Hey, guys! I decided to write such a fanfic thanks to some GillxPeach fanfiction and the song Hatsukoi no Ehon (originally by Hatsune Miku) but the one I based this on is the version by 96Neko and Halyosy. Don't worry, Gill's POV is coming.

Ages: Peach in the beginning is 13 and Gill is 14.

Hope you like my very first Finding Nemo fanfic!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Finding Nemo nor do I own Hatsukoi no Ehon.

I was thirteen when I first had a liking for you. You were hanging out with Bubbles in the hallway.

"Hey, isn't that the pink-haired girl you talked about yesterday? She's really cute!" He asked as he pointed a finger at me.

You put your arm around his neck o stop him from talking. "Hush up, Bubbles! She'll hear you!"

Deb, who was there, tried to calm the both of you down because you were pretty noisy. I giggled, along with Deb who was with me.

When I went to my classroom, I saw that the chalkboard said, "Gill + Peach = spring couple!" I blushed like crazy! Then I heard your voice.

"Who wrote this?!" You looked at me. "W-was it you, Peach?"

I couldn't believe someone would write such a thing in my classroom! I was speechless! But the real reason why I couldn't speak was because you were actually talking to me!

You erased the writings on the chalkboard as you bluntly reassured me, "Don't worry."

"Y-yeah." I replied nervously.

After school, we hung out at the park and we sat at a bench.

"D-do you like..." I gulped. "...anyone?"

You replied in a deadpan way, "Yeah."

"Ah, I see." I frowned and looked away.

"And you?" You asked.

I said as I turned to you, "Y-yeah."

You looked away from me. "I see."

I was in my room, thinking of something. I like you I thought as I lay down on my bed. "Do you like me back?" I asked myself. I was just a positive-thinking coward...

Even now, I remeber this page, the one from that time. It was our first love!

It's a secret.

About five years have passed and we were now locked up somewhere. But we never forgot anything about that time. We sat next to each other all the time and we always smiled as we were reminiscing that time.

I decided to close the book of that beautiful love story and locked it. I let out a sigh as I lay on my bed, away from that place, away from the school, away from you.

If only I had the courage to cross those ten centimeters...
