Ah, Valentine's Day, a romantic, warm, comforting date and blah blah blah...

Like the other years, Senku didn't have a Valentine.

But there was something different this year.

He WANTED a certain someone to be.

Obviously, he wanted Heloisa to be his Valentine this year. His first Valentine.

But something was stopping him.

He had always been the guy who only focused on his studies (Science), and out of the blue asking his best friend out was SO out of character for him.

Emotions had always been just a chemical process for him, but...

Anyways, he had to ask they before someone else would. What if they ended up falling in love and him would just fall behind?

He was going to ask Heloisa , and let whatever had to happen happen.

That day he had continued with his normal attitude, feigning disinterest in the date.

Senku had thought about asking his friend Taiju, but immediately dismissed the idea, since Taiju probably wouldn't keep the secret.

Taiju wanted to propose to Yuzuriha, we hope the poor guy can do it this time.

...

Heloisa was changing their shoes in the lockers at the entrance to their school, ready to leave.

Senku: Do you want to go to my house to do the science project?

Senku he said casually, although inside he was about to go into cardiac arrest. He tried to calm himself down by remembering that what he was feeling was just chemicals reactions and blah blah blah...

As he spoke, Heloisa opened their locker, and multiple love letters fall.

Senku froze in his place, his biggest fear just happened. Someone alredy confessed to Heloisa ...

Senku: Wow, so you alredy got son many suitors, huh?

He said casually, trying to keep calm, even tho his heartbeat started to fasten, waiting Heloisa 's reaction to all the love letters of their secrets admirers.
