[dereban]

You're not going to ruin anything, you know.

[spacialeyes]

I’m being such a bad friend… [He doesn’t move yet. He doesn’t want her to see his face.] I’ll get you better chocolate.

[dereban]

Mmm? You're not being a bad friend. Look, I'll even eat one of the chocolates right now if you want.

[spacialeyes]

Eh? [He sits up straight again,] I-Inaba-san, that, uh-! You remember that they're practically poisoned, right?

[dereban]

It's not going to kill me. And I have a hell of a lot more self control than you'd think when it comes this sort of thing.

[spacialeyes]

Hau- Auu? But! Are friends allowed to sit on the couch together and quietly... I'm going to ruin our relationship??

[dereban]

If you don't want that, I don't have to eat it. I'm not really fond of having weird effects go into my system in the first place.

[spacialeyes]

Then... Nnn. Don't worry about it. [He settles down against her. Head once empty, now filled with sin. Yuuto sighs, hoping the feeling will pass soon.] You were right. At least it's you...

[dereban]

Of course I'm right. I'd like to say that I have a good sense for these sorts of things. By the way, I should ask... why did you choose those flowers in particular?

[spacialeyes]

[There is no room in his brain for a filter right now:]

Because I love you.

[dereban]

Ah...

[ ... ]

Huh?

[spacialeyes]

Hmm?

[dereban]

You... just confessed to me.

[spacialeyes]

[Excuse him while he rolls off the couch, hits the ground hard, then teleports to the door.]

Merry Valentines bye!

[dereban]

[ And thankfully the door isn't too far, so she's going to get up and grab him by the arm-- ]

Oi. Where do you think you're going?

[spacialeyes]

Very far away! I'm so sorry- I wasn't supposed to say it!

[dereban]

. . .Which means you meant it. You don't have to leave, really.

[spacialeyes]

[She knows..!

Yuuto shakes his head. He's staying by the door.]

Th-This is more reason to leave, actually! I can't stay here with those chocolates affecting me if I secretly love you! I'm a menace!

[dereban]

It wasn't really much of a secret.

[spacialeyes]

It wasn't..?

[dereban]

You're pretty obvious, actually. I just didn't say anything because I wanted you to say it for yourself.

[spacialeyes]

... Th- That's.

[Why would she do that to herself?? Wouldn't it make more sense to tell him to scram when she noticed his feelings were straying into dangerous territory???]

Are you a masochist?

[dereban]

Huh? Where the hell did you get that impression.

[spacialeyes]

B-Because... Why did you let me stay otherwise?

[dereban]

Because I like you?
