Huffing and puffing, the two violinists had barely just made the train. Kahoko turned to look at Len, who actually seemed to be breathing slightly heavily from the sprint.

I wonder… what would've happened… if we missed this train.

And I wonder… is Len alright?

He had wordlessly led her, most likely to the room that they had booked, through the carriages up the train. Whenever they went between carriages, she could feel the crisp wind passing by, making her clasp his hand just that little bit firmer.

I'm so glad… that Len's with me right now. I probably… wouldn't know what to do.

Len slowly came back to normal from the sprint; having walked slowly holding Kaho's hand as they went between carriages to reach the room.

It should be the same place as before… I'm… pretty sure that's it

He did his utmost hardest not to smile whenever he could feel her hand clasp tighter around his. It took all of his effort and concentration on just finding the room he had booked not to show any change of expression on his face.

Just imagine that you're imagining her actions… at least, for now…

And who knows what comes later…

If Len Tsukimori wasn't on a train carriage and was somewhere private, he'd probably be drooling over that revelation like all other guys 5 years younger than him probably did.

Not that I'd ever publicly admit to doing anything that immature.

At last, he saw the door of the room, and took a moment to pause and turn back to the redheaded girl's hand he had been holding for quite some time.

She hadn't realised they had stopped, and before she knew it she had completely bumped into him, which caused something very good to happen.

Their lips got locked in a kiss.

As she began to put her arms around his neck to continue the kiss, she realised with the sound that she was hearing, that he was trying to open the door. She broke the kiss, giggled, and helped him open the door, before the two of them went in; after closing the door again; to continue off where they left before.

Ryou and Nami were walking, their clasped hands in a pocket of Ryou's jeans. Nami had figured soon enough that this was a pretty special gesture, and no longer felt the need to complain about it. They had already planned a place to stay in Liege for the night, wanting the one-off chance to be with each other.

After all, they led different lives – Nami as a reporter, Ryou as a musician – and that meant that it was very difficult to find time together. This was probably the first time in 7 months that they could truly say they were together.

It's hard… dealing with long-distance relationships. But, because I trusted Ryou; and he trusted me… we made it work.

Nami cast her eyes towards her boyfriend, towards the look that she had become so accustomed to seeing, and to those warm eyes that always seemed to look into her heart. She had wondered before how she managed to land such an impressive guy as her boyfriend.

One of the quirks of nature I'll probably never understand.

She was more than happy to leave it at that; because thinking about it more meant putting more effort into that, and therefore less effort into her being with Ryou.

She had giggled uncontrollably as Len tickled her. He makeshift-tackled her to the bed, where he nibbled on her ear and sighed heavily with the contentment she gave him.

"Kaho, you complete me"

He turned to face her, and saw that she was bright red in the face.

"What?"

She shook her head.

"I-it's nothing…"

You complete me. YOU complete ME. Len… is happiest when he's with me. He feels… like himself when he's with me. He; and it was this which caused her blush; loves me so much he can't be without me.

Kahoko couldn't believe that the guy lying on top of her, the one that she always would dream about, liked her as much as she liked him.

Is this… what love means? To truly want to be with one another, regardless of what could happen?

"Len, I…"

I have to say it. My feelings.

"I… I love you, Len!"

In the end she cried out everything in that one line, and hoped with every beat of her heart that he felt the same way.

Ryou and Nami had reached the safety of their room, free from the cold chilling wind of the night.

"I missed you a lot, Nami."

She turned to face him, and smiled.

"I missed you too, Ryou."

"Let's try harder to meet up more often"

"We always say that, Ryou! Be a bit more creative, or something!"

"I love you"

Hearing those three words stopped Nami in her tracks instantly.

"W-what?"

She could feel his arms wrapping around her waist, his breathing in her ear.

"You heard me the first time; I said I love you"

She blushed furiously.

I said be creative, but I didn't need to hear that!

"I…I know…"

He chuckled, most likely at her discomfort at him saying it.

"What's wrong? We've been dating for a while, and you've never heard me say it?"

"It's not that, it's just –"

"Well, while we're here together I'll say it again and again; just so it stays in your head…"

That resulted in an even more furious blush than the first.

There should be a limit to making someone uncomfortable by saying how much you love them! I mean, it's not like I already know…

Len blinked at Kahoko's exclamation.

Did she say what I thought she just said?

Things slid out of focus as his mind digested what she had said.

She loves me. She loves ME.

"I…"

OOOOOOOO
