[Komaeda, in contrast, just blinks at Souda.]

What, you didn't figure it out?

[Well, it's not like he really said anything about it.]

Mukuro and Lila have been together for awhile... Probably about a year. But Hinata-kun and I only started dating last month.

[creamsouda]

[In a voice entirely too loud to be using out in public;]

AND HE DIDN'T TELL ME?!

[luckless]

[Despite knowing the guy for literally years, the sudden shriek causes Komaeda to jump.

Wh.................... what.]

I'm sorry...?

I figured Hinata-kun would've said something... You're best friends, right?

[creamsouda]

[Souda grabs Komaeda by his shirt.]

That's what I'm sayin!

Why didn't I know already?!

[he's so intense...]

[luckless]

[Woah—okay, Komaeda is being grabbed. He blinks down at Souda a few times, looking much more shocked by the sudden touch than the fact that Hinata hasn't shared their dating status with him.]

Hm... Well, you're both the type to get super into your projects. Maybe it slipped his mind? He's been pretty busy with the community center, after all...

[Komaeda has raised his hands in an attempt to placate Souda. Seriously, he thought the guy already knew all of this!]

[creamsouda]

Nyeerrghhh...

[Souda does let Komaeda go, though, crossing his arms because—]

I guess it's not your fault anyway. But I'm gonna kick that guy's ass next time I see him.

[He's not.]

[luckless]

[Hm................

Komaeda is quiet for a long moment, watching Souda, and then:]

Are you jealous, Souda-kun?

Don't worry, I'll still spend time with you even though I'm dating Hinata-kun!

[creamsouda]

[Can he scowl any harder? Somehow, he scowls harder.]

I ain't jealous!

[Jealousy definitely isn't hunching his shoulders right now. It definitely doesn't make him bend at the hips and grumble into a yell—]

Mmmmmmaaaaaugh!

Okay, I'm jealous! But it's not cos you're hangin' out with him over me!

How come I'm always the last to know anything?!

[luckless]

[Hm...?

Oh.

Komaeda glances over towards Souda, and somehow. Yeah, he gets it, why his friend would be feeling jealous over something like that. But he should really clear it up...]

You're the first person I've told, you know?

[Though, that isn't to say Souda might still be the last person to know... A lot of people are just more perceptive than he is.]

You're my best friend, Souda-kun. I'm sorry that I made you think you were the last person to know... That's not what I wanted at all.
