Akizen's POV
Where am I going to go? s**t!
"Zenzen!" His deep voice called out.
Oh no! I immediately ran left to the corner and went inside the laboratory room. I let out a gush of air when I saw him run past the door of the room. Yes! I finally lost him.
Well you're right, I'm running away from a giant.
After that kissing scene, I felt so weird. I'm so embarrassed because I kissed him back. What the heck happened with my brain back there anyway? Argh!
I sat down on the floor and wiped my sweat on my forehead.
"That stupid giant..." Then I hissed.
"There you are." I heard his voice.
His voice?
I looked up and saw him smiling at me. Waaaah! How did he get in? I'm blocking the door. I mentally facepalmed. Damn! This room has two doors!
"W-what do you want?" I stuttered. The heck?
"You." He said.
I feel my face heated up. What?! Am I blushing?!
"Yaaah! SHUT UP!" I shouted and pushed him out of my way then ran away again.
He chased after me again. Argh, can’t he just stop?!
"Why are you chasing me? Stop!" I shouted.
"Because you're running away. Mom said to chase your dreams. I don't want you to get away!" He shouted back.
"Drop it off titan! I hate you! Stop following me!" I shouted and doubled my speed.
Jeez. What's his problem? I'm the school's Student Council President, am I experiencing bullying? That giant is bullying me! He's always chasing me. He always makes me nervous. But... he always says he loves me.
"Waaaaaaaaah!" I shouted while running. What on earth am I thinking? I shouldn't be thinking if him because...
BAM!
Ouch...
"Hey! s**t man what the- Akizen?” Is that Kinien's voice? “That hurts, you know!" Then he smacked my head.
We both stood up.
"Tsk! no need to smack my head!" I shouted at him.
"It's needed since you bumped into me and we both fell down." He said in a matter-of-fact tone.
I just gave him an are-you-serious look.
"Zenzen?!" I heard his deep voice again.
"Oh s**t! Come on Kinien!" I said and dragged Kinien away from that place.

"Dumb...ass...why...did you...drag...me...look...we're both...exhausted...now." Kinien said, panting hard as we stopped running.
"S-sorry..." I said and lay down on the grass. We're here in the garden.
"I have to go now." Kinien said when he got enough energy to stand and walk again.
"Ok. Sorry again and thanks." I said.
"For running with you? Oh come on you gotta pay for that." Kinien said.
"Fine! One hello kitty keychain for the manly Kinien Han." I said in annoyance and Kinien just shot me a bright smile. "Just don't tell anyone that I'm here." I said again.
Kinien just nodded and walked away.
I closed my eyes. Finally somewhere peaceful. It's our free time so I guess it won't hurt taking a nap right?
I'm about to fall asleep when I felt someone sitting beside me. Maybe Kinien came back?
"Hey. I thought you're going back there?" I asked, still eyes closed.
He's not answering so I stopped talking either. Minutes had passed, I decided to open my eyes
My heart almost jumped out from my chest. It's the titan! I got up and prepared to run but he held my hand. Damn it!
I looked at him and was ready to shout but I saw his face, he's sad, his eyes are watering.
"H-Hey." I said.
"Zenzen...do you really...hate me?" He asked hesitantly.
Then I remembered I shouted I hate him a while ago.
"I-it's not that-"
"Please don't hate me! I know I took things too fast. I know I shouldn't have kissed you that time, I'm sorry. It's just that...I love you so much that I want to always be with you. I don't want you mad at me. Please stop avoiding me. Please? Please, let me love you. I'm not forcing you to love me back this time, I just want you near me, not avoiding me and not hating me." Rhys said, he's crying now.
Does he really love me? Since when? I felt bad for him and I felt guilty because I avoided him and... hurt him.
I ruffled his hair assuring him it's fine.
"I'm sorry, too Rhys." I said.
"You...you’ll stop avoiding me now?" He asked sniffing.
"Yup." I said.
He smiled and was about to hug me when someone shouted from behind.
"Honey!"
Shit! It's Amira!
