January - Infuriante Heart Throbbing
It's the last Sunday of January.
Syo-kun and I promised each other that we'll practice together, but….
Even though 30 minutes have passed after the time we were supposed to meet, he hasn't messaged me yet. Could it be that he has collapsed from one of his heart attacks?
I grow worried and visit his room, but….
I see Shinomiya-san in his swimming shorts chasing Syo-kun around the room.
Syo Kurusu: I'm telling you to stop chasing me!
Natsuki Shinomiya: I'm fine if it's you, Syo-chan.
Syo Kurusu: I refuse!
Haruka Nanami: …U-um… What's going on?
Syo Kurusu: Bwuh! Haruka!
Natsuki Shinomiya: Ah, Nanami-san, do you want to join us?
Syo Kurusu: Don't drag her into this! I want no part of this, either!
Select the Phrase!
1) お邪魔しました。 I'm sorry for interrupting. (+15 Love +0 Music)
I feel like I've interrupted them and place my hand on the doorknob.
Syo Kurusu: Wait! Don't go! Don't leave me alone!
Natsuki Shinomiya: You're not alone, I'm here with you.
Syo Kurusu: That's not what I mean!
Haruka Nanami: Umm…. What are you two doing?
Natsuki Shinomiya: I was thinking that we should exercise in the pool, especially because it's winter.
This seems to be Shinomiya-san's suggestion to strengthen up Syo-kun.
Haruka Nanami: Huh… I see.
2) 一体何が・・・ What's going on… (+10 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: What's going on? Well….
Natsuki Shinomiya: I want Syo-chan to swim in the pool with me. The best way to improve your lung capacity is swimming.
Haruka Nanami: Ah… I see…. So that's why you're in a swimming suit.
3) 楽しそうですね。 Looks fun! (+5 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: Are you out of your mind?! What makes you think we're having fun?!
Haruka Nanami: Ah… Um…. I just thought Shinomiya-san looked like he was having a lot of fun.
Natsuki Shinomiya: Yes, I'm having so much fun! I'm going to the pool with Syo-chan.
Haruka Nanami: Ah… yes, you're wearing a swimsuit.
Syo Kurusu: I've already made it VERY clear that I don't want to go!
Natsuki Shinomiya: But I'm already wearing my swimsuit….
Syo Kurusu: That's YOUR choice, so go by yourself!
Shinomiya-san pouts at him, looking so lonely.
Syo Kurusu: Y-you can make that face all you want, I won't go….
Natsuki Shinomiya: Would you like to come with us?
Haruka Nanami: Huh? But… I don't have a swimming suit….
Natsuki Shinomiya: That is no problem at all. I thought such an opportunity would arise one day, so I've already purchased one for you.
Haruka Nanami: Huh…?
Shinomiya-san takes out a swimming suit out of his dresser.
With a smile, he steps towards me with the swimming suit in his hands.
Haruka Nanami: Um… uh….
Natsuki Shinomiya: Would you care to change?
SELECT THE PHRASE!
1) え・・・あ、あの・・・ Huh? U-Um…. (+0 Love +0 Music)
Natsuki Shinomiya: I'm sure you'll look lovely in it!
Shinomiya-san smiles cheerfully.
No, that isn't it…
I'm not sure what to do, so I look at Syo-kun for help.
2) こ、ここでですか? H-here? (+0 Love +0 Music)
Natsuki Shinomiya: It'll be alright. We'll be the only ones here.
Haruka Nanami: No, that's actually the problem….
Natsuki Shinomiya: If you're shy, you can close your eyes.
Haruka Nanami: Do I have to change…?
Natsuki Shinomiya: I can help you.
Help… me…?
3) しょ、翔くん・・・ S-Syo-kun…. (+20 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: Stop, Natsuki. Don't touch her!
Natsuki Shinomiya: Hm? I'm just helping her change. Ah, can it be….
You want to help her change too? Then you can join me….
Huh…?
Syo Kurusu: ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!
Thwack!
Syo-kun does a jump kick to the back of Shinomiya-san's head.
Then….
Tink.
Shinomiya-san's glassses… have fallen off.
RUMBLE…!
Haruka Nanami: S-Syo-kun, Shinomiya-san's glasses....
Syo Kurusu: Got it!
Syo-kun tackles Shinomiya-san and pins him down.
Huh…? Shinomiya-san's not his normal self right now, so this is….
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun…. You can't. This is too dangerous….
Syo Kurusu: I'm fine! Grab the glasses and put them on him!
Haruka Nanami: But…
Syo Kurusu: This isn't for show, okay?! I can pin him down for at most three minutes, so hurry up!
Haruka Nanami: Y-yes, sir!
Enveloped by a dark aura, Shinomiya-san glares at him with the eyes of a demon and tries to get his arms free.
Despite that, Syo-kun still manages to firmly pin Shinomiya-san's body down.
I dart behind Shinomiya-san and place his glasses over his face.
Natsuki Shinomiya: Huh? Syo-chan?
Shinomiya-san has returned to normal.
Syo Kurusu: Sheesh, you're a handful….
Natsuki Shinomiya: Hehe, I'm so happy! I didn't think you would ever give me a hug…!
Syo Kurusu: Huh?! No, this isn't–
Natsuki Shinomiya: Yay! Here's a hug in return!
Shinomiya-san squeezes Syo-kun with all his might.
Syo Kurusu: AAH! QUIT IT! OW! I'll die, I'LL DIE!
Syo-kun…. He was so scared of his alternate personality up until now….
He has grown over time. Maybe one day he could win against Shinomiya-san without his glasses.
Syo Kurusu: We ended up here anyway.
Unable to refuse Shinomiya-san's invitation, we arrive at the pool.
Natsuki Shinomiya: Hehe, I'm so happy! Let's go swimming!
Shinomiya-san cheerfully jumps into the pool.
Syo Kurusu: Sheesh, what a handful. I'll do what you say this time.
His words sound annoyed, but he is softly smiling.
Syo-kun is so kind.
Everyone must love him for that.
Including me....
Syo Kurusu: And… that swimming suit….
Syo-kun glances at me but immediately turns away.
I ended up changing in the end, but in a changing room instead of their dorm room….
I'm wearing the swimming suit Shinomiya-san bought me….
I feel embarrassed.
Syo Kurusu: It looks nice on you… but your chest is… too exposed. I'm not sure… where to look….
Haruka Nanami: Ah, I'm so sorry!
Syo Kurusu: No, that's not it…! You did nothing wrong, but… just put on a bath towel. I don't… want Natsuki to see you like this.
Haruka Nanami: Okay.
Syo-kun proceeds to start swimming with Shinomiya-san, but….
Natsuki Shinomiya: Syo-chan, let's swim together.
Syo Kurusu: Huh? H-Hey, stop…!
Shinomiya-san grips Syo-kun's hand and starts swimming furiously.
Syo Kurusu: AAAAAAH!!!
Syo-kun is pulled under the water at such a breakneck speed that he can't take a breath and goes limp almost immediately.
Natsuki Shinomiya: Huh? Ah! Syo-chan! Wake up, Syo-chan!
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun!
I panic and try to jump into the pool.
SLIP!
I trip just before jumping and end up diving head first into the pool.
I… can't breathe….
I'm… losing consciousness…. Syo-kun….
Syo Kurusu: Haruka! Hey, Haruka! Wake up! Damn, it's no use….
Natsuki Shinomiya: At this rate, she'll need artificial respiration….
Syo Kurusu: Artificial… respiration…?
Natsuki Shinomiya: It's like a kiss.
Syo Kurusu: Yeah, I know… Damn it. Calm down, heart. I have to… save her….
Natsuki Shinomiya: Can you do it? Should I do it, instead? It's all my fault, after all.
Syo Kurusu: Ugh, haa, haa…. No, I'll… do it….
Nn!
Haruka! I'll… save you! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8….
Haruka Nanami: Nn…. Syo…kun?
Syo Kurusu: Haruka! I'm so glad you're awake…!
SELECT THE PHRASE!
1) 平気・・・なの? Are you… okay? (+10 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: That's my line, you idiot… haa, haa. Don't… make me worried, haa…
Syo-kun…
Syo Kurusu: Haa, haa. I'm just… glad you're okay….
2) ありがとう。Thank you. (+20 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: Instead of thanking me, haa, haa…. Don't go drowning, idiot…. But I'm glad you're okay….
3) 助けて・・・くれたの?Did you… save me? (+20 Love +0 Music)
Syo Kurusu: Of course I would…. You're the one who tried saving me first…. Haa, haa….
Don't go recklessly running off and tripping over your own feet…. Don't make me imagine a life without you…. Idiot….
Syo Kurusu: Haa, haa…. Ugh….
Syo-kun grips his chest and collapses.
Natsuki Shinomiya: Ahh! Syo-chan!
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun…. Syo-kun!!
Syo-kun suffered a heart attack after nearly drowning, but he came to save me after I fell into the pool.
Shinomiya-san and I carry Syo-kun to their dorm room.
Shinomiya-san leaves the room to tell the teacher about the situation.
Syo Kurusu: Nn… Haruka….
Syo-kun calls out for me in a pained voice.
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun, I'm here. I'm right here.
I grip Syo-kun's hand.
Syo-kun's expression softens.
Syo Kurusu: I'm glad… you're… okay….
Haruka Nanami: Yes, I'm okay because you saved me….
Haruka Nanami: I'm sorry, I'm so sorry…. I pushed you this far because I nearly drowned….
Tears overflow and fall onto our joined hands.
Syo Kurusu: Don't… cry… idiot. It's… not your fault.
He pats my head with his free hand. When I look up at him, I see that he is now sitting up.
Haruka Nanami: No, Syo-kun. You need rest….
Syo Kurusu: This is no trouble for me…. Seeing you cry is much more painful….
Syo-kun wipes away my tears with the back of his index finger.
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun!
I don't want him to overexert himself anymore. I embrace him and pin him on the bed.
Syo Kurusu: You…! Idiot, what are you doing….
Haruka Nanami: Go back to sleep! You shouldn't push yourself. I will stay like this until you fall asleep!
Syo Kurusu: You really are bossy sometimes…. I'm so uncool for being pushed down by a girl….
Haruka Nanami: Ah, I-I'm so sorry!
I become embarrassed and let go.
But…
Syo Kurusu: It's okay, let's stay like this for a little longer….
He grabs my hand and pulls me in.
Syo Kurusu: Stop crying…. Don't make that face. Nn….
Syo-kun leans in and kisses me.
His first kiss is light.
Syo Kurusu: Nn….
The second kiss is so sweet that it melts me away, a mature kiss that sends an electric shock to my heart.
Syo Kurusu: You finally stopped crying…. A smile suits you best….
If kissing you stops your tears, then I'll kiss you as many times as you need.
If hugging you makes you smile, then I'll keep hugging you for the rest of your life. You'll be right here in my arms….
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun… Thank you….
Kaoru Kurusu: HUH?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!!
Surprised by his yelling, we push each other away.
Kaoru Kurusu: I ran here as fast as I could when I heard you collapsed, but… were you two really dating this entire time?!
I thought you two were just trying to trick me… So that was all true? I didn't think I could be fooled like that….
H-Huh? So he knew that our kiss back in November wasn't real?
Kaoru Kurusu: It's dangerous for you to be in love…. Your feelings will become unstable and stress you out mentally and physically….
You'll be in a constant state of stress, which will strain your heart even more….
Kaoru-kun looks at me and Syo-kun, then bites his lip.
He grabs my hand.
Kaoru Kurusu: Come with me! I need a word with you. Ah, and Syo-chan, you're not allowed to come under any circumstances!
He pulls me out of the room.
Kaoru Kurusu: …Syo-chan's heart is already at its limit.
He had no trouble in his everyday life up until he came to this academy, so I don't think he noticed anything wrong.
He must've really overexerted himself here. If he gets another heart attack like that… who knows what will happen to him.
Haruka Nanami: Huh…?
Kaoru Kurusu: When he was a child, he was told that reaching twenty years old would be a miracle. His health improved since then, but….
Haruka Nanami: Twenty… years old….
His condition was that bad? Is that why he tries so hard to live out every single day to his fullest…?
Syo-kun is always trying to make new memories and treasures the time he spends with others.
Could it be that it was because his lifespan is most likely shorter than most people?
Kaoru Kurusu: Right now, he could collapse at any moment and yet no matter how many times I try to stop him, he doesn't give up.
At this rate, Syo-chan will be in danger…. He doesn't have to be an idol. I just want him to be safe….
I wanted to always be by his side and protect him. I thought that if push comes to shove, I would stop him using any means necessary.
But since I wasn't able to enroll into this school, I've had to be away from him and I felt so uneasy.
However, I believed Syo-chan when he told me that he's okay….
But this is what he was doing? He breaks the school rules by falling in love, and even getting a girlfriend?
On top of all that, despite collapsing, he goes on and makes out with you.
I don't know what Syo-chan wants to do with himself anymore.
Why… does he keep doing things that just shorten his life….
Kaoru-kun glares at me.
Kaoru Kurusu: Please break up with Syo-chan. Tell him to stop being an idol….
Haruka Nanami: I can't.
I know how much Syo-kun wants to be an idol and how seriously he is working towards being in the industry.
Kaoru Kurusu: But why? Aren't you worried about Syo-chan?
Haruka Nanami: Of course I am, but… I believe in Syo-kun.
If he says that he'll be okay, then it has to be true.
He's stronger and more honest than anybody else. He'll do anything to achieve his dreams.
I fell in love with and admire that side of him.
He has the strength to overcome any obstacles.
Haruka Nanami: That's why I can't stop him from aiming to become an idol. I want to help him achieve that dream.
I'll be by his side forever and ever.
Kaoru Kurusu: Why don't you understand? At this rate, he might die!
Don't you love him? If you really do, then back off. Think what's best for him!
Haruka Nanami: I'm scared too. I don't want to think of a world without Syo-kun.
I would leave him if that's what it takes to save him, but… this isn't the case.
Syo-kun is living his life. He's running towards his dream.
If we stop him, Syo-kun and his soul… will surely die.
My role is supporting him and making an easier path for him. I can't stop him from running.
Kaoru Kurusu: Ugh! You understand nothing! This is enough, I won't ask help from you anymore! I won't give up on him!
Kaoru-kun glares at me again and leaves me.
The next day, the principal calls me and Syo-kun to his office.
Shining Saotome: You understand why I've called you here today?
Syo Kurusu: Nope, not one clue at all.
Shining Saotome: You've got attitude, Shorty. That's why you got the gall to break our no-dating rule.
Syo Kurusu: Wh-Why do you know about that…?!
Shining Saotome: Hahaha~ My Shining Eye sees all!
Ryuya Hyuga: Yesterday, we got an anonymous tip that you two are dating.
Syo Kurusu: Ugh… Who tipped you…
Ryuya Hyuga: Shorty… I was really hoping this wasn't true… but your reaction just proves it.
Syo-kun clenches his fist tightly, then reaches out and holds my hand.
I feel the warmth coming from him.
Syo Kurusu: Yeah, I'm in love with her. I refuse to make any excuses!
Shining Saotome: Hrrrm… you've got some nerves, Shorty!
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun… why? You might be expelled and become unable to ever become an idol!
Syo Kurusu: Idiot. There's no point in pretending otherwise. Just leave it to me.
Syo-kun meets the principal's gaze.
Syo Kurusu: I understand why you don't allow dating and won't try to refute it.
What I did was definitely against the rules, but I have the confidence that I can hide my relationship with her.
Shining Saotome: Hoho?
Syo Kurusu: I will never cause a scandal. If necessary, I will never kiss or hug her ever again.
I just want to debut with her song. I'll become a professional idol with her as my composer even if it means costing my life.
I want to do my best with her. She is absolutely necessary for me to keep fighting.
Ryuya Hyuga: Kurusu… you….
Syo Kurusu: In other words, I can fight as long as we're together. I can break into the industry! I can get a million sales easy!
Shining Saotome: You, getting a million sales easy? I like that attitude!
Syo Kurusu: Neither of us can give our 100% if we are separated. That's how strong our teamwork is.
If you don't take advantage of that, wouldn't the Shining Agency lose out?
Shining Saotome: Yeah, that would be a big loss for us!
Syo Kurusu: That's how much we're worth. We've been here for over half a year. You should know how valuable we are.
I won't say you should take away your rule, but I want you to give us permission to team up to work towards being professionals.
Shining Saotome: Hmm…. So what about you, Miss Nanami? Can you fight while sealing away your romantic feelings?
SELECT THE PHRASE!
1) ・・・はい。...Yes. (+0 Love +10 Music)
Haruka Nanami: If that leads us to achieving our dreams.
2) 戦えます! I can fight! (+10 Love +15 Music)
Haruka Nanami: I can overcome anything as long as I'm with Syo-kun!
Syo Kurusu: Haruka…! Thank you.
3) が、頑張ります・・・ I-I'll try…. (+0 Love +0 Music)
Haruka Nanami: I'll do my best!
Shining Saotome: Hmm, I see that you two have your minds made up!
Ryuya Hyuga: I agree, it would be a waste to throw away their talent. They're the kind of people we want in our agency.
Hey, President. I want to bet on them. Can we let them be?
I feel like they can make it, so I beg of you, please don't expel them.
Hyuga-sensei deeply bows to the principal.
Haruka Nanami: Teacher….
Shining Saotome: I understand…. I'll give you two a special exemption to the rule. BUT! Just to warn you!
This is a very, VERY special measure because of the circumstances!
Mr. Syo, you have what is like a bomb in your heart! If you debut the way you are now, you are in grave danger!
I have a suggestion. How about undergoing surgery?
Syo Kurusu: Surgery…?
Shining Saotome: I have an acquaintance who is a highly skilled doctor. He may be able to help you!
Syo Kurusu: Help me…? You mean cure me?!
Shining Saotome: There's a chance! He's in the U.S.A. right now, but want to try going there?
Syo-kun and I exchange glances and smile.
Syo Kurusu: I'll go! If there's even a sliver of a chance that I'll be cured, I'll bet my life on it!
Shining Saotome: Then I'll change the conditions! If you get cured on top of passing your graduation audition, I will allow you two to be together!
Syo-kun then gets on the principal's personal jet and flies to the States for a checkup.
A day passes.
I get a text message from Syo-kun.
"Yo! Is it morning over there? I arrived to the hospital, and I'm about to get my checkup."
"I'll be checked into the hospital for examinations, so I'll be away for some time."
"But I'll practice as much as I can over here… I'll search for a place to sing, like the rooftop or the lawn."
"Also, I'll listen to the instrumentals you made me when I have time, so don't worry."
"I can't send that many messages, but just know that I'll be okay. Wait for me to come back."
Haruka Nanami: Syo-kun….
SELECT THE PHRASE!
1) うん。待ってる。Yes, I'll be waiting. (+15 Love +0 Music)
I reply and immediately get an answer.
"Thanks, partner. I love you."
Oh….
I was happy, but I was so embarrassed that I couldn't reply any further.
2) 頑張ってね。Do your best. (+0 Love +10 Music)
"I'll do my best to complete the song."
I send the message.
"Oh! Let's do our best!"
He replies quickly.
3) 無理しないで。Don't overdo it. (+5 Love +0 Music)
"Prioritize your health first, okay?"
I send the message.
"I know, I know. Don't worry."
He replies quickly.
He's going to stay at the hospital to get examined, so he won't be able to come back soon.
I'll be lonely without him here, but I have to stay strong because he's doing his best.
I should just wait for him patiently and believe he'll be okay. I'll welcome back Syo-kun with a warm smile when he comes back.
I continue making our song.

Ryuya Hyuga: How's your song going? I see…. If you're stuck, try to play it with an instrument.
Listening to how it sounds live is good, and you might get a hint. Hm? This is your music sheet…?
Let's use this song for today's lesson. Try to play this and this part for now.
It's your song. You may think that it's obvious that you can play it, but if you mess up even just a little, I'll deduct points without mercy. Time to focus!
Alright, let's start!
S RANK
Syo Kurusu: Whoa! I gotta up my game. I want to keep doing my best with you. I won't stop now!
Syo-kun calls me after I send the sound file that I recorded for the performance exam through my computer. I'm glad he sounds energetic.
I'll do my best so I won't be a burden on Syo-kun.
