Mermaid, Angel and Devil – Chapter 4: Preparing for School

Live one's life to the fullest, never looking back and wanting for something simply because one did something which would cause repercussions later on. To Yuzuru, that was getting three girls pregnant, and having twelve kids with them, making things hard to phantom where things would go. The plan when it was just him and his sister happened to be to get her through school while getting an education himself, and seeing her married. Now, his little sister was a pervert.

He settled all of the girls into the main living area with futons, not wishing to figure out who would go into what room. Things were certainly crowded, and there was no way they could afford a bigger place. Magic was afoot, and yet he had no control. He woke up in the morning, forgetting until he nearly tripped over Yuri's foot, and then Yui's tail what occurred the night before. Angel…

She'd taken over his job of fixing food, though where she got the food bothered him. He looked into the refrigerator, realizing she'd used everything for the breakfast she prepared, meaning there would be no lunch for him and Hatsune, unless he could somehow scrounge up some extra money. Nothing was left in the bank, or the piggy bank. A sigh escaped his lips, as he took his meal.

"Wait. You did make stuff for everybody, right." He carefully counted the plates. One, two, three, four. Two plus three however added up to five.

"I don't like Yui."

"Yui gets your food then."

"Yes master."

"Also, what about school for you girls."

"School?"

"Yes. I can't just have you girls living here, and school costs money."

"Oh. Well…"

"And how am I supposed to get you three registered for school."

A yawn came from Yuri, who finally woke up. Her eyes blinked a couple of times. "School? I graduated from school a long time ago."

Yuzuru felt he should be glad that there were no jokes about schools of fishes, only for Yui to sit up, and mutter in her sleep about how schools comprised of fishes didn't count. She held up her thumb when she realized what was going on, and said she would handle getting into school somehow, as she had the demon powers to do so. The male looked at her, before turning to angel. "Say, if she's unable to use her powers, get her in. If she hurts someone, fix it."

"Don't punish her?"

"Don't punish her." Yuzuru let out a sigh as his sister appeared. Straighten out your clothing Hatsune. We need to leave soon."

"What about my momma sisters?"

"That…" The young man let out an irritated sound. "Can it. They've got to figure out how to get into school."

The two left, his sister sitting on the end of the bike, riding behind him so he could drop her off at her middle school. She seemed excited, and quickly he realized to tell her not to tell anyone about their house guests.

"Yo!"

Yuzuru blinked a couple of times, turning his head to see Hinata Hideki looking at him. He frowned, wondering how the guy could like to hit on so many girls, but how if the guy found out, he'd find himself getting a lot of flack for having more girlfriends than Hideki ever did. He was a ladys man of sorts but was upfront with girls. He had two girlfriends once, because the girls thought it interesting, and that's why he dated. Girls were interesting, and he wished to please them, so girlfriends only lasted for one date. Could one really call that having a girlfriend?

Yes and no, but Hinata Hideki simply liked charming girls, doing things for them and girls seemed to accept that. His friend was strange, and would likely want to break the curse on these girls, blaming Yuzuru long before he blamed poor Hatsune. "So, Hatsune, is there anything Hideki-nii can do for you today?"

Well, at least he didn't hit on Hatsune, and simply loved to act like an additional big brother. "I don't have any lunch today."

Yuzuru felt like he could slap himself, remembering Angel somehow managed to use all of the food. "Oh."

The look on Hideki's face said everything. Hideki pulled out his wallet, handing her some money for lunch. "Don't worry! I'll take care of your big bro as well."

Hatsune took off with a smile on her face. "Thanks."

"You owe me big time."

That usually meant doing something Yuzuru didn't want to do, either embarrassing, or taking over some kind of promise Hideki made. A sigh escaped his mouth, and he shook his head. "I can go without lunch."

"Nope. You need to tell me when you're in straights. You know my mum and dad would be quite pleased with the fact of helping you out. They rather live for it, you know."

"I know, I know." Yuzuru hoped the girls wouldn't show up at school, but also feared how they would get in. He imagined Yui burning the principle in hell, Yuri refusing to wear the uniform and running around naked. Angel, well, he couldn't trust her not to make a literal bloody mess.

He got into class, and put his head to the desk, just as his best friend snuck him some money. His best friend was the only guy he knew in class. The teacher came in, clearing his voice. "Class, today I have three new students."

Yuzuru realized then, it might have been a good idea to tell the girls not to tell their secrets. He'd watched plenty of Anime where the random harem girl would show up, and blurt out their intention to marry the poor sop. Now, he was the poor sop, and the three girls came in. All of them were thankfully in the school uniform, but that might not be a good thing. He worried about what they would say, closing his eyes.
