Sakuno's POV

The sun was shining brightly that it brought me to consciousness. When I opened my eyes, sense of panic aroused over me. My heart was pounding really fast.

"R-Ryoma-kun" I shivered as I said his name. He's on the other room. Ooohhh. I might take a peek later. Teehee.

"Sakuno! Time to wake up! Wake Ryoma up! I'm late so I'm going to leave now. Take care" I can hear grandma outside the door. Then I heard a dash and went out the door only to see that she was gone.

Yeah, it's time to wake up. Time to wake Ryoma up. Huh? Did I hear that right? I'll be the one to wake him up? Hmmm. I'll take a bath first.

After a few minutes….

DONE! After taking bath, I fixed my hair into a braid and went in front of Ryoma's room. I knocked gently but he doesn't seem to hear me so I went in.

"G-Good Morning R-Ryoma-kun" It looks like the words that I said was only a whisper. Well, I don't want to wake him up yet. I'll give myself five minutes. Just 5 to look at him while sleeping. My only chance. I took a step forward to look at him for just one last chance but I tripped all the way to the bed. Credits to me being a klutz. Ugh. What will he think I'm doing? Taking chances? PANIC!

But then he hugged me and said, "Ryuzaki, I'll make you the happiest girl in the world. Just say you love me" I felt my cheeks turned into red with what he said.

"A-Ano… R-R-Ryoma-K-Kun" He was still holding me. So I shake him a bit. Then he woke up.

"What's your answer?" He asked and let go. We both sit on the bed.

"H-huh?" I pretended not to hear. Act innocent Sakuno! I can do this.

"I've already said it" He was being stubborn.

"I…I" I can't continue what I'm saying because tears were flowing through my eyes.

"Hey! Why are you crying? Did I say something wrong?" He asked with concern.

"N-no. I-I'm just happy… If you're l-lying now, this is the worst thing you've ever s-said to trick me" I can't help but stutter.

Ryoma hugged me until I stopped crying. It felt like he was comforting me even though he didn't say a word. He just stayed by my side.

"Don't worry, I'm never going to hurt you" His words were reassuring that I believed it.

"Go prepare now, I'll cook a breakfast for us" I said shyly but I didn't stutter. I guess I'm improving.

We look like we're newly wed couples. Teehee

After eating breakfast, we went to school together. I'm really happy.
