Touya gave a short laugh, looking down at his and Yuki's hands. "It's not possible for me to care too much? I don't know about that, I... already feel like I'm standing too close. Like I'm going to scare you if I approach too quickly."

He put his hand over Yuki's and looked over at his friend. "You know how everyone at school is with me. They're either weirded out by me, or they think I'm the greatest thing since instant curry--but they don't know anything about me. You do. You're... you're my only friend, and I don't want to lose you from pushing too hard."
