Chapter 13 - Reaching Out

:: Jiro stays outside of the Guest Room and he hears Helios sobbing. He decides to stay there and wait for him to go out.

Jiro: Hey! Helios, you ok buddy?

Helios: Yeah, I guess (did he hear me crying?)

:: Jiro notices that there are tear stains on Helios' face, but he decides to not ask about it.

Jiro: Hey! Helios wanna play?

Helios: Not right now Jiro, I kinda just want to rest and talk to you.

Jiro: Oh okay, let's go to my room (What is he going to ask me? What are we going to talk about?)

Helios: Ok, let's go.

:: They go to Jiro's room, and the room is full of silence, until.

Jiro: So Helios, what do you want to talk about?

Helios: Well- (Do I tell him?)

Jiro: What is it? I can wait

Helios: Remember when I confessed to you during our trip?

Jiro: Yeah, and-

Helios: I think I was wrong, I think I fell for you at the wrong time and- *sobs* I don't even know why you're here. How can you even still accept me after all that? *sobs*

Jiro: Helios- you know I'm your friend, no matter who you are, what you are, and what you think of me. That day you confessed, I was about to go home but, I remembered that you are still my friend.

Helios: *sobs* really?

Jiro: Yes Helios, now put your head up and let's go play.

:: Helios starts smiling again, and they spend the rest of the night playing video games. Helios starts rethinking his feelings for his friend, while Jiro starts developing feelings for Helios.
