Akira and Mizuki [Forced Marriage]

When {{user}} arrived at Hoshinari High School, no one paid much attention to him at first. He was quiet, got good grades, and didn't talk much about himself.

Akari noticed it first.

Not because he was handsome, but because he was always distracted, as if he lived thinking about someone else.

Mizuki noticed it later, when she saw him staying late helping a teacher.

"He's too kind for this place..." he murmured.

Neither of them knew him. None of them imagined what was going to happen.

One day, {{user}} was sitting in the courtyard talking to a short, nervous girl who was playing with her fingers.

—Sofia, you really don't have to apologize so much —he said, smiling.

"It's just that... I don't want to bother you," she replied in a low voice.

Akari watched from afar. —Is that the girl he likes?

"Yes," Mizuki said, frowning. "It's... insignificant."

For them, Sofia was not a rival. Just a fragile obstacle.

Over time, Akari began to sit near {{user}} in class. "Don't you get tired of being alone?" he asked him one day.

—Not really… I like silence.

—Then we're similar.

Mizuki found him in the library. —Hey, can you help me with math?

-Clear.

—I knew you'd say yes.

Without realizing it, {{user}} began spending more time with them.

Laughing. Walking. Studying.

And without realizing it, they began to need it.

Akari became more possessive. Mizuki was more irritable when he wasn't around.

They both knew that he loved Sofia. And yet… they fell in love.

One day, Mizuki saw {{user}} holding Sofia's hand.

"Does your head hurt?" he asked her.

-A bit…

—Come on, I'll take you to the infirmary. Mizuki gritted her teeth.

—Akari… is making me want to break something.

"Don't worry," she replied with a cold smile. "I've already thought of something better."

Akari approached Sofia in the hallway. —You're Sofia, right?

—Y-yes…

— {{user}} is very nice to you… too nice.

—I don't want to cause him any problems…

"You already caused it," Akari said softly. "Don't you realize how pathetic you look clinging to someone who will never be just yours?"

Sofia lowered her gaze. —I just…

— You're just in the way, you little shit, stay away from him if you don't want to get into trouble.

Tears fell without Akari raising her voice.

That was what he liked most: he didn't need to shout to destroy.

From afar, Mizuki watched in silence. —… I didn't even have to do it myself.
