Hello everyone, This will be my first fanfic for this Manga. I hope you'll enjoy it and review it. I'll appreciate any reviews, even bad ones. :)

This story will have ups and downs for Mei, so be prepared for heartaches and make-outs. This is about Mei's struggle to grasp how she really feels.

Please Enjoy and I do not own Citrus!


"I Love You Mei. Will you please go out with me?" Yuzu told Mei with sincerity and tears falling from her eyes. She gripped her shirt tightly and closed her eyes as she waited for Mei's answer.

Mei was shocked, but she knew how she felt. But the words she wanted to say were trapped inside and didn't want to be released, but at least she was able to say this much.

"Of course, I'll go out with you Yuzu." Mei told Yuzu as she wiped away Yuzu's tears. These words made Yuzu the happiest person in the world, but to Mei, it was incomplete because that was all she said. She wanted to say the words "I Love You", but was unable to. No matter how hard she tried, they weren't able to be heard by the one she loved.

It's already been a week and they were happy. Even Mei was sincerely happy being with Yuzu. But she always felt guilty never telling Yuzu she loved her. After all, Yuzu told Mei she loved her, so why shouldn't she?

They were currently on a date and as they walked in the streets, holding hands, Yuzu suddenly stopped. Mei thought it was quite strange and asked Mei why they stopped. But before she could even ask, Yuzu let go of her hand and ran towards something or someone.

"Jin-chan!" Yuzu yelled and someone turned around. It was a man with white hair, blue eyes, and wore decent clothes. He had a shocked in face then gave gentle smile to Yuzu. Yuzu then jumped to him and hugged him tightly, the man hugged her tightly in return.

Mei was confused and shocked at Yuzu sudden actions, but she was also feeling jealous. She was jealous that her girlfriend suddenly let go of her hand and hugged a man in the streets. She walked up to Yuzu and the man she was hugging, as she got close to them, her fists were clenching in anger.

"How dare he be too close to Yuzu?" Mei thought with rage and Yuzu finally let the man go. She saw Mei and pulled her near the two of them.

"Mei, I want to introduce you to someone. This is an old friend of mine, his name is Jin. Ayazama Jin." Yuzu introduced the man. He smiled at Mei, who just stared at him with her anger slowly dimming down.

"Hello Mei-san, it's nice to meet you. Yuzu's told me a lot about you. Whenever we mail each other, you're all she talks about." Jin said to Mei as he reached his hand out to try to shake his hands with her.

"Jin-chan! You don't have to tell her that!" Yuzu turned and became embarrassed then started to hit him lightly on the shoulders. All Jin did was laugh at her and Yuzu continued to yell at him for embarrassing her.

"How can he act so close to Yuzu, she's even calling her by her first name with no honorifics." Mei thought angrily again and noticed his hand was still reached out to her. She grabbed it and shook hands with him to make him pay attention to her. "It's nice to meet you too, Ayazama-kun." Mei glared at him. He saw it and paid no attention to it as he smiled at her. "You can call me Jin." He told her and Mei just nodded.

"So, Yuzu told me that you two are dating. Are you two on a date right now, should we talk some other time?" He said kindly with a smile to the both of them and Mei was shocked. "It's like he knew, he was interrupting us. Well at least he knows to leave us alone." She thought feeling glad that they could continue their date.

"Its okay, Jin-chan. We haven't seen each other in a long time, so let's hang out for now. Is that alright Mei?" Yuzu asked Mei, who was a little irritated that she would pick her friend over her girlfriend.

"That's just fine." Mei could barely say it without resentment towards Jin. He stopped smiling and looked concerned at Mei. It seemed like he noticed that there was something odd with Mei.

"Really?! Thanks, Mei!" Yuzu hugged Mei, which made her feel a little better. As Yuzu hugged her, she gave a glare to Jin as if saying "She's mine" to him. All Jin did was chuckle as Mei glared at him.

Yuzu let Mei go and pulled her hand, along with Jin, to lead the both of them. She let them both go after a while and walked ahead of the two.

Jin and Mei walked behind Yuzu, close enough to not lose her. It was quiet between the two of them until Jin said something to Mei.

"She told me what happened when she confessed to you." She just stared at Jin, surprised that Yuzu would tell him her confession. "I noticed that she didn't tell me how you felt about her when she confessed. Did you not tell her how you feel about her?"

"…" Mei didn't say anything for a while then finally answered him.

"It has nothing to do with you." Mei looked at him with hate in her eyes. Jin wasn't fazed and continued speaking.

"You should really tell her how you feel." He continued and Mei had something to say to him. "Why should I listen to you."

"Because you might lose her, Mei. If you continue this, if you don't tell her you love her. She might think that you're just messing around and she'll be hurt. You'll be hurt, too." Jin finished and his eyes were full of concern for Yuzu, for Mei as well. Mei was shocked at his words and Jin started to walk faster. He reached Yuzu and started to talk with Yuzu. It was as if he was giving Mei time to think about what he said.

Mei thought about Jin's words, but didn't know if she could do it. It seemed that she thought about it for a while because they had arrived where Yuzu wanted to take them to.

It was a nice family restaurant that had lots of people in it. Yuzu thought that even if they get loud, no one would mind.

"I'll get us seats, so you two wait here." Yuzu told them and went to talk with the waitress.

"Have you thought about what I said?" Jin asked Mei, who didn't even bother to look at him.

"Yes, but I don't think I can tell her yet." Mei continued to look at where Yuzu was.

Jin noticed that she was staring at Yuzu and he smiled. "Sure you can, all you need is a little push." He told her and Yuzu came back.

"Yuzu, do you and Mei want to a couple of parties I'll be hosting." He asked Yuzu, who happily replied with a smile. "Sure, that'll be fun." Mei was a bit surprised at the sudden invitation, but agreed as well.

They entered the restaurant and sat at one of the tables. After the meal was done, Jin said goodbye to the both of them. Even after they arrive in their home, Mei was still confused at what Jin meant, but will realize it soon enough.
