A Sweet Romance That Starts With One Bottle of Juice, Between a Heiress Who Must Marry Her First Kiss and a Lonesome Guy With a Menacing Look - Chapter 5 - The Young Lady Wants to Be More Intimate - Part 2

Chapter 5 – The Young Lady Wants to Be More Intimate – Part 2

The whole class started to buzz as we entered the classroom B of Year 1.

It was a surprise because the introvert and extrovert of the class were coming in together.

As I recall, the extrovert boys in this class were competing to see who would go out with Yasunomihara Yuuka first, which made it even more painful to be stared at by them.

When we sat down, the two gals from earlier came up to Yasunomihara-san.

“Yuuka, can I ask you something?”

“Yuuka-chan, are you~going out with Yasuda-kun?”

Tanaka-san, a gal with a sharp personality, and Nambu-san, a gal with a gentle personality, took turns talking.

That was a very straightforward question.

Hopefully Yasunomihara-san can cover it up well.

“Yes, that’s right.”

Her answer’s straightforward, too!?

The moment Yasunomihara-san made her shocking statement, the class buzz became even more intense.

My high school life is about to be ruined.

Harassed by outgoing guys and disliked by girls… It’s clear as day what the worst possible outcome will be from now on.

“…Really, are you serious?”

“Yes. Is there a problem?”

The two gals looked at each other.

“I don’t have a problem with it. I just didn’t expect it.”

“Yuuka-chan was all “I’m not interested~” when she was talking about love, but look at you now~”

“Please don’t make fun of me.”

The youthful gal, Nambu-san, didn’t seem to mind when she found out it was me on the other end.

“……”

…But Tanaka-san has been staring at me silently since a while ago.

In fact, Tanaka-san is the only one in this high school who came from the same junior high school as me, and I had a bit of trouble with her in the past.

…I wonder if she still holds a grudge.

“Ah, it’s time for morning homeroom, we’re going back~. You can tell us all about it later~”

“Okay, Nanbu-san. See you later, Tanaka-san.”

“…Ah, yeah.”

Tanaka-san was staring at me until the end.

I didn’t say anything and had to stare out the window.

—Yasuda, come with me.

If I knew something like this was going to happen, I should have gotten some tranquilisers from Natsume-san.

“Tadakuni?”

“Eh! W-What?”

“Are you okay?”

“W-What do you mean?”

“You didn’t look so good… Did something happen?”

“That’s because Yasunomihara-san suddenly revealed our relationship and I got a stomach ache.”

When I blurted that out, Yasunomihara-san tilted her head.

“It’s something that will eventually be found out, and I thought it was better to make it a known fact.”

“You didn’t have to do that.”

“I had to. If people don’t know about us, there might be girls who will try to seduce Tadakuni.”

I don’t know if I’d call her shrewd or cautious.

In just a few days, she’s started talking like she’s my real girlfriend. (She is my real girlfriend.)

“You know, no girl is interested in a loner guy like me.”

“That kind of carelessness can be fatal. Well, in my case, it really could be a matter of life and death. Ahahaha.”

“Stop with the sudden heavy-handed dark jokes…”

Yasunomihara-san spoke casually with a smile.

“Hah… I’m looking only at Yasunomihara-san. Don’t worry.”

“T-Tadakuni, we’re in the classroom, you know!”

Which one of us was it that made a bold comment just now?

Even though it would be a hit to her image if it were known that she was dating someone like me… I wonder if it was really a good thing for her.

“Speaking of which, Tadakuni, are you free during your lunch break?”

“Lunch break? Yeah, I’m free.”

“Then why don’t we go to the roof at lunchtime? I’ve made lunch for you.”
