Ike made up a plan to confess his feelings to Mysta. He was practicing in front of a mirror, reciting and trying to find the words he could have expressed his feelings to his loved one
Ike: Mysta... I love you... mmh no, too short...
Ike: I think I.... no, this can't work...
He was slowly panicking since he was thinking so hard about the words to use for confessing, but nothing good would came to his mind, so he just took a deep breath and let his heart speak instead of his brain
Ike: Mysta... it's been a long time since we have known each other... i still remember that time you came up to me and asked me if I wanted to be your friend. Since the first day, our friendship began to grow at an incredible speed. When we were in elementary school, we would often get separated by the teacher because we would always talk and be close to each other. When we were in middle school, we would often hang out, and that's when I started to feel that our friendship was closer than ever... and now, we are in high school, and I realized that I consider you more than just a best friend... I love you, Mysta... romantically...
He blushed as he was expressing all of his feelings in front of a mirror, pretending to be confessing to Mysta
Ike: Oh... That was a good one... very good one...
He then wrote down the words that he pronounced
Ike: This is perfect... he will surely and finally understand how I really feel about him...
He whispered as his pupils were heart-shaped just by the thought of him with Mysta, under a cherry tree, confessing his feelings.
The next day at school
Ike: Hey, Mysta!
Mysta: Hey Ikey! Listen... can I tell you something?
Ike: Yes, of course, tell me, what is it?
Mysta's face turned red
Mysta: I'm gonna confess my feelings for Samantha today!
Ike's expression completely changed from curious to panicked. He was confessing his feelings today?... Couldn't he wait? No no... this is bad...
Mysta noticed the sudden change of emotions in Ike's face
Mysta: Ikey, are you okay?
Ike: Y-Yeah, I am, I just have to go to the bathroom...
He replied before rushing to the bathrooms, not letting Mysta say a word
Ike: No no... this can't be happening... not today!...
He was at the point of breaking down in tears for the news that he has just heard getting out of his best friend's mouth. He covered his mouth to prevent any noise to escape his lips while tears were forming in his eyes at the speed of a fountain.
Ike: No please... this has to be a joke...
His feelings were a mix of jealousy, desperation, and panic, and they were hitting on Ike all at the same time.
After a few cries and tears, he decided to accept the fate that Mysta was going to be with Samantha and came back to class.
Mysta: psst... psst!... Ikey... are you okay? You look like you've been crying...
Mysta whispers at Ike, trying not to be caught
Ike: Yeah yeah... I'm okay, don't worry, Mysta...
Ike whispered back
Mysta, even if he decided to believe that Ike was okay, he knew that he really wasn't. "Why is he acting strange now? Since I've told him that I'm going to confess to Samantha, he started to act strange..." He thought, but then he just decided to follow the classes and to find out about it later.
