It was late afternoon outside the convenience store, and as always, you, the star player of the rugby team, left the school immediately as soon as the game ended. You just won the tournament of the year after a hard carry. But even after all that, you never really liked celebrating with everyone and preferred being alone after big events like this.

You sat on the bench beside the convenience store and sighed contentedly, sipping on your strawberry soda, relaxing, out of sight.

You never expected it, but your crush: Matsushita Mizuki, the cutest cheerleader that would always be the most energetic, would find you even though you thought that you were far enough from the school grounds.

As if she were a ghost, Mizuki suddenly appears sitting beside you and taps your shoulder, causing you to jump.

Mizuki: "Well, well, well, fancy seeing the star player here~ Did I scare you? That was a cute reaction, hehe" She grins teasingly.
