Dug . . . dug . . . dug . . .

Each step I took, my heart beats faster. Now, I tried my best to move my legs that felt really heavy to walk to the school's rooftop. Today at fifth period I got email from Nico-senpai, she wanted to meet me before we are going to the shrine for μ's practice.

Dug . . . dug . . . dug . . .

My heart beats became and became faster like it would come out from my body. When I noticed it, now I'm standing in front of the rooftop door. Even now, I could hear my heart beats and my legs also trembling. Why just met Nico-senpai alone made me crazy like this?

After I took my breath to calm me down, I decided to open the door. The wind swaying slowly blows my hair. After I blinked my eyes few times because the sunlight, I saw someone figure who looking to the school ground with her back facing me. She has slim and petite body, her beautiful long black hair tied into twintail with red ribbons.

"Sorry for the waiting Senpai", hearing my voice that figure turned around to facing me. Her face looked flustered, her small lips trembling like want to say something but just cannot say it.

After a moment, she begins to speak, "Oh, you have came Maki".

"Do you need something Senpai?" I don't know, but I thought that my voice became trembling.

"Can I ask you something?"

"What is that?" I asked back.

"Errmm . . ." her face became redder and her gesture looks like in unpleasant manner. "Ple . . . ple . . . ple . . ." her small lip mumbled about something. But I can't hear her mumbling after all.

She took a breath, then with raising her voice she said, "Please go out with me!"

Dug . . . dug . . . dug . . .

My heart really want to came off from my body when hearing her words. Then the wind blows again, make Nico-senpai twintail dancing.

"Wha . . . wha . . . what are you saying Senpai?"

"Please go out with me . . .! I can't stop this feeling again", looked at me with teary eyes she repeated her words.

I'm speechless.

"I can't stop this feeling again. Every night I dreamed about you. Every day I can't stop thinking about you, your smile, your anger, all everything about you, even once", she made confession.

"So, please go out with me!" tears falling from her eyes.

I wiped her tears in her cheek with my finger, ". . . Senpai . . .", It still unbelievable that our feelings are mutual.

I took a breath to calmed down myself again. "With pleasure, I'll go out with you, because . . . because my love for you won't lose from how much you loving me", I smiled, but my cheeks felt warm yet wet. I cried.

. . .

In the way to the shrine we walked side by side holding hands. I felt Nico-senpai warmth from her tiny hand. Now, she is my girlfriend, just think about it made me really embarrassed.

We stopped in front of stairs to the shrine. "About our relationship, what will we told to our friends?" I asked Nico-senpai.

"Maybe we need to keep secret about it".

"Ehee, what the secret you two talk about?" suddenly someone voice can be heard from behind.

I turn around, "Nozomi-senpai!", with reflex I and Nico-senpai released our holding hands. There's Nozomi-senpai with her miko outfit.

"Hmm, sound so suspicious, what the secret again?"

"Secret is secret. Alright, let's go Maki we can't make them to waiting. And Nozomi why you wearing that outfit?" asked Nico-senpai while walking up the stairs.

"I just want to wear it, can't I?" Nozomi-senpai took steps following Nico-senpai.

Then both of them stopped. "Hey, Maki why you still standing like statue, let's go!" Nico-senpai offered her hands. I accept it gladly, "Ah, sorry". Then we are walking up to the shrine together.
