PLEASE DON'T SKIP THE LINES WRITTEN IN ITALIC, one important thing is being mentioned!!

Other than that ... Happy reading!

Everyone was probably waiting for this reconciliation chapter, right? :')


Chapter summary: Megumi and Yuuji have a talk.

-------------

"When you did it with him the second time ... were you regretting it back then?"

That question was enough to throw Megumi off guard emotionally.

It was over ... right?

Yuuji was willing to talk to Megumi because he wanted to end things between them completely, right??

Crestfallen, Megumi lowered his head. That question was the final blow, having the power to destroy everything.

"Were you regretting it back then?" Yuuji insisted emotionlessly.

Megumi shook his head.

A little period of silence.

"I fucking knew it," Yuuji whispered to himself.

And Megumi was able to hear that.

It was over. That was what was going through Megumi's head. It was over. It was over, it was over, it was over.

"Do you regret it now?" Yuuji went on with a calm and collected manner.

Head still lowered, Megumi pressed his lips together and nodded. If he were to open his mouth and try to say something, he would only manage to have his lips tremble and be too useless to utter any words.

What Megumi didn't know was that Yuuji hadn't asked these question to humiliate or ridicule him. It had rather been a case of self-interest — to satisfy his own little curiosity.

The things that were actually important to Yuuji were coming now.

"Did you ever regret not having told me about you and him while we were dating?"

Megumi's whole body felt different. His emotional side was storming, sizzling and building, making his body react to it physically.

Megumi nodded.

He could feel his body reacting, especially his face. His eyes.

I've regretted it ever since the weekend trip, Yuuji.

"Don't stay silent. Say something."

"D-Do you r-regret having had sex with me?" Megumi mumbled almost unnoticeably.

"Of course I regret it."

A stinging pang stabbed through Megumi's chest. His body began to tremble lightly, his head hurt, his face twisting as he tried not to cry. He closed his eyes to keep the wetness away.

Yuuji sighed again. He had most likely been to harsh with his answer.

"But it happened, nothing can be changed about that anymore. Don't think about it."
