I LOVE YOU, NOT HIM

、ELEVEN '

Amane went to school pouting when his other two rivals talked about how they spent time with Yashiro in their so-called rival group chat last night. He realized that he never got the chance t spend time alone with Yashiro and here he was dying with jealousy

"I wish I could feel what it's like to be God's favourite" Amane cried and slumped down on his desk

(Say no more Amane-kun~)

____________

Amane was exhausted because today was PE and their teacher was a devil. Their sensei made them run in this blazing weather. He went to the nearest vending machine and chose coke. He gulped it down in one go and proceeded to run back to where their classmates gathered but stopped when he saw someone familiar sitting or rather sleeping on a bench. He jogged towards the person and realized that it was Yashiro. He poked her cheek to wake her up but she won't budge. So, he took advantage of the situation and choke Yashiro (lol just kidding)

So, he took advantage of the situation and glance from side to side to see if there were people present fortunately there wasn't. He quickly sat beside her and scooted closer. His posture was as stiff as a soldier in a parade with both of his hands on his lap. He used his right hand to guide her head on his shoulder and retracted his hand back on his lap. He tucked a single strand of her silky-cream hair behind her ear and studied her face. Her long thick lashes resting on top right above her dusty-pink coloured cheeks. Soft snores escaped through her pouty lips and cute button nose twitching. He smiled softly and laid his head on top of hers waiting to be pulled into the land of dreams

Amane - 2
Kou - 1
Lemon - 1

And of course, Aoi happened to pass by. She quickly snapped pictures here and there and sent them to his boyfriend and Amane's two other rivals. She laughed evilly and left them in peace

Amane woke up and it was now lunchtime. He glanced back to Yashiro and decided to wake her up

"Yashiro, it's already lunchtime. Let's meet with everyone to eat lunch"

She stirred a bit and woke up. She wasn't fully awake yet and glanced up to him while rubbing her eyes. An arrow struck his heart and he covered his face as he tilted his head back. He couldn't handle her cuteness but he forced himself to straighten up

"Amane-kun?"

"It's lunchtime. Let's go meet the others" he smiled as he ruffled her hair

"Carry me?" she smiled adorably while making grabby hands. He gasped loudly when cupid changed his weapon to a riffle and struck his heart again. Amane and Yashiro were childhood friends and he knew whenever Yashiro would wake up from her nap she would be extra clingy.

"Amane, carryyy" she whined and he blushed furiously. So, he carried her bridal style while she continued sleeping. Gasps and squeals were heard when the duo appeared in their school's canteen.

Amane - 3
Kou - 1
Lemon - 1

"What is the meaning of this?" Lemon asked furiously

"It means I'm close to making Yashiro mine" he grinned playfully

"Yashiro, wake up. We're here" she woke up and sat down with her friends

"Did that pervert do anything to you, senpai?" Koua asked worriedly

"I could never do that. Have some faith with me, kid" he gasped offended

"Amane-kun just helped me arrive here. He knows how clingy I become when I wake up from my nap" she informed and casually ate her food which her violet-haired friend ordered in advance

"You sneaky bastard" Akane grinned while throwing a knowing look

"I'm the main character here so it's obvious who's gonna win in the end. You're just a bunch of extras" he poked his tongue out and ate his food

"Are you sure, Amane? Sometimes, an extra could take away the protagonist's spotlight" Kou debated back

"That's right. Good luck mc~" Lemon teased

____________________________

Amane remembered that Yashiro made a promise that she'll go with him to the new cafe near their school. So, they went there and ordered two parfaits.

"I'm sorry I almost forgot about the promise, Amane-kun" she apologized sincerely

"Don't worry. I'm not mad" he reassured

Finish a large portion of pastry in 5 minutes and you'll get a limited Moriarty: The Patriot merch

Yashiro saw the promo and ushered the other to join. He agreed because he wanted to make her happy

Luckily, they won and she squealed in glee when she received the merch. She hugged him tightly and thanked him. This boosted Amane's ego and smiled from ear to ear. He felt like a proud boyfriend who successfully pleased her girlfriend. They walked their way back home with a happy Yashiro.

Amane - 4
Kou - 1
Lemon - 1

"Yashiro, you're really dense" he said in mistake

"What?"

"U-uh nothing" he panicked and tried changing the topic but failed

"Tomorrow. I.. We will explain it to you. Me, Kou and Lemon. Let's meet at the rooftop after school. For now, just relax okay?" he forced a smile and she nodded. She went inside her house and after she was no longer in sight. He dash his way back home and quickly texted his rivals

Amane - normal/ Lemon - bold/ Kou - italic

Are you an idiot!?

What the hell were you thinking!? My heart isn't ready for that kind of stuff yet!

My bad ::p

Let's all calm down. I'm positive, she'll reject the two of you tomorrow because 1 she never had any romantic feelings towards you two. 2, she ships you guys. I'm all that's left

Don't get overconfident, Yamabuki-senpai. She doesn't have any feelings for us yet. Senpai clearly see all of us as friends

True! And that's where we continue to make Yashiro fall in love with one of us first. Of course, I'm not treating this like a game or a challenge and I'm not making it look like Yashiro is some kind of trophy. I'm treating this seriously because I'm not gonna give up my childhood friend and crush to any of you

That's some long-ass essay you got there lol. Who said we weren't taking this seriously? I'll make Yashiro the happiest girl to ever exist

Don't forget about me. I'm the perfect guy for senpai here after all. I can cook, clean, decent grades, and most importantly not a pervert. I will treat senpai better than any of you. She deserves to be loved, cared and spoiled.

Meanwhile, the radish was completely clueless on what's about to happen
