Crazy trouble with love part 8

Ikumi and Soma part 2

xxxxxxxxxxxx

"Honey, please, are you sure you want to go back to school so soon? We could tell them you're sick or anything!"

"No dad, I can't, school starts tomorrow and I'll be damned if I miss it!"

"But you could call in sick! Just long enough for scientists to fix you." Pleaded her dad as she got her suitcase together.

"Dad, they said they can't! If they cut off my ears or tail it would be like cutting off my fingers or something, it would hurt me more in the long run, besides, I can hide them easily enough." She replied as she held up a baseball cap and slipped it on while folding her ears down under it and poked her horns through two holes to make it look like they were part of the hat while slipping some tight jeans on with her tail going in, but with a groan. "See?"

"But what about your chest? What if you start to leak in class, what i-" He was cut off as she frowned at him.

"Dad, I knew what the stakes were when I attended, and I am NOT gonna quit just because I've got a few extra parts."

"This is more than just a few small parts, your DNA has been rewritten! I don't know what they will do if they find out. Worse case scenario is that you're disgraced and expelled for 'being food' or something, god who knows what else they might do!"

"Dad, please, it'll be fine, I'll have Soma with me to help out, I'm even moving into his dorm so we can be closer and avoid any incidents." she smiled with her dad raising an eyebrow.

"His dorm? You mean, the two of you will be living under the SAME roof?"

"Yes, but not in the same room, it's better than staying in the regular student dorm I was in where HUNDREDS of students lived, shared showers and so on, if I stay there it's pretty much guaranteed I'd be found out, but his dorm has less than 12 people. That way if I'm found out we can calm them down before word gets out."

"Still, just how close are you two?" Her dad asked with crossed arms. "I'd like to know because when he came by to visit, he seemed a little...flustered."

"Well I did just show him my changes...and I may have kissed him?" She said sheepishly. "We didn't go any farther then that, I promise."

"What?!"

"Dad calm down, I don't wanna get into some argument when I'm already strapped for time."

"Honey, please, I really don't like this." He protested as she closed her suitcase.

"Look, I'll call you every day, I promise, besides, the doctor said the changed stopped, right?"

"He said he wasn't sure, but it was likely, but that means they could happen again, and who knows what could happen then!" He spoke as she started to walk away with him following. "Are you sure you can't just hold off till the winter?"

"Nope, I refuse to be stopped by this incident, I will go there, I will dominate the kitchens and I will graduate as top of the class!" She spoke firmly. "And even if they find out, I'll show them I'm more cook than food."

"I...but….fine, just please be careful, and call me the second anything happens, ok?"

"I will Dad, I promise, now I gotta go, love ya!" She waved before she took off running to the jet while feeling her tail wag under the jeans making her inwardly sigh. 'That's gonna take some time getting use to.' She thought as she got on the jet to see Soma waiting for her with a smile.

"So, you convinced him to let you go?"

"Yeah, but he was real persistent on me staying for a while." She replied sitting next to him with a wince. "It's gonna be hard sitting on this tail without anyone knowing."

"Well, the pilots paid by your dad and it is a private jet, you could let it out for the plane ride."

"I could...but try not to stare alright, it's embarrassing." She blushed.

"I won't, I promise." He said with a smile as he looked away as she pulled down her jeans a bit to let her tail out. "So, are the burns all healed up now?"

"Yeah, that cream the doctors gave really helped but I'm still marked as A-5 meat." She groaned.

"Have you tried putting some makeup over it?"

"Yeah, but it's on my breast and ass, I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky in that regard, they're places that have a lot of stuff touching them so makeup will run off, but they're easy to cover too." She remarked with her tail swishing while Soma sighed.

"Sorry I can't help you change all this."

"You're a chef Soma, not a miracle worker." She chuckled as she rested her head on his shoulder. "But you are accepting me and helping me, that's more then I could ever ask for, so thank you." She said with a smile.

He smiled and wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "Well what kind of friend would I be if I let this get in the way?"

"Not a good one, but I was hoping you could go from friend to being boyfriend?" She asked with a blush.

He chuckled and blushed himself. "Well after what happened, it'd be kinda silly not to go further."

"Glad to hear sommmmmoooo!" She mooed before quickly covering her mouth with a massive blush. "Damn it, I did it again!"

"Heh heh, it's alright." He smiled patting her on the back. "It's actually kinda adorable."

"No, it's embarrassing, if I do that at school I'll die of embarrassment." She pouted with a huff.

"Well, you could always make something up. Like how you wanna get in the mind of the cow to see how you can cook the meat better."

"Yeah, but I know that they'll bug me over it." She muttered as he sighed and patted her back.

"Well either way you can kick their ass in or out of a shokugeki."

"Thanks Soma, I don't know what I'd do if you weren't here with me."

"Yeah, but I just know everything will be fine, you'll make it through school, I'll go back to the diner, and maybe you could come with me?" He said with a smile.

She turned red hearing the double meaning and briefly imagined her and Soma dressed all fancy and shook her head. "L-Let's take one thing at a time."

"Ok ok." He said with a smile. "So...the dorm room near me is empty I think, if you want you could stay there, just make sure to cover your vent, senpai travels through them."

"Wait, what do you mean? You mean like he likes to keep them clean all the time?"

"No, he travels through them to see how we're doing, it's just how he is, so you might want to cover it so he doesn't see anything on accident." He remarked with a straight tone making her raise an eyebrow.

"Isn't that kind of weird and creepy?"

"No, it's fine, heck you should see his naked apron dance."

"His WHAT?!"

(Later)

The two of them were heading to Soma's dorm with Ikumi looking it over.

"So this is where I'm staying now, huh?"

"Yup, hope you adjust to so much free room around." He said with a smile. "I think granny's tasted your cooking before when you came over to party once, so you might get to skip the test."

"Please, any test she has, I can beat without even looking." She smirked.

"Ok, but it's a cooking one and you don't have any ingredients." He chuckled as he pushed in the front door. "Oi, I'm back!"

"Soma! Welcome back!" Called Fumio with a smile. "How was your trip to see your girlfriend brat?" She called before seeing Ikumi. "Oh! Sorry about that, didn't know you were coming by."

"It's fine, although I was wondering if you had any empty rooms? Due to….circumstances I need to move out of the regular dorms."

"Move in? Well sure we got room, I just didn't expect this out of nowhere. Soma you should have called." Frowned the old woman. "If you two are gonna be living here, I better not hear about you two messing around, got it?"

"Yeah, yeah, we got it." Soma said with a grin. 'Yes, I knew she would let her stay here!'

"I'll show you to your room, thankfully it's not right next door to Soma's or you two would never leave." She teased before heading up the stairs.

"I-It's not like that!" She cried out with a blush.

"Yeah yeah, that's what they all say." She shook her head with Ikumi frowning while Soma patted her on the back.

"There there, granny's just like that, you'll get used to it."

"She's gonna be a pain when we actually wanna spend time." She grumbled.

"You'd be surprised how lenient she can be." He chuckled as he shook his head.

(Later)

"Alright, this here will be your room."

"Alright, thank you." She said with a nod as she dropped her bags on the bed. "I'll contact the school and have them send me my stuff from my old room later in the week."

"Well when you're ready you can go out and meet the others, but remember, no hanky panky when I'm around." She teased before leaving her alone.

"Why won't she let that go?" Pouted Ikumi as Soma chuckled.

"It's just her way of saying welcome to the dorm, so…. Are you ready to meet everyone?"

"I….I don't know, what if something happens, what if the truth gets out?" She asked while feeling her tail move under her pants. "What if they think I'm a freak?"

"Then I'll kick their asses, but they won't think that, trust me." He said reassuringly as he wrapped his arm around her. "These are some of the nicest and crazies people I've ever met, heck I bet if they found out they'd throw a party."

"Let's not take the chance." She sweatdropped.

"Ah, right, sorry." He chuckled sheepishly. "So, do you want to head down now or wait a bit?"

"Well….we ARE alone right now." She said with a faint blush as she took a step closer. "We could… get a bit closer~?"

"You mean do what we did before? Wow, who knew you were so eager for more?" He teased.

"Well, what can I say, I'm a passionate girl." She said with a grin.

"Oh, is this our new roommate?" Came a voice from the ceiling, making Ikumi scream.

"That would be senpai." Sweatdropped Soma.

"He's actually in the vents?! I thought you were kidding!" She cried in shock as the vent opened and he stuck his head through.

"Hello there, I didn't know it'd be the expert in meat herself." Smiled Satoshi.

"Y-Yeah, Soma kept talking about this place so I thought, hey, why not move in?" She said as she shook her head. "But what I should ask is WHY are you in the vent and how much did you hear?"

"I use them to travel around and check on my little juniors, and I only heard that you and Soma were going to kiss?"

"D-Don't eavesdrop!" She blushed with a glare.

"Ok, ok, we're having a party in Marui's room, feel free to come join." He waved before popping back in the vents with Ikumi frowning.

"If I ever find out he does that to peak on me, I'm gonna shove my horns right up his-"

"Whoa, whoa, he doesn't do that, and if it's such a bother we'll set up a curtain over the vent, ok?"

"...alright." She sighed as she rested her head on his shoulder. "I don't have to like him being in the vents though."

"This should cheer you up." Smiled Soma turning her head before pressing their lips together.

'Finally, I've waited too long for this~' She thought as she leaned into the kiss with a happy hum. She wrapped her arms around his neck to keep it going as long as possible. Eventually Soma had to pull back for air, much to her displeasure. "Soma, I wasn't done yet!"

"We can't get too into it, we need to have you head down for the party after all." He smiled before looking down and blushed. "Plus I think you need to get a new top on."

"Huh? What do you mea- oh come on!" She groaned as she looked at her now wet top. "Ugh, I swear I'll have to get a milk tank at this point! Soma, could you please help me?"

"Sure, maybe go with something a bit heavier to soak in the milk longer." He remarked walking to her trunk and opened it.

"That wasn't what I meant….could you, ya know…" She blushed as she began to take her top off.

"Oh...OH!" He blushed seeing her bare breasts bounce out with milk leaking out.

"I-If you don't want to I understand...but it would really help." She said with a blush as she began to take her bra off.

"No no, it's fine, I just get a bit flustered is all." He said with a blush. "So...do I uh, squeeze them over a bucket or….what do I do?"

"Well...I was thinking...you could do what you did before."

"R-Really? Well, if you're sure…" He said with a blush as she nodded. He moved over and cupped her breasts while leaning down to one of the nipples and started sucking on it making her gasp with a blush.

'I really hope no one sees this, I might die of embarrassment!' She thought with a large blush as he kept sucking. She bit her lip to keep her voice down as Soma drank the milk and rubbed her thighs. 'No! I can't get turned on right now.'

'This still feels weird...but not bad. Also is it weird to think her milk tastes amazing?' Wondered Soma before moving to the next one and sucked even harder getting a yelp out of Ikumi. 'That's cute.'

"E-Easy Somooo-kun!" She cried out as her face kept heating up. 'Come on Ikumi, keep it together!'

Soma kept drinking before pulling back as Ikumi panted. "How are you feeling? Was I too hard?"

"Y-You were amazing!" She panted with a large blush as she grabbed a fresh bra and top. "I should be good for now."

"Let me know if you need my hand, or mouth, again." He teased.

"I-I will." She said with a blush as she got dressed.

Both of them headed on downstairs where the sounds of talking could be heard in the dining area.

"I swear I heard moaning, you know sound carries through those vents and speaker system, don't tell me I was the only one to hear it!"

"Maybe you were just hearing things."

"Augh, I know I heard something." Muttered Yuki as Soma and Ikumi blushed.

'Shit, we need to figure out how to soundproof the room!'

"Ah! Soma-kun!" smiled Satoshi, still in an apron as the others turned. "We're glad you two finally came down."

"Yeah, I was just showing her the room and telling her what to expect."

"Well as the senpai of everyone here, welcome!" Cheered Satoshi while the others clapped with a banner out that said 'welcome'.

"Yeah, welcome to the dorm!"

"Whoooo, a new member!"

"Aw, thanks." Ikumi said with a smile. "I know more about Soma than any of you, so hope you can tolerate me from barging in like this."

"Nah, it's fine, but where did you get that awesome hat?" Asked Yuki with a grin. "Those horns look awesome, can I try it on?"

"Uh...no, sorry, it's kinda lucky." She replied quickly.

"Aw, really? But it looks so cute!" She groaned.

"Let it go Yuki, you can try it on later. So, Ikumi, welcome to the dorm, you like cooking meat, right?" Asked Ryoko with a smile.

"Y-Yeah, it's my specialty." She said with a nod as she grinned.

"Great, can you try this quick? I think it would pair good with a beef dish." She said as she shoved a bottle into the girls arms.

"Uh sure, what is it though?"

"It's my special fermented rice malt, trust me, it's great!"

"...Wait, is this sake?" She asked in confusion and surprise.

"No, no, it's fermented rice malt, now drink up!" She urged with a smile making Ikumi raise an eyebrow.

"Just do it, there's no stopping them when they get like this." Soma chuckled with a grin.

"Ok...but this better not get me drunk." She said before she hesitantly took a large swig of the drink before coughing a bit. "T-That's strong!"

"Why thank you, I had it sit and stew for a week." Smiled Ryoko.

"So, what made you move here?" Asked Shun as he chewed a piece of jerky.

"Well I guess you could say I wanted a change of pace and design." She said quickly as her tail flicked a bit under her pants nervously.

"Well here are the Polar Star Dorm you're always welcomed!" Smiled Daigo.

"Hey! I was gonna say that!" Frowned Shoji.

"Well I said it first, so what are you gonna do about it, eh?" He growled as he bangd his forehead against Shoji.

"I'll kick your ass!"

"Oh yeah?!"

"YEAH!"

"Are….are they a couple? What is going on right now?"

"Oh don't worry about them, they always do that." Spoke Zenji adjusting his glasses before whispering. "Although that first part IS something I've often wondered."

"Oh my god, that would be something." Chuckled Yuki with a massive grin.

"So, you and Soma-kun are dating, right?" Asked Megumi curiously.

"W-Where'd you hear that from?" She asked with a blush.

"Well, Soma-kun was randomly kidnapped by several men in black suits and thrown into a limo and then he comes back with you?"

'Is that how dad got him to come?! What the hell?!' She thought with a sigh. "Well...you could say it's a real relationship, but we're just starting out so it's not too serious."

"Wow, so Soma actually DID go to meet a girlfriend? I thought he had racked up a debt with the yakuza nd that he was dead in a landfill somewhere until he came back." Said Ryoko in surprise.

"I figured he was being taken off to be part of a human traffic ring." Muttered Shun.

"I figured Erina finally snapped and put a hit out on him." Said Yuki with a nod.

"Come now, Erina doesn't hate me that much." Soma waved off with a carefree smile.

'Should I tell him that she's tried to get the school council to expel him multiple times?' Thought Satoshi with a sweatdrop.

"So, how's the fermented rice taste so far?"

"It tastes good….really good." She chuckled with a faint blush as she took another drink.

"Hey, don't hog it, I wanna try!" Yuki cried as she tried to grab the bottle.

"Nu huh, I'm not done." She spoke holding her back with one hand and took another swig with the other.

"Noooo, don't hog it!" She cried before grinning. "Fine, if you get the rice malt then I get your hat!"

"Huh?" She let out before Yuki grabbed the hat and started lifting it up. "No wait!"

"I got it n….ow?" She said before stopping in confusion as her cow ears popped out and the horns didn't come off with the hat.

This also got the others to stare with Ikumi and Soma going wide eyed.

"Ikumi….are those horns and….cow ears?" Asked Yuki slowly in shock.

"Um….no no, they're just props." He quickly lied. "You know, just meant for pretend."

"They look pretty realistic, and is that a cattle tag?" Asked Shun as his eyes widened a bit under his hair.

"No, it's uh...a name tag!" She said as her face heated up and her tail began to move around more in agitation.

"...it has a barcode on it."

"Yes, you uh, scan it to see my name? Very popular in America."

"Really? Can you show us how it works?"

"Um, sure, just scan it with a barcode reader, but unfortunately we don't have one here.: She said with a sigh of relief.

"I have an app for that." Said Ryoko as she pulled out her phone.

'Shit!' "I-It won't work! It needs a real one."

"Well it wouldn't hurt to try." She said as she quickly scanned the tag. "...Chimera dairy cow #376, Grade A-5?"

"Uh...must be a error." She said with a blush as her tail kept twitching. 'Augh, it feels so uncomfortable!'

"Ok….then if the horns and ears are fake you can take them off, right?" Asked Yuki as Soma groaned.

"Look, she can't really take them off, because…they're not fake, they're real."

"Soma-kun?!" Ikumi cried in shock.

"Ikumi, they already saw your ears and horns, they're not buying the excuses so we might as well tell them." He sighed making her frown.

"Well it would have worked if SOMEONE didn't grab my hat!" She glared at Yuki who chuckled embarrassed. "Fine, you caught us. I actually have cow ears and horns….and a tail."

"Eh? Really?" Yuki asked as she nodded and moved her pants down a bit to let her tail out. "It's so...so….cute!"

"It's not when I've had to keep it restrained in these pants." She grumbled.

"I think you brats are missing the big picture, how did this happen?" Asked Fumio as she crossed her arms.

"Well, let's just say there was an accident at a facility that my dad owns back home." She said as she rubbed her arm nervously. "Now I'm technically half cow…. Can you all please not tell anyone?"

"No problem, I can keep a secret easy." Smiled Shoji.

"I promise not to tell anyone." Said Yuki with a smile as she stroked her tail.

"Yipe!" Jumped Ikumi moving it away. "Hey!"

"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help it." Chuckled the redhead as she stuck her tongue out with a smile.

"I can keep a secret way more than him." Remarked Daigo pointing to Shoji.

"Like hell, I'm way better at staying quiet than you are!" Snapped Shoji.

"Bullshit, you're as loud as an elephant!"

Both butted heads while Shun raised his hand.

"I'll keep quiet."

"I won't say anything, but could I ask you some questions later about how this happened?" Marui asked as she nodded.

"I-I'll keep it a secret." Nodded Megumi.

"My lips are sealed." spoke Zenji.

"I'll keep it a secret, no worry there." Ryoko said as she patted her shoulder.

"We look after our own here kid, no one will blab." Fumio said with a smile. "Just make sure you cover your tail when cooking, wouldn't want any hair in the food." She teased.

"Hey, I may be half cow but I'm still a cook!" She cried out with a huff and a hint of a smile.

"See, I told you they would be cool with it Ikumi." Soma said with a smile. "Now you don't have to worry about skinny jeans." He teased.

"Yeah...I guess so, or at least in here." She said with a smile as she leaned against him.

"Does this mean I can pet your tail again?"

"Just for a bit, it's sensitive." She said with a blush.

"No problem, I'll be careful." She said with a smile as she began to pet it.

(Later)

"What do you mean you told the headmaster Dad?!"

"I mean I told him." He said, his face on her laptop. "I decided that if you really want to go to school in your condition your place is secured, so to avoid any incidents blowing out of proportion I informed the headmaster and made it clear that you were still a student. Thankfully he is a very smart man and fully agreed with me."

"I only wanted a few people to know!"

"And few will, he's agreed to keep quiet, but support you fully if the truth does get out, I pretty much guaranteed that with a very generous donation to the livestock building." He chuckled before clearing his throat. "You're also excused from the dress code as long as you need."

"Dad, I already wore what I wanted before." She sweatdropped. 'Thinking back it's a wonder I never got in trouble.'

"Well I'm just covering all the bases I can, just so you know all you have to do is say the word and you can come ho-"

"I'm not coming home dad! Thank you for everything, really, but I know I can do this, talk to you later, love you." She said before ending the call. She let out a sigh. 'Great, one more person knows, headmaster or not, it still feels embarrassing.' She thought as she imagined if anyone else found out, or god forbid Erina found out. 'I bet she would try to get me to sleep in a barn or something.' She thought bitterly as her ears flicked in annoyance.

Knock knock

"Ikumi? Are you in there?"

"Yeah, I'm in here Soma-kun, come on in."

"With or without pants?" He joked making her blush.

"I have shorts on jerk."

"Alright, alright, I'm coming in." He said as he opened the door with a smile. "You know I never get tired of seeing you flustered like that."

"You jerk." She huffed as she looked away with a blush.

"So...are you ready for tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?"

"School starts again, are you ready to go back and start cooking again?"

"Oh! Well yeah, must have slipped my mind when, I've been on guard keeping an eye on the vent." She remarked looking at the ceiling with a frown.

"You know he won't peak, he's not a pervert." Sighed Soma as he shook his head.

"He crawls around the vents naked, naked!" She cried out. "How does that NOT sound like some pervert?"

"He's not naked, he wears an apron!"

"That's not much better Soma-kun!" She gained a tick-mark. "Do you know how many times I've had to look away because I thought I'd get a peak at his junk?!"

"Well, that th-"

"If you say 'that's part of the fun' I'm going to smack you." She said with a frown. "Look, let's forget about the vent pervert for now, ok?"

"Alright, I was actually gonna ask if you were interested to know the others went out, leaving us completely alone in the dorm."

"Wait… really?" She asked as she perked up.

"Yep, even Granny is gone shopping."

"In that case," She reached down and slid her shorts off before throwing them aside and spread her legs with a grin. "Get on over here."

"Yes ma'am." He said with a grin as he began to take off his pants as well. When he got them off he jumped on her and they started kissing right away.

"I want...I want you Soma-kun~" She said between kisses as she pulled him closer.

"Same to you Ikumi-chan." He grinned while reaching down to squeeze her ass making her shiver. "I was getting excited when I came to tell you, and seeing you in those shorts didn't help."

"I wore them for you, I was hoping for once I could make YOU flustered." She said as his member began to grow erect.

"Sorry, but it'll take more when you're so much easier to tease." He grinned while rubbing around her tail making her gasp.

"T-That's playing dirty Soma-kun, you know that I'm sensitive there!"

"I do? Must have slipped my mind." He chuckled.

"L-Liar!" She moaned as he kept rubbing before kissing her again. "Mmmm." She let out before moving a hand down to rub and grab his dick making him groan. "I can grab your tail too Soma-kun~" She teased as she began to caress it.

"No fair." He mock whined while reaching up to give her breast a squeeze and made milk squirt out. "My my, it seems you forgot to milk yourself again, didn't you Ikumi?"

"I-I only like it when you do it."

"Wow, someone likes being spoiled." He teased before groaning when she gave his dick a harder squeeze.

"What can I say, you have a high maintenance rich girlfriend, I'm used to being spoiled~" She purred while moving closer with the dick near her slit. "Now give this girl her own milk~"

"How can I resist?" He chuckled before he began to push his dick inside her. He hummed as it went in while Ikumi gasped and held onto him. "Wow, already wet? Someone's horny." He teased.

"C-Can you blame me? We've been cock blocked for almost a week and a half, a girl has needs Soma~" She let out with her chest rubbing against his own while letting his dick go all the way in making her hum. "Fuck, feels like the first time and it's still nice and hard."

"And you're still tighter than a fat man's belt." He groaned as he pulled back before thrusting in again. "Ah! But this time I'll be in control." He whispered lustfully.

"You can try, but can you take this cow by the horns?" She asked with a grin as she licked her lips.

"Damn straight." He smirked before pulling back and moved his hips back and forth, grunting from the grip her pussy had as she moaned. "By the time I'm done I'm gonna make you cum just by milking you."

"T-That better be a promise you bastard." She moaned with a grin. "And when I'm done with you you'll never want to leave my side again~"

"Count on it!" He let out before pushing her on her back and moved his hips faster while she moaned in return and he grunted.

"M-More, more, more! Give it all to me Soma-kun!"

"I'll give you every drop Ikumi-chan!"

"Goood!" She cried as her eyes began to glaze over as she felt herself about to climax. "I'm gonna cum! I'm gonna cum!"

"Already? My, it seems like my little cow doesn't have as much stamina as me, huh?" He teased with a grin as he kept thrusting. "Maybe I should slow down so you can catch up."

"Don't you dare!" She cried as she wrapped her arms around him, pulling him close. "Keep moving your hips or else!"

"Right!" He cried before he felt himself about to come. "You sure you want me to cum inside?"

"YES! Don't you dare pull out!" She cried as he frowned.

'I should pull out, we're not nearly ready to be parents!' He thought trying to pull out, but her legs held him in. "Ikumi let go, I don't wanna knock you up!"

"I don't care, I want it, I want it!" She cried, her mind clouded from pleasure and lust.

'Oh no, I can't hold on!' He thought before crying out as his sperm started shooting inside. 'Crap, it went inside her! Please let today be a safe day!'

"Oh god Soma-kun!" She moaned as she began to relax her hold on him. "That was amazing...thank you~"

"Ikumi, please please tell me it's a safe day."

"I….maybe…." She panted as her eyes began to close. "I think so…"

"Hang on, don't go to sleep, that's not a clear answer." He spoke up in a panic. "Do you have some after pills?"

"I don't…..taste weird…." She mumbled as she began to drift off to sleep.

Soma groaned and laid down next to her while pulling the sheets up. 'I'll get her to take something after some rest.'

(Later)

"Oh god….did I really make you…..come inside me?" Groaned Ikumi as she and Soma walked down the road towards the school.

"Yup, which is why I suggest you take a pill or two to be safe."

"Fine, I'll pick some up after class, god I hope I'm not pregnant." She muttered covering her face. 'I don't wanna even imagine what might happen after that.'

"Tiny cow kids? I wonder if they would inherit your cow features?" He wondered as she blushed.

"Shhh! Don't say it out loud like that or someone might hear."

"Oh, right, sorry." He chuckled as they reached the main school building. "Well, see you after class."

"Yeah, see you." She waved as she watched him go and gulped. 'Alright, you can do this. Just keep yourself under control and focus on your cooking.' She thought as she made her way towards class. 'Keep to the back and avoid talking or getting in trouble and I should be fine.'

She reached the class and entered while a few kids looked confused at her 'hat', but paid it no mind. 'Alright, so far so good.' She thought as she made her way to a cooking station at the back of the class. 'Just gotta keep my tail under control and everything should be good.'

"Well well well, what's with the wardrobe change? For once you're not dressed like a slut."

'Oh fantastic.' Thought Ikumi turning to see Erina walking over and glared. "I forgot the biggest pain in the school, I'll give you three guesses what it's not."

"Oh my, is cow girl really talking back to me, what, is your father doing so poorly he's having you wear that hat as advertisement?" She mocked with Ikumi glaring.

"At least I have the goods and have the guts to show, can't say the same to you. You should consider drinking more milk if you wanna ever catch a guy, they might remove that stick you have up your ass."

"Oh please, at least I won't have to deal with back problems for the rest of my life."

"If I do I'll just have Soma rub my back." She smirked with Erina frowning. "After all, that IS what a boyfriend does, you should consider getting one, or maybe you're more of a carpet muncher."

"Hmph, it figures you'd go for such a low class boy, I don't know what else I expected."

"If low class is your definition of a guy who actually cares about me and would do whatever he could to make me feel like I don't need to lie, then sure. Makes me actually pity what you consider high class, guess I know what you'll be in a few years." Smirked Ikumi. "Some high class trophy wife who only knows how to look good while her husband shoves her aside."

"Shut up, in a few years I'll be running this school and when I graduate I plan on taking over." She said with a huff.

"Sure, you can plan that, but I can just imagine the offers you'll get, I give it five years before your wed off with your grandfather receiving a VERY large dowry, don't you agree? And me, why I'll be happy with the perfect guy free to do what I want." She chuckled. "Why don't you go work on what your wedding cake will look like? It'll be your favorite treat for the next thirty years."

"You...you...you uncultured bitch!" Seethed Erina as Hisako marched towards them.

"How dare you insult Erina-sama, if she so pleased she could have you kicked out of here!"

"Oh she could, but that would mean everything I said is spot on. If all she could do is expel students for talking back, then she's not great, she's a spoiled brat who can't stand up for themselves. Is that what your great 'Erina-sama' is? Or can she handle her own battles?"

"Hisako, she is right, I can handle this disgraces chatter, at least I've never lost a shokugeki, Ikumi can't say that, can she?" Erina said with a smug look.

"And yet I'm still around." She threw back while holding her hand up. "If all you're gonna do is waste my time then do it at the end of the day."

"Fine, though take off that hat, it's against the rules." She said with a frown.

"I'll take it off when you take that stick out." She snapped back as the teacher entered the room. 'Ha, I got the last word Erina, take that!'

Erina scowled and turned and walked away while Hisako glared at Ikumi who waved at her innocently. 'This isn't over, not by a long shot.'

'That was a close one.' She thought as she began to focus on the teacher's instructions 'Why did I have the urge to impale her on my horns during that argument?'

As she pondered that she went to get the ingredients for the dish, which was thankfully a mostly meat one.

'Alright, now's my time to shine, time to show her superior is when it comes to meat.' She thought while grabbing a cutting knife. 'Just wish I was wearing my usual top, it's getting warm in here already.' She thought as she wiped her head as she began to cook the meat dish.

'Damn bitch, insulting Erina-sama like that! Well, at least she'll be able to properly beat her now.' Thought Hisako with a smirk. 'By the time class is over she'll be begging for forgiveness.'

'Damn, was it always this hot in here?' Ikumi thought as she kept cooking, the room heating up as everyone was cooking. 'I'm so use to a tiny top I guess I never noticed.' She thought as she looked down at her sweater with a frown. 'Damn it, I wish I could still wear it, stupid brand.'

(Later)

"Alright class, time is up." spoke the teacher. "Time to see how you all did."

'Yes, time to shine!' Thought Ikumi as she watched the teacher slowly begin to make his way towards Erina and her table, sampling each dish and grading them on his way. 'Get ready to eat your words you uptight bitch.'

'Time for another A, when will these classes actually become a challenge for me?' Thought Erina as the teacher bit into her dish and looked like he reached ecstasy.

"Very good Erina, A+!" He said before turning to Ikumi's dish. "Alright, let's see how you did."

"I can assure you that this is the best hot pot you'll ever eat!" She boasted with a smile as he took a bite.

"Mmmm, very good, though there's a bit too much sauce, A-."

"...eh?" She said in confusion as Erina smirked. "A-? For sauce? My dish was just as good as Erina's!"

"Almost, but it had a tad bit too much sauce which slightly distracts the rest of the flavor, but it's very close."

"Really, and the fact no one ever gets the same grade as her in class has nothing to do with that?" She asked with a frown.

"Yes, you just need to try and improve on your work later on." He said, brushing off her question as he walked back to the front of the class.

'I call bullshit, I barely used any sauce in my dish, I bet he gives her a higher grade to make her like him.' She thought while seeing Erina smirking at her and got an idea before walking over to her. "Well if Erina's dish is so much better, than tasting a little myself can't hurt."

"Go ahead, class is pretty much over at this point." He said with a shrug as the students began to wash their dishes and either threw away their remaining dishes or saving them for later.

"Well Erina? Care to let me try some to see if it's actually good enough to force down?"

"Go ahead, if you want to settle your own delusions, then go ahead." She said as she crossed her arms.

"Don't mind if I do." Replied Ikumi before grabbing some meat from the hot pot and bit into it. 'Damn it's good, but it's not that much better than mine!'

"I trust your silence is proof enough."

"It's good...but not that much better than mine, mine was at least an A+!" She said with a frown.

"Yes, a minus that is." Erina said with a scoff. "Really, one wardrobe change and you expect that you can cook me? And you call me the arrogant one."

Ikumi growled while snorting her nostrils with her tail twitching under her pants. 'Damn bitch, I swear to god if she keeps up this attitude I'll gut her like a trout!' She thought as she began to see red.

"Then again I do suppose everyone needs their coping mechanisms for when they lose, and I see we found yours, blaming others for your failures."

"I'd watch what you say." Growled Ikumi gritting her teeth.

"Or what, you'll complain about your sub-par dish again?"

"No, this!" She spoke before tackling Erina down making Hisako gasping with the class turning their attention.

"Ikumi, let go of Erina right now, you are in a lot of trouble young lady!" Called the teacher as he stood up.

"No! I'm done with her attitude!" She yelled while the two girls rolled on the floor.

"That is no reason to attack her though!" He called as he marched towards them.

"Get off me you fat cow, have you gone mad?!"

"I'm mad because I'm sick and tired of your arrogant attitude you uptight bitch!"

"So you attack me you uncultured swine?!" She cried as Hisako got over her shock and raced over to help Erina.

"Unhand Erina-sama!" She cried as she grabbed Ikumi's sweater and tried to pull her off. "Get off of her!"

"Get off!" Growled Ikumi trying to elbow the girl away.

"Alright, alright, break it up, I said break it up!" Called the teacher as he reached them and began to pull them apart as well.

"You think your tongue is so good? Well let's see how good it is when I rip it out!"

"Alright, that is it!" Called the teacher as he managed to pull Ikumi off Erina before she could carry out her threat. "I don't know what's gotten into you but this is unacceptable!"

"What's unacceptable is the fact this pompous bitch gets away talking down on everyone around her over a stupid tongue!" She cried as she tried to charge at Erina again. "I am sick and tired of her getting everything she wants because she can supposedly taste better, what's the point of her tasting something no one else can?!"

"That doesn't excuse starting a fight in my class!"

"Well it's also no excuse to give her a perfect grade when she's not that great!"

"Well I can obviously cook better than you psycho!" She cried as Hisako helped her up.

"Try tasting food with a broken jaw!" She cried as she managed to get out of the teachers grasp before charging at her like an angry bull.

Hisako pushed Erina out of the way and got tackled instead.

"Damn it, someone get security!"

(Later)

"So….you attacked my granddaughter because of a grade?"

"Well….yes." Said Ikumi nervously as she stood in front of Senzaemon. "B-But she also baited me and before I knew what was happening I charged at her."

"Even still, you should know doing something like that is not how you should handle any problems there are between you two." He said with a frown. "I cannot let you off the hook for this so there are two options, one, I could expel you," He said, making her pale and look at him in fear. "Two, I could have you suspended for two weeks and have you do community service for the school for the rest of the semester."

"I'll take the second option!" she spoke up right away.

"Very well, report to the livestock building, you'll be tending to the animals their and cleaning up after them."

"Thank you sir." She said with a quick bow.

"Yes, yes, I'd also recommend enrolling in some anger management classes to avoid further incidents." He advised as she turned and left while he rubbed his beard and inwardly chuckled. 'I'm quite amazed it took someone this long to try that against Erina.'

(Later)

'So this is the livestock building? It kind of looks like one of Dad's buildings.' Thought Ikumi looking at the building and gave a shudder at the memory. "Any robot arms come at me and I'm leaving." She muttered as she walked in. Inside was a massive barn like area that had multiple areas divided out to hold different animals with several large aquarium tanks holding several fish. 'Wow, it's almost like a mini zoo.'

Numerous animals were eating or sleeping with some watching her as she walked past some of the pens. "Hello, is anyone in here? I'm supposed to work here?"

All she got was silent with a nearby cow mooing before eating some hay.

"I guess no one's here… I wonder if that means I can take off my hat, my ears are killing me." she wondered taking it off and sighed with ears stretching out and getting some odd looks from the cows.

"Moo?" one let out.

"Calm down, I ain't a cow, it's just a fuck up at a big factory." She grumbled as she walked towards said cow. 'Now you look kind of tasty, I wonder if I could ask them to let me eat him?'

The cow looked at Ikumi before hearing a yawn and turned it's head making Ikumi turn and see a guy with the basic school uniform walking over yawning and rubbing his eyes.

"Hey, who's there? I was in the middle of a n-I mean feeding the salmon." He asked before seeing her ears and horns. "Huh...neat, anyway what are you doing here?"

"Uh...I came here to tend to the animals for community time." She replied, staying still and saw him nod with his eyes closed again. 'Has he just been napping all day?'

"Cool, just uh, go over to the wall over there and there should be a poster on where everything is and what to feed them, don't kill anything or it'll make me do a lot of paperwork, any questions?"

"Uh-"

"Great, I'll be back to my spot, making sure we have plenty of food for the pigs." He replied awkwardly before walking away. 'Time to get back to my nap~'

'Does he really work here?' She thought with a deadpan. 'For that matter how long has he been keeping watch around here while sleeping?' She thought before shaking her head. 'At least he's too lazy to freak out about my appearance, so that's good, right?'

With that in mind she started to get to work by first getting some food for the chickens. 'Huh, maybe this job won't be to bad.' She thought as she found said bag and grabbed it, unaware of the scanner she passed that began to beep.

The system that got the barcode began to read it as Ikumi went to the chickens and started throwing some feed out for them.

"Alright, eat up you guys, grow nice and big so we can cook you later." She smiled while a few robot arms from the ceiling started to get the instructions from the system, which assumed Ikumi was a cow out of it's pen. "Good chickens, very good, now come a- hey, let me go!" She cried as several arms moved down and made sure to carefully grab her. "Oh no, no no no! I'm not dealing with that crap again!" before she started punching at them and flailed around.

The arms realized this and the computer sent down several more along with a needle with a mild tranquilizer to help 'calm down the angry cow'.

"Let me go you bastard, I am not a cow, I am not a-OW!" She yelled feeling the needle poke her and growled before kicking it away. "I'm a human girl! A human!" She cried as she began to feel drowsy as the arms began to move her towards the cow section. "A hu….man….girlllll…"

She began to feel her eyes close while the cows turned before Ikumi slowly passed out.

(Later)

"Ugh...my head…" Groaned Ikumi as she began to slowly regain consciousness. "Damn arm….my leg's gonna be sore…" She groaned as she tried to stand up only to find herself unable. "Huh? What is going on?" She muttered before realizing what had happened before she passed out. "Oh you've GOT to be fucking with me." She groaned as she looked around to see she was between two cows with her head in a stock, right below a trough of hay. "I am not a fucking cow!" She cried as she pulled her head out, glad that this one was sized for a cow, not her and looked around with a frown. "That's it! I said if it happened I was gone, and I'm doing just that!" She cried as she began to march towards the fence, making sure to put a hand over her ear so the damn machine wouldn't be able to read her tag.

She climbed over it and walked over to the main entrance while spotting the guy from earlier sleeping near the wall. "Hey, I quit! Your damn machine is an asshole, and where's my hat?!"

"Huh, wha?" He said as he woke up from his nap.

"I said where's my hat?"

"I dunno, maybe it got thrown away?" He said with a shrug as she scowled at him.

"Augh, screw it, I'll just head back to the dorm as fast as possible, and you owe me a new hat!" She snapped marching past him as he yawned.

"Sure...whatever you say...zzzz" He said as he went back to sleep.

"Idiot." She muttered angrily as she walked outside, fuming all the while. 'Damn it, I am not a cow, why am I treated like one? This day couldn't get worse.' She thought before thunder boomed across the sky. "...fuck."

(Later)

"Hey guys, do you know where Ikumi is, I couldn't find her after classes ended." Soma asked as he ate his meal with the others.

"I didn't see her anywhere." Spoke Ryoko.

"Maybe she's with her club?" Offered Shun.

"No, I already checked, but she never went there." He said before they heard the front doors burst in. "Hey, is that her? Oi, Ikumi, is that you?"

"Yeah, it's me!" She yelled back before stamping was heard as they turned and saw she was soaking wet and looked angry.

"Ikumi, what happened to you?!" He asked as he stood up and made his way towards her.

"I got drenched outside." She grumbled as she shook her head. "I was also doing community service at the livestock building and the stupid machines thought I was a cow again! And before that I almost got expelled for fighting Erina!"

"You did what?!" Spoke Megumi with shock.

"Now I'm suspended for two weeks and I have to work in that stupid building for the rest of the semester! I-I don't think I can do it!" She cried as she pulled Soma into a hug.

Soma looked at her with concern and held her close as she felt close to breaking down. "It'll be alright Ikumi, I promise."

"But nothings gone right since I became half cow, I got into a fight, I'm no longer sure I'm human, I-I didn't even let you pull out and for all I know I'm fucking pregnant!" She cried as he held her tighter.

"I know it's all so much right now Ikumi-chan, but that's what I'm here for. I'm gonna help you through all this, no matter what happens." He said as he rubbed her back as she sniffed.

"R-Really, do you promise?"

"Cross my heart and hope to die."

"Ok...I'll hold you to that." She said with a smile as he wiped her tears away.

"S-So touching." Cried Yuki wiping at her eyes with a tissue.

"Yeah...wait, did she say she might be pregnant?" Asked Ryoko as they all freeze.

"Uh….yeah." nodded Soma with a nervous chuckle.

"...I shouldn't have said that." Said Ikumi nervously. 'Oh god, are they going to kick us out now, is this how it ends, expelled and possibly pregnant?!'

"Hold up there, did you happen to take any morning after pills?" Asked Fumio.

"I-I don't have any…" She said nervously. "I was going to get some today but I got into the fight and well, I never got to a store."

"Well then I'll help you. You and I are gonna go get some while Yuki gets some dry clothes for you to change into. Don't need to go out there and get a cold." She said with a smile as said girl went to go fetch the clothes. "And if you do end up pregnant, well lets just say you're not the first one in the school, cooking is a passion, so this place is filled with plenty of passionate kids and kids make mistakes sometimes."

"I just hope it's not too late." Muttered Soma.

"Don't worry, I'm sure it will be fine, just try to be careful in the future." Remarked the older woman. "And while we're out I'm getting you some protection, plenty of it."

"T-Thank you." Ikumi said with a large blush. 'Maybe things will be alright after all, maybe I'm freaking out over nothing?'

(Later)

"I need to learn when to shut up." Groaned Ikumi as she left the livestock building. 'Ugh, I don't think I can do this for much longer.'

"Hey Ikumi-chan." Greeted Soma with a smile as he held a boxed lunch. "You just get done?"

"Yeah, luckily that lazy guy managed to make the computers ignore me so I don't have to worry about any more mechanical hands for now." She smiled. "Is that for me?"

"Of course, you need your energy after all, well both of you that is." He chuckled as he patted her belly, making her blush.

"Hey, stop that, I'm not THAT far along yet!" She cried with a blush.

"But you still need your strength, it never hurts to stay full for the two of you so soon. Besides, I've heard girls get weird cravings when they're pregnant so I wanna make sure the baby has a taste for new and exciting dishes." He smiled as she sweatdropped.

"You just want an excuse to have me try your new recipes, don't you?"

"See, it's a win win! Now eat up, this one is fried tuna covered in peanut butter." He said with a grin as she shuddered.

"Soma, I love you, but your new recipes are gonna kill me!"

"But you haven't even tried it out yet." He whined as he held a piece out for her to try. "Come on, you might like it~"

She turned green seeing the piece and gulped. "Please tell me you at least brought tea to wash it down."

"Better, I brought some nice orange juice mixed with wasabi." He said with a grin as she paled. "Now eat up, I made sure to bring seconds."

"Ah...ah….wait, I can't eat anything high in mercury, sorry Soma, I can't eat any of that." She said quickly as she sighed in relief.

"Really? Well then maybe I can make something even better back at the dorm. I've been working on a book of new recipes that come to mind with some I've been dying to try out that I think you and the baby are gonna love." He said with a grin as he took her hand and began to lead her back to the dorm.

"Soma, please, we've talked about this, please hold back on the weird food unless I ask, please?"

"Sorry, I guess I'm getting ahead of myself." He chucked sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head. "So...have you told your dad yet?"

"...no." She admitted looking down. "I never even mentioned me starting a fight with Erina."

"Oh boy, well you might want to tell him before break, better he learns from you then seeing you a few months pregnant and freaking out, right?"

"He'll freak out over me starting a fight with that pompous brat and try to get me to come home. If he finds out about the baby, he might come after you."

"Well, we could just keep it a secret, I haven't been able to contact my dad so it could be a join surprise?" He suggested as she groaned. "Don't worry, no matter what I'll be by your side for everything, I promise."

"I know, because otherwise you'll get the horns." She teased.

"Oh no, someone help me from my scary girlfriend!" He mock cried as she laughed.

"Oh shut up!" She chuckled slapping his back while they headed to the dorm.
