Thursday, May 9th
Ah, a regular normal day like everyday here at good old Kokogakkou High School. Nothing is ever out of the ordinary here because this is a regular place with regular people.

Oh shit something's out of the ordinary. Uehara Chie, a student in my class. She's known for being drop dead gorgeous in a mature way, as opposed to Takamaki and Hirabayashi who are pretty in a girly way. She's also incredibly intelligent and charismatic in a calming sort of way. Her psychic power is Clairsentience, which gives her a very strong intuition. It sounds dumb, but it seems to have come in handy for her.

For some reason, she was coming right for me. "Miyazaki," she said in an even-toned yet authoritative sort of way. She's kind of scary.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kxkn3FTDw
"Uhhh, yeah?" I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea what she's doing here.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibTTgwHrih
Uehara stopped at an appropriate distance away, "I want to thank you."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeQUdhZx2G
This is confusing, "Uh, what for?" I don't think I've ever talked to her one on one until now.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vyUkUPzkv
"Azumi told me of your actions yesterday and as her friend I am glad for your help with her."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLBz2tftGC
She must mean the whole comforting thing. I scratched the back of my neck awkwardl-- I mean as cool as ever, "Oh yeah, it was no problem. I had nothing else to do, anyway."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCrYZxmkgp
Uehara bowed a small bit, "Either way, I thank you."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4irSN3JpZY
I bowed back heroically, "No thanks needed. Just doing my duty."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAI1Cqx7gs
Uehara straightened and had a mildly confused look on her face, "Uh… huh. Anyway, I will see you later, I suppose. Make sure to arrive to class on time."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2mRjXlwPu
Because of that, I will not arrive to class on time, "Sure, see ya."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQOC5Niog5
Uehara walked off, clearly not believing my words. I will simply sit around out here in the school yard and wait for Sakamoto to arrive as he is sure to be late today as always. I will lean against this wall because I am the coolest.

Okay, this is kind of boring. I could easily just go up to class, Satoru is there, after all. After he learned of everyone's psychic powers, we have been pretty tight. Before, we haven't talked much. We were in the same homeroom last year as well and, well, honestly? That's the only reason I know his name. I mostly know people only by their power. Like the girl with the large nose? She's clairolfactance, psychic smelling. She's very proud of her nose so good on her.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufNZeMcKsZ
I start whistling, gotta fill up the time somehow. Never realized how late late actually was until I had to wait. Haha late and wait rhyme. Late wait, late wait. This is… the late wait. Damn, I'm a good lyricist. Maybe I should start a band. I could easily convince Sakamoto and Satoru to join. I could have Emiko on the keyboard, she has been taking piano lessons, after all. She would gladly join after I've convinced Sakamoto. Maybe Iwasaki would join, since we're neighbors and all. Uehara seems to really like Iwasaki so she could join, too. She looks the type to be a good singer. She's also pretty rich so she could be our producers. Is she a singer? I feel like that's a thing. Not that I'm going to dig through her mind or anything, her psychic power makes it kind of scary…

A shiver went down my spine. I scanned the courtyard and, "Hey! There you are Sakamoto!" I called and he paused as I went up to him.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoDJsAxBCu
Sakamoto raised a brow, "What are you doing?" He continued walking when I caught up to him.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uFUAq5ciN
I shuffled beside him, "Oh, Uehara told me to make sure to not be late to class today so I'm doing the exact opposite, as I do."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7osQ3QlML
Sakamoto shook his head, "You seem proud. Why was Uehara even talking to you, anyway?"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XaHKVG3BK
"Hm? Oh, yeah I did a nice thing and she gave me a little kiss," I bragged.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnZSOZ0PI4
"No she didn't," Sakamoto said matter-of-factly.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrUdsMKR8t
"Yeah she did. Gave me a little kiss on the cheek like this," I leaned on my tip-toes to reach Sakamoto's cheek, who quickly leaned back, pushing me off.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T8MpRUi2c
"You're gross, Miyazaki."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsGaAeXEQ3
I let out a laugh, "Anyway, I while I was waiting, I was thinking we start a band."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQV8sUMETK
Sakamoto raised an eyebrow, "Why?"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExBvZWw3BM
"Because music is awesome. That's literally the only reason to do anything," I said with only a small fraction of theatrics.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZyS5rzbgg
"Uh-huh."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnxpE4EsVu
Sakamoto looked distracted, which was perfect because that means I get to talk more, "So, like it'd obviously be me, you, and Satoru. If I can get Emi on keyboard, you can be drums and--"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodNnyqTiVL
"To your left, Miyazaki," Sakamoto interrupted.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeuNcoghDs
I stepped aside, not bothering to look up. It's not uncommon for him to guide me so I'm still allowed to not pay attention to anything around me, "and maybe Satoru could learn the guitar? Or maybe--" Oof.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkcoPesA4o
A small chuckle escaped Sakamoto as the guy he lead me to bump into apologized and continued to class. I turned around to apologize as well but he was too far away from me for it to be socially acceptable to speak to him. I turned to Sakamoto, "Dude, what the hell, I trusted you!"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPonGeUo4R
"Oh, I know," Sakamoto said, still amused, "The opportunity was there, so I took it. Look, the ever 'epic' you is all red."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnFHzCVYbi
My face was definitely not red, "Dammit dude I should have never told you that some guys were cute."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBwaWivX02
Sakamoto exhaled in amusement, "No you shouldn't have."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI4NyWcIBy
"You're an asshole."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimVy889D3S
"That's why you love me."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVfafKOAMJ
I knew I should have gone to class on time like Uehara told me. Oh my God I should have actually listened to her, she's very intuitive! Oh well, it's class time.

Oh nice, it's lunch time. Emi packed me some toast! Gonna eat some toast and it'll be great! Except not because Takamaki Yui herself walked to the front of the class and shouted, "Fellow classmates, I have an announcement to make!"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY5EMMqP1b
The class raised their heads and turned toward Takamaki obediently. Damn, she really has this entire class whipped. She continued, "I know midterms is stressing everyone out right now, so I suggest we all have a study session at my house on Sunday! Not all of you will want to come, but if you're interested tell me and I'll give you my address and make preparations for you ahead of time. Thank you!"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLxS90tCLd
It looks like plenty of people want Takamaki's help. She was already surrounded. Speaking of Takamaki, Satoru was awkwardly standing in the back. I didn't have to read his mind to know what he wanted to do. I stood up from my seat and went over to him, "Go to her."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8loKTiL6a
Satoru trembled, "What? No, she's crowded I couldn't possibly bother her right now." He stared pointedly at his feet and twiddled my thumbs.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNIxBdwWZO
I rolled my eyes, "Dude she literally asked to be bothered by everybody. You have such a small presence she probably won't even notice a bother from you."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPe6qYVHzk2
"Miyazaki, that's really dumb and makes no sense." Damn. He can't talk to a girl he likes yet he can talk major shit on me.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGDkilpaqf
"Okay well if you're going to pull that, then," I grabbed him by the wrist and dragged him in the direction of Takamaki, "I'm gonna take you to your girlfriend."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjwWxoKTI8
Satoru struggled against my grip but I'm just too ripped. "Heyyy Takamaki!" I greeted.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzuHvuxEws
"Oh, hello Miyazaki! Do you want to join the study session at my house?" Takamaki asked with a smile, her pigtails bouncing. I've always found pigtails to look childish and dumb but they actually work for Takamaki. They made her look more friendly than stupid.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7jnNXhr3X
"Yes I'd be very glad to," I said pleasantly because I am very pleasant and always have been.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx2B45YDHL
"Great! Would you mind if we exchanged numbers, so it will be easier to organize something like this in the future?" Tamaki asked politely. She kinda sounded like she was advertising.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvozq4nxTwQ
"Oh yeah, sure," I whipped out my phone, "Oh yeah and he's interested, too. You should swap numbers with him as well," I said, pointing at Satoru.
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNpADnfNwI
"Oh, Of course!" Takamaki smiled and we exchanged personal information. Man I should be awarded World's Best Wingman. "Alright, everything should be in order. I'll see you both Sunday!"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYew9LkIfOE
"Yeah, see you," I gave her a little cool guy wave as I went back to eat my toast. "This is the part where you say, 'Thank you, Miyazaki. I really owe you one, Miyazaki. I owe you my entire life, Miyazaki!'"
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQgVBLcxsQ
Satoru shook his head, "You didn't help me that much! But…" he stared at his phone, presumably at Takamaki's number in said phone, "I guess you did help a little. Thank you."
480Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTR88Sbfds
"You're very welcome. Now let's eat some lunch, I'm hungry as hell."

I wonder what Emi will think of my totally awesome 100% epic idea of a band. She'd so join, especially after I tell her Sakamoto is in it.
