The Princess Sitting Next to Me is a Sweet Girlfriend Only in Front of Me
“Why are you being so distant? Let’s eat together!”
“Nah, I don’t know…”
“Come on, eat, eat! Eaaat!”
“Alright, alright, I get it.”
I was pulled by the sleeve and reluctantly sat down across from her.
This was the cafeteria, a place where many students gathered.
Normally, I don’t come here.
I don’t want to run into my classmates.
But today, Fia said she wanted to eat here, so here I am.
Will there ever be a day when I can resist this slightly spoiled but endearing girl?
“I really don’t like the cafeteria. I can’t help but feel everyone’s eyes on me.”
“Huh? No one’s paying attention to you, Heim.”
“Really…?”
“Yeah, even our classmates aren’t really looking this way.”
Fia pointed, and sure enough, there were our classmates chatting and laughing.
Nothing out of the ordinary, just regular students.
They didn’t even notice us.
“No one would speak ill of you outside of that class.”
“So you’re saying they’re just caught up in the class atmosphere?”
I know full well that Gourie is the root of all this.
He dominates the class atmosphere, and everyone else just follows along.
“Next year, the classes will change, and Bafarsky will be in a different class from you. Then, our classmates won’t make fun of you anymore.”
“I don’t know… I still can’t bring myself to trust nobles.”
After being looked down on so much, it’s only natural that Gourie and I would be in separate classes.
Even the teachers didn’t expect Gourie to attack me this much.
“Does that mean you don’t trust me either?”
“Honestly, I don’t even think of you as a noble. I see you as a personal friend. Of course, I trust you.”
“Really? Yay!”
But next year…
That’s right, next year.
I’ve already spent several months as a student at this academy.
If I’m not in the same class as Gourie, life would definitely be easier.
But at the same time, it would also mean not being in the same class as Fia.
In a magic academy with so many students, it’s rare to be in the same class as someone specific.
A class with Gourie and Fia, or a class with neither.
Which one would I choose?
“…What are you thinking about? Hurry up and eat, the food’s going to get cold!”
“Ah, sorry. I have a sensitive tongue, so I prefer it a bit cooler.”
“What’s that about? Hehe.”
At least for now, I didn’t seem ready to choose an answer.
