Something was off today. Kagami was still a little awkward but at least he knew that Ayame wasn't her usual self. She was a bit quieter and her eyes seemed lost in thought. Kagami wondered what was going through her mind.

"Hey, Taiga?"

"Can I come over today?"

"Uh...what for?"

"Just to be with you, of course."

Kagami couldn't say no, not to those pleading eyes and pouting lips. Holding back his embarrassment, Kagami quickly leaned in and gave her a quick kiss.

"Let's walk home together."

Ayame smiled and the brightness returned to her eyes.

"Okay."
