Popular and outgoing Majima is the last person Sonoki could befriend. Or, that’s what Sonoki thought. But after the barrage of text messages, calls, and days spent together, Sonoki realizes there’s more to Majima than his showy extroversion… and maybe something more between them?Comedic with a touch of drama, Here and There and Us is a story about unlikely matches and love found in the slow-paced days of youth.

As the days pass, Sonoki feels more uneasy about his relationship with Majima. Why does he feel irritated when he sees Majima chatting with other people? Is he even that close with Majima? Has worrying about Majima so much caused his grades to go down?

…Is it normal to feel this way about a friend? The buds of love from the first volume finally bloom in this volume of Here and There and Us!
