Classroom Of The Elite: Soulmate Edition

Chapter IV: The cure of lovesickness

Nanase Tsubasa's POV

I was at a loss for words. This wasn't a dream, the real Kiyotaka-san was sitting next to me.

「Kiyotaka-san what are you doing here?」

I couldn't help but ask. Although I was thankful that he came to visit me I was surprised by his presence. Was he worried about me?

「I've heard from your mom that you were hospitalized. Thus I come to visit, besides this day I had planned to spend it with you from the beginning.」

I think my heart skipped a bit. I was happy that he had come to see how I was despite meeting me only once. He must care about me, right?

「I almost forgot, take this, it's a gift I hope you liked it.」

He stood up from his seat to pick the boutique of flowers that was on the table. He handed it to me. It was really beautiful.

「Thank you. I love it.」

I was happy from the bottom of my heart. It was the first time someone had given me flowers. At this rate I think I'll cry of happiness.

「I'm glad that you liked Tsubasa.」

He did it again, he made my heart skip. Although his face didn't change nor did his tone of voice I felt that he really meant those words. Wait a minute he called me Tsubasa!

「W-Why are you calling me that way Kiyotaka-san?」

He titled his head like he didn't understand what I meant. I couldn't help but giggle, his reaction was really cute.

「You called me Kiyotaka-san so I thought it was fair to call you Tsubasa. Was I wrong?」

「No no, it's fine. I like it that way.」

I averted my face. I didn't want him to see me blush.

「How do you feel, Tsubasa?」

Now that he mentioned it, I still feel that pain. How strange, when I woke up the pain in my chest wasn't there.

「I still feel a bit of pain in my chest.」

Suddenly I saw how his right hand made its way to my left hand. He held it softly, caressing and slowly our fingers were intertwined. If I was blushing before, now I'm sure that I'm red as a tomato.

「How about now? Does it feel any better?」

I tried to find the pain but it was almost imperceptible. Was mom right the whole time? Was I only lovesick?

「Yes, how did you do it?」

I couldn't help but ask, the medication didn't seem to be working but whatever he did was.

「I just wanted to hold your hand. I thought it would help.」

I couldn't deny it anymore. I was completely healthy but at the same time I was completely lovesick. My body was yearning for his touch. His sole presence eases my heart.

「Hello Tsubasa, are you feeling better? I brought some g-」

Before I knew the pain was back, I looked to my left hand which was alone. Kiyotaka-san was no longer holding it. He stood up facing the person who entered, I recognized that voice. It was my mom.

「Hello, you must be Tusbasa's mom. Nice to meet you. I'm Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, I was about to leave can you give us some minutes?」

I couldn't see her from the position I was in so I tried to sit. I didn't know what kind of face I was making but the moment she saw me she gave me a smug smile. Suddenly I had a bad feeling about it. Like I was a small puppy about to be hit by a car.
