“NAGUMO TETORA SPECIAL: FLYING DRAGON METEOR KICK!“
Tetora jump kicks Mao from behind, knocking the boy down for the count.
"Uh huh. Sure.
...Hey, you don't have to say it if it's embarrassing, but about you and Tetora-kun..."
"Not at all! When I fall in love like Hinata-kun and Tetora-kun have, I want to dream about the one I love all the time...!"
"I'm in love with you."
Before Hinata could respond, Tetora pulled him into a clumsy first kiss.
Tetora trailed off as Hinata gently guided Tetsu's gaze towards him. He didn't resist or look away, his eyes wide and vulnerable as Hinata held his chin in his hand.
"Tetsu-kun...you don't have to say or do anything before you're ready. Okay? I'll wait for you to-"
As Hinata approached closer, he could see the redness in Tetora's cheeks spreading to his ears.
"I..."
"T-tetora-kun, I did not realize you and Hinata-kun were in l-l-l...
I...I will look away!!"
Tetora's face appeared in the entryway on the other side of the garden.
"We did it! Hell yeah!!"
Tetora approached another fork in the path.
"Man, my legs are getting tired...left or right?"
Tetora, for his part, was still in the maze.
"Okay, Shinkai-senpai. Do I turn left or right here?"
Tetora's voice brought him back to reality. He didn't sound shaken- perhaps reflections that move independently from you was just a special Hinata treat.
"Hey, I'm at the next fork. Should I keep going on this path or turn right?"
"Okay, now you're just embarrassing me."
Tetora stepped into his entrance, Hinata following suit a moment later.
"Don't worry, we'll be done before you know it!"
Tetora approached the right entrance.
