Mixed Relations: Chapter 4
A/N: Supposedly, I would start on this chapter tomorrow since the last two chapters were back-to-back. I couldn’t help but update early because of my overflowing ideas for the story.
The most awaited POV is finally here!
My sister bullies Yama-chan a whole lot that’s why he’s the last one. If you can recall what I’ve said earlier, the story was originally her plot, so all I can do is grab some ideas from my own head. Ohoho. It’s a little collaboration we do.
Yosh! Yamada is really easy to do, I guess, compared to my Tensai Chinen that is. Although Mirai was the easiest, I didn’t really have a hard time doing this chapter. I’ve seen cool Yama-chan way too many times :3

PREFACE 4
My name is Yamada Ryosuke. I’m 18. Cool, awesome and nothing else in between, I guess. Girls just don’t see it the way I do.
I go to school in Seishun Gakuen. When I heard that it was finally going to be co-ed, I was the happiest thing on earth!
I have 10 girlfriends. Just kidding. I have none. Every time I try to start a conversation with a girl, she just looks at me coldly and ignores the rest of what I say. They all don’t get the fact that I am a genius.
I have two good friends. Hikaru and Chinen. They’ve been with me ever since I moved to Seishun Gakuen. I find it easy to get along with them, compared to women. It’s not that they match my ego, but they are the ones who understand and accept my well-being. They are indeed, the same as me in their own little ways.
My view on girls? Not very interesting. I just find them hard to read. My friend Chinen says that they are actually one of the easiest to read since to him, they are pretty much an open book. Even if I were the one to approach them, they just don’t seem to appreciate me in whatever I do or say.
For so long, I’ve been wondering about that.
Hikaru says it’s because of my habit of talking about myself too much. I mean, what’s so wrong about that?
The whole school (and apparently including my two best friends) has a crush on one girl so it seems.
They have no idea of how much I know about her. Absolutely no idea.

“EHHHHH?!” I couldn’t help but raise my voice at Hika-chan’s statement.
So here we are from where we stopped. Or from where Chinen’s world stopped, at least. I’m just here to join his shock with him.
I knew how much Chinen tried to hide these feelings towards Kota-san. We both kept it a secret since we thought that if Hikaru knew, he would approach her and befriend her. It was a bad idea since almost all the girls liked him, and she might start to feel the same. Poor Chinen had to shut his mouth every time the three of us hung out. I could literally feel his pain. No, seriously. He grabs onto me sometimes and buries his fingers into my skin whenever he fights the urge to tell Hika-chan about his feelings towards a girl.
And so the worst case scenario happened.
Hika-chan now likes the girl Chinen likes. While I’m here, not pretty sure of how I should help them. They were both good friends of mine, and I don’t want either of them to get hurt. That would be hard since I’d be stuck in between friendship and rivalry.
Tsk. I wouldn’t give too much of a fuss if I were Chinen. It was his fault anyway; not telling Kota-san or at least Hika-chan. They were good friends too. If he had told him in the first place, maybe this wouldn’t have happened.
Or it could have been worse.
I kept my eyes wide open and turned to Chinen; who seems to look as if he was about to get a sex change. Just kidding. He looked as if he was about to punch Hika-chan.
Hika-chan just stared at his finished food, probably trying to hide his face. It was obvious that he was having a hard time too.
Chinen’s eyes were still wide open. He looked like he was about to pass out.
I inhaled and tried to calm myself down a bit before I could talk.
“A-Are you sure you like her? I mean she really isn’t very interested with boys and-“ I started to stutter, “sh-she’s umm..”
Hika-chan’s usual smile was gone. He now turns his serious look on.
Chinen was still speechless. He loosened his tie and blinks rapidly while sealing his lips shut. I could sense that he wants to say something to stop Hikaru from continuing.
I scratched my head while trying to look around and avoid eye contact with either of them.
Chinen finally narrowed his eyes and sipped on his juice.
Oh this will be a long day.
--
The bell rang and broke our awkward silence.
Chinen hasn’t said a thing since Hikaru’s confession. I on the other hand, tried to change the subject as much as possible. Damn, I even tried to use the weather just to get us off the topic.
Hika-chan grabbed his bag, gave off a weak smile, waved, and left.
How could he have not noticed? Or at least ask Chinen about his sudden reaction?
I quickly looked at Chinen and gave him a worried look. He simply looked back at me with scary eyes.
“Are you okay?” I asked stupidly.
Of course his not okay! Why am I even asking?!
“I don’t think I should mind,” He finally spoke, “she’s not mine or anything. Besides, competing against a superior like him? I mean, intelligence is all I could offer. The rest, Hika-chan has it all.”
I flinched. This is so troublesome.
Love is so troublesome.

I walked home with Hika-chan today. Just Hika-chan.
Chinen said he had “something to do” at school. I can sense the obvious excuse there.
Our walk home was normal. We had the usual talks about what happened in class and about our plans after high school. Hika-chan and I get along well this way since we’ve been friends since we were in diapers. He and I click well.
When we finally had to go separate ways, he opened up about his confession to us earlier.
“I want to know about her and I expect your full support!” He says with sure confidence, “And Chinen too! I know how he doesn’t like girls and that’s why he acted really weird today!”
My mouth once again opened and let out no words.
This guy is clueless.
Finally realizing that there was nothing I could do, I nodded slightly and smiled.
He then waved and went on his way.
I stood still for exactly five seconds.
Sigh. I thought this only happened in drama.
The road was quiet and the sky was turning into a bright shade of orange as the sun was about to set. The only sounds I could hear were my shoes against the rough ground and the birds chirping.
It was just like the usual every day after-school-on-the-way-home walk, until I saw a group of guys about to approach a girl walking a few meters away from where I was.
From the looks of it, they were stalking her.
I sped up my pace and walked aside the girl, not looking at her nor making eye-contact of course. She might start to think that I was the one who was stalking her.
“Walk faster because those guys are after you.” I randomly said.
I looked behind to see if they were still there.
Yokatta. They’re gone.
I sighed and finally looked at the girl beside me.
It was Kota-san!
“Are they gone?” she asked, still not even taking a glimpse at who she was talking to.
“Yes.” I replied.
She stopped and gave a large sigh of relief. She looked up, eyes widened.
Helpless puppy face.
Finally she faces me.
“Yamada-kun!” she said in surprise, “Oh my Gosh, thank you so much!”
Finally she recognizes her savior.
“Where are your two friends? They’re usually with you on the way home, right?” I asked trying not to sound as if I was butting into her business.
She held onto her chest, still probably recovering from the shock.
I live really close by Kota-san. My house was right next to her house, and that’s how I knew that she had friends sending her home.
“Ah. They had something to do!” she managed to say.
I nodded and started to walk forward.
This girl is just too careless. It’s a good thing I exist.
I stopped. She was still standing behind me.
“Well, since it’s wrong to leave a girl to walk home on her own…” I said politely, “It’s okay if I take you home, right?”
Feeling a slightly awkward atmosphere, I gestured her to walk ahead of me.
She smiled.
All of a sudden I felt my cheeks grow hot.
What the heck?! I thought, No! I’m just embarrassed because I am not used to this, that’s all.
But her smile is so cute…
“Is it?” she asked back to me, “I mean you might have somewhere else to go.”
I scratched my head then shook it, making a face.
She smiled again.
Ow, wait. Wait. Wait! Don’t do that please!
“No.” I tried to keep my cool.
She then walked passed me. I followed.
--
When we arrived at our neighborhood, she decides to just walk on her own from there. It was going to be awkward anyway saying bye to each other and still walk to the same direction.
“Thank you Yamada-kun!” she bowed.
“It’s cool.”
--
I entered my room and slammed the door shut.
I am pooped.
Shoot. I still got homework to do.
I groaned lazily, threw myself onto my bed and kissed my pillow.

A/N: Lalalalala. Hi! Thanks for reading! REVIEW please?
Was It good? Was it bad? Should I hang myself now? Lol :3
Next chapter will be up soon. Maybe tomorrow.
