Lala play baseball

<p>During a break on the school rooftop, Lala and Errol found themselves deep in conversation.<br/> <br/>"I'm rather surprised that you decided to come to this school, Lala," Errol said.<br/> <br/>Lala giggled, "I was observing your school from afar yesterday and it seemed like a fun place. You know, I've never had many friends since I've always lived in my mansion. It's mostly just been my robot, my sisters, and maybe one or two others, but I'm not sure if they count as friends."<br/> <br/>"I see. It's good that you're happy," Errol replied. He was taken aback by her candidness. It seemed they had grown closer, enough for her to open up about her personal life.<br/> <br/>Their conversation continued, with Lala sharing stories about her twin sisters and the size of her home planet, Deviluke, which she claimed was slightly larger than Jupiter.<br/> <br/>The bell signaled the end of break time and they returned to their classroom. The lesson was dull, but Lala seemed to be a model student.<br/> <br/>Time seemed to fly by in class, though sometimes it seemed to drag on forever.<br/> <br/>Their class advisor entered the room to discuss a matter and was about to leave when he turned to Sairenji.<br/> <br/>"Sairenji-san, as the class representative, could you please show Lala-san around the school?" he asked.<br/> <br/>"Yes," Sairenji replied.<br/> <br/>Errol, bored and looking for a change of pace, decided to tag along with them. He approached Rito, who was clearly infatuated with Sairenji but hadn't expressed his feelings yet.<br/> <br/>"Hey, can we come with you?" Errol asked, pulling Rito along.<br/> <br/>Lala, excited by the idea, quickly agreed. Rito, however, was a bit confused about being dragged along.<br/> <br/>"Why did you bring me here?" Rito asked Errol, a hint of irritation in his voice, though he was clearly happy to be near Sairenji.<br/> <br/>"Just to help you get used to being around Sairenji and stop stuttering when you speak with her," Errol explained. Rito seemed to understand and nodded in agreement. Sairenji led the way, with Lala acting as the cheerful chatterbox of the group.<br/> <br/>(Sairenji's POV)<br/> <br/>Currently, I'm leading Lala, the new student whom Rito confessed his feelings to, around the school. She's been chatting with Errol about various things and even managed to elicit a few smiles from him. She also tried to engage me in conversation, which felt a bit awkward at first.<br/> <br/>Rito, my crush, confessed his feelings to the girl who constantly talks to her and who is also rumored to be the fiancée of his older brother. It's all so complicated!<br/> <br/>When Rito confessed his love, I thought I might have feelings for him too. But when I saw him confess to Lala, it felt like I was struck by lightning. I walked away, lost in my thoughts, barely registering Rito's shouts.<br/> <br/>Now, looking at them, it seems Rito isn't that close to Lala. Maybe he's moved on, or maybe it's because she's the girlfriend of his brother.<br/> <br/>As I led Lala and the Yuuki brothers around the school, Lala's enthusiasm was infectious. She was constantly smiling and looking around, curious about everything.<br/> <br/>At first, I was curious about the girl Rito confessed to, but now, seeing her up close, I can see why he likes her. She's innocent, cute, and pretty - the kind of girl people would naturally adore.<br/> <br/>(Errol's POV)<br/> <br/>We arrived at the baseball field where the baseball club was having a practice game. A ball rolled towards us and Lala picked it up.<br/> <br/>"What's this?" she asked.<br/> <br/>"That's a baseball. The club over there is playing a game," I explained.<br/> <br/>"Really?!" Lala exclaimed, her eyes lighting up. She ran towards the field, shouting, "Hey, let me play too!"<br/> <br/>The players, charmed by her enthusiasm, allowed her to join. One of the players, underestimating her, threw a slow pitch towards her.<br/> <br/>To everyone's surprise, Lala hit the ball with such force that it broke the sound barrier and disappeared into the sky.<br/> <br/>"One would think she is not only pretty but also good at sports. I like her. I'll make her my girlfriend," one of the seniors said, impressed by her skill.<br/> <br/>However, Lala simply responded, "Eh, no thanks."<br/>"Wow!" the crowd exclaimed, "Senpai got rejected without hesitation!"<br/> <br/>Lala had dismissed the senior's advances in a childlike manner. However, he wasn't ready to back down.<br/> <br/>"Let's make a deal," he proposed, "If you can't hit my pitch, you'll become my girlfriend!"<br/> <br/>The crowd erupted in cheers again, "As expected of Senpai, proposing such an unreasonable one-sided bet. Amazing!"<br/> <br/>"Sure, I'll win anyway," Lala responded confidently.<br/> <br/>"Lala-sama, you can't! We're on a different planet and you said you didn't want to attract too much attention," a voice of reason chimed in.<br/> <br/>"Oh, I forgot," Lala giggled, adopting a cute demeanor.<br/> <br/>Despite being a princess from a planet where Earth was considered easy to obliterate, Lala wasn't the type to seek unnecessary attention. She didn't want to attract the attention of the Earth's government, primarily because it would be a hassle if they became interested and tried to capture her. Moreover, if things went awry, her father might destroy the planet. Although he was known to be indulgent, he still cared for his children, albeit sporadically.<br/> <br/>She pouted, unwilling to back down from the challenge, "But I don't want to run away."<br/> <br/>Looking around, her eyes landed on me and her face lit up with a smile, "Ah, I have an idea. Errol, can you play for me?"<br/> <br/>"Sure," I agreed, although I had never played the game before. I figured it would be simple enough - just hit the ball and walk away.<br/> <br/>The senior turned towards me and his face paled. He was one of the guys who had received a punch from me in the past. He had mistaken me for a girl and had been so annoying that I lost my temper and punched him, resulting in him being bedridden for days.<br/> <br/>I took the bat from Lala, and as I stood waiting for the pitch, I could feel the pressure building around me. The senior was visibly nervous but he took a deep breath, his face mirroring the determination often seen in manga characters facing a challenge.<br/> <br/>"Hmph, I won't hold back even if I'm scared of you. I'll make her my girlfriend! Take this!" he exclaimed, throwing the ball with all his might.<br/> <br/>The crowd was in awe of his throw; it was as if he had put all his energy into it. But their astonishment turned into shock as I casually swung the bat, hitting the ball and then walking away.<br/> <br/>"Done, let's go," I said.<br/> <br/>"Wow, Errol, you're so cool!" Lala exclaimed, always easy to please. We slowly walked away, leaving behind a stunned crowd and a frozen senior with the wind blowing in his face.<br/> <br/>In a corner, a man dressed in a tracksuit was watching us. He was licking his lips and smiling as he walked towards us.<br/> <br/>"That was fantastic," he said.<br/> <br/>Sairenji introduced him, "This is Sasuga-sensei, the coach of the tennis club."<br/> <br/>However, I could tell he was not Sasuga but an imposter. This was my first encounter with an alien who was interested in marrying Lala.<br/> <br/>Elsewhere, Zastin was talking to a policeman, trying to gather some information, when a baseball traveling at Mach 3 speed hit him, knocking him to the ground.<br/> <br/>"Ugh," he groaned, trying to get up with the help of a wall. But another baseball, this time traveling at Mach 5, hit him squarely on the head.<br/> <br/>"I...will...find...you...and...have...my..... revenge.." he managed to utter before passing out.</p>
