My Yandere Girlfriend Is Obsessed With Me For Some Reason

Haruto… is dead.

Haruto, who was my only friend at this school, has disappeared. Unbelievable situation. But in this situation where my friend has died… I remembered something I was trying to forget.

There was a similar incident before.

“Is that Ichinose-kun?”

“…”

“Ichinose-kun!”

“Y-yes! U-um, Mizuhara-san? W-what’s wrong?”

“You’ve been standing in front of the vending machine in a daze, what’s up? Did something happen?”

“N-no. It’s nothing! I’m just a little tired…”

Kyoko glanced at Ibuki’s neck, noticing the bright red mark on his neck.

“Shall we take a walk, Ichinose-kun?”

“Huh?”

With a face that seemed like she wanted to talk about something, Mizuhara handed me an apple juice.

Come to think of it, Mizuhara used to be Haruto’s girlfriend. Maybe she’s going to talk about the deceased Haruto…? Or maybe, again…

She must have given up on me already.

Besides, I don’t want to think about that right now.

“Hey, recently… I’ve been hearing strange rumors.”

“Strange rumors? About Haruto?”

“I saw the news about Haruto-kun, but it’s not about that now.”

“Yes…”

“I heard a rumor that Ichinose-kun is fooling around with girls, is it true? If it’s a misunderstanding! I’ll explain it to everyone! I want you to tell me properly.”

“Before that, can I ask why such rumors spread?”

“Because there were always… those… hickies on Ichinose-kun’s neck. Everyone knows. You can tell just by looking, it was always in a visible place. Besides… Ichinose-kun is cool, so I got worried.”

“Oh, I see.”

Certainly, I didn’t hide the hickies or bite marks on my neck.

I couldn’t hide them, but since I was already an outcast in the class, I didn’t think anyone would be interested in me even if they saw. Since the day Haruto disappeared, I had been alone and had no friends, so I always relied on Sensei.

I return to Sensei’s house.

Because there is a teacher there who cares for me.

I see, everyone was looking at my neck. So that’s why the rumor of “fooling around with girls” spread, Mizuhara is kind… Asking me such a troublesome thing for my sake. But it’s not good to waste time on trivial matters…

I felt that gaze.

I don’t want to do anything unnecessary, but maybe I should clarify things.

I might say something strange again.

“Ichinose-kun…?”

“I have a girlfriend now. She’s a bit… intense in showing affection, so if you’re concerned about these marks on my body, I’ll go home and talk to her properly. Is that okay?”

“Girlfriend? A girlfriend?”

“Yes. So… please don’t worry. I’m not doing what everyone thinks. And I think you don’t need to worry about the rumors either. I’ve been alone for a long time, so even if such rumors tarnish my image, it’s fine.”

“But…!”

“Mizuhara-san is a good person. But… please don’t worry about someone like me anymore. Thank you for your concern.”

I might have relied on Haruto quite a bit after all.

Well, he was my only friend, so it couldn’t be helped. But even if I think about such things now that he’s gone, it’s meaningless, I want to go home quickly and… be comforted by Sensei. For some reason, my heart is pounding so hard. This is… the fear I felt at that time. I want to be embraced by Sensei quickly and be comforted.

I’ve had enough.

“Then, I’ll go back to class! Mizuhara-san, please go back soon too. The bell will ring.”

After saying that, Ibuki returned to the classroom.

And Kyoko, who was staring at his back, was left behind.

…

“Ah, Ik-kun! Welcome back!”

“…”

“What’s wrong?”

I tried to forget.

I tried to forget everything that happened today, and what happened back then.

But I couldn’t.

And I… felt lonely again.

So, I wanted to ask. I wanted to ask Sensei about it.

“Reina…”

“What’s wrong? You look like you’re about to cry… Did something happen at school? Or at work? What’s wrong, Ik-kun!”

“Reina… will always be by my side, right?”

“Huh? Of course! I will never leave Ik-kun, I promise! No matter what happens from now on, I will be by Ik-kun’s side! Don’t worry, don’t think about such things anymore!”

I thought I wouldn’t say such things anymore, but I felt the growing anxiety deep down in my heart due to Haruto’s situation. Sensei… taught me many things when I was alone. So maybe I wanted Sensei to say that to me.

Why… am I so weak?”It’s okay… I’m here, right? When you come home, I’ll smile at you as usual before dinner.”

“Thank you…”

“Hey, before dinner… want to do it with me…? You can do it anytime, but you seem a bit down, Ik-kun.”

“I don’t know. I don’t understand why Reina would do such a thing.”

“Even if you ask why. Because I like you. I don’t know any other words. Won’t you do it?”

“I will…”

What will happen to me when Sensei is gone?When I saw that news, I thought about it first.

Sorry, Haruto.

“I… am rumored to be a guy who fools around with girls at school.”

“Huh? Is it because of me…?”

“Maybe.”

“Then, will you put one on my neck too? To prove that Ik-kun did it… as evidence.”
