[Shuichi edges further into his room just a little as Ouma goes right back to testing the boundaries of his personal bubbles. Whatever spell had let him stand his ground a few minutes ago seems to be broken now.
Or maybe it's just that what Ouma's asking has his face flushing and his shoulders hunching slightly with embarassment. Lord. He's willing to believe that that's a show of good will, that Ouma might really mean it and was giving him an out to pretend the whole thing never happened, which is...a nice gesture. maybe. He thinks. But he instantly knows his answer, and it's kinda mortifying enough that Ouma might as well just be teasing him some more.]
That's...not what I'm asking.
[He doesn't really know what exactly to call this..."relationship", as Ouma put it. But he's pretty sure pretending it didn't happen at all would only be more depressing. Wasn't Ouma being so careless about it what bothered him in the first place? He can't make it as a big a deal for Ouma as it is for him, but forgetting the whole thing isn't the answer the that.
Besides. Even if it was a one-time thing and makes whatever friendship they might have a little awkward, he doesn't want to forget what Ouma was like last night. Maybe that makes him a creep, but he can admit that much at least just to himself. How can he cling to that memory and tell Ouma to forget the whole thing?]
