Ichinose Honami Short Story: Small Heartbeats


The time crept closer towards midnight. I’ve been hanging around in the rooms of several boys from Class B before, but staying at a boy’s room at this hour was a first for me.


Furthermore, being alone together with a boy like now was obviously something I haven’t experienced yet.


We were done discussing the topic I had to talk about.


I just have to drink this cup of hot chocolate I held in my hands before returning back.


«Hey, Ayanokouji-kun.»


I stared at the cup while calling out to him.


«Hmm?»


He replied back with the blank face he always had, or pretty close to it, as I could feel a sense of composure from it.


«Ayanokouji-kun, are you perhaps someone really amazing?»


«What makes you think so? Sorry, but that’s something I’m not aware of.»


«That’s even more amazing if so. I mean, Ayanokouji-kun…»


You saved Sakura-san. The actions you took during the special exam aboard the cruiser. How fast you were during the sports festival…


Yes, that’s right. There’s no doubt about it.


This person, Ayanokouji-kun is a very intelligent person.


I can’t come up with an example but…I can’t come up with words to explain how great he seems to be…


Isn’t he a person we should be way, way more cautious of than Horikita-san or Hirata-kun after all?


But if that’s true…


«What is it?»


«No, nothing at all.»


I was assaulted with the feeling of something tightening inside me and averted my eyes.


He will surely become a formidable enemy.


And then, we will be unable to spend time and laugh together like this anymore.


I have to remember this fact.


I know. I know that this is inevitable due to the school rules. The fact that we are in separate classes is something we can’t fight. I will prepare myself for that time.


But now, only for now…I want to talk to him just like a normal girl.


«…what’s this, I wonder…»


This, strange feeling.


Even though I was talking to him just recently, just as usual.


For some reason, I could feel my heart beating softly.
