Polaris and Sirius~(Jewel Sequel)~KnB~Kise Ryouta

★18.5★ I never gave up on you

When Airi was invited out to the park by Kobori, she was given the camcorder to watch the recorded video. She was crying when the video came to an end. She should have known Kasamatsu Yukio was telling the truth. Yet, she chose to believe in the image sent to her... 

"Airi-chan, do you see? Kasamatsu never betrayed you..." Kobori gave her a packet of tissues for her to dry her tears.

"Senpai... I've said some very horrible words to Yukio-senpai..."

"We know."

"I should have believed him-!"

"Airi-chan, any girl looking at that image would have thought their own boyfriend was cheating. Don't be so hard on yourself..."

"It's not just that..." Airi cried harder, unable to forgive herself.

She dumped him, she ignored him. Yet, he continued to shelter her with his love and looked out for her as her senpai. To be honest, deep in her heart, she knew Kasamatsu would never betray her like that but the distrust crept up and picked at her trust in him and it caused uncertainty. She felt ashamed of herself that she easily believed someone else other than her own boyfriend...

"Airi-chan, don't cry..." 

"How can I not cry? All of you believed in him and told me many times he did not betray me... I chose to believe in my uncertainty instead of him and all of you..." 

"It's okay to be confused. I mean, this isn't something you had control of. Please don't blame yourself." 

"Yukio-senpai must be disappointed..." 

"I wouldn't say that." Kobori smiled at her, "I know if you call him out, he will come straight to you." 

"..." 

"Airi-chan, Kasamatsu loves you so much and you know that for certain." Kobori was right; there's no way Kasamatsu would stop loving her. "Even if there is a crack in the relationship, I know you two would fix it again and again." 

"Senpai..." It makes her happy whenever one of her senpais cheer her up with their words. She wiped her tears away and smiled again. "I need to move my stuff from my friend's place. Can you accompany me?" 

"Sure thing. I see that the front door is fixed again." 

"Yeah. The people fixing it kept wondering how it was kicked down..." 

"Yukine is a very powerful girl... I hope she doesn't use her techniques on Kise!" 

"I am sure Ryouta can take it..." 

Kasamatsu opened the door to Airi's apartment. He was glad the front door's fixed again. He decided to come back here again right after hearing the news that it was fixed again. He wished the whole rift between Airi and himself can be fixed like this front door. It will probably take Airi a while to forgive him again. 

"I'm home." Kasamatsu said to no one.

He put his stuff aside and went to Airi's bedroom. He turned the lights on and sat on her bed. They sleep together, they do lewd stuff together, they sometimes do nothing but talk for a very long time before dozing off.

He already knew she's the one for him only; it will be a very long time before he can forget about her.

"Kobori-senpai, thank you for walking me back and forth from apartments. Will you be fine on your own?" Airi asked him. 

"Don't worry about me being kidnapped, Airi-chan. It will become a 2 man's job!"
