Excel's POV
"Ready to go?" I asked Nepgear as I opened the door.
"Thank you."
I let Nepgear go first and then closed the door behind us, once we stepped down the stairs she grabbed my hand and held it.
I gave her a look.
"Oh sorry…It's just that you and Uni…" she said moving her hand.
"It's fine." I said taking her hand again.
We walked down the street toward a few dunes that we were going to watch the fireworks on. As me walked Nepgear leaned into me, no longer holding my hand, she was holding my whole arm. She was staying close, as if to say that backing away or letting go would cause her pain.
I didn't mind, feeling her head on my shoulder was nice. Nepgear looked so happy, I was happy too.
"This spot looks good." I said.
"Yeah." Nepgear said.
The two of us sat down, Nepgear still holding my arm.
"Thank you for taking me out here to see this." Nepgear smiled.
"No problem I hated seeing you like that."
That made her smile even more.
"Umm…Excel…I um…"
"What is it?"
"I…I like you." Nepgear said nervously.
"I like you too Nepgear."
Nepgear looked like she might explode.
"Do you…like Uni to?" she mumbled.
"…"
"I see…" Nepgear sighed.
"Nepgear." I made her face me "I like both of you. You both have things that make you great."
"Hmhm…"
"I just…I don't want to hurt either of you." I explained.
The moonlight hit Nepgear's face…and she looked like she was sparkling.
"Nepgear." I put my hand on her face "I can't stand that I'm stuck between the two of you. I like Uni's personality, I love your smile, I like Uni attitude, and I like you cheerfulness…if I could just smash you two together I'd have the perfect girl."
"Well I'm pretty sure you can't do that…But I…don't want to lose you to Uni. When I saw you two…I just got so upset."
I pulled Nepgear closer "Please, I don't want to ever make you cry again."
"What are you-MHMP!"
I pulled Nepgear close to me and placed my lips over hers. They were so soft and tender, it felt like Nepgear melted into me and I kissed her softly.
*Boom!*
In the sky the fireworks started, but our kiss didn't.
How tacky…
Nepgear and I separated for air, her face was beet red.
"That was…nice." She blushed hard.
"I liked that." I smiled nervously.
"Let's just watch the fireworks."
I lay back on the sand and Nepgear lied next to me. We watched the show but I closed my eyes to savor the feeling of Nepgear on my lips. When I opened my eyes I was surprised to see Nepgear laying her head on my chest. It felt so right, I moved my arm around Nepgear's back and held her close. She snuggled into me and watched the fireworks.
Nepgear's POV
When Excel and I got back I went up to my room. I had so much fun with him…and the kiss…
Rom and Ram asked me to color with them so we were sitting at the table drawing.
"Hey you two." Uni said walking down the stairs "Give us a sec."
"Okay!" Rom said.
"I bet they're gonna talk about big girl stuff." Ram whispered.
The two left the room.
"What is it Uni?"
"What are you trying to pull?" she glared.
"Huh?"
"Excel and you…I can't…UGH!"
"Uni…" I mumbled.
"You knew I liked him, you saw us kiss! I thought…I thought we were friends, how could you do this to me!"
"He asked me!" I said jumped to my own defense "He asked me to watch the fireworks, he kissed me, he said he liked me."
"Well he said he liked me too!" Uni said.
"He said he like both of us. He told me that much."
"Well this sucks." Uni grumbled "Look Nepgear, I saw him first so just back off okay?"
"No." I said "I like Excel, and I want to be with him too."
"Well I guess it's clear…I like him to…" Uni said.
She walked up to me and looked me in the eye "I won't lose to you Nepgear, Excel will be mine."
"I guess this makes us rivals in love." I smiled.
"Yeah, and I'm gonna win."
"When Excel finally choses, it will be me." I nodded.
"Hey Nepgear." Uni said "I didn't mean that earlier, no matter who he picks…we'll still be friends right?"
"Of course." I smiled "We'll always be friends."
Excel's POV
I threw the two rocks up and down.
"Uni…and…Nepgear…" I sighed.
I had heard them downstairs, pledging to be rivals for my affections.
"Some guys would love to have two girls like that fighting over them…but boy…this is rough."
