Couldn't Believe...

Chapter 133

In the toilets...

"Man, that's really messed up. I can't believe I'm going to the Spirit World just to bring someone who probably doesn't even know us-"
*from outside* "ASTER! SHOW YOURSELF!"
"Huh? Isn't that Hexy? Why is he screaming like that-?!"
*BAM* "HERE YOU ARE!"
"Wow, calm down buddy. What's going on?"
"You tell me! I thought you weren't into her!"
"Hein? Into who?"
"DON'T ACT DUMB."
"Hey! Calm down and explain! Who are you talking about?"
"Diane!"
"... Hein?"
"Don't 'hein' me! You told me you weren't interested in her!"
"..."

Is he joking or something? Maybe I should play along.

"When did I say that I didn't like her?"
"You-"
"I mean, Diane is pretty. She's smart, and funny, and a real lady. That's my type, you know?"
"..."
"I'll go and ask her out-"
*punch*
"OUCH! THIS HURTS!"
"That's for saying that you like her." *slap*
"HEY!"
"And that's for wanting to ask her out."
"Dude! I was just joking!"
"What?"
"I thought you were making this up, and I went with the flow!"
"Wait, so she's not your type?"
"NO!"
"And you don't want to ask her out?"
"HELL NAH! WHY WOULD I DO THAT?!"
"I see..."
"I deserve an apology!"
"I'm sorry."
"If you love her this much, why don't you go and tell her?"
"I don't-"
"You literally punched me because I said she's my type. If that's not love, then I don't know what it is."
"... Even if it is, she'll surely reject me."
"So what? If you don't tell her, trust me, you'll regret it."
"..."
"Plus, who knows, she might accept. But you won't know unless you confess."
"..."
"Go. Go and tell her."
"... You think?"
"I've been telling you this for the past five minutes, dumbass."
"... I'm leaving."
"It's about time!"
"Bye!" *runs*
"What am I? Cupid or something?"

Wait a second... why in the world did he think that I like her? Someone must've told him-

"... BLACKIE!!"

...

In the cherry blossom garden...

"I need to tell him. I need to."

But what if he rejects me? I don't think I'll be able to handle it-

"Diane!"
"?!" *turns*
*hug*
"Hexy?"
*huff huff* "I'm glad I found you."
"What is it? Is everything alright-"
"I love you."
"... What?"
"Actually, I don't love you. I adore you."
"..."
"At the beginning, I didn't like you at all. I thought you were annoying, just a random spirit who thought she could outsmart me or take my place. However, slowly, I started to develop a liking to you. I began to see how sweet you can be – a beautiful, smart, strong yet soft woman. Without realizing it, I fell for you. You weren't just someone I wanted to see; you became someone I needed to see. My day wouldn't go well without catching a glimpse or exchanging a few words, even if it's just a simple hello."
"..."
*holds her hands* "Diane, I know this is sudden, and that you might not accept, but I'll ask regardless."
"..."
"Will you go out with me?"
"..."
"Please, say something-"
*kiss*
"!"
*let go* "Thank you."
"... For what?"
"For loving me back."
"!"
"Hexy, I love you too."
"..."
"Well, saying that I love you is an understatement, but you get what I mean-"
*hug*
"!"
"I love you, Diane. I really, really do."
*smile*
*let go* *brush her cheek* "Can I?"
"Yes."
*kiss*

Master was right. Love is indeed an amazing feeling.

*let go* "Hexy-"
"I need more."
*kiss*
"Mm!"
*let go* *stare*
"?"
"Diane..."
"Yes?"
"... Open your mouth a little."
"Eh? Why-!"
"Please."
"..." *opens her mouth*
*kiss*
*blush* "!"

His tongue!

*let go*
*huff huff*
*licks her lips*
"!"
*smile* "I'm sorry. This wasn't appropriate, especially after our first kiss. But I needed that. I needed to experience it, to feel the taste of you."
*blush* "... I mean, I didn't dislike it."
"... So, you don't mind if I do it again?"
*shakes her head* "I don't-!"
*kiss*
*slides her hands in his hair*

I love her so much.

*puts his hands around her waist*

I love him so much.

A few minutes later...

*let go*
*huff huff*
"You okay?"
"Yes."
"Do you want to continue?"
"I think we should stop."
*nod* "Thank you."
"So, now we're together?"
"I think what we just did should answer your question."
*smile*
"Though I would've loved to savour more of your kisses."
*blush* "Stop teasing me."
*chuckle* "Well, I'm sure that we at least did a lot more than what Bluma had done up until now."
"... Master just has her boundaries."
"True, and Eluma respects them all, but..."
"But?"
"You know, even a gentleman has desires for his woman. It's in human nature. When you're in love, these desires are undeniable. The proof lies in what we just did, the passion in our every kiss, especially considering we've just confessed our feelings to each other. Personally, I couldn't control myself, so I truly respect Eluma's ability to maintain composure even after all this time."
"What do you mean?"
"Eluma has loved Blackie for years, patiently waiting for her to be ready to confess. Even now, he continues to wait, wanting to go deeper when she's prepared. And in the future, he's committed to waiting until they get married. That's how deep his love is, and he endures a lot for her sake."
"... Y'all are horny."
*chuckle* "Maybe."
"Jokes aside, he must be really into Master."
"Oh, trust me, that is a huge understatement."
"... Sadly, we can't get involved. That's their relationship after all."
"... Yeah, you're right."
"... Hexy, don't do anything reckless."
"I won't."

He will.

"Well, I have to go."
"To where?"
"I gotta say the news to Blackie."
*nod* "See you."
"See you, babe."
*woosh*
*blush* *smile* "Hehe."

Nah, I'm sure as hell he's going to meddle in this. There's no way Hexy would stay silent when it comes to these two.

"Well, as long as he doesn't create problems, I guess it's fine."
