Kiku closed the shoujo manga in his hands, sighed and moved to put the volume back into its place in the shelf.

Why couldn't those love scenes happen in real life? Or rather why couldn't they happen to him?

"I want to fall in love.", he mumbled as he gently traced the backs of the shoujo manga series he was currently interested in.

"Really when will my love story begin?"

Little did he know that love would be just around the corner as the dorbell rang and mother earth send him his own little matchmaker.

A the time Kiku opened his front door he was more than surprised to find the youngest son of his next-door-neighbours also known as Peter Kirkland, in front of his apartement.

"Hello Peter-kun. What are you doing here?"

"Hello Kiku! Uh... I..uh...wanted to ask you something...May i come in?"

"Sure."

The two were sitting opposite of each other at Kiku's kotatsu, each with a cup of tea in hand and a plate of cookies between them.

There was an uncomfortable silence between them as the kid fidgetted under the older ones gaze.

Kiku took a sip of his tea before placing his cup back on the table.

"So...what do you want to ask me, Peter-kun?"

Peter took a moment to aswer Kiku's question, but when he did the older one really wished he'd never asked.

"Kiku? Would you please marry my brother?"
