After the brief introduction, Miyazaki-sensei told us to pair in two for our stretching. Obviously, Arima and I were the ones who paired up with each other. Arima was the only person with whom I could say I’m acquainted. Now thinking about it, the fact that he was the only guy I knew is kind of depressing.
Most of the people I got acquainted with are girls. If I include the two male senpais whom I met yesterday at the clubroom... I’ll just include it. I don’t think they’re bad people.
With pairings done, Miyazaki-sensei said that we will be doing 10 km on the track and field oval, but as for the girls, they will only do 5 km. Color me surprised, what Arima said came true.
Currently, I’m standing while Arima was sitting while trying to reach his feet with his arms stretch out, I was at his back assisting him.
“Wouldn’t you look at that, what you said came true, we’ll be running later.”, I said, to annoy Arima.
“What can I say. That’s pretty standard. I just hope after the run we can have some free time to play around.”, Arima said.
“Well, I guess that’s plausible.”, I said.
“In 10km? Are you serious?”, Arima said in bewilderment.
“What? You can finish it in an hour.”, I responded.
After I said that, Arima started contemplating, “Hm. If I continued running at a certain pace then maybe, I can do it.”
“See. You’re fit. You can do it.”, I said.
Then Arima and I switched places. I’m now the one doing the stretching, and Arima was the one who was assisting me at my back.
“Have you done a marathon?”, Arima asked.
“Absolutely. Well, my dad forced me to join.”, I replied tiredly.
“When was the last time you joined?”
“Hm, maybe 2 months ago? If I remember correctly, it was a 25 km run.”
“It’s pretty recent, huh?”
“Hey, want to race?”
“Race?”, I asked.
“Yeah, let’s get competitive.”
“That sounds dumb.”, I said.
I finished my stretching, so I stood up, then I saw some of my female classmates are glancing towards us. It made me confused. Why are they so focused on me? It’s been like that ever since I got back earlier in the classroom. Their eyes are so intense that I feel like they’re about to eat me alive.
“It’s boring if we just run.”, Arima said in an aggravating tone.
“Then, how about we just finish it early? I’m sure that we have nothing to do after the run.”, I suggested.
“Hm, maybe we could even do whatever we want after that.”, Arima said.
“Yeah, let’s go with that.”, Arima added.
With our agreement, the intensity of the gazes towards our direction got strong. Once, Arima and I got into a position where our backs were against each other, and we will do the buddy back stretching. Most of our female classmates and some males are staring at us.
Because of that, I find it awkward to do it.
With our backs against each other, I said, “They’re looking at us.”
“Don’t include me, they’re only looking at you.”, Arima retorted.
“What do they want now?”, I said.
“No clue.”, Arima replied.
I inwardly sighed and chose to ignore them.
Doing our buddy back stretching, while we’re doing that. Whenever it’s my turn to be lifted, I could feel an icy breeze through my abdominal muscle, to which I shivered. I swear someday someone will just pat me on my shoulders and stab me with a knife.
As for Naoki and Yokota, I didn’t see them since we picked a place somewhere near the gym doors, and they’re pretty far from us.
After doing our stretching, Miyazaki-sensei ordered us to line up on the track and field oval.
“I’m sure that some of you guys are not good with running so you can have a rest when you can’t really take it anymore, but you’re still obligated to finish it, okay?”, Miyazaki-sensei said.
“Yes.”, all of us answered.
“We will only be doing running today, so if some of you finished it early, then you can do whatever you want. But, if you guys wanted to some ballgames, I’m afraid I can’t allow it, right now. And, don’t wander around and get into an accident.”, Miyazaki-sensei added.
“Yes.”, all of us answered.
“Okay then, you guys may start.”
We all started running.
Arima and I started jogging at a much higher pace than all of our classmates, which got an irritating grumble from our fellow male students. They thought that we’re trying to show off, but neither did they know that we’re doing this so that we could finish early and rest.
“Want to go at a higher pace, Arima?”, I asked.
“Are you fucking shitting me? This is not enough for you?”, Arima complained.
“What? You said you agreed to finish early so that we can have more time.”, I retorted.
“I’ll try.”, Arima grunted.
Then we started increasing our pace.
I can’t go faster than this, or else the wind would blow my hair from jogging. Even though we’re jogging at a faster pace, it’s not fast enough for my hair to do that. We’re all jogging instead of running because if we ran there’s a possibility that it will exhaust us before we could even get to half of it.
As running requires more effort than jogging, where jogging is more light and efficient when you want to save energy.
Almost 40 minutes have passed.
Arima and I are still continuing as for our other classmates. They were resting on the grassy hill. Then some of our female classmates are resiting there too since they completed it. As for the other boys, they’re just taking a break. Only a few of us haven’t taken a break yet like Arima and me, Nagasawa was part of it too but his appearance was haggard while gasping for air.
He was so adamant about trying to get into our pace that he even started running whenever he fell behind; he tried doing that many times. And as a result, he was now staying at the back end of runners. Arima and I maintained our higher pace ever since we started, but I could see Arima sweats pouring down his face and the fatigue is about to get him, too.
“Hey, you want me to slow it down?”, I asked.

“No shit sherlock. How come you’re still in good shape? We’ve been jogging non-stop, while others are taking a break. You are sweating but not that much.”, Arima retorted.
“Uh, I told you. I did marathoning with my dad.”, I answered.
“Ah, yeah. You’re trained. Yeah, slow it down a little. I can still keep up. We’re about to finish it anyway.”, Arima said.
“Okay.”, I responded.
Slowing down our pace a little after passing by the crowded grassy hill on the side. I saw Yokota and Naoki resting together. They’re on the pack earlier and our pace was faster than them, that’s why I didn’t see them earlier; I guess they finished it. We’re all wearing the same gym clothes, however, Naoki’s clothes are bringing more of her charms same with Yokota.
A while later, Arima and I were the first ones who finished it. Then we started walking to the crowded area where Naoki and Yokota were staying.
Arima was panting, so I asked, “Hey, you okay? We’re done.”
“Huft, huft. You’re really something, not even a single hint of fatigue in your appearance, only sweats.”, Arima responded.
“Nah, I feel exhausted too.”, I said.
“Don’t give me that crap. You clearly still have the energy to go for a lap.”, Arima retorted.
“Fine, fine.”, I said.
Arima was sweating profusely. I’m the same, but maybe not on the same level as Arima’s sweat. While walking, Arima was wiping out the sweats on his face with a towel. I, on the other hand, forgot to bring one.
I think I left it in the gym locker. How unlucky. For that reason, I’ve got no choice but to wipe the sweats with my shirt. I took the hem of my shirt and started wiping the sweats in my face while walking towards the pack of people resting. After I did that, I surge of coldness enveloped my entire body, to which I shuddered gravely. I immediately stopped wiping.
After releasing the hem of my shirt, I saw some of my classmates who were taking a break or completed the course were looking at me. Some girls are blushing effusively, some aren’t. However, something caught my eyes, Ide-san who’s Arima’s childhood friend was glaring at the person who’s walking beside me again.
What’s her problem?
If she’s angry at Arima, why not confront him?
She’s the one who wanted Arima to leave her alone, but the way she looks at him tells a different story. She keeps glaring at him. While this guy was ignoring her. She got what she wanted.
Does she want to see Arima suffer more? Does her hatred against him be that huge?
I don’t get her.
Is she a tsundere?
Then we finally reached and went to the top of the grassy hill where Yokota and Naoki were currently sitting.
“Yo.”, I greeted the two.
“Hello, Ikeda-san and Yokota-san.”, Arima greeted.
“Hi~ Tatsu~ Hello too, Arima. No need for formality.”, Naoki greeted back.
“Hello, you two. Yeah, no need for that.”, Yokota greeted back.
“Oh, hello, Ikeda and Yokota.”, Arima repeated.
After that, Arima lay his entire body on the grass near Yokota, while wearing an exhausted expression on his face. “Haaaaa... This feels nice. I learned something new, never ever go at the same pace as this monster.”, Arima said.
Following that, I sat beside Naoki, “You said you wanted to finish early.”
“Not in that way!”, Arima exclaimed.
“I was expecting for us to take a break, but you didn’t stop.”, Arima added.
“You should’ve told me then.”, I answered.
“Never! My competitive drive won’t let me, besides I took it as a new challenge, anyway. I’ll just go take quick a nap, wake me up when it’s all done.”, Arima said.
He then closes his eyes.
“Aye.”, I responded.
“That’s a splendid run, Okita and Arima.”, Miyazaki-sensei said out of nowhere.
Miyazaki-sensei surprised Yokota, Naoki, and me because he just came out of nowhere, and he’s at our back. Even Arima, who was about to sleep, got shook because of him. Miyazaki-sensei then touched my shoulders. But something’s weird on his touch. I’m getting goosebumps from it. It doesn’t feel right.
“Ah, Miyazaki-sensei. Thank you.”, I answered.
Arima did the same, “Y-yeah, thank you, Sensei.”
He was still touching my shoulder; I feel uncomfortable.
“Are you guys in a club?”, Miyazaki-sensei asked.
“I’m at the basketball club while Okita is not at any clubs, yet.”, Arima replied.
“Oh, you want to join the Track and Field club? I’m the advisor. You’ve got some stamina and speed on you.”, Miyazaki-sensei said to me.
“Sorry, I’m not interested in the sports club, Sensei.”, I politely rejected.
“Ow, that sucks. But, if you’re interested just call me.”, Miyazaki-sensei said with a smile.
“I will, thank you.”, I responded.
And can you please remove your hands from my shoulder? I feel very uncomfortable.
There's something about Miyazaki-sensei that I don't feel good about. But, I can't pinpoint what that is.
Taking a close look, I would say Miyazaki-sensei was about the same age as Arita-sensei, and his face is pretty too plus he's fit. I bet he's popular with girls. He's neat and a well-respected teacher from what I've seen. However, there's something about him that gives me goosebumps.
I don't know what that is.
“Okay then. See ya.”
After Miyazaki-sensei bid farewell, he left.
