Chapter 19 - A trap?

"I think…maybe I ask Kaito for help?!"

He went to Kaito the next day and asked him.

"Hey…I don't know how should say this but…yesterday I found a letter in my locker…it says that I should come today to the big tree in the forest…"

"You know that this is basically a love letter, right?"

"Of course, but…I got a bad feeling…"

"Then don't go?!"

"Yeah but…okay let's say I already had such an experience and because of that I am not sure…but what if it's not a trap?!"

"We make it like this, we train until the time there is on the letter, you go there and if you don't write me a message or come out I am going to suggest that you got beat up, what hopefully doesn't happens!"

"Okay, thanks!"

"With bad experience I meant something different but okay that's also good?!"

The school day was normal, and they decided to train until it was time, when the time slowly came Julian disappeared into the school's forest.

"Well…now it gets interesting…"

He was there but still hiding were you couldn't hear or see him, he looked to the big tree, there was a girl standing, she was definitely the one waiting "If this is a trap that's pretty good organized but it doesn't seems as someone is still hiding, I think…I go out!"

"H-hi!"

"H-hello

"I guess you're the one who wrote the letter?"

"Nods"

"To be direct…I wanted to ask you…to…to…go out with me!!!" She looked shy, she was normally very scared of his reaction.

"Okay, then let's go out!"

"W-what really?"

"Sorry I forgot to ask, what's your name?"

"You don't need to be sorry, but my name is Kisaragi Tsubame."

"That's a beautiful name; do you maybe want to do something now?" Actually, Julian didn't plan to say that he blushed after he said this because he only thought about it.

"Really…ähm…okay sure but aren't you here with some friends…I don't want to sound like a stalker, but I saw you training…"

"I think they will understand but if you want, we can go now, I only need change my cloths quick at home, if you don't mind, I also live very near to the school…"

"Okay if you really want to know okay sure, Hehe…"

"Where do you want to go, if you want you can decide."

"O-okay do you know this café, many students go there after school, if you want, we can go there…"

"Sure, I live near to that café, so just come with me."

"Okay…" She reached to a point that here nervosity reached a new peak, her love interest not only to agree to go out with her but also go out with her now, she couldn't hold her blushing back anymore and became almost as red as a tomato.

"Kaito everything was good, we go now to a café, don't worry about me." Julian wrote to Kaito.

The way from school to Julians place was very tense in a shy way, she was nervous like she never was in her life and so was Julian.

"That is where I live, I just go in and change my clothes quickly, I am going to be back as fast as possible." Julian said stressed, he wasn't just changing quickly, he was running into his house, like in a rush he never was before.

"Hello honey, your late home today, did something happen?!" His stepmother said, but Julian was not answering in an indifferent way like always, he just rushed up to his room and changed and came back down.

"Sorry guys but there is something important where I need to be, bye!" He said energetically like he actually cared about where he goes, this is something his father rarely saw and his stepmother for the first time.

"Sorry did It take long?"

"No, no, you were very fast, but you don't need to hurry so much for me, Hihi." She said Julian could feel that her nervosity got less and it made him also less nervous.

Julian and Tsubame talked a bit on the way to the café, the tenses became way less, both kind of became more and more comfortable in each other's presence.

"What do you like to order?"

"Just a café and maybe a little piece of cake." She was very shy eating in front of Julian because also she had her bad experiences…

"Okay me too."

They both had fun and time flew extremely fast.

"Sorry but my mother sends me a message, she already worries about me, I better go home now, I am really sorry!"

"It's okay but its late…maybe it's better I bring you home." He said but thought what if she thinks he is intrusive.

"If you don't need to go also home, I would like it…"

The journey to her home was a bit longer but after maybe ten minutes they reached her house.

"Thanks for bringing me home, I-I really liked it today, but one thing I still want to ask… should I call you mercer, or can I maybe call you Julian, it's okay if not…?"

"Of course, you can but I think I can call you then Tsubame then?"

"Yes of course, but I better go in now, I-I love you…" And then she ran into her house.

Julian was thinking the whole way home about her, he was not sure, but he thinks he also likes her…

"Hello, I am back."

"Julian, you have been away for a long time and what was that even when you ran to your room and ran away again?"

"I am sorry, but we still trained at school and then they wanted to go to the café, and I sweated so much so I changed my clothes."

"It's okay we already ate there is still something in the fridge if you want."

Okay thanks."

His father needed to wake up early for work so he already was going to bed, Julian was silently eating at the dinner table, he could stay up longer because school started later tomorrow and suddenly his stepmother came to him and took a seat at the dinner table.

For a few seconds they had a stare down, after time his stepmother asked him.

"How was it with that girl, is she your girlfriend now?" She said in playful tone, not in an evil one more like she is happy for him.

Julian was shocked as hell, and he showed his shock, but way less than it felt.

"How do you know this." He asked but he had genuine interest in how she knew this.

"When you rushed you much earlier I knew something was odd, so just out of interest I looked outside the window just to see you two; I didn't said anything to your dad or anyone else, but tell me now how was it?!"

"S-so on the festival I got a letter in my locker too that I should come to the big tree in the schoolyard, I don't know why but everyone knows about this tree."

"And there was she and asked me out, I said yes and if she wants, we already can go now somewhere, because of this I was changing clothes…" Julian blushed extremely but his stepmother didn't have bad intensions about this.

"Oh, this is what I didn't noticed, that you changed your clothes, and are you a couple now Hihi?!"

Julian was telling her a bit more but directly said that he is not going to say anything intimate about them, he hold back that she also confessed her love but not only his stepmother already thought about this she was teasing Julian the whole time, she didn't meant it evil, she just likes to.

"Fuck, was that day again, and my stepmother is different than I thought…"
