Prince Takatsuki's Mind Is Coloured Pink Chapter 1

In early April, I still felt the cold wind hitting my cheeks. As the new semester was starting, everyone pushed themselves to become familiar with the cla.s.s, everybody was fidgeting and unable to calm down. Of course, I was also one of them, but fortunately, I was able to be in the same cla.s.s as my friends from first year, I rubbed my shoulders in relief. During lunch break, we arranged our desks and ate our lunches, the variety show last night said that my 'spring was coming', a girl wearing gentle and sweet perfume stood next to me.

"Manaka-kun. Do you have a minute?"

Her sweet smell fluttered as she looked at me and gave a gentle smile.

"What is it?"

"It's kinda hard to say here…"

She was uncomfortable from the restless stares of our cla.s.smates and friends watching the exchange.

"I understand. Wait for me in the courtyard after you eat?"

She nodded gently and left the cla.s.sroom slightly embarra.s.sed.

"Hey. That was Yui Akasaki-chan."

"She has the second highest ranking among the first year girls."

"She was pretty cute~ Oh, is this a relations.h.i.+p~!"

Maeda-kun laughs, his whole body shaking.

"We plain men have to work hard for a partner."

That's right. Whether it's brains, body, or face, I was an extremely normal high school boy.

"But who knows? Since Manaka was called by Akasaki-san."

"Right? There might be this tiny, tiny chance that you'll be confessed to by Akasaki-san."

"Nonono. Doesn’t everyone know why I was called? That's definitely not it."

While I denied it, Maeda-kun closed the lunch box he finished eating.

"You're right. It's likely too late for this member to graduate from being a virgin."

He raised his mouth in a grin.

What was that. You rude b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

I lightly chopped Maeda's head along with the two others who were laughing about who would be the first to get rid of their virginity.

When I arrived at the courtyard, a couple was relaxing on the bench and some students were talking on the field. I searched for Akasaki-san but couldn't find her. As I walked a little, there was a storage shed hidden by a huge cherry tree and the school in the back. Akasaki-san was leaning on the entrance door.

"Sorry for making you wait."

"No. I'm sorry for calling you out so suddenly."

Akasaki-san walked all the way here. I felt it was a little cute. I was fascinated by the soft feeling like fluffy marshmallows she gave off.

"Manaka-kun. So it's like this…"

Looking at Akasaki-san with her cheeks dyed red, forget about my friends from before, a.s.sociating this with a confession would be normal. But I know. My friends also know. And surely all the other students in my grade know. So, Akasaki-san came to me.

"Manaka-kun. I like."

Don't misunderstand. Akasaki-san continued speaking.

"I really, really like Yamaguchi-kun."

Who is Yamaguchi-kun? I was about to say so, but my mouth was smart enough to not open at all. Good job.

"Yamaguchi-kun…?"

"Ah, right, there are two Yamaguchi-kun's. Do you know him? Basketball club… tall…"

Ah. Basketball club, tall, in the cla.s.s next door, I could remember a little. From the corner of my eye, I could see the cute girls from the cla.s.s fooling around.

"Oh yeah. I remember Yamaguchi-kun."

When I nodded, Akasaki-san was relieved and put her hand on her chest.

"Yeah, so, I like Yamaguchi-kun, I wanted to confess, but I was worried if it'd be okay…"

Her anxious and shy gaze flickered towards me.

"I see…"

I can't help it if Akasaki-san asks me like this, I thought about Yamaguchi-kun. Oh Yamaguchi-kun, Yamaguchi-kun, have I ever been in contact with you? I looked through my memories to find Yamaguchi-kun… Ah, there it is. Surely, during the time of the culture festival the cla.s.s was different, but as part of the equipment staff, I interacted with a tall and strong man. If that was Yamaguchi-kun… I tried to remember. At that time… when I received the equipment request from Yamaguchi-kun our hands touched.

(Ah, Yui-chan is cute. I want to use this culture festival to get close to her. Maybe become her boyfriend.)

The voice of Yamaguchi-kun's heart resounded in my brain. Huh. Yamaguchi-kun liked Akasaki-san. Well alright then.

"Yeah. It should be okay? Why don't you tell Yamaguchi-kun your feelings. Have some confidence?"

I smiled as softly as possible to rea.s.sure her. Akasaki-san smile brightly enough to make flowers bloom after hearing what I said.

"Really? Truly really??… It must be, if the Love G.o.d says so. Alright then! Thanks! I'll try my best to confess."

"Yeah, I'll also pray for Akasaki-san's love to work out."

Akasaki-san gave a bright smile while saying, "Thank you, Love G.o.d!" and quickly strode away. I sat down on a bench nearby after seeing she had left. Wow, girls in love are still cute.

My nickname, aka 'Love G.o.d'. Brains, physical fitness and appearance were all ordinary, but I had one special ability. To know the pink circ.u.mstances in the brain after touching the other party. It was an ability to understand who you like, what type you like, about s.e.xuality, it only gave relevant information about romance. I haven't told anyone about this ability, but because I could see these feelings, I gave advice to girls unconsciously, and now I was consulted with romance problems and gained the nickname 'Love G.o.d'. But that doesn't mean I give advice to necessarily everybody. Love is something serious, I was worried, so I only advised people who were prepared for it properly. For those who aren't serious or were dangerous, I would refuse, "Sorry, I don't have any powers." Still they heard from the several people who had success, so many people would come to me within a month. As for me, I like the smiling face of a girl in love and willing to work for it, so I give them advice.

Sitting on the bench, a nearby couple entered my sight. That's right, I don't want to just support people's love, it would also be nice to fall in love myself. Someday, I want to meet someone. If possible a gentle girl with big b.r.e.a.s.t.s. While imagining her face, I noticed someone from the same cla.s.s walking towards me while waving their hand. Ryou Takatsuki. His existence was recognized by everybody in the school. Straight nose and eyes, pale brown hair and clear skin, if someone said that he was a prince that jumped out of a fantasy novel, there wouldn't need to be any convincing.

"Weather's nice."

The voice was clear and crisp.

"Yeah, it was chilly in the morning, but now it's warm."

"Can I sit next to you?"

Takatsuki-kun was perfect, never looking down on you, talking to anyone with friendliness, he supported many people with his superior intellect and physical abilities. Takatsuki-kun was not only well-liked by girls, but also by boys. I'm sure he came up to me because he was worried about the me who was sitting by myself.

"Yeah, it's just me. Go ahead."

Here, I tapped the empty s.p.a.ce lightly, Takatsuki-kun laughed and smiled, then he slowly sat down.
