*Nika’s POV*
“It’s because… b - because, I want you…” I saw the figure of Ryosuke getting closer to my direction. Every beat of my heart became a sudden signal for him to make a move near my figure - every beat, at least one centimetre of his face moving towards my face. This is enough to make the rhythm of my heart faster that means his face becoming closer on a rapid pace.
“Wh- what do you think you’re doing Yama-chan?” I said with a broken voice, trying to figure out what he’s actually thinking. I took a step backward every time he tries to move towards me, but I suddenly felt a tight grip from the man approaching me.
Within seconds, I felt my back against the wall which is enough to make me alarmed and in panic mode. Seeing me this vulnerable, I saw Ryosuke’s face coming closer towards mine, as if trying to get my own first kiss.
“Nika-chan… I want you…” Yama-chan said silently with a deeper voice in every word. My heart then suddenly rebelled against my chest; trying to burst out because of embarrassment. This is the first time I saw Yamada’s face this close. His clear complexion is just perfect for me. His skin pattern just appeared beautifully, blending within the colours of the lovely sakura trees outside the window.
He was about to reach out his heart shaped lips to mine when I felt a sudden urge to close my eyes and just feel an expected soft touch on my own lips.
I can feel his own breath near my face so I just waited for his next approach.
However...
His own chuckle just ruined the atmosphere. I heard him giggling his heart out like there’s no tomorrow. My red tinted cheeks just showed themselves which made me more embarrassed. This left me speechless and just couldn’t help myself but to be disappointed. Indeed, I’m in love with this man. I’m in love with my best friend - Yamada Ryosuke.
“Your reaction Nika-chan… It was priceless. I should’ve taken a picture!” he said, still hiding a bit of laughter inside him. However, I fired my deathly glares at him which is enough to regain his senses and repent on his previous actions… “Was my joke too much?” he continued, sensing that I was indeed upset.
“Why did you do that for? You’re so cruel Yama-chan…” I protested and hit his arm lightly.
“I just wanted to tease you… see your reaction, at least” he replied then sat to the nearest bench. He then pulled me beside him to start a serous conversation… “Yuto and the others are pressuring me to get a girlfriend. I - I think I’m not ready yet…”
His expression suddenly changed whilst looking down. He’s an idol after all. He got all the girls all around the world flailing over him with just a simple smile. Yet, he decided not to get a girlfriend.
After a few seconds, I heard the phrase “not ready yet” echoing continuously inside my head… “Don’t worry, I’ll wait for you…” I thought to myself with a smile, without letting him know what’s in my mind.
“Why are you laughing?” he asked then pinched part of my cheek…
“Because your problem is so stupid!” I teased him then let my way through his perfectly rosy tinted cheeks as my revenge. However, he suddenly pulled a serious face before me - enough to make me release my weak pinch.
“How about you? Why are you still single?” he said.
I pulled off a confused expression before him, but after a while, I looked down with the thought of how stupidly dense he is in regards to my own feelings: “I’m waiting for you, you idiot!!” I said to myself.
I was about to answer his serious question when his phone rang against his jeans pocket and just took the chance to answer it.
“Moshi moshi? Yuto-kun?” I heard him say over his mobile with a fake smile on his face… “Un~ I’m with Nika-chan right now. But, I’m coming over…” he continued then hang up the phone before letting off a soft sigh.
“They need me… Apparently, they arranged a blind date for me. Those guys are just hopeless” he said continually, after taking a deep breath. He then looked at me straight in the eye as if waiting for something on my part. However, I just smiled at him with the thought of strangling the girl who’s doing the said ‘blind date’ with him.
“I’ll see you tomorrow ne?” He suddenly said then slightly squeezed my hand. I then saw his figure going outside the door, moving away from me.

*2 days after*
It’s been already two days and I haven’t seen a slight sight of Yama-chan and even his friends. He didn’t even call me or anything. To be honest, I was hoping that he would at least call me. I was kinda expecting him to tell me what happened to the ‘blind date’ he just had. With this idea in mind, I just can’t help but to blame myself. What if his date went well? What if they’re now going out? What if he already got a girlfriend?... those questions just kept lingering inside my head.
However, a sudden happening just pulled both ends of my lips further apart from their original position in my face. The sight of Yamada Ryosuke just appeared before me along with Yuto, Ryutaro, Chinen and Keito tagging along behind him. His usual smile just appeared before me… yet, somehow, weaker than normal.
His gaze then met mine. I pulled a smile but he replied nothing. He looked down after seeing me. What’s wrong?
“Anou Yama-chan… How’s your new girlfriend?” I heard Chinen said which is enough to pierce a portion of my chest. I just felt my heart slowly crawling down into my chest cavity - enough to make my tears flow.
Within seconds, I forced myself up my desk and ran outside the room away from Yama-chan. I don’t want him to see me in this state. The sight of him is just too much for me. I need to move on.

*Yamada’s POV*
It’s been 2 days since my blind date. It went fine. Actually, it went better than expected. However, Nika-chan's complexion is the only thing that lingered to my mind every time I see another girl so close to me. It’s true. I’m in love with Nika-chan for a long time now. Even before we became friends. I hate the fact that she treat me as her best friend. I hate how she can be so dense. I’m actually the one who told Yuto to arrange the blind date for me. Why did I do that? Because I want to know what her reaction will be. You can call me immature and cunning… but I want her to be jealous. Yet, she did nothing which left me in my disappointment.
Walking with my friends, I suddenly saw her figure in my peripheral view. I looked at her and met her beautiful subtle eyes that can easily make me melt. However, I forced myself to stop and move on.
“Anou Yama-chan… how’s your new girlfriend?” I heard Chinen suddenly say which made me look up to him in a glare - his statement just ruined my chain of thoughts. I then looked at Nika-chan’s direction and found her suddenly running outside our classroom.
“What are you talking about? You know I rejected her, right?” I replied almost in a shout then ran as fast as I can and followed the footsteps of the girl who just left the room.
I know she’s upset. I know her too well. She’s my best friend after all. I can see one of her hand touching the corner of her eyes.
I tried my best to catch up on his pace and when I did, I pulled her arm and pinned her on the wall of the empty corridor.
“Nika-chan… wait!”
“What are you doing?” she replied, trying to struggle.
“I know you’re crying… Just talk to me…. Even just a bit” I replied while preventing her to move any further.
“I’m okay. You don’t have to worry about me. Just go. Your girlfriend is waiting.” I heard her say while looking away from me.
“Can’t I have you instead?” I replied, without even thinking. I just can’t take it anymore. Those words were just kept inside me, just waiting to come out to the perfect girl I wanted to say them to. I just hope it gets through her.
“Is this one of your pranks, as well… It’s not funny anymore”
Without further ado, I placed my lips on hers and just treasured every moment caressing her. I pulled her closely to my direction by placing my hand on her neck and heaved her face towards me. I just can’t let her go. I want her to realise this is real; and I did that because of a reason. I did that because I want her.

“Do you still think it’s a joke?” I asked after we broke our kiss. She seem so speechless from my sudden actions. However, I can’t help but to smile with the thought of my success of confession.
“Yes” she replied teasingly while watching me wipe her tears. The tears I will never let to fall in the future if ever she accepts me.
“You do? How many times do I have to kiss you until you realise I LOVE YOU?!”
