Haha. Stardus, what brings you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph. Do I need a reason to come see you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…After my mishap with Celeste, I hurriedly sneaked back to the hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I barely sat back down on the bed before I was confronted by Stardus, who had entered the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘…If I've been a minute later, I could have been in trouble.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sighed to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…For some reason, Stardus, who was clearly smiling, seemed to be looking at me sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Egotistic…You. You're hiding something from me, aren't you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, what, out of the blue? I don't think I'm hiding anything from you, Stardus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, she's noticing this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I replied as casually as I could, standing next to Stardus, sweating profusely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Yeah. There was definitely an accident earlier. And yes, I did kiss Celeste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was a very unavoidable accident. Who would have thought a holy relic could have such an effect. I didn't, for one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, if I were to tell the truth about this selfless accident… it would only lead to an unhappy ending for everyone, especially considering Stardus and Celeste's relationship… Mmm. Mmm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Yeah.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, Stardus' behavior is probably all a conclusion based on that dreaded gut feeling with no direct evidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, all I had to do was shamelessly push through…!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stardus, still smiling, bent her blonde head slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tucked his blond hair down slightly, and leaned in closer to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up at me, she said, still smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Yeah. That is… strange. I think you smell like another woman.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mmm. I take back what I said about smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only her mouth that was smiling, but her eyes were looking at me coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then it hit me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I realized, now, the seriousness of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘…..'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In less than a second, my brain started spinning at an insane speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is really fucked. I'm really fucked. At this rate, I'm not going to be able to convince Stardus with words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if I confess to kissing Celeste? Of course it won't do any good to make excuses. It was a very bad thing to do, and it was sneaky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What should I do? What should I do…?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘What can I do, what can I do?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…When all else fails, you have to confront them head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ha. Stardus… No, Haru.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh…?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grabbed Stardust and planted a kiss on her, a mindless kiss that cut off the flow of conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmm…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Stardus was taken aback for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, I've done it so many times now that I'm used to it…Naturally, she closed her eyes and kissed me back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, the long kiss ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ha, ha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She breathes out in a daze, looking up at me with her blonde hair hanging down and slightly flushed cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, she wasn't used to me making the first move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…And so, looking at Stardus, I casually stroked her cheeks. I met Stardus' eyes and spoke as if stating the obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haru, I told you, didn't I? I think of you all the time and I live for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, don't worry too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, I casually pulled Stardus into a hug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For me, you always come first. Always have, always will. Always.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…..\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She is silent in my arms….But even without words. I can feel her warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her answer, small and embarrassed, finally relieved me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Phew. The crisis is over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hugged Stardus tightly and glanced up at the CCTV above the hospital room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…The CCTV that Celeste had manipulated with her powers before we left, I never thought it would be used for something like this. I was able to kiss Stardus with peace of mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sighed inwardly, thinking about that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…I'm a piece of trash. It was one of those days when I had that thought. No, the more I thought about it, the more I realized that I was an asshole, even objectively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘…Still, I didn't lie to her.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I said she was the first in this world, but I didn't say she was…Yeah. Let's stop here. The more excuses I make, the worse it seems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, swallowing the thought, I silently hugged Stardus and thought to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Yeah. Because I'm a scumbag, because I'm a scumbag…'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I should be nice to Stardus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought silently to myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I hadn't really been lying, not in the first place, I really had lived for her all this time, and I would die for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because when I was about to give up everything, she was the only thing that kept me going. She was my reason for living in this world…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I, I just wanted to make her happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For her, the light of my life, my goal in life…And that hasn't changed, even now that Stardus has fallen in love with me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, my biggest goal now is to save this world for her and to do that, it is time to make the final preparations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stardus…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I said with a smile as I pulled her into my arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is time for you to become the true hope of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, you're ready, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Yes!
