I couldn't get the thought out of my head at all, the idea of Yuichiro and I going on a date? Just the two of us? It made my face warm, but I was also scared. Cause I still wonder if Yuichiro cares about what his reputation is, is this a prank or something? No, when Yuichiro confessed to me, it did actually feel like he meant it. But what happens if he hates me after everyone finds out, idea he even want me to be known as his boyfriend? Does he want me to hide myself? He already made me so so out of fear, but this was completely different.

Waking up that next morning, it nwver left my head, the negative thoughts that can just happened over this date, does he evwn want this? Has emhe even thought about this? A risk it would take just to be with someone like me? I didn't even want to think about it, if only the world never judge us this way, they have rheir own reasons, but I also wanna express mine just as freely as they can. Though some make it look easy, in reality, it really isn't, it's the complete opposite.

I sighed and got ready for school, not wanting to even think of the possibilities. I mean, why was everyone so eager on making us go to the closet? If they might just be the same people who would judge us for being ourselves? What would Muichiro think of me if he found out about my feelings for his brother? What would my friends think of they know what Yuichiro did to me in the past? They always joked about it, but how would they feel if it actually had became true?

On my way, I saw Nezuko and Muichiro run over to me and hugged me. They stepped back and Muichiro smacked Neuzko's shoulder, as if he told her to do something as Neuzko's expression changed completely "Hey sorry about last night Senjuro, I didn't mean to push you into something you didn't want to do, let alone go into the closet with someone you hate and make you suffer there for a while. Not even that, I didn't even text or call you after you left, I didn't even knew you left the party. I hope you can forgive me.."

"Yeah, I'm sorry I wasn't even there, I was lost in my own thoughts, when I heard about it I was obviously wabyed to make sure you were alright..."

"It's fine though! Thanks for caring. I was stuck with Rui afterwards and had to take him home..."

"Speak of the devil, Hey Rui!!!"

"Don't talk to me...my head still hurts... I'm not in the right mood right now"

"Rui! You forgot your lunch!"

"Enmu...Shut up!! People are staring!'

"Oh! Hey that's not how I taught you to behave!"

"Shhhh!!! Your embarrassing me!!" All three of us laughed as his caretaker rushed to give Rui his lunch in a bag and took off as Rui was red in the face, "don't even talk about it .." Rui said as he covered Muichiro's mouth before he could comment on it.

As we made it inside, I saw Yuichiro, I blushed and took a deep breath before walking up to him.. "Hey Yuichiro!" When he heard my voice, he turned around, stopping what he was doing as I grabbed his arm.

"Hey, what's up?" For the first time, he wasn't annoyed or upset to see me, he didn't even look like he was gonna tease me. This was indeed different and something new to me. I wonder, if I should say it, to say how I was feeling, how I was this morning. Would he even want to answer? Let alone talk to me about it? Would he get made at me. But I'll never know..unless I...

"I am wondering something? About if we do end up dating and all...." Ask....

"Hm? What about it? Do you hate the idea of being with someone like me?" I gasped, didn't he seriously think that? Did I come off that way? I didn't even get to the point yet!

"Oh! It's not that! I do like you and all but um... it's more so about you..."

"Yeah?"

"Do you hate the idea of being with me? " He looked surprised, and even looked like he was hesitant to answer...

"What makes you say something like that?"

"You hate me, at least you tell everyone that. Everyone knows it, you're popular and have a good reputation ever since the incident when others found out you used me in the beginning. If they find how our study sessions and we are dating, aren't you afraid that I'll ruin your reputation?"

"Well um....that isn't -" before he could even finish his sentence, the bell interrupted him, it was awkward, and I cleared my throat a little, "um...you were saying..?"

"You know what, we'll talk later, maybe during our study session afterschool? Look I have to go unfortunately, see you around..."

"Oh yeah...see you..."

With that he walked off and I stood there in confusion and a little heartbreak, the way he left it off, the way he. Delivered that last part. He sounded upset almost that I asked that, I wonder if I should have even asked that. I wonder if he wants me to pretend like nothing happened, like nothing happened at all.

After school, as always, I began heading downstairs to the library and then waited for Yuichiro arrive. For some reason, he was late, and I began getting worried until he showed up. "Um what took you so long?"

"No reason, just stuff..." I knew he was lying that time, but why did he lied to me ? It made me concerned and a little upset. We sat down and I opened my textbooks as we began studying as usual, that was until..."Senjuro... about eailer..." I froze and turned to him as he moved closer to me , grabbing my face as my face began to turn red. "Y-yeah?"

"It's just that, I am afraid, of everything I worked for just to be crushed down because I am something that everyone thought I wasn't? Though don't just think it your fault, even so, in the end I would still like men. I never been attracted to females anyways in general. Just know, if it makes you that uncomfortable, we could indeed, I guess pretend like we still hate each other until we are out of highschool...?"

"But what's not until next year -"

I was cut off when Yuichiro kissed me again, just to shut me up or something, he pulled away as I was left stunned, "Let's just talk about it more later tonight alright? Right now we should get back to studying right now, I have an exam tomorrow.."

"R-right!"
