Tamako University

I'll see you tomorrow. Over.

A/N: Being a writer for fun is really liberating. You can make up any scenario you want while not even worrying about if what you're writing is going to sell. That's what lets me write about a movie and series that was released over 7 years ago just because I thought that it was really adorable. Anyways, if you haven't watched Tamako market or Tamako Love story, I highly suggest that you watch those first. KyoAni did a solid job on them, and while they aren't perfect, if slice of life moe style anime appeals to you, then you should give it a try. I also found the romance in the movie really entertaining and cute, so here we are. Anyways, this is just a one shot for now, but I've got more in the works after I finish my other two fanfics!

Chapter 1: I'll see you tomorrow. Over.

"I love you, over!"

Mochizou stood there in silence. They simply waited a few moments for Tamako's works to sink in.

"I- mmph!"

Mochizou rubbed his head after being brutally tackled to the ground by Tamako, both of them blushing as if they were wearing parkas in death valley.

"I told you how I felt so..."

"Say it again."

"Hm?"

Tamako's eyes were full of determination, although they never got off the ground and both of them were still essentially still rendered talking tomatoes.

"Y-you told me to forget last time, right? S-so, tell me now. I c-can't remember if you did."

"I love you, Tamako. Should we... uh... get up now?"

"Huh? Oh! Right... Sorry..."

"Don't be. That felt... nice."

"Ah!"

Both of them averted their eyes, losing any shreds of confidence that they'd gained.

"Well... I'll see you in a bit."

"Huh?"

Mochizou cracked a smirk, regaining the ability to think rationally.

"I've still got some exams to pass, right? Today's the entrance exam, so I'll need to keep my composure."

"But... Midori said..."

Tamako and Mochizou both looked completely dumbfounded.

"She said you were leaving early."

Mochizou turned away, barely missing the moment where Tamako returned to providing eye contact.

"Well... I was, but after today, I think I'll stay here for the rest of the year. I'll go there at the start of the school year."

"Y-you're still leaving?"

Tamako's expression of sadness quickly snapped to one of guilt.

"A-ah. Right. You should... do what you need to, Mochizou."

Mochizou's mouth hung agape for a second before he turned to face Tamako again, morphing his face into a guilty smile.

"Yeah. I will. Look on the bright side, though, we've still got some time to figure things out. Heck, I might even just choose a different path than Tokyo."

Tamako shifted uncomfortably for a moment before taking a deep breath and returning Mochizou's eye contact in full.

"Don't... give up on your dreams for me. Maybe I can come too! I'll make a Mochizou shop! I'm really good at making it, and I know a lot of people! I could use word of mouth!"

"Really? That... that's great! We're going to Tokyo together!

Mochizou suffered his second almost-a-concussion of the day after Tamako tackled him straight into the ground. This embrace lasted for much less time because both of them came back to their senses much sooner and sprung apart, equally as incoherent as they were at first. After a few minutes, Tamako recomposed herself once again and spoke with her eyes squarely focused on Mochizou.
