Without You

Chapter 2: Confession?

Sumire's POV

I leaned against the wall and cried.

"Sumire!" But Boruto-kun found me. I wiped away my tears.

"B-Boruto-kun, what are you doing here?" I fake smiled.

"I could ask you the same thing-ttebasa! And don’t think I didn’t notice those tears. What happened?"

"I just remembered something from my past... There’s no need to worry about me!"

"Sumire…" He clenched his fists.

"You know, Boruto-kun, there’s something I want to tell you…"

"Huh? What is it?" I blushed.

"Well, the thing is that you were always so nice to me unlike Kawaki. Since the first day I met you…"

"What are you trying to say?" He was confused.

"Just that I… I… I think I fell in love with you…." He was shocked.

"R-really? I didn’t know that."

"You couldn’t."

"Well, I don’t know what to say…" Suddenly I saw Kawaki. But he turned quickly and went back.

"Heh, well… I’m sorry, Sumire, but we don’t even know each other much yet. And I take you as my sister-ttebasa! Plus, there's someone else on my mind…" I giggled.

"W-why are you laughing?"

"I was joking!"

"Haah?! That’s pretty bad joke, ya know!"

"I just wanted to make sure…"

"Make sure?"

"That girl on your mind is Sarada-chan, right?"

"How did you-?!"

"It’s so obvious," I said gently. He blushed.

"And why were you so nervous then?!"

"Because I was confessing to you. It’s not easy." He smirked.

"Well, and you like Kawaki, right?"

"Haah?! W-what are you saying?!" I blushed.

"It’s so obvious-ttebasa!" He laughed. He got me!

Kawaki’s POV

"Hey, we should go after her-ttebasa!"

"Do what you want. I’m sure it’s nothing serious."

"Hey, isn’t she your friend? Aren’t you worried about her?!"

"Tss, shut up. You are so loud."

"I can’t believe you!" He ran away. I really hate it. Why does he care? Even though I said I didn't care, I still had to see her. She's the only one who understands me. For some reason, I can't let her be. I decided to follow Boruto.

"Damn it, where did that asshole go?" I saw him with Sumire in front of the school. What are they doing there? I went closer.

"I… I… I think I fell in love with you…" I clenched my fists. I decided to leave. She doesn't seem to need me at all. Let her 'Boruto-kun' deal with it… F*ck! Why does it irritate me so much?! I punched the wall.

"Oi brat, don't damage the school!"

"Shut up!!" I yelled. He was quiet. What's wrong with me?!

Sumire’s POV

"I think you should go after him-ttebasa."

"Huh?"

"Well, I guess he heard us." I look down.

"Does it matter? He doesn’t even take me as his friend…."

"Really? Well, he doesn’t act like it."

"What?"

"Sumire, why does he always want to fight me because of you? Think about it," Boruto-kun said and was leaving.

"Well, I’m going to talk with Sarada and Mitsuki, don’t forget what I told you-ttebasa!" I nodded. But where could he go?
