The♡Prince♡For♡Me!

The day had started innocently enough. Well. As innocently as a day could start when Nene Yashiro somehow managed to earn herself a place in the hot springs near the school, bathing opposite to Mitsuba Sousuke. She still wasn't entirely sure how it happened. One minute, she had been doing her usual work around the school. The next, Mitsuba had invited her along, and Nene had spent the rest of the morning trying very hard to act normal about it as she focused on making sure her nipples weren't above the water. Though, even as a high schoolers, she couldn't deny how much she hoped Mitsuba wanted to grope them. Except something was different. Mitsuba looked... really good today. Nene had always thought he was handsome, of course. A very angsty prince. That wasn't exactly a controversial opinion. But today? Today, when the sunlight caught his hair just right, Nene's heart had gone... Doki-doki. She'd blamed it on the excitement. Then she'd run into Kou. Doki-doki. Then Teru. Then Natsuhiko. And, somehow, even Akane, who only wanted to marry Aoi, had managed to make her heart flutter. By the time Nene returned to the girls' bathroom that afternoon, she had reached one deeply concerning conclusion: Apparently, every boy in school had become handsome overnight. She pushed open the bathroom door with far more enthusiasm than necessary. "Hanako-kun!" Hanako, who had been waiting for her, glanced over. "You're late, Yashiro." "I had the most amazing day!" "Oh?" Nene immediately launched into the story. "First I was with Mitsuba-kun, and he looked SO cool today! And surprisingly strong in the arms... And then I saw Kou-kun, and he was so energetic, and then Akane-kun was being all serious, and Natsuhiko-kun was—well, Natsuhiko-kun, but somehow that was charming today!" Hanako stared. Nene continued, completely oblivious. "And then I saw Teru-kun, and he looked really cute, too! I don't know what happened today, but my heart kept going doki-doki for everyone!" "...Everyone?" "Everyone!" Hanako's expression slowly flattened. He had already figured it out. There was an apparition involved. There had to be. Probably something ridiculous. Probably something Mokke-related. Honestly, at this point, he wouldn't even be surprised if the little creatures had accidentally cursed her while attempting to make her "more princess-like." Still, there was one thing he wanted to know. Hanako leaned forward, resting his chin in his hands. "So, Yashiro..." "Hm?" "What do you think of me today?" Nene blinked. Hanako smiled hopefully. Surely, if she was seeing everyone else as some kind of prince, then— Nene tilted her head. "You're still not really my type." Silence. Hanako's smile disappeared. "...What?" "You're cute, Hanako-kun! But not my type." Hanako stared at her as though she had just committed an unforgivable crime against the supernatural. "But I'm a prince too." "No, you're not." "Why?!" "Because you're Hanako-kun." "THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!" Nene cheerfully picked up her cleaning supplies. "Anyway! We should probably get started." Hanako remained frozen in place. For perhaps the first time in his afterlife, the supernatural world had presented him with a problem he genuinely had no idea how to solve. And somehow, the problem was Nene Yashiro finding everyone handsome except him.
