Chapter 3

He looks at you for a while and then says, "Are you stupid or something?" "What do you mean by that?" you ask puzzled. He then shuts his eyes, opens them and pulls you towards him to hug you.

"W-What are you doing?" you ask feeling the warmth of his chest. "You are that someone! Your picture revolves in my mind every second of the day. It's a little hard for me to say, but I think you should know that I have feelings for you." he confesses.

With your eyes wide open, you try to process what happened and then suddenly hug him back. "I always felt so nervous around you and my heart started beating so fast.. I just couldn't figure out what was wrong with me.. But now I understood, I just liked you.." you say smiling with blush all over your cheeks. He breaks the hug and looks at the blush on the your cheeks and holds your face with his warm hands. Then with soft smile, he came closer to you and proceeded to kiss you but your friends catch you both.

They all look surprised but then click pictures. You cover your face with embarrassment when C/N suddenly pulls you close to him and kisses lightly on your lips. "Oooooohhhhh~~~~" go your friends with excitement.

After everyone clamed down, one of your guy friend asks, "Finally confessed, huh?" "Yeah.." says C/N. "Guys, dating isn't allowed in school. Remember?" a girl says. You all then think for a while and then one your friends again declares, "Let's hide it then... Nobody will snitch on them."

"Nice idea/Let's do that!" everyone agrees. You smile at them with gratitude and then start looking for things to do in the mall.

At school-

Everyone maintains the secret and C/N and you keep dating. Every weekend, you guys hang out together and exhaust yourself every time.

These three weeks go by fast and C/N is upset most of the time and tries to spend his time with you. "You are leaving next week.. How will I contact you?" he asks you after school. "Let's keep in touch with Telegram or Zoom, I guess. I will be back in 2 years maximum, I promise..." you answer. "Promise." he says holding your little finger.

At last, it is the day you are leaving for Japan. You give everyone farewell gifts and leave from school at 4 pm. While exiting the school door, C/N pulls you back into a empty room back in the school.

There he locks the door behind him and hugs you tightly. You hug him back and then he breaks the hug. The next second, he pushes his lips onto yours and finally kisses you. You get surprised with sudden kiss but kiss him back. "C-C/N.. En-Enou..Enough.." you try to stop him as you couldn't breathe. He finally lets go and kisses you on the neck. "What are you doing??" you ask shocked.

He doesn't utter a word and just hugs you again. Then, you understood that he was upset because you were leaving that day. "C/N..... I am sorry.. I will call you everyday. Right now, I have to return back home to pack all the things.." you say hugging him and crying a little. "Okay.. I will drop you.. Let's go.." he says and holds your hands.

After reaching home, you say, "Bye.. I will contact you as soon as I reach Japan.. Love you." "Bye. I will see you soon and also love you more.." he says and runs back home. Wiping your tears, you enter your house and see your brother on the floor looking depressed. "You good?" you ask worried. "Do I look good?" he asks also crying a little.

"Don't worry.. We will return back soon.." you say reassuring him. "Y/N.. Call your brother and come help me here.." calls your mom with a box in her hand.

Finally, it is 12 am and you leave for your flight. What an exhausting trip it was for everyone!

After reaching the new house-

"It's quite big.. I will take one of the rooms on the second floor.." you declare and run up. "He- No! I will take my favorite one.. Let me pick first!!" your brother shouts and runs behind you. After World War III, you won and proudly went up with a broad smile. Lying on the bed, you shut your eyes for a while and fall asleep from the fatigue. But your brother wakes you up and asks you to unpack all of your things.

'And if I only could

I'd make a deal with God

And I'd get him to swap our places

Be running up that-' goes your phone. It was C/N calling you. "Hello? Hey.. You didn't sleep till now? It is late now." you say. "It is fine... I was waiting for your call.." he says. "Yeah.. I think I dozed off earlier.. Anyways, the house is enormous.." you say smiling. "Nice.. How many floors are there?" he asks.

"Two floors.. My room is on the second floor." you say happily. "Damn.. Anyways.. Which school are you gonna go to?" he asks. "Idk.." you answer. "Dumbo.." he says laughing. "Humph!" you grunt. "Heh.. I have to go to sleep now.. Good night, love you." he says. "K.. Love you too.." you say and cut the call.

At 5am in the morning, you finally doze off to sleep after unpacking some stuff. The next morning, after breakfast, you and your brother leave with your father to look for a school. You do find a decent and prestigious school, unexpectedly close to your house and decide to go there from the next day.

Later, after buying all necessities you finally head home. On the way, you meet a few friendly looking kids. With your brother, you decide to talk to them. "Hi.. Can we be friends?" you ask them. At first, nobody replies but then a short and shy girl says, "Yeah.. Sure. I am Akari Hitomi.." "Ok.. I am Y/N and this is my brother." you introduce yourselves. "Which school do guys go to?" you ask. "We go to ----" she replies. Coincidently, they are in the same school you going to go to.

"Oh really? We are joining that school from tomorrow.." you say happily. "Cool/Nice/Yay!/New friends.." they all say. You guys chatted for a while. From the school name, you went to favorite hobbies and then followed by favorite animes. They actually speak English quite fluently. "Anyways.. We gotta go now.. See ya tomorrow guys! Byee and good night!" you say and leave with your brother.

After reaching back home, C/N calls you and you tell everything to him and chat for a while. Staring at the ceiling while lying on the bed after dinner, you think about tomorrow deeply. "I am a little nervous.. Never mind.. It is gonna be fine.. I will make some new friends.. Huff!" you say and doze off to sleep.
