I'm really an A

Perhaps because of that conversation, the graduation ceremony went smoothly.

Carl, as an outstanding student representative, spoke in a steady tone when he came to the stage, even if he was out of the script, he spoke very smoothly, and received warm applause. Arthur, who was brought to the podium by Carl to make the closing statement, performed well on the spot and cooperated with Carl in a tacit understanding , so that almost everyone thought that they had rehearsed in advance. At the end, it could be said that there was thunderous applause, and those school leaders were full of smiles.

But in fact, Andrew, who knew the real situation, wanted to hit someone down there. After all, Carl never told him about this incident. Fortunately, nothing went wrong, otherwise he would probably teach these two people a lesson afterward. ——But the main target of the lesson is Karl, because he can see that Arthur was also ignorant when he was brought up, and he also didn't know it if he wanted to.However, Karl and Arthur knew nothing about Andrew's mentor's psychological activities.

After the graduation ceremony, the pace of life slowed down again, and it took more than three months to officially enter the army (the national policy stipulates that even senior students have the right to spend summer vacation), and there is nothing important at hand Karl was a little at a loss.

[Emmmm, what should I do in the past three months? ]

Carl’s parents are still on an anniversary trip on an unknown planet in an extragalactic galaxy – Speaking of which, Carl has to complain about it. It’s a good thing that parents have been married for many years and love each other as before, but they have to celebrate every year: Anniversary of Encounter + Anniversary of Relationship + Proposal anniversary+engagement anniversary+wedding anniversary+... I have a trip on every anniversary (although my parents call that a honeymoon). A trip takes about two or three months, which is a perfect example of staying away from home for a year. I don't know where there are so many places to play.

My elder brother Oster is still in the army and hasn't come back yet, but considering how busy he is usually, he probably won't be back this holiday.In this way, only myself and the housekeeper and servants are left at home. The family is lively, but those cousins ​​get along well for a few days. It's really troublesome to try to get rid of them. (Cousin: Exm? They just think that this cousin is not only good-looking but also super intelligent, so they admire him a lot and want to talk to him a little more, why bother???)

After thinking about it this way, Karl felt that staying at the school was the most correct decision, but he has already graduated, and there is no reason to stay at the school, otherwise it might cause trouble for the next class of students—after all The dormitory he is currently living in is for the next freshmen.

[Thinking about it this way, it seems that I can only go home. ]

Well, go home and go home.Carlisle packed his luggage and was about to leave when he received a call invitation from Arthur.

?Carl was stunned for a moment before switching on the optical brain.

"Senior, do you have any plans for this vacation?"

Arthur's gentle voice came.

"I don't have any plans yet, but I'm going home next time. What's the matter with you?"

Karl answered and walked out of the dormitory with his luggage.

"...Actually, it's nothing. I just want to see if the senior has any plans, but this is the first time I've heard the senior say that I'm going home during the holidays."

Arthur seemed a little surprised.

[... Is this child stupid? ]

"I can't live in school after graduation. If I don't go home, will I sleep on the bridge?"

"No, no, senior, I didn't mean that, I just couldn't react for a while, sorry."

Arthur said embarrassingly, he looked at the dormitory building B in front of him, thought of his previous plan, gritted his teeth, and spoke.

"Senior, I'm downstairs in your dormitory right now. I have something to tell you. Can you come down?"

[Dormitory downstairs? ]

Karl had just stepped out of the elevator, and was stunned for a moment when he heard this sentence. He glanced at the optical brain in his hand, walked forward a few steps hesitantly, and saw Arthur standing at the door of the dormitory.

"...Actually, you know that I am going downstairs."

Carl had a rare joke.

"Huh? I know what...!"

Arthur realized halfway through his words, turned around and looked forward, and saw Carl standing in front of him with luggage in one hand.

"Senior?"

"Why, still can't recognize it?"

Arthur rarely looked so stupid, Carl couldn't help but tease, and ended the optical brain call smoothly.

"no no."

How could he not recognize him, the person in front of him was someone he liked, no matter what he looked like, he would be able to recognize him at a glance.

"Okay, didn't you say you want to tell me something, just say it here?"

"Of course not, let's go to the rooftop and talk there."

Arthur shook his head, took the box in Carl's hand very naturally, and took the lead to walk towards the rooftop.

[? ? ?How did my suitcase get into his hands? ]

Perhaps Arthur's actions were too logical, Karl didn't notice it for a while, but he succeeded smoothly.Seeing Arthur walking in front with his luggage in a serious manner, Carl struggled for a while, and finally did not propose to take the box back, but walked up to Arthur in a few big strides, and walked forward side by side with him.

And Arthur noticed that Carl didn't mention this matter, and he breathed a sigh of relief—if the senior insisted on taking back his box, he really had no reason to refuse.

The two walked to the roof in silence like this. Arthur asked Carl to sit down, and Carl realized that the picnic cloth he had spread the last time was still in place.

"..."

Originally, Karl thought that Arthur called him out this time to express his love, and he was thinking all the way how to tactfully... er, refuse without hurting Arthur? ——It doesn't seem right, but it can't be agreed anyway.But now that Arthur came here suddenly, Karl couldn't figure out what he was thinking. After all, if it was a confession, it shouldn't be two people sitting face to face, right?

To be honest, Carl is a little confused by the current situation. He doesn't quite understand why Arthur has to sit directly opposite him with a serious face, and must put his luggage beside him-in fact, Arthur is I feel that if what he said later makes the senior want to escape, at least the box is in his hands, and the senior can't escape (^_^)——this shows that this person is really black-bellied.

"Arthur, what do you want from me?"

Carl spoke hesitantly.

"Senior should be able to see that I want to show my heart to you."

Arthur smiled slightly.

Carl: ...No, I don't see it, I really didn't expect you to sit down and confess to me.

"Senior, what I said to you a year ago still counts now. I said that I hope that I can start pursuing you when I have the ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with you. For this reason, I have paid more this year. After a lot of hard work, I finally managed to catch up with you."

Arthur clenched the hand holding the suitcase unconsciously.

"Senior, maybe I still don't have the ability to completely protect you under my wings, but at least I can do my best to keep you from getting hurt. At least I can guarantee that you will definitely be by your side when you need it. Senior, It took me an extra year to finally have the confidence to ask you, can you give me a chance to pursue you?"

[It is said. ]

Arthur breathed a sigh of relief, at least he conveyed what he wanted to express without reservation, no matter what kind of ending he was about to face, he would not regret it.

[Ah, I just wanted to ask for the right to pursue, I thought Arthur was going to talk directly, but it's okay...]

Carl secretly rejoiced.

［No, what am I celebrating⊙_⊙, shouldn’t I be thinking about how to refuse now? ]

A trace of doubt flashed in Carl's eyes.

He should have said no, Carl thought.But when he noticed Arthur's hand hanging by his side, when he saw Arthur's hand that was clenched to the point where the veins were bulging because of tension but he was holding back so that he didn't hurt his suitcase, he suddenly lost his mind. speech.

[It's distressing. ]

Carl pursed his lips. At that moment, the numbness in his heart, like the tingling pain of fine needles, was indeed telling his love for the person in front of him.Perhaps, he didn't really have no feelings for Arthur, but when it comes to heartbeat, it doesn't count.

Carl looked at Arthur, his wheat-colored face was hard to hide the tension, his eyes were closed, his thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and his already light-colored lips were tightly pursed, turning completely pale. color.

[So nervous? ]

Carl suddenly had the urge to laugh, he suppressed the corners of his mouth that could not be raised, coughed lightly, and spoke solemnly.

"Pursuing someone is everyone's right, you don't need to ask me specifically."

Arthur's originally closed eyes swung open, and the dark golden pupils showed a dazzling bright gold under the sunlight. He looked at Carl without blinking, and couldn't believe his ears.

"Senior, you promised me?!"

"Cough cough!"

Carl coughed heavily twice, and the tips of his ears were a little red.

"What nonsense, I just said that everyone has the right to pursue others."

"The senior promised me!"

Arthur didn't care how Carl expressed it, anyway, he just gave himself this chance and agreed!

"Hey _(:D)∠)_..."

The request that originally had no expectations received a positive response. Arthur couldn't care less about his image now, he just grinned, how stupid and stupid that look was, and Carl could hardly look straight at him. .

"It's so ugly to look stupid."

Carl complained mercilessly, but saw that Arthur continued to smirk indifferently, which really ruined the usual elegance and decency.

"stupid."

Carl cursed softly, the corners of his mouth twitching.

[The author has something to say:

Arthur: Senior promised me(?)

Carl: Don't talk nonsense, I just didn't refuse (///ˊ?ˋ%2F//)]
