She climbed onto my bike, and I passed the helmet to her as we headed towards her school. The gentle breeze caressed our skin, and a sense of excitement surged through me as I felt her arms spontaneously embrace my waist. Oh, how grateful I was in that moment to have this amazing girl, Y/n, effortlessly igniting a flutter in my heart. A genuine smile adorned my face when I stole a glance at the side mirror, observing her shutting her eyes while the winds playfully kissed her cheeks. It was adorable to see her maintain such an adorable demeanor even in such moments.

"Someone wants to court me." Y/n's remark shattered the silence, causing me to tense up upon hearing it. Intrigued by her words, my curiosity was instantly piqued. However, I refrained from asking any further questions since I already had a strong hunch about the person who desired to pursue her affection.

It was none other than Kakucho's best friend, Ryota Kise from Kaijō High School. At that moment, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, contemplating Ryota's appearance and questioning his suitability as a potential suitor for Y/n. Though I denied feeling any jealousy, deep down, a twinge of it might have existed within me.

"Just tell me if that guy treated you like a trash." I inquired as I abruptly changed direction on my bike, heading towards Rakuzan High where Y/n was diligently pursuing her studies. Knowing that this was her final year of high school, with college right around the corner, I couldn't help but feel a surge of pride for my best friend. Among the talented students at Rakuzan High, Y/n stood out as one of the most exceptional, second only to her renowned basketball player cousin, Seijuro Akashi.

As I arrived at her school and conveniently parked my bicycle, she gracefully dismounted and promptly adjusted her attire. Just then, she caught me off guard with an unexpected query, causing my eyes to open slightly wider.

"Hey, Haruchiyo," she asked innocently, "when are you going to find yourself a girlfriend?" In response, I couldn't help but chuckle with amusement. I couldn't believe it-this girl was lacking in perceptiveness, yet she had an undeniable charm in her innocence.

"That is a decision that is up to you..." I whispered quietly to myself. Unexpectedly, a sports car pulled up behind us and honked its horn as the window smoothly glided down.

"Hey there, Y/n-chan! I swung by your dormitory, but your neighbor informed me that you were with Sanzu," Ryota exclaimed, his face beaming with a captivating smile. He didn't even consider the possibility that I might be standing right next to Y/n. This guy really can't grasp a hint no matter how obvious it is at this point.

"It appears that your Prince Charming has arrived," I remarked casually before mounting my bicycle once more. However, much to my astonishment, Y/n leaned towards me and uttered softly, "I'll ride with Kise, you go ahead first, I'll see you at the prom." With a delicate touch, she tenderly brushed away a wayward strand of hair from my visage. And then, she gracefully departed, making her way towards Ryota's vehicle where she entered promptly.

When the car started moving, I couldn't help but express my annoyance by rolling my eyes. Thoughts raced through my mind as to why I was even responsible for taking care of her. However, despite my frustration, I couldn't bring myself to abandon her.

There was something about her that held me back, much like the attachment I have towards my katana. I have a tendency to cling on to things and people who hold sentimental value in my life, and she was no exception. Her presence in my life means a great deal to me; I cherish her, admire her beauty, and appreciate every aspect of her being.

I must admit that finding the right words to describe Y/n is quite difficult. She has an undeniable beauty that goes beyond mere physical attributes. Moreover, her inner strength and resilience are truly admirable. What sets her apart, however, is her genuine kindness and compassion towards others. Y/n is genuinely a good-hearted person, although some may misinterpret her actions and judgments due to her demeanor. I assure you, though, that she is not as negative as some may perceive her to be.
