Info-chan x Rival-chan: That One Day

Part 5- Finally, That One Day

As the moment Rival-chan heard those word, her mouth went a little ajar. She never felt that special before. She could not process in her mind what she just heard. Stuttering like a broken machine, she stares at Info-chan. Info-chan stares back with a calming face.

"I... Uh.. I- " Rival stuttered.

"You..?"

"I- thank you so much," Rival blushed.

Info-chan glared and turned around again, reaching her pocket. She then grabbed Rival's hand like a flash of lightning and dropped something onto her palm.

"Here," Info said.

"A key.. which means-"

"Yes, it's the key of the clubroom."

"Why are you giving me this? I get that it is because I hide here from now on.. But.. I don't deserve to get a spare key.." Rival argued.

"It is so that you can lock the door everytime you enter; no one else can open the door," Info paused, "besides, it's just you and me- it gets really lonely here anyways being alone and I don't think "hide" is the right word here.. It's "belong."

"Huh?"

"it's because you belong to m- this place, I guess."

Tears suddenly rolled down on Rival's cheeks as she could not give a respond. What Info said was too obliging to her heart that she just palliated. Her heart could not stop racing as if it was a broken scale.

"Help me.." She cried.

"Hm?" Info stared.

"My heart keeps racing.. I want to hold your hand but I feel like I won't be able to. What is this? this is something I could not express in words.. Somehow it feels special, soothing and it gives me happiness but at the same time it hurts like thousand thorns thrusted into my heart.. I can't- "

Info took a hold of Rival's hand and Rival looked at her in the eye. Rival shivered slightly.

"I could feel your hand shivering and you trembling.. What am I saying.." Info giggled slightly, "Both means the same and so-"

Info moved the hand she held and put it on her chest. Rival got surprised as she felt the intense pulse of Info's heart. It most likely like how fast her heartbeat is. She slightly got flustered.

"I could still feel your hand shivering and you trembling.. same thing.. and so, my heart is racing, your heart is racing.. Same thing and with that, we both feel the same thing."

Rival is in wide shock. She searched a word to use to express but she knows she could not top on what Info just said. It carved into her mind. She closed her eyes and looked down, putting away the key to her pocket, she put her hand on top of Info's hand that's holding her other hand, smiling. Info slightly smiled back and calmly leaned closer.

Rival leaned her head onto Info's chest while Info immediately leaned her head on top of Rival's head.

"Finally, that one day... which is today, I fell in love."
