(A/N Notes: Tango!... Yeah!...)
A week had passed, and Yuriko's classroom progress was going smoothly... Way too smoothly (A/N Notes: Pun pun puuuunn)
"... And they lived happily ever after. The end!"
"... Phew... God job, ohime-sama"
"T, thank you, Yuriko-sama"
They had just finished a perfect rehearsal, which made everyone even more motivated. And just to say, Yuriko's costume was looking exactly to what Takeru suggested it to look like
"Okay, everyone! We're done for today! Have a good rest, because we still need to make some little improvements to the play! Especially you! Yamamoto-kun! Your acing is still shitty even after all this time!"
At Takeru's classroom
"Here's your cappuccino and apple pie"
"Oh my! Thank you"
Takeru had just served one of the girls of his class that was acting as a customer so that they could see how the boys would fare, and so far they were all doing well for the most part... But not the virgins, as they either kept dropping the orders or kept stuttering when they tried to take an order from a girl... And even a few girls decided to take the role of butlers
"... *Left to take the order from another table*"
"... You know... Tanaka-kun is surprisingly reliable"
"Yeah... And he looks quite good in that butler costume... But he could do something about his face"
"Yeah..."
< <... Now it makes a little more sense how he managed to become Yuriko-sama's boyfriend> >
After school, at the hallways
"You did a great job today on your acting!"
"Yeah, I felt really emotional while watching the play"
"Fufu, thank you. I worked really hard to not put Yuriko-sama to shame with an amateur play"
"As expected of you!"
The girl who was doing the princess role was going back home with her friends, and they were about to walk downstairs when one of her feet slipped
"Uwaaaaaaahhhh!!!"
" "!?" "
Her friends weren't fast enough to catch her, and she rolled down the stairs, spraining her ankle. When she stopped rolling down, she held her leg while feeling an agonizing pain (A/N Notes: Do you call this a plot armor or a plot hole?)
"Iiiiiitthhh arrrghhhh... Iiiiiitthhh arrgghhhh... Iiiiiitthhh... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Meanwhile
"Good afternoon, Takeru"
"Hm. Good afternoon, Yuriko"
The two greeted each other at the shoe lockers and went home together like usual
"Takeru could I ask you for some help?"
"What is it, this time?"
"Can you help me with my dancing practice?"
"... Well... I can help you... But the only thing I can dance probably won't be what you need help with"
"Don't worry, I'm sure it'll help me"
"Well... If you say so..."
When the two returned to their apartment building, instead of going to their own apartments, they instead went to the basketball field at the back of the building, they put their bags on the bench near the field, and Takeru picked his phone to put music so that they could dance with the rhythm
"So what music do I need to put?"
"You can put whatever you like"
"Okay"
And he put on his playlist that had the songs more suited for dancing...
"Yuriko..." *Offering her his hand*
"Thank you" *Accepts his hands*
They both prepared themselves for dancing, and when the music started playing...
"Hm?"
And when Yuriko heard the way the instruments were being played, she was able to guess the music style. But it was already too late, as when the vocals started Takeru began to lead her on the tango (A/N Notes: This is definitely not the Author secretly flexing that he got Eula in the 50/50)
(YT: Hotel California Spanish mix)
Yuriko skillfully kept with him as they both danced the tango, and they danced to three pieces of music when they stopped after the third Takeru asked
"Do you want another dance?"
"... This wasn't what I was thinking when you said you could dance!!!..."
She couldn't help but make that retort
"But I do accept another dance"
And they kept dancing the Tango with the rest of his playlist, which had more or less 15 minutes of music in total
The next day
Yuriko had finished her morning tasks at the student council room and just entered her classroom that was already filled by her classmates, and they were making a fuss
"Hm? Did something happen?"
"Ah! Yuriko-sama! Terrible news, the princess sprained her ankle!"
"! This is bad! Is she okay?"
"Aside from the sprained ankle, she's doing fine. But now the problem is that we don't anyone else to for the princess role!"
"That is certainly worrying... Can't we pick someone else?"
"That's the problem, because of how everything has progressed, everyone who could cover for her has already managed to get into their roles, and if we changed them from their roles it would only get worse!"
"Hmmm... I see, them... I will take the role of the princess because I remember most of her lines"
"!?" (x29)
"B, but you're our prince!"
"What is a prince without his princess, ojou-sama?"
Yuriko said so to the girl who was directing the play as she raised the girl's face by gently holding the girl's chin
"Fuuuuaaaahhhh... !? W, well... If you say so, then I guess I don't another choice... But what about the prince?"
And the boys at sensing their chance of being the prince of the play, mostly because they were convincing themselves that they might get a kiss from her due to the play, even though there wasn't any kiss in the play. And the first one to raise his hand was Daichi
"I will become the pri-"
You still suck at acting, so no"
The director girl quickly shot him down, then Yamada was the second one to raise his hand
"I say that only I-"
He was hit on the back of his head by another thick book from one of the girls and fell flat down onto the floor. Then the third one to raise his hand was... Mitsuto
"I believe, only I am worthy enough to be by Nanami-san side during the play"
"..."
Yuriko didn't want him to be the prince, but the problem was, that he showed to be a perfect actor, and since this was an emergency...
"Well... I suppose we can make you the prince"
Due to the lack of better options, he was chosen to be the prince
"I will be in your care, Nanami-san"
"... Yes... I will also be in your care..."
Yuriko really didn't want to have him as the prince, but all she could do for now was steel her resolve... And maybe ask Takeru to pamper her a lot later
(A/N Notes: It'll be glorious)
