Describe

(Meanwhile with Shuichi; his POV)

Why did I just burst into anger like that!? Sure, I was upset of him for hurting Kokichi's feelings, but... that voice I made earlier...what was that? I can't deepen my voice even if I want to, since it just makes me cough a bit or a lot depending how deep it is, but I didn't care as I run after Kokichi, who went into my room, for some reason.

I enter my room and saw Kokichi lying on my bed...holding my cap to his chest. I sighed, walked up to him, sit on the bed and rub his wavy, dark purple hair with a smile on my lips.
"Hey, Kokichi..."
"Hi..."

Shit! I have no idea what to say, since I'm not used to this kind of stuff, I take a deep breath and tried to think of something, until...
"Shuichi...do...do you love me?" He asked me, which I was shocked since I thought it was obvious, so I decide to repeat myself by getting myself closer to him and did a quick kiss on his head...which quickly made both of us blush so hard that we refused to look at each other.
"Oh god, I'm sorry, I-I didn't think this through!" I stuttered a lot, not knowing what to say to him until I saw a pair of arms wrapped my waist, I knew right away its Kokichi.
"I...I don't mind it...It was the first time anybody would do that to me..." He told me, which is quite surprising, what about his family?
"Not even your family?" I asked, then I felt his arms around me tighten a bit, making me realised that Kokichi might live in a terrible household, "I'm sorry, I didn't-"
"Ever heard of a missing Japanese wrestler named Sorai Ouma?" He interrupted me by asking if I know this wrestler.

To be honest, I never been a fan of sports, unlike my uncle, who is a sports fanatic, so I just shook my head as my answer, but then I realised something, did he said 'Ouma'? That's exactly like Kokichi's last name! That would mean...
"Is Sorai your uncle or father?"
"...Sadly, my dad," He answered me in a sad tone, now I really want to ask, but if I do that, I might bring back some negative memories.
"If you don't want to tell the story, its okay," I ensured him, not wanting to hurt his emotions any further, "You can tell me at another time when you feel most comfortable, okay?"
"...Thanks..." Kokichi thanked me, and then chuckle a bit, "Kind of glad I don't have to tell the full story, neeheehee!"

There it goes-the same Kokichi I know and love. Kokichi crawls up and sits next to me, with his usual cheerful smile and a tint of blush on his face. He looks really cute when he's blush and smile at the same time.
"Hey, Shuichi!" He called out with innocent, curious eyes of his, and then he asked, "Why do you love me? I mean, I'm really happy that you like me, honestly, I really do! It's just I'm curious and I really hope there was a reason for it."

Ah! He's right, all I said is 'I just love him' in the heat of the moment, but that's the furthest from the truth. The more I think about it, the more I started to remember why and it's...very embarrassing.
"Wellll?" He looked at me with pure curiosity and enthusiasm like an innocent child, which made me sighed and I can feel my cheeks heating up, "Huh? It's little Shuichi that embarrassed? Now I MUST know what it is."
"Well...there are three reasons..." I said, which caught him off guard judging from his face, which I couldn't help myself but smirk, which made him blush, so I decide to tease him, "Are you that surprised?"
"Well...not really," He lied, and then just said, "Oh just lying, you know, because I'm a liar."
"Ha! Oh, you..." I just lightly laughed, "But in seriousness, I just start with the most obvious one; you're really cute."
"Yeah, I know I am," Kokichi said with a cheerful expression, "Anything else?"
"Well...sometimes, your jokes kinda make me laugh," I said, which isn't really a lie, since when I'm alone and sad, I just remember one of his jokes and laugh, "Sure, I never laugh in the class trials or when I'm with others, I just prefer to keep it to myself since those jokes is something my uncle would make."
"Really? I thought he would be the always-serious type, considering he works as a detective." Kokichi said, which made me realised I have two uncles.
"Oh no, you are mistaken!" I tried to correct him, which made his head tilt a bit, "You see, I have two uncles; the one I always mentioned before is from my mother's side, the one I'm mentioning now is from my dad's side."
"Oh, I get it now!" Kokichi realised with a smile that I can't help, but smile as well, "So, what is your paternal uncle like?"
"Well..."

Suddenly, a bell ring and I quickly got up from the bed, then look at Kokichi, who looks a little scared, so I decided to give him a hug, which caught him off guard.
"It's okay...you'll be fine..." I told him to make him feel safer, knowing full well that the reason he doesn't trust everyone because he's scared of getting killed, "I'll make sure none of them hurt you, okay? Do...do you want to hold my hand?"
"..." Kokichi didn't say anything except he grabs my hand while blushing, which made me make a smile and help him up from the bed.
"Come on, I think we should tell everyone about this," I told him, "Since they saw us kissing, we should tell them everything they need to know what happens, are you okay with that?"
"...Yep..." Kokichi responded, which I did a quick kiss on the forehead, which made him giggle.

While holding Kokichi's hand, which is rather cold and a bit rough, I wonder why? But that didn't matter as I open the door and saw everybody standing outside, waiting for us.
