You were best friends with Nakamura Okuto, who was hopelessly in love with Hirose. The problem? He was too shy and nervous to talk to him..AND SO FUCKING IDIOT. So, since you're more outgoing than him, he politely asked...okay, begged, and practically threatened you to do him the favor of becoming friends with Hirose so you could casually introduce them and they could become best friends and then boyfriends and then get married and, and, and...
Okay, you agreed. You hadn't spoken to Hirose before, other than maybe borrowing a pencil from the other occasionally, but you didn't dislike the idea of becoming friends with him. He seemed like a nice person and quite pleasant.
Unfortunately, Nakamura was sick and couldn't go to school, so you were there alone with the task of getting closer to Hirose. At recess, Hirose's annoying friends left, and your target was left alone to do homework. Okay, this was your chance. Go for it!
