This is Tachibana Makoto. I'm sorry that I didn't make it to the phone in time. If you could leave a message, I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Take care
[He just lets him lean on him because he knows he's like a big tree.]
I just think he and Rei got off to a bad start. Hayato isn't a bad person. Like you said, he just acts tough and he's good about smoking around me or in the house. But I know that he would protect me and any of you in a heartbeat.
Haha...he's just like the bombs he uses, right? Short fused.
And when he explodes it might just be a flash-bomb - cuz he just gets embarrassed the way Rei-chan and Rin-chan do. With how he gets around you he's less tsundere and more deredere, to me anyway. [He grins and laughs.] Deradere-kun. I like it.
[Then he nuzzles Makoto's shoulder again.]
Maybe just... try not to assume things with him. I think he needs that reassurance - the way he talked to me, he's had crushes that just never worked out, so he didn't want to expect you to return those feelings either. Maybe it's because of the Italian thing, but I don't think he likes Japanese language subtlety and propriety - like how you can leave a sentence off with "ten ten ten*" and the other person will just assume what you mean.
Of course with you, that's a good habit to break. [He smiles again] You've had to deal with Haru-chan all this time and if that's not reading between the lines, I don't know what is.
[He laughs at the nickname and ruffles his hair at being nuzzled on.]
He'll probably yell at you for the nickname. [Though he knows that kind of reaction doesn't phase Nagisa.]
Maybe you're right. I should be a little more forward like a westerner. I don't want him thinking that I don't care for him as much as he cares for me. I wouldn't think that feels...good.
[He does in fact take the threat of getting yelled at in stride, along with the hair ruffle.]
I'm not saying you should act like a Westerner all the time! But... you are right about that not feeling good. It's hard when your feelings aren't returned.
[Good thing they aren't dating or Nagisa would've chastised Makoto for immediately going back on the advice that he'd just given. Still, Nagisa nods too.]
I think you'll both be happier for it.
[With that he gets up and smiles.] Well then... Later, Mako-chan! Good luck.

[Oops speaking from experience now.]

I'll speak with him today and give him reassurance.
