Tito was astonished by Alice's behavior towards him the next day, she was so cold with him, she didn't glance in his direction while talking to him, and it was as if the sight of his face disgusts her. Never the less, there was only one simple explanation for her behavior, Kai. Now he was positive that something is going on between Alice and Kai Hiwatari, but what could it be? Ever since the day he and Souna had encountered the fight with Hiwatari and Alice was always absent minded, never in the mood to go out, or talk to anyone, she was acting as cold as a stone. And it was driving Tito made, she was his best friend and never in her life had she considered hiding anything from him, but why now? It was all because of Hiwatari and he knew it, and he was going to do something about it, he thought to himself as someone took a seat next to him on the stairs of the baseball field.

Never the less, Tito was so deep in thoughts that Angela kept on starring at him for the past 10 minutes, and he didn't glance in hr direction, she was getting bored of waiting for him to notice her there, so finally she cleared her throat, and Tito jumped form his seat surprised at the sound, but when he noticed Angela there alone, his mind blocked every thought that ever existed to concentrate on her. She was wearing green today, a green dress and her form was so...visible, he thought, he could make out her thighs as she sat there next to him, and she was looking exceptionally gorgeous today. He wanted to touch her, but he couldn't lay a hand on her, because no matter what, he had promised his best friend Max that he would take care of Angela, and a guy with a rake hell reputation like him, is hard to believe that he had fell in love, and that he had quit his wicked ways against chicks. Angela looked away as her hands descended downwards to play with her dress and said:" so, what's on your mind? I see that you've been quit busy that you didn't even notice that I was here." Angela was smiling, and her eyes were shining reflecting the color of honey, and by god it was hard to make out a sentence in her presence, but after all what was he to tell her? He couldn't tell her that he was upset because his best friend was ignoring him, for he knows that he's going to sound stupid and lame. So he started to talk trying to think if his basketball championship that will be taking place after a month and a half:" well… you know that the championship starts after a while and that I need to train…and well I have to train hard with determination…but I'm afraid to let down my team." Tito was really nervous about the champion ship, and he was the captain of "The Tigers", and so he has to lead them, and it was a tough responsibility. Angela looked in Tito's face as sympathy surged through her, and her hand moved to rest over Tito's. She couldn't reply to what he had said except by one thing:" I trust you, and I know that you'll take over the first place in the championship, I believe in you." Angela was smiling as every word left her mouth, and she had meant every word she had said.

Tito was speechless, for she was the first girl after his best friends Souna and Alice to tell him such a thing. And she wasn't just any girl; she was the captive of his heart! Tito couldn't hold himself then, he wanted to hold her, to touch her desperately, and yes he has promised Max however, he hadn't expected himself to be that weak, he was as weak as an innocent baby who cries when ever he needs anything because he couldn't speak, and right now Tito could speak, he could reply to Angela's words except by one thing. His hands settled on her shoulders and he pulled her close to him, so close that their noses touched and starred in her eyes, trying to keep control over himself, because he shouldn't kiss her no matter how much he wanted to and needed to, he had promised his friend and he was going to keep his promise, so he closed his eyes and moved his head away, trying to erase the picture of her face, but her scent keeps on reminding him of their first and only kiss, and by god it was taking him all that he had to back off. Tito spoke then, because he had to put an end to this so he said:" I can't!" his eyes were closed shut and his was greeting his teeth, he had slide his hands away from her shoulders and gathered his fingers in to fists, it was hard to keep control!

Angela noticed Tito's clenched hands and shut eyes as the words exited his mouth, she starred at him, and then she raised her hand to rest it on his face as she spoke:" why can't you? What's wrong?" Tito couldn't' seem to think but of what he had told Max ever since his sister started going to the school:" I promise to protect your sister as if I were you, dear friend." He hasn't forgotten his word for her bro and he wasn't about to break it, but by god her hand was now on his face and he couldn't take it, it was as if her hand was burning his face, so he moved it away quickly and said :" because I've promised your brother to protect as if I were him, and I can't…" he trailed off as he spoke:" and I can't break my word no matter how much I want to." Tito was on his legs now, giving her his back. Angela was stunned by Tito's words, for she had expected anything but this, he was trying to… keep his word for her brother. Angela stood up and walked to stand facing Tito, and she could see how hard it was for him to stay away from her, and it was tearing her heart in to pieces, because she wanted this guy, she has feelings for him, ever since she had met him, she had spent sleepless nights thinking of him, and trying to imagine how will it feel to be kissed and hugged by him, and when the dream finally comes true, comes this stupid promise to keep her away from him! Well she is a kid no longer, and she isn't about to let her brother ruin her dream to be with the guy she ever dreamed of, so she closed the distance between her and Tito, planted her hands on his face and pulled him in to a passionate kiss, it was her second kiss, and although she doesn't know anything concerning kissing and those stuff, she let her mouth moves against his and left it all to her passion, yes her passion controlled her now, and she cared for nothing, to hell with everyone, she wanted this guy and she was going to get him.

The kiss was so deep that Tito couldn't hold his hands away from her, and so he pulled Angela closer to him, deepening the kiss, he couldn't seem to have enough of her, she was like a drug to him, he wanted more, and by god he was ready to take her here, on the stairs of the baseball playground, he desired her desperately and now that she was his for a little while, he wasn't about to let go of her, he is going to take advantage of every minute to explore her even more, so his hands traveled their way up and down her dress, disoriented, he wanted to touch her everywhere, he didn't want anything between them, he wanted nothing that would keep his body from caressing hers. And so now, he was on top of her untying her dress, when they heard someone clearing his throat. And at that moment both of them froze, Tito raised his head to see who was it, and he wasn't prepared for the coming surprise…
