[00:03] Hotaru     I always thought I'd never be able     to fall in love, [00:07] Hotaru     but now, for the first time in     my life, I have a boyfriend. SIGN    Episode 2 SIGN    My First Boyfriend [01:51] Hotaru     Hananoi-kun! Good morning. [01:54] Hananoi     Good morning, Hotaru-chan. [01:57] Hotaru     Starting today, I'm his girlfriend. [02:02] Hotaru     This is Hananoi-kun from the class next door. [02:05] Hotaru     He asked me out the day after we met.     You could say he's something of an odd duck. [02:11] (Flashback) Hotaru     Do you think even I might     fall in love someday? [02:15] (Flashback) Hananoi     I know you will. [02:17] Hotaru     With just those few words,     Hananoi-kun gave me so much courage. [02:24] Hotaru     Hananoi-kun? [02:26] Hananoi     An angel. [02:31] Hotaru     An angel? [02:32] Hananoi     Oh, sorry. [02:33] Hananoi     Did I say that out loud? [02:35] Hotaru     He is just a little strange. [02:38] Hotaru     It sure got a lot colder today. [02:45] Hananoi     Huh? Hotaru-chan, don't you have gloves? [02:49] Hotaru     I was running late and forgot them. [02:51] Hananoi     Are you okay? [02:53] Hananoi     You can use mine if you want. [02:56] Hotaru     Thanks! But I run warm anyway,     so I'll be fine. [03:01] Hananoi     Okay... [03:02] Hotaru     What? Did I say something wrong? [03:05] Hotaru     Come to think of it... [03:07] (Flashback) Hibiki     You gotta be careful when you're dating. [03:10] (Flashback) Hibiki     Don't wanna embarrass your     boyfriend or anything. [03:14] Boy student     Here. Take this. [03:16] Boy student     I'll let you use it. [03:18] Girl student     Thanks! It's so warm! [03:21] Hotaru     I see. [03:22] Hotaru     Maybe now that we're dating,     I can't keep behaving the same way. [03:28] Hotaru     And so... [03:30] Hotaru     I would like to discuss our     policies going forward. [03:35] Hananoi     Policies? [03:36] Hananoi     Huh? [03:37] Hotaru     What do you do when you're going out? [03:40] Hotaru     Don't you have goals and things     you want to do with a girlfriend? [03:45] Hananoi     Uh... I guess so. [03:48] Hananoi     I guess eventually getting buried next     to each other would make me happy. [03:55] Hotaru     It's over before it even started. [03:57] Hotaru     H-Hananoi-kun, that's not what I mean! [04:00] Hotaru     More like, you know, normal kissing     and hugging, whispering sweet nothings, [04:03] Hotaru     and fooling around and stuff! [04:04] Hananoi     You want to fool around with me, Hotaru-chan? [04:08] Hotaru     Fool... Fool around? [04:11] Hotaru     F-Foo... Foola round? Foo la round? [04:11] Hananoi     Listen, we don't have to rush things. [04:13] Hananoi     You can just be your usual self. [04:16] Hananoi     I'm the one who's trying     to get you to you love me. [04:21] Student     I'm so tired... [04:25] Hotaru     Is it really okay for me to just do nothing? [04:28] Tsukiha     I never dreamed you two would     actually start dating. [04:33] Hibiki     I, for one, still don't accept it! [04:36] Tsukiha     And you are? [04:37] Hibiki     Even if it's just a trial run,     taking my dear Hotaru like this... [04:41] Hotaru     I think I'm just letting Hananoi-kun     spoil me with his love. [04:46] Hotaru     I feel like I should be doing my part too. [04:50] Hotaru     So I can learn... what     it feels like to like someone. [04:58] Hotaru     So, anyway, what is a girlfriend      supposed to do? [05:01] Hibiki     Oh boy... [05:01] Tsukiha     You're so naive. SIGN    The Next Day [05:05] Hotaru     Okay, Hananoi-kun. [05:07] Hotaru     See you on the way home. [05:08] Hananoi     Um, Hotaru-chan,     I'd like to give you these first. [05:15] Hotaru     What are all these notebooks? [05:17] Hananoi     Finals are coming up, so I took notes on      likely questions for each subject yesterday. [05:22] Hotaru     For each subject? You mean every single one?     And all in one day?! [05:25] Hananoi     I worked hard. [05:28] Hotaru     Wow... Thank you. [05:34] Hotaru     Um, did you stay up all ni— [05:36] Hananoi     Oh, that's the bell. [05:39] Hananoi     Homeroom's about to start. See you. [05:42] Hotaru     U-Um, wait. Hananoi-kun! [05:47] Hotaru     I've gotta do something girlfriendy.     Something girlfriendy... SIGN    "Bye-bye,     darling"? SIGN    A kiss? SIGN    A hug? [05:50] Hotaru     Something girlfriendy! [06:04] Hananoi     Bye for now. See you after school. [06:13] Tsukiha     These notes are incredible.     They're super easy to understand. [06:17] Hotaru     I'm really grateful, but it's starting     to feel like he's spoiling me too much. [06:22] Tsukiha     When you like someone,     don't you want to do everything for them? [06:25] Hibiki     Yeah, but isn't this kinda overdoing it? [06:29] Hotaru     You want to do everything, huh? [06:31] Hotaru     It's been like this     since the hairpin incident. [06:34] Hotaru     But he keeps telling me     I don't need to do anything... [06:39] Girl student     Then I'll give you this. [06:41] Boy student     Here, to pay you back. [06:43] Girl student     Oh, yay! [06:44] Boy student     What are your favorites? [06:45] Hotaru     I'm just taking. [06:48] Hotaru     It's only a trial, but shouldn't      both people be having fun [06:53] Hotaru     when you're going out together? [07:02] Hibiki     You'll be fine! You've got what it takes. [07:05] Tsukiha     Yeah, I don't think we need to worry. [07:07] Hotaru     Sorry I'm such an amateur at love. [07:10] Hotaru     But I still can't figure out     what I'm supposed to do. [07:14] Tsukiha     If you want to do more than just receive, [07:16] Tsukiha     why not try doing some of the same things for Hananoi-san that he's done for you? [07:24] Hotaru     Of course... [07:27] Hotaru     See you later! [07:29] Hotaru     I left half an hour early,     which should be plenty of time. [07:33] Hotaru     When I thought about it, [07:34] Hotaru     I realized that Hananoi-kun     is always waiting for me. [07:38] Hotaru     I wonder if he'll be surprised     to find me waiting for him. [07:42] Hotaru     I can't make nice study guides for him, [07:45] Hotaru     but this is something I can do! [07:47] Hananoi     Oh? Hotaru-chan? [07:49] Hananoi     Good morning. You sure are early today. [07:52] Hotaru     This is harder than I thought! SIGN    The Second Morning [07:58] Hotaru     Forty-five minutes early... [08:00] Hotaru     I'll definitely get there first today. [08:03] Hananoi     Good morning, Hotaru-chan. SIGN    The Third Morning [08:08] Hotaru     M-Maybe if I'm an hour early. [08:11] Hotaru     This time for sure! [08:13] Hananoi     Good morning, Hotaru-chan. [08:15] Hotaru     H-Hananoi-kun, how long      have you been waiting? [08:20] Hananoi     I just got here. [08:24] Hotaru     You big liar. [08:27] Hotaru     If you keep coming out      to wait in the cold, you'll get sick! [08:31] Hananoi     But I want to spend every     second I can with you. [08:36] Hotaru     E-Every second? [08:40] Hotaru     I'm sorry, but I still don't understand     what that feels like yet. [08:47] Hotaru     Is this okay? [08:49] Hotaru     Am I really going to be able     to fall in love like this? SIGN    The Fourth Morning [08:56] Hotaru     Two hours early! [08:59] Hotaru     At this point, I'm just being stubborn, but... [09:02] Hotaru     Let's see! [09:05] Hotaru     All right! I win! [09:09] Hotaru     Hananoi-kun always sits here reading     a book while he waits for me. [09:18] Hotaru     It's so quiet. [09:22] Hotaru     I wonder how he'll react     when he finds me waiting for him. [09:25] Hotaru     He was so insistent on getting here     first, I wonder if he'll be angry. [09:29] Hananoi     Hotaru-chan! [09:30] Hotaru     I wonder what he's like when he's mad... [09:34] Hotaru     Or will he be surprised? Will he be happy? [09:38] Hotaru     Will he get here soon? [09:42] Hotaru     Oh, did I just... [09:46] Hananoi     Hotaru-chan? [09:47] Hotaru     Hananoi-kun! Good morning! [09:49] Hotaru     He's here a lot sooner than I expected! [09:52] Hananoi     What are you doing here so early? [09:55] Hotaru     Um, I wanted to do something g-girlfriendy, [10:00] Hotaru     so I thought it might be nice     to wait for you for a change. [10:04] Hotaru     I didn't realize you got here      this early every day. [10:08] Hotaru     A-Are you mad at me? [10:10] Hananoi     No, of course not. [10:12] Hananoi     I'm just surprised. Nobody's     ever waited for me before. [10:18] Hotaru     Um, listen. [10:20] Hotaru     While I was waiting, I got all     excited imagining how you'd react. [10:26] Hotaru     Waiting for someone is lots of fun! [10:33] Hananoi     You were thinking about me      while you waited? [10:38] Hananoi     I see... [10:40] Hotaru     He looks overjoyed. [10:44] Hotaru     I did something that made     someone really happy... [10:48] Hotaru     I've never done that before.     It kind of makes me happy too. [10:54] Hotaru     I'm so thrilled. [10:56] Hotaru     I think I understand how it feels     to be a girlfriend a little bit now. [11:02] Hananoi     Hotaru-chan, are you okay? [11:04] Hananoi     I'm so sorry. I made you     wait out here in the col— [11:10] Hotaru     See? It makes you worry, right? [11:12] Hotaru     Waiting for two hours is just too long. [11:16] Hotaru     Wanna hit the corner store to warm up? [11:18] Hananoi     Yeah. [11:19] Hotaru     Hananoi-kun, I want to see     you happy a lot more. [11:30] Hananoi     Hotaru-chan? [11:32] Hananoi     What are you writing? [11:34] Hotaru     I had a great idea. SIGN    Things We Want to Do [11:37] Hananoi     "Things we want to do"? [11:39] Hotaru     I just bought it. [11:42] Hotaru     What would you say to writing down things     we want to do together in this notebook? [11:48] Hotaru     Then we can make good on them in turns. [11:53] Hotaru     Slowly, like beginners.     We'll start with the easy things. SIGN    I want to get croquettes at the butcher shop by the station after school with you SIGN    Let's find more foods we both like [12:06] Hotaru     What do you think? [12:08] Hananoi     This'll be a piece of cake. [12:11] Hotaru     You should write one right now too. [12:25] Hotaru     Is that all you want? [12:28] Hotaru     You sure don't ask for much. [12:31] Hotaru     Piece of cake! SIGN    I want SIGN    to hold hands SIGN    while walking [12:51] Hotaru     That day, when I took Hananoi-kun's     hand for the first time, [12:55] Hotaru     it was a little cold and bigger than mine. [12:59] Hotaru     I was holding a boy's hand. [13:12] Hananoi     I want... SIGN    Things We Want to Do [13:14] Hananoi     a lot more than you realize. SIGN    I want to make you mine alone [13:20] Hotaru     It's already been three weeks     since Hananoi-kun and I started temporarily SIGN    I want to get croquettes at the butcher shop by the station      after school with you [13:24] Hotaru     quote, unquote "dating." [13:27] Hotaru & Hananoi     Let's eat! [13:30] Hotaru     Day by day, [13:33] Hotaru     just a little at a time, [13:35] Hotaru     spending time with him is starting     to feel more and more natural. [13:39] Hotaru     I braced myself at first, [13:41] Hotaru     thinking we might do the things     lovers do since we're going out. SIGN    I want to spend Christmas Eve with you [13:45] Hotaru     But Hananoi-kun's requests     are always very gentle. [13:49] Hotaru     I thought things might just continue     to pass this quiet, peaceful way [13:55] Hotaru     until we reached our Christmas     expiration date. And yet... [14:00] Hibiki     Here, Hotaru. Your present. [14:02] Hotaru     Wow! [14:03] Hibiki     Since I can't see you on Christmas Eve. [14:05] Hotaru     Thank you! [14:06] Hibiki     By the way, isn't your time     with Hananoi-kun up on Christmas? [14:10] Hotaru     Yeah. SIGN    See you SIGN    Have a great year! [14:12] Hotaru     Only three more days...     It sure went by fast. [14:15] Hibiki     So, how's it actually been thus far? [14:18] Hotaru     He's a really sweet, nice guy. [14:20] Hotaru     It's relaxing being with him,     even when time passes slowly. [14:24] Hotaru     I'm honestly a little sad     it'll all be over in three days. [14:27] Hibiki     Th-Then... [14:28] Hotaru     But I'm still not sure if the way     I like him is something like love. [14:32] Hotaru     The other day, I ended up saying to him, [14:34] Hotaru     "If I stay like this and can't fall in love,     I still want to be friends with you." [14:40] (Flashback) Hananoi     No way. [14:42] Hotaru     That's what he said in turn. [14:44] Hananoi     So you still aren't committed. [14:47] Hotaru     It's just really difficult for me. [14:49] Keigo     The answer is simple! [14:51] Keigo     You should try kissing him. [14:53] Hotaru     Huh?! Kei-chan?! SIGN    This is Kyo-chan's boyfriend, Keigo-kun [14:56] Keigo     If someone you don't like gets close,     you pull back. Like you did just now. [15:00] Keigo     Even I do it. Before Hibiki and I     started dating, when she stole a kiss... [15:08] Hibiki     Sorry, but could you forget     you ever heard that? [15:12] Keigo     Anyway, Hananoi is a good dude, huh?     Not at all how I imagined him. [15:17] Hotaru     Huh? [15:19] Keigo     He's real prickly in class.     Just be careful, Hinase-san. [15:23] Keigo     You seem pretty straitlaced, y'know? [15:25] Keigo     The guys in my class totally think he's     just taking advantage of— [15:29] Hotaru     Kei-chan-san! [15:30] Hibiki     I'm sorry! He's being so rude. [15:34] Hotaru     I-It's okay. [15:36] Hibiki     But to be honest, I find Hananoi-kun     kinda hard to read too. [15:41] Hibiki     Still, he's got good taste if he chose you. [15:45] Hibiki     Anyway, no matter how things     turn out, I'm on your side. [15:48] Hotaru     Yeah, I appreciate it. [16:03] Hotaru     Oh? Hananoi-kun? [16:07] Hotaru     I told you to head home without me today. [16:10] Hananoi     I know. [16:10] Hananoi     But it's the last day of class and I wanted      to spend a little more time with you. [16:15] Hotaru     Okay. If you'd told me sooner... [16:19] Hotaru     You said you would start waiting     for me somewhere warm, right? [16:22] Hananoi     Sorry. [16:23] Hotaru     Want to hit the corner store again? [16:25] Girl student A     Hey, see those two? [16:27] Girl student B     Yeah. Hananoi-kun's girlfriend     looks so boring. What a shocker. [16:31] Girl student A     If I was her, I wouldn't have     had the guts to say yes to him. [16:38] Hananoi     None of them get it. [16:41] Hananoi     They don't know how much I admire you. [16:46] Hotaru     Admire? [16:48] Hananoi     Say, we can't hang out     at the corner store for that long. [16:52] Hananoi     Wanna go to my place? [16:53] Hotaru     You mean your house? [16:55] Hananoi     Yeah. I want to talk to you     about Christmas and stuff. [16:58] Hotaru     Okay. [17:00] Hotaru     Don't mind me... [17:07] Hotaru     Wow! [17:09] Hotaru     It looks just like I pictured     your place would be! [17:12] Hotaru     Are your parents at work right now? [17:15] Hananoi     Yeah. They go overseas a lot,     so they aren't usually home. [17:22] Hotaru     What do they do? [17:24] Hananoi     They're both doctors. [17:25] Hotaru     Whoa. [17:27] Hotaru     Wait, does that mean you're     always home alone? [17:31] Hananoi     My grandmother comes     to check on me on the weekends. [17:35] Hotaru     I see. [17:36] Hananoi     Ah, sorry. There's no food     in the house right now. [17:40] Hananoi     Want to order sushi? [17:42] Hotaru     I can't do that! [17:44] Hotaru     Is it normal to order sushi all the time? [17:47] Hananoi     I guess I'm just getting      carried away since you're here. [17:52] Hotaru     Um, are you okay, Hananoi-kun? [17:55] Hotaru     Your face is all red even     though we're inside now. [17:58] Hananoi     I'm totally fine. I'll make some tea,     so why don't you wait in my room? [18:07] Hotaru     Wow! So this what Hananoi-kun's     room is like. [18:11] Hotaru     He has a ton of books. [18:14] Hotaru     Kinda reminds me of my grandpa's house. [18:17] Hotaru     These all look really difficult. [18:21] Hotaru     This is the only shelf with a curtain. [18:33] Hananoi     Don't open that. [18:35] Hotaru     I-I'm sorry! I wasn't actually going to peek. [18:39] Hananoi     It's my Hotaru-chan shrine. [18:42] Hananoi     If you want to peek, you'd best be prepared. [18:45] Hotaru     He's got a shrine for me? N-Now I'm dying     to know what's behind that curtain. [18:50] Hotaru     But I'm too scared to look! [18:54] Hotaru     I-I think I'm good. [18:56] Hananoi     Okay. [19:00] Hotaru     You know, you're kind of a mystery,      Hananoi-kun. [19:03] Hananoi     You just noticed? [19:05] Hananoi     You're pretty unusual yourself, Hotaru-chan. [19:08] Hotaru     Am I? My family always tells     me that I'm way too normal. [19:12] Hananoi     Well, most normal folks stay away     from people they find strange. [19:16] Hananoi     Plus, when someone's alone     with a guy in his room, [19:20] Hananoi     they'd keep their guard up     since he might try something. [19:22] Hotaru     Y-You mean something lovey-dovey? [19:25] Hananoi     Yeah, yeah. Something lovey-dovey. [19:29] Hotaru     I can't imagine anyone wanting     to do anything like that to me. [19:33] Hotaru     When I hear my friends talking about it,     it just sounds so alien to me. [19:35] Keigo     Our first kiss was in the gym. [19:38] Hibiki     Can it! [19:39] Hananoi     You'd say that with me right here? [19:41] Hotaru     Ah, sorry. [19:44] Hananoi     I guess to you,     I'm still not a boyfriend yet. [19:49] Hotaru     U-Um, that's not what I meant. [19:52] Hananoi     It's fine. We're doing this trial     to figure that out, after all. [19:57] Hananoi     But you know, I said this before, but I     have no intention of becoming your friend. [20:03] Hananoi     To me, that would feel like being     one random member of a big crowd. [20:07] Hananoi     I want to be someone special to you. [20:10] Hotaru     A-And if you can't be? [20:13] Hananoi     If I can't, then you'll never see me again. [20:25] Hotaru     Say, I have an idea. [20:28] Hotaru     Would you mind trying to kiss me once? [20:34] Hotaru     Are you okay? [20:35] Hotaru     Er, of course I don't mean actually kissing.     Just holding our faces close together. [20:41] Hotaru     My friend's boyfriend told me      if you do that, you'll know [20:45] Hotaru     whether you really like someone or not. [20:48] Hotaru     Holding hands and hugging are     things you do even with friends, [20:52] Hotaru     but with a kiss, I think I'd     know if it didn't feel right. So... [20:57] Hananoi     Okay. [20:58] Hananoi     Let's try kissing. [21:00] Hotaru     Thank you! I'm sorry to ask      something so weird. [21:04] Hotaru     And if you don't like it,     we can stop right away. [21:07] Hananoi     Hotaru-chan. [21:09] Hananoi     Close your eyes. [21:14] Hotaru     Okay. [21:16] Hotaru     Wait, the mood feels totally different now. [21:20] Hotaru     Not being able to see is making me nervous. [21:32] Hananoi     You shouldn't let someone do this if     you aren't even sure you like them. [21:46] Hananoi     It may not mean anything to you, [21:51] Hananoi     but it's different for me. [21:54] Hananoi     Even holding your hand,     even just touching you... [21:59] Hananoi     makes my heart ache so badly.
