Track 2

Yo~ I just heard from Kiroku about the legendary birthday party that happened earlier!

HAMA House shook like ground zero! The sharp Boss’s retorts! The living room exploded with excitement during the special live!

Yep! Just remembering it still gets my heart racing. And Ani-sama’s brave figure as he fluently read out the Building Code...

Maaaaan, I could’ve joined too if I didn’t have supplementary classes!

So even though I couldn’t celebrate during the day… Happy birthday, Toi-san! My ‘random present’ for you is—

a ‘Heartthrob Script Collection Vol.1’!

Heartthrob Script Collection!?

I hand-picked scenes and lines from all over! Movies, dramas, you know it! Packed full of those moments that make people skip a heartbeat!

The k-kissing scenes are in there too, so be careful when you read them, ‘kay?

Wow, you’re really climbing the ladder to adulthood…!

Thank you so much, Akuta-kun. I’ll start reading it right away!

Ah… This is a line from “Vacation in Dancing Barcelona”. I love this one!

“You can tell just by looking into my eyes.”

“Your heart is…”

Wah!? Akuta-kun, your nose is bleeding! Tissue, tissue…!

I’m fiiiiine! I was ready for this! Kiroku and the others sent me a whole box! Nosebleed stopper!

Fufu. Kiro-chan and the others are so thoughtful.

Anyways! I love this line too. It’s short and sweet, but it captures the whole movie!

Right? I think it’s the moment when their falling-in-love becomes ‘eternal’ that got me!

…Hey, Akuta-kun. I have a favor to ask…

No prob! What’s up?

I… I’m always the one getting my heart stirred by Ani-sama, so today, I want to try making his heart stir instead.

Which line do you think would work best from this book?

Hmm~… They’re all top-notch lines though~

The thing is, Ryui–san tends to accept anything from you, so…

Eureka!! I’ve got it! How about hitting him with a gap moe moment!?

It’s a technique where you say something you don’t usually say to make the other person’s heart skip a beat. I heard it straight from Ten-san himself.

Gap moe, huh… I’m not sure if I can pull it off… Yeah, I’ll give it a try if it’s for Ani-sama!

I’m back, Ani-sama. Eh, where’s Netaro-san?

Welcome back. About that, he said he’s going over to Kamina’s place.

It’s been hectic all day, you must be tired too. Let’s get to bed soon.

Y-Yeah… Um…

Toi?

(My heart is pounding so loudly. But, I have to be brave here…!)

“Come here. Sleep in my arms tonight.”

(I said it…! My voice shook a little, but I got it out without stuttering, Akuta-kun!!)

I get to have you all to myself tonight. Looks like I’m going to have sweet dreams.

Huh!?

I was trying to make you flustered… But I can’t beat you, Ani-sama…

What are you talking about? I've completely surrendered to your cuteness every day.

Then, I’ll sleep with you tonight. That okay with you?

Mhm…!

…I’m glad we could celebrate our birthday together again this year.

Yeah. A lot has happened up until today, but…

The fun things.

And the tough things.

From now on, let’s keep sharing them together.

Mm…

What’s wrong? Getting sleepy?

Yeah... But, I don’t want to sleep just yet. Because that means today will end…

What are you saying? There’s always tomorrow.

I’ll always be by your side. Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow… As long as you want, I’ll be here. So don’t fight it and go to sleep.

…Ani-sama…..

(Aa-chama. Walking through this endless darkness where you can’t see anything is really scary. But…)

(I won’t lose. Because I have my dazzling beacon, my Ani-sama, here with me.)

(I want to stay by Ani-sama’s side forever. I won’t give this gentle warmth to anyone.)

(Everything about Ani-sama is mine…)

I love you, Ani-sama…

Me too.

Good night, Toi.
