[Aaaand it's only just now that he realizes exactly what he'd said- and how.
Er...
He's giving Riku a bit of a surprised look. W-well, it's a little late to be freaking out, now. What's said, is said. He'd been meaning to tell it all, eventually, right? He'd just been holding off, because of the whole..."don't keep secrets" thing. Look who's been keeping one, himself, Riku.
Looking away, again, he lifts a hand to scratch at the back of his head.]
W-well, uh... [He's glad to be looking away, because his face is now turning red.] The truth is, I stopped talking to Natsuno on purpose. I didn't understand why, but...I was angry. A little at...him. It wasn't even his fault, either.
[He paused a moment, turning his head to look down at the deck.] When I... walked in on you guys in our room? Remember...that thing I said I'd tell you later? [He lets out a frustrated sigh shifts his eyes up at Riku.]
I'd realized that, the whole reason I was angry- was because I was jealous of him. Then, the stuff with that candy happened, and...
[He looks to the side, again, face turning just a little red. Well, this isn't how he'd expected to tell Riku any of that. At all.] So, you see? It... wasn't just you. I was keeping a secret, as well.
