Midori's P.O.V

I'm currently hiding behind a bush, watching Aishi-kun sitting on the fountain that was on the side of the school. He was surrounded by four guys.

Even though I loved watching their little show, lately it's been a little boring. There's been no drama and they've all been civil with each other. Some of them didn't even know about each other. 'Hehe, look at you, Aishi-kun... I'm starting to think you're a little scumbag. Hiding them from each other!' I just wish there was a little more drama going on. I want to see some jealousy! While I thought about how I could cause a little drama, I didn't notice someone coming up behind me.

"Why have you been watching me?"

"Ahhhhhhh!" I screamed as my body shot up. "Don't fucking scare me like that!" When the voice spoke, I recognized it. I held my heart. "Ha... ha... ha..." When I finally turned around, I awkwardly laughed and saw him. "... Aishi Ayoshi..."

Aishi-kun stared at me with his pitch-black eyes. It felt like he pierced into my soul. It was actually a little scary, but as soon as I saw my Aishi's face, that fear faded away. 'Oh my god! He's so cute! I want to squeeze his adorable little cheeks!' I could feel my hand reaching out toward Aishi-kun's face, but my wrist was suddenly grabbed.

The grip was tight and Aishi-kun pulled me close to him. "Why have you been watching me?"

"I... I..."

"You've been following me for a while, always watching me. Answer me, why?"

Aishi-kun's voice was cold, but also enchanting. I couldn't help but to fall into a daze, wanting to answer his every question, but... 'Midori, you can't tell him the truth! My precious show might end!' I quickly came up with an answer, "I like you! I want to get closer to you."

When my words came out of my mouth, Aishi-Kun's eyes slightly expanded, seeming to be shocked by what I said. He let go of my wrist and took a step back from me. He looked into my eyes, "I apologize, but I can not reciprocate your feelings. I am already interested in someone."

My jaw dropped. I only registered the first half of his sentence and not the second half of his sentence. "Oh my god! Oh my god! I'm so sorry, that isn't what I meant! I mean, I like you as a friend and I want to get closer to you as a friend."

Aishi-kun nodded his head in understanding. "I see. I apologize for my misunderstanding."

I could feel my face growing red and I rubbed the back of my neck. "Haha... no it's my fault. My words sounded very misleading." When I finished apologizing, I realized what else he had said. "Wait?! You're interested in someone?"

'When did this happen?! I had been paying so close attention to the interaction between Aishi-kun and the others! How could I have missed this!? Who could it be!? Ohhh, maybe it's that new cutie!' I eagerly looked up at Aishi-kun, "May I know who?"

Aishi-kun looked at me, his eyes were... strange. I don't know how to describe them. "I am not quite sure yet. In my family, we each have our special someone. When we first lay our eyes on them, we will know. Once we find them, they become our whole world, but at this point, I have not found them yet."

"That sounds so wonderful, so romantic..." I sighed.

"Mm."

'He's so sweet.'

"So you wish to be friends?"

I grew very excited, "Oh my goodness! Yes, yes, yes! So we can be friends?"

"Of course."

I started jumping up and down. 'I can't believe I'm going to be friends with Aishi-kun!' I threw myself onto Aishi-kun, wrapping my arms around him, and gave him a hug. "Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!"

Third Person P.O.V.

A few minutes earlier...

Ayoshi, Amao, Taro, Budo, and Osano were sitting on the fountain on the side of the school. They were simply chatting when Ayoshi got up and told them he would be right back. They all told him ok and just talked with each other.

A few seconds later, they heard a scream. They all turned their heads toward the scream and saw a girl standing in front of Ayoshi. She was really close to him, so they all moved closer to them and perked up their ears to hear what they were talking about. They had never seen her around Ayoshi before, so they needed to pay close attention to her. And they all thought for good reason when they heard those terrible words: "I like you! I want to get closer to you."

They were all so concentrated on thinking about what they had just heard. They became so lost in thought they didn't hear the rest of the conversation between the two.

'Why must Ayoshi be so cute, attracting so many people?' Amao thought.

'Not another one! I already have enough competition,' Taro thought.

'I don't want to fight with another person for Ayoshi's attention,' Budo thought.

'He's mine, get away from him!' Osano thought.

They all looked at each other and they silently agreed. Even though they were rivals, they agreed that they couldn't allow a girl to steal Ayoshi from them. After they agreed, they got up, ready to go to Ayoshi to separate the two. They were originally walking, but when they saw the girl hug Ayoshi, they all started speed walking. They needed to get that girl away from their Ayoshi!

Midori had just let go of Ayoshi when the boys had reached the two.

They all felt relief when she finally let go of Ayoshi. They pushed her out of the way, surrounding Ayoshi and questioning him about what had just happened. It became a full-blown interrogation, and they wouldn't stop until they got their answers.

Midori grew a shit-eating grin. 'I didn't even have to do anything and I stirred up drama!'
