The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]-Chapter 491 THAT I’M...

WULFRIC had been agitated all day. Thinking of a lot of things, no, not really a lot, just one person, he wasn't able to fall asleep. It was probably near morning when he actually did. By the time he woke up, the sun was already shining brightly in the sky.

He planned to talk to Aster early in the morning before the other went to school. Since he couldn't sleep, he thought it would be better to just stay awake and then go to Aster's apartment early in the morning. But who would have thought that he would actually succumb to sleep?

This was all because of non-stop space travel for consecutive days. No matter how much of a high-level physique a person had, if they traveled without rest and went through a number of space warps, their body would definitely get tired. It seemed like he was no different. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜

Since he wasn't able to meet with Aster in the morning, Wulfric spent the rest of the day mulling over the state of their relationship. Which almost drove him nuts. He was more of a doer than a talker kind of guy. So, not being able to do anything just made him feel antsy and agitated.

He wanted to stay and wait for Aster beside his apartment door until the other returned, but that would just pull unnecessary attention. He got lucky last night that none of Aster's neighbors saw him. But he couldn't say the same thing would happen today, especially if he waited all day there.

Even if he did some disguise, if he continued to stand in front of Aster's apartment door for the whole day, he would surely be reported for stalking. So, his only choice was to wait at his suite until the end of Aster's class and then go down once he thought that it was time for the other to return.

Of course, he had to search for the usual schedule of freshman in the acting department of Redwood Academy. Then calculate the time it would take for someone to travel from Redwood to this apartment building. And it paid off.

He went down to Aster's apartment floor just a few minutes before the other arrived. And now, he was watching as the other walked towards his apartment room.

Seeing Aster, Wulfric felt his heart suddenly beating really fast and really hard. He wasn't even sure if it was because of excitement or nervousness. As the other took one step at a time in this direction, his heart also beat faster and faster. To the point that it felt like it would actually jump out of his body.

When Aster stood in front of him, before he could say anything, the other passed by him and opened the door of the apartment instead.

Wulfric's heart sank at that moment. A lot of negative thoughts crossed his mind. Like, was Aster angry with him? Would he not want to interact with him anymore? Was this the end? How should he fix this? Should he kneel down and apologize? Or should he just imprison him somewhere until he forgave him?

He shook his head sharply. What the fuck was that last thought?

Amidst the growing darkness that was slowly seeping into his heart, Aster glanced back and said;

"What are you still standing there for, Wulf? Aren't you going to come in?"

The moment Aster said that, Wulfric felt like the dark clouds over his head cleared and sunlight came rushing through. Bathed by the warm light, all the negative thoughts in his heart vanished in an instant.

To have an effect on his emotional state to this extent. If it was any other, he would have already done something to deal with that person. If someone existed in this universe who could easily change his decisions or actions, that person should be eliminated as quickly as possible.

He hated things that could affect him in such a way. He already had no control of his emotions most of the time. How much worse could it be when someone could actually affect him simply by existing?

But surprisingly enough, he didn't hate this feeling. And he knew why. Because the person responsible was none other than Aster. Didn't that already speak volumes? The answer was already in front of him, and yet he was too blind and stupid to see it.

Wulfric clenched and unclenched his fists. It was not in his nature to procrastinate, especially after he just had a massive realization. Because just like he said, he was more of a doer, rather than a talker.

Astrid looked at Wulfric. He wondered why the other was still frozen there, just standing like some statue. Was he shocked by something? But what could he possibly be shocked about?

He thought back to his actions a while ago. The only thing that stood up was him not greeting the other. Was that really so shocking? If that was so, he didn't know if he should be amused or also be shocked. Because wouldn't that just confirm Wulfric's degree of feelings for him?

Wulfric saw Aster tilting his head, probably wondering why he still wasn't coming in.

He smiled unconsciously. He hurried over and closed the door behind him. Standing before Aster, he already had made up his mind.

"You asked me last night why I was going this far for you and told me to think really, really hard for the answer why," he started.

Astrid didn't expect that Wulfric would go straight to this topic as soon as they met. Saying that he wasn't prepared for it would be a gross understatement. But at the same time, there was excitement stirring within him.

Because he already had a hunch about what the other would say. He was looking forward to it. But at the same time, a small part of him was also dreading it.

"And what answer did you come up with?" he asked at the end.

Wulfric stared straight at him and reached for his hands, holding it tight. "That I'm in love with you."
