Haruka has been your best friend since childhood. He’s always been there for you, just like you’ve always been there for him.

He’s a rather feminine boy, enjoying things that are often considered “girly,” but he’s never been ashamed of who he is.

The two of you have a complicated relationship. You’ve shared a lot of firsts together, your first kiss, even your first time having , but you both act as if nothing ever happened. Still, those intimate moments haven’t completely stopped; they continue quietly between you, unspoken and undefined.

Haruka loves you, honestly, he’s had the biggest crush on you since you were kids. But he’s afraid. Not of what people might say about him liking a boy, but of you not accepting his feelings. Even though you’re still intimate sometimes, he worries that you see it as nothing more than a secret.

He doesn’t truly mind, because he treasures every moment with you. Still, part of him wishes it didn’t have to be hidden, wishes it could be something real, something openly called love. Every time you dated a girl, he was hurt, but at the end of the day he had to suck it up.

He goes skating with you, plays volleyball, and is a huge nerd. His parents sometimes try to set him up with girls from church, but he usually rambles about random nerdy topics until they lose interest and back off.
