Right now, thanks to my last-minute appointment to student council member,

I'm getting to experience the jostle and squeeze of the rush hour crowds.

[ izu presents]

Hey, Class President!

Chapter 1 - The class president was... getting a different kind of rush hour squeeze.

That's enough.

Kokusai-san couldn't make it to team practice today, either.

Yeah. The vice president left, so apparently he's busy looking for a replacement.

But it's so much easier to talk to the other upperclassmen when Kokusai-san is around...

Yeah, guess so.

Oh, Chiga, you heard the rumor about him?

What rumor?

They say the former vice president harassed him, sexually...

Wait, why's he getting pissed? There's no reason to glare at me about it!

What about me?

Kokusai-san!

What, they left all the cleaning to just the two of you?

Yeah, they're bullying the weak! Please, give us a hand!

Well, if there aren't any other freshmen around, I don't mind.

That's quite all right, Kokusai-san.

We wanted the dojo all to ourselves so we volunteered for cleaning duty. You don't need to help.

More importantly...

Huh? Is Chiga... in a good mood again?

You finally got a chance to come by, so how about a little match?

My heart's started pounding...

Why are you hesitating?

Because, I mean, you look like you've gotten stronger. I don't want to go up against you.

Then why did you come to the dojo?

I'm looking for a vice president right now,

and I thought maybe Akutsu would do it, just in name would be enough.

So I came to ask him.

Akutsu! I just need to fill in a name, that'd be enough. Will you be vice president?

Crap, even Akutsu refused to do it.

Sure, because you asked him when he was meeting someone.

You should've asked him the next time you saw him around.

What is it?

I was just thinking, if you would be vice president, it'd make my life a lot easier...

Huh?!

Yeah, don't do it, Chiga! You'll never make regular on the team if you do!

You've got to be kidding me!

You just said that because you don't have anybody else left to ask, right?

I won't do it unless there's a reason it has to be me!

Wait, what are you saying?

Actually, the very first person that came to mind was you, Chiga.

But you take things seriously, unlike Akutsu, So I thought it'd be a burden on you...

I was... the first?

You always say exactly what's on your mind, so it's easy to work with you.

Then... I don't mind doing it.

You really don't mind?

Seriously?

What's wrong? Is he feeling sick?

Oh, he noticed me.

What is he...?

What the hell is that coy, blushing look...?

The class president was... getting a different kind of rush hour squeeze.

Come on, how old are you, anyway?

If someone on the train tries to feel you up, turn around and tell them no!

We-Well, you're right, but it was a man and I just, didn't have the confidence...

Well, I do understand

Right?!

Eh? You're that passionate about the subject?

How does everyone else bear it every morning?

At least one thing always gets groped..

"One thing"?!

What part of Mr. Average Joe here is so irresistible?

He's normal, completely normal! Every last thing about him--normal!

Or is it something in particular?

His skin?

His face?

His body?

His mannerisms...?

I'm kinda thirsty.

Chiga, you want some juice, too?

Ye-Yes, please!

I was just surprised--surprised, that's all!

Excuse me...

Hey, I'm gonna go show him where the exit is.

A-Are you a moron?! Just follow the frickin' signs!

I'm so, so sorry!

He-Hey! You were incredibly rude just now!

It doesn't hurt to be nice to...

The doors are closing.

He was asking you about where the exit is... right?

Huh?

U-Uh, yeah...

Eh? Uh...

Well, nevermind that.

President, from now on I'll accompany you to and from school.

You will?

That makes me feel so, so, so much better!

Why, why am I looking after an ordinary guy like him...

So I made a promise with the president to go with him to and from school starting this morning, like a bodyguard.

And already some filthy molester's got his hands on him.

Here, I'll stand around you like this, President.

Wrong!

Turn around!

Ri-Right.

Hey, your hair's all sticking up.

Well, what about yours? It's all overgrown.

Oh, his hair...

It brushes against me whenever he moves. It feels nice...

I'm going to the salon this weekend so it's fine.

Whoa, why am I getting so c-c-close?!

What're you doing?

Wha-Wha-What am I...?

And what the hell is up with my heartbeat?!

My chest feels so tight...

My heart won't stop pounding..

I can't breathe!

Ah, help me!

I just wrapped my arms around--no, no, I clung to this guy...

I guess it was anemia?

Ye-Yeah, guess so...

That's right! I'm anemic, I'm anemic, I'm anemic, I'm...

But that's nice that you're going to a salon.

Huh?

Could I come with you?

I'm sort of... embarrassed to take the first step by myself.

I don't mind.

Thanks a lot!

That was totally my stomach making that sound just now!

Okay, let's go.

I ended up making plans with the president.

Tomorrow, the president and I are going to get haircuts.

We've never gone out together outside of school before.

Let's see, where are the new clothes I just bought...

Hey, wait a second!

Why am I looking forward to this so much?!

Hello, Kokusai-san?

Yes, about tomorrow... I'll come pick you up.

Oh, really? You don't mind?

I'll be the one getting more sleep.

Hey, please make sure you're ready!

Just kidding! I'm really looking forward to this.

Oh, Akutsu just texted me. Hold on a sec.

Thanks for waiting. He's like, "Is it weird to carry around spare condoms?"

What the hell kind of question is that?!

Um, I've been wondering about this for a little while.

He always texts you or calls you, even over stupid things, doesn't he?

Well, sure, we're friends.

Oh. That's right.

You can call me or whatever whenever you want, too.

Er, but I only know your home number...

What, really? Then I'll give you my number tomorrow.

That's weird, you're my closest friend right now, too.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

Thanks.

Kokusai-san...

Hm?

Goodnight.

Chiga? I'm coming.

Hey, Chiga. Morning.

Morning

You know something...

Uh... Good morning, president.

I'm not talking about the greeting!

It's, I mean... You're so embarrassing..

And you've got an embarrassing tag sticking out.

Er, this shirt just came back from the cleaners. Guess I forgot to remove it.

Then...

Brand New

I wasn't the only one?

Kokusai-san.

What's wrong?

Uh, nothing...

Someone was there just now, watching us.

Chiga, let's go!

It occurred to me for a second that it wouldn't be too surprising if this airhead had a stalker,

and the idea scared me.

Chiga-kun!

Wow, he really does look good!

I'm so glad we ran into you!

He's so tall, with such small features!

We found out about you from the men's magazine.

You're familiar with our editorial department, right?

Could one of them have been the figure I saw...?

No, that was a man.

Today we were hoping we could do a little blurb about you in the women's magazine, too.

I'm wearing some old clothes I just threw together.

It doesn't matter!

The idea is we're showcasing the email addresses of cute guys...

I don't have a cell phone.

Liar.

There's nothing to worry about, you'll be just one picture out of about twenty guys.

It really won't cause you any trouble.

Yo-You can even take a picture with your friend, if you'd like.

Okay, in that case.

Why...?

No real reason. Just because.

I'd like to know why myself.

I don't want to do it! It's embarrassing...

There's nothing embarrassing about it. Think of it as a commemorative picture.

Er, but, I mean...

It might not even get published.

But you're the one they asked!

Is he about to cry...?

Let's take some together.

Are you getting this?

Um, well, yes...

I feel kind of, embarrassed...

Sorry!

Kokusai-san!

Um, could we get a few shots of you alone, too?

Damn it! What the hell am I doing?

Chiga! Are you all done?

Kokusai-san. I thought you'd gone home.

I wouldn't go home.

Oh, um, sorry about before. I must've really ruined the mood, huh.

No, I'm the one who should apologize for forcing you like that...

Yeah, well, I was really embarrassed. I know they didn't want me there.

Oh, really?

Is that a common thing, them taking your picture like that?

Just when they run local features. They probably don't have too many subjects they can use.

I see... You do look pretty cool, after all.

And you're adorable.

Kokusai-san, your hair is so soft.

It is, huh?

I have this feeling that maybe...

I wanted to show him off to someone.

Right now, I'm the one closest to him.

Right now, I'm the one talking to him the most.

And probably, right now...

Chiga...?

I'm the one who loves him the most.

Chiga, you stupid...!

I'm home! Grandma?

Huh? She's not home?

That's odd, she left the door open.

I can't get it out of my head...

His lips were moist... because he licked them as he leaned in.

Oh, what should I do? Something, I've got to do something--I need to calm down!

Akutsu?! I need some advice!

All right, just calm down.

O-Okay...

So, what happened?

I can't say it!

I can't tell him an underclassman's little prank made my heart throb!

Hey, didn't you go get your hair cut with Chiga?

I-I didn't get it cut!

Oh, just hearing his name is...

By the way, Chiga's practicing on his own with you, isn't he?

Tell him to keep it up.

If he loses his edge, it will affect the team competition.

O-Okay. Sorry...

No, you don't need to apologize.

Eh?

What happened?

No-Nothing, I just heard a noise... Might be a ghost? Heh, just kidding.

I'm hanging up.

Wha-?!

Stupid Akutsu. He's nice when he's texting!

The noise came from over here...

That reminds me, I unlocked the front door and came in...

It's just my cell...

Kokusai-san?

Chiga!

What? What's wrong?

No, it's nothing.

Anyway, what's up?

Hey, Kokusai-san..

About today...

It's locked.

Ugh, I'm not even sure what exactly my heart's pounding about anymore!

Are you angry?

I'm not angry.

I was worried that maybe that had been your first kiss.

I'd feel terrible if you'd been saving it.

Hey, don't patronize me.

Then, is it okay if I come pick you up Monday morning?

Ye-Yeah, thanks.

Please don't act awkward or self-conscious. You'll make me embarrassed, too.

I won't!

Bye then, I'll see you tomorrow.

Oh, wait! Wait, wait!

What is it?

I'm locking up the doors and windows. Just stay on the phone with me.

Don't laugh in my ear!

Do excuse me.

The window's locked, too.

Was it my imagination...?

Okay, I'm done now.

You are? Okay, take care.

He's so curt!

I'm kinda tired...

Kokusai-san, please don't be too hard on me.

Cocky little....!

Oh, I see. This is a dream.

This is back when Chiga had just joined the team.

Going for that move already? So cocky!

Kokusai-san.

I used to think very little of you. I thought you weren't anything special.

But I was wrong.

You really are someone who's been able to keep up with high school practice for a year.

Please spar with me again tomorrow.

Chiga says some nasty things sometimes, but he knows just what to say at the critical moment.

Huh? Wha-What's up with this dream...?

Dreams are... Dreams are supposed to be...

Unconscious desires...?

Oh my God, his tongue's in my mouth...

Chiga...!

Chiga, whe-where are you touching me?!

Seriously, where are you touching...!

Chi-Chiga...!

Kokusai, you're getting hard.

Huh? He didn't call me "Kokusai-san?"

Your body's so sensitive.

You want it bad, you little slut.

This guy isn't Chiga!

Chiga says nasty things, but he never shows contempt for other people.

I'm scared!

...sai-san!

Kokusai-san!

It's the real Chiga's voice...

Kokusai-san!

Kokusai-san!

Chi-Chiga...?

Kokusai-san.

Chiga!

I thought Chiga was the one touching me...

Damn it...

Damn it...

Who was it? I won't forgive them!

Who the hell did this to him?!

Chi-Chiga, I can't breathe...

But you're trembling in my arms...!

Chiga...?

Kokusai-san, I want you to always have that goofy smile on your face.

Peaceful, carefree, as if you have nothing to fear...
