After New years things became more obvious....
Everyone could tell what was going on.
In fact even the soon to be couple knew about it....although...they only knew about their own feelings.
Both stumbled upon whether or not they were liked by the other.
Kazehaya showed it a bit more than Sawako did.....but the others could really see how the situation was coming along.
There just love idiots ~ 3
They were at a park...it was lonely and peaceful....barely anyone was there since the weather was chilly enough to catch a cold.
The two played with Maru.
Maru licked Sawako's face, and she giggled a cute.......'different' giggle...that somewhat left a charming echo in Kazehaya's head.
That was the first time he heard her laugh like that.....
C-cute!
His face grew red and as expected he hid his face in between his knees in embarrassment.
"Eh?" She said in her quick confused tone with slow face structures a bit stiff.
"Ahh.....don't look at me!" he turned his head to face away.
".......Ka-"
Maru-chan jumped out of Sawako's reach and licked the boy's face.
"H-Hey!" He shouted playful, with his face still warm.
The once so lonely girl chuckled quietly to herself.
He smiled when he saw her laugh, his smile gave a sense of adoration it said 'How sweet'
She slowly looked up at him and realized he was still facing her....the smile faded away......she was sad when it did.
But what was at first an unknown gaze became an awkward unconcious staring contest.
The strange part was that the embarressment was unbearable, but neither could take their eyes off eachother.
Both their faces turned red......
They both looked so serious...and freaked out.
The wind blew intensly....so suddenly, it blew her way..... she reacted so quickly, she grabed the closest thing to her with a squeak.
She wrapped around him so suddenly, he was extremely got off gaurd, and his face was tomato red while his eyes became widened.
"K-K-K-uronuma!" He splurred out in complete shock.
"Ah! I-I'm sorry!" She said so nervously, with her voice cracking she dragged her self away and as the wind came Kazehaya pulled her back.
"K-Kazehaya?" The girl spoke confused.
He rested his head on hers, while she was burried in his upper torso.
Sure, his face was warm.....his whole body was warm, and although he hugged her because of the weather...the main reason was selfish.
Sawako.......I ......love you.
He thought to himself, and smirked.
W-why is he hugging me.....?
I want to talk to her about it....but what if it's obvious.......should I word it in simple terms that way she won't get the wrong idea?
"Um Kuronuma?"
"Yes?" She murmed burried in his chest.
He smells nice.
"Have you ever liked anyone more than a close friend."
There was a dead silence.
The tension was slowly growing.
She somewhat knew what he ment but wanted to be sure.
"Like.....romantic feelings?"
He flinched, hearing her say that made him warmer.
"Y-Yes!"
She paused and Kazehaya's shy face became worrysome, afraid his first love wouldn't feel the same.
"......Yes...."
That one simple word echoed in his head like it would be the last thing he heard.
He hugged her tighter.
"Do you?" She looked up with an innocent smile.
"..........yes......."
She smiled, she didn't care if it wasn't her at the moment, just the thought of him liking someone more than a friend....made her respect him more than before.
He chuckled.
"Um....I can't breath." she mumbled.
"Uh! I-I'm sorry!!!!!!" He let go quickly.
Did I just ruin a good moment?
"I just....." He looked to the side and his cheeks were pink.
Her face changed into a simple smile while looked down.
She slowly leaned on his shoulder, as her body faced forward....she was right where she wanted to be.....right by his side.
"It's ok."
