Love Fest!

The morning had arrived and Hiroto was still in a deep sleep, while his alarm clock was ticking, someone opened the door and before the alarm clock ring aloud, the person already pressed the button.

The person smiled sweetly as she walks to the windows covered by a curtain while it separated the ray of sunshine. She pulled it up thereby lighting up the room in an instant. The person was illuminated by the sun rays revealing herself, She had a brown glossy hair with an unemotional black dotted eyes, though her body compensated her eye's personality while overcompensating everything with a developed body, she had an enchanting soft natural lips and just by looking at her face, you can feel that this woman was a gentle and a reliable person. She turned around and looked at Hiroto, her son who was still asleep even if the morning sun rays had filled his entire bed, it was her fault to begin with.

She walked closer and whispered in his ear "Hiroto, my dear wake up or you'll be late,'' while she's started to poke his cheeks..

Hiroto who was still sleeping heard a soft voice coming to his ear like a bell. His body subconsciously react turning to the other side "Give me 5 more min....!"

!!

With a jerk, Hiroto realized there was someone near based from his half sleep reaction. "Whoa! Who?!"

"It's me Hiroto, your Oka-san" worried that she would be pushed away, but it seems that her son didn't do it this time.

Hiroto realized it was his mother, her name was Tamaki Mamako, in that moment a sad feeling overcame Hiroto as he looked at his mother.

Mamako looked at her son that had a heartbroken expressions and seeing this she was affected as well thereby she hugs him after the moment.

"Mo....ther? " Hiroto felt saddened from his predecessors memories while looking at his mother. Tears started to fall down on his cheeks as if he did not see his own mother for 20 years. It was his first time since he was reincarnated being hugged by his own mother. He wrapped his arms around her body instinctively.

- - - -

(AN: No one likes backstory dumps right?, don't worry you can skip this if you want,)

From what he had seen in the memories, Hiroto had always loved his mom, his mom taught him piano when he was below 10 years old. But when he grew up and reached middle school, his mom said she wants to accomplish her dreams, it was something like to 'advocate music to people.' while his father wants to make it big and create his own omega sized company abroad. Though, his childish predecessor didn't understand and try to make them stay. In the end, they had to leave as it was their passion so as before they get old.

His parents still loved each other and him, as they had different things they want to accomplish and they understand that, though they forget the first thing they had to do as a 'parent'.

Before then, he learned how to live alone at this apartment, though he still got the money from them, since they leave him alone, it was his childish way of thinking that they should at least support him financially. He turned into a leech to his parents while thinking 'that's their responsibility as parents', since they left him while he was young, they would at least need to do that, and even though they felt bad for it, nothing can really changed their hearts.

Before his mother leave for work, she hired someone to take care of him. It was just the first month, but he has already made the nanny leave with tears. At that time, his mother was in a faraway city and she can't really abandon her commitment.

After years of being left alone, Hiroto's heart became more distant to his parents and to others, he didn't like to speak with others much. Meanwhile, whenever his mother or father calls if he was doing fine, he would only exchange a few words with them before hanging up. His mother would sometimes visit him in a few days, only be welcomed with cold word albeit this son of her keeps acting like this, she always tried to open his lonely heart, she wants to heal it even for just that moment of days. She even wanted to quit her own job just to accompany her son, but the entertainment industry won't let go of her, she had already signed a contract she wasn't allowed even if she wants to as breaking a contract had many penalties.

Though his vacation during middle school, they only came once a month and after was just them calling on-line.

His salvation during that time of loneliness was his hobbies, and a friendship. His very good friend named Yasuo Takagi, they had the same hobbies and the talkative Yasuo was also not that good with others but they only got along well when they know each other. During the time, he would always go at Yasuo's place and stay overnight which sometimes take a few days or a week. Yasuo's mother was really caring, though it was still just that, it can't replace the feeling his parents had in his heart.

Thought right now's the current Hiroto was feeling a bit distant to Yasuo, he considered his predecessor feeling and try to make up to him, at least helping his friend who helped him before, when he's still at the depth of the abyss.

After they graduated to middle school, his vacation, Yasuo went over to his grandparents' place and stay their. They only came back when the vacation came to an end, though he didn't also understand why or why Mashiro didn't say anything to Yasuo, and just before they left, Yasuo told Hiroto about it. Hiroto turned into a shut-in thereafter.

His mother was the one who applied for his highschool, and since he doesn't want her to stop the 'support', he accepted to go to highschool and applied at Otonokizaka Academy. Without any motivation at the test, though he study on the very second day until the test, it barely made him passed, it was his mother that helped him through some backdoors, though he didn't know it.

- - -end

Hiroto realized that he was reminiscing some of his memory. The tears continued to fall on his face. He realized that he needed to fix his behavior, at least to pacify the remnant 'thoughts' of the past Hiroto in this world.

"I'm sorry, mom, im sorry for not trying understanding you.." Hiroto looked down with a saddened face.

"It's okay honey, Oka-san and Otou-san were the ones who leave you in the first place." feeling that Hiroto change to a better one, Mamako felt happy as she sighed with relief.

"No, I have done cold things to you and dad, I thought that you and dad neglected me, so I became rebellious." Hiroto predecessor just feel lonely everyday, without the proper person to take care of him, he turned more of a loner. He was just felt lonely, and seeing his parents always away, but he didn't really reciprocate when they go home.

"We have been very bad, we know we are lacking as a parents. S-sorry Oka-san wasn't able to come this past month and your Otou-san busier than me ." Mamako felt really saddened, she teared and started to cry as she with a hand she cupped Hiroto's cheeks while on the other patted gently on his head.

"Mother" he smiled slightly, looking at this apologetic crying mother, his heart felt appeased and ease.

Hiroto's predecessor passed away without being able to apologize to his parents, he just wished his predecessor had reincarnated to a better family that he always wished for.

"Then, well all is well.., Oka-san feels that you've changed but it's a good thing seeing you this happy." there was also some tears on Mamako's cheeks she put her both hands to Hiroto's face to wipe the tears on his face while thumbing below his eyes.

"Oka-san still preparing for breakfast, you go prepare for your school, Oka-san have already ironed your uniform and the bath is warm so go shower first, we'll talk more later." Mamako said as she stood up, while patting Hiroto's head again before heading back to the staircase.

Feeling the care again of his mother, Hiroto felt really bad about his predecessor treatment to his mother. Even though they were always away, they would still take care of him every time they got here, and his predecessor would always try to shoo them and make them feel sad.

Hiroto went to the bathroom and take a shower. It gave him a breather and after that, he wore his uniform. He look at the mirror to make himself more handsome.

Going down the stairs and into the kitchen, Hiroto heard his mother humming while she prepares their breakfast. Before sitting, he saw the food on the table, it was a full course meal for both of them.

Thinking of his understanding Mother, he smiled.

"Mother, let's eat, this is already too much, don't make anymore." he said softly to his mother, understanding that, Mamako put her apron to the side, and walked to the table and sits beside him

"How's your school? Did you make friends in school?" she smiled, towards against him while she put her elbow leaning against the table as the hand fixed on her head.

"Yes, more or less. Yasuo is also my classmate again" Hiroto replies

"Ah Yasuo-chan? It's been a long time since I saw that child, how does that child doing now?" feeling a bit bitter in her heart, Mamako felt glad that that Hiroto was still friends with Yasuo.

"He's doing fine, still energetic as always. I'm teaching some workout plan" Mamako already noticed the changes in his body, she didn't asked before but now she was curious.

"When did you start working out?" Mamako curiously looked at Hiroto.

"I did before the school year starts, I'm always holed up inside my room, I was thinking that day maybe I should start to change since I will become a highschool student and not a kid anymore so I started working out my body every morning at the park" while sighing slightly on what he just said. Meanwhile, Mamako heard the undertone though she didn't bother and ask for more.

"Yeah exercise makes your body strong and healthy, look at you now, you become more handsome and taller now than you usually is. I bet many ladies around you are getting attracted looking at you." Mamako said while snickering. Even though his mom is always not in the house, Hiroto changed and took care of himself and that made Mamako glad and relieved. The more she looked at her son the more surprise she is, not only his body and appearance changed, his outlook, manners and attitude had changed. She thought her own son finally m.a.t.u.r.ed and can spread his wings wide and fly far.

"N-no, stop thats embarrassing, m-mou"

...

Talking about his changes while he also asked her Mom about work, the two felt their Mother and Son relationship felt better as the atmosphere was filled with warmth of laughter.

...

It was still early, and he wasn't able to workout in the morning so he just decided to spend his time talking with his mom-Momoka while they spend time in the dining table..

"Why did you came back early mom? I thought you will not be home for a few months." Hiroto ask with a confused expression. Only a couple of months pass by yet she came back 2 months early. From what he remembers his mom have signed a contract in the business entertainment where she will be working during the day and night, her schedule was hectic was stressful. But she came early today,

Mamako working full-time didn't affect her appearance. Still look young and healthy as if she was an elf that never gets old after 1000 years, truly magical.

"We'll somebody just had to appease the citizens with his piano, even my clients were affected, I have seen on the internet." feeling amused while she eats her food, while sometimes trying to feed Hiroto in the process but declined the approach a few times.

"Appease?" making an ignorant face, Hiroto took a mouthful of food.

"Are you hiding something from me Hiroto, look who it is?" though Hiroto had already guess who it was, but still kept making the expression.

Mamako showed a certain someone playing a piano piece, the video quality was good and the sound can be heard clearly.

"Wohh! isn't that me." not really surprised or anything, Hiroto made a ridiculous expression while trying not to make it fake, though horribly failing.

"Don't that me, do you know how much surprised Oka-san was when my senior suddenly show this to me, Oka-san nearly fell my b.u.t.t in a chair you know." Mamako rolled her eyes at Hiroto while giving a suspicious eyes.

"When did you get better at piano?, Did you take piano course when i'm away?" staring at Hiroto like peering through his secrets. Though Mamako felt glad about the changes of her son, she followed up.

"Oka-san bring the piano so can you play for me for a bit?" Mamako stand up and collected her electric piano on the case, setting it up with its stand. Totally master at this job, she turned her head at Hiroto and motioned her hand to him.

"When Oka-san heard your piano, to be honest, Oka-san felt it was the best, so Oka-san was really surprised when I see you playing it, hm-m maybe it was in our blood to play piano, and Oka-san really proud of you." Mamako ruffled his hair while she had a bright smile, she didn't get jealous about the skills on piano his son had shown but instead she appreciated it and kept on showing praises. Though it was really just his predecessor that was neglected for years and even if they would come back bit by bit, it didn't fix it as the time of their meeting would always be in just a few days. and Hiroto was just a childish that year before he died.

"When Oka-san listened to it more clearly, Oka-san felt my body lifted as it transported me to an illusion, where dreams and the piano's emotion are the piece" Mamako kept on making different gestures making her really look cute. Seeing this Hiroto felt embarrassed.

"I-its just because I been practising during the vacation" he maked up while scratching his head.

"Vacation? even though there's no piano in the apartment?" seeing Hiroto getting fl.u.s.tered it felt quite cute to her, it felt like it was her first time seeing him like this.

"I went to the music house… and, I applied a c-c-piano..course." Hiroto was stuttering while he kept making up, Mamako who kept pressuring him felt a bit bad now.

"Well, it's okay if you don't want to tell me the truth, but Oka-san was still proud of you, but you must show and play for Oka-san right now or you won't make your Oka-san happy" smiling at Hiroto she said while she urged him to sit on the front of the electric piano stand.

Hiroto walked at the front and sits at the stool while Mamako was behind him curiously looking and thinking what piano piece he would play.

Mamako was surprised about the original composition he played at the video, as she had read one of the comments mention it. She was seething with curiosity, and also she wants to know if she can use the piano piece and if she can use to spread it to the country.

"Mother, the piece I would play is called 'Grande Valse Brillante Op.18'." Hiroto played the piano with a moderate tempo as he wants to showcase his skill. It made his demonstration show the pleasant emotions that the piece shows.

"This tone!" even though Mamako had seen him play in the video, but seeing it in real life was a different matter.

The imaginary notes floated around Hiroto as if they were dancing happily. Mamako was lifted to another realm, she saw herself in a dress. She saw others wear dresses, elegant suits and chandeliers, it was an elegant party. She felt like she was dancing with Hiroto while he was with a manly suit. He lead Mamako with his composed dance. They were dancing with many people as well, it felt unreal and it made the very party very lively. At the end of the piece Hiroto held Mamako with his hand as they posed at the end of the tone, like romeo and juliet, the others clap at their magnificent dance.

Mamako hurriedly claps her hand and she closed at Hiroto after the piece. She eyed him asking with her eye with a look of veneration.

"Who's the composer of this piece, tell me Hiroto!, Oka-san want to play this song on her opera's" Mamako urged Hiroto with asking eyes, while she put both her hands in Hiroto's shoulder, he felt his mother really love playing piano.

"Ugh-h, its from my friend on the internet, its okay if you want the composition." Hiroto slightly smiled while he didn't want to release the pieces from his world this easily. But for his mother, its okay. He found a notebook and outline the musical composition while telling Momoka.

"You can use it without worry Mother, my friend doesn't really care about the copyrights of this but you can't give this composition to others-okay?." Momoka readily nodded while she held the complete composition of the piece. She felt adoration to her son's of her as she quickly hugs him while showering his cheeks with some kisses. Meanwhile she got teary and cried for a bit.

"Mom, don't cry.." Hiroto tried to removed Mamako's tears. She composed herslef while hugged her son again.

"Honey, Oka-san love you muah muah, this is from your Oka-san, its like your first gift to me, don't worry about others, this piece would be only used by me, if Oka-san find anyone tried to play it." Momoka show a dangerous expression after her appreciation with Hiroto. While Hiroto let out a deprecated laugh.

"Ok, he-he."

Hiroto also played the pieces he had played at school, though he didn't give the pieces to his mom for now. He felt it would trouble her if he just give her every piece he knows and Mamako would probably agree to this.

- - - -

"Wait!, honey," Mamako tried to fix her sons uniform, the revealing m.a.t.u.r.e body was seen by Hiroto, he was so embarrassed and back away, though not before he left her finish it.

"Good luck at school, Oka-san will be here for 3 days, sadly your Otou-san wasn't able to come." Mamako sadly sad but thinking of Hiroto's extraordinary changes, she knows that in the future, his father would be able to get along again. Hopefully. He checked his shoelaces fast before walking out.

"Okay Mother, see you later!" Hiroto looks back and waved his hand in the air.

"Come back safely!" Momoka waved her hands softly while her eyes closed for that bit, she felt a bit teary seeing her son grows up.

Hiroto felt his heart settle, he understand that they still loved him, that's all that matters..

- - - -

Hiroto meet up with the energetic Yasuo and started their usual banter, though Yasuo kept on speaking about his workout and pains. Hiroto only smiled and listens to him, he was in a good mood today.

They reached the school campus and met Takeshi who was changing his shoes in front of the shoe lockers.

"Takeshi, Good Morning!" Yasuo raised his right hand upward.

"Yo, Yasuo and Hiroto." Takeshi greets back

"Good Morning" Hiroto smiled and nods

"Today was supposed to be the best day for all of us, but sadly it seems our highschool days would be as bland as always" Yasuo thought of the change in the school subjects for today, suddenly felt down.

"Yeah-h, to think our PE would be this disappointing, I was looking forward to it too.." Takeshi with a drop shoulders heavily sigh.

"Yeah, also we have to suffer until we graduate..." Yasuo covered his face with his hands while letting out a small tears on his eyes.

"I thought after graduating our next PE subject would be better, now it turns to this." Yasuo continued.

"I am expecting some bloomers before I enrolled in this ex all girls school. Seeing bloomers is like… kuhh-h wearing tracksuit, thats cheating! " Yasuo regret that he enrolled in this school.

"What are you talking about?, you mean the girls you see is not enough for you?" Hiroto snappily said to Yasuo and ignores the two of his friends.

"It's okay Yasuo, I feel you! But if we don't hurry Kirisu-sensei might kill us." Takeshi pats Yasuo's shoulder look at him with a gentle eyes but deep down his worried of being late.

"Ah! We need to hurry!" Yasuo quickly change his shoes and the two of them quickly followed Hiroto

They manage to get inside on time before Kirisu went inside to start the homeroom.

"I will be taking attendance now" Kirisu seems satisfied that everyone were all present "For today's class duty, I'll appoint Hiroto and Tomoko. I am counting on you to distribute the math notebooks to your classmates, get them during lunchtime" Kirisu sighted a look at Hiroto and Tomoko before she continued the homeroom.

"Today noon class was Physical Education and Home Economics, all freshmen would need their own uniforms, Hiroto and Tamako would also be responsible for this. While Yasuo would distribute them at lunch, am I clear?" Kirisu looked at everyone without exchanging expression

"Yes, Sensei!" Everyone in the class respond.

"Then, Homeroom is finished." Kirisu closed her record book and walk out in the classroom.

The lesson started, Hiroto started his reading grind albeit still half focused, While few males were thinking excitedly of the noon class that would come soon and wants to show off their abilities while others don't want to participate.

- - -

"At last! morning class is over" Yasuo went over to Hiroto desk accompanied by Takeshi.

"Join us lunch this time?" Yasuo and Takeshi walked to Hiiroto's desk.

"Yeah, lets go." Hiroto joined them to the canteen as they headed side by side,

"You know you could introduce your girlfriend to us" Takeshi grins as if expecting something from Hiroto.

"..." Hiroto stared at them, while helplessly sighing.

"I don't have a girlfriend, I just met her while I am buying my books for school."

"Then why do you know those three, at least one of the girls there is your girlfriend, ahh! I know it was probably that blue haired girl right, the orange haired looked really cute and pretty" admiringly said by Yasuo while he thought of increasing the intensity of his training.

"She called you're first name, and your declining?" as if Takeshi said with his eye "I know everything".

"Like I said I just met her, she's not my girlfriend but a girl-friend" Hiroto sighed, while changing the topic.

"Anyway, Yasuo why don't you join track and field club, there are many girls there to show off , you can also exercise and workout after class, it's like killing two birds with one stone, right?" Hiroto find a way to change the topic.

"....That's possible" Yasuo scratched his non existent hairs on his chin as he thinks.

Yasuo for the first time thought carefully, though he didn't plan to join any club for now. But he thought this idea might work, while he was waiting for Hiroto's pill help, he might as well try. It might trouble his Otaku time but there is nothing he can do about it, that was his only worry.

"Right!, you should Yasuo, Hiroto is right, if you want to get a girlfriend this might be your first step." with a flick to his glasses, a glimmer of light shot out from it. Takeshi cheerfully recommended the idea, while he also thought of joining a club of something he likes.

- - - -

They reached the canteen as usual, the students were bustling and seeing Hiroto here was a surprise for them. They had heard that this good looking guy was always at the library and the library. The students also named him in their hearts "Handsome Musician" and "The Stylish Reading Fanatic", the first title was caused by the many girls hearing his piano and the other was from his continuous reading even when in class, as several girls from his class noticed him everyday and seeing him goes to the library made the title on-point. He doesn't talk much with strangers and he only talk naturally to his close friend or acquaintances.

They were also liked gossiping about his rendezvous with a certain red haired girl. It seems they love to talk about things like that, they might also had already created a fan club for him. As due to his fame with his mastery at piano, many girls had already fallen in love. It was the student council posting at the website about male privacy and theirs, so everyone in the school right now is more in the passive when it comes to student they don't know about, especially between the opposite gender. It was only a matter of time before the flood of love letters and confession reach him.

Well another point is that his videos were already on the internet being shared by many. He doesn't know how to deal with that for now.

- - - -

"Did you joined the Music club? I saw many girls forming around, wanting you to join their musical clubs. They also join events outside to compete with other schools, a talent like you would be a great addition in the coming competitions with other schools."

"No, I haven't joined any club yet, I'm just performing daily at the music room since. Maybe joining a band might be a good idea but I don't have plans of joining one for now" Hiroto thought of his daily routine though it might be good to join as it will increase his SP, but for now he didn't consider that, or at least until he gets more skills. Piano was more efficient and with the students crowd at school, he didn't plan to just waste some of the juicy SP. In a music band, they still need to practice right? As every club that had competition written in it would always accompany the word 'training'. Meanwhile, he can just farm with his piano everyday.

"But you like performing for others right, besides you would have a big harem or you already have your harem without knowing it." Yasuo showed his one hand like counting the harem members, though he might get jealous by counting it, so he stops thinking about it. good guy yasuo

"Are you an idiot? Obviously I don't have one! (AN2: Beta be like?)(AN:Lol), looking only at their outer appearance while not looking inside making them blind about love " Hiroto rolled his eyes, though in his mind he would want one as well, well every straight male probably do.

- - - -

They continued to banter until 30 minutes passed already ate their food on the trays. Hiroto and co, head back to the class direction, but Hiroto stopped halfway and said.

"I need to read some books for a bit " But before Hiroto can ran, Yasuo exclaimed.

"Oi!, You had class duty with that Kuroki, remember?" Yasuo reminded Hiroto, he might be implicated if Hiroto didn't do his job, Kirisu-sensei might give him her cold glares.

Ah, I almost forgot" Hiroto hurriedly headed to the class and bring Tomoko to follow him.
