I stood up, trying to keep my cool. It's just twenty minutes, just twenty minutes. That was all that rang through my head.

Just Ai and I fit into the small, neat closet, me pressed up against him. Just twe-twenty m-minutes. J-just-

"_________," he said.

And I just lost my thought all at once, my brain forcing me to concentrate at the problem at hand.

"H-hai, Ai-kun?" I asked.

"You're very red. Daijoubu ka?"

"H-hai!" I said quickly. "Daijoubu!"

"Ne, __________." He said. "I have a few questions."

"Shoot away." I said.

"Alright, than, can you tell me how to figure out if I like a girl?"

"Ano... Ai-kun... Well, let's just say that you start dressing really nice, and your heart starts feeling weird. And... You want to be with her all the time."

"Hmm... And how do I know if she likes me?"

"Well... I'll use myself as an example," Oh geez, I can't stop talking. "I start stuttering when I'm in an uncomfortable situation with you. And, if I'm very close to you, I turn very red, but, not from fever. And when you stare at me long enough I'll blush darker and, turn away slightly."

I looked at him to see if he caught on. Instead, I found him staring me down. Blushing, I turned away,

"Ahh, I see." He said with a small smile.

He's teasing me, he doesn't feel that way about me! I thought.

"_______, look at me." He said.

I looked at him, and started blushing.

"Do you, perhaps, like me?" He asked.

I kept quiet. "And if I do?" I asked quietly.

"Then, I'll love you, too." He said, hugging me closer.

"A-Ai-kun?!" I cried silently.

He kissed me. I wasn't ready for that! I took an accidental step back, stumbling on a pair of shoes that was on the floor. We fell to floor with a loud thud.

The door opened, and light flooded in. Rei-chan and the others were standing there with teasing grins. "Ai-Ai, you bad, bad boy." Rei-chan said.

"_________, you naught, naught, ecchi." Ranmaru said.

"Iya!" Ai and I said at the same time. "It's not like that!"

But, they just kept teasing us.

The game stopped after that. It was like 12:45 a.m. And the boys vowed to keep our relationship a secret

I quietly closed the door to my room. (Bestie name) was sleeping peacefully still. And I slid down the door, and smiled very, very stupidly. Love, I thought. This is my first love. And I had my first kiss! Oh, kami-sama, everything is moving so fast!
