"Yashiro, would you like to go out with me?"

That's how it all started. It seemed to happen so fast. Itsuki, one of Yashiro's classmates, had asked to meet her in one of the empty classrooms during lunch.

Yashiro, being the love-obsessed single girl, agreed without even a second thought.

Sure, she was nervous that maybe he had just invited her in there to insult her ankles, but there was always a chance that Yashiro's dream of having a boyfriend may come true.

Itsuki wasn't the best looking boy in class, but he was certainly Yashiro's type.

He had dark blonde hair, which was casually swept back. Blue eyes that glimmered with mystery and handsomeness. Totally prince-like. He was taller than Yashiro, too, by almost a whole foot.

Just her type.

Of course, once the romantic question left his mouth, Yashiro stared at him wide eyes, mouth opening and closing like a fish out of water (which she quite literally was, but he didn't know that). Unable to respond, she nodded slowly.

"Great! Uhm- do you want to maybe...go on a date after school?" He twiddled his thumbs.
"Y-yes, I'd love to!" She stuttered.

And now, here we are.

〜♡〜

"IHAVEABOYFRIENDOHMYGODDDD" Yashiro squealed to her best friend, Aoi.

Yashiro was ecstatic. What 14 year old girl wouldn't be? This is what Yashiro had dreamed of for her whole life. Being swept off her feet by her prince.

"I'm so happy for you Nene-chan! Itsuki is lucky to get such a lovely girl like you!"
"Awww Aoi!" Yashiro cooed.

Aoi, of course, could get any boy she wanted. She was stunning, every boy loved her.

Yashiro continued to fangirl over her new boyfriend with Aoi. Something kept nagging her at the back of her mind. A certain someone. A certain ghost.

Yashiro couldn't quite put her finger on it, but thinking about the ghost made her feel some kind of guilt. She picked at her hands, lost in thought, her friend's excited words fading out of Yashiro's brain like sherbet.

She didn't know what she was looking for, so she brushed the feeling off, the feeling of guilt only subsiding slightly from her mind. She came back to reality, and continued fangirling with Aoi.

〜♡〜

Hanako stared at Yashiro with a stern look on his face.
"You have a what now?"
"A boyfriend!" Yashiro beamed.

Hanako leaned back onto the wall and crossed his arms. He looked to the side, breaking eye contact with Yashiro.
"Right."

Yashiro sensed something was wrong.

Hanako wasn't usually this closed off, he was giving dry and short responses, something that he usually never did. He wasn't being clingy, either, staying put leaning against the wall furthest from Yashiro.
