I guess I'm just surprised. You weren't interested before. At least not that I could tell.

I'm not that shallow Kokichi, you know that. It isn't as though I was interested in any of them for their looks.

[ He shifts his hold slightly so he can look at Kokichi head on. ]

I would have stayed with you even in a completely platonic way. The promise is separate from this. I just... take relationships very seriously. It's why I don't really flirt with anyone.

[ Even saying that, he moves to cup Kokichi's cheek so the other boy will look at him, his thumb just barely brushing his lower lip ]

But if that doesn't scare you... I'm not opposed to the idea.
