So I thought I'll try to make a romance story. I'm apologizing in advance if ever Yamamoto is OOC.

I do not and will never own KHR.


I'll Make You Fall


Clutching your school bag, you walked your merry way to school. The wind was picking up and it breezed past you, making your hair flutter. You tucked some (haircolor) hair strands behind your ear as you observed your surroundings. The birds were doing their things as usual; chirping and flying ever so freely. The trees were shredding flowers making the atmosphere light and cheery. In your perspective, nothing could ever go wrong.

You got to school on time which was very lucky on your part, since observing took a lot of time in your morning stroll. You thought it would be very unfortunate if you were to be late because it'll be your first time and that would dirty your clean record of no lates and absences. You were a straight A student and you always cared about your grades and class standing.

You got inside the classroom and saw that the teacher was not there yet. Sitting down, you thought of the lesson which you read on advance last night. You also took out your Math textbook—it was the first subject—and began to scan the pages and review.

While you were memorizing some formulas, you can't help but be disturbed. You felt that someone was watching you and it irked you to no end because it was ruining your concentration. Glancing to your right, you came face to face with a black-haired guy. When your (eyecolor) eyes met his chocolate ones, he just smiled sheepishly, which earned him a cocked eyebrow from you. You ignored him and went back to your precious book.

But still, you couldn't concentrate with him staring at you for no particular reason. Who was he again? You thought for his name and eventually, you remembered him as the popular member of the baseball club, Yamamoto Takeshi. He was popular with the girls—well, except for you—with his friendly demeanour and "badass" skill in baseball.

You furrowed your eyebrows upon remembering. You couldn't stand guys like that, basically because athletic guys were an enemy to your kind. You were a geek, he's a sporty with a birdbrain and it wouldn't be a good combination. His friendliness was also a factor, mainly because you were a socially awkward person with no other goal than to study.

You closed your book in time when the teacher walked in.


The sound of the crying bell echoed through the whole campus.

The day had not been one of your bests. The class would be tolerable if it weren't for your staring neighbour, who had been staring for almost all of the classes which only resulted in you, unable to concentrate a bit on your academics.

Everyone—including you—was preparing to leave with the exception of him. Watching from the corner of your eye, you saw him with his two friends, one whom you recognized as Sawada Tsunayoshi and one being Gokudera Hayato. They were chatting and at the same time were glancing at you from time to time.

"What's their problem?!" you thought.

Have you done something wrong? As far as you know, you weren't really interacting with anyone in the school, save for the teachers and your companions in the Painting club and Music club. You haven't even talked to any of them. Or have you? It was fairly impossible so you dismissed the thought and decided to leave the room.

But a hand grabbed your arm, preventing you from doing so. You spun around and Yamamoto was at it again, staring at you. It took a lot of time before he was able to speak. With his ever-present smile, he said, "Please come with me. I want to tell you something."

"This is bad!" you thought. If you were seen it would definitely stir some trouble with this boy's fan girls, and they were the people whom you were actually trying to avoid. Good thing that there were no other students in the room. When you thought about it, did they do it on purpose?

You thought that it would be better not to mess with the girls, but your curiosity got the better of you.

What did he want to say? Was it about earlier? Did he want to apologize for staring at you for no reason? Only one way to find out, you thought. You reluctantly agreed and followed him out of the classroom, catching wind of Sawada's good luck to Yamamoto.

He took you behind the school's building. For a minute, he had his back on you and he seemed to be emanating a nervous aura. When he turned around and faced you, he looked serious.

"Listen, I just want you to know that," he paused.

You waited for him to continue but you were surprised when he laughed with a cheery tone.

"I'm really no good with this kind of thing, huh?" he looked at you in the eye. "Look, I know we're not that close but I want you to know that I like you. Out of all the girls I've met, you're the only one who caught my eye."

Pause.

"Does it sound cheesy?" he asked.

You were definitely not expecting this. The events earlier and Sawada's yell should be enough of a clue to the confession but you were not actually an expert to those kinds of things. It was the first time that you were confessed to and you admit that it actually made you happy.

You were really feeling bad about rejecting him, but you had to. You had things on your priority list and love was not included.

"I'm sorry, Yamamoto-san, but I'm afraid that I have to say that I don't feel the same. I'm sorry that I can't reciprocate your feelings. Really, I'm sorry," you bowed your head and apologized.

He laughed again and scratched the back of his head, "No don't apologize! I knew one way or another that I'll be rejected." He cast his gaze down, "But still...isn't there a way for you to change your mind?"

He was really testing your patience. You had things that you have to do and yet there he was wasting your precious time. You crossed your arms and said, "Don't be preposterous. I'm sorry to say this but there's no way I'll change my mind."

He looked at you straight in the eye, smiled and said, "Then let me change it for you. I'll make you fall for me in ten days. After that, if you still don't like me, then I'll forget about my feelings."

You didn't know what possessed you to agree.


So how was it? Let me know through your reviews~!
