I'm stuffing ramens in my mouth with my chopsticks. Damn, this tastes so delicious!

Sensei is also eating with his back facing me. He told me if we want to eat together, it'll have to be like this. I had to agree to that, though.

Once I've finished the ramens, I set my plate down and grin. Getting up slowly, I sneak towards Sensei to see him. I tiptoe quietly careful not to let him know. I'm so gonna get him this time!

But I was wrong when two shurikens come flying towards me. I react fast and dodge the stars. They stick to the wall behind me.

"Don't even think about it" he says, still eating his ramens.

I gulp and clench my fists in frustration. "I could've died! Why did you throw them like that?!"

"Cause I'm aware that my foolish student is fast enough to dodge"

"Who are you calling foolish?!"

"You, precisely"

I grit my teeth and turn away. Why am I even trying, though? I'll get to see his face soon enough.

"So... uh, about what I said this morning..."

"Heh, who knew you were so desperate to kiss me?"  He finishes his food.

"I-It's not like that! I just want to see your face, that's all..."

"Oh. Right, I think there's more to it, though. I'm sure you've thought about it too, Kaoru"

"Of course not! There's nothing more of it!"

"You can lie to others, but not to yourself. It's not good to lie, either" he sets his plate down and walks to the bathroom.

I sit down on the ground and huff. My only intention is to see his face, that is all. Nothing more to it. Nothing at all. He got it all wrong, yeah, that's right, he's definitely wrong.

Sensei come back out and heads to the kitchen. I just sit there and wait like a damn livestock.

About 10 minutes later, he appears again.

"Can we just do it now? I wanna get this over with"

He chuckles. "Why so desperate?"

"Shut up!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsundere. Come here"

I get up and walk to him. He grabs my hands and drag me outside.

"Hey... where are we going?!"

"Just follow me" he says.

I can't see the moon tonight. Where did it go? Oh, new moon in the the lunar cycle? Damn, I don't really know much seeing as I've never paid attention during class...

Sensei leads my into the forest where it's really dark. I can't see in the dim. Oh, now I know what he's planning.

Dear moon, why tonight?

Some moonlight could help. But now...

He pins me to a tree and stare into my eyes. His forest green eyes glow in the dark. Is this guy a cat or something?

I can't see clearly at all. I can't see properly. All I know is sensei is pulling down his mask slowly. My eyes try to adjust and see his face since he's revealing it. But damn! My eyes suck in the dark!
