Classroom Of The Elite - Relations

The Thing

Ichika Amasawa POV - Class 1 A

 // This event takes place before Ichika gives Kiyo the thing //

I really think this would be funny but in reality...I just want to see their reaction. This gift..... Hehe Senpai, You're gonna love it or maybe...

You'd realize how considerate I am looking out for you despite being a Kouhai.

I know this may seem ridiculous...but with this, he will always keep me in mind and take me into account whenever he is planning something.

Whether it be a secret date with Karuizawa-Senpai or planning for a special examination. That's good enough for now.

Now.....Let's see which one to buy.....

"Ummm"

"You're Amasawa from Class 1-A right?"

As I was deciding which to buy, Someone behind me called out, I turned around to look who he was.

He was someone from Class 2-A, who came to recruit some of us who had Academic A- or above during our first special exam. I remember them specifically trying to make me join since I had the highest academic ability in my class. I refused their proposal despite being presented with a huge amount of points.

I mean, I had Ayanokouji-Senpai personally cook for me, Compared to that...points don't stand a chance. Of course, that wasn't the sole reason but it was still a big factor.

I don't remember his name...

"You're correct, umm...?"

"Hashimoto, I am from Class 2-A"

"Yeah, I'm Amasawa from Class 1-A, what might Senpai want from me."

"Ah, it's nothing.....it's just that... everyone else from your class agreed to cooperate with us, but here you are."

He's talking about the special exam huh?

"Isn't that a choice I should make? Whether I want to partner up with this person or not."

"No, I am not denying that, But you got a suspicious look from our Queen when you rejected our contract and instead, pair up with someone from Class 2-D"

"Queen huh...Are you talking about Sakayanagi-Senpai?"

"Aren't you awfully well informed?"

He said with a smirk. People like him are so predictable...

"Well, let's see... Sakayanagi-Senpai has the highest academic ability in the entirety of the second year. So it should be common knowledge, especially with that first special exam where you had to pair up with an upperclassman."

"Mm...Wouldn't that make you want to join her instead of refusing? I'm sure Sakayanagi would've willingly paired up with you."

"That is true, but I already had my eyes set on someone else."

"I would've agreed to that reasoning if you paired up with someone with an actual brain, like Horikita or Koenji, but instead you went with the worst one."

He is more persistent than I thought, I guess he won't leave me. My answer doesn't necessarily have to be true, It just has to weigh enough to convince him.

"Isn't it more fun that way?"

"Fun you say..."

Since Karuizawa-Senpai is nowhere to be seen, I guess I could kill off some time here.
