[I have something to tell you.]

The director, the man who had invited Aoi, smiled when he saw the situation.

“Wow, this is great~”

At first I thought it was a lucky find. While the sponsor chose the cast based on popularity, I wanted an actor who would be able to balance with Sakura Hiiyo, who is one step ahead of the others, and who would be able to charge a low fee.

In fact, Aoi is a perfect match for Sakura Hiiyo without any problem.

HE was, but–

“Maybe I’ve found a treasure trove?”

His gaze fell on Misaki Aoi.

♦♦♦

[I have something to tell you.]

I gulp.

Yuzuriha Narumi, who had done filming ahead of the others and was watching the final shooting, was stunned.

(What is this…..?)

The empty space in front.

The two of them were in a space that had been opened up as if it were their time together.

“This is amazing.”

Next to her, Ikuta Yuuta began to murmur.

I know the feeling.

I know, but–

(Is the acting industry really full of such monsters?)

I still didn’t understand Misaki Aoi as a person.

It makes me think so.

♦♦♦

(*Hiiyo’s point of view)

[I have something to tell you.]

I feel like I’m going to burst into dry laughter right now.

Just one word. Even though the shooting has only just started, an atmosphere of delegitimization has begun to hang in the air.

The one who is creating such an atmosphere is definitely—

(Is there still something to do, Misaki san…!)

Indeed, I’m in good shape today.

It’s as if a possession has been firmly peeled away, and my shoulders feel lighter.

My whole body was strongly telling me that I could concentrate on my performance without any worries.

In fact, I was in a good mood for the shoot, and I think my performance was even better than before.

I’m at my best, I have no enemies.

I felt confident that I was the star of the show and that I would not let anyone get ahead of me.

But when I look at the person in front of me…..that confidence seems to be peeled away along with the possession.

[Thanks to you…..I’m standing here today.]

The level, it’s different.

Significantly more than anyone else I have ever seen.

This is a filming, and I’m the one being captured, not the viewer behind the camera.

And yet, somehow I can’t take my eyes off…….

If I’m not careful, I will forget all about the acting and get swallowed up.

[In the beginning, I detested you.]

Every gesture is significant.

It is not that he is exaggerating, but he is being natural, to the extent that it does not cause any discomfort.

His voice is lower, his facial expression is deeper, as if to express his feelings, and his movements on camera are more conspicuous, creating a strange atmosphere.

This is what I would call a suitable climax.

This makes it hard to tell which one is the protagonist.

……Ah, this is the kind of person who is described as a [genius.]

He is clearly ahead of the crowd of actors of his generation.

The third-rate can be caught on camera.

The second-rate actor is not uncomfortable with the image that flows through them.

The first-rate actor attracts others to the image of themselves on the screen.

Misaki san, however, attracts even the actors who are trying to appear on the screen with him.

How should I describe this?

(H-hahaha….to be this good at this young age !)

I have never seen such a person before.

I have never seen an actor who makes me aware that I myself will be drunk when I’m acting with him.

I have never been scared like this when I performed with a great actor, or with someone who is renowned as a talented actor.

That’s why …..that’s why I—.

(……Overflow)

I can’t lose, that’s what I thought.

(Game on, Misaki san!)

I don’t want to lose and have to accept retakes because I don’t appear well.

Even I have been told that I’m a genius and have survived this long and become famous.

I don’t want to be left behind because they raise the bar here and now.

My pride, which I have spent all my life as an actress, does not allow me to do so. And to have it done by a boy of my age?

I understand that Misaki san is a great person.

But still.

[At first, I thought Eiji was a jerk.]

I can’t say that the overall level of this film is flattering.

The cast members who were given the role were all models and idols who had never appeared in a film before, with the exception of Ikuta san.

[I was wondering what’s going to happen to my school life when I’m suddenly threatened and made to join the student council.]

If the color of the acting is extremely strong, the unevenness with the lighter colors may appear in the work, and it may break down.

But here and now,…..the final climax will not be disturbed by anyone.

You may smash it as much as you want, but it will never ruin the work.

[I know. Still, I’m slowly becoming attracted.]

[……I see.]

Something is burning in my chest.

The blood is rushing to my head and my heart is beating fast.

I’m definitely feeling uplifted.

[Attracted, saved, and with you in front of me like this…..my chest is beating noisily.]

Ah, this is.

Even if I don’t have to–

(……Joy)

Even if I act seriously, I wonder if it will reach or not.

I’m not sure if I can stand up to the best condition I have without a doubt in my mind.

This current situation where I am challenging myself is….fun.

(I see……. this is fun.)

I’m aware.

Akane would never think of fun in a situation like this, but she feels that way.

It is as if something that has fallen out is returning to my chest.

I know, I know. I used to have this feeling all the time before.

—This is the boundary.

Now I feel happy.

Now I feel angry.

Now I feel sad.

Now I feel happy.

This is the difference between the mask…..and me.

(Thank you, Misaki san.)

Thanks to you, I understand, right?

Thanks to you……I was able to find myself.

Such a benefactor walks towards me step by step.

[Me too, when I’m with you, my chest is beating loudly.]

Yes, my chest has been noisy since a while ago.

My chest is noisy, and I even feel like my cheeks are hot.

I can’t take my eyes off his face and want to hug him.

[This time I…I want to protect you. And be by your side, forever.]

I want to protect you too.

As if he had saved me, I’ll be the one who does it next time.

[When I thought so, I realized.]

Eiji’s hand gently touches Akane’s cheek.

[I love you, Akane.]

………….

…………………….

…………………………….I see.

(This is love.)

As expected, this is the first time.

I’ve never been in love with anyone before, so I didn’t really understand, but is this what you call love?

I see…..I don’t hate it at all.

It’s exactly the opposite of the feeling I had when Misaki san pushed me away.

It’s a pleasant feeling that I don’t dislike.

(I’m in trouble……)

I have shot scenes like this before.

I don’t know what to look like, what emotions to express, what to do.

But now, I don’t have to act, it comes out on its own.

The same way as Akane.

[I love you, Akane (Sakura).]

What to do?

What should I do?

But I know that these feelings are not my own, it’s created by the role I play–

[Me, too.]

I gently put my hands on Eiji’s face.

(In case you were talking about cheeks…….)

It’s okay, right?

Even I can improvise like this once in a while, you know.

[!?]

Eiji’s face in front of me……no, Misaki san’s face became surprised for a moment.

Maybe it’s because I let my lips touch Misaki san’s lips.

(Fufu)

Surprised, surprised.

But I have to do this much so that he knows I’m not acting.

Because my first kiss is not that cheap.

(After all…)

For me, Misaki san is–

[I love you too, Eiji (Misaki) kun !]

I smiled as I moved away from Eiji’s face, my happiness soaking through me.
