Chapter 20

With the tides getting higher, it's impossible to play near the ocean. The sky getting dark makes it even harder to walk around the beach. The most they can do is to play around the hotel. Anticipating this, Koro-sensei come up with an idea. Before dinner, they will have a test of courage. Because it's summer, that's why. Chika never been to a test of courage before (test of courage event in a classroom during elementary school festival do not count) so she's interested. The venue will be the underwater cave Group 3 have visited before, so it's slightly less scary for her. Of course, they can kill Koro-sensei during the test. The test will be done by pairs. A boy and a girl will enter the cave in intervals. At least they don't have to be alone. There is one thing that bothers her...

The pairing...!

Okuda-san & Akabane-san

Sugino-san & Kanzaki-san

Shiota-san & Kayano-san

Okano-san & Maehara-san

Chiba-san & Hayami-san

Her OTPs are being paired of! This can't be a coincidence! Koro-sensei must have planned this for the start for the sake of shipping! What are the chance of him shipping the same pairings as she does?! Inwardly, Chika is pleased with this turn of events. If everything goes smoothly... Her OTPs will be realised! Fufufufufu! Since Koro-sensei decides the pairings, they can't take dibs on anyone. Kataoka-san is paired with Isogai-san. Hara-san with Yoshida. Hazama-san with Terasaka. Takebayashi-san is with Ritsu. Sugaya-san will go with Nakamura-san. Hinano-san with Okajima. Yada-san with Kimura-san. Fuwa-san with Mimura-san. And lastly, her with Muramatsu.

To be honest, Chika still feel uncomfortable around opposite genders. She now knows that there are no truly mean boys in Class 3E, but the hesitation is still there. The Delinquent Trio- Terasaka gang once intimidated the heck out of her. Now she knows that they are all right. Akabane-san... Well, she's still a bit afraid with him. The only boys she's quite comfortable with are Shiota-san and Isogai-san. Shiota-san didn't ask much when Chika used him as a shield when Board Chairman dropped by. And what else can she say about Isogai-san? That said, Chika is fine being paired with Muramatsu. His family helped Toshiko-nee in the past. How could she stay afraid with someone like that?

Each pair is given a flashlight. Muramatsu will be the one to hold theirs. The cave is dark and damp. They must be careful not to slip. Chika peeled her eyes open. She won't let Koro-sensei get away this time. The two walk in silence as they descend further down the cave. Chika have no idea what to talk about to Muramatsu. She knows little about ramen. What do boys like to talk about? Certainly not parties and bourgeois topics that the Five Virtuosos often talked about. The only topic Chika feel comfortable to talk about is assassination. She wonder if Muramatsu feel troubled like her.

They are stopped on their tracks when suddenly, brightly coloured flames lit up out of nowhere. The sound of Okinawa shansin fills the air, replacing the sound of dripping water. Chika readies her gun while Muramatsu pointed the flashlight to the front. Koro-sensei, dressed in ancient robes, emerged from the darkness. He sport a fake moustache and a beard. Red blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. His skin have turned pale green.

"This is blood drenched cave of tragedy... Where Ryukyu royalty, defeated in battle, met a violent end..."Suddenly, Koro-sensei disappears. Next thing she knew, something is breathing down her neck."You must stay together... Wandering spirits will haunt to death anyone left alone!"

Turning her heels around, Chika aims her gun. Unfortunately, Koro-sensei have already disappeared. "Damn! He already left!" Muramatsu lower his Anti-sensei knife. "He probably going to scare other pairs. Let's go." He said to Chika. She nodded. They start to walk again. Chika is studying the stalagmites when Muramatsu speaks up. "Hey, Oichi... Can I ask you something?" Muramatsu shift nervously next to her.

"What is it?"

"It's... Kind of a rude question..." Muramatsu waits for her approval. When she give him a nod, he continues. "I don't know much about your situation but... Back then Toshiko-san's state was pretty bad... So I was wondering... How is your family at the moment? You're living with your sister now so I guess it's pretty bad? I don't mean to pry but..."

"It's fine, Muramatsu." Chika said calmly, stopping him. "Your family have taken care of my sister a few years back. You deserve to know the situation. To answer your question, my parents have an ongoing divorce process at the moment."

"O-oh..." They lapsed to silence before Muramatsu speak up again, "Have you... Heard something from your parents? I mean... Have you talked to them recently?"

Chika internally grimace at the question. "I haven't spoken to them in months." She told him truthfully.

Muramatsu nodded. He look contemplative for a moment before turning his head to her. "You know, ever since first year, I've been wondering if you're related to Toshiko-san. I've heard that there's a girl from Class 1-C with the surname Oichi. But I figured, it might just be someone unrelated. Then I got a glimpse of you one day. You look really similar to Toshiko-san."

"I do?"

"Well, yeah. You two are sisters right?" Muramatsu raise his eyebrow. "But you know... I'm not sure how to approach you... We're in different class. We never met before. I couldn't just walk up to you and say 'Hey, I know your sister. She came to my family shop after she ran away from home'. You will definitely hate me. And... Honestly? You scared me back then." That got Chika to pause. "I don't mean it like that! It's just-" He coughed before looking at her seriously. "You look like Toshiko-san when she first came to our shop. All dour and quiet... Back then I was a kid. I don't know the full story but... The air around her is just heavy. Like, she's carrying around something dark, and you must not try to pry it..." He looked thoughtful for a moment before continuing. "I'm an outsider so I can't say much but... I'm worried for you two. I hope I'm not overstepping boundaries here."

"...It's okay," Chika finally say after another moment of silence. "Thank you for worrying, Muramatsu. I'm actually glad that there's someone worried for us. It made me really happy. I mean it."

Muramatsu blushes a bit, "Oh. Okay. Cool." He relaxes and smiled. "Toshiko-san really doing okay now, right? I'm glad."

Chika studies him for a moment before realising something. "Muramatsu, can I ask you something?"

"Hm?"

"Do you like my sister?"

Muramatsu instantly splutter. His face turn red, even Chika can tell how much he is blushing right now under this darkness. Her question surprises him so much that Muramatsu almost drop the flashlight. Thankfully he caught it before it hit the cavern floor. "Phew... That scares me." Muramatsu wipe the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand. Then he turn red once more. "What makes you think that?" He shot back.

"Just wondering."

"Just wondering you say...," Muramatsu muttered under his breath. He take a deep breath before turning to her. "I like her," He admitted with a straight face. Then he become nervous again. "I mean... She is so pretty! The 8 year old me thought that she is the prettiest girl around... And she comes off as mature at first... It's just a stupid crush. But I was too scared too approach her. And then... She became nice."

Chika tilt her head in curiosity. "Nice?"

"She... Start to smile a lot... And laughing. She became really chatty. Her life is harsh but... She become cheerful, y'know. Of course, that's when the teasing starts. Toshiko-san likes to give me a noogie and ruffle my hair. Every now and then she would prank me... That totally destroyed my image of her as a cool beauty. Then one day... We were joking around... Laughing over something my old man said... I noticed how prettier she is when she laughs... I was like 'Oh'. It was like something just... Clicked. I want to see her smile. To make her laugh. To cheer her up whenever she's down because of school or modelling. I want her to be happy. Even though I was just a kid back then, I know what this feeling is." Chika stay quiet, listening closely. "No... I've fallen for her when I saw her smile for the first time... Being a kid at the time, it terrifies me. Still does actually." He grinned a little.

She take a step closer to him. "So you still have feelings for Toshiko-neesan? Even now?"

"...Yeah..." Muramatsu admitted. "I'm not going to confess though. It won't work out. The age gap is too great. She's a famous model and I'm just... Me. A kid from a ramen shop. Member of Class 3-E. And now she have you to take care of. It will be weird if your sister date your classmate right?" He laughs a bit. "Toshiko-san will surely laugh if I told her I like her."

"She won't."

"You've seen how she teased me-"

"She won't laugh at you," Chika said seriously. "Toshiko-nee is not that kind of person."

Muramatsu stared at her for a moment before nodding in agreement. "Yeah... You're right. Toshiko-san is not that kind of person."

"I want to hear it you say it though."

Muramatsu blinked at her. "Say what?"

"Say you like her."

"Here?" Chika nodded. Muramatsu grimaces and the steeled himself. He take a deep breath before looking at her seriously. "I like Toshiko-san."

"Thank you," Chika said sincerely.

Muramatsu blushes from embarrassment. "That's a weird request you had there, Oichi."

"Did it make you feel better after saying it out loud?"

"...Yeah. It does actually." He blushes some more. "Thanks for listening to me rambling without any complain."

"No, it is me who should thank you," Chika look at Muramatsu seriously. "Thank you for taking care of my sister. Thank you for telling me all this. Thank you..." This time it's Chika's turn to stumble over what to say. "...For worrying about me." She finished in low volume.

Muramatsu stare at her before smiling. "No problem." They lapsed into a comfortable silence before Muramatsu suddenly chuckles. "You're just as weird as Toshiko-san, Oichi." He said. "I don't mean it in a bad way!" He quickly adds. "I'm just... Glad. For you two." Chika can tell the sincerity in his words. It made her chest feel warm. After a moment of thinking, Chika bring up her fist. Hesitantly she show it to Muramatsu. He stare blankly at it before realisation dawned upon him. Grinning, he bumped his fist to hers. "Heh."

Happy with the result, Chika feel bold. "Does this mean you will give me a discount when I come to your ramen shop?"

"My pops seems to like you so maybe he'll give you a discou-" He paused mid sentence. Muramatsu turn around to her in alarm. "Are you being cheeky right now?"

"What makes you say that?" Chika asked back with a flat tone.

"You..." Muramatsu blinked at her before smirking. "You really are related to Toshiko-san."

"I have no idea what are you talking about."

Muramatsu simply shake his head in amusement. "By the way..." He looks around. "Where the heck is Koro-sensei?"

...

Koro-sensei is sprawled on the sand, panting heavily. Gone his fake moustache and beard. The students surrounds him, shaking their heads. Chika's suspicion have been proven correct. He did try to set up couples by scaring them. Essentially using the suspended bridge effect to bring the pair closer. Too bad his fear for ghosts lead him being the one to get scared instead, thus backfiring his own plans. Not entirely, Chika corrected in her mind. She did feel closer to Muramatsu now. Just not in a romantic way. She do wonder if her OTPs got closer now.

"But I wanted to see it! Don't you all want to hold someone's hand and look embarrassed with a big grin on your face?" Koro-sensei whines as tears streaming down from his beady eyes. "I was trying to keep you from marrying someone random!"

"Koro-sensei, you have to do that kind of stuff gently," Nakamura-san scold him gently. "Kids like us wouldn't like to be pushed into things like love affairs." More over marriage. "We're not as sleazy as you."

Koro-sensei hiccuped, "I understand, Nakamura-san..."

"What the hell?!" A familiar feminine voice yelled. "There was no one there the whole time! I felt like a loser, walking around scared!" Everyone turn around to see Karasuma-sensei and Bitchirina-sensei walking out from the cavern. She is clinging to his arm, looking frustrated. She glares at Karasuma-sensei. Chika's inner shipper start to cheer at the sight.

"I told you it was pointless clinging to me like that," Karasuma-sensei said impatiently. "I don't need that kind of baggage after an all-nighter."

"Shut up! You're a man, aren't you?!" Bitchirina-sensei fires back. "If there's a beautiful girl, you have to kindly escort her! Stupid!" Karasuma-sensei simply huffed. Bitchirina-sensei then finally take notice of them watching them. She immediately let go of Karasuma-sensei.

A maniacal grin slowly spread on everyone's face (except hers of course). Chika can feel everyone emits a predatory air. Their eyes trained upon the two people standing before them.

Shall we push them together?

For the very first time, Chika feel truly connected to everyone in Class 3-E.

Bitchirina-sensei didn't deny it when they confronted her. Instead, she went to a full rant mode as soon as they reached the hotel. How Karasuma-sensei would brush off her advances, barely reacting to all kinds of outfit she put on, not understanding the hidden meaning in her words and being oblivious in general. Still, who would've guessed? For a femme fatale like Bitchirina-sensei to fall in love with a military man like Karasuma-sensei... This is just like a novel, in Chika's opinion. Oh yes, she's going to write a fix about this two when she gets home...

"I can't help it! That guy's straight-laced ways is world class!" Bitchirina-sensei complained. "I have my pride to you know. I'm the best when it comes to bringing men down... I tried to get serious and have him fall for me... But instead I..." Her words trailed off. Pink hues appear on her cheeks. It's rare to see her bashful like this. The exact opposite of her usually confident and brash attitude. The boys seems to like it, since almost all of them blushes. Maehara-san even calls her adorable when she's like this, much to his embarrassment. Bitchirina-sensei is surprisingly clumsy when it comes to her love life (the real kind, not mission related). Wait... Does this means Karasuma-sensei is her first love? Talk about unexpected!

"Leave it to us!" Maehara-san declares. "We'll set the mood for you two!" All students, including Chika, nodded.

"We'll carry on the plan during dinner time!" Koro-sensei decided, he already changed from his tourist outfit to a business suit, complete with a wig and fake glasses. "Now then, we shall now begin the meeting of Class 3-E's love consultation." Behind him, Isogai-san is holding a small white board with a drawing of an umbrella with their teachers' name under it. Below the drawing 'Hook Up Plan' is written.

Bitchirina-sensei sweat a bit at that. "You're really into this, aren't you, you octopus?"

"It's only obvious that I would support my colleague's love." Koro-sensei chuckles. His skin suddenly turns pink. "The passionate days of a female instructor falling head over heels for a man... I feel that I could write a bittersweet novel about a pure love like this."

"You're obviously thinking up an ero novel!" The class shouts collectively. Koro-sensei is openly a pervert, if it's not education or sweets, it will always be something sleazy.

"First of all, Bitch-sensei, your fashion style is a problem."

"Yeah. Too much skin is no good."

"It's not what a conservative Japanese man like Karasuma-sensei would like. You have to attack with a more clean style. Like Kanzaki-chan!" Nakamura-san turn to Kanzaki-san. Kanzaki-san is the closest thing to a Yamato Nadeshiko in their class. "If they're dry, can we borrow the clothes you were wearing yesterday?" Kanzaki-san doesn't seem to mind. A few moments later, she returned from her room bringing the dress she wore yesterday. One quick change later... Bitchirina-sensei walk out from the changing room. The middle of the dress is left unbuttoned because they can't hold her breasts... Leaving her showing off her cleavage (like always). The skirt is too short for a tall woman like Bitchirina-sensei. It's actually turning out kind of erotic. None of the sizes match. Kanzaki-san covers her face in shame, shocked that her usually neat style can become so... Daring. Okajima leering at her don't help either.

Okano-san huffs. "Allright, enough! We can't do anything with her ero-ness. Rather than her sex appeal, what's important is the compatibility!" Behind her, Kayano-san is nodding furiously. She always been blatant with her dislike of large bosoms. The only large breasted women she's okay with is Yada-san and Bitchirina-sensei. Chika wonder if Kayano-san would treat her differently if she have big bust like Toshiko-nee...

"Does anyone know what type of woman Karasuma-sensei likes?" Koro-sensei inquires.

"Ah! Now that you mention it!" Yada-san perked up. "A while back I saw him watching a live TV action series! The main characters are all females. They all are athletes. You know, all muscled and do martial arts. Karasuma-sensei happily commented on their figures. He said that it's his ideal type."

Ideal for battle...

"No... It's possible that he likes strong women. If so, then all the more, with Bitch-sensei's muscles, it's hopeless." Takebayashi-san said sadly.

"T-Then how about some homemade food?" Okuda-san suggests. "The hotel dinner might be fancy, but we can still give it a try. Just those two and Karasuma-sensei's favourite food."

"I've never seen Karasuma-sensei eat anything but hamburgers or cup noodles."

"...Eating that with just the two of them would be kind of sad."

Ugh... There's absolutely nothing to take advantage of!

With no options left, the others start to diss Karasuma-sensei.

"Anyway... Let us prepare what we can by dinner time," Koro-sensei fixes his fake glasses. "The girls will help style her in a way a conservative Japanese person would like. The boys will work on setting the mood for their dining area. Let's move!"

...

They went to Bitchirina-sensei's hotel room. With the exception of Chika, Hazama-san, Kurahashi-san and Kanzaki-san, the rest of the female students are squealing. Bitchirina-sensei is seated in front of the dressing table as Kayano-san fusses over her hair. If she remember correctly, Kayano-san is the one to give Shiota-san his signature twin tail hairstyle. With their similar height, she heard that people mistake them for twins from the back.

Yada-san and Nakamura-san are inspecting Bitchirina-sensei's clothes, laying out all of them on the bed. All of her outfits consists of dresses or skirts. No pants except for sleep wear. If they're going for a clean look, they have to peek the least revealing dress. Unfortunately, all of the outfits shows so much skin. The winner is the red flowing dress Bitchirina-sensei wore the previous night. Still, the show of her décolletage pose a problem.

"...How about we use a shawl to cover her cleavage?" Chika suggested.

"That's a great idea!" Hara-san clapped her hands. "I saw a boutique when we first came here. The staff told me that they have a sewing machine. I'll go buy one now!"

"Thank you~" Nakamura-san wave at her.

Now the girls fusses over make up. Chika glanced at the dressing table. As expected from Bitchirina-sensei, her make up are from top brands as well. She recognise a couple of brands, Toshiko-nee buy her make up from the same brands. Aside from lip balm, Chika never really wear make up... Though Toshiko-nee is surely itching to doll her up. Maybe she could take a closer look... Her hand reach out to a lipstick-

"Oichi-san, can you pass me the lipstick?" Yada-san said suddenly, causing Chika's movement to halt.

"Oh- Un." Chika handed her the lipstick. Did the others notice? She's not doing anything weird... Right? Kayano-san have pulled up Bitchirina-sensei to a ponytail. The hairstyle shows of her long neck. In Japanese culture, the nape of the neck is considered to be very sensual. Clever. Her thoughts soon forgotten as Chika watch Bitchirina-sensei put on her make up. It's something mundane... But a fascinating thing to watch. Their teacher is already beautiful, and the make up further enhance her appearance. Chika wonder if she will ever reach Bitchirina-sensei's and Toshiko-nee's level... Kataoka-san and Okano-san are staring intently at Bitchirina-sensei. Strange, they never look this interested in her lessons before... Maybe they have the same thoughts as Chika. To be a feminine woman is hard work...

The doorbell rings. Okuda-san opens the door and Chika heard Hara-san's voice. Ah, she's back.

"I got it!" Hara-san shows them a shopping bag. "I worked as fast as I can. The boys are also done with their preparation. And it's almost dinner time!" Everyone glance at the clock and gasp in surprise.

"We're out of time! Hara-san! The shawl!" Yada-san hold out her hand. Hara-san pull out the shawl and give it to her. With one swift movement, Yada-san drape and tie the shawl around Bitchirina-sensei's shoulders. Well... It didn't fully cover her cleavage but they have no time to change!

The girls are all but drag Bitchirina-sensei to the dining area. The hotel staff gave them bewildered looks but shrug it off, continuing their work. Chika barely sit down when Karasuma-sensei enters the room. He looked around. Everyone else have already seated... And take over other chairs. For example, Nakamura-san is resting her feet on two chairs and rest her arm to a fourth chair. Okano-san is doing a split.

"I thought we'd be eating as a group. What is this?"

Nakamura-san chuckles "No seats left for you Karasuma-sensei."

"It's our famous Class E teacher bullying!" Okano-san back her up.

"You teachers just get in the way. You can go eat outside!"

Karasuma-sensei turns to Chika's direction. That made her glance to an empty spot next to her. Without wasting any second, she lie down on the cushion, avoiding to look at their teacher's direction. 'I'm so sorry, Karasuma-sensei...' She internally apologise. Underneath the table, Fuwa-san give her a thumbs up.

With no choice left, Karasuma-sensei went outside. As soon as he is out of the room, the whole class abandon their seats to peek. Hiding behind the pillar with Fuwa-san, Chika watch as Karasuma-sensei take a seat across Bitchirina-sensei. The boys did a good job setting up the table. They placed it to face the panoramic view. Their teachers can watch the sunset as they dine. Koro-sensei is trying hard to muffle his giggle, so he further bury himself under the ground to nose level. They can't see if they are talking but from their hands movements, Chika knows that they are eating. Watching those two eat makes her hungry. No! She will hold on! For Bitchirina-sensei's love! On the corner, Kurahashi-san is sniffling, biting on her handkerchief. Ah... She have a crush on Karasuma-sensei...

Everyone tenses when Bitchirina-sensei stood up. Chika watches in excitement as she walk around the table. This is it! She's going to attack Karasuma-sensei! Bitchirina-sensei bends down... She reach out for Karasuma-sensei's napkin. She pressed it to her lips before press it to Karasuma-sensei's. Ooh! Indirect kiss! It's unexpectedly much more exciting that Bitchirina-sensei's usual kisses! This is so going down in her fanfic!

Bitchirina-sensei let go of the napkin. She start to walk away. Wait. What? Why is she walking away? They are done with the dinner but- That's it?! Bitchirina-sensei stop on her tracks before turning around, saying something to Karasuma-sensei. The she resume walking. Naturally, the others didn't take it so well. As soon as she nears their hiding spot, everyone jumps out and start bombarding her.

"What was with that half-assed indirect kiss just now!"

"Slip your tongue is like you always do, your tongue!"

Chika on the other hand, observe Karasuma-sensei's reaction. He looks confused at their sudden appearance, that's a given. But... He give Bitchirina-sensei a thoughtful look. Others may complained but personally, Chika thinks Bitchirina-sensei did the right move. Had she kissed him like how she kiss the students, Karasuma-sensei will be put off. He will push her away and distance himself. The subtle moves can be as effective as the frontal ones. And... The way Bitchirina-sensei delivered that indirect kiss is... Kinda sexy. Karasuma-sensei, who is used seeing Bitchirina-sensei being frontal, is surprised with her hidden depths. Bitchirina-sensei will learn more how to navigate in love... In a way, those two are going through character development. Chika likes how this is going...

Karasuma-sensei touches his lips, looking clueless. He really doesn't realise? Chika feels like falling anime style. Come on! That gesture is so obvious! Bitchirina-sensei really likes you! So much that she basically went OOC! Chika let out a sigh.

'Karasuma-sensei... You really are something...'

This chapter takes place from Ch. 74 - 75 in the manga.
