Shizuku felt her cheeks heat up, keeping her gaze rooted on the desk. "Well, it doesn't have to be." She stated, a frown tugging at her lips. "It just slipped." Unless he wanted it to be a date. Then it could totally be a date. But there was no way Shizuku would ever say something like that. They were never going to get anywhere if she didn't at least try to move forward. Her mother had told her to work twice as hard. "So…where was it that you wanted to go..?" She asked after a moment of silence, finally raising her gaze to him once more. "It's a secret." Haru said.
He never knew that getting in a relationship would give him so much pressure. The youth remembered the day when it was Shizuku's birthday and she finally had the courage to talk to her mother, even though she was quite nervous at that time but it was sure cute. It must be really nice to have a mother by your side. He never saw his mother again after the day his mom and dad divorced.
A secret, huh? Part of Shizuku felt as though she should have seen that coming. It didn't bother her really, so long as he wasn't planning on taking her somewhere strange. It wasn't bad to be surprised every once in a while, she reasoned, providing it was a good surprise and not a bad one. "A secret, huh? I suppose I'll just have to find out." She couldn't exactly think of any places that he might want to take her. He was hard enough to understand sometimes, let alone predict. But that was fine. Shizuku didn't have to understand everything he did. She was slowly learning that. But even so, she wouldn't mind knowing more about him..
"Is there any particular reason it's a secret?"
Haru wanted to surprise Shizuku once in a while. He knew that today was the best day to do it since it was a beautiful day after all. Placing his usual smile on his face once again, the teenager tried to overcome his urge to hug her but then he soon failed. He knew that Shizuku was the right one for him and that would never change. Haru just hopes that she will forgive him for what he did to her when they first met. He regretted it so bad.
Shizuku froze for a moment, surprised by the sudden hug. She relaxed slowly, allowing herself to lean against him, her arms slowly winding their way around him. A smile eased it's way onto her face and she almost closed her eyes. It was nice..being this close. "It's fine if you want to surprise me." She murmured. "I'll…be happy as long as I'm with you." It was the truth. Again, she was being a bit blunt but…she had never been one to keep her thoughts to herself. Well, depending on what it was. If it was something that needed to be said, she wouldn't hold it back.
"I want Shizuku to be mine." Haru stammered. It was okay to say selfish things once in a while, right? But still, he was glad that he finally managed to say it to her. Those words that could easily make anyone's heart skip a beat. Shizuku's hair was smooth. How he wished to stop time and stay in this position forever. He couldn't have made it this far if it wasn't for her. Haru was indeed glad that he met the other.
