Cythe?
Cythe asked sweetly if I was okay, I smiled and said
"Don't worry I'm fine, I guess I just walked too much"
He stood there and removed his jacket and placed it on me he then knelt down he touched my swollen foot and was examining it
"Eeeeh?!"
I said out of embarrassment
"C-cythe don't! It's embarrassing!"
I shouted shyly as I waved my hand weirdly around the place
"You really don't have to feel embarrassed when i'm trying to check of it's swollen, just think of this as nothing"
Cythe answered calmly checking my swollen foot seriously
How can I act as if this is nothing?! You're touching my foot who knows if it's smelly down there for many hours!
I shouted at myself embarrassed, I tried not moving and sat still looking at Cythe with embarrassed look
"..."
"..."
We both went quiet
I stared at Cythe who was treating my swollen foot with massaging it
I took notice of his long eyelashes that's that same with his hair color and his lips that was as red as a ripe apple
His high bridge nose and blonde fluffy hair... All of his features suits the Male lead
I talked to myself
Without noticing I was just staring at Cythe the whole time, Cythe then noticed and looked up at me
!!
I jumped surprised and looked away shyly, my face was burning up and I don't know what to do I touched my cheek to feel it burning
Cythe chuckled and stood up, He then sat beside me and looked at me smiling warmly
I looked at him and shyly smiled back
"Earlier when we were acting I was nervous"
Cythe said chuckling
"You were nervous? It doesn't look like it"
I asked confused and amazed
He looks like a professional up there like he was really an actor
"The crowd were amazed by how good you act!"
I said excitedly happily telling him how amazing he was
Cythe just smiled and laughed
"What's so funny?"
I asked confused
"I was just surprised how happy you are telling me these things"
Cythe said smiling
"Who wouldn't? If you were in my place you too would be amaze, especially when you said those lines to Cosmo!"
I happily answered again
"You found those lines amazing?"
Cythe asked
"Of course you were like a true knight you confessed your feelings with the lines I wrote!"
I exclaimed
Cythe seemed to hesitate to say something
"What is it?"
I asked
"The lines I just said, it was embarrassing..."
Cythe said shyly
"What do you mean?"
I asked again
"Well the lines that I confessed"
Cythe answered
"You don't find that romantic?"
I asked
"That was the most romantic thing in the play, How you confessed and how you delivered those words made it even better!"
I exclaimed again
Cythe just chuckled back at me
"And when you and Claude adlib some lines it made the play more realistic, it was like you two were really fighting!"
I said happily
"The-"
I paused
Cythe looked at me in confusion
Claude said he was sorry, and he was looking at me did he do something?
Claude said something but that I couldn't hear
"Claude looked sad even before we started the play..."
I said sadly
Cythe listened and sat quietly beside me
"He asked me why I won't tell him the truth, Cythe.... I think Claude knows i'm not the real Athy..."
I looked at Cythe worried, Cythe looked worried too he pondered and thought of something
"You know..."
Cythe paused
I looked at him waiting what's he going to say
"Your soul you and Athy may not be that different"
Cythe looked at me with a serious expression
"What do you mean me and Athy are not that different?"
I asked confused and worried looking at Cythe
" your soul are different but it's not at the same time... I don't know how to explain it"
Cythe said
Me and Athy are no different our souls are different but it's the same either...
Why is that?
"How come you know of this?"
I asked
"I felt it the old Athy and you have a more similar souls than we thought, I just don't know why it's different too"
Cythe answered
He felt that our souls are similar and not...
But how did Cythe know how similar our souls are when he didn't even met Athy in this life yet?
I asked myself confused
I looked at Cythe nervous
"Cythe did you-"
I was about to ask but Cythe cut me off
"We shouldn't worry about this too much"
Cythe said
"But how can I not? You said that me and Athy are no different and I wanna know what it is, it's making me curious"
I said worriedly
*Pat~*
"You worry too much"
Cythe said smiling and rubbed my head
I was surprised but smiled back warmly and enjoyed him rubbing my head
"Would you like a drink? I'll go get some"
Cythe asked smiling back at me
I nodded my head as a yes, Cythe then stood up
"You sit there for a second, you still can't walk since you're foot is swollen"
Cythe said
"My foot is not that swollen, just a little"
I answered back
"A swollen foot is still a swollen foot, just sit there and i'll be right back"
Cythe said
I pouted a little but then agreed, Cythe chuckled and smiled
I was feeling a little tipsy since a drank a little bit of wine earlier.... I must've grabbed the wrong drink
I thought to myself
I stared at Cythe who was walking away I tightly gripped Cythe's jacket on me and without thinking I grabbed his hand
Cythe was surprised and looked back at me confused
I stared at him for a quick second to see him confused and smiled sweetly
"Cythe, I like you"
I said to Cythe
Cythe did not say anything and just stood there looking at me shocked
I was confused at first of what he thought but then I noticed his ears turn red
Cythe then came close and knelt down with his face close to mine
Cythe shyly came close and his forehead touched mine
"What kind of like is it?"
Cythe asked nervously
*Chuckle*
I chuckled and looked into his eyes and kissed his forehead
Cythe froze for a second then he stared into my eyes
Cythe moved slowly closer to my face and I slowly closed my eyes and so does Cythe
*Budump Budump!*
My heart won't stop beating faster, I can feel my heart beating even more fast as our face came closer
And closer....
"Athy... I also-"
Cythe was about to say something when we heard something rustling from afar
*Rustle Rustle*
It was so loud that both of us looked where it was coming from
And in the distance I saw something that stood out to me the most
Red hair that was rare in this world, Claude who stood afar from us his face looked he could kill
He stood there quietly, he then starts to come close to bot me and Cythe but then froze and his eyes widened
"Is he okay?"
I mumbled
"Claude?!"
I called out to him
But Claude won't answer
I immediately stood up despite my swollen foot and came running to Claude
I grabbed Claude's shoulders and shook him a little
Claude flinched and looked straight into my eyes
"What's happening, are you okay?"
I asked worried but Claude just looked at me in cold sweat
"I'm fine"
Claude answered shortly he then walked away
What? Where is he going?
I said to myself
I then ran to Claude and grabbed his hand i looked at him full of worry
"W-where are you going? You don't look okay let's go home if-"
But I was cut off by Claude
"I'm fine Athy..."
Claude answered in small sentence again
Claude then looked behind me and glared at Cythe
He then looked at me for the last time saddened and walked away
I wanted to stop him and was about to chase him again
"Athy, don't follow me"
Claude said
I don't know why but my body just listened and did not move, Claude then just started to walk away from me and Cythe
"Claude..."
I mumbled
"Don't worry too much, he just need time for himself"
Cythe said as he held my hand and smiled warmly, I smiled back but I still can't get off this feeling that something is going to happen and worried about Claude
