Chapter 43

Wolfram's POV

He hugged me… and while he's hugging me, he said to me, "Wolfram… I- I'm not sure yet of how I feel… but… I think I'm in love with you."

My eyes went wide. My tears stopped falling. I held my breath. I feel butterflies in my stomach. My heart beats so fast that it may fly out of my chest. I feel so much bliss and happiness that I can already die.

Time seemed to stop for me… And actually, I never want it to move again. I just want to stay in this moment forever. Because I'm afraid that if the time moved again… Yuuri will take back those words…

Those words… those words that I've been dying to hear for so long… those words that I thought I would never hear… those words that I give up on… now he finally said it to me.

To hell I care if he's not sure! I have already given up… I already stopped hoping that he would ever had the slightest chance to develop romantic feelings for me. I already dismissed all thoughts about him confessing to me or even showing care for me. I already accepted that he won't return my feelings that I was even ready renounce our engagement anytime he ask for it…

But now, he's taking care of me… he's trying his best to comfort me… he's hugging me… and ,even though now sure, he said that they're a chance that he is indeed in love with me. I just want to stay in this moment…

But alas! Time still continued to move.

He pulled back a little and held me by my shoulders. He looked into my eyes with so much love, gentleness and concern. My heart almost melted. I've never seen him look at me nor at anyone like that.

"I already have these feelings for you for quite some time now… I'm sorry. It's just that I was scared… I know that you've been waiting for so long… and I know it's unfair to you to ask for more. But please wait a little more… I just want to sort out how I feel. This is the first time I've felt this way to anyone that it's even confusing me. But I know that I don't want to lose you." He said then smile at me so lovingly that put me in daze. He gently guided me to lie down on the bed. I was still in trance.

"You have to lie down now and rest, take a nap. You're not feeling well right? I'll wake you up when it's time for dinner, okay? Just forget everything that bothers you for now. It's not good for you to think about your problems while you're sick, okay?" then he kissed my forehead. He pulled back and smiled at me again.

I don't know why but I felt like everything's okay. I felt contented and relaxed. I closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly. But before I fully fell asleep, just a millisecond before, I felt his warm lips once more on my forehead… then I went to dreamland.

Yuuri's POV

He's asleep now. I stood up arranged his blanket, covering his body to keep it from getting cold. Well, he quickly fell asleep… as always. I can't help but smile.

'So you finally acknowledge what you're heart is trying to say for the past couple years…' I can hear my maou self once again.

"I did not say I fully acknowledge it… I even said 'I'm not sure'." I retorted, in my mind only… I cannot voice it out or else I'll look like an idiot talking to myself and I may also wake Wolfram up.

'Really now? You're still in denial after you just confessed?! What a laugh!'

"I'm just telling the truth!"

'Oh please… I know that you know that you really feel something for him way back then… I know that you've already realized it way back then… I know you already knew that you've loved him for quite some time already. You just can't believe it… or you didn't want to believe it. You denied it all the time in your head. Because back then, you think of it as something that is wrong." I really don't want to talk to him… but it's not like I can avoid it.

"Well sorry… It's not my fault that I was born and raised in a country that sees same sex relationship as taboo. It has been imprinted on my mind… not by my parents… but by the whole society."

'Well, I know. That's why I can't fully blame you… but you can't deny that you are on fault as well. I may have been silent before… but I always know when you are talking to yourself, denying your feelings… trying to convince yourself. I can't help but laugh everytime.'

"Well, we are one person… so it won't surprise that you know my thoughts… I'm actually glad that you just let me be that time. Oh… wait. That means you also knew when was the time we actually started to feel something for Wolf!"

'Well, yes. Naturally. I'm not as dense and as prejudiced as you are even though we are but one person.' Same person as we are… Sometimes, I still wish we aren't and is itching to hit him or something. Anyway…

"When was it? … And what is this that I feel? … Is this really love? It's not just that what they call puppy love or something…. Right?" I asked, for even I don't know how I feel yet. I gotta admit it. I AM DENSE.

'You answer that yourself. Do you really think that what you feel for him is just what the people on earth call puppy love?! Within you, I know that you already know the answer. You're just not accepting it fully.'

"So you mean… I AM in love with him? As in really in love?!"

'Looks like you still need to sort yourself out. I can't believe that after you said that you don't want to lose him, you're still unsure of how you feel. After all those signs and experiences that you listed on your journal… you still haven't figured it out yourself…'

"The journal?..." I whispered… Maybe ten minutes have passed and he didn't speak… And I am just thinking of what I wrote in that journal …Then it all clicked! "OH MY GOD!"

I knew I'm dense… but I didn't know that I'm THIS dense… Oh GOD! That's why my maou self keep on mentioning that journal! Because that journal alone is enough for me to realize how I really feel! "I … I- I AM IN LOVE WITH WOLFRAM!"

Murata's POV

What's Shinou's big deal not telling me what he wants me to do in Hexzalia. I mean, I'm perfectly confident of my acting skills. The only weakness I have is if there's a hot, devilishly sexy, and sinfully beautiful creature that I have to have a romantic scene with. I know because I am part of the drama club back in my school on earth. And I always lose my focus whenever I will have a scene with someone like that.

I mean it happened to me thrice already. The latest one was last two month in our play for the school festival and I am acting as the prince… the one who is playing the princess is a freshman. But she is NOT a cute girl… She is hot! Good thing I was able to pull the acting together with fewer mistakes than in our practice.

Anyway, right now. I'm at Blood Pledge Castle, talking to Hube about my departure. And I am going to leave as soon as possible today. Preferably, right now. I've already prepared my things and all that we're preparing is the boat. Hube offered that he will accompany me but I told him that I'll be fine and the castle needs someone who will look out for it.

A soldier then approached us and said, "Your Eminence, the boat is now ready to leave."

"Ahh! Great! Well, Hube… I'm off! Take good care of the castle, okay!?" I said as I walk farther away from him.

"Yes, Your Eminence." He replied.

Now, I'm aboard the ship and am sailing towards Hexzalia.

Shinou's POV

"Hmmm… he's already on his way… I should tell the ones in Hexzalia about his arrival." I said to Ulrike.

"I wonder why didn't His Eminence just sent a letter… or told them with the use of the oracle bowl before he left the temple." Wow… Ulrike had a point there! Looks like my sage was thinking too much of what I want him to do that it didn't cross his mind that he should tell the others about his arrival.

"Well, it can't be helped now. We should do it ourselves." I said and then waved my hand so the scene in the oracle bowl will change into the happenings in Hexzalia. I focused it on the castle in Hexzalia…I dipped my hand and began to speak.

"Greetings Hexzalia, I am Shinou. The founder of Shin Makoku. I am speaking to all of thee from here in thy temple in country of thine. And I know that all thou art already aware of the stay of some of people of thine in your castle. I am hereby to inform thee of yet another arrival. My sage hath already departed from Shin Makoku and is on his way. I hope thou wilt welcome him warmly and see to his accommodation. I sent him the personally for some business thou art all about to find out. Now, I have delivered thy message, I bid all of the farewell."

I retracted my hand from the water of the oracle bowl.

"There we go. Now they know of his arrival." I said,

"But Shinou Heika. What is his eminence really to do in Hexzalia?" Ulrike asked me.

"For cover… He will propose a confidential alliance to the leaders of Hexzalia. Since they are a neutral country, they wouldn't want to publically announce their alliance to our country." I said.

"That is for cover… so what is his true purpose of going there, Heika."

"Why Ulrike... I sent him there to woo my dear descendant!"
