My new Neighbor's an Idol!?

Two Choices

The first important matter at hand was for all the students to prepare to compete during the sports section of today. Ishi had joined the rest of the boys in changing to their gym clothes. Most of this consisted of having to deal with the ruckus and fooling around of teenage boys, along with listening in on them talking about how cute the girls would look.

Sure they might get a little sweaty, but perhaps that wetness could cause their white shirts to appear see through?

"That's just weird." Ishi muttered to himself when he heard someone make that point. Once he was finished changing, the boy quickly left the classroom for boys to head back outside. A fair bit of the girls were also done changing, one of them being Rinse. "Hey, where's Youna?" He asked when he met up with her. The girl running off the stage the way she did wasn't lost on him, but he was certain that Rinse would be able to handle things on her own. It turned out he was wrong for believing this.

"Come with me." She took him by the arm and directed him away from the crowd. In usual fashion, since this girl didn't have at least one person looking at her. Some people audibly spoke out in disappointment. For the boys, it seemed like Ishi was hogging her away from everyone else.

"You know, people are going to start thinking that we're dating." He stated as they hid around a corner.

"Aren't you the one who says let them think what they want?" Ishi cracked a small smile from her statement. So she really was listening to him after all. "But anyway, we got a problem. I don't know where Hanada ran off too."

"That's a problem indeed." This sports day, and the culture festival itself, was mandatory for attendance. If Youna was willing to skip out of this, then she must've been devastated about what happen during the opening ceremony.

"I know she changed her outfit." Obviously the first place she went to was that girl's desk, since the girls were also changing in 3-1. Youna's school uniform was in her bag, so it must've meant that she changed, but decided to ditch on them. "I checked the bathrooms too, but she wasn't there."

"I see..." It made more sense to Ishi now. "I think I know where she is." He directed them back inside. There was little time for them to waste, as the sports events were going to be starting soon. People were counting on them to go through the courses and win for the third years. "I swear, you guys are always making me do things." The boy complained as they moved about the school.

"That's on you." She snapped back, feeling the bit of pressure now. "You're always whining about stuff happening to you. Did you ever wonder if that's all your fault?" Indeed, perhaps if he kept his mouth shut more often, then he wouldn't have to deal with all this. Their class could've just stuck with their original idea, so he wouldn't have to be held responsible for them.

"But you're the one that said this is going to be a real special day." He countered. "And who do you have to thank for that?" The boy turned it around on her, since she was one that benefited from his actions.

"You know what I think? I think you secretly like doing all this." She tried to expose him. "How else would you explain being in the middle of everything."

"Oh yeah, sure." He sarcastically responded. "I just love spending hours in front of school begging for money. Or maybe I was asking to get falsely accused when it went missing. And don't forget that I'm running around the school looking for one girl."

"Speaking of. I remember a certain someone telling me their life didn't revolve around me." Rinse wasn't one to hold a grudge, but she wasn't going to forget something repeated at her. "If you're chasing around for Hanada, does that mean your life revolves around her?"
