Chapter 25: Handsome ~Fresh Protagonist~

After being absent for a day, I finally went back to school. I never thought I'd miss going to school. To be honest, it wasn't the school that I missed, but a certain someone. You know who I'm referring to...

As always, I walked to school together with Mea, met up with Momo and Nana and went to the classroom together. When we went to our seats, I couldn't help but thank Momo for making the medicine for me. Since she was seated beside me, I could already thank her, but I was too scared to talk to her.

Then she faced me and asked, "So, do you feel any better?"

I was surprised and panicked.

"Y-yes! Much better! Thank you very much for the medicine!"

"That's good to know. And you're welcome." She replied.

At that moment, my heart felt warmer. I've never felt something like that before.

After that, we began classes. But instead of Tearju-sensei, Honekawa-sensei was the one who discussed the lesson. It was so boring that half of the class immediately fell asleep. I tried to stay awake until class was over.

Thankfully, he dismissed us early. The class woke up and did some stretches. Meanwhile, I was thinking of Tearju-sensei. She hasn't been around ever since she found out about the fat guy. I wondered where she was...

Then just like that, it was lunchtime. As always, I ate lunch at the school clinic, eating only broccolli and rice. It wasn't really satisfying, but at least I got a bit of energy from it. Then as I was about to leave the clinic, I heard something fall down. I looked down and saw a bottle containing little red capsules.

I checked the label and saw "To Yume". Since it was made for me, I took one and...

The next thing I knew, I was lying down on the clinic's bed. Seated beside the bed was Oshizu.

"Ugh... What happened?"

"Yume-san!" she said in relief, "Umm... how should I put this..."

She gave me a mirror. And when I looked at it, I saw a totally different person. I was a handsome guy with flawless skin and bright eyes. I had turned into a heartthrob from a shoujo manga!

"W-w-what is this?! What happened to me?!"

"You took a pill created from plants of Planet Okiwana..." she answered.

"You mean those capsules I took were... B-but they were labeled-"

"Yes, but... I accidentally labeled the wrong medicine!" she replied.

How could she label the wrong medicine? And if she did have to label one, why use my name? She's really a pain...

"D-don't worry!" she added, "The effect hasn't kicked in yet!"

"What effect?!"

Then suddenly, the school bell rang.

"Oh, no! I'm late for class!"

I left the clinic and went straight to the classroom. Then I had this weird feeling, like the medicine was taking effect. And when I opened the door to the classroom...

I looked at the girls one by one and greeted them a good afternoon.

"My, my, there are a lot of beautiful ladies in this room." I said while placing two fingers on my forehead.

What did I just say? My body moved by itself and I said words I didn't really want to say. It was probably the effect that Oshizu was referring to. Then suddenly, the girls (and guys) started fawning over me.

"Wow, he's so handsome!"

"He's super cool!"

"I wanna go on a date with him!"

Then Mr. Honekawa asked me to go back to my seat.

"Mr. Ryoko, please go back to your seat." He said.

Then I pointed my two fingers at him and said, "You got it."

Awkwardly, he also fawned over me and said "Oh, I think I'm having a heart attack!"

After that small intro, I went to my seat. While we were having our class, half of the class stared at me instead of concentrating on the discussion. It was really hard to concentrate with them staring at me.

"Excuse me, but I'm trying to listen to the discussion."

Then they fawned over me again.

"Wow, he's handsome and he studies hard!"

"That's very admirable!"

"Please go on a date with me!"

I called on Mr. Honekawa, but he also fawned over me.

"Please, teach me!" he said.

Everybody fawned over me, except Mea, Nana and Momo. Mea even laughed at me. Nana, well, she didn't really care. And Momo... turned her back on me.

After hours of pointless staring and fawning, we were dismissed, and the effect still hasn't worn off. Even after class, they fawned over me, and I couldn't help but act cool. Then I saw Momo leave the room. I decided to run after her and apologized for what I did wrong.

However, Nana blocked the doorway and asked, "You're acting weird today! What's wrong with you?!"

Then I grabbed her hand and started uttering romantic words to her.

"Your aggressive attitude attracts even the most calm animal. No living being can be compared to your beauty!"

Then she blushed and kicked me in my between, shouting, "Y-YOU PERVERT!"

She left with an angry expression, calling me stupid and such. Meanwhile, I was left with a painful crotch. But since I wasn't really myself, I didn't feel much pain.

Then I Mea approached me and asked, "Did that hurt?"

I held her hand and replied, "Oh, my lovely Mea, How sweet of you to care for my safety. Come, let us leave this place and elope!"

It was very embarrassing to say, but I was not ashamed. It was like I could talk to anyone. But still, asking her to elope with me was immoral.

She looked me straight in the eye, then she laughed, "Haha! That was hilarious! Like anyone would fall for that!"

She laughed so hard, she fell on the ground and rolled on the floor laughing. I got a little pissed off.

"You think it's funny? Well, I'll show you that a handsome guy like me can capture the hearts of every girl in the school!"

"I'd love to see you try!" she replied.

Then I walked all over campus and winked at every girl that I came across. Pretty soon, every girl in the school had already fallen for me... except one: Momo. I looked for her and saw her in the classroom. I suddenly grabbed her hand and took her to a dark room.

"Y-Yume-san... why did you drag me here...?" she asked.

"Why you ask?"

I placed two fingers on my forehead and continued.

"Because this is the only place where we can express our love to one another!"

"W-what are you talking about?" she asked.

Then I pushed her down and laid on top of her. At that moment, I had lost control over my whole body. I groped her breasts, and she moaned so loud. I licked her neck and she moaned louder. Then I raised my head and looked at her beautiful face. It was as if my body had a mind of its own.

"Don't fight the love..."

"Y-Yume-san..." she whispered with her soft voice.

Then as I was going for the kiss, someone opened the door and saw us. I turned around to see who it was and saw Nana and the VMC, wearing an angry face.

"Y-you... PEEEEERRRVEEEEEERRT!" She shouted.

Then she kicked me on the back of my head and I suddenly went unconscious. The next thing I knew, I was lying down on the clinic's bed. Seated beside the bed was Oshizu.

"W-what happened...?"

"Yume-san!" she said in relief, "Umm... how should I put this..."

She gave me a mirror. And when I looked at it, I saw my old appearance. I've never been so happy to see my old self again.

"The side effects wore off!"

"I know! I'm so happy!" she said, "I won't get scolded anymore!"

Then I looked at her and told her not to count on it. Her smile suddenly turned to a frown. Well, I had to be honest.

After knowing that I've been cured, I went back to the classroom. My classmates made fun of me and Momo and I ignored each other for a while, but eventually, everything went back to normal. Before we knew it, we were dismissed. I left the school immediately because I didn't want anyone to see me. If they did, they would probably make fun of me. Of course, they would have already forgotten all about it, but I didn't take any risk. Then as I was walking home, Mea saw me and we walked home together.

I was a little disappointed because I never got the chance to capture everyone's hearts. The VMC probably didn't like what I did to Momo. I wouldn't either if I saw someone do something like that to her. Nana probably exploded like a volcano, but she would cool down eventually. It was all Mea's fault. She forced me to do it. I asked her why.

"Why would you make me do something so embarrassing?"

"Hm? I don't recall telling you to do it." She answered.

She was right. It was my cocky attitude that made me do it, all because I took a medicine that was wrongly labeled.

"You're right... but I can't win anyone's hearts now... I didn't even win Momo's..."

"That's not true." She said, "Because... You've already won mine!"

At that moment, my feelings for her changed. It felt so strange. Was that a confession?

She laughed a little and continued, "So if you ever want to go all the way-"

"D-don't count on it!"

And there I was wondering if she had feelings for me. As it turned out, she was only making fun of me. That's the last time I'll be accepting her challenges!


"Aww... you're so adorable!"

"Mikado... It's not funny..."

"But it's so unexpected. You never get confused with medicines."

"It wasn't my fault, it was Oshizu's."

"Next time on To Love Ru Alternate: Arcade ~It's All About Winning~!"

"That's true, she can be a klutz sometimes."

"She's always been a klutz..."
