'This is so awkward...'

It's been hours since Mavis left. She said she needed some time to herself. So she left me and Yuri, by the lake, in a very awkward silence. But I needed to ask him. I needed to find out.

"Y...Yuri..."

He looked at me, "hm..."

"Did...," I looked away, "nevermind."

"No, no," he knelt down in front of me, "tell me. You want to ask me something. What is it?"

I took a deep breath before looking him in the eye, "did you hear what I said?"

He gave me a confused look, "huh?"

"You said before that you heard my voice when you were under the control of the Tenrou Jade, but did you hear what I said?"

He smiled, "I didn't know how I was going to bring it up," he took my hands into his, "but yes, I did. And I think your words broke through because for a split second, I felt like I was in control."

"How did my words break through?"

Yuri shrugged, "maybe it's because I love you."

I froze, "w...what did you say?"

He chuckled, "you're really slow sometimes. I said, I lov...."

I cut him off with a kiss. He kissed me back smiling. We parted.

"You know the guy in the relationship is suppose to kiss the girl, right," he smirked.

I tilted my head smiling, "well, you were being a little slow, but you could try and redeem yourself."

He smiled, "yeah?"

I giggled, "oh yeah."

He leaned in and kissed me passionately. He was definitely experienced.

He pulled away, "so I guess you're my girlfriend now."

"Actually, Dr. Dreyar, I don't recall hearing a question," I teased.

He sighed dramatically, "Yuki, will you please become my girlfriend? I promise to protect you with my life! Please be mine!"

I snorted, "you're such a dork. A simple question would've sufficed."

"You deserve better than simple," he grinned, "your answer?"

I smiled, "yes, Yuri, I will be happy to be your girlfriend."

Suddenly Yuri started jumping up and down cheering.

I shook my head playfully, 'my boyfriend is such a dork, but I love him anyway.'

He finally stopped, "we need to get back to the hotel. The guys are probably wondering where we are."

I rolled my eyes, "yeah right. You just want to rub the fact that you have a girlfriend now and they don't in their faces."
