God, Rantarou liked it better when Kokichi actually liked him. He never realized this until now, but his face would get red even from something as simple as a hug. Honestly, any sort of physical contact would fluster him. But now he just goes along with it.

Rantarou came up with a conclusion. He likes Kokichi.
But now, ever since the dumb thing he said about him liking girls, they've been friends like old times. Maybe Kokichi did still like him and he was just really really really good at hiding it. He was a liar after all.

Rantarou kept thinking of possibilities while walking alongside Kokichi. They always walked to school together.

"Whatcha thinking about?" Kokichi asked, turning Rantarou's attention towards him. "Oh, nothing." He replied, smiling.

"Doesn't seem like nothing."

"Don't worry about it."

"If you tell me not to worry I'll worry more!"

"It's none of your business."

"Yet my suspicion will eat you up inside and you'll have to tell me."

Rantarou sighed. This is how their usual conversations went.

"Dammit. I like you, okay Kokichi? Is that what you wanted to hear? I've liked you around the same time you liked me. I was just being stupid and didn't want to tell you at the time. I like girls and guys, I just didn't get it."

Rantarou spilled his guts out for him. He said what he thought, no strings attached. They stopped walking for a short while. Kokichi didn't respond for a while.

"Rantarou I'm-" He sighed mid-sentence. Kokichi looked down to the ground as if he were trying to find the words he was looking for.

"I'm sorry."

Rantarou looked at him. He tilted his head, he didn't do anything wrong, did he? "For what."

Kokichi gulped.

"I have a boyfriend."
