"I love you, Haru."

When Honoka's voice fell, not only Haru was dumbfounded, but all the people in their surroundings were also dumbfounded since no one would ever think that a girl would suddenly confess in the middle of the pedestrian bridge.

As her voice fell, there was no one that opened their mouths and the only sound that they could hear was the sound of vehicles that were moving under the bridge.

Haru looked at Honoka, who faced him with a determined expression. He couldn't help but recall their first time meeting each other.

'It's been so long, huh?'

While Honoka often showed her idiot-like expression and acted like an idiot too, Haru knew that Honoka was the sharpest among everyone and she was the one who led everyone. Still, even so, she was the only girl that hadn't done anything.

"Before I answer your confession, how about we go somewhere now?"

"Ah!"

Honoka then realized that there were so many people that stared at them. She then lowered her head shyly and hid behind him without hesitation.

"Le - Let's go, Haru!"

When Haru looked at Honoka's reaction, somehow he wanted to tease her more, letting her stay in this place, but he also knew time and occasion, and this wasn't the time for teasing her.

"Okay."

They didn't walk that far and stopped in the playground that was located nearby.

It might be because it was winter that there weren't any children that went out to play.

Still, it might be because Haru couldn't answer Honoka's confession right away that the atmosphere between them turned weird and neither of them talked to each other as they walked, which caused the situation to become even awkward.

"Let's sit down on the swing."

"Okay."

Honoka agreed with Haru's invitation and the two of them sat on the swing next to each other.

Still, many things happened on Honoka's mind at this moment.

Honoka somehow felt regretting that she confessed so thoughtlessly in the middle of the street. If she followed his words and confessed to him in a quiet place, then neither of them had to bear this kind of awkward situation, right?

"Um..."

"Okay."

"Eh?"

Honoka was dumbfounded when Haru answered so easily.

However, suddenly his expression started to change, and said, "If I say "okay" right away, I think that I take your feelings lightly."

"What do you mean?" Honoka asked with some confusion.

"Honoka, you should understand, right?" Haru looked at Honoka and said, "I'm not the good man that you have imagined. I'm a scumbag. If you become my girlfriend, you won't be my only one." Each girl was different and each of them was unique, he knew that this girl was different from other girls and he needed to be sincere, and also reminded her of the cruel fact if she decided to date him.

The relationship between the two of them could be said to be special.

They stayed together for so long, but even so, it might be the first time for them to think about dating each other.

They should be satisfied with each other's relationship, but they couldn't be satisfied and wanted to have an even more special relationship.

This was why Honoka confessed and Haru answered her feelings without sugarcoating anything.

Honoka looked at Haru and saw his eyes didn't look away and kept staring at her. She also did the same, her eyes never wavered as she kept staring at the eyes of the man that she loved.

"Yes. I know."

Honoka knew that Haru wasn't a good man as she had imagined and she knew many bad parts of him, especially his perverted side since she often heard the cry of Kotori in secretive places. She wasn't sure whether this guy was deliberately or he didn't know that she often overheard or happened to see him having done that with Kotori, but one thing for sure, she could tell that Kotori seemed to be so happy.

However, Honoka also knew that it was a normal thing for a couple to have sex since she also often happened to see her mother and father, doing something naughty, so she didn't think too much and she accepted quickly.

Still, there was this little demon in her heart that told her that she also wanted to do the same thing with the one that she loved.

This person might not be perfect, and he was an utter scumbag, but Honoka believed that he would treat her well.

"I know, but even so, I still love you, so can you let me know your answer?" Honoka asked sincerely.

"................."

Haru looked at Honoka and thought that this girl was really wonderful. He knew that he often did something bad such as bullying Kotori when he knew that there was Honoka nearby.

Still, this also wasn't his fault since Kotori also loved such a play, especially when Kotori thought that she was almost found out by her best friend that she did something perverted. It was also the reason why she also entered his room even though her mother was also sleeping in the same house.

In other words, even though Kotori seemed pure, she was a pervert too.

Fortunately, Haru was also a pervert and they fitted each other perfectly.

However, this wasn't the time for him to think about Kotori and he needed to focus on the girl in front of him.

Haru looked at Honoka for a moment and asked, "Are you sure?" His face might be handsome, but he also knew that his personality was the worst, so he wanted to make sure that this girl wouldn't regret it since if he accepted, then he wouldn't let her go.

"I'm serious!" Honoka puffed her cheeks and her face flushed. She was annoyed since this guy kept doubting him. "I love you so ---" Before she finished her sentence, she was kissed!

"................"

Honoka's mind stopped and she kept blinking her eyes for a moment until their lips parted.

"I love you too, Honoka," Haru said with a gentle smile.

Honoka opened her lips then closed it again. Her lips trembled as her eyes reddened and tears dripped from her eyes. She leaped from the swing and jumped into him, hugging his neck tightly, and said, "I love you too, Haru."

"I love you more, Honoka."

"No, I'm the one who loves you more!"

"No, it's me!"

"It's me!"

They kept bickering to each other before they looked at each other and laughed.

"Can I kiss you again?" Haru suddenly asked.

Honoka opened her mouth then closed it again, her cheeks blushed, but she nodded shyly. "Um."

They stared at each other's eyes for a moment then kissed each other again until snow dropped from the sky.

"Snow has started to fall..." Haru looked up as he hugged Honoka's waist.

"Um." Honoka nodded, watching the snow as she leaned her head on his shoulder.

This was the first snow of the year, and it was also their witness who watched them become a couple.

"Snow..."

Honoka murmured and got an idea of what kind of song Muse would sing.

"What's wrong?"

Honoka looked at Haru with a smile and kissed his lips.

"............." Haru.

"Haru."

"Hmm?"

"We'll make a good song," Honoka said confidently.

Haru looked at Honoka with a smile and kissed her forehead. "I can't wait for it."
