono: "You're the class rep afterall. There's nothing wrong with that. If they can't stand you then that's their problem."

Tokoha: (Smiling) "I know that."

Chrono: "But I do mean it... really."

Tokoha: "Yeah... thank you."

He really doesn't want to waste anymore time. It's getting late and it will definitely get colder as time goes on. It will not be a funny situation if they got sick because of wanting to confess...

Tokoha had the same thought, as much as she loves the scenery there, she wants to get this over with as soon as possible...

Chrono and Tokoha: "So uh... eh?!"

Chrono: "You first."

Tokoha: "Nah, you can go first."

Chrono: "Well then... uhm..."

Tokoha: "What is it?"

Chrono: "I really don't know how to say it correctly since I never have this kind of experience before. But... my feeling towards you have changed over the past few years..."

Tokoha: "Eh?"

Chrono: "It's started when you announced that you will continue your study at Paris. This selfish side of me came when I don't want you to be far away from me but at the same time I don't want to hold you back at the same time. That's also the point where I realized that maybe I don't see you as a friend anymore but..."

Tokoha: "But?"

Chrono: "More than just a friend... Then, when we fought in U20 I felt like we have such strong feeling towards each other, it's different to passion and it's more than just a passionate fight. Even Shion can feel it, I don't know about the others. Then the battle with Gyze, I almost lose my true self several times but you and the others managed to pull me up to avoid that..."
