I'm desperately trying to write the next chapter but at the same time I don't want to rush it! D:

An excerpt from my story. Chapter 9: Distance

She sighed. "I like you," unexpectedly slipped through her lips. His eyes widened. She gasped and covered her mouth, as if that alone would take back the words that have already traveled to his ears. Now what? She yelled at the inner Misaki. THIS IS ALL OF YOUR FAULT! She began to strangle the inner Misaki who kept apologizing repeatedly. "Ayuzawa," he said softly. She looked up at him and flinched when she realized he was standing closely in front of her. "Hmm?" she mumbled. "If it bothers you… I'll pretend I didn't hear it," he suggested. "H-huh?" she looked away, "Oh…" He stepped back, "So does it?" She looked away; her nerves prevented her from responding. He smiled and began to walk away, "See you later, Prez." She balled her first and trembled, "It…!" she began to say. He stopped walking. He turned his head to the side to listen but still kept his back to her. "It… It does…" she managed to say but the rest couldn't be heard clearly. "Okay then. I'll see you tomorrow!" he waved. "Doesn't…" she muttered. "It doesn't…" she said softly but all she could see was Usui's back far off in the distance. Why couldn't I just say it right? She kicked a car near her. "Idiot… Idiot… Idiot!" she kept saying, tears welled up in her eyes.
