36 Confession

Lettu and I flew home as fast as we could.

"So, what did you guys do now?" Lucy, who was staying with us until she got her own house asked.

"Eh, just a casual spar," I said with a smile.

"Is that so? Then, why is Lettu absolutely drenched?" Lucy asked.

"I learnt a few new moves called Water Jutsu and used them against him" I answered.

"Can I use it?" Lucy asked.

"No, you need Water Chakra and the knowledge to use it" I answered.

"Water Chakra? What's that?" Lucy asked.

"Basically another energy... can we talk about this later, I'm exhausted and want to go to sleep," I said grumpily.

"Okay..." Lucy said, slightly annoyed.

"Goodnight," I said, as I flopped straight onto my bed, passing out almost instantly.

I woke up a few hours later, looked at the clock and saw that I had to get to school in half an hour.

"Crap!" I shouted, scaring Lettu who was asleep in his bed.

"What!?" Lettu asked, shocked.

"We have half an hour to get ready! So go!" I shouted as I jumped out of bed and into the shower.

"Ah... crap," Lettu said, slightly annoyed.

I got out of the shower about ten minutes later, got dressed, ate breakfast and ran as fast as I could to school.

I made it to the gate, to see Launch standing there waiting for me.

"Tomant!" Launch shouted with a grin, as she ran up to hug me.

"Y-yes Launch?" I asked.

"I... I have something to tell you..." Launch said, her face turning beet red.

"What is it?" I asked, not noticing her completely red face.

"Well... well, um... will you go out with me?" Launch asked, stuttering.

"Wait, what?" I asked, thinking that I didn't hear her right.

"Will you go out with me?" Launch shouted, attracting the attention of the other students walking past.

"I... well... um... uh... yes?" I said awkwardly with a stutter.

'Since when did she even like me?' I thought, confused.

'Like, seriously... this came out of left field...' I thought again, as Launch hugged me.

"Yes! It worked! I love you Tomant!" Launch said as she kissed me on the lips.

"I-I-I what!?" I said, still shocked.

"Hey, what's happening over here?" Lettu asked, as he ran up, only to see Launch on top of me, hugging me.

"Alright then, you kids just work this out, I'm going to go to class," Lettu said, running away to give us some alone time.

"Launch... we're still at the school gate... maybe we could do this when we get home?" I said.

"Wha...!!!" Launch then looked around, to see everyone looking at us and her face went beet red again, as she ran to class.

"That was seriously out of left field..." I muttered, as I walked after her.
