Disciple Bizarre!
Ch. 52 - Book Store

(POV Tamaki Hoshi)

I know, I shouldn't like Akemi. But why...why do I always pound every time I see it?

"What kind of books are you looking for?" I greeted Akemi who was standing in front of the bookshelf.

"Hoshi."

"Recipe book? You want to learn to cook?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Heee. ya already, I hope to see you, yeah."

"Hoshi, what book do you want?" Akemi's words stopped my steps.

"I'm buying a comic."

"Oh, I see, yes. I hope to see you too."

"Y-yes."

Just that little talk made me flower. I really liked Akemi. Oh, shit, she's so beautiful today.

While sifting through the targeted comics, I occasionally peeked at Akemi's place. Look at him who is focused on looking for books. Her focus face was, really pretty.

Ah yes, Akemi is indeed my dream girl. Cold, genius-brained long-haired girl. The attraction is so strong.

In addition, his body was also slim, his legs were slender, and his chest part was quite prominent. What kind of girl is Akemi? Why does he have all the aspects I like?

Ah, but among all that, what I like the most is his personality. Akemi is very cool with her quiet nature. Definition of cool beauty. I don't understand why Sera is more popular in school.

"Hoshi, have you got your target comic?"

As I was thinking about it, Akemi was suddenly next to me, already picking up the book she wanted.

"Ah, y-yeah got it, but I still want to take a look." I'm telling the truth.

"Then I go first, yeah."

"Yes." Yeah."

I never thought Akemi would come and say goodbye to me. Given her indifferent nature, I thought Akemi would go straight home without greeting me first.

I don't want to linger here either. After getting three volumes of my targeted comics, I went straight to the cashier, and paid for everything.

I thought it would be the last time I met Akemi today, but apparently she was still in this place, sitting in a long chair and licking a piece of ice cream.

Despite the shade, Akemi looks hot. A drop of sweat poured out from the side of his neck. He took off his red scarf so I could see the huge star sign that had always been hidden. I just saw her for the first time.

Without saying anything, I bought ice cream at the vending machine, and sat down next to it. I was too nervous to say hello, so just shut up.

"Hoshi, why is it sitting so far away?" Akemi looked at me.

"Ah, sorry, sorry." I also shifted my sitting position.

Akemi moved out of her place, and bought another pack. Then sit back.

"Akemi, you really like ice cream, huh?"

"Yes." Yeah."

He licked his ice cream again.

This position, this position, I sit together next to Akemi. Something very rare happened. Akemi is next to me. We are just alone. Come on Hoshi, say something, talk to him!

"Akemi... What in school many invite you to date?"

"I don't know much or not, but there are some."

"Is there anything from our class?"

"There's."

"Who?"

"I can't say."

"All right...."

The situation is back in silence. I lick my ice cream, Akemi too.

"Why suddenly ask that?" Akemi looked at me.

"Ah, no, I'm just curious. You'll be ranked number one at UTS yesterday. I think people might start liking you."

"That means you don't have a boyfriend now?"

"Yes." Yeah."

That short answer made me calm and relieved. At least, right now, Akemi belongs to no one, and I still have the right to hope.

"You yourself how's Hoshi? Do you have a boyfriend?"

"I? Have girlfriends? Don't joke, Akemi. Just looking at my face, the girls laughed. If only my hair could grow like it used to." I rubbed my own head.

"I don't think so, though. To me, you're an interesting man, Hoshi."

"Interesting how?"

"Different from me, you are a pleasant person. The people who are present with you will be pleased by your witty nature. You spread happiness. And people like you, when you get a partner, will definitely be loyal to death. Love your partner and be willing to sacrifice for him. I think you're that kind of person, Hoshi."

Akemi suddenly praised. I was misbehaving. Ah, shit, shit, shit, I'm too happy to hear that.

"You're exaggerating ah, Akemi. I'm not that good, though. My mind's a little clumsy, you know for yourself, right. Shino used to announce it in class."

I remember when Shino was a wild student and announced that I was watching an adult movie last night. I was embarrassed in class.

"It's okay, Hoshi. Boys have a mind that does not exist. I get it, I get it."

"To-please don't say that. The effect is that you think I'm a pervert!"

"No, really."

"Good."

Akemi stood up from her seat. Putting back the red scarf.

"On that, you don't have to worry, Hoshi. Really am. My mind is also excited, too. Sometimes."

"Huh-huh?!"

Why did Akemi suddenly say that? I couldn't see his face because he was facing forward. Is his face red? or flat as usual?

"Anyways, you have to be confident. You're a decent man. This beautiful Akemi can guarantee."

"Y-yes, thank you, Akemi."

Why was he suddenly praising himself?!

"I'll go home first, yeah."

"Y-yes."

My heart was beating so hard. I had a good chat with Akemi just now. I've run out of energy, it doesn't feel strong anymore to talk to him. My soul can float.

"Well...."

Akemi suddenly turned around. He walked into the vending machine and bought some more ice cream. Even two straight.

"Akemi, you really like ice cream, yeah!"

He walked towards me.

"For you." He gave me one.

"Why?"

"It's okay. Just take it."

"No, I don't want to."

"Eh...." Face pouting.

"I'm full. Eating one ice cream is enough."

"Eh...." His expression has not changed.

I can't stand to see his face. Even pouting she still looks cute.

"Yes, yes, I took it. Thank you, yeah."

"Together." She smiled a little.

Ha, hah.why is he being so nice. I know, he just thinks I'm a friend, doesn't mean anything, because all he likes is Erza. But, did he not understand that his attitude could make people misunderstand?

I really like Akemi. No matter how I tried to throw it away, I still couldn't.

Yes already, this pleasant feeling, although it will end up painful, I keep it.
