I am not lying

When Haru and all the girls of Muse had left, Erena and Anju who were two members of A-Rise couldn't help but turn their heads toward their leader, Tsubasa. Even though Tsubasa had told them that she was joking, they could tell that the relationship between Tsubasa and Haru was real.

"Tsubasa, is he really your ex-boyfriend?" Erena asked.

"Should you say that? We're an idol, and if all the girls from Muse decide to publish the gossip between you and him then our group will...." Anju didn't know about all the members of Muse that much and she was afraid that they would publish this gossip to media which would lead to troublesome matters.

Erena and Anju had been a school idol group for quite a long time and they understood that sometimes some group of people would do anything to get what they wanted.

When they were waiting for Tsubasa's answer, Tsubasa squatted down on the ground, hugging her own knees, and burying her face while letting out a strange voice.

"Tsu - Tsubasa?!" 2x

Enju and Erena were stunned by Tsubasa's sudden action and hurriedly asked whether Tsubasa was alright, but...

Tsubasa raised her face slightly with a red face. "He - He has become even more handsome..."

"..."

Enju and Erena were speechless, but they had to admit that guy was very handsome. They were also slightly nervous when they met him since they didn't expect that they would meet the richest man in the world.

"...So he's really your ex-boyfriend?" Enju didn't give up on her question.

Tsubasa nodded and said, "He was my boyfriend during my 3rd year of middle school and he was my underclassman at that time."

"Then why did you lie before?" Erena asked.

Tsubasa showed a wry smile and said, "He already has a girlfriend." She knew that her status as an idol didn't really matter since she was sure that with his ability, it would be very easy to hide the relationship between the two of them, however, it was a different matter when he already had a boyfriend.

"....."

Enju and Erena looked at each other and couldn't tell that their leader still had feelings for that guy.

Then Tsubasa stood up and said, "No matter what, we will be the winner of Love Live!"

Looking at the determined expression of their leader, Enju and Erena smiled and nodded.

"Yes!" 2x

But then...

"So what stage have you reached?" Enju asked.

"Have you two kissed?" Erena asked.

"..."

Tsubasa's ears became red and let out a long sigh, thinking about her happy past. "No comment!"

Sitting on the bus, Haru rested his chin against his hand while staring at the window.

'Now that you mentioned it, I haven't asked how she knew that I'm Muse's producer?'

Haru couldn't find the answer and thought to ask Tsubasa later, but then there was something that he needed to settle first. He turned his head to the side and could see nine girls who had been staring at him for a while.

"If you have something to ask then ask."

Haru could see except for Eli, Maki, and Nozomi, the rest members of Muse wanted to ask him a lot of questions.

"Haru, is Kira-san really your upperclassman?" Nico asked.

Haru nodded and said, "We're in the same middle school as before."

"Th - then is... is she your ex-girlfriend?" Hanayo asked nervously.

Nico and Hanayo were hardcore fans of A-Rise and they couldn't believe that their producer was the underclassman of their idol in the past.

"She said that she was joking, right?"

Haru wasn't sure what Tsubasa was lying about their relationship, but since she had told them that she was joking, he was wondering why they asked him this question again.

"Haru, tell me the truth." Maki stared at Haru while tucking the sleeve of his shirt.

Haru looked at everyone who was also staring at him. "Don't tell anyone, alright? They might be your rivals, but I don't want you to win by underhanded technique."

Everyone nodded without hesitation, however, some of them felt quite uncomfortable.

"Yes, she's my ex-girlfriend," Haru answered.

"....."

They had a feeling that it was the truth, but when they heard it from Haru's mouth, they really felt uncomfortable at that moment.

"You... You..." Nico looked at Haru in disbelief and asked, "Why did you break up? She's Tsubasa Kira! The most popular school idol group in ---" Before she continued her mouth was being covered by Haru.

The corner of Haru's eyes twitched and said, "Didn't tell you to tell anyone?"

Nico then turned around the bus, but she sighed in relief when the bus was quite empty and the only passengers inside the bus were only him and the Muse's members.

"The reason for us to break up isn't important, right? More importantly, you need to think about your exam and your concert!"

Haru quickly changed the topic of conversation.

"Wait! Let me ask another question!" Umi raised her hand.

"What is it?" Haru looked at Umi and wondered what this girl wanted to say.

"What are you going to do with us?" Umi asked.

Haru raised his eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I mean... Tsubasa Kira is your ex-girlfriend, right? So are you going to stop as our producer and then help them after this?" Umi asked with a worried expression.

Everyone also had the same expression as Umi since they were worried for him to leave them.

"....."

Haru was speechless, Tsubasa might be his ex-girlfriend, however, he had three girlfriends in Muse. "What a stupid question."

Haru smiled and said, "Remember what I have to all of you in the past? I might be your producer, but I am also your fan and I hope to be able to make all the people in this country become your fans too. Of course, I won't do anything to betray you and support your rival."

When they heard Haru's answer, everyone sighed in relief and they also felt happy. Their faces were full of smiles and they also had let out all the worries in their hearts.

"And you're too stupid. I am a bit worried that if I leave you, you might be deceived by someone in the future."

"What did you say?!" 3x

The three idiots of Muse: Honoka, Nico, and Rin quickly became furious and they pulled his cheeks at the same time, showing how annoyed they were.

However, their relationship returned to how it was or rather they became even closer, but whether it was good or not, they weren't sure since they were sure that they were attracted to this bad boy.

Kotori smiled and also felt happy, but then she remembered Nozomi's words at that time.

"Kira-san, it's useless, even if you chase him down now because Haru already has a girlfriend."

Kotori clearly remembered Nozomi's words and she turned her gaze toward Nozomi who was also smiling. She wanted to ask this question, but somehow it was hard to ask.

'Ugh... what should I do?'
