Different Feelings (Yandere-chan x Male Rivals)

Week 2 Arc 1- Is He GAY!?

Week 2- Day 2
Rival???: Amao Odayaka
I exit the room when the lunch bell rang. Senpai will be meeting me even though I don't have my own lunch. I stood outside and waited for him.

A certain brunette pass by me and... waved at me. Oh. It's Amao. I hesitantly waved back. To my surprise, he walked towards me!

"Why are you standing here alone?" He asked me.

"I'm waiting for someone." I said.

"Oh. Your boyfriend?"

What? I blushed. "H-he's not my-"

"Oh there you are, Ayano!" Senpai was suddenly in front of us. Well, if this would be embarrassing...

"Hi." He smiled innocently at Senpai.

"Hello, Um, Cooking Club leader." Senpai greeted in return.

"Amao Odayaka. Nice meeting you." He reached a hand to Senpai, while I squinted. Is Amao gay?

"Taro Yamada." Senpai shook his hand.

"Ayano is your girlfriend, then?" Senpai was taken aback and I flushed once again.

"Wait, how do you know my name?" I asked.

"Well, Taro did called you out, right?"

"Oh. Right." I scratched my head.

"She's Ayano Aishi anyway, if you're interested. On her, I mean." Senpai introduced me ignoring the 'girlfriend' thingy.

Now Senpai is pairing me up with other guys. Great.

Amao laughed shyly though, flustered about it.

"So you guys will go to lunch at the cafeteria or the rooftop?"

"We usually eat at the rooftop, but I don't think Ayano would have some lunch because... you know, I think she's used from being given by someone else, right Ayano?" Taro smirked at me. Oh no this is trouble!

"I-i have lunch today! M-maybe buying from vending machines will help at least!" I stuttered out.

"Vending machines? Oh no, that wouldn't do at all!" Amao pondered outloud.

Then he looked at me intensely as if trying to read something on my face with his hand placed on his chin. Suddenly, he had a bright idea.

"How about I invite you guys in the club room and cook for you guys? Just this time promise you can eat your lunch at the rooftop tomorrow."

"Thank you Amao, that's a nice offer. But I already have a bento so I think it's only Ayano who needs your cooking." Senpai explained.

"Oh, I was thinking to give you a dessert instead, actually. So you could still go." He smiled sweetly at him. Okay really I'm serious, is he GAY!?

"Uhm, okay." Senpai just nodded and ushered me to follow Amao.

"This way," Amao lead us to the cooking club. He gestured us to seat on the chairs while he proceed to get ingredients. I watched him as he did so, and he is indeed skillful.

He starts cooking sashimi if I guessed correctly, while also fetching flour and milk to make a batter. Then he takes out the shrimp from the fridge and started removing the scales, then dipping it to the batter before placing it to the already opened frying pan.

Oh, he is making tempura!

The rice was being made when he just heated it and applying peas, carrots and corns to make it tasty. A ready meal indeed.

After 20 minutes, he is done cooking it all. He places it in the plate as if he is making art with the food but the tempting smell and the sight of it is indeed an art. He put the plate in front of me then opened the fridge to put 2 cupcakes in the middle of the table. I gave my thanks as he did so, and so does Senpai.

"I'm sorry you waited for too long. And sorry if the dessert is a bit frosty..." He scratched the back of his head even though the dessert isn't badly frosted at all. It still looks fine. And the cuisine looks fine, too.

"We really thank you, Amao. It still looks tasty even if it's cold. It will cool down soon, anyway. Will you eat with us?" Senpai asked Amao.

"Oh right! I forgot." Amao brought his bento then sat at the chair across us. "Itadakimasu! Enjoy the meal!" He clasped his hands together before holding up his chopsticks.

"Itadakimasu!" Senpai and I responded in unison.

As I tasted the meal, it filled my eyes with stars because THIS IS SO DELICIOUS! It's the best! "mhm! this is actually good, Amao. Thank you."

"Thanks, and welcome!" He wears that ever flashing smile that makes my heart beat fast because he looks cute in all honesty.

We ate peacefully and happily. I mean, who wouldn't enjoy a free, delicious meal that is way better than other meals I ate before? While Osano's cooking is better than my mom's (please don't tell her), this may be the best meal ever!

After we finished our bento, we proceed to eat the dessert. Taking a bite, it still didn't fail to make me cry in tears of joy. It tastes like heaven!

"Wow Amao, this cupcake is delicious! I would like to know your secret!" Senpai praised him.

"Just a lot of practice and experiments, actually..." He smiled shyly.

Then, I remembered he's a rival. So I have to do something...

"Can I join your club?"

A/N: Sorry for the late update! It took my brain a lot of time to storm itself with ideas and what will be the ending so I know how to progress it up! Anyway, I did edited some details on chapters with lunch scenes to verify their statement this chapter, so if you're confused you can go ahead and reread the chapters, thank you.
