Supporting High School Student Makes Plan

“Good work everyone! That’s it for today! I got some nice photos this time……”

“Thank you for your hard work～!”

“Thank you. By the way, am I to keep today’s clothes? Or should I give them to the original model that was scheduled for today?”

“Hmm…..the size is correct right?”

“Yes……I don’t feel any discomfort at all.”

“Then keep it with you. It’s Kousei-kun who came to the shoot after. Plus, if you wear it, you will help us advertise it too!”

Honestly, I have no plan to wear it but let’s not say that out loud. Besides, even if I wear it, I don’t think that they can expect any advertising effect unless I trimmed my hair though……..

Ah, still. Since my legs are already shaved, it might be a good chance to wear shorts huh. For the time being, let’s go home with it.

“Well, Seiya-kun, let’s go home! I have something that I wanted to talk to you about too!”

“Ah, right. Thank you for your work today everyone!”

After saying goodbye to everyone, I left the studio. Since it is summer, it is still bright outside.

Perhaps it will be hot tonight, even though the sun is about to set, it is still quite hot. Wearing this instead of changing back to my uniform may have been the right choice.

“Ughh……it’s so hot now since the air conditioner in the studio was on full-blown…….it would be nice if they could set the temp a little bit higher……Well, I will just crank up mine at home though!”

“They probably didn’t want the model to get all sweaty on the magazine cover right. It’s just right to sweat a little now.”

“I kno~~w……..but look at my back! I’m sweating so much even though we’ve just left the studio! I’m mel~ting……..”

“Don’t make up strange slang now.”

Certainly, I’m sweating a lot even though I just started walking. This might be the only drawback of using an AC huh. Well, I still prefer using it though.

Although I am fine myself, people who are sensitive to temperature change may have a headache because of this. It seems that there are a lot of people who can get headaches when the pressure or temperature suddenly changes after all.

“More importantly, didn’t you say that you have something you want to talk about?”

“Ah, that’s right! It was so hot I forgot about it! Well, you see, do you have any plans next Saturday?”

Saturday huh…….I tried recalling it for a moment but as far as I can remember, I didn’t make any plans at all.

To be honest, ever since I entered high school, the study session was the first event I planned in advance. No, if I remember it correctly, I was pretty busy during golden week. Running errands with my sister that is.

“No, I don’t think so. Actually, I have no plan on Saturday for this entire year!”

“I don’t know what you are trying to boast but you are free this next Saturday right?”

“Yeah. From morning till evening…….if anything, I’m even free on Sunday.”

“S, Spending the night!? …….not that huh…….calm down me….. Alright, how about we visit the aquarium this Saturday?”

For some reason, there were all kinds of expressions on Suzuka’s face but……an aquarium huh.

“Alright. Do you know the ticket price? I just spent a lot on my card so I have to withdraw some cash first.”

“Ah! Don’t worry! I already have the tickets!”

“Nn? Is that so? Shouldn’t I pay at least half for that?”

“Hmm, I won the tickets from a gacha so it’s okay! So……you see, the tickets were meant for a couple, it’s the kind of course that will treat you like that, are you okay with it……?”

Yup, can’t say that I have a clue what that entails. Still, judging from how she says it, I should act in the way that others will treat us as a couple huh.

That’s not really a problem but won’t that cause trouble for Suzuka if she is seen by the people from her school?

“When we walked home together last time, you told me that there’s a person you like but he never noticed your advance right? If someone from your school saw me together with you, won’t they tell that person…..?”

“A, Ahaha…..so you remembered……”

“Well, yeah. I was a little worried about that guy you know. He didn’t even react when he got approached by such a beautiful girl after all.”

“Be, Beautif……….!? What if, it’s just a what-if okay? If I try flirting with Seiya-kun, would your heart race?”

“Eh? Normally anyone would right…..”

“S, So you do……..”

That was the reason I was surprised when she told me that that guy didn’t react in the first place. Besides, if you get to know her it might be obvious but she actually has a good personality and she is pretty smart. Also, her cooking is……I have no clue. She probably is not on Eihashi-san level but I’m pretty sure that she won’t lose to any normal girls.

“Th, then since I was pretty close to you in today’s shooting……did you get excited?”

“It was for work right? I wouldn’t get excited by that.”

“R, Right……”

It would be rude to her if I have an impure feeling when she snuggled close to me for work.

Certainly, when I had my first shoot with Suzuka last year, she was so cute and smelled really nice so I was pretty excited.

However, Suzuka’s expression at that time was very serious so I was really embarrassed to have such an impure feeling.

From then on, I switch my mindset whenever I’m working. In a sense, it was because of Suzuka that I am the way I am now.

“That being said, I got the feeling that we only contact each other at work though. Am I wrong? Until now, even after we exchanged contacts, we didn’t even send messages to each other right?”

“Th, That’s……I don’t want to waste the ticket and since it’s a couple ticket I can’t go by myself. If I randomly invite someone from school, it might start a rumor too……….and I don’t know if a message is something that you can send so casually…….”

I didn’t know since I rarely send messages myself but is that a thing? I thought that we exchanged contact to be able to reach each other easier though.

“Well, you can send me messages even if you don’t have a business with me you know. Even I can properly reply a message after all. Rather, wouldn’t it start a rumor if you are seen with me?”

“I, It’s fine I tell you!”

Suzuka is saying that it’s okay but I’m still worried. At least I will set my hair and go as Kousei huh…….

There shouldn’t be any bad rumors if she is seen with Kousei and it will be easier to deny them as well. Even If we say that we are just colleagues or that we met each other by chance or just saying the truth that she just had an extra ticket, it would be believable.

The clothing concept for today’s shooting is a date outfit so wearing this might be good too.
