Boyfriend Or Bestfriend?

One-Shot

Me and Daiki are neighbours since   we're in junior high school, until now, college. We're not so close until we've been put in the same class for 3 years straight in high school. Because of that, we often go home together. On the way home, we talk much which make us realize we could be bestfriends. Because of our closeness, many people think we're dating but honestly no. I didn't have sort of feelings for her until... that night.

It's prom night and i asked daiki to be my prom which she gladly accepted. One thing i never realize, daiki never apply make up or anything on her face whenever she goes out. But because it's prom, she should apply some make up. And once i saw her face, my heart stop beating. She looks stunning with sparkling dress and natural make up. It's so natural and not the heavy one but she looks so beautiful that night. And i realize, i fell head over heals to her. I'm nervous the whole time because of her beauty. I almost get heart attack whenever she giggles. She's a real angel that night.

We got into the same university but different major. Fortunately, our schedule match so i drive her to college and home everyday. It happened for half year. But because our home is far from college, our parents decided to buy us apartment. No, we're not in one apartment but we live side by side. But of course, i spent most of my time in Daiki's apartment. I just use my apartment to take a bath and sleep. To be honest, i give half of my expanses for Daiki so she'll cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner for me.

It has been a year we live like that and it has been a year too i have this feelings for Daiki. I don't make any progress. I just don't know how. It's my own bestfriend, not just classmate or stranger. If i lose her because she doesn't have the same feelings for me, my life ends. I'm sure we can't back to the way we used to be.

But thinking about it... Daiki is cute. I heard some guys in her faculty take a liking on her. If i don't confess my feelings now, someone will take her from me. No. I never want that to happen! Whether it's a best decision or not, i should tell her my feelings... tomorrow. I'm not ready now. Give me time to prepare my heart for the worst broken heart ever.

I didn't come in the morning because i woke up late and you know because of what. It's already 11 am when i come to her room. And it's time to confess. Faster will be better.

"Yuya! You come in the right time. I wanna tell you something!" she beams once i entered her apartment.

"What's that?" I asked nervously as i sit on the sofa.

"I got a boyfriend!" She confesses with a bright smile.

"E-eh?" Please God tell me i heard it wrong.

"I have a boyfriend now Yuya. After 19 years of waiting, finally the right one came to me" She talks happily while serving our lunch on the dining table.

I can't say anything. I'm silent for maybe 15 minutes, trying to digest what i just heard. No. It can't be true. Who is that guy? I wanna strangle him to death.

"Yuya? Let's eat lunch. I'm sure you didn't eat breakfast before" Daiki interrupted my plan to kill that guy. I nod to her and eat lunch with her, not wanting to know about her boyfriend yet.

I think nothing change much just because she has boyfriend. I mean, i still drive her to college because her boyfriend doesn't have car or such. But there's someone who's waiting for her in the gate.

"Yuya, i wanna introduce my boyfriend to you. Would you mind?" She asked cutely. How can i refuse if you asked like that?!

"So-sounds good" I forced a smile and get out of the car to meet him.
