I wondered why Hanako had asked No.1 to tell me to meet him at the practice garden, as I skipped through the hallway. Maybe he wanted to hang out or something, I wasn't sure but I was happy it wasn't cleaning duty. When I got to the garden I just stood there and gasped. There was a small patch of red Camilla flowers and right in the middle of them Hanako stood with his signature smile on his face.

"Yashiro! I'm glad you came, I thought you would like to cloud watch with me and when it gets late enough we can gaze at the stars." Said Hanako in a rather light and upbeat tone.

"Oh Hanako,you shouldn't have this is so sweet!" I smiled back.

Just then I saw Minamoto-senpai walk across the field with another girl, she was pretty and had skinny legs. I teared up seeing my prince with another girl, I thought I was over him but I wasn't.

"Hey yashiro do you want-Oh." Hanako started in a clearly annoyed and disgusted tone.

"Yashiro why do you still think about him when you have me? I mean I'm way better and I treat you better." Hanako stated.

I shake off my tears and look at Hanako-kun giving him a small smile.

"Yeah thanks to you I always will have someone to call a friend!" That's what I said but after I said that Hanako looked so hurt but he quickly smiled and moved on to a different topic.

I had planned to do this for a while and spend time with yashiro. After talking to the kid yesterday I thought that it would be perfect time to confess to her as it has been a while since she got over . But clearly I was wrong, she wasn't over it. Thanks to Yashiro cleaning the bathroom I had time to take care of the red Camellias and practically begged Tsuchigomori-sensei to help him make strawberry filled rice-cakes all for this moment. All to be friend-Zoned because of . I was devastated but what could I do,I was right there was no way she would ever love me. But I can't fall apart now not when she needs support otherwise what kind of friend would I be?

In the Camellia patch of the garden, you could see two figures enjoying each other's company. One love struck and the other heart broken, talking and smiling as the sunset behind them.
