vivid bad squad love square

Chapter 3: Your feelings are being played with!

Toyas POV:
Feelings for me? Well, that can't be right! Akito has always like An. Always. I remember him saying he would be perfectly fine teaming with An. Until An found Kohane. But he still liked her! No. Did I give up too soon? I never thought I had a chance for Akito. I thought this was my burden to "fix" this, since I had already given up. If I had simply allowed myself to be happy and actually tried my hardest to get my feelings across to Akito... then maybe, things
could ve worked without me doing all of this. But it is too late now to do anything. |was too
much of a coward. Aoya-"Kohane says but I interrupt her. All I have been doing is running so now I have to fix this. "Azusawa. I'm sorry" I say. I alone am the one to blame for this entire situation
Akitos POV:
ljust finished running and | check my phone. I see An has texted me.
An: Akito! Emergency! Respond ASAP!
Akito: What???
An: Does Toya actually like Kohane?
Akito: chokes on his water Why are you asking me?
An: Cuz, I heard you guys fought.
Akito: From who?
An: Rin and Len lol. So does he?
Akito: (his inner thoughts: Rin and Len? They were listening?) You should ask him yourself.
It's not like you to be so indirect.
An: I'm planning to. Just thought you'd know a little more.
Akito: ...It's complicated. Are you mad at him?
An: I dunno. Maybe I will be. It's just... nothing feels real rn, you know? I don't want to jump to conclusions. I know Toya isn't a bad person. And besides... Kohane seems so happy right now.
Toyas POV:
'ah. I'm sorry... I don't know... what's wrong with me.. Kohane says. "Azusawa... I'm sorry. I really-". "No. I'm the one who should be sorry." Kohane interrupts me. Huh? 'Have I been forcing my feelings onto you this whole time..? I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how you
must've felt....' Kohane says to me. 'ah. Sorry... I don't know why, but... My tears... won't
stop.." Kohane says as she starts crying. "It's my fault! You didn't do anything wrong Azusawa! I was too scared to face Akito with these feelings... so Iran." yell out.
'Shinonome-Kun?" Kohane says. 'Aoyagi-Kun, you like Shinonome-Kun?'
Ans POV:
"Aren't you angry?" I tell Kohane. 'Huh?' "To have your feelings toyed with like that! You were serious about him, weren't you!" I say to her. 'An-Chan? Why are you here?" Kohane asks. Kohane thinks. 'Oh, I see... An-Chan has always been looking after me this whole time:"I don't know... I guess I... haven't fully processed it yet? she replies with. "Are you gonna run then! Run and never see his face again!" Iyell."I did think about it." Kohane responds. "THEN!" I shout. 'But I won't. Because before everything, Aoyagi-Kun is my friend!" Kohane responds with.
Kohanes POV:
"I see... too scared to face him, huh... I hope you'll find yourself to be more selfish, Aoyagi-Kun. It was hard, wasn't it? Having to hide your feelings for so long." I say to him. Toya's eyes start watering and tears drip down his face while he tries to wipe them away. He sniffles while I say You're not alone anymore, Aoyagi-Kun." I say.
Toyas POV:
I decide to go to Akitos house and tell him the truth. Kohane wishes me good luck before l go. I knock on his door, and he answers. 'Hello? Toya!' he says. "You were right Akito, I rushed into things without considering anything else" I say to him. "Toya? What are you.'
"From now on, I'll think about myself more, so..." I say 'Wait.*"I like you, Akito." I finally blurt out. Akito looks at me in shock as he blushes. "And I'll chase after you like everyone else. Is that okay with you?" I ask. 'You idiot, what do you mean 'chase after' me. You basically already confessed' he said. "Ah." I said. "Toya, you didn't end up hurting Kohane to tell me this... right? You know how she's like. Even though she says she is okay she's probably still hurt. Akito tells me. "I know. I still need to talk to her again. But my mind was in a rush... wanted to talk to you, and l also wanted to give her space..." I tell him. "Well, I don't want to put a label on it but.. will you... stick around for just a bit longer?" He asks me. "I was
planning to, no matter what your answer was' I tell him.
Ans POV:
I'm walking around and then I run into Kohane. "Kohane?" I say and she turns around and ! see her with tears in her eyes. "Are you crying! What happened!" ask her. "Nothing An-Chan. I've just been broken up with, that's all' she tells me. Toya you big idiot. "How can you smile like that after everything you've been through? I'm annoyed for you at this point." I tell her. "Im okay An-Chan. Lets go find a place to sit? she says as she starts walking to a field and after we both sit down as I glance at her. 'Hehe, it feels like were on a picnic. Maybe we should invite Aoyagi-Kun and Shinonome-Kunn sometime. she says with a smile on her face. "Don't you think it'll be a bit awkward? At least right now. VBS has been so tense these pasts weeks." I tell her. 'But we can still try to be friends, can't we? Um, of course, some people handle these things in different ways... and then I wonder... What these feelings mean for us. The fact that we can all fall for each other like that.. Doesn't that mean we care about each other just that much?' she says to me as I look at her with my tired eyes. "As stupid as we all are... I still don't want to lose Vivid Bad Squad." I say looking down. "Kohane, it's okay to feel hurt by what Toya did. That doesn't make your feelings for him any less valid. So, please... rely on us more." I say while looking at her in the eyes. Her eyes start watering and she says 'But I've always been relying on others... I thought that... for once... I wouldn't be such a burden. as she leans onto me and I hug her trying to comfort her. After a while she says she has to get going because it's getting late. She walks off into the distance and after I leave too. I arrive home and I go to my room and throw myself onto my bed. sigh Why is VBS so tense. I stare at my ceiling just wondering what would happen if VBS disbands. My eyelids start getting heavy so I change into my pajamas and doze off.
