Bab 123: Vaan good.

"That's because I wanted to stay alone with Vaan as well…"

Elara spoke as she buried her face into Vaan's chest.

"O-Oh…"

Vaan on the other hand, was at a loss of words.

His face turned red and in order to hide that from Elara, he placed his hand on top of her head, making sure she would not move away and see his expression.

His heart started beating quickly, Vaan feared that Elara might notice that, however, Elara was too under the influence to sense that. She just felt the extreme comfort in Vaan's arms and closed her eyes.

Vaan's head, on the other hand, were still filled with what Elara said, his reaction was stronger than what he expected. The joy he felt when Elara said those words…

The feeling of accomplishment when Elara indirectly chose him over that Elric bitch, it was foreign to him.

"Vaan…" Suddenly, Vaan heard Elara's voice.

"W-What is it?" He stuttered.
