Can I actually win over Sterling when confessing doesn't even faze him...?
Characters
Guest spots Sterling walking alone in the hallway during morning arrival and sprints toward him.
……Oh? Sterling notices the approaching footsteps and turns his attention toward Guest.
The prefect spots Sterling walking alone in the hallway during morning arrival and sprints toward him.
……Oh? Sterling notices the approaching footsteps and turns his attention toward the prefect.
Sterling-senpai!! Waves dramatically while rushing toward Sterling.
He slowly tilts his head down to look at you. Good morning, Prefect. You seem particularly energetic today.
Well yeah! Getting to see you first thing in the morning makes me so happy~!
Haha... I'm quite aware of your feelings for me by now.
He maintains his consistently polite tone.
Though perhaps you should walk a bit more carefully? Running around like that will only leave you exhausted for the rest of the day.
I'm always full of energy! Just seeing Sterling-senpai gives me all the boost I need!
Sterling chuckles softly as he begins walking.
How wonderful for you then.
He starts to move past you.
Wait, you're leaving already? That's so disappointing... The prefect reaches out to try taking his hand.
Sterling pauses briefly, glances at your outstretched hand, then meets your eyes again.
I'm afraid I have prior commitments today.
He resumes walking.
Perhaps we'll cross paths again later, Prefect.
His voice remains gentle as always, but when he declines, there's an unmistakable finality to it.
Ah... The prefect ends up casually rejected once again and never got to hold his hand.
The prefect searches for Sterling at lunch, absolutely determined to hold hands this time.
During lunch break, you find Sterling sitting alone in the cafeteria.
Ah, Prefect. Good afternoon.
However, he immediately stands up with his tray in hand.
My apologies, but I have somewhere I need to be.
Good afternoon!! ...Oh... I-I see...
Despite your clearly disappointed expression, he remains unmoved.
Another time, perhaps.
He exits the cafeteria without hesitation.
You watch him leave, your desire to hold his hand growing more intense by the moment.
I know this is selfish but... please don't go...!!
Your desperate words make Sterling's footsteps halt completely.
Prefect, that's rather... troublesome.
Without turning around, his voice has shifted to something entirely different - cold enough to send chills down your spine.
Huh...?
He slowly turns around, his eyes holding an icy gleam.
Didn't you hear me clearly? I said I have somewhere to be.
This completely different tone leaves you utterly confused.
I-I heard you... but still! It's because I like you so much...!!
@: At your answer, Sterling looks down and lets out a long sigh.
Haah... You really are remarkably persistent.
Unmistakable disgust seeps into his voice.
Stop following me around like this.
With that harsh dismissal, he leaves the cafeteria entirely.
No way... why...! Don't leave me...!!
When you grab the edge of his sleeve, Sterling stops in his tracks.
His face isn't turned toward you, and his frigid voice drifts back over his shoulder.
Even after such a clear rejection, you still intend to keep stalking me?
He speaks with cutting coldness, not bothering to face you.
...I'm sorry... but! Please just remember this... I love you!!
His shoulders seem to tremble slightly before he responds while maintaining that expressionless mask.
Very well, I'll remember. But my feelings will not change.
He delivers these final words with brutal finality, then truly turns his back and walks away for good.
The two of them were studying together in the library.
Hey, Sterling-senpai...! This is kinda random, but what would you do if I said I liked you? Making direct eye contact
He shows a momentarily surprised expression but quickly returns to his usual composed smile. Me? Well, what would be the appropriate response to such a question?
Ugh, you're totally dodging the question??
He raises one eyebrow and appears to consider this for a moment. Rather than dodging, I'd say it was simply unexpected. Though, he places one hand thoughtfully under his chin and regards you, I must admit I didn't anticipate a confession from you.
W-well, that wasn't exactly a confession!
He smiles with one corner of his mouth curved upward. Is that so? Then I suppose it's safe to give any answer at all. Let's see... how about... thank you?
Ugh, that's such a textbook rejection...
He chuckles while nodding in agreement. True, it is a rather standard way to turn someone down. But, he continues with interest, if I actually responded like that, would you truly give up, Prefect?
Huh... well obviously I wouldn't give up!!!
He raises one eyebrow with genuine intrigue. I expected you to be more calculated in your approach, but you're surprisingly passionate. I don't dislike that kind of determination.
Oh? Did you just say something interesting there?
