My Online Friends Turned Out To Be the Ultra-Beautiful Girls in My Class and They Were Yandere - 80

Chapter 80: My Hero

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

【Side: Haruna Misono 】

Once again, you saved me. Ever since that day, you’ve been helping me, and each time, you make me fall for you more and more. You said it, didn’t you? Just like back then—you called me “my hero.”

I was so happy I felt like I was going to cry. Those tears weren’t because I was scared. They were because I was happy.

“Wow, it’s beautiful! A field of flowers!”

The flower field was the main attraction of the sightseeing course. I had done a little research on it ever since the day Hakkun invited me. That was why I knew about it. I knew about this field, and I knew about the rumor too. They said a massive swarm of beautiful butterflies could be seen in this place, albeit very rarely. And any couple that saw them was promised eternal happiness. The rumor seemed so romantic and wonderful.

“It is lovely, isn’t it, Haru-chan?”

“Yes, it is, Misaki.”

Mii-chan gently took my hand. Her fingers were squeezed tight against mine, interlaced like tangled thread. 

I guess we’re dating now, Mii-chan and I. Fufu, it’s a first for me—having multiple people I love. It makes me feel like I’m doing something naughty…

“Hara-kun. Why don’t we make flower crowns like we used to?”

“Flower crowns, huh? Sounds good, let’s make them.”

I tapped Hakkun to get his attention and we moved slightly away from the main field. We started working in a spot where it was officially permitted to make crowns. It happened shortly after I first fell for Hakkun. Just the two of us went to a small flower patch and tried to make grass crowns. Both Hakkun and I failed back then. But now, I felt like I could actually do it.

As we worked, everyone else gathered around, and it turned into a group effort to make flower crowns. A smile threatened to spill over naturally. It was because this moment felt unbearably cozy and happy. It was something I couldn’t have imagined for myself just a little while ago.

Hakkun is one thing, but everyone else is so incredibly kind too. They still haven’t rejected someone like me. Ahaha, I’m the worst, aren’t I? My heart is thumping for everyone. …Though Hakkun is still number one.

“Finished! Haa-kun! Look. Did I do a good job?”

“Mii is finished too. Haa-chan, Haru-chan, don’t you think I did a very good job?”

“They’re all perfect. I just finished mine too. Hakkun, how is it?”

“Done. Fufu, Haa-sama? Here, this is the crown of my love, made just for you.”

I thought the flower crowns turned out very well. I felt like I had made something that could be called the most beautiful one yet. And just as I was finishing, it seemed everyone else was done too.

Ah, Nonoa-chan is being unfair. Putting it on Hakkun’s head… fufu, he looks like a princess with how embarrassed he is. He’s so cute.

“Again… it didn’t turn out right again! Dammit! Even though I made it while watching Haruna’s!”

“Pfft, ahahaha!”

In Hakkun’s hand was a flower crown that hadn’t changed a bit from that first time. His flower crown was a little small and looked somewhat strange.

“Hakkun, yours hasn’t changed at all since before! You’re just too cute, honestly, honestly!”

Acting or whatever didn’t matter to me anymore. The boy in front of me was so cute and so dear to me more than anything else that I couldn’t stand it. I felt like I wanted to love him just as I was. Ah, I realized once again that this person would eternally be my number one. That fact was engraved in my heart more strongly and deeply than anything else.

“H-Hey, you don’t have to laugh that much! I worked hard on this, you know!?”

“Yes, I know. But cute is cute. Here, let’s make one together.”

“Eh? Are you sure”

“I’ll teach you.”

From there, I took Hakkun’s hand and taught him step by step. Finally, it was finished. It was a flower crown just like everyone else’s, though still a little small.

“I-I did it! Thanks, Haruna!”

“You’re very welcome.”

You really are such a child.

Just as I was thinking that, Muna-chan’s scream echoed from the flower field.

“Hey! Haa-kun!! Haru-chan!! It’s a swarm of butterflies!!!! Nonoa-chan found them!!”

“Eh, really!? Let’s go, Hakkun!”

“Whoa, wait, don’t pull me, it’s dangerous!”

When we ran toward the field, there were indeed clouds of Cabbage White and Clouded Yellow butterflies flying in a swarm. It was breathtakingly beautiful. If the rumors were true, then with this, I would have eternal happiness with Hakkun and Mii-chan… right?

…If I’m going to do it, it has to be now. It’s okay to say it, right? We all talked about it, after all. Even Muna-chan said it was okay. Alright, I have to say it.

“Hakkun.”

I gripped his sleeve tightly. 

Oh no, my hands have started shaking. I—I should have done this when we were alone!

“What is it, Haruna?”

“Um, well. I love you. Please, go out with me!”

“…………”

Hakkun stayed silent for a while with a slightly bewildered look on his face. 

What should I do? What should I do? Am I going to be rejected?

“Don’t worry about Mii. Haa-chan, please tell her your honest feelings. We already know that you have feelings for everyone, Haa-chan. …Though Mii won’t be confessing just yet.”

“Then, I’ll say it. …Gladly. To be honest, I’m still a bit confused. Haruna is dating Misaki, and now I’m going to be two-timing? It doesn’t feel real yet. But I like Haruna, and I don’t want to lie about these feelings. So, well… yeah. I’m a terrible guy, but I’ll make you happy. I promise. I’ll never, ever treat you poorly.”

Saying that, Hakkun squeezed my hand firmly. 

Ah, what should I do? I feel like I’m going to cry. And here I thought I had graduated from being a crybaby. The tears won’t stop.

“Hakkun, I love you…!”

“I love you too, Haruna.”

I have a boyfriend and a girlfriend. It’s an incredibly complex, sinful, and impure relationship. But I’m happy, and Hakkun is happy, so that makes it okay, right?

I’ll put an end to the “Ice Queen” act now. Because right now, I have clearly become his.
