because I was scared, as I kept telling myself, "It is not the case," so I could run away from the truth.
Then my grip became tighter around her. As I said, "I love you, Colette."
Her eyes were shaking. Her legs feel like those of little babies as her face flushes. "W-what?" this is all she able to mutter
i am sorry... i just don't know...when... maybe i just want to protect you, or maybe... I said as stop in mid sentence,
"P-protect me...?" she asked as we were in the same position as before; we didn't move. I am on her back, wrapping her.
I don't want you to break down by ... will. even i know what will want is elf...: i paused saying this much
Her eyes were shaking as soon she said with a little smile, "S-so you also think Will love Elfaria, huh?"
He is doing everything from Elfaria. "He just wants to be with her," I said.
"I know...I know I didn't have the chance from the start...yet i loved him...but I was finally able to get out from it," Colette said
"Huh?... What do you..." I said in a surprised tone.
When you behave like that... I was restless... I kept thinking, "Why do you do that...inside I know, but because of my love or something, I'm just not able to accept it...even though the answer was in front of me. Maybe I cherished Will so much, but..."
She turned around halfway, just seeing my face as she said with a smile on her face, "But recently you are everything I think of."
Now my eyes were shaking as I was just staring at her as I said, "W-what?"
"Don't make a girl repeat herself, baka," she said with a pout on her cute face. "What I mean is, I... love you too," she said as her eyes were shaking; she was blushing and not able to see my face.
Man, my heart just can't take it. It's just too much for me. I thought
A—are you sure about it? Y-you even don't know what kind of person I— As I was saying that, I remember my past. I stopped midsentence, my face turned down.
Seeing me, Colette said,
I know you are hiding a few things from me, maybe many things. as much as I want to know it all,but I want you to tell me all that yourself when you are finally ready. "So I will wait..." Colette said.
My face looked up as I was staring at her again.
"O-okay, bye," she said with a flushed face as she saw me staring at her, and after what she said, she ran away from there.
I was still just staring at her running away. Confused, did it all really happen, or was I just dreaming...?
"Congratulations, master, you are finally able to accept your feeling," Mew said.
S-shut up, I said in a flushed voice... but suddenly I remember something. Wait... you were here all time, and you were the one who told me to follow her... "Don't tell me it was all your plan," I said shockingly
Hmmm...looks like I am busted, huh? mew said
hearing his comment, I was dumbfounded as i shakingly said,
"I-I will kill you, Mew," I said as I ran toward him, and he ran toward the house with a giggle.
the next day
Good morning, Akashic. Will said with a smile
"Good morning, Will," I said with a smile as my attention go toward Colette, who was watching me with a blush.
"Good morning, Colette," I said.
"Eh... yeah, good morning." Colette said as her face was red
Colette, are you okay? will asked
Y-yeah, I am. Fi—she was just saying that as she felt a hand on her face
"It doesn't look like you have a fever," I said as I removed my hand from her forehead.
Will was a little surprised by my action but didn't say anything.
"Are you prepared for exam, Akashic?" Wignal asked
"Yeah, don't worry," I said.
Today is our final paper. history, the Edward Sensei subject. We come into the classroom, and as I give my paper, this time Edward Sensei asked the genuine questions, not like in the original story.
How did your exam go? Colette asked
"Well, it was good," I said as I looked at her again.
"Y-you don't have to stare at me all the time," Colette said.
It is your fault. "You don't stay with me at all; you're always busy: i said
"Ah... I-I see," she said in flushed way
"So what do you think of going on a date today?" I said, somewhat embarrassed.
"W-what... d.d.date?" she said
"You already go with Will before," I said with a little jealousy in my tone.
"I-it is not the..." Colette said.
So is that a no? I asked.
Uhm...today at Evergarden Cafe. "3 o'clock," she said with a shaking voice and lower tone.
I smiled seeing her as my head came closer to her. my mouth was near her ear as I said, "Thank you, Colette."
She instantly gets backed as I go toward the other direction, grinning.
"He—he's just teasing me now," she thought in her mind.
As I was walking with grin on my face, I heard a voice. "what are you grinning about?" julius asked
"Ohhhh... it's nothing. So how your exam go?" I asked.
Of course... after all, we are the top student of this class," Julius said
then i looked at Will.
My exam also went well, by the way. Where is Colette? he asked
"Ohhhhh... she was at the cafeteria a little while ago," I said.
"I see," Will said.
Colette behave strangely at school: he thought
As school ends, we all go to our homes.
mew: you are really fast in this
akashic: this is your fault
Mew: How can this be my fault?
very well you are the one who make us together. now take responsnloty: i said with a grin
take responsibility? Do you not feel any shame in saying that? Mew snorted.
in another place.
"Roseeee, help me," Colette said to her best friend
What now? Don't you start loving Akashic? rose said
Rose is Colette's best friend, as Colette also shares everything with her.
"I—I have a date today with Akashic," Colette said in an embarrassing tone
What, a date already? "You lovebirds sure enjoying yourselves, right?" Rose said.
"L-love birds? T-there's nothing like that," Colotte said.
So what's the problem with it? Rose asked, knowing colette
I—it... Akashic will not do anything weird with me, right? colette said,
just what type of wild imagination are you having? : rose said
b-but: colette said but rose cut her off
you already go with Will, right? Just go with him now. You said he is a nice person, right?" Rose said with a smile
soon i got ready for a date and go to place we choose to meet.
When I reached there, I saw Colette was already waiting for me; she was wearing a red dress and looking very cute in it.
"H-hello, Colette," I said.
"H-hi," Colette said.
Did I get late? I asked.
N-no, I just came here earlier. colette said,
i see her again, and as I said, "You're looking very cute in this dress."
Colotte, with a blush, said, "T-thanks."
Let's go then. We go to the cafe first to eat, as I was hungry.
Colette was sitting in front of me as our dishes came.
I started eating mine as Colette did the same.
"Hmmmm...it's yummy," I said.
"You really like eating a lot," Colette said.
"Yeah, I love food," I said as I started looking toward Colette's dish.
"Well, what's that?" I asked.
"Ohhhh, it's here, special dish. i personally really like it very much: she said as then looked at me staring at her dish
do you want to try?: she asked
"Yeah, why not" I said.
Here she pushed the dish at my side. as I didn't move.
Ahhhhhh... I just open my mouth
She looked at me confusedly but soon understood my intentions. "N-no, not here" she said
"But no one's looking at us right now, right?" I said,
Um...: Colette
"Pleaseee," I said cutely
Hmmmm...: Colette slowly picked up the spoon and fed me.
"Hmmmm...it is really good," I said with a grin.
then we eat our food, and then we go for shopping
Colette was showing me her dresses to pick.
"Hmmm... this one is also good, Colette," I said. "Well, I am not very good at things like this."
soon after shopping, it's time to say goodbye
"Bye, Colette," I said.
"Hmmm... y-yeah, bye," Colette said but in a sad tone. like she did not want to leave yet.
It looks like Colette does not want to leave me, huh? : i said with a grin
"T-there's nothing like that," she said blushingly as she turned back to go.
but I immediately held her hand as I placed a soft kiss on her cheeks.
"Huh?" Colette said, as she was not able to grasp the situation.
Soon she comes to her senses as her whole face becomes red.
now there is no reason to be sad, right? I said.
"Bye, Colette," I said as I left.
She immediately ran away from there too. keeping both her hands on her eyes.
you baka.....: she thought
