You finally gathered courage.

You're finally going to confess.

With a letter in the backpack, you wrote "Meet me on the rooftop," and waited.

You were anxious, afraid that no one would show up, but everything went well, at least until now.

You said, "I like you! Please go out with me!"

"I'm sorry... I like you, but we can't be together."

"Why?"

"Because I am..."

"Because I am... Normal." She muttered.

I felt my heart ache.

... I hated that word, "Ah, of course..." I held the hem of my skirt and averted my eyes. I didn't want to look at her.

Of course she would be... Of course she too would be...

"I'm sorry." She said and moved past me, instantly leaving the rooftop.

I didn't stop her. I didn't say anything. I didn't even ask if we could still be friends.

I just sat down and started crying.

Why do I keep falling for girls like her...? Why do I keep misreading them? Why do I have to feel this pain over and over again?

... Why do I have to hear those words over and over again?

I buried my head on my knees, "There's nothing wrong with being a lesbian... I'm normal too... I'm normal..."

The tears showed no sign of stopping...

“Already in a relationship with the other you.”

You stumble backwards in shock.

So they were the one that you had forgotten in the accident. They were the one scribbled out of photos and cut out of yearbooks.

“I don’t know that I can be with you until I have mourned what we had in the past. I know you don’t deserve this answer, and I so, so want to be with you, but all I’ll do is push too far and blame you for not being who you were.”

“I… understand.”

“I can’t ask you to wait for me for that long, but maybe one day we will find a way back to each other as two new people. If it’s meant to be, may the heavens guide us together.”

A single tear drips down your face but you power through. You are willing to wait a lifetime for the person who makes you feel whole, but you also don’t want to fall in love with a memory of the past.

This is for the best.

Perhaps you will find each other later, or perhaps someone new. But that is the heartache and joy of life.

"Because I am... you from next year. I came back here to save you, but I can't stay longer than I remember you being here, or I'll break the stable timeloop and you'll die." She paused, pondering. "...which means I'll die?" A nod, decisive. "If I break the stable timeloop, we'll both die."

"...what?" The color drained from my face. All the little hints that I had pushed out of my mind... how time sometimes seemed to stop around her... how similar she looked to me, hair and eye color aside... how much she seemed to know about me... how she was always there when I was really down. I had kind of just assumed she was a very sweet stalker? Which was maybe a foolish way to look at things, but I had survived so far despite my repeated foolishness, if only because of her... she had saved me every time....

She smiled awkwardly, face a little flushed. I'm sure mine was too. "Sorry. I remember how awkward this was for us. I love you too... but in a way, I'll always be with you, right?" She traced her fingertips against my arm. "Close your eyes?"

I closed my eyes, and felt her warm lips press the slightest bit against mine, before disappearing again.

When I opened my eyes, she was gone.

I took a long shuddering breath, entirely unsure how to feel about all of this.

I had to save her... or rather, myself? Which meant I had maybe a year to get ready to set up the stable timeloop.

I closed my eyes once more, and my resolve sharpened as I honed my focus towards my goal.

I was the one who would save us now.

The worst thing about these writing prompts is that I can't think of anything to write myself...

"I'm sorry... I like you, but we can't be together."

"Why?"

"Because I am... The Demon Queen you've been hunting all this time!"

You recoil in shock, clutching at your chest to calm your heart. It can't be true, you refuse to let it be true!

One moment and reality fell apart around the two of you. This school wasn't a school, not at all. You don't even know where this school fantasy came from.

"No!"

"But yes! And now, suffer, Hero!" The Demon Queen screamed and the spell flew off her hands, landing right in your chest.

You expected death, pain that no mortal can imagine, you even expected to see a hole in your chest, to see something missing. What you didn't expect was to be turned into a cat! How could this be?!

"Ara~ ara~ what a cute kitty we have here? What to do with you?"

Now, struggling in the clutches of the vile woman, you truly regret being a Hero.

What will happen next? Read the next chapter in the best manga in the whole world: "The Arch-Villain Demon Queen turned the Me, the Hero, into a Pet Cat?!" to find out!
