I Have Feelings For String Bean??!!

Part 2: Chapter 17 

"(nickname)-chan! Emergency! I need to talk to you, like now! I'm gonna borrow her, Tsukishima-san!"

Three pairs of eyes blinked as you, Tsukishima and Yamaguchi stared at their class president in bewilderment. Michiko was panting for air after running all the way to class and shouting in your faces.

It was currently during lunch time and the three of you were eating your meal peacefully when Michiko came bursting into the classroom, disrupting your meal times. You swallowed your food as you stood up, feeling concern for your best friend.

"Mi-chan, are you okay? What do you need to talk to me about?"

Ignoring your question, the first-year grabbed your hands and ran out of the class, dragging you along. "No time to waste! See you later, Yamaguchi-san and Tsukishima-san!"

Yamaguchi and Tsukishima stared at both their classmates' retreating forms until they were out of sight. Tsukishima returned back to eating his lunch as Yamaguchi blinked his eyes in confusion, asking, "What was that all about?"

Tsukishima took a bite out of his strawberry cake as he answered monotonously, "I don't know and I don't want to know. Just focus on finishing your lunch, lunch break is going to end soon."

"Okay, Tsukki!"

"Don't call me that."

"Sorry, Tsukki."

You were still being dragged along as Michiko continued running down the hallway, going to who knows where. You were still feeling confused and concern towards your best friend's unusual behaviour, wondering if she had lost her mind.

"Mi-chan, please slow down. You're gonna rip off my arm if you continue to pull me along like that." You said as your arm began to throb in pain.

Michiko immediately released your arm with a sheepish look as you rubbed your arm, glaring at her.

"Sorry." Michiko apologised.

You sighed as you rubbed your head, feeling a headache coming. "Nevermind that. So, what's the 'emergency' you wanna talk about with me?"

You air-quoted the word "emergency" and waited for Michiko's reply. Class 1-4 president's eyes lit up as she grabbed you by the shoulders and begun to shake you like crazy while shouting in excitement, "Are you and Tsukishima-san dating?! Why didn't you tell me?! I thought we are best friends!"

You felt your head spinning as Michiko continued to give you a mini-earthquake. Before you could lose your lunch, you begged your best friend to stop shaking you. "Mi-chan! I'm gonna lose my lunch if you continue to shake me that hard."

Michiko released you immediately as you tried to regain your sense of balance. When you felt that you weren't going to black out, you fixed a glare at your best friend who gave you an innocent look. "Seriously, Mi-chan? What's wrong with you? I swear one of these days..."

You trailed off as Michiko's words from earlier on sank in. The black-haired female grinned in amusement as she watched your face changed from shock to disbelief to embarrassment. You could feel your face heating up at the mention of you and Tsukishima in a relationship. You could imagine how horrible it would be if you were to date that sadistic string bean.

Michiko began to giggle at the look of horror on your face. "It can't be that bad, dating Tsukishima-san. I mean, have you seen yourself whenever you're around him? The moment he enters the room, your face lit up like the sun."

You turned to Michiko with an appalled look as you took her by the shoulders and stared directly into her eyes. "Are you out of your mind?! Why will you think that string bean and I are dating? Which we're not, by the way! We're just friends!"
