Pain lasts Longer than love (Naegami)

Chapter 13

Byakuya's POV

I felt my heart beating as I walked down the hallway. I don't really want to admit it but, I'm nervous. I have to confess before Sayaka does anyway.

The last bell had just rang and I was making my way up to the rooftop. I hope Makoto remebered. What if he doesn't accept my confession? He's been through so much this past month...is this going to be to much for him to handle...?

No I must not think like this. If I don't confess now Sayaka will.
I took a deep breath and went up the stairway to the rooftop.

Makoto stood there staring out at the sky.
I walked over to him and tapped his shoulder. He turned around and smiled.
"Hi Byakuya!"
I looked into his eyes. There really pretty.
"I need to tell you something Makoto..."
"What is it?"
I looked away from him. I haven't even planned out how I was going to confess! Great job...now you going to make a fool of yourself.

Without thinking, I forcefully grabbed his shoulders. "Makoto." I said with a stern voice.
Makoto looked terrified and nervous.
I took another deep breath.

"I love you Makoto."

Makoto stared at me in shock and confusion. Shit, I messed up. That was too hard on him...
I let go of his shoulders.
"It's ok if you don't like me back, I just had to get it off my chest that's all."

I was about to walk away, when I heard Makoto speak up.
"That's not true Byakuya!" He shouted
"I-I like you too..."

I looked back at him. He does?! I smiled at him. Makoto was staring at the ground not really knowing what to do.

"Makoto..." I started.

Before he could respond. I pulled him in and kissed him.

It wasn't passionate. It was short and quick.
It was still probably the best thing I had done in my life. "Byakuya... why did you... kiss me?"
"Did you not listen to what I said?"
Makoto shook his head. "I heard."
"Then there's you answer."
He smiled at me and hugged me. We stayed like that for awhile, and then parted ways.

Little did we know that someone was watching us...
