“Correct~”

She removed her hands from over my eyes and plopped herself down beside me on the couch.

“It’s been a while.”Findd new stories at novelhall.com

“Two weeks, you jerk. Making a busy celebrity like me wait for you to show up, aren’t you a bit too full of yourself?”

“Technically it’s only been six days.”

“Hmph! Only six days, he says. You’re acting as if it’s not the greatest sin in the world. But anyway, I didn’t see you in the flesh so that visit didn’t count.”

“Did you delete that picture like I asked?”

“Delete it? No way. I’m using it as the wallpaper on my phone.” She took out her phone and turned it toward me to prove her words.

“Are you crazy! What will happen if someone sees that?”

“Well, that’s too bad for you. I can’t see my boyfriend often despite freeing up my schedule and making so much time to do so.”

“You make it sound like you seriously consider me your boyfriend. It’s been bugging me for a while, but after what your last boyfriend did to you, why would you be so open to getting another boyfriend so quickly? Even if you have ulterior purposes in doing so, shouldn’t you be more hesitant to?”

“Because there’s a big difference between the two of you. You’re not a big shot celebrity the way my ex was. You’re completely unknown, the exact opposite of him, someone who doesn’t want to draw any attention at all. As I’m sure you know, my ex was by no means a unique case or anything. Among celebrities, there are many that turn out like him. The fame gets to our heads, with our inflated egos we begin to think we’re above everyone else. I can’t say I’m much different. Since I view you as his exact opposite, I can’t see you ever doing the same thing he did. That’s why I’m not hesitant to make you my boyfriend.”

“Still, to seriously be treating me as your boyfriend, going so far as to get me chocolates for Valentine’s Day and waiting for me here all day, don’t you think it’s strange? Our relationship was formed on the foundation of you keeping me in check and me going along with it to avoid trouble.”

“Well, the thing is, I only realized this after the fact, but being a completely normal guy's girlfriend has a super big plus that made me reconsider things.”

“Huh? A big plus?” I was of course perplexed when I heard that.

“Well, when both parties in a relationship are celebrities, because of conflicting busy schedules, there’s basically never a chance to spend time together or meet. Even if one of us decides to take some extended time off from work, the other might not want to do the same due to prior commitments we’ve made to our fans. With a completely normal guy, I can see him much easier. It’s not nearly as complicated. I don’t need to make plans a year in advance, just a few days is enough. Before, I might have been able to see my boyfriend in person a handful of times in a year. But with you, it’s much simpler.”

“Great, then the planetarium downtown is the perfect public place for you to visit. It’s not nearly as busy as the movie theatre and in a place as dark as the planetarium, you can enjoy the show without having to hide your face the entire time. You won’t need to constantly be on edge of being spotted without your disguise covering your face. You can be another normal person and enjoy the show there.”

“Oh, when you put it that way it doesn’t sound like a bad idea. That being the case... there’s just one thing that doesn’t add up in your story.”

“What?”

“The part about a peer of yours giving you that ticket. Such a thing implies you have someone close enough who’d give you that ticket. That’s something I can’t see.”

Why’d she suddenly have to be sharp and catch onto the biggest flaw in my story?

“Okay, you got me. It was a ticket I purchased for myself, but because of some things that came up, I can’t go. Do you want the ticket, or not?”

“Well, if it was for yourself I could believe it. The planetarium seems like somewhere you’d go. It’s also inside a museum after all. Why not give it to one of your other girlfriends though?”

“They’re also busy.”

“I see. What if I’m also busy? I’m a celebrity, you know. I also have lectures to attend.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll just give the ticket to some random person I pass by on the street. But, if you were going to use lectures as the reason for why you can’t make it, that Friday is during reading week.”

“Reading week? What’s that?”

“It’s basically spring break, this university just doesn’t call it that for whatever reason. There aren’t any lectures or exams scheduled, so I’m sure you should be free if you didn’t even know about reading week. It’s not surprising you aren’t aware of it though, it is your first year and you only just enrolled this semester.”

“Oh! I see. I should be free if I don’t have any lectures. Alright, I’ll go then.”

“Really? Great. I didn’t bring the ticket with me today though. Will you be coming here tomorrow as well?”

“If you are, I will.”

“Then I’ll bring it with me tomorrow.”

“Sure.”
