With the "couple" out of the way. Natsuki brought her attention back to me again.
"So! Where did we leave off?"
She was staring at me, her bright eyes waiting for an answer.
Looks like she has forgot about asking me why I didn't read.
Might as well take the opportunity...
If I did tell her that Monika slept over in my house...
In the same bed...
Cuddling...
Almost seeing each other naked...
Yeah... Saying any of that isn't a good idea.
Nor is saying that Monika slept over in my house.
Now to question at hand.
I placed my hand on my chin, trying to remember where we last left off.
"Hmm... If I remember correctly, we left off at the part where Minori was 'getting stuck in a pickle'."
Natsuki cringed at what I said.
Never thought I would ever see that.
"What?"
"Eugh... 'Getting stuck in a pickle'? Really Val?"
"Hey, I don't what happens next! Besides, I like using idioms."
"Well, I hate idioms. Why can't people talk to each other without being fancy?"
"Maybe, because they want to be seen as educated individuals."
"Well, 'educated individuals' are arrogant assholes!"
I raised an eyebrow.
"Is that so? Then, how about Yuri? Yuri is a girl that uses those big words and idioms as well. And I see her as an 'educated individual'. Does that mean she's an asshole too?" I said, a bit annoyed.
"No! I didn't mean that! I meant people who use big words to confuse people and control them! I hate those types of peoples with a passion!"
I nodded understanding.
"Huh. I see. I bet you hate everything, then." I muttered, trying to find the page where we left off at.
She glared at me.
"Yeah! Like you! Why didn't you read last night?! What were you doing that was so important, huh?!"
I looked at back her with a mild glare as well.
She remembered!
Fuck! What should I do?!
She did say she hates me, so I can take advantage of that...
It'll be the perfect distraction!
I knew she was joking about hating me, but I needed to diffuse the tension from before.
It never hurts to be safe. I need to make sure she forgets about the question completely...
I don't know why, but I know for a fact that all Hell breaks loose if I tell her why I really didn't read.
"It's none of your business, alright?" I growled.
"It is! You said that you would read it!"
I turned my glare away from her and closed the manga. I stood up and began to get up to leave.
"Whatever. If you hate me, then we have no reason to be near each other."
With the book at hand I started to walk away.
"Wh-what? Wait! Where are you going?! Don't go!"
I stopped at my tracks and turned my head to speak.
"Why? Don't you hate me?"
"No! I don't! I was just joking!" She yelled as she stood up to catch up with me.
I should stop here. But I can't take any chances!
I need to press forward!
I turned my body to face her.
"Eh, sure you were... You behave as if you do hate me, and I was waiting for you to confirm it. And guess what? You did! You confirmed that you hated me!"
"No! I-I don't! I don't hate you, I swear! I'm sorry! Please don't go!"
Out of the corners of her eyes, I can see tears starting to form. Her lips were quivering and it was a manner of seconds that she would burst...
Fuck!
I'm taking this too far! I'm pretty damn sure she's forgotten about the question by now!
Argh! Why do I have such a bad feeling, if she does know what I did with Monika?!
I sighed heavily and rubbed my face, completely burned out from my train of thought and the stress I'm going through.
"Natsuki. I knew you were joking..."
"W-wh-what? Y-you knew?"
"Yeah... I knew. I was just messing with you, but I took it a bit too far..."
I expected her to get angry for doing that to her.
All Natsuki did instead, was hang her head down.
"Oh... y-you knew..." Was all she muttered out, as she was looking down at the floor.
Natsuki was completely stoic, there was no emotion on her face or posture.
This is the right choice right...? Cause, it sure as hell doesn't feel like it!
All of a sudden, she started to sniffle and shake.
My eyes widened.
Oh fuck!
I closed the distance between us and clutched her shoulders.
I looked down at her and hoped that she wasn't going to break down.
"God, Natsuki please don't cry! I'm sorry!"
She started to her rub her eyes, in an effort to try to stop the tears from falling out.
But they falling like a waterfall...
Shit!
"Natsuki, please look at me! I'm sorry!"
She started whimpering, trying to hold it steady, but it was quickly failing.
Was this really necessary? What if I told the truth instead?!
No! I can't tell her the truth! There's an aura of darkness around it! I can feel it!
Then, what should I do now? If this was all for the greater good, then how come I don't know what to do next!
I gently shake Natsuki's shoulders.
"Natsuki-"
I couldn't help but stare at her eyes.
Her eyes were now muddled with tears, weak and tormented. It was a deep contrast to being so jovial and strong...
She took a look at me before closing her eyes, turning her face away from me.
Natsuki pushed me out of the way and ran towards the exit of the classroom.
"Natsuki!"
Fuck!
I chased after her, hastily opening the door to keep up with her.
I ignored all the murmurs behind me. I didn't have a care in the world about what they had to say about me.
Once I made it outside the classroom, I searched frantically for her; my eyes scanning every meticulous detail there is.
But my ears picked up her distinct wailing.
I turned to my side to see her in the fetal position crying. Her small figure emphasized how much of a wounded soul she is.
Right decision? My ass. Things couldn't be this bad if I told her the truth...
I kneeled down.
"Natsuki... don't cry, I'm sorry. I'll do anything! I swear, just please stop crying!"
She didn't budge from her position, she kept crying and ignored me.
I placed the manga I had with me right next to her, and picked up her chin.
Her face was red from all the crying and the tears wouldn't stop flowing.
Her small body wouldn't stop shaking from all the emotions she was feeling...
I leaned in, putting my forehead against hers.
Somehow, this was able to calm her down.
Slowly, but surely, she relaxed.
As a reward, I kissed her forehead once she was able to calm down completely.
I caressed her cheek with my left hand, while leaning on her forehead.
"I shouldn't have taken it too far. I know it was mean... That's why I'm sorry. I'll do anything... Anything to make you happy again... Just say what you desire, Natsuki." I sweetly whispered.
Natsuki was still unresponsive, her face was still partially covered by her legs and she was still looking away from me, instead she was looking at the floor.
What should I do...?
I didn't use my mind to think out my next actions.
I sat right besides her and got my arms under her whole body, swooping her off her floor and onto my arms.
Once I got her in my arms, I placed her on my lap. Each of her legs on each side my body.
She was directly facing me, on top my lap.
She was rubbing her eyes still, trying to stop another burst of tears coming.
I move her arms that were covering her eyes, and brought them down.
I tenderly stared into her eyes, her eyes still somewhat muddled from before...
I then brought her into a hug.
I raised myself to her ear.
"Natsuki... Don't cry. Like I said... I'll do anything for you. Just say the word." I whispered into her ear.
She pulled away from the hug and I looked straight into her eyes.
I can see the life in her pink eyes starting to return.
I knew she's back with vengeance.
"A-Anything?" She muttered.
"Yes. Anything." I assured.
What happened next was so quick.
I flinched as I felt my head get knocked back onto the wall.
I tried to yelp from the pain, but it was overshadowed by a feeling of euphoria.
I don't understand why I felt so alive all of a sudden...
My lips had extra weight on it, but it was tasting a sweet taste... It's as if was sugar...
Cupcakes?
Before I can brood on it more, the taste escaped me.
Natsuki pulled away from me, looking down in shame.
Wait, a minute...
Did Natsuki just...
Kiss me?!
Did she?!
"Wh-what happened?" I asked in confusion.
"I-I... I kissed you..." Natsuki confessed.
She did!
"Y-you did?" I said in denial.
She meekly nodded, still looking away from me.
That was her lips?!
It tasted so good...
So sweet!
So creamy!
So divine!
I want more!
I need it!
I. Want. More.
"I'm so sorry, Val... I just felt desperate for some reason... It was a strange feeling... I felt a rush of obsession that I couldn't stop..."
I ignored what she had to say.
I stared at her lecherously, readying myself to strike at her.
"Val...? Why are you looking at me lik-"
I ram my lips onto hers, relishing the sweet taste of her lips.
It tastes like cupcakes! Delicious!
Natsuki gave signs of surprise, giving muffled "Mmphs" while our lips were connected.
Ultimately, she fell and enjoyed the taste, giving small moans on how enjoyed this.
We break away once we ran out of breath.
"T-that was amazing, Val... It's so much better than in manga..."
I smirk, feeling confident.
"Oh, really now? So that's what you had in that covered book, back in the Literature Club?"
Her eyes looked around frantically, trying to dissuade me from questioning her more.
"Eh? Wh-what are you talking about?!"
"Your 'stash' back at the club. Don't play dumb, Nat..."
She avoids my gaze and looks at the floor.
"I-I don't know what you're talking about."
"Nat..."
"Alright! Alright! Fine! You caught me!" She crossed her arms.
"That I did, what did you have in there?"
"It's... It's..."
"Tell me. Come on... I want to know."
She sighs.
"It's... a Ecchi manga... It's a bit um... explicit... In fact, I don't think it's even Ecchi. I think it's hent-"
I arched an eyebrow.
I have so many questions.
"What's Ecchi? And how is it explicit? And how is it not explicit?"
She glares at me.
"Since you're so curious, why don't you look it up, huh? Oh yeah, while you're at it, look up 'hentai' too!"
I didn't flinch from her comeback. Instead, I smirked devilishly.
"I don't know, why don't you get off my lap?"
I knew I caught her off-guard.
God! That feels so good to do!
Her posture weakened as she was taken aback. Her mouth was agape and she seemed conflicted.
She hung her head down, her hair taking up most of my vision.
I couldn't see her face, as she was looking down. But it was red enough to glow and be visible.
"I-I... No! I don't want to! I like... sitting on your lap... even if there is something poking my butt... And whatever it is, I gotta say it's..."
My smirk turned to a smile when she said likes sitting on my lap.
But, that smile escaped me when she said 'something poking her butt'.
Wait a minute!
Oh, no...
Did she just compliment my-
Natsuki starts to grind my crotch with a strange sense of curiousity.
"Hmm... Wow... It feels nice and so... warm..."
"Uh... Natsuki can you stop?" I asked meekly.
She didn't stop however, instead she started to grind on it a bit more, causing my eyes to bulge out.
"Mmm... Wow... It's actually pretty-"
Enough of this.
"Natsuki. That's enough." I interrupted.
I grabbed her by the hips to pull her off me.
To my surprise she holds my hands in place.
"Aah! Yes, Val! Grab my hips!" She moaned.
Her moan made me skip a beat and it was turning me on.
She started grind with more passion, her soft butt vigorously grinding on my-
Gyah! I-I can't hold on to my sanity much longer!
But, it feels amazing...
I gritted my teeth in an effort to not divulge into what Natsuki and I probably wanted.
My breathing was very erratic. There was heavy and light breathing mixed in to keep me conscious.
"N-Natsuki, get off of me..." I muttered weakly, trying my best to not lose myself to the pleasure.
She was incredibly reluctant to get off of my lap, as she proved it by wrapping her arms
"Awww... but come on, Val! I want to feel more! Don't you want more?"
My heart skipped a beat and I almost choked on my own saliva.
I was fighting within myself to not give in to her demands.
This is ultimately going to lead to sex.
I can't allow that to happen!
Focusing on getting Natsuki off my lap, I had to put a little "elbow-grease" into moving away from my crotch and placing her right next to me.
She wasn't fazed by how I moved there.
She cutely crawled up to my lap and rested her head on it. She also gave me a little pout.
"Awww! Don't be like thattt!"
Her cute charm and looks made me rethink my choice.
I never thought that Natsuki could be a thot...
But she's so cute!
And, I can't resist for long!
I gave Natsuki, a soft but warning glare.
"Uh, uh. I don't think so, Natsuki."
Her eyes were a bit off, her usual hot-pink pupils now looked a bit... darker...
Either way, she gave a whimper, clearly disappointed in my actions.
"Jeez, Val. You're such a spoilsport..."
"Yeah, that I am."
"Hey... if I can't feel it with my butt, can I at least, you know... Touch it?"
What the hell?!
I looked at her, completely bewildered by what she said.
"What?!"
She rolled her eyes in a adorable manner.
"Can I..."
She brings a finger up to my crotch.
"Touch this?"
She pokes it with her finger.
I jolt from her boldness to touch my rod. I reeled away from her, shifting my weight to a side, so I can have some personal space.
"No! God, no! What's with you?!"
She crawls up to me again and forcibly pushing my legs down with frightening strength. After that, she laid her head and playfully rolled it around my lap.
"I don't knowww... I just wanna play with that stick of yours! It looks soooo fun to play with!"
She's clearly turned on and isn't thinking rationally.
God, what a thot.
"You. Can't. Touch. It." I carefully explained to her.
She moaned.
"Awwww! Okay, I won't touch it. But..."
She slowly traces my lap with her hand, her warm touch was making me feel aroused...
"I want to..."
Her hand lunged towards my pant's zipper and pulled it.
"See it!"
I immediately cover my crotch from her.
"Ah! Hey! Natsuki, what the Hell is wrong with you!"
She licks my hands in effort to get my hands away from my crotch. I recoiled in surprise, but still managed to cover my crotch.
Holy shit! She gets really playful when she's turned on!
A small blush covers her face.
"Nothing's wrong with me, Vally! I'm just a curious little girl! Now open up!"
She rips my hands out to what I was covering.
FUCK! I'm so screwed! How did it come to this?!
"Ooooh! You're wearing boxers! This makes it easier to see!"
"Argh! Natsuki! Stop it! This is your last warning!" I warned trying to cover it up. Natsuki however, was somehow a lot faster and stronger in taking out my covered crotch.
"OwO... What's this...?"
She pokes it directly.
THAT'S IT.
I grab Natsuki by her shoulders and pinned her to the ground, by holding her wrists.
Natsuki didn't show much care to the situation, she just playfully rolled her eyes.
"Wow, Val... I just wanted to see your pee-pee."
I shake my head at her.
"No. That is something you aren't going to see, okay?"
"Awwww! But, why noooot?"
"Well, first off, we're in public! People could catch us being all touchy-feely!"
"So?"
"We'll get in trouble!"
"So?"
"We might get suspended!"
"So?"
"Argh! Anyway, secondly, it's taboo for to touch other people's private parts! And third, we aren't even a couple! So we can't do this in private, either!"
"Oooh. So... when can we do it? I wanna play with it again!"
"Never, Natsuki!"
"Plweease?! Can I play with it later?"
"No! Like I said, we aren't a couple!"
Her playful smile tarnished to a frown. Her slightly darkened pink eyes turned brighter.
"Oh... right..."
There was an awkward silence between us. We looked away from each other.
To make it even more awkward, I was on top of her.
"Uh... I should get off..." I said, letting go of her wrists.
"You should..."
We both looked away from each other.
I need to break the ice.
"Now, can you tell me why you kissed me?"
"I don't want to talk about it..." Natsuki answered.
"Why not?"
"Because, I don't know how I feel towards you..."
I looked at her, confused.
"What do you mean, Nat?"
"I said, I don't want to talk about it!" She glared at me, confirming that she's back to normal. "How about this? Why did you kiss me back?!"
My eyes widened at her question.
"I..."
Why did I even do that?
"Exactly..."
"Look... Y-you said that you got desperate... Before I kissed you again... Why?"
She closed her eyes and let out a sigh.
She opens them again.
"You aren't going let go of this now, are you?"
"No."
"Fine. The reason why I got desperate is because I didn't want to lose you."
"What? I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere..."
"I meant after the festival at Monday... There's two girls that like you, Val. I mean not as friends, but as you know... something more... Maybe as... lovers."
This is so much to process...
Who are the other two girls that like me that way?
Sayori is obviously with Tom...
Yuri probably sees me as friend... Even though I kissed her in sleep. She's going to reject me if I say that I liked her...
Monika and I are just best friends, nothing more. I don't think anything is going to happen between us...
Who might they be, then?
"R-really? I didn't know..."
"Yeah... There's another girl who likes you like that too..."
"Huh? Who is it?"
Tears started threaten Natsuki's eyes once more.
"She's me you idiot! I like you! I like you idiot!"
I looked at her in disbelief.
"You... like me?"
"Yeah! I do! I mean who wouldn't? You treat everyone with care and help them feel good about themselves! You know how to treat a girl right, and let them feel comfortable with you! That's why I like you!"
"Oh... how long have you liked for?"
She sighed again.
"This is a long one Val... Do you really want to know?"
"Yeah. I do."
"Fine. To start, I had a small crush on you, when you first transferred here... My friends in English 12 at first period wouldn't stop talking about you... So I went out my way to ditch my friends and try to find you at lunch..."
"Wait. You were checking me out in lunch, during my first day? That's a little... creepy. No offense."
"Hey! Don't make me feel bad about it! I wanted to see for myself if you were a hunk everyone says you were... Anyway, that's where I had a crush on you. I thought you had a girlfriend already, so I decided this keep this crush to myself... and crush it down. Uh, no pun intended."
Natsuki sighed dreamily.
"When you came to Literature Club with Tommy, I panicked... I never thought that I would see you here in the club. So I had to wing it, and act 'normal'. I knew that you didn't have a girlfriend when Monika hugged you, or when you patted her head at that day... I couldn't believe that you weren't taken!"
"Yeah... I didn't know what to do there... it was all pretty awkward..."
"Do you remember how you first acted towards me?"
"Yeah, I did. I was actually a bit annoyed by you."
"Eh?!"
Natsuki looked offended, she leaned in with a glare.
"Well about now?!"
I put my hands up in calming fashion.
"N-No! Not at all, heheh. I didn't know you then, that's why! I didn't you know were actually a sweet girl!"
"That's what I wanted to hear. I was really, really happy when you actually liked my cupcakes..."
"It was that big of a impression?"
"Mhm! The boy of any girl's dreams, complimenting your cooking is something you should happy about!"
She paused.
"Anyway Val, remember about the fight I had with Yuri, two days ago?"
"Yeah, I do."
"You didn't really pick a side, instead you chose both of our sides... It was there that I knew that it wasn't a small crush. You defended each of us and pointed out our... uh..."
"Faults?"
"Faults! Yeah, sure. It was there, I needed to find a way to make you mine... So, I baked cookies for you, me, and Sayori. I had to show that I cared about you, by giving yours and mine chocolate chips."
"I remember that... My gosh, that cookie was soo good..."
"R-really? Why didn't you say so? I could've made more for you!"
"I was going to say that, until you said that I had to go shopping with you today."
"Right! So on top of that cookie, I wanted you to come with me to shop!"
"Hey, didn't you lie about that?"
"Hehehe! I did! My plan was to make you fall to the pressure and not prove me wrong, in front of everyone!"
"Wow... You're one evil little woman."
I scratched her head.
She enjoyed it by showing her distinctive smile, the one with her fang pointing outwards.
"Why, thank you! Yeah, when I said that, I never thought Yuri also had a something planned as well. She said that you had to go bookstore with her..."
She paused looking away.
"Um, I don't want to be nosy but... was that true?"
I shook my head.
"No! Not at all! I never heard her mention anything about the bookstore!"
"Sh-she lied, too?! Uuuuu! Gah, anyway, remember when we had to read that?"
She pointed to the issue of Parfait Girls on my left.
"Yeah, I was sore as Hell! It hurt when you forced me to sit down! Why did you even get so angry there?"
"Well, I kissed you on the cheek, when you found issue 13... But you friend-zoned me. I felt... hurt. And I got angry from that. Not to mention, I hate being hurt."
"Sorry..."
"But, your definition of friends is pretty weird, though... We had a tickle fight that is borderline couple-like..."
"I-I know. I never had any female friends when I got older, so I don't know how to act girls..."
"Oh... But, I saw something in you that gave me hope to continue falling for you... There was something in your eyes after the tickle fight. You wanted something more... It was there that I realized that this wasn't just ordinary crush... And I was more than happy to give it to you, but Monika interrupted us."
"Yeah, I got a little scared when she caught us."
"Right? I got scared too! But, at that point, I thought it was now or never! So, I had to get a bit assertive towards her and had to push her aside."
"Amen to that!"
"Soo yeah... That basically sums up how I fell in lo- I mean liked you."
Her slip-up was really obvious.
"Wait, did you say love?"
She was flustered by this.
"Wha-? No! I didn't... I don't love you."
She gritted her teeth, like as if she was in pain.
"Natsuki... Why are you lying?"
"Because of two reasons..."
She looks away from me.
I don't think you even love me... I mean, I don't blame you really. I'm short, I have small boobs, and I am almost always irritated... Yuri and Monika are taller, they got big boobs, and they probably have a better personality than me..."
"You're right."
"Wha-?" She looks up to me in disbelief.
"They are taller than you, and they do have uh... bigger goods than you, but that doesn't mean anything..."
"Yeah... It does... every guy wants a girlfriend with big thighs, ass, and boobs... I don't have any of that..."
I felt my face flare up.
"A-about your butt..."
"What? What about my butt? I know it's pretty-"
"It's pretty big..." I finished.
Oh, God... I think I'm gonna faint...
Natsuki's face was redder than a tomato.
"Eh?! M-my butt? You think it's... big?"
I look away in complete embarrassment.
"Yeah... When you uh... grinded on me? I felt your butt on my 'you know what'... It felt... uh, great..."
She wasn't satisfied, instead she was confused.
"So...?"
"It's big..."
"And...?"
Fuck my life!
"Damn it, Natsuki! You do need me to spell it out for you?! You have a nice ass! It's big and plump! Just the way I like it!" I yelled with a red face.
"Oooh..."
Natsuki covered her face.
"I didn't know you liked my butt..."
"Well, the more you know, Mrs. Worldwide!
"But, I thought my butt was pretty small..."
"No, it isn't! Your butt is thick with an extra c! Gah! Stop doubting yourself! I like your ass the way it is, alright?!"
"Oh... That really makes a girl happy... Being complimented for their body... Especially if they're unhappy with it..."
"Finally!"
"Jeez, Val! Why are you so mad?!"
"I don't like talking about the female's body! Every body is beautiful in their own right!"
"You don't talk about a girl's butt or their tits?"
"No! My friends never talk about that! We talk about everything else, but that!"
"Oooh..."
I can't take this anymore.
"Look, can we stop talking about the female body?"
She smiled devilishly.
"Give me one more compliment about my butt, then we'll stop!"
"I-I don't want to!
"Do it! Or we'll keep talking about this!"
"Okay! Fine! Your butt is something I really want to touch and grope, alright?!"
Natsuki's face went red again.
"R-really?"
"Yes! Now can we please move on?!"
"No problem! How about my tits?!"
"Aaagh! What?!"
"Just this one part, pleaseeee?!"
"No!"
"Please?"
"No!"
"Pleasse? Pleasee?"
For the love of God, just end my life right now!
"Alright! Fine! Although your boobs are small, that doesn't mean that I don't like them! They seem to be perky and probably can grow if they are touched regularly!" I said with immense difficulty.
Natsuki gave a squeal of joy.
She was shaking with happiness, until she looked at me with skeptical look.
"Wait a minute, how do you know that?"
"I was forced to take Sex Ed in my late elementary school years. We were divided into boys and girls. Each gender has to watch their own counter-part's video, in order to get a better other understanding of each other. And might I say, it went horribly..."
"Oh. So if I touch myself, does that mean my boobs will get bigger?"
I buried my face into my hands, unable to cope with how "weird" the situation was.
"Yeah! Sure! We'll go with that!" I said while covering my face.
"Okay! Okay! We'll move on. Do you like me for who I am?"
"What? Like your personality and how you behave?"
"Y-yeah..."
"Hmm... I do. I do like how you behave. Natsuki, I admire your strong spirit. Your sharp tongue, inability to accept failure, and your skill to speak your mind really impresses me. In fact, I idolize you for it. It's a beautiful thing you have, Natsuki."
Natsuki was completely baffled from what I said.
She was grinning proudly to my compliments, and from the looks of it, she couldn't stop grinning.
"Val... You really know how to make a girl feel alive, huh?"
"Hey, what can I say. I know my way with words... Anyway, what's the second reason, eh?"
"Oh..." Her grin fell to a small frown.
This isn't good.
"Natsuki? Is there something wrong?"
"Yeah... there is. The second reason why you wouldn't want to be with me is my dad..."
My eyes widened in fear.
"Your... dad?! What does he do to you?!"
"Val, calm down. He doesn't do anything to me! That's the problem! He's just really, really uncaring sometimes... He spends most of his free time mourning Mama..."
I scooted closer to and brought her into a hug.
"Oh my God... I'm so sorry..." I said, running my hand down her back.
"It's okay, Val... I learned to accept my Mama's death a long time ago... That's why I'm happy to be alive. But sometimes, I worry about my dad a lot... He doesn't know when to let go and move on... And because of that, he's really overprotective of me when I'm around other people, even when I'm with my closest friends!"
"So if I ever see your dad, then..."
"Yeah, my dad is going to freak out... And I'm scared if he does... When he does freaks out, he locks himself up and tries to calm down... It takes a while for him to calm down..."
"Hey, Nat. Let me speak to your father, then. Maybe I can convince him to let go."
"What?! He won't listen to anyone! He even hired a therapist once, and my dad never listened to him or took the medication properly!"
I placed arm around her back and brought her close.
"Natsuki, let me tell you something. When my great-uncle died, my dad was a mess. He didn't eat, sleep, or talk to anyone. My dad was his favorite nephew, and he couldn't let go of his death. No one in my family or friends could get him out of that state, except me. I was able to convince him, to move on and accept it. And Natsuki, my dad is a really, really stubborn man. All I am asking is a chance. I can maybe help him, okay?"
"..."
Natsuki was completely silent, debating whether or not to give me a chance.
"Alright... fine. My dad comes home around 7... So after we are done shopping, I'll take you home with me..."
"Thank you, Natsuki."
"Just... please help him... I'm scared for him..."
"I will, don't you worry."
The first bell rang, meaning we had a few minutes left until the period ends.
"Wow! How long have we been out here?" I asked.
"It looks like, a while. Hey, Val..."
"Hmm?"
"Since you wanna help my dad, does that mean you want to be with me?"
I smiled bitter-sweetly.
I am still not sure.
"Nat, I like you for your personality and body as well. Don't forget that, but just give me time, alright? I'll get back to you on it."
She smiled back, her fang poking out.
"Okay! Not a problem! Besides, I think I would feel a bit off, we became a couple now..."
"Yeah! My thoughts exactly!"
I waved her to come inside.
"Wait! C-can we... you know..."
Natsuki looked away from me with growing red face.
"What? Do what?"
"Kiss...? One more time, before we go? Please?"
I shrugged.
"Um... Sure? C'mere."
I walk up to her and she pushes herself against the wall.
Here goes...
I look to her pink eyes.
They were dilated. She was nervous.
I was nervous too.
But that didn't matter. I was brave as well.
And so was she.
I moved my face closer and closer hers.
She parts her mouth.
And I part mine.
We heard someone take a deep breath of air to our side...
But we didn't care.
I felt her hot breath on my mouth as we-
"EEEEEEEE! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! THEY ABOUT TO KISS! AAAAAAHHH! YESSSS! TOM GET OUT HERE NOOOW!" Sayori fan-girled.
"Oh, no! Fuck!" Was all we heard inside the classroom.
We both back off, completely mortified that Sayori ruined our moment.
"Where?!" Tom came outside with both our bags.
"Awww! You missed it! They were so close too!" Sayori exclaimed, as she jumped in place.
"I'm so sorry." I whispered to Natsuki.
"It's okay. I'm going to have to speak about Sayori about this..." She whispered back.
"Heh, you do that."
Tom gives us our bags and goes to Sayori to calm her down.
I pick up the manga issue on the floor and offered it to her.
"Val, do me a favor and read that? For me, please?"
I smile at her, she was no longer using threats to coerce me read. She was genuinely asking me to read, for her.
I happily obliged.
"Not a problem, Natsuki. I'm going to binge it during lunch."
She giggled.
"Tee hee! You better! Bye, Val! See you at the Club!"
"See you!"
And we both walk our separate ways.
AN: Woo! This is what happens if you don't experience a writers block in a chapter! Earlier release dates or a surprise like these! Next chapter will be centered around Yuri or Monika. And also, I'm sorry for those who expected some Sayori and Tom fluff. I couldn't find a way to incorporate it into the chapter, without making it lose focus. Anyway, time to respond to reviews.
Remiboi, I think this your longest one yet. Holy upjesus! To start off, yes the classes are going to be different through out the day. And how'd you know that the next chapter was going to be Phys Ed class?
Frank or Val is a man with a lot of hidden self conflict. Just putting it out there.
I enjoyed making the fluff between all the girls and the conflict between them all, too. It was pretty fun to do. And that feeling when your homies really did to ya... Yeah, it really hurts. James and Gabe did not want anything to do with that, they knew Val was fucked. They would be mauled alive if they tried to intervene, lmao.
It isn't his "beast" talking really. To clarify, his "beast" is a part of Val. I forgot to mention that the beast is actually him when he's completely turned on. Him wanting to stay is actually on him. He's a lost cause until somebody, preferably a guy in a mask comes to help in later on... I realized that I made a mistake on the nickname, you're right. It should be Sai, not Sy. I'll fix that soon.
These thots, dude. Sometimes they be pulling the wildest shit to get our boy. Monika did notice, she was just busy talking about the assighment.. Don't worry. *insert evil laugh*
...
I'm not doing that again, I'm sorry. Anyway, Val did point out the hypocrisy Yuri puts up. He is confused by it. The reason why Yuri said that is because she needed a cover-up for her being jealous. The war the girls are gonna get will boil in the club, most likely. Or in the beach...
Yo, but Fortnite though? I got a victory royale today, because of the fucking guided missile, like seriously that shit's fucking broken. Shit is basically the predator missile from MW2. And word? Everyone with IOS in school plays it, even some teachers, much to my surprise play the game. I was like HOLY SHIT! TEACHERS ARE PLAYING AS WELL?!
Sorry about that, anyway, Gabe and James have no interest in the girls, unfortunately. They're the additional wingmen to Val's relationships with the two.
Smh, these girls don't know shitpost like the boys do.
I'm trying to put the Middle school memory part in the story, give Val or Frank a little backstory, to why he wants to be a Bachelor.
And also, I'm gonna make Frank ask about the Harem part in the club, if I haven't typed it so already. Yuri's problem of cutting can be assumed alleviated, as she is distracted by Val. More on that soon. I'm going to try give everyone a happy ending, until final confrontation between Val, Frank or whatever and Monika.
Thanks for massive review and encouragement. In turn, I encourage you to do the same with your reviews! Thank you!
P.S: Nice profile pic, fam.
Storm, Maybe... Maybe in the beach chapter, heheh...
TheSonOfSovietUnion, Love your name, btw. It goes without saying, this fanfic is going require some thinking to comprehend some actions and dialogue, ya know? You'll find out if Val or Frank will be with Monika in one of the endings. Thanks for liking the shenanigans and the reactions!
P.S: Indeed she is. Indeed.
Thunderant01162, I'm sorry that there isn't any Monika fluff in this chapter though. And come to think of it, Sayori does seem to be annoying, but she is the comical relief. She may or may not be depressed.
Lemons, no u.
Quill, Sayori was pretty nosy, she's our shipper though!
The reason why want to be a bachelor will be revealed later, though. Don't worry. And don't put yourself down, dude! Seriously, get those gains and learn to speak to girls and then move out!
Also, it isn't that hard to find to another farewell. smh.
P.S: Nice profile picture, if I didn't say so if already.
Boi, Having girls fighting for a boy is something a boy should never experience. Ever. Thanks for review.
Guardian, I AM A PINK GOLF BALL! (as if 4/2/18) AND WHAT ARE YOU?!
Anyway, our boy Val got flanked and captured by the enemy team like Price in Operation Kingfish. Sad shit y'know.
AND IT REALLY BE YOUR OWN BOIS!
AND fellas? IS IT GAY TO HAVE SEX? CAUSE A GIRL IS PRODUCT OF ANOTHER GIRL AND BOY! HMMMMM? (thinking emoji)
Anyways, sick review fam. Keep your shitpost up.
P.S: Squat
Roast Lord, You didn't mention it in your review, smh.
AND WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. Gabe did get a beatdown.
Anyways, the scene can be both enchanting and maybe destructions as well. But a plus 5. And. RESTORATION IS A PERFECTFULLY VALID SCHOOL OF MAGIC!
Natsuki is all over Val here. I'm sorry, my lord.
YES I AM, YOU ROASTY ROAST LORD! MY ARMY OF RATS SCARED THE SHAMAN AWAY AND MY SHITPOSTS ARE BACKED BY THE INTERNET AND MY FAM GUARDIAN
Maybe...
BUT STILL I'LL BE WEAVIN IN OUR FIGHT
watch out
In all seriousness, thank you for the review dude.
Tsudzukete, Yup! I tried to incorporate a little of reality in there, ya know? Thanks for review!
Math, Yo, but uh, Fortnite though? Sorry, anyway, thanks for the congrats! I appreciate it! I never thought I would break 100k words! Thank you!
Titan, Gabe could have won the exchange. But Val or Frank will have a comeback to that aswell. Thank you for reviewing though! It means a lot to me, especially if you have read for a while! The hidden plot will converge during the climax of this story, don't worry. The shackles, the project, the director and everyone will all be explained in the climax and end. I've made Val to depict an very loosely based average young adult during our times. And I also find it scary that you look at memes while dead in Fortnite, since I do the same exact thing too! Holy shit! And I'm also doing the same exact thing with the gym! The gain train never stops! Thanks for review man! I hope to see more of it!
That was a doozy. Thanks for reading this chapter!
