◆Inoue Aimi’s POV◆

 

Finally getting rid of one nuisance, Inoue is joyed by the fact that she doesn’t have to worry about a narcissist trying to ruin her day with her beloved. With him out of the way, Inoue wouldn’t have to feel bothered by people who would usually get in her way. Now just one person is the one she’s worried about, Hasegawa Miya.

 

“She is a childhood friend of Itsuki-kun. I need to make sure that she’s kept in check.” Inoue is dead serious about being wary of Hasegawa. She can’t help but be worried about that girl, one being is that Hasegawa herself is attractive and is close with Sano. 

 

Feeling no choice, Inoue had decided to have a “talk” with Hasegawa. 

 

“Miya-san~~, would it be alright if we could have a “talk”? I just want to know something if possible, would you mind?” Inoue asked, smiling, her eyes weren’t smiling when she looked at Hasegawa.

 

“U-Uhh, Oh...s-sure, Inoue-san.” Hasegawa replied nervously. 

 

“Oh, there’s no need to call me that. Miya-san can call me by name, I don’t mind.” She sweetly spoke, asking Hasegawa to be casual towards her. 

 

“O-Okay, Aimi...san.”

 

“Yep yep, that’s good.” Inoue says with her eyes still not smiling like the rest of her facial expression.

 

“Would it be fine if we talk in *private*?” Inoue emphasised so to make Hasegawa not refuse her invitation.

 

“Y-Yes, that would be fine.” Hasegawa is starting to get scared not knowing Inoue could want from her.

 

Having her consent, Inoue led Hasegawa into an isolated classroom to talk to her privately. Closing the door, Inoue spoke bluntly, asking Hasegawa a question that was unexpected to be asked of her.

 

“Do you like Itsuki-kun?” It was a cold yet blunt voice that came out from Inoue. Hearing this, Hasegawa became befuddled as she didn't know what she could’ve meant when Inoue asked that of her. 

 

“W-What do you mean by that, Aimi-san?” 

 

“Oh, I’m only asking if you were looking at my Itsuki-kun romantically. You know what I mean by that, right?” Inoue replied with her cold voice, making Hasegawa scared of her.

 

Realising the intent of Inoue’s question, Hasegawa shakes her head left and right in a hurried manner all the while speaking, “No, no Aimi-san!! I don’t see Itsuki that way!! We are just friends!! Please believe me!!”

 

“I see. You’re just friends, I’m glad. If you weren’t I would’ve done something “bad”.” Inoue said as she showed her hands that were holding a taser in a tight grip.

 

Hasegawa’s eyes turned white seeing that, “...She’s dangerous!! Itsuki!! Your girlfriend’s dangerous!?!?”

 

“U-Uhhh...Aimi-san…? You weren’t really planning on using that on me, are you?” Hasegawa wanted to make sure. Inoue was dangerous after all.

 

“Oh, there’s no need for this anymore, Miya-san. Don’t worry.” Inoue says as her dead eyes gazes at Hasegawa.

 

Seeing her dead eyes, Hasegawa couldn’t help but cower in fear inside her mind. “She is seriously bad news. I wish you a happy relationship, Itsuki.” Hasegawa, fearing for her life, started wishing a happy relationship for Itsuki, putting all responsibilities to him for being with Inoue.

 

“Let’s get along from now on, okay? Miya-san. I wish to be friends with you.” Inoue says as she moves her right hand forward to ask for a handshake from Hasegawa.

 

“Y-Yes, s-same here. Aimi-san.” Hasegawa had no choice, she had to do it to not get on the bad side of Inoue.

◆Sano Itsuki’s POV◆

 

“Uhm...Aimi, why were you with Mi-chan?” Sano asked curiously as he saw Inoue walking with Hasegawa as they came back in the classroom.

 

“Nothing much, I just asked Miya-san some “questions”.” Sano felt odd as he heard Inoue emphasize the word “question”. 

 

“What could’ve she questioned Mi-chan about? Also she calls her by her first name, are they close now?” Sano was curious, seeing that Inoue was going out of her way to get along with someone else. 

 

◆◇◆

 

Dismissal came, it was already time to go home. Inoue asked Sano to go home together. 

 

“Itsuki-kun♡, let’s go home together♡.” 

 

“Sure, let’s go.” Sano replied, Inoue smiling happily as he accepted her request.

 

“Yes♡, after school date♡ with my Itsuki-kun♡!!” Inoue added as she spoke out cutely. Seeing that cute side of her, Sano couldn’t help but smile at her genuinely. 

 

As they went out of school, students kept eyeing them looking at them curiously. The students felt conflicted seeing their school Idol, Inoue intimately clings on a student they hardly recognize. They felt dejected seeing that their most popular girl in school is in a relationship.

 

Sano is troubled feeling the jealous stares of the other boys in his surrounding. He couldn’t handle the hurtful stares that were being given to him.

 

“Ah, a crepe stand. Let’s go eat some crepe, Itsuki-kun♡.” Inoue said excitedly as she pointed at a crepe stand.

 

“Alright.” Sano replied somewhat excitedly as he gets to eat a food he doesn’t buy much in his everyday life. It was a change of everyday occurrences for him.

 

Overhearing their conversation, the students that were going the same way as them, had their hurtful stares go up even further making Sano feel a more troubled expression.

 

The couple then went to the crepe stand ordering the flavor of crepe they set their sights on. Inoue had a very satisfied and happy expression on her face as she ate her crepe that they had bought. She was happy getting to spend her time with her lover. 

 

Seeing that, Sano smiled genuinely as he looked at the expression Inoue was making. 

 

Inoue noticing that smiling gaze of Sano towards her, blushed as she felt embarrassed getting that kind of gaze from her lover.

 

“Please stop looking at me, you’re making me embarrassed.” Inoue said covering her face with both her hands as she blushed hard from feeling the kind gaze Sano was giving her. 

 

Sano chuckled seeing the cute actions of Inoue, ignoring the increasing hurtful gazes of the people in his surroundings. 

 

The both of them happily spent their time as they went home.
