For me it was kind of like that, too. I think it started that day when you chased me down, remember? I thought, "what's his deal?" and "why does he care so much?" It was nice just to have someone to talk to, I guess--someone who would listen to me without judging me. I didn't realize it until we were casing Madarame's palace, but... there was never an opportunity to bring it up. Then, when we visited with Shiho that last time up on the roof of the school, and I was so upset, and you said something like "The team will always be there for you."

In that moment, I thought I'd give almost anything for you--no, for him--to say he would always be there for me. I never pressed the issue after that, and he never talked about it with us, but we all spend so much time together that it was easy to figure out when he started seeing someone.

God, what's wrong with me? Why am I even worried about that anymore when I'm here with you right now? I'm such an idiot sometimes.
