"Why?" asked Haru, ever the calm one. However, his cobalt eyes were a bit too bright to be as calm as he seemed.

He's probably a bit annoyed, Makoto thought. Anyone who has to kiss their best friend on the TV would be.

"It's because you're both hot and girls will get nosebleeds seeing you together." Nagisa said matter-of-factly.

"Nagisa!" cried Rei, scandalised.

"Ah, you know I love you Rei-chan." said Nagisa, snuggling up to Rei's side.

Beside Makoto, Haru started muttering about "PDA" and "at least wait till you get home."

"Right," Makoto said determinedly, taking out his script, "The sooner we get this done the better." He and Haru then proceeded to sit down and practise their lines together.

*timeskip brought to you by Haruka's hidden blush*

"Nanase, Tachibana, you stand here. Hazuki, Ryugazaki, you walk along here, holding hands. Hazuki, cuddle up to your boyfriend as much as humanly possible. Remember, you tease him, take his glasses, try to tickle him, just annoy him." the director ordered.

"I have no problem with that." Nagisa said with a grin that reached his ears.

"Ryugazaki, you put up with it. Got that?"

"Yes sir." replied Rei, sighing as Nagisa ruffled his blue hair.

"OK, lights, camera... Action!"

The four boys walked together along the set, Nagisa cuddling up to Rei, who looked exasperated.

"Well, Mako-chan, Haru-chan, this is where we leave." exclaimed Nagisa, looking as if he was trying to disappear into Rei's side.

"Indeed it is. Farewell, Haruka-senpai, Makoto-senpai!"

"Have fun!" Nagisa said, winking at Makoto.

"Nagisa!" cried Makoto and Rei simultaneously, and Rei took the blonde's arm and dragged him away.

Haruka and Makoto kept walking, and Haru shivered on cue.

"Haru, are you OK? Do you need my jacket?"

Haru tried to protest, but Makoto was already taking off his jacket and draping it around Haruka's shoulders.

They kept walking until they reached the stairs.

OK, remember your lines Makoto.

"Goodnight, Makoto." Haru said, turning to walk up the stairs, but a hand on his wrist stopped him.

You can do this.

"Wait, Haru!"

Put as much emotion into it as possible.

"I... have something to tell you. I have a crush on you, I have for a long time now."

Like you mean it.

"I know that you only think of me as a friend, and I'm not expecting anything to change-"

He was stopped by a finger on his lips.

Now the kiss. You've got this.

As Haruka's face got closer to his own, he found himself caught up in his intense blue eyes, and the lovely way his black hair framed his face, and...

Snap out of it, you're acting.

Then he felt Haru's lips on his own.

They were surprisingly warm and soft, and Makoto liked it. Instinctively, his hands went to the back of Haruka's head, stroking the silky hair there, and his eyes closed. Then they broke apart, and Makoto just wanted to tug Haru back to him and kiss him again...

Damnit Makoto, you're ACTING. Follow the script!

"God, I love you." Makoto whispered. Then he froze. "I'm sorry Haru-chan, you don't have to-"

Again he was interrupted by Haru getting on his tiptoes to kiss him.

"It's OK," he said, burying his face into Makoto's shoulder. "I love you too. And drop the -chan."

Makoto grinned. "I love you Haru, I love you so much!" he cried, picking Haru up and spinning him around.

This was Nagisa and Rei's cue. They crept back, unnoticed by Haruka and Makoto, Nagisa with a phone in hand. Rei was feverishly whispering, "Nagisa, this is a bad idea, think about how angry Haruka-senpai will be when he finds out..."

Nagisa wasn't listening. "Rei-chan, I got the perfect picture!"

Makoto and Haru heard this, and started yelling at the two second-years, while Rei tried to explain that he did attempt to discourage his boyfriend, but it didn't work.

"And cut!" the director shouted, with tears in his eyes. "That love scene was wonderful! Tachibana, you had me believing that that kiss was real. But Nanase, that was a stellar performance from you, anyone would think that you two were actually in love."

Both boys blushed, though Makoto's was more noticeable.

"Mako-chan, Haru-chan, come to my house to celebrate!"

But Makoto was confused as to the day's events, and he needed to sort things out in his head.

"Sorry, Nagisa, I think I'm coming down with something, I need to rest it off so I can come back to work tomorrow."

"Get better soon, Makoto-senpai." said Rei kindly, but Makoto was looking at Haruka, who said nothing out loud, but his eyes said, Are you OK?

I'm fine, Makoto conveyed through his eyes. At least, I will be.

When I figure out why the hell I want to kiss my best friend.

A.N- Here's the next chapter guys, I hope you like!

I really enjoyed reading your reviews, it's nice to know that people want to read this.

If you didn't notice, italics are what Makoto's thinking, and bold is what the lovebirds are saying to each other without speaking.
