"No matter if you come to love him or not, you are never going to be his No. 1"
"What do you meant by that?"
"Oh, I wish I knew it myself."

Rupert chuckles as if he's amused.
I, on the other hand, feel my heart become heavier and heavier.

(I won't be Alfred's No. 1?)
(Alfred already has someone?)
(So that kiss, that was after all a--)

"Stop loving him and love me."
"Love you...?"
"I guarantee you'll always be my No.1"

Saying so, Rupert smiles at me gently.
(Even though he's saying he loves me...)
I'm not persuaded at all.

"I..."
"I want you to love me."
"Rupert..."
"I'm serious."

His eyes, looking down on me, really do look serious.
Rupert's slender fingers brush my bangs...
And I sense his lips approaching my forehead.
