Daryl went slightly red himself, and asked "Do you love me?"

Tsugumi went even brighter red than she already was, though she remained silent. They both just stood there still, staring at each other's eyes or turning their attention to something else. Both of them thought: "I should say something, but I don't know what to talk about." It was almost like they were in perfect sync. But just after that thought, another notion popped into Daryl's head. Though, judging from how intensely red he went, he must have been a pretty embarrassing idea. Yet he decided to go for it.

"Hey." Daryl said. This caught Tsugumi's attention, and she turned her head towards him. Daryl braced himself, took a deep breath, and grabbed hold of the collar on Tsugumi's shirt. Daryl brought Tsugumi's face towards his, until it was only a few inches apart. Tsugumi was startled, but she couldn't help the glow of red spreading across her face and ears, and down towards her neck. She wanted to push Daryl away and say that they couldn't do something like this, especially since they just met that day, however her mind and body weren't working together, so all she could do has continue staring into Daryl's alluring, violet eyes. She could feel her heart beating in frenzy, like it wanted to escape the clutches of her own body. But soon, that was not all she could think about. Daryl filled the gap between them, and locked his lips onto hers.

At first, Tsugumi wanted to pull away and give him a good lecture; however, she started to enjoy the feeling of their lips touching. His lips weren't rough and scaly like she expected them to be, but were smooth and fitted with hers perfectly. She was enjoying the embrace on her lips so much, that she closed her eyes, going along with Daryl's flow. Soon, both of them were completely lost in the kiss, that they started to let out a few small moans. But unfortunately, Daryl soon unlocked their lips for gasps of air. Tsugumi was then let go of Daryl's clutch, and he stepped back a few paces. Tsugumi was about to follow him for more, but she soon regained her senses, and loudly exclaimed:

"W-what do you think you're doing?! That was my f-f-first kiss! And anyway, what if anyone saw us?! Did I give you consent to kiss me?!"

Daryl covered one of his ears and said "Don't be so loud, what if someone heard us?" Tsugumi got pissed that he used the practically same line to retort her. Yet then took his hand away from his ear and continued on to say: "Also, you gave me permission to kiss you."

"When did I give you permission?"

"It was written all over your face. Seriously, if you did that face in front of anyone, nobody would be able to resist."

Tsugumi's fever of red returned, and she said: "I haven't got time to chat right now; I've probably missed the meeting because of you! I'll text you later, bye!" And she started to run off back towards the school.

Daryl then shouted at the top of his voice to reply to her, saying: "I'll wait in front of the school gates! I'll wait, no matter how long it takes!"

Tsugumi bowed her head slightly, trying to hide her embarrassment. She then shouted after herself: "Do whatever you want!" And soon, Daryl was unable to see her anymore.

Daryl then set off walking the direction Tsugumi went off to, whispering to himself: "She's such a tsundere."

Sorry it took a while for the next update. I had a bit of writer's block.

Hehe, anyway, Tsugumi is now apparently a tsundere. But seriously, my god, Daryl is such a good kisser! I wish I was Tsugumi! She's really lucky to have Daryl all to herself!

I'm planning on making another two or three chapters before I finish it, but I'll try my best not to make the update gaps too long, unlike this one, because last time I updated, it was the 7th of July, which is almost a month ago. Anyway, look forward to the next chapter!
