Ryoko stopped running and panted heavily. After she had calmed down, she took a look around the surrounding and realized that she was at the back door of the concert hall. Leaning her back against the wall, she looked up into the sky and closed her eyes.
Ryoko, what’s wrong with you? Why am I so badly affected by that kiss?
Placing her hand over her heart, she felt it thumping at an abnormal speed again. She let out a sigh.
I mustn’t be affected by it. I bear no feelings for him. I don’t like him. I don’t like Yamada Ryo-
Her eyes widened as the scene of Ryosuke kissing her appeared in her mind again. Unconsciously, her fingers traced her lips again. The touch of Ryosuke’s lips lingered on hers and her heart started to race again.
Hold on a second. Why am I feeling this way? Unless I…like him...
She clicked her tongue softly and ruffled her hair lightly.

“Chii, how is that possible? You must be kidding us,” Kei laughed while finding the reason very ridiculous.
“Kei-chan is right. Ryo-chan may look slightly more feminine than the rest of us but you can’t just use that and claim that he’s a girl,” Kota scolded lightly and the others nodded their heads except Daiki and Ryosuke, who seemed to be in deep thoughts.
Yuuri shook his head again and let out a sigh.
“What must I do to make all of you believe me that Ryo-chan is a girl?” he asked impatiently with hint of slight irritation.
Just then, Ryoko entered the room and everyone averted their attention to her. She looked at them weirdly.
“Is there something on my face? Why are all of you staring at me like this?” she asked, raising her eyebrows.
“Ne Ryo-chan, Chii told us that you’re actually a girl. We told him that it isn’t the truth. You’re a guy. How can you be a girl?” Hikaru said with a smile and Ryoko saw Yuuri swallowed a gulp.
Ryoko’s eyes widened at what Hikaru had said. At that moment, she hesitated. She knew that Yuuri wasn’t the type to spill out the beans without any reasons but she remembered that Yuusuke had warned her not to let the other members know about her real identity.Closing her eyes, she took in a deep breath and opened them again. At last, she made a decision.
“What Chinen-kun had said is the truth. I’m a girl. My real name isn’t Nakano Ryota. It’s Nakayama Ryoko,” she confessed with her head lowered, avoiding all eye contacts.
The members were left speechless once again. Yuuri swallowed hard and looked away as well. He felt guilty for exposing her real identity to the rest of the members without her consent. Ryosuke, who kept quiet throughout the whole thing, stood up from his seat and walked towards Ryoko. He grabbed her wrist tightly and dragged her away from the room. The members didn’t budge and instead, they were all still in the state of shock.
“I can’t believe that Ryo-chan is a girl,” Daiki muttered softly before burying his face in his palms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Yamada-kun, please let go of me! It hurts,” Ryoko protested as she struggled to release her wrist from Ryosuke’s strong grip but to no avail.
Ryosuke remained in silence and continued to drag her along. His grip became tighter as they were approaching their hotel room. As soon as they were inside, Ryosuke released his grip and pushed Ryoko against the wall. Locking her in between his arms, he stared down at her with anger clearly shown in his eyes.
“Why did you lie to all of us, Nakayama Ryoko?” he growled, piercing his stare deep into her eyes.
Ryoko gulped. Why is he so angry? How should I reply him? Argh, this is driving me crazy!
“Yamada-kun, please calm down,” Ryoko tried to coo while attempting to sneak away but Ryosuke had already figured it out.
“Answer me!” he shouted as he banged the wall hard and Ryoko winced softly.
“Yamada-kun…”
“Answer me, Ryoko! Why did you lie to us?” he asked with a softer voice and shook her shoulders lightly.
Ryoko bit her lips softly. There’s no way I can hide it anymore. I guess I’ve to tell him everything now.
“It was because of Yuusuke-kun,” she said softly and Ryosuke let go of his grip on her shoulders immediately.
“Ito-san? You knew him all along?” Ryosuke asked in surprised and Ryoko nodded.
“He was my benefactor. He was the one who saved my mother from dying,” she replied quietly.
Looking at Ryosuke’s expression, she knew he had millions of questions to ask. To clear all his doubts, she decided to tell him the whole story.
“You must have a million questions racing in your head now, so I’ll tell you everything,” she said, finally staring into his eyes.
She spent the next half an hour telling about her past. For some unknown reasons, she felt comfortable in allowing Ryosuke to know about her background. She even told him things that she didn’t mention to Yuuri before. Ryosuke, on the other hand, was paying his fullest attention throughout the whole thing and also was taken aback by his own action. After Ryoko was done, she felt a pair of warm hands on her face and looked up.
“I’m really sorry for raising my voice earlier on. If only I knew what you had gone through, I would never scold or even hurt you,” he said with such gentle voice that a warm fuzzy feeling shot through Ryoko’s body instantly.
Ryosuke’s thumbs smoothed her cheeks gently before he pulled her into a tight embrace. The two remained in that position for a good few minutes before Ryosuke whispered something into her ear.
“Honestly speaking, I felt very relieved when I heard that you were a girl. It’s because I didn’t want to kiss a guy at all,” he confessed softly and Ryoko’s eyes widened.
As they broke the hug, Ryosuke stroked her hair gently and stared at her with such gentle expression that made her heart pounded so hard like never before. Taking her hands in his, he stared straight into her eyes and gave the warmest smile to her.
“Will you be my girl, Ryoko?”
The only sound that Ryoko could hear was the hard pounding heart of hers. She felt like her heart would just burst out. Slowly, she nodded her head and her lips curved into a smile. A smile that she has never shows to anyone before. A smile that made Ryosuke’s heart raced a million miles. A smile that Ryosuke wished it’d belonged to him and only him.
Ryosuke leaned in and once again, he felt his lips against her soft ones. The kiss sent a warm tingling sensation down both their bodies. It melted both of their hearts fully and sweetly.
