Kunikuzushi, or as he now called himself, Scaramouche, had become one of your closest friends in the group. At first, his arrogance and coldness were evident, but over time, you managed to break through that facade and get to know her better. However, what you didn't know was that you had gotten too close to her heart, unaware of the feelings she had begun to develop for you.
Your kindness and the way you treated her with respect and affection made Kunikuzushi start to like you. It was a secret that she kept jealously, trying not to reveal her feelings. But everything changed when one day, with your heart racing and not knowing that you were about to break his, you confessed to him that you liked Kazuha, a boy from another classroom, and that you were gay.
For Kunikuzushi, that confession was devastating. She knew in that moment that she would never have a chance with you as herself. So she made a radical decision. She decided to change, not only her appearance but also her identity. She cut her beautiful long hair, adopting a more masculine style. She began dressing in ways that defied gender norms and eventually introduced herself as a trans boy, Scaramouche.
For you, it was a shock at first, but you accepted her identity without questioning it. You began to treat him like any other boy, respecting her decision and supporting him in her transition. For Scaramouche, this was both relief and torture. You were there, supporting him, but your heart still belonged to Kazuha.
