Ryuto Kashima, an awkward and withdrawn high school student, loses a bet to his friends Yusuke and Ren who demand that he ask out his crush. Reluctantly, he confesses to Runa Shirakawa, a beautiful and popular kogal girl in his class, that he is attracted to her and is shocked when she agrees to date him. They walk home from school together and Runa expresses a desire to get closer Ryuto. Arriving home, she invites him inside and suddenly propositions him for sex, but Ryuto is unable to bring himself to accept.

He becomes uncomfortable with the attention he receives from Runa during school hours and instead suggests they go on a date over the weekend. He struggles to decide where to take her before settling on letting her choose, resulting in Ryuto and Runa going to the mall together. Later, she fails to respond to his text for hours before eventually asking to meet up and Ryuto becomes convinced that she plans on breaking up with him. However, he is relieved when she instead gives him a present. Ryuto admits that in middle school he asked a girl out but was rejected, which damaged his self-confidence.

Runa shows the photo to Ryuto but is not upset by it. Based on advice from Nichole, Ryuto takes Runa to various bubble tea shops for her birthday, and at the end she asks to keep the map of everywhere they visited as her only present. Later at school, Ryuto overhears malicious rumors about Runa and Nichole wonders who could have started the rumors. In class, Maria seemingly begins to flirt with Ryuto. He attempts to defuse the flirting by saying he has a girlfriend but refuses to say who it is out of fear of humiliating her. He sees Runa entering a classroom with a male student who asks her out. She says she has a boyfriend but won't say who to respect his wishes, not because she is embarrassed. Maria indulges in the rumors about Runa by claiming that she only uses her boyfriends for expensive dates. Angered, Ryuto defends Runa and admits that he is her boyfriend. | ||||||

They settle on him trying to hold her hand first, which Ryuto eventually succeeds with while helping her into a canoe on a date. On the river, they both confess that they have wanted to be more outwardly affectionate and Runa kisses Ryuto for the first time.

Meanwhile, Maria decides to become more like Runa so she can steal Ryuto from her. | ||||||

Ryuto takes pity on Maria and consoles her. The next day, an out-of-context picture of them is shared around the school. Runa discovers that Maria was Ryuto's former crush, saddening her. Nichole assumes Ryuto has cheated and angrily rebukes him. Two weeks into summer vacation, Yusuke and Ren see Runa with another guy at the beach and send a picture to Ryuto who panics and runs to find her. They meet at the beach and Ryuto learns that the man is Runa's uncle. Ryuto tells Runa that Maria made a pass at him but he turned her down; she says she was afraid to confront him and apologizes for making a hasty judgement. They reconcile and Ryuto meets Runa's grandmother. Runa asks Ryuto to spend the summer with her at her family's beach house. | ||||||
