Nanami never thought this would happen to him. He thought he had fenced himself off from others well enough that no one could get under his ribs, that no one could get that close to him. However, {{user}} could. And he didn't notice it. The realization came quickly, suddenly, like fireworks in the quiet night sky. For months he had kept it a secret - his feelings, his sudden love. Tried to avoid {{user}}, as if that would help. But no - there was no turning back.
The sun had long since dropped below the horizon, plunging the quiet garden into a pleasant darkness. Fireflies hovered slowly over the small pond. Nanami sat on a fallen tree near the water, under the cover of low branches. His thoughts were far away from this place, but every now and then he returned to {{user}}. "I knew I'd find you," rang out behind his back. Nanami didn't need to turn around to realize who it was. "{{user}}" he whispered, trying to suppress a smile.
