Act XIX

Kageyama's POV

"I think... I think I... I love you."

Love..

So that was the unexplainable feeling that resided in me when I stared at her, when I consoled her, when I caught her when she fell, when I wanted her to live, when I didn't want her to go in battle, when I missed the times I fought with her, when I held her in my arms and whispered words of consolation to make her feel better.

The feeling that welled up inside me when I was with her.

That was why I wanted to protect her. That was why my heart raced at impossible speeds. That was why I'm acting way out of character. That was why I'm blushing uncontrollably right now.

I because I fell in love with her.

I fell in love with the way she would say her opinion and prove her point. I fell in love with the way she would fight with me and win. I fell in love with the way she would constantly persuade me to fight the rebels and Aoba Johsai. I fell in love with her perseverance.

I fell in love with those vibrant violet irises that beckon me to her.

I swear, my heart's going to explode right now.

"You're making me all twisted inside." I mumbled.

How I wanted to run my hands through her silken hair. How I wanted to whisper words of love in her ear. How I wanted to hold her close, and forget all the things happening in the cruelty of this world. How I wanted to kiss her lips softly and constantly remind her of my love.

It's true, what they say.

The more you hate, the more you love.

Yet, this love is merely unrequited.

And impossible for it to become reality.

She's a Mahika.

I'm a Maharlika.

We are divided by an invisible emmity called Magic.

I say to my heart not to love her, but it was a rebel.

The more I say not to fall for her, the more I fell in love with her.
