Love at first sight. A phrase most commonly used to justify one's feelings of infatuation and lust.

We've already seen it played out a thousand times, from movies to novels or even in mangas. A guy sees this beautiful lady for the first time and out of nowhere, he's already in love. It's like some lazy author decides to skip the tedious task of character development and built-up just to quickly get to the good parts. Seriously, shame on you author-san.

However, despite what others may think, it's really nothing more than a mixture of confusion and delusions. In fact, the only reason someone can experienced this so-called "love at first sight" is because the object of their interest is a good-looking person.

Just look at all those famous fairytales, there's a reason why most of it's main characters is either a handsome guy or a pretty woman. Imagine this, if Cinderella is an old hag, the prince will probably not give a crap who's the owner of that damn shoe, or if the prince who kissed Sleeping Beauty is a perverted looking guy, then he better get himself a good lawyer as I'm pretty sure he's gonna get sued for sexual harassment.

Most people are too eager to be with someone they found attractive but are so easy to throw in the towel once they learn something unpleasant to this other person. Now, I don't know about you but I don't think you can call someone like that in love. After all, love is when you... Love is like... It's kind of... Sort of like... What is love? Let me spell it for you! L is fo- Wait, that doesn't sound right... [1]

Anyway, if I have to describe what love is, I suppose you could put it this way; it's like always staying by your little sister's side even though she's a little nosy about your private life and sometimes quite annoying. Yeah, that's what love is! Not just some shallow feelings based on someone's looks! Well, part of what I like about my sister is she's super cute, but that besides the point! Probably earned some Hachiman points right there, tee-hee!

Back to our main topic though, I guess the tl;dr of what I'm saying is this: love at first sight is a lie, you're hormones are just acting up.

But of course, trying to explain this to someone whose blinded by his emotions is almost impossible, which clearly is the case with this guy I'm talking to.

"It's love at first at sight, I just knew it Hikimoi-kun. Of all the girls I've met, never had I felt something like this before. To be honest, I never really believe on that kind of stuff, I mean surely, that only happens in movies, right? But after witnessing her, immediately, I know I'm in love."

The guy in question who's having a drug induced speech is none other than Kitagawa Nakagawa, a once classmate of mine in my third year of middle school. He's our class's resident joker and the team captain of our school's baseball team back then, which probably is one of the reasons why he's so popular with the girls, well, aside from the fact that he's also quite good-looking. Imagine if Hayama and Tobe do the fusion dance, (if your name is Hina Ebina, please don't) what you'll basically get is Nakagawa.

Now, you must be wondering how I, a self-proclaimed loner, become friends with a guy like that, huh? Well, the answer is no, we're not friends. I'm not even sure if I can call him an acquaintance as we hadn't talked to each other before, except that time he made some snarky comments about how lame I was for being rejected by a certain girl, which is more of a one-sided conversation as it's just him talking and me sucking it all up. Yeah, he's a dick.

"She's the only one I think about all this time. I couldn't even concentrate on my studies anymore as the very though of her makes my heart go crazy. Ahh... So this is what love does to you, makes you feel restless 'till you see the object of your desire."

T-this is too much. Listening to him talk is like being mind rape by an Angel. Help me out here Shinji, get in the goddamned robot! [2]

"What I wouldn't give just to see her again. Her beauty is unlike any other. You could hang a picture of her in a museum and everybody would call it a masterpiece. No one could possib-"

"Okay, I get it! You're having a mental breakdown because of this girl. Could you just tell me what do I have to do with this?" God knows how much longer do I have to hear his delusions if I don't interrupt him right there.

I glanced at my Vita-chan's screen where the words "You are dead" are currently displayed at. I would've win that boss fight if it weren't for this cursed phone call, talk about bad timing.

"If you're calling just to rant about your sick fantasies, then what you need is a psychologist and not me."

"But Hikimoi-kun, you need to hear me out here first. I want you to know what I'm going through so you'll understand how serious this situation is. She's one of a kind, I wouldn't dare-"

Call ended. What a waste, guess I'll be playing the whole level all over again.

Buzz...

Buzz...

"Why did you hang up on me?" he asked in his panicky voice. "You're my only hope here Hikimoi-kun, please don't abandon me!"

"Sorry, didn't mean to," not really. "Why are you calling again?"

"Ah, yeah, uhmmm it's about this girl. Yes, she's the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, nothing could even compare. Everyday, I always pray for nighttime to come just so I could see her again in m-"

"I'm hanging up."

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Okay, you see I saw you walking with this girl about a week ago so I figure I should contact you, hoping maybe you could help me with her. I ask our classmates if they still have you're number as I remember seeing you exchanged with some of the them back then. Fortunately, this one girl forgot to delete yours. And so here I am, calling you, asking if you could tell me who she is."

Oh, so that's why nobody's emailing me that time. Constantly checking the phone while waiting for something that will never come, that me back then is a pathetic person. And by the way, what do you mean by forgot to delete my number? You know what, forget it. The less I think about it, the better.

"Going crazy over someone you barely know in a very short time, you must've bump your head somewhere really hard."

"That is love, Hikimoi-kun. Doesn't matter how long or how much you know someone, what you feel is reason enough to pursue her."

I'm pretty sure that's the main reason divorce rates are on the rise. Pursuing someone without knowing if you can deal with their attitude, that's just plain ignorance.

"Let's just get over with this," taking a deep breath, I continued, "could you describe this girl you're so obsessed with? "

"Mere words can't describe her beauty, but I'll try my best. "

Here we go again...

"Her obsidian-black hair ,adored with two red ribbons, runs smoothly down to her waist, giving her a pristine image."

Uh-huh.

"Her rapture-blue eyes are like two sparkling sapphire against a snowfield, coupled that with her pixie's nose and a calamine-pink lips and you got the very definition of beauty."

I don't get half of what you just said but okay.

"And what she lacks on her chest size makes up for her delicate twine-thin figure which even the greatest sculptor could never hope to replicate."

Ahhh. If that's the case the case then I know one girl who can fit that description.

"I think you're referring to Yukinoshita."

So it's her, huh... Guess I shouldn't be surprised, after all, she already told me once that she had a lot of admirers back when she's still in junior high, though this is the first time I'd known someone who have feelings for her.

"C-Can you spell her full name for me?"

"Yukinoshita Yukino, as in yuki no shita no yuki (snow beneath the snow)."

"Ahhh... Her name fits her beauty just perfectly .One look at her and you know she is pure as the whiteness of the snow, fierce as a mighty blizzard, and captivating like a scenery of a snow-filled mountain. "

I think my brain cells are getting fried just by talking to him. If she have to constantly deal with guys like this back then, then that explains why her attitude is so cold. Yukinoshita, I now feel your pain.

"I'm just gonna ask, but since you see me walking with her, did it ever occur to you that maybe we're going out? "

"Ha! There's no way that's possible. You out of all people. The likes of you doesn't even stand a chance to be with a goddess like Yukino-sama."

I feel stupid for even asking. What he's saying is basically true though minus the insults. I've been rejected by her twice after all, and I'm merely asking if I can be her friend both of those times.

"Anyway, if that's all you need, I'm hanging up."

"Wait, Hikimoi-kun!"

"What?" You already ruined my game, isn't that enough?

"Uhmmm... I was just wondering if you could help me with this one thing..."

Asking a favor out of someone you can't even pronounce the name right after insulting him, this guy is just unbelievable.

"Hikimoi-kun, could you in some way introduce me to Yukino-sama?"

Great. Even at home, I still keep receiving this bothersome requests. Is this the curse of the Service club? Maybe we need to add an extra chair and ignore the one who sits there to end this nightmare. [3]

"Do I really need to help you with that? If I remembered correctly, you're quite popular with the girls, " in fact, there is this club where it's sole purpose is to serve this idiot. "Talking to her should be easy enough for you even without my help."

He starts clicking his tongue. "This is the reason why you got rejected by Kaori-chan."

You just have to bring that up don't you?

"You see, If you're the one who introduce yourself to a girl, she'll more or less see you as a total creep. But if a friend of hers introduce you instead, she'll at least know you can be trusted."

And I learned it the hard way, thanks for reminding me, dickface.

"There is an exception though. For example, if you're a super handsome guy just like me, it could still work without any help."

Can't argue with that, looks do matter after all. If that weren't the case, those prime time TV shows would probably be full of not-so-good-looking people.

"But still, I don't want to take any chances, that's why I need your help Hikimoi-kun. Just how the saying goes, you only have one chance of making a good first impression. "

Good to know his brain is still working. For a moment there, I thought his delusions had robbed him out of reasoning. Though there is this just one problem...

"Sorry can't help you with that," I said in a matter-of-fact tone "Actually, I'm not really on good terms with her so me the one introducing you might cause problems more than help. " Although I might've exaggerated a little bit right there, we're always having this little bantering now and then so I'm counting that as not on good terms with her.

"Whaaaaat? B-but, I saw you going out together! Who the heck goes out with someone they don't get along ?"

"Yeah, about that. You see, we're both members of this club where we help out someone for their request so that's probably the reason we're together that time."

"Is that so? " he paused for a moment as if in deep thought. "You said you're a member of this so-called club right?"

"Yeah."

"Then, I command you to fulfill my wish to go out with Yukinoshita-sama."

"Do you want to die? " Now, where do I put that notebook...

"Help me out please. Just this time, just this time and I promise I won't bother you again."

"No."

"Oh, come on. I know you're a good person deep in your heart. You're a good person, Hikimoi-kun. So please, help me out here, pleeeeease? "

"Nope," not gonna work on me. Only a masked guy whose having difficulties with his breathing would fall for that crap. [4]

"Please Hikitani-kun, you're my only hope here. I'm at my wits end right now. You're my only beacon of light in this dark times. Just save me Hikitani-kun and I promise I'll repay you with all my might."

I sighed. Why do I have to constantly deal with this kind of people. First there's Zaimokuza, then there's Tobe, and now here's this dickface. I swear I have the worst luck when it comes to having-to-deal-with-people lottery.

"Give me one good reason why I should help you."

"Well, that's because we're buddies!"

Silence...

"Hello? Hikimoi-kun, are you still there?"

I tightened my grip on my phone as I fight every inch of my body to end the call right there.

"We barely know each other and this is the first time we talked after all these years, on top of that, you can't even get my name right all this time. Now, you're telling me we're 'buddies'? Where the hell did you even get that idea?"

"You're name isn't Hikimoi?"

Silence...

"Okay, I know what you're thinking. I know I'm a terrible person for only contacting you when I need something. I'm sorry, I'm sorry if I made fun of you when you got rejected by our classmate."

So he still remembers it.

"I know I don't deserve your help for treating you bad, I understand. But, even with that, I'm still willing to throw away all my decency just so I could meet her. So please Hikimoi-kun, help me grant my request... "

Gotta hand it over to him, he just doesn't know when to give up. I'm probably gonna get a barrage of texts and calls from this guy if if I still say no and that's something I don't want to deal with. Sorry Yukinoshita, but sacrifices must be made.

"Alright, alright. I'll introduce you to her. But don't say I didn't warn you. "

"Really Hikimoi-kun? Really? Thank you, thank you! I owe you big time! I'll never forget this. Don't worry, I'll take you as the best man at our wedding day and I'll name one of our children after you. You're legit the greatest wing man that grace this earth Hikimoi-kun! "

I take back what I said, agreeing to help this guy is a big mistake...

Author's Note: If you're reading this, then I want to thank you for taking the time to finished reading this. Thank you _

This is the first fanfic I wrote and english isn't my native language so sorry for the bad writing and if there are some grammatical errors I hadn't caught on. Anyway, this story is based on the short story "Charmed at first sight lover" from the volume 6 of the haruhi suzumiya light novels. If you hadn't read it and you love the disappearance film, then I highly suggest you read that, you won't be disappointed.

My original plan is to write this as an one-shot story but I'm not that sure if anyone would even like this so I just post the part I'd already written. With that being said, let me know what your thoughts are about this.

Again, thank you for reading this, I really appreciate it :-)
