I really loved this story, it's going in my translation list.  It kind of reminded me of Kimi no Ticket but the characters' personalities are totally different.  Kinomi is a seventh-grader who likes Kengou.  They're both on the basketball team.  They got to be friends one time when Kinomi was complaining during practice about how hard it was, and how she might quit.  Kengou started lecturing her about just having fun and trying her best, and Kinomi thought he was a bit weird, but noticed he was kind of cute.  Then he told her she was cuter when she smiled, and Kinomi fell for him right then.  VERY cute, why can I never think of any other adjectives!!?
