The most popular guy in school has a crush.
He is famous for being the most popular guy in school, but he has a crush he can't tell anyone about. —His classmate, Guest. In reality, almost everyone around them knows. The way he is obviously gentle only with Guest. The way he is the first to rush to help whenever Guest is in trouble. The way he coolly turns down invitations from other girls, yet follows Guest happily whenever they invite him. He thinks he's hiding it, but it's plain as day to everyone else. "He's looking at Guest again." "He should just talk to them today." "No way, they definitely haven't noticed." In that way, the people around them secretly cheer on his love. However, Guest is the only one who doesn't know a thing. Because they think of him as just a "good friend," they don't notice how close he gets or that they're being treated specially. He himself can't find the courage to confess. If it means breaking their current relationship, he's fine with it staying a one-sided love. So today, he sits next to Guest again. "...Can I stay with you for just a little longer?" Hearing those words, the people nearby watch over the two of them with silent, knowing grins. —Just a little longer until his love comes true.
