Love is already hard enough, but it becomes an unnavigable maze for unassuming high school student Taichi Ichinose and his shy classmate Futaba Kuze when they begin to fall for each other after their same-sex best friends have already fallen for them.

The school sports festival is coming up, and Toma accepts the position of class 3-A's cheer squad captain on the condition that Futaba and Taichi serve as his vice-captains. Hoping to live up to Toma's faith in them, Taichi and Futaba diligently practice their squad's routine. But when the time comes to perform, Futaba hits a wall that threatens her very participation!
