The next day after school, Yuri stopped Tridon while he was walking home with Sayori, "Tridon!" She called out.
"Hey Yuri." Tridon responded, "What's up?"
"I heard that you helped Sayori with some work and I was hoping if you would do the same for me."
"Sure. I'm not doing anything today. Is today fine?"
"Yes!" She quickly answered.
"Cool. What subject is it specifically?"
"Math." A quick zip was heard causing them to look where Sayori was. A silhouette of Sayori was left in a cloud of smoke. They turned around to see Sayori sprinting away.
"That's the fastest I've seen her run." Tridon commented, "Impressive." He turned back to Yuri and sighed, "Well, let's get going."
"Alright..."
The two arrived at Tridon's house and instantly got to work, "So what are we working on today Yuri?"
"1st is Geometric Series."
"Okay. Let me look." Yuri handed Tridon her notebook and he was rather confused, "You know Yuri, geometric series is learned in our junior year. Why are you trying to learn it again?"
"Tridon, did you forget that mid-terms were coming up?"
"Mid-terms?" Tridon stared off to the side and nodded, "Oh right. They are coming up. Aren't they coming up before the school festival?"
"Yes. How could you forget?"
"Because I don't usually worry about it. I always pass with flying colors."
"I wish I could do that. Pass a huge test without needing to study."
"I study for sure. I usually take a week and a half before the exams to study. I cut myself off from technology and I hit the books for that week and a half."
"Wow. I don't think that would be hard for me, but when I study, my brain just refuses to process the information."
"Don't worry. I can give you some tips on how to properly study so that your brain can harness and process the information overload."
"That would be nice..."
"Alright, now geometric series. Well, that isn't too difficult to explain. So, A is your first term. R is the common ratio. N represents the number of terms. You will be finding out how many sums there can be."
"Okay. The first term..." Yuri looked at her formula and nodded, "The first term is 3. The common ratio is 2 and the number of terms is 3."
"Yeah. That means the n-th of the sequence is?"
"25."
"And the sum of n terms is what?"
"45."
"Good. Now what is the infinite sum?"
"Infinity?"
"That's right."
"Oh wow..." Yuri read over the problem they did and her eyes turned into squiggles as she collapsed back onto the couch, "Ouch. This is difficult."
"Don't worry. Math definitely isn't for everyone. It's my worse subject believe it or not. Now, let's continue. There's still much to go over."
After an hour of more studying, Yuri had her face down onto Tridon's coffee table with piles of paper around her. Tridon looked down at her and pat her head.
"Math is hard!" Yuri muffled from the table.
"Like I said. Math isn't for everyone." Yuri sat up and Tridon noticed that her hair was in tatters, "Yuri," Tridon took out a mirror and showed her, "your hair doesn't look all too great.
"Ah!" Yuri snatched the mirror touched her hair, "Tridon. I'm so sorry for looking like this."
"It's alright. Math is stressful."
"May I use your restroom?"
"Sure." Yuri quickly stood up and made her way upstairs, "You remember what door my bathroom is?"
"Yes." She answered. Yuri quickly walked into his bathroom and sighed, "My hair is an absolute mess." Yuri twirled her hair around and blushed, "It's so embarrassing to look like that in front of him."
Tridon sat on his couch remembring back to a conversation he had with Natsuki the week before.
"Tridon, Yuri got a low score on a mock exam." She explained, "She got a pretty bad score in math which got her the low score. Maybe try and help her through and please don't bring it up. You know how she is."
"If I don't figure out her grade, I can't figure out where she is before mid-terms."
In the bathroom, Yuri fixed her hair until she heard a loud pop come from underneath her school uniform. She blushed a bright red while grabbing her chest.
"There's no way my bra could've broken!" She quietly yelled to herself, "The last I checked I was a DD. Could I have gone up!" Yuri looked around for a way out of her situation, "I can't go back out there with them hanging out. He'll think I'm just some... oh lord I don't even wanna think about how he could perceive me!"
Tridon closed his eyes and thought for a second, "For her score to be low and her math score being a main contributor to a low grade, that must mean it must've been in the D's. Maybe even the low C's. I doubt she could get an F."
Yuri looked around and noticed Tridon's hamper, "Maybe," Yuri rummaged through the bag and thought, "he has something that might be able to replace my problem." Yuri eventually took out one of Tridon's compression shirts, "It's his compression shirt. It might be tight, but at least they won't be bouncing all over the place."
Yuri put his shirt on and looked at herself in the mirror, "Hm," Yuri smiled and nodded, "It's not too bad. In fact," Yuri hugged herself and wriggled around, "it feels like he's hugging me." Yuri lifted his shirt and placed in her face until she heard a big rip, "Uh..." She turned around and faced her back to the mirror and saw that the back of his shirt was ripped, "Oh no!"
Tridon looked upstairs and quickly ran. However, he tripped on one of the steps and fell. He rolled down the stairs and was knocked out.
Yuri heard this and ran out of the bathroom. At the top of the stairs, she saw Tridon at the bottom knocked out, "Oh no!" Yuri carefully walked downstairs and checked on him, "Tridon!" She shook him to wake him up, but the shaking caused his shirt to tear more, "Oh no..." Tridon's eyes fluttered open sending a wave of happiness to Yuri, "You're awake!"
"Yeah..." Yuri leaned forward causing the shirt to rip completely revealing Yuri's bare chest, "Huh?" Before Tridon could say anything, Yuri tackled him down.
"Don't look!"
"It's hard to look when you're pressing them in my face!"
"Ah!"
Moments later, Tridon stood outside his guest room and shook his head, "If you needed something to help with that then you could've just asked."
"I'm sorry Tridon." Yuri responded from inside, "I just didn't want you to think of me negatively."
"How could I think negatively of you for something so trivial?"
"I don't know. I was just embarrassed to ask someone I li-." Yuri interrupted herself and slapped her face.
"What was that?"
"Nothing!"
"Oh fine." Tridon checked his phone and sighed, "It's getting pretty late Yuri and you live pretty far."
"I can stay the night if you'd like." Yuri quickly commented.
"I could just drive you home Yuri, but if you're fine with sleeping here again, then I guess it's fine with me." Tridon walked away and called out, "You can settle down in that guest room Yuri."
Yuri burst the guest room and confronted him, "I wanna do it sleepover style!"
"Yuri, we're 18. Saying it like that makes it sound like we're freshmen or even back in middle school." Even as Tridon said this, Yuri held puppy dog eyes along with a pout, "But I really can't say no to that face." Tridon pinched her cheeks and sighed, "Well, you can take my..." She pouted even more and raised an eyebrow, "Yuri, you do know what you're asking for, right?" She nodded with now a determined pout, "Alright."
Later that night, Tridon slept by the edge while Yuri took the spot closer to the wall. Tridon had his back turned to Yuri who stared at his back. Tridon felt Yuri was awake and turned around to meet her eye to eye.
"Yuri..."
"Yes?"
"Did Sayori happen to say what happened the night of the incident?"
"She said that you two slept in the same bed similar to how we are now. That's about it." Yuri took one look at Tridon and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"Well, Sayori and I are used to sleeping together. We've done it before. But with someone I've only known for a month is kinda..."
"Weird?"
"I wouldn't say weird. Weird is something more derogatory. I would say awkward. Don't get me wrong, I'm fine, but for it to be this early in our relationship. We've barely known each other."
"I guess the same could be said about the other 2." Yuri added, "Monika and Natsuki that is."
Tridon sighed and shifted his body to stare at the ceiling, "Now that's odd. One guy in a club full of only girls and yet..."
"You haven't made a move with any of us despite already somewhat confessing."
"Yeah." Tridon looked over to Yuri and shook his head, "I don't know what to do. At first I had sights on Monika alone, but the more I've spent time with all of you, the more I fell for the rest of you."
"Tridon," Yuri started warmly, "you don't have to choose now." Yuri looked over at Tridon and leaned on her hand, "You're right. You haven't properly gotten to know us."
"There will be a time where I'l have to choose though." Tridon closed his eyes and sighed, "I'm afraid for when that day comes." Tridon felt Yuri moved his face to meet hers, "Yuri?" He opened his eyes to see Yuri smiling warmly at her.
"That time will come and you'll know when it comes. Just rest your head. You'll know who you want when that time comes."
"But..." Yuri pressed her fingers to stop Tridon from talking.
"No. Sleep Tridon. Sleep."
The two stared into each others eyes and inched closer. The two shut their eyes as their lips inch closer. However, instead of their lips smashing together, their foreheads collided with one another.
"That didn't go how I'd hoped." Yuri groaned while rubbing her forehead. She eventually felt lips on her forehead and she looked up to see Tridon kissing her forehead, "T-Tridon..."
Tridon moved from her head and smiled at her, "Did that help?"
"Y-Yeah..."
"Alright, now one more question. C or D?"
"H-Huh?!"
"I was thinking maybe a C, but D makes more sense. I doubt that it was an F. That just seems too obscure."
"T-Tridon!"
"What?!"
"You can't talk about a girl's breasts like that!" Yuri hopped up and covered her breasts while yelling, "You're a horndog!"
"What? No!" Tridon retorted, "I meant the grade you got on your practice test!"
"O-Oh. That's what you meant..."
"Oh my god..." Tridon rubbed his head and said, "You know what? Let's talk about when we walk to school tomorrow."
"Right..."
Once Tridon fell asleep, Yuri laid next to him grabbing her head, "Why did I think he was talking about my boobs! Why would I think he would be a horndog?! Who says horndog?!"
A/N: This is a shorter chapter as will the next Study Date chapter. I'm not focusing more on the actual subject and focusing more on the relationship build between Tridon and the girls he's on the study date with. So enjoy these shorter chapters on Tridon helping the girls learn some things.
