"I don't mind if you were to ramble on." Umichi spoke. He was embarrassed, and it was even more embarrassing showing Suki this side of him. Before he was always more confident, and he was the leader of their group. So he was much more adult like, but now, he was a teenage kid who was awkward in the face of love. Slowly, he tried to look at her. But as his head slowly rose, he could just feel that his face was getting redder and redder.

 "I...I've never done anything like this before, and this is a game, but...it seems utterly and completely real...and...and I...i guess I just...please, say something" She slammed her mouth closed, biting her lip to try and prevent herself from rambling on and on.

"Well ... at first ... you could say .... this is .... just a game. But ... when you think about it .... it's become our reality." He spoke, slowly, a few words at a time, so he could say it as calmly as possible. Although it was a virtual reality game, it felt like his heart was beating extremely fast. This would be their life now. "Even if ... you tell me ... to say something .... I don't know ... what to say ..." Umichi kept speaking in this manner. He didn't want to just say everything at once, or stutter. "So... Exactly .... what do we do now?" He asked softly, finally facing her properly. Umichi's face was completely red. He had trouble keeping any sort of composure to himself.
