After returning from the U.S., Alice and I headed to school, having finished Silver Week.
As we entered the classroom as usual, the word “transfer student” was flying around.
“Yo Sora. I heard a new student is coming today. I’m looking forward to it.”
Akira’s voice spoke from behind me. I was surprised to hear that.
“Akira…you…are you interested in something other than soccer? What is it? Do you have a fever?”
There’s no way Akira is interested in anything other than soccer! He’s definitely got some kind of disease!
“Ah? You’re wrong. He’s an ace who was in the top 16 in the nation. I’ve got my eye on him right now.”
“Oh, I see… that’s how it is. Hmm? Does that mean the new student is a guy?”
“Aah, that’s right.”
I sat down while getting information from Akira.
And while I was having a chat with Shunya and the other members of the soccer club, time passed and it was time for homeroom.
“Hey you guys, take your seats~ Today I’m going to introduce you to a new student.”
They were all anxiously waiting for the new student. I was a little curious too, but Alice was grinning at me as if she was not interested at all.
“Fuhehe… Sora’s side profile….jyururi.”
Yeah, it’s business as usual. While I was thinking that, the introductions proceeded, and the teacher said, “Come in,” with a single voice.
The young man who entered with applause was a handsome man.
“Oh…amazing…”
If there was a man who could compete with a model, it was Kouren. The other is the one that is just as good looking, but in a different genre. He was a rough wolf, but the new student was a beautiful elf.
“Kyaaa!!”
Alice’s body jumps with the girls’ cheers. She’s so cute, like a little animal.
“I am Yosuke Saionji, who was just introduced to you. I am good at sports in general. I look forward to working with you.”
He has light golden hair and spreads a fresh smile to the class. The transfer student, receiving cheers from the girls and jeers from the boys, headed for Alice’s seat.
“…Nn? What?”
As I looked at the two of them, feeling a little uneasy, the transfer student asked Alice.
“Don’t you remember me?”
He bent down and stood at the same eye level as Alice, as if he thought it would be uncivil to speak to her from above as she sits down.
“…Um, sorry. I don’t remember.”
“I see…well, that’s okay. I’m going to make you fall for me.”
“…Heh?”
I don’t understand. Alice’s face had that look on it. I don’t understand it either.
“H-Hey…what do you mean?”
“I fell in love with you at first sight. I’m going to ask you to go out with me.”
Hah!” echoed throughout the class. As for me….
“………”
I was dazed. I was out of it.
But I immediately regained my composure and spoke to the transfer student.
“Uh, you know, Saionji-kun. I’m not sure… if it’s right for you to come out of nowhere and say something like that.”
“…This is a problem between me and her. It’s not a matter for outsiders to interject.”
To be honest…I was annoyed. I wanted to say she was my girlfriend, but the transfer student’s voice was interrupted by Alice’s words.
“S-So? Your reply.”
“Sorry, I can’t.”
“Bufu!”
I was blown away. It’s the first time I’ve seen a guy get rejected by someone saying, “I can’t do it”, so it can’t be helped.
“W-Why?”
“Because I have a boyfriend, and I like him so much that my heart still feels like it’s going to burst. I can’t think about other guys.”
Alice smiled and the classroom was filled with a strange atmosphere that had never existed before.
