Once the song finished, there was thunderous claps everywhere. The audience were all happy and even went as far as chanting, "ONE MORE TIME, ONE MORE TIME!!!".

Guinevere beamed proudly at the new fans she just garnered. Everyone, even the Emperoro gave them a standing ovation. When she peeked at the man beside her, her cheeks reddened because he was already staring at her with an endearing smile on his face.

It was the smile that he only show to her whenever they were alone together. Now that he confessed, she finally understood his past weird actions.

But she still had a lot of doubts. Why did he fall for a girl like her? Or when did it start? Was it before they met? During their friendship? Or was it after she cut ties with him?

Guinevere felt his sincerity with his sudden confession as well as the rap song, yet she couldn't help doubt everything. She already had her heart broken and she didn't want another heart ache. Maybe he was just confused since she was always with him.

Before the seed of doubt in Guinevere's heart sprout any further, Granger grabbed her hand and gave it a tight grip. Though it was gloved, she could still feel the warmth seeping through and the grip was tight enough to make her feel secure.

With their intertwined hands, the redhead immediately forgot her troubles and her cheeks reddened as a huge smile etched her face. She was brimming with happiness.

"Thank you!!" Guinevere and Granger bowed.

Bruno and Fanny who were emcees for the event rambled on as Guinevere and Granger exited through the backstage stairs. Once Granger finished unplugging his guitar and handing the microphones to Dexter and Claude, he pulled the redhead towards the exit.

His eyes were glued to the spot where the Imperial family was seating, but only the Emperor and Princess Silvanna was left. As Granger thought that the missing Prince Dyrroth was acting very suspiciously, he heard Guinevere start a small chat with him.

"Your guitar is really amazing, Grangey!" Guinevere couldn't help but admire the glow-in-the-dark galaxy design on the black acoustic guitar.

"Just the guitar??"

Granger stopped on his tracks and faced the emerald-eyed girl, his face looke like he was offended so Guinevere was a little bit intimidated.

"W-Well...the guitar's owner is great too..." Guinevere mumbled.

"What? I didn't heard you, my lady."

"Crinkles!! Stop teasing me!"

Guinevere tried pulling her hand as she huffed in embarrassment, but instead of letting go, Granger interlocked their fingers.

"Pfft! I'm sorry, Guini. It's just that you're so cute when I tease you!" Granger chuckled as he engulfed the angry shorter girl in a hug as if pacifying her. A hug was safer than a kiss since their skin couldn't touch, he mentally noted.

"My Guini is too cute~"Granger added as he buried his head on the crook of her neck, inhaling her flowery scent.

"I'm not yours yet, Mister Snotty-Nose!" Guinevere harrumphed.

The young demon hunter immediately straightened at hearing that nickname. His eyes were wide--he was really surprised, Guinevere took note of that.
