Circus (Army x Aloha, OLD)

Notebook of Confessions

((Forewarning: In my stories, I don't treat Army like the...um...*ahem* anyway and I don't have Aloha alway's being so overconfident or have a big ego. They are more like equals but Army is not afraid to take charge. ;3  I'm not sorry, Author-Chan <3 --))

Army held my notebook, open, in his hands. I felt my face flush and I instinctively rushed forward to grab it, he dodges me. "I already read it, Aloha!" He says. 

"G-Give it back!" I whine to him. Army stops and I take my notebook but he was staring at me. "Ah, w-what is it?" I ask him. Act like nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong, Aloha. He just didn't invade your personal private life because you left your notebook out or anything. He doesn't know your deepest darkest secret ever. Oh my cod...I'm going to die. 

"I- I can explain!" I lie to him and myself. EXPLAIN WHAT!? THE FACT THAT I AM GAY AS HELL? FOR HIM!? Oh my cod, did I really just admit that to myself? 

"Aloha...you don't have to explain anything..." He says. 

"I don't want you to hate me!" I blurt, closing my eyes and biting my lip. I didn't want to see his reaction...I don't want to see it. He pulls me over to the couch, and makes me sit down across from him. 

"Open your eyes, Aloha." He tells me. I shake my head. 

"Nope, I'm good~!" I chirp to him, playfully. Really on the inside I was dying. 

"Aloha." He warns, I slowly opened my eyes to look at him. "I'm not mad. See?" He smiles at me. "I'm not mad at you...why would I be?" 

"I...I dunno," I admit shyly. Why is it I'm only ever shy around him? 

"Aloha, I wanted to come here to talk to you about your reaction earlier...I was scared you didn't like me so I wanted to make sure you were okay and my curiosity got the best of me. I'm truly sorry for going through your things, Aloha, but I...I had to know if you hated me." He explains. Then, he hugs me. "I'm sorry." He says. 

I was stiff at first but slowly relax and hug him back. "I don't know why you're sorry, I was the dumbass who left it out." 

He lets go of me and looks me in the eyes. "Aloha...is it true what you said in your notebook?" He asks. I glance down at the floor. Nope, no chickening out now. He already knows, you can't run away... I sighed. 

"Um, yes," I admit. "But, of course, I didn't expect anyone to fall for me~." I tease, winking at him. He gets all flustered then. 

"A-Aloha!" He complains. 

"You sure you don't hate me?" I ask, tilting my head and waiting for him to respond. 

Army's POV 

"You sure you don't hate me?" He asks, tilting his head and waiting for me to respond. 

He looked so...cute...when doing that...

"Hate you? No, I don't hate you...I...I..." I paused, thinking of how to phrase it. "I like-like you." I finally blurt, my face was hot and I could see blush creeping onto his face. He looked away from me, trying to hide his face. Don't do that...I don't want you to hide... "I love you." I say again, more sure of myself this time. He blushes madly. My face was hot and I was panicking...

"I- I love you too..." He whispers. I hug him again, staring at his eyes. He finally looks back to me. "I...I'm actually not mad you found my notebook..." He says, and he rests his head on my shoulder. I smile to myself. 

"I'm glad I did..." I tell him. 

"Me too." 

"I have a question for you, Aloha."
