Awkward, stammered moments pass between us, as we each pretend that outburst of mine did not happen.
Not that it was untrue. Kanji is cute, I have considered this about him before, weighed his features in comparison to the others of my age I associate with. Well, the male companions I keep, I've learned as I've grown that I don't find much personal enjoyment in looking at members of the opposite sex.
Opposite gender? That's probably more accurate. From what little I've read on my physical and mental situation.
But I digress, Kanji is attractive. I never thought a ruffian would be my type, but he's has a gentler side. His eyes are pleasant to look at, when I can bring myself to, and he's tall, strong, well proportioned...
I am not making this situation any easier on myself.
"I wouldn't rule out the possibility." I finally say, once I am able to look at him again, and him me. "Though it is probably too early to make that sort of call. It would be worth looking into though."
"Have you stayed close to the other members of the Investigation Team? I speak to Yu-senpai and Rise-chan sometimes, when they're not too busy, and Yosuke-senpai texts me at least five times a day with random inane babble." I try not to laugh at this, but I'm afraid my smile gives away my amusement.
"Are you dating anyone?"
...My eyes go wide, and I find myself clamping down on my tongue again.
