The sound of my pencil tapping against my wooden desk aligned with the ticking of the clock. After receiving the note, I began to avoid Len for the rest of the day. The classes drag on longer than usual, as I waited in suspense. Not being able to concentrate on work, I kept wondering what Len wanted to tell me. At the same time glancing at him every now and then.

"Is he going to confess to me? I've only know him for a while though. What does this mean? Does he like me? Maybe? I've never had anyone like me so I don't know. This is just so scary and creepy. What should I do?"

The nostalgic Bell at the end of school rang. I slowly walk towards the back of school with a dizzy conscious. Finally I got there. Len had already arrived before me. I took a deep breath and said

"Hey, so there was something you wanted to tell me."

Len's face was facing towards the ground, with both his hands held side by side held into a fist

"I know how to say but, I like… I like…"

I froze. My entire body numb, I began to quiver assuming what was going to happen. Not know was what my reaction should be, I hesitated.

"I … I… I LIKE MIKU! PLEASE HELP ME BECOME HER BOYFRIEND!" revealed Len.

At that moment a striking pain went through my back to my chest with disappointment. Putting on a fake smile I asserted him by saying

"Don't worry I'll keep it a secret. It's a good thing you came to me first otherwise there would have been some trouble. Tomorrow come to my house and I'll teach you all about Miku before we can do anything. Plus, I'll even plan something up. Meet me by the front gate tomorrow and I'll walk you there."

"Thanks Rin, You have no idea how thankful I am."

"Well, it's a good thing I'm only charging you by the hour."

"What?"

"Nothing, see ya"

Turning around, I began to run out of school. Bit by bit I slowed down my paced as I was walking down the quiet windy road.


Reaching my house, I cooked dinner so my mother could restrain the risk of her getting another injury from the kitchen.

Deciding I wasn't hungry, I went to my room to retire early. Quickly, I brushed my teeth and changed into my pj's. I flopped onto my orange bed with its silk covers along with embroidered patterns on the side, feeling its brisk coldness reach me. My bed was soft, and yet it felt like it was made out of only hard timber. Turning on the stereo, I put on some music to clear my mind of today's events. It ceased to release me from the thing that was stuck at my throat as I burrowed myself deep into the covers. "It's not like he really was going to confess to me. That's right... there's nothing too confess. I've only know Why am I so stupid to even think someone would like me? I should be happy shouldn't I, yet why am I feeling like this. Why? Why? Why am I just so pathetic like this? Why can't I even be happy for my best friend? And here I am feeling sorry for myself it's so deplorable. I only know how to be selfish." I sigh. Slowly I drifted into a slumber.


Waking up, I felt reluctant to go to school, however I had already promise Len. After school Len once again arrived beforehand. He stood there with a fierce determination look in his eye. It was kinda cute.

"Hey," Len waved

"Well, hello there stranger. You ready for the big fight? Whose it gonna be today? Big Joe? Slim Jim?" I asked

"What?"

"Nothing, you just look like you're gonna knock someone out with your fist. Like all Bruce Lee you know?"

"Oh sorry,"

"Relax, it's alright with me and I'm sure Miku would want an over protective boyfriend. Just not looking at her, ever."

"Okay, I get the idea. I'll stop."

"Good. Now follow me. We have a lot to go through so it's a good thing my mum's working late at the hospital."

Just as we began walking Len asked

"Your mother works at the hospital?"

"Yeah, she's a nurse. She mostly on weekdays and rarely work over time cause she's worried about me. So, today is a rare occasion."

"Sorry, I must be a bother."

"No, it's alright. I don't mind at all. I like spending time like this." I gave him a smile.


(Len's POV)

When we arrived, Rin gave me a quick tour of her house and lead me to the living room where she had her white board all set up and ready. I went to Rin in the first place because I knew her better then Miku other friends. I just wanted to get some advice. I never intended to end up like this with Rin supporting me and making up plans and strategies to get her.

"Okay listen, cause I'm not gonna repeat myself." Rin announced. I nodded my head.

"Miku's major weakness is leeks. The minute you mentions leeks she'll love you immediately." Said Rin

"Leeks? That's a bit weird." I replied.

"Yeah I know. She can't get enough of the stuff. It's like cocaine to her. I told so many times if you're gonna obsess over something it should a fruit like an orange or something."

"Well, I guess I can change my taste," I thought.

"Don't worry about that now. The formal is coming up in a month right?" sternly asked Rin.

"Yeah?"

She kept staring at me with a cunning grin on her face like she had some diabolical plan.

"No, you don't mean. No, I can't. It's too early." I refused.

"Yeah sure can. Just give her a leek with a bow on it and ask her. I'll be even be there with you if you want."

"If you say I can."

"That's a good boy. Now, text her to met with her behind the school before school."

"Now? Already? But there's still a month!" I argued

"No time like the present my friend."

I did has I was told and immediately took out my phone. My hands kept shaking as I (tried to) press the buttons. Then I realised I didn't have her number and sighed in relief. Rin grabbed my phone and begin pressing Miku's number in and ran with my phone as chased her around her living room.

"Hey Rin! Stop! She's gonna think I'm a stalker!" I shouted.

"Well you'll have to get used to her calling you that, cause I'm texting her using your name. Miku, met me behind the school at 7:45, Len."

"NO RIN! Arrgh…"

Out of nowhere, I tripped and fell on top of Rin in an awkward position. Our faces only a couple of centimeters away. I got up while blushed and I'm pretty sure Rin was too.

"Sorry," I apologised

"Um, it's alright. It's not your fault." She said

"I should be going now. Bye."

I grabbed my bag and phone and headed for the door.

"Wait!" Rin Shouted

"Don't forget I'll be there to support you ok?"

"Right, see you Rin." I gave her a smile and left.


"Ok you ready?" Rin asked

"No," I said hesitantly shaking my head.

"Don't worry you'll be fine. Look there she is! Go!" whispered Rin.

From behind she pushed me towards Miku who was standing there and hid behind the building.

"Len," she sad

"Miku, I was wondering, if you want to go to the formal with me. If you free that is. Um sorry forget I,"

"No, I'll go"

"Really?" I asked

She nodded her head while smiling.

"Then I'll see you around Len."

"See you,"

And with just that she skipped off. I couldn't realise it just happened. She agreed to go with me. I went to look for Rin to thank her, but couldn't find her. I thought "Oh well I thank her some other time" All I knew was that I was really happy.
