Chapter 97: Introduction (1)

"Look at their hands…"

One of them pointed to our linked hands. Is it that surprising?

"Hey, Kazuo. Are you fine with this?"

Tadano asked. He's sitting next to him. I know that he still doesn't accept me and now he's riling Ogawa to make a move.

Ogawa didn't answer him. On the contrary, his gaze was locked on our hands.

I can guess what he's thinking. He probably hasn't touched Nami's hands yet and now he's watching us doing it naturally, without aversion.

"Onoda and Nanami…"

Mori was surprised. She alternately looked between Ogawa, Nanami and me, trying to understand this situation.

After a while, she got the idea of what's really happening.

She looked at me and a meaningful smile surfaced from her lips.

This girl is quite sharp when it concerns Ogawa. Now she understood that this is what I meant earlier. The plan for us which will also give her a chance to Ogawa.

"So Nanami already has a guy. Isn't this sad? I thought you and Kazuo were getting closer these past few days."

The speaker was a new face to me.

Ah. Based on her uniform, a 2nd year. The Student Council President? No. Not her. Is she part of Ogawa's harem?

"Izumi-senpai, I was asking Kazuo for advice these past few days."

Nami answered. She's really into our act now. She turned her meeting with Kazuo as her seeking advice from him.

"I see. Then will you introduce him to us? I can see that you all know him, only us 2nd years don't know the name of the guy who managed to win you over."

The senpai she called Izumi smirked. I could feel her eyes checking out everything about my appearance. What's her deal, I wonder? I can't guess her type but just by her sitting posture and her uniform which were not properly buttoned, she's like a delinquent. You know, the type who make fun of pushovers.

Well, that's just my impression on how she looks. Maybe she just likes dressing like that. Who knows?

"Right. Nanami-chan is sneaky. Getting herself a guy in the 2nd week of your High School. Who is he?"

The other 2nd year finally opened her mouth. Just by the tone of her voice, she's probably the playful-type who would often tease you to get your secrets out. And being next to that Izumi-senpai, they make a great pair.

"Hina. This is a chance for you!"

Kikuchi, the fujoshi, exclaimed. Yes, she's here too, even with her being a fujoshi, she chose to join this club instead of Manga club.

Apart from Ogawa and Tadano, there's one more guy but he seems to be a quiet type, even in class. Knowing Tadano who only has an eye for Nanami, these girls are here for Ogawa, right? Or maybe that quiet guy? I don't know, he's like an air sitting there.

Ah, I forgot his name since he's not really talkative but he's always at their circle.

Kikuchi is an exception. She's probably here because of Mori while satisfying her fetish by secretly pairing Ogawa and Tadano to each other or to that quiet guy.

Nami pulled my hand and led me to a seat next to her.

"You guys already know him so for Izumi-senpai and Arisa-senpai. Let me introduce to you, Onoda Ruki, we started going out with each other this Monday."

I looked at the two and nodded at them as a greeting. Well, I don't know what to say and they're clearly not talking to me. I'm just checking out everyone's reaction. Apart from these two new faces, the others are just curiously watching us.

"Seriously, this Monday? How long have you known each other?"

Izumi-senpai asked. Well a little more than a week?

"Uwaa. Lucky guy. Hey, Nanami-chan. What did you see in him?"

I don't know as well, Arisa-senpai. Err. Why am I answering them in my head?

"So the rumor is true. Nami is meeting with him during lunch."

The last girl who hasn't spoken yet murmured at her seat.

Ah. I remember, her surname is Imada.

"Onoda, snatching away Nanami. I remembered how she blocked Harada to approach him last Monday. At that time, you're already…"

Kikuchi murmured. She's trying to connect the dots. But during that time, I talked to Mori first. I don't know the extent of her knowledge about my deal with Mori. Why isn't she suspicious of me?

Well, Nami only made up that we started dating last Monday. It's to support what she revealed to Tadano when he caught us in that empty clubroom yesterday.

With all of them talking at the same time, Nami had a hard time responding. She looked at me with that pleading eyes of hers, she even tightened her hold on my hand.

Ah. I guess this is my time to take the stage.

I coughed once to get their attention and that instantly silenced the room. Their eyes were now all locked on me. Even Tadano who had his annoyed face on and Ogawa who seemed calm but trembling at his seat were looking at me.

"Uhm. It's nice meeting all of you, especially you seniors. Truthfully, I'm kind of scared to meet her circle of friends but seeing you all here and seeing you all happy and curious about Nami and me, I guess that reduced my fear."

I started. Well, I need to put on an attitude that I showed in the classroom. Most of them don't know the real me anyway, only Nami and Mori.

Ah. Even Mori only knew me as the pervert who wanted to steal Nami and her but since she's cooperating with me, she won't say anything.

"Oh? Why are you afraid? Do you think we will be against your relationship?"

Izumi-senpai asked. She put on her delinquent attitude at the front. Is she trying to intimidate me? But she's quite cute. I can conclude that she's one of the girls aiming for Ogawa. She kept on glancing at him, watching his reaction to what's being said.

"Ah. No, it's not like that. I heard from her that you all are close friends of her since middle school, it's a friendship that has lasted for years now. For me to suddenly intrude, I thought you might find me rude."

I don't know if my acting is believable but I guess it is. They're not suspecting we're just acting. Our hands never separated even after we took a seat after all. Nami even leans her body to me. From their eyes, we're probably like an idiot couple showing off our affection to each other.

Even if this is just an act, to be introduced like this isn't a bad experience.

"Onoda, you were kind of quiet in class but you're fairly popular, you know. To think that you will think that deeply for Nanami…"

Imada interjected. Is she part of Ogawa's harem? Ah. I don't think so, she's just an ordinary friend like the quiet guy whose name I forgot.

"Ah. I'm not thinking that deeply, it's just, I like Nami and I want to make a good impression on her friends."

Good impression for you guys to think that our relationship is real. Ogawa is probably uncomfortable right now, he's holding himself back by staying silent there. But yeah, if I succeed at stealing her, this relationship will probably stay as it is.

"Onoda-chi, tell us how did you win her over? That's what we're curious about."

Arisa-senpai asked with that playful smile on her lips.

"Err… Nami, is it fine to tell them?"

Right. I should ask her first, this way it will be too believable. Will she follow through our act?

"Why are you asking me? It's you who wanted to get a good impression when I already told you they wouldn't mind it."

I guess worrying about it is useless. Nami is too into acting now that she's even supporting my story by adding more details by herself.

"Alright. But first, Tadano, you met us yesterday, right? I'm sorry for what I said back then. The situation led me to say those things to you."

I turned to Tadano and bowed my head to him. This time is the most suitable to calm this hot-headed guy down. He's still rejecting my existence but if I do this, it will make him step back and stop his hostility.

"No. I was also at fault. You don't have to apologize."

He flinched when I turned to him and said all that. He didn't expect me to apologize at this moment.

"Thanks, man. We might have our differences but for Nami, I'll lower my head to you."

Yes, for my smooth stealing of Nami from Ogawa, I need you to accept our pretend relationship even if I still hate your guts.

"Hey! I told you it's fine. As long as Nanami is happy. But if you make her cry, you know what will happen."

His tone turned serious while saying that last sentence of his. Well, I already expected that and nothing will make me be intimidated by him. He's still not a threat in my eyes.

"She won't cry. I'll make sure of that. Now to answer Arisa-senpai's question, the truth is, Nami is the one who approached me."

To make it more convincing, I will mix in events that really happened. Nami was aware of that so it will be easy for her to support my story.

"Wow~"

Arisa-senpai even clapped upon hearing it. And the rest are just dumbfounded by my words that Nami approached me first.

Chapter 98: Introduction (2)

"Eh? Ruu…"

Nami didn't expect me to say that. She thought I would just create a whole new story about how we first met.

When Arisa-senpai sees her like that, she puts on another playful smile.

"What's wrong? You said it's fine to tell them. Are you embarrassed?"

I teased her a bit as part of an act and well, also for real. I still remember that day when she first approached me.

"…No. Go on, tell them. We'll have a talk later, prepare yourself."

I don't know if that's her act but she sure showed me a scary glare while her smile was still plastered on her face.

"Shoot, you're in for trouble already Onoda-chi. But to think it will be her who will approach first. Which spell did you put her under?"

Arisa-senpai laughed at our exchanges. She's enjoying this.

This is a sign that our act is convincing.

"Eh? No, there's nothing like that. It was last Wednesday when she suddenly called out to me and asked if I am a stalker."

I'm sure Nami is also thinking back on that time.

Back then I was just someone she took interest in because she found similarities between us.

"Stalker?! Pfft. That sounds like her. So, why did she ask you that?"

Arisa-senpai even changed seats to get closer to us. Among the people here, she's the only one who kept asking us questions, the others were just listening curiously.

But so far, no one called out for our act.

"She said she noticed me looking at the back of a senior."

Now not only Arisa-senpai is listening closely. Ogawa and the others from our class didn't know how Nami suddenly became close to me when we never talked to each other in class.

"Heh, I can imagine her doing that. Nanami-chan is always that interesting. When she first approached me, she also asked something absurd out of the blue."

Ah. This is new. So Nami's always like that. Well, she's somehow straightforward as well. Even if we only know each other's name from being in the same class, she didn't hesitate to ask me that question. Even more so, it was outside where others could hear her.

"At that time, I'm thinking what have I done to get on her bad side. Though she left swiftly after I answered her. Then the next time she approached was last Friday when I was about to go to the cafeteria."

"Oi. Wait. You'll really tell us your whole love story? And you two, stop gazing at each other. Until when will you do that?"

Arisa-senpai stopped me from retelling everything. I guess it's lengthy for her.

I have a lot to tell her though. And most of it is true anyway.

"Err… Is it bad?"

I took my gaze away from Nami and turned it to Arisa-senpai.

When she mentioned that we're gazing at each other, Nami blushed out of embarrassment and maybe I was the same.

I didn't notice that our eyes were locked to each other in front of them.

Maybe Ogawa will mention this earlier. I'll just make an excuse that we did that for a more believable act.

Well there's also a possibility that he'll just gulped it down and convince himself that this is all part of the act.

"No. Just jump on how you beat Ogawa and got her to say yes."

Ah. This Arisa-senpai. She didn't have any breaks in her mouth. She mentioned Ogawa's name.

I saw him flinching from it at the corner of my eye.

"Ogawa?"

I acted like I don't have any idea about what she's talking about.

"You don't know? Kazuo also has the hots for Nanami-chan but he was too scared to confess. Now he doesn't have a chance to do that anymore."

She even smirked at Ogawa's direction while answering me.

"Arisa-senpai…"

Finally, he couldn't keep his silence anymore.

"Sorry Kazuo, Arisa is always like this, I'll stitch her mouth later." 𝑵𝒪𝓋𝗲𝑙𝑢𝓈𝒷.𝚌𝑜𝑀

Izumi-senpai apologized instead of Arisa-senpai.

Right. This confirmed that Izumi-senpai likes him as well. This harem protagonist…

"Eh? I didn't know about that. Ogawa, why didn't you confess? Ah. This is not me trying to rub salt on your wound. I'm just curious. In class, you and Nami seem pretty close."

"N-no. You don't have to worry about that. It's cool. Nanami accepted you so I guess it's really my fault that I didn't confess. There's no other reason, like Arisa-senpai said, I was scared. Now I don't have a chance anymore."

This guy, he's riding our act. That's good. Excellent even.

I tried reading his expression and it's real. No, it looks real.

Well, if he really lost it, he wouldn't act like this. He will flip out and confess that Nami and I were acting.

"Kazuo… we're still friends, right?"

Nami supported his act by asking him with a worried look.

"Of course. I'm happy for the two of you, Nanami."

With a refreshing smile that's probably what captured most of his harem, he answered her.

"Now now, let Onoda-chi answer my question."

Arisa-senpai interjected again. This girl, even if she was reprimanded by Izumi-senpai, she's still at it.

She was truly amused at what's happening. Now I can feel the atmosphere in this room turning awkward.

"Err... I don't think it's anything special. Last Monday, I confessed to her and Nami accepted me."

I answered.

Ah. I really confessed to her. It was yesterday and not last Monday though and I was not asking her to be my girlfriend.

"Oh? Nanami-chan. Is it really that simple?"

Arisa-senpai was not convinced at my answer so she turned to ask Nami next.

"No… Ruu, when I first saw him, I felt like I found someone like me. I approached him and I was right. Then we started talking after that day, the more I know him, the more I became drawn to him. Last Monday, when he suddenly told me he wants me to be his, it put me into some kind of wonderland. I felt happy and--"

"Hey hey. Stop. I stopped him to retell your whole story but you finished it by yourself. Nanami-chan. Is that the effect of being in love?"

Arisa-senpai cut off Nami.

She's really into our acting that after our visit here, it's possible to naturally act as lovers in front of them next time.

But yeah, once we leave this room and I pass her to Ogawa, the act will end.

"Effect of being in love? No, you asked me and I answered."

"Arisa, shut your mouth now. Nanami, it's enough. Onoda here looks sincere enough for me. You both don't have to be so tense at answering this girl's questions."

Izumi-senpai finally intervened and stopped Arisa-senpai to ask more questions, she even hit her head.

"Thank you Izumi-senpai."

Nami thanked her and I followed suit.

"Looks like you got a perfect match."

She smiled at us but I guess she's happier that her greatest rival for Ogawa was now out of the competition.

My desire to steal her was ignited since earlier but I'm suppressing it. I vowed not to add more targets for now after all.

"Ah. I wouldn't call it perfect. I was expecting you will all find it weird that I decided to accept him."

Nami answered honestly.

Normally that will be their reaction but you have competition here. If the strongest girl suddenly got a guy, they would welcome it with open arms. Ah so much for being friends. They probably separated their friendship and rivalry. Who knows.

"Nanami-chan, I don't think they will find it weird. They're even happy, you know? Izumi and Hina-chan are smiling, they now have a chance at Kazuo."

Arisa-senpai voiced out what I was thinking.

"What are you saying, Arisa-senpai? They don't look at me like that."

Ogawa reacted and denied Arisa-senpai's words. I guess he was already aware of their affection, he was just playing dumb since he only has Nami in his eyes.

"This guy… You should open your eyes and stop being this dense."

Arisa-senpai shook her head and showed how disappointed she was at his answer.

This girl. She really doesn't have any breaks on her mouth. Is she always like this?

Ogawa chose not to answer back and just stayed silent.

"Arisa… pick one, ruler or belt?"

Izumi-senpai glared at Arisa-senpai while pulling her on the ear to put her back to her previous seat.

"Eh? No. Izumi, we stopped using violence, right?"

It was at this scene when then the door to the clubroom opened again and a familiar face entered.

Ah, here she was, the Student Council President of this school.

"The clubroom is this lively, what's the occasion?"

The newcomer asked. She scanned the room and her gaze landed on me. I was the only unfamiliar face in this clubroom.

"Shizu! You're finally here. Look! Nanami brought a guy."

Arisa-senpai shouted and pointed at me like she found a lifesaver from Izumi-senpai.

"Huh? A guy?"

Her eyebrows raised as she observed me and my reactions. I vowed to her and greeted her.

Nami also did the same but didn't say anything.

"She got herself a boyfriend and she brought him here to be introduced to us."

Only now did I realize that even Izumi-senpai turned silent when the Student Council President showed up.

What is this? Are they afraid of her?

"Are you sure? Kazuo, why are you sitting calmly there?"

She turned to Ogawa and with a commanding tone, she asked him.

Ogawa flinched but he didn't answer. Instead, it was Nami who answered her.

"Shizu-senpai. Why are you asking him?"

"Nanami. You're not him. Why are you answering?"

Ah. What's the story between them? Looks like this Shizu-senpai was unconvinced about our relationship.

It didn't look like she saw through our act but she's asking Ogawa why he was taking this calmly.

"Kazuo is unrelated to this."

"Oh please, Nanami. I know how you two are into each other. Now, you brought a guy who simply neither has the features nor looks that could make you fall."

Shizu-senpai, the President, explained.

I see that's why she's unconvinced. And clearly, she's not putting me into her eyes. Haa.

"Can I say something?"

"No. I don't know who you are and I don't care so shut your mouth."

With a calm tone, she answered me. Normally one would be intimidated by that but yeah, I'm not a normal one.

"I see. I'll introduce myself then, senpai. I'm Onoda Ruki. Nami picked and accepted me. If you're unconvinced, I don't care about that. You can have your opinion but don't force it on us. If you don't like me, just say it outright."

I stood up and faced her. Nami was pulling on my hand as if telling me to sit and not provoke the President.

We might be acting but yeah, I don't like the way she ignored me and shut Nami down.

Right now, Nami is mine. They seem to be scared of her, I don't know why and I don't care. I'll ask Nami later. Whether she has her reasons or not, that doesn't matte

Chapter 99: Tactical Retreat

"I don't like you. You have that air of someone with many secrets."

Shizu-senpai frankly said.

Err… she really said it and with proper reasons. What's that air anyway?

"I see. We all have our own secrets senpai. But thank you for being honest."

I stood up and pulled on Nami's hand. Understanding what I was trying to do, she also stood up and we started making our way to the door.

"Where are you going?"

Shizu-senpai asked when she saw us leaving.

"Sorry senpai, I'm already done with the purpose of my visit here. I get that you don't like me. By looking at your attitude, you won't change that view, right?"

I answered.

This President seems to have an attitude which always wanted to dominate someone.

Look, even that Izumi-senpai whose attire was that of a delinquent hadn't uttered any word since the President arrived.

"So, you chose to run away? Is this the guy you picked, Nanami?"

At least I'm not as indecisive as Ogawa.

Ah. Right. She didn't pick me.

"Shizu-senpai. Picking him wasn't any of your concern, was it? I like him and it's not like I will change my choice just because you said so."

Nami broke her silence and stood in front of me. She looked straight at the President like someone ready to fight.

"Heh. Since when did you get that courage to talk to your older cousin like this? And didn't I tell you to call me Shizu-nee?"

Eh? Cousin? But their surnames...

Ah. I see. It's like that. One of their parents is brother and sister, that's why they have different surnames.

"Shizu-senpai. I always have this courage, I only respected you that's why I never talk back. Today, I don't like your attitude towards Ruu."

Nami answered her.

That Shizu-senpai smiled after hearing what Nami said.

"Is that how much you like this guy? Even when a week ago you were worried about how you could make Kazuo confess to you."

Still with that smile on her lips, she turned her gaze to me.

"Senpai, let's not talk about private things here. Nami, let's go?"

Under that scrutinizing gaze, I didn't cower. Instead, I stopped her and pulled on Nami's hand again.

"Hey, what's your name again?"

"I already introduced myself to you, senpai."

I shook my head and ignored her.

I turned to the others and excused ourselves before I left the clubroom with Nami in tow. I told them to keep our relationship a secret for now and I want all of us to get along.

Apart from the President they all acknowledged it. I threw a glance at Mori first before settling my eyes to Ogawa. This guy also turned silent in front of the President.

Well, that's what we agreed upon, to keep troublesome things from happening in class.

Shizu-senpai watched on and didn't say anything but her smile never left her lips. Looks like I was already marked by her.

This is not me running away. This is a tactical retreat. She's revealing too much information about Nami and Ogawa. If she keeps talking to Nami, more information that can point out that we're just acting might surface.

Plus, I don't like that condescending smile and attitude. Surely if I talk back further, she will use her seniority to get the respect she wants. It's better to avoid her this time.

And also, by retreating now, I earned myself more time to be with Nami alone.

"Ruu…"

Nami whispered from behind me, she looked worried about what I did.

"Don't worry, Nami. I'll make her accept me for you soon."

That President knew the story between Ogawa and Nami. By bringing me there, she was already suspecting Nami and Ogawa so she immediately asked him but with how I acted, it probably confused her, right?

"It's not that. Why did we leave?"

"Hmm? I see. You're blanking out when you're in front of her, Nami. Shizu-senpai was revealing too much information about you and Ogawa."

I see, Nami also has this side of her. All this time I see her as the scary observer girl.

I saw her confused state yesterday but today, that was a new side of her. She is scared of the President.

"…you're right."

"Let's go to that empty clubroom first to wait and talk."

"Okay."

"Anyway, thank you, Nami. You speak out for me."

Even if she was scared, she stood in front of me to defend me from that President. It honestly looked real. She mustered the courage to talk back to her.

"Ruu, you're my lover at this moment. I also didn't like the way she ignored you. I get that that's how she always is but seeing it done to you, I couldn't stand it."

Nami whispered in a soft voice. I glanced at her and saw her reddened face. Was that on impulse?

"Ah, hearing that from you, Nami. I'm happy. Is she always like that?"

I smiled at her to show how happy I was from what she did.

"Most of us were scared of her but she only showed that attitude to someone she met for the first time. It's to give you the impression that you should be scared of her." 𝗇𝗈𝑽𝑒𝐋𝗎𝓈𝔟.𝒸𝚘𝐦

I see. So it's like that. When I saw her back at the opening ceremony. She seems amiable and likable. Comparing her to Haruko who was a previous President, that Shizu-senpai is a bit different. Her public and private attitude were contrasting each other. Maybe if we sit and talk to each other in length, I will be able to learn more things about her but I don't have the time for it.

Soon, we arrived back at the empty clubroom. Apart from that Shizu-senpai, the act was already perfect and they were already convinced that we're a real couple.

I wonder what they will talk about now that we left that room.

"Ruu, hug me…"

After closing the door, Nami let go of my hand and hug me from the back.

This…

Nami wanted me to comfort her. From her hug, I could feel that she was trembling slightly. It seemed that the effect of standing up to the President had just started to surface.

I turned around, took her into my arms as she wished and whispered to her ear.

"Were you scared?"

"No… I just couldn't believe I stood up against her."

She shook her head and explained.

"What do you mean? You never stood up against her before?"

Now that I got to know her circle of friends, I felt my understanding of Nami deepened.

Even if she's the one who Ogawa likes, she has a lot of rivals in there. So she initiated that plan to make him panic, enough to push him to confess to her.

"An older sister."

"Normally, one wouldn't be scared of their older sister."

Yeah. That was weird. It didn't look like she was being bullied by her. In fact, with how much she knew, Nami probably often confides to her.

"She's different. Since young, she has always had that personality. I may be an observer but Shizu-nee can see through at almost everyone."

Eh? That's really scary. Good thing I haven't encountered her during middle school.

"I see. That's why just one look at me and she already knew I have secrets."

"She might be your nemesis, Ruu. If she found out what you're doing…"

"Ah. Are you worried about me, Nami?"

Well, if she did find out about it. What could she possibly do? Expose me to the whole school?

"Why will I be worried about you? You harem collector."

"Hey. Don't give me a title. If it's about harem, Ogawa has it too."

"This guy…"

"You couldn't deny that, right?"

Yeah. Given that she's an observer, she wouldn't be able to deny that Ogawa has his own harem. It's just the way we acted were opposite to each other.

He can naturally attract the girls while I have to work hard to steal one girl for me. My harem was built upon hard work and shady dealings with them. It didn't naturally become like this.

"This guy. Let's stop talking about that. Anyway, Shizu-nee will surely remember what you did."

In the end, she really diverted the topic back to Shizu-senpai.

"Alright, you know I won't care about that. If she doesn't like me for you, I'll just try my best to change that."

The problem is how. Do I need to go back to their club?

"But we're just acting, you don't need to go that far."

"You keep forgetting, we're real lovers right now."

I raised her head to face me, I can simply lean down to kiss her now but yeah, I won't do something. I have to hold back for now, until she asked for it herself, I'll only do what we agreed upon.

"Even so, our act will end one day."

"I'm going to steal you from him, that way we don't need to end this and turn the act to reality."

I won't let it end even if I have to keep the role of her boyfriend in front of her friends.

"There you go again. Let me go now, I'm already comfortable."

Nami released a sigh. She then stopped hugging me and tried to push me away.

I didn't make it hard for her. I dropped my arms that was hugging her and let her go

"It's surprising that you let go easily."

She said as she looked at me backing away, a bit confused.

"You sighed, you know? If I didn't let you go, you might become uncomfortable. That's the opposite of what I wanted to do for you."

I gave her a smile and turned to the chair where Ogawa sat earlier.

"Here, take a seat."

Nami didn't reject the chair and sat on it while I leaned on the wall, away from her.

Well, there's only one chair in this room, I don't know where they put the things that were previously here. Maybe someone from the nearby clubrooms took it and brought it to their own clubrooms.

"Ruu…"

After a few minutes of silence, Nami called out to me from where she was.

"What is it?"

I turned my gaze to her and answered.

I said I'll use this chance to steal her but I can't put myself to force it on her.

What's happening to me?

Do I really have to change like this? Normally I would stick to her side and slowly coax her into accepting what I wanted. That's how I always did it even when I was stealing Kana and Satsuki. I got them because whenever I got the chance, I always stuck to their side.

"Nothing… I thought you'll try and be forceful again. Just like how you forced me to practice holding hands."

See. Even Nami noticed it.

"You're right. Normally that's what I will do. I don't know, I just don't feel like it today?"

No. That's not the answer.

"Is that the effect of you remembering that emotion?"

"No, you already cleared that confusion earlier. I don't know, but now that you mentioned it…"

Ah. There's no use thinking about it if I don't really know the answer.

I stopped leaning on the wall and walked towards her.

She didn't say anything and just watched me approach her.

"Can I sit with you?"

I asked her. It's a single stool, there's no way we could share it but I still asked.

Before Ogawa arrives, I will now use this time to try to steal her.

Haa. I should've done this earlier. I lost a valuable few minutes just waiting at that corner. That's a blunder.

Chapter 100: End of the Act

"This guy. Now you're back to your usual self. Maybe it were the changes that happened to you these past few days influencing your actions."

She smiled and stood up.

Maybe she's right about this. I shouldn't be this confused. My desire didn't change anyway, it just got a little clearer and with me remembering the emotion of like and love, I was purposely trying to change my image for the better. But that's not me. I'm already at the far end of the spectrum, I couldn't just jump to the other side.

I should just do the usual. I stopped doing the most despicable methods but I shouldn't change the way I approach things. This was what she's talking about, my usual self.

This desire, I have to start controlling it, not be controlled by it. What do I want to do with Nami?

Well, it doesn't need to be asked. Of course, it's to make her mine. Then, I will stick to that thought.

Now that it became clear to me. Let's make this girl fall for me and steal her from Ogawa.

I took the chair and sat on it before I tapped my lap, asking her to sit there.

"Do you want me to sit there?"

Nami asked with her eyebrows raised. She didn't look like she was rejecting the idea, in fact, she was amused.

"Yes? You stood up on purpose so we could do this, right? This is the only way to share this chair."

"I think I was already influenced by you."

She sighed and after a few seconds of hesitation, she sat on my lap. She circled her arm around my neck to support her.

I could feel her soft butt pressing on my thigh.

Ah. I want to cup a feel of it. But yeah, I could already feel its shape from my thigh

"Now we looked like a real couple, Nami."

I smiled at her and she visibly reddened. Maybe for her, this is still an act but she's sharp enough to know that she also wanted this, it doesn't matter whether it's an act or not.

She could deny it but I could clearly feel that she's not against our closeness.

I used my arm to support her by holding her waist.

"Stop talking, pervert. I'll stand up immediately when that door opens, understand?"

"Fine by me. I'm already satisfied enough to hold you like this."

"I'm only fulfilling the deal I made with you. I'm your lover right now, so you should also act like my lover."

I see. This is the same with Satsuki. She will hold onto that acting part. I guess I should be satisfied with this for now. She will fall soon.

"I still don't know how to act as your lover but I'm well-versed at taking care of a girl. Wanna try it?"

I pulled her closer to me with our lips almost touching. We could now smell each other's breath.

"Remember our agreement, Ruu."

She reminded me as she pulled her head back a little.

"Then how about this?"

I took her hand and brought it to my lips. I kissed it while my eyes were stuck staring at her.

She watched me closely doing that.

"I'm impressed. You're really well-versed at taking advantage of a girl."

She said sarcastically with a smirk on her face.

"But, of course."

And I responded to it with the same intent.

My kiss traveled from her hand and to her upper arm. When I was about to kiss her neck, she stopped me by putting a finger on my lips.

"I think that's far enough, Ruu."

"Alright."

I turned away and acted like I'm disappointed. It's not like she didn't like what I did, maybe she was scared that she won't be able to stop me from going further if my kisses reached her neck.

"Hey, Ruu. Do you want to know why I like Kazuo?"

Nami repositioned herself to lean her body to me. I could smell her scent and feel her softness. To have her in my arms like this, this girl already likes me...

She's not naive. To let another guy other than her boyfriend be this close to her, that clearly shows how she feels for me.

She could brush it off as acting in front of them but not when we're alone like this.

Will she let Ogawa be this close to her as well? I don't know but I'm sure I don't want to see that happening before my eyes.

"No. I don't want to hear you talking about another guy. Maybe after this act, but right now, no."

"I forgot, you easily get jealous. You're a possessive man, Ruu."

I couldn't deny that because it's true. This might also be the reason why I also wanted to keep those girls who were still chasing after me back in middle school. Or Nikaido who expressed how she likes me. I'm just too possessive to those who I like and those who like me. Like Himeko said, I'm a greedy and stupid guy.

"Maybe when I successfully stole you from him, I wouldn't mind you mentioning him again."

"Keep dreaming, Ruu. Does this mean we don't have anything to talk about right now?"

She asked while looking around this empty room.

This room was clean enough that we could lie down on the floor if we wanted to.

"We don't really need to talk, passing the time like this with you is already enough to satisfy me."

"Enough to satisfy you, but I get bored easily, Ruu."

She took my hand again not to hold it but to relieve her boredom by tracing the lines on my palm.

"Actually, we can do something more, you know?"

I whispered to her ears before I planted a kiss just below her ears. I ought to do more but I felt her tense as she slowly turned her face to me.

"Ruu, I told you to stop. Even if I'm curious about it, let's not do more, please?"

She pleaded as she pushed my head away.

"Alright, you're my boss this time. Then can we just stay like this?"

I couldn't just end this act without pushing our relationship forward, she's already not against embracing me and sitting on my lap.

I wanted to hold her more closely so I used both of my arms to hug her and pulled her closer to me. She was squirming her body as resistance but yeah, my arms were stronger than her. In the end, she gave up and let her whole body lean onto me.

She looked up and glared at me but I answered her with a contented smile.

She only sent a retaliatory slap to my shoulder to show her displeasure to what I did.

"Actually, tell me more about yourself, Ruu. I want to know how you became like this. Your desire and such. It's something foreign to me."

After a few minutes in that position and silence, Nami spoke first. Her boredom took over her again.

"I seldom talk about myself, Nami. Give me a reason why I should tell you about it."

"Because you like me and this is a chance for you to appeal to me."

To appeal? Will my history even appeal to her? It's like a dark history for me but I'm not regretting any of the things I've done.

"Ah. I don't think it will appeal to you. I'm sure you'll hate me if you learned about my history."

"And that's why I want to know. Ruu, you're not as dense as Kazuo. What we're doing right now and what I'm feeling for you, I know it's all clear to you."

As I thought, Nami was clear about what we're doing. On the surface, it might just be us acting like real lovers only but the feelings she's showing me were all real.

"Nami…"

"So, will you tell me or not?"

This is a crossroad for our relationship. If I don't tell her, my chances to steal her will drop to zero. And if I tell her about it, she will just hate me for everything I did before.

There's that option to lie but I'd rather not tell her than lie to her about my past.

"I don't want to lie to you, Nami. So can you give me time to think about it?"

"I see... I like you, Ruu."

Nami nodded at me as her answer. She then raised her head to whisper in my ears before reaching in and planted a kiss on my cheek.

"Eh?"

I couldn't help but be surprised at what she did and the words she uttered. When she lowered her head again, I saw her biting her lips while her face was beet red.

"Don't be surprised, Ruu. I did that because I'm satisfied with your answer. Tell me when you finished thinking about it. Until then, we can only be like this. Stuck in this stolen time we called 'acting'."

I couldn't respond to her after that. She described what we have right now clearly. This acting was just a stolen time where we could show how we really like each other whether it's in front of her friends or alone like this.

At the end of our act, she will go back to being Ogawa's girl.

Time passed where we just stayed like that. Close but distant. I want to show how much I like her but it will just put her off so I didn't do anything. We only embraced and enjoyed the comfort we brought each other through this connection.

Until I tell her about my past, she won't be able to decide whether she will continue our relationship to take it a step further or not.

Kana and Satsuki seem to have no intention to ask me about my past deeds but I guess it just hasn't come to their minds yet. If they ask me, will I be able to tell them?

I don't have to think about this back in middle school but with all the changes that happened to me these past few days, I guess, one day I have to tell them when they asked. 𝗇𝑶𝓥𝓮𝐥𝚞𝓈𝑩.𝗰𝚘𝑀

They're already mine, I won't hesitate to tell them all about it.

Nami is different from them though, she's still not mine and currently, she's Ogawa's girlfriend. This is why I'm having a hard time thinking about it.

When we heard the approaching footsteps, Nami immediately stood up from my lap. She fixed her clothes and asked me to check.

Well, there's nothing wrong with her clothes, I looked down at my lap and it's still a bit numb from how long she was comfortably sitting there.

Our acting for the day is about to end. Will I let it end like this? I still can't decide whether to tell her about what she wanted to know.

I guess I just have to come up with an answer before our next acting session.

When I looked at her back and her expectant gaze towards the door, I couldn't help but feel jealous.

I already felt this before from my previous conquests especially during the time when I was trying to steal Haruko. Most of the time, she will be with the Vice President and I couldn't do anything but wait for my chance. I never called it being jealous though. I interpreted it as something else.

I stood up next to her and like what she did earlier, I kissed her cheek.

When she felt that, she turned her gaze to me like asking for an answer to why I did it.

Ah. I don't want our act to end it like this. What we did wasn't enough for me.

I pulled her to another hug and raised her face just enough that our lips were only centimeters apart.

This act of ours is about to end. I want to make it memorable for us.

Is she also thinking what I'm thinking?

I looked at her eyes, searching for the answer to the question I asked to myself.

A few seconds later, Nami nodded and closed her eyes.

This girl, she really knew what I wanted to do. And by closing her eyes, she had just given me her consent.

To end this in a memorable note, I closed the few centimeters of distance between our lips.

It was just a quick kiss but the seconds when our lips touched felt more than just that few seconds.

Nami was blushing and smiling when our lips separated. She didn't utter a single word after opening her eyes and just turned back to face the door.

Soon enough, the door to the clubroom opened.

With this, our first act ended.

Chapter 101: Mori's Turn

We already separated from each other even before Ogawa set his foot inside the room. We didn't talk about that kiss but yeah, Nami's face turned red from that. She also felt it even with her closed eyes. In fact, she felt our kiss even better than me.

"Nanami, Onoda."

Ogawa greeted us when he entered, tagging behind him was as I expected, Mori.

She was looking down but there's a smile hanging on her lips.

Looks like she got her time with him like we planned. I wonder what happened between them.

"We were waiting. What took you so long?"

Nami asked him, with a little annoyance in her voice.

Ah. That one was her acting a little annoyed. To divert his attention to her unusual appearance.

"Sorry. Shizu-senpai requested the club's support. That's the real reason why she went to the clubroom. We had just finished it."

Ogawa hurriedly explained and then she turned to Mori.

"I already told her about the act. Onoda, she accepted to meet you, but do remember what I told you, okay? You both can go to that room behind that door to talk."

I looked at Mori and like I expected she avoided my gaze.

This girl. She only accepted because that's our deal. She got her time with Ogawa and I don't know what they did which made her smile like that. Maybe she's just happy that she got to spend time with him during the club activity without Nami's interference? I better ask her instead.

Now that our act ended, I have to pass Nami to him and my time with Mori will start.

Ah. After that kiss, I wonder what Nami will think.

"So, how was your time with Ogawa? Was it productive?"

I asked Mori after we moved to the adjacent room.

"Keep quiet, I can't hear them."

She shushed me before turning back to look and peek from a small gap on the door.

Well, I was also curious so like her, I also took a peek.

"They're just talking. Nothing to look at. What are you trying to do anyway? Do you still remember our deal?"

From the gap, I saw Nami and Ogawa next to each other, their backs turned to us. I couldn't clearly hear what they're talking about but there's some distance between them.

That guy. Like I thought, even with their alone time, he couldn't make a move with her.

That's better. I don't want to see Nami being close to that guy anyway. Our act for today might've ended but Nami, I clearly felt how she feels about me and with that kiss, I got another step ahead of this harem protagonist.

"That deal… I heard from Kazuo that you like me. That's not true, right?"

When I mentioned the deal we had, she stopped peeking and turned to me.

Mori noticed how close I was to her and that immediately made her back away.

"It's true. Why will I say I want you to be mine if I don't like you?"

I closed our distance and stood in front of her. Mori kept backing away until she reached the wall.

She's like a little animal being cornered by a predator.

Err. Do I look like a predator for her? It's not like I'm going to bite her.

"Onoda, you told me you won't force me."

She turned her head sideways, afraid to meet my gaze.

"I'm not forcing you, I'm just reminding you that this is our deal. Why is your attention still with them?"

I drew closer to her and asked.

I won't touch her or do anything to her like I promised. But this girl, my desire to steal her is still strong enough. Now that we're alone like this, my focus was now completely on her.

"Is being here with you not enough?"

She looked up and with pleading eyes, she asked.

"No. This is our time, Mori. Just talk to me, okay? I won't do anything unless you give me permission, right?"

I shook my head and reaffirmed her.

That took away her thoughts about peeking again.

I still couldn't stand that Nami was in there with someone else but since my time with her ended, I'm trying to focus my attention on Mori here.

"… Alright."

She gave up and her tensed shoulders loosened. She then stood straight and turned her attention to me.

"So, tell me, what made you so happy? Has your time with him become worthwhile?"

"Uhm…"

"Don't be shy, we're accomplices of each other. I'll also tell you what we did. Will that make you comfortable?"

"Then you first."

I let her think for a while and just observed her. This girl, she's also beautiful like Nami but yeah, the way she carries herself is somewhat lacking. She's a bit cold towards any boys except those in their circle of friends. That's also probably why she even tried to frame me.

But this girl, she's kind of weak to coercion. I remembered when I asked her for a kiss, she took her time to think before answering. 𝗇𝑶𝓥𝓮𝐥𝚞𝓈𝑩.𝗰𝚘𝑀

Maybe I could use that to steal her. She might've put her guard up around me outside these walls but we're alone and she was supposed to honor our deal, she couldn't do that anymore.

I'm now the one controlling my desire and yeah, I don't want to pass up on this chance with her.

"This girl, then let's go to that table and sit. Your legs are trembling. Was that because of me?"

"N-no, we walked around the school as requested by the President, that's why I'm kind of tired right now."

She shook her head and explained.

What kind of request was it anyway? I get that idea of their club but aren't they just the President's lackeys?

"I see, then let's go rest there. There's no chair but at least there's a table we can sit on. Here give me your hand."

I held out my hand for her. Let's try this. If she took my hand, then she's really easy to coerce.

I will use that to slowly steal her, but yeah I have to be considerate and try not to force it to the point she will take it negatively. One step at a time, I'll let her be more comfortable with me than what she was feeling when she's with Ogawa.

That harem protagonist has a passive Chick Magnet skill that even if he doesn't do anything, girls will flock towards him.

Well, maybe he did something for them to earn their affection but he's too dense to notice it.

Eh? Wait. That's just like how I was back in middle school.

Am I possibly similar to him?

No, no. That thought was scary.

Mori looked at my hand for a while before taking it. Her hand was a bit rough around her palm. Ah. She's probably good at cooking and household chores.

"You're surprisingly considerate, Onoda."

"Huh? I'm always like this, you know? If I'm not, how can I get you to like me as well?"

I told her as I supported her to walk towards the table. I took another peek in the gap and saw Nami sitting on that chair while Ogawa was at her side. They're still talking about something and that guy isn't making a move.

It's not like I want him to do something. But isn't he frustrated from our act? Or did he just swallow it down for Nami's sake? He's really like those anime characters that I hate.

"I always thought you're a pervert."

Ah. Well, I am. But since that's the first impression I showed her back in that room, she nailed that to my image.

"I'm only like this to the girls I like, Mori. And you're one of them."

"Why aren't you satisfied with Nanami? Can't we work better together if you focus on her?"

She asked. That's a good question, really but I also want her, this schemer. She's too devoted to Ogawa even if he clearly can't see her as more than a sister.

Well, I'll give her a chance, if she showed me a great rejection just like how Kanzaki showed me back in the library then I might also stop to steal her for now. I shouldn't waste my time on someone who keeps rejecting me. Time was the best weapon for them.

Stealing someone was never easy. It took me weeks before I conquered one. I just got lucky with Kana and Satsuki.

Ah. Should I call that lucky? It has to do with their circumstances so I guess it's really out of luck.

Stealing will be a bit harder now since I won't be using those methods I often use back in middle school. It now only relies on how I could seduce them and make them fall for me. Well, if I find interesting information, I'll use that to my advantage.

For example, Kanzaki's inexperience to kisses or Nami's plan to push Ogawa into a panic

But the best example for that was Satsuki.

"No, Nami is Nami and you are you. I couldn't just give up and give you to Ogawa. That guy, he won't be able to satisfy you."

I let go of her hand when she sat on the table. She whispered her thanks first before she went back to our topic.

"But Onoda, he's the one I like, even if you like me…"

Ah. Now that I think about it, where's that scheming personality of hers? From her expression just now I couldn't see it. Did I already start influencing her since that day?

"He chose Nami over you, Mori. Can't you like me as well? I'll show you I'm better than him."

"You? You won't be better than him."

She shook her head and averted her gaze again. Was she rejecting the idea of me being better than the guy she likes?

Well, I don't know a lot about him since we never had a long talk in which I could properly gauge his attitude. I'm not his friend. I only based my view of him from my observation and their words.

Chapter 102: For Now

"Mori, look at me."

I reached for her hand again. That made her turn her face back to me before she pulled her hand away.

"What?"

She asked, a bit wary about what I will say.

"Can I kiss you?"

I repeated the words I once asked her.

"You…"

It immediately triggered her memory back when I asked her with those words in that empty room.

"… You can't"

And like what she did before, there's still a pause before she answered.

"You looked away again. After all the trouble I did just to give you a chance with him."

Now, I'm using the fact that I helped her get her time with Ogawa.

"I want to give him my first kiss..."

Mori muttered softly but it's enough for me to hear it.

"I see. Okay, I can wait until after you got your first kiss with him."

"Huh? I didn't tell you that I'll let you kiss me after it."

She retorted but her face turned red from the thought. This girl. How will she get her first kiss from him anyway? Steal it from him?

"Hey, I'm just trying to be optimistic. If you want, I can give it to you."

"No. You keep asking me for a kiss. Are my lips too attractive for you?"

Eh, what's this? Why is she being smug right now?

If you show me an attitude like that, I can only reciprocate, right?

"Yes, they're too attractive for me, I keep thinking about it since then. If you gave me permission back at that empty room, we might've enjoyed it together."

"You… Stop speaking about shameless things!"

Ah. That reaction. I see. She thought she would put me off from what she said.

Then let's try again.

"Aren't you curious, though? I'm trying hard to hold myself back to kiss you, Mori. Won't you give me permission for one kiss?"

I stood in front of her and leaned towards her. Our faces were just in front of each other. She pulled herself back to get away from me but I only needed to lean down to chase after her.

"Onoda, you're forcing me right now."

She put her hand to cover her face before slowly saying those words to me.

I guess she's defeated now. She won't try doing that act again. 𝑵𝗈𝑽𝓮𝓵𝔲𝑠𝚋.𝔠𝗈𝑚

"Alright, I give up. Have it your way then."

I stepped away and sat at the corner of the table away from her.

Well, it's not that I'm giving up. I'm just trying another approach. This girl is too devoted to that guy. Maybe the idea for her to like another guy was buried deep inside her. If I couldn't dig into that then I'll stop wasting my time for now. I still have a lot of things to do. I better use my time wisely.

I stopped looking at her, turned my back and took out my phone. I turned it on and checked my mails and messages. There's a number of them now. Using my time to reply to these girls is better than trying to force someone.

She might be easy to coerce and she kept thinking about what I'm asking her but she's too devoted to Ogawa, it will take time to change her mind. Maybe letting her off for now will be good in the future.

I could feel that Mori stayed at where she was. As to what she was thinking or doing, I don't know.

I messaged Kana to wait for me at the school gates or maybe in front of the Club Building. I'll walk with her and spend time with her today. I really miss her.

She immediately replied and soon we kept mailing each other that I literally forgot for a moment that Mori was here with me. It was that enjoyable to talk with Kana.

Should I just join the Literature Club to mess with that Kenji? He's the only guy there and it looks like he's having a harem but yeah everyone in there was already marked by me. Kana is already mine, Fujii is also on its way, Otsuka-senpai, the curious girl won't be able to contain her curiosity soon and lastly, Ishida-senpai, if I'm guessing right then she's infatuated to Kenji but since he's Kana's boyfriend she was holding herself back. It will be a good idea to steal her as well.

It was exactly at the moment when Kana excused herself before I heard Mori's voice, calling out my name.

I turned around and saw her looking at me, still sitting there.

"Onoda…"

She didn't move from where she was. Did she use the time to think things through?

"What is it?"

I asked her to confirm.

"N-nothing."

She stuttered. I guess she just felt uncomfortable from the sudden silence. She still hasn't made up her mind.

"I see. I'm leaving then."

I stood up and turned towards the door. I'm really just wasting my time by staying here.

We might have that deal where she will be mine during the swap but her head is still full of Ogawa. The deal was pretty useless at this point.

"Wait."

"What? Isn't this what you wanted? I'm giving up, Mori. The deal between us. Let's scrap that."

I turned back to look at her and saw her staring at me.

I don't know what she's thinking but she didn't have any reaction to what I said.

"I thought you wanted me. That's what you told me back in that empty room. Now you told me you like me. Which of the two was the lie?"

I see. So that's what she was thinking about.

"Look, I do and still want you. I just realized that they're the same. Mori, I like you. I really do."

I answered her truthfully. It might just be my desire back then but I realized that my desire wasn't just about stealing someone from another.

And that 'want' was just a convenient word to use when I still hadn't remembered those emotions. Everyone who became my target was someone I really came to like. The reason might be too shallow but that's my desire which shaped me to become like this. Now that I control this desire, I can stop it anytime but that doesn't mean I will stop at stealing someone or should I call it liking someone else now?

I just have a clear view of what my desire truly is.

Nami, Himeko, Shio and Miwa-nee, I don't want to stop at trying to steal them. But my other targets such as Mori and Kanzaki or even Haruko's other lovers, if they really don't like me to steal them then I'll stop. For now.

Yes. For now. The changes that happened to me cleared the fog that's covering this desire but I still need to satisfy it.

"I see but you also like Nanami, right?"

"Yes. I'm not like Ogawa who can only like and be devoted to only one. So there's that. You can choose whether you still want me around to try and get you to like me or have me stop pursuing you."

I'm giving her a choice. It all depends on her now.

"Nanami. Did she know about this?"

Mori asked. I guess she's also curious why I'm still pursuing Nami when she already accepted Ogawa.

"Yes. She knew and it did bother her but she still needs me for our act."

I answered her.

I still need to think whether to tell Nami about my past. She wanted to know but I'm afraid that she'll hate the things I did. There's not only blackmailing and I'm still keeping those videos and pictures I took.

"She's my bestfriend and my rival to Kazuo. I knew all this time that I couldn't beat her. Even with my schemes and this deal we agreed upon. Now she's his girlfriend while still having you at her side."

Ah. She's probably wondering why Nami was letting me pursue her when she already has Ogawa. Will she confront her about this?

"I'll steal her from him soon. You see, I'm not fond of sharing the girl I like with another guy."

I told my girls from before to keep their relationships but yeah, I forbid them to have any physical contact with their boyfriend.

Well, I'm sure some of them broke it since my eyes weren't always with them.

"You're not normal, Onoda. Why do you like us anyway? No, even if it's just me. Why do you like me?"

Mori asked again, I guess I'll answer everything I can answer for now. I'm letting her choose. She needs to hear this as well after all.

"Do you want me to give you an honest answer or a beautiful lie?"

"Let's see. Let me hear the beautiful lie first."

"So, you can be playful like this as well. I like you because of how devoted you are to the guy you like. If that turned to me, then I will surely not let that go to waste."

"You… Alright. What about the honest answer?"

She was embarrassed by that beautiful lie. Well, it's not really a lie but that's not my real reason for liking her.

"It's because I have this desire to steal you away from Ogawa. That simple."

"Eh? Steal me from him? I'm not his girl..."

Mori was taken aback from my answer.

"I know but you like him. If you turn that liking to me, isn't that me stealing you from him?"

I smiled at her and took a seat next to her. It's kinda tiring standing in front of her.

She didn't mind it and just continued asking me her questions.

"Do you hate Kazuo? Is that why you're doing this?"

Ah. Right. From her perspective, it might be interpreted like that.

"No, I don't hate him at all. This is just my desire. Well, it now has a lot of meanings and it won't be easily understood even if I explain it to you. So, Mori, I won't make it hard for you. I like you, this won't change. But if you want me to stop, then I will."

I hate his character type though. The indecisiveness and denseness, well it's better for me if he stays like that. He has his own harem that I could steal in the future after all. My desire will truly be satisfied if I successfully took away all of them.

"Why does it sound like you're giving up easily?"

She turned to me and her questioning eyes were fixed on me.

Whatever it is in her mind, I can guess. She thinks my feelings for her are so shallow that I can easily give it up.

"Because that's really how it is, I can give up easily if you want me to stop but if you choose to give me a chance, I'll make you mine and won't let your feelings go to waste."

With all of these questions from her. I already have an idea of what she will choose.

"It's not like I haven't been confessed to before but Onoda, you're different. No. You're almost an anomaly. Telling me all this and I can see that you're saying that in all honesty. If only Kazuo can be like you…"

Anomaly eh? Well, he won't be Kazuo if he became like me. Look at him, he still couldn't hold Nami's hand even if he was envious when he was looking at us back in their clubroom.

"Well, I could still lie just to get someone before but now, I will be honest with my feelings."

This is one of the things that changed. I will be honest with them now. Well, only to the girls I like of course. The number of relationships I have is not normal after all. If someone else knew about this not only will I be condemned, they will all be implicated.

"I'm sorry Onoda. Right now, I can only see him, even if he doesn't like me."

Finally, Mori made her choice. She's still too devoted to him.

Ah. I was already expecting this. I guess it's better this way, let her see the guy he likes to be all over another girl. Surely, she will be frustrated soon.

"Alright, I'll stop trying to steal you, Mori. You'll still have your time with him, don't worry."

I smiled at her and stood up. Well, let's just say that's my gift to her. That's her chance to make the guy she likes to look at her.

Stealing her later will be more satisfying for my desire if she succeeded. It will also help me get Nami for myself if Ogawa becomes too distracted to Mori and his other harem members who will surely compete for his attention now that their strongest rival has got herself a guy.

Don't change Ogawa. I'm rooting for you to stay as you are.

"Thank you, Onoda."

Mori honestly thanked me. If she knew I only postponed it, I wonder what she would think about it?

Well, I told her that my feelings won't change. Maybe it will also chip away at her resistance every time she remembers it.

Chapter 103: Sakuma's Suspicion

I left that clubroom after that and well, I didn't take another look at what's happening at the other room where Nami and Ogawa are. It's still only the first act and there will be more in the following days. For the time being, I have to manage my time.

Yae already sent me a message that she'll be waiting for me at my house. I informed Akane about her arrival. Her answer was positive but I know she will be pouting again later.

That Yae. She will find Miwa-nee there, I wonder what will happen. I haven't told her about what happened yet.

Ah. Let's not think about it. I'll go home soon, I'll worry about it later.

Where should I go now though? Kana was still at their clubroom, should I try visiting her?

Ah. Not today.

I guess I'll take a walk for now.

Leaving the Club Building I wandered around the school and my feet led me to the Gymnasium, I could hear sounds of dribbling from inside, the practice for Basketball Club was still ongoing.

I wanted to take a look at Satsuki if she's doing well, I couldn't help but be worried about her.

I was about to push the door to the Gymnasium open when someone called out to me.

"Onoda?"

Hearing that voice, I looked back and saw Sakuma who's still in his practice uniform. He was catching his breath, looks like he ran from his club to here. Did he saw me walking towards here or it's just a coincidence that he chose to go here at this time?

And what's he doing here? Doesn't he have his own practice?

It's easy to guess why he is here anyway. To look for Satsuki. This guy...

"Yo. What brings you here? Your practice ended?"

I turned around and asked him.

"Not yet, I just want to look at Maemura. What about you? Why are you here?"

He answered but yeah his tone sounds like someone suspicious about something. This guy. Should I just come out about what relationship I have with Satsuki?

That sounds like a good idea to stop him but it's not the time yet. Maybe after I completely took his place in Satsuki's heart.

"I still can't decide on which club I want to join, I've already toured every cultural club so now I'm trying to see the Basketball Club."

I answered him and it's partly true, I don't want to join this club though. I just really want to see that girl.

"Hmm. Are you sure you're not here for Maemura?"

Still with the same tone, Sakuma asked.

Err... Isn't that obvious? Of course I am here for her. I am even hoping of pulling her out for a few minutes to continue what we're about to do earlier.

"She's part of the reason why I choose to go here, actually. Afterwards, I'll visit your club."

Using that excuse, I answered him with a straight face but it seems to have no effect on him.

"Man, that sounds like an excuse. Tell me honestly, Onoda. What are you to her?"

He didn't buy the excuse and his question was slowly turning to confirm his possible suspicion.

Err... I'm the man who took her virginity. He'll surely be speechless if he heard these words from me.

"Why? Don't tell me… Are you jealous of me, Sakuma?"

"No. I just noticed that you two were too close these days. She even called you to her house."

Was that the only thing he noticed? Ah. Let's answer him with half-truths. This guy is clearly jealous of me, just from his acts and the way he questioned me, it's clearly like that.

"Ah. I see. That thing still haunts your mind. You already know I'm helping Maemura. If I tell you that she asked me to come again this Sunday, what will you think?"

This answer will surely rile him up. He will imagine what really went on between me and Satsuki.

"That… you two are hiding something from me."

He paused a bit before finishing his answer. Looks like he imagined what really happened.

"Haa. This guy. Come on, let's talk."

I slung my arm over his shoulder and pulled him away from the Gymnasium.

"Huh? Why?"

Even if he was confused, he couldn't do anything but get dragged by me.

This guy. I have to somehow clear up his suspicion about us, that way, I can ask him about their past.

"Just come with me. Isn't it bad to stand in front of the Gymnasium just to talk?"

"Alright."

He looked reluctant but I didn't give him much of a choice anyway, so in the end he could only give up and be dragged away by me.

I brought him away to where we can talk alone. Well, I want to pry out the information about their past from him. It's better for me to hear his side first before hearing Satsuki's.

"About what I asked you earlier, it's true, Maemura told me to come again this Sunday. Do you know the reason?"

I told him truthfully when we settled somewhere far from the Gymnasium.

"How can I know?"

He's still wary of me but since I keep giving him information like this, it lowered now. Maybe he has some other thoughts inside his mind but I will keep feeding him half-truths until he became convinced again.

"It's about your past. I kept asking her about it to better help you two and she told me she will tell me this Sunday."

Well, my goal now is not to help them. Their past was not simple, for it to last this long before he made up his mind. What did he do or what really happened that he couldn't make up his mind to go to her house and resolve it once and for all?

"I see. But Onoda, yesterday, before the lunchbreak ends, you're together, right? I saw you chasing after her from the door."

Ah. This was why he became suspicious. He saw me chasing after her. I should've noticed. Aya saw me yesterday, so the possibility of him seeing me as well was high.

That's probably the reason why we heard him outside.

Ah. That made me remember the tightness of Satsuki's insides when she heard his voice. Damn, my desire to have her again got ignited.

"Yes. We were together."

There's no point lying about it when he explicitly told me this. Why didn't he say something like this yesterday, anyway? Was he hoping he could catch us in our lie?

"What did the two of you do together?"

Err... I confessed to her and poured my love for her, in the form of white seed.

"Sorry, Sakuma. I can't tell you. I promised Maemura. I even lied yesterday when you asked, remember? This is the reason."

How can I tell him what we did? He'll probably break down if he found out we had sex in school. Not just once but twice.

"Can I trust you on this, Onoda?"

You can't, of course. I already stole her from you. Sorry but I won't give her back again.

"Well, I won't tell you to trust me completely. Unless Maemura gives me permission to tell you, you won't know what happened."

It doesn't matter if he picks up the hint. At least I'm not lying to him with this. Only, I'm not giving him the whole truth.

"Alright. If you say it like that, I have no choice but to accept it."

Now he's back to his normal self. Did it work? I don't know and I don't care. Even if he suspected us, he wouldn't know the truth unless he caught us in the act.

Satsuki is mine now. I won't give her to him.

"Alright, I'll get going then. Since you already caught me trying to see Maemura, I'll come clean. It's a lie when I say I'll check out her club. I still hate athletic clubs."

I patted his shoulder just like how he did it earlier.

"Man, I know you only made an excuse. Did Maemura call you here?" 𝔫𝞸𝓋ℯ𝔩𝓊𝐒𝚋.𝒸𝗈𝓂

This guy is growing sharper by the day. Well, he might be getting closer to the truth but he won't be able to reach it.

"No. She seems down earlier so I'm going to see if she's fine now."

"I guess we have the same reason for trying to see her."

So he also noticed her condition earlier but it was too bad for him. Satsuki turned to me and not him.

"Then I'll entrust it to you, Sakuma."

I stood up and acted like I'm going to leave.

Seeing Satsuki right now won't do us any good so I turned my focus to letting this guy spill some beans for me.

"Thanks. Ah. Wait Onoda. Do you really want to know?"

He thanked me and stopped me from leaving with that question.

Finally. I got him to trust me again.

Ah. Maybe this isn't trust. Who knows what's going on in his mind right now? Hemight be willing to tell me their past now but he will surely withhold a lot of information.

"I know this sounds intrusive but I'm honestly really curious about it. If not for my constant pestering, Maemura won't agree to tell me. What really happened between the two of you?"

Will their stories be different from each other? What was that thing that he did that he became too afraid to resolve for the past years? If he really likes her, why stall it this long when he could literally walk in through their door and talk to her about it?

"It's a bit complicated Onoda. And it's not something we can just talk about. Even until today only those involved knew about it."

Tsk. So he will back out again.

"Haa. Alright, I wanted to hear your side as well but I guess I'll just hear it from Maemura."

I put on a disappointed face and sighed.

"If I tell you, can you promise me you won't tell anyone else?"

Who would want to know about it anyway?

"Of course. I'm a keeper of secrets, you know? If you haven't asked, I have a ton of secrets that were sealed in my mouth."

Well, it's all about the secrets about myself and all of my girls. Those counts, right?

"Keeper of secrets eh? But you're pretty honest with me."

He teased.

If I'm completely honest, you won't be able to tease like that, you know?

"Well, it's you and it's not like I told you everything. Only within the acceptable range."

"Ah. You're right. I'll tell you some of it, keep this a secret, alright?"

Alright, I'll settle for 'some of it'. It's better than nothing.

"That's great. Then let me buy you a drink. "

I immediately went to the nearest vending machine. It's to make sure he won't make the excuse of having his throat dry to run away. I'll listen and pry the information out of his mouth.

"This guy. Alright, listen. When I reached the 6th grade, our family moved here from the countryside. During that time, I was sent to the Maemura's to live there for a while."

He took the canned soda I bought for him and started his story.

"Eh? So your families are close friends?"

He really lived with her before. Maybe that's when she developed that deep love of hers. But 6th grade really? What will be that impactful to let it seep deep inside her?

"You could say that. My father is a junior of Maemura's father, so my father asked for a favor from her father."

He continued his story. And this time, I only waited for his next words.

"During the time I was living there, I got to know Maemura, due to her height which was taller than most boys around the neighborhood or class, she was often teased or bullied by others about it and that always leads to her getting into a fight with anyone."

"Wait, Sakuma. Are you sure it's fine for you to tell me your whole story with her? Or is this included to that 'some of it'?"

I stopped him and he scratched his head upon the realization.

This idiot. But that's a great piece of information. I can infer some things with that. Since they were living under the same roof, the two grew close to each other.

But that's not enough to explain why she came to love him. There's possibly an event that led to that.

Chapter 104: Steering his Suspicion Elsewhere

"This way you'll understand it better, right? I used to live with her."

Sakuma smiled shyly.

Ah. This guy, he's probably thinking about that time.

"You're a lucky guy. So how was it? Did you come to like her during your time there?

One thing is for sure, Satsuki fell in love with him during that time.

"We're pretty close during 6th Grade. I helped her with the bullies by receiving the beating instead of them."

Eh? So you willingly got beaten up by Satsuki? Are you a masochist?

Ah. He probably has that tendency. He's willingly receiving her insults now.

"Man. Are you proud to be her punching bag?"

"Yes? That's better than her getting into troubles for beating them up. She's kind of violent before. Plus her parents told me to look out for her."

She's still a bit violent today but she transferred most of those in her mouth.

This must be one of the reasons she fell in love with him. She must've known what he was doing for her.

"I'm sure there were other ways but you chose that."

I acted as if I'm backing away from him. This masochist. I wonder what happened to that picture we took? I told her that we will stop that plan to send it to the whole class. I planned to just show it to Sakuma through my phone after she edited it. I'll make an excuse for it, something like I found it in the internet.

"Hey! Those eyes. You look like you're looking at a freak. It's the only way if I wanted to not get in trouble as well."

He hurriedly explained himself.

"Alright. Continue your story. Looks like we're still at the intro."

Maybe what he did contributed to her feelings for him. She got an early growth spurt back then which made her even taller than most boys in their grade, resulting in her being teased in their school.

"This guy. Alright before I continue, tell me Onoda. Do you not feel attracted to Maemura?"

Err... I'm more than attracted to her. I already love her.

This guy still couldn't rest about his suspicion. He's not wrong anyway.

"I'll be lying if I told you I don't. Her height isn't an issue, she's even more attractive that way."

I've also tasted her. If not for you, she'll probably be completely mine already.

"Hmm. I see you're really honest, Onoda. Can I ask you not to make a move on her?"

This guy.? Couldn't he just say it straight to me? To stop helping Satsuki with their affairs.

"Haa. I'm trying to help you two but Sakuma, are you that pessimistic about your chances with her?"

I asked him with a serious face. I won't say yes and accede to his request or even lie just to satisfy him.

"No. I'm just jealous of how close you are to her."

He also answered seriously. 𝓃𝒪𝓥𝑒𝐋𝑈𝗌𝑏.𝒸𝑜𝕞

Satsuki is already mine so him asking like this won't make any difference.

"You know, if you keep doing this, even if it's not me, someone might get to her before you. Stop stalling for time, dude."

I'm giving this idiot a push at the back again. Well, I'm also getting impatient now, he keeps on stalling for time and that's making Satsuki confused as well.

I don't care even if he noticed that I'm purposely not answering his questions and requests which concerns my relationship with Satsuki. I won't tell him any lie. At least that much, I can do for him.

"… Your words make sense, Onoda. But the thing is, I still don't know if I can resolve what happened. I asked for a week and kept acting like this but it's still not clear whether I can resolve that."

Sakuma looked down, the worry on his face was apparent.

What's that thing he needed to resolve anyway? This is what I really wanted to know and we've already taken a lot of detours to reach here.

"Tell me about it. I don't know if I can help but let me hear it first."

I egged him.

I won't let him take another detour. This is why I am wasting my time here.

"Alright. It's not actually about Maemura. It's about her sister."

Eh? We're talking about the two of you, why will her sister be involved? And from what I heard from his mother last Sunday, it sounded like it's something that also involved Satsuki. Or maybe his mother just didn't know the real story.

"Huh? That's confusing Sakuma. If it's about her sister, why can't you talk to Satsuki or even go to their house again?"

I've just finished acting with Nami, now I'm acting again to make this guy talk.

"There was an incident before. Everything stemmed from that incident."

Incident? I see. That's why they both don't want to talk about it.

"So this incident, it involved the three of you?"

I asked curiously, hoping to hear about the whole incident.

"Yes. But Onoda, I won't tell you what the incident is about."

His next words disappointed me but I didn't let it show on my face. I already expected this so it's fine. I already heard an important piece, I'll ask Satsuki about it.

"It's fine. If Maemura also won't tell me then I won't push it."

That incident held the key to everything, I guess? Well, just hearing that involved the three of them, I started having theories about it but without confirmation from them, it will just stay as my speculation.

"Thanks. Anyway, what happened made a crack on my relationship with both of the Maemura sisters. I'm not really sure if there's a crack but I can't get the courage to set foot near their house again"

He looked up at the sky while drinking the canned soda I gave him. This guy was probably thinking about that incident.

"That crack was the thing you still couldn't resolve, right?"

He remained silent from my question so I followed it up.

"I don't know and you won't tell me about the incident but Sakuma, you told me it's really about her sister. Did something happen between the two of you?"

Of course, something happened between them. He wouldn't be like this if that's not the case. Now my curiosity towards Satsuki's older sister heightened.

He nodded as his answer to my question.

"Do you like both of them?"

What does her sister look like anyway? I didn't try finding out about her last Sunday because I was too focused on making Satsuki mine.

Ah. She will surely bring it up this Sunday. I just need to get more information about her from Sakuma right now.

"W-what? No."

Sakuma hurriedly denied it but that look on his face says otherwise.

"You stuttered there, Sakuma. I didn't see her sister last Sunday, Maemura said she left home to live near her college."

If she's already in college, then 4 years ago she's already a high schooler. What could possibly happen that involved two 6th Graders and a High Schooler?

Is her sister like her? Is she also someone taller than most guys or it's just Satsuki's unique trait?

"That's right. After my stay there ended, I never saw her sister again and I couldn't get myself to go to their house again even when she's not there anymore."

"This guy. I don't know about what the incident was about but you're clearly emphasizing about Maemura's sister, was that why you couldn't confess to her?"

He nodded again.

"Are you sure it's Maemura who you like? Or is it just her sister? Are you chasing after Maemura because she's her sister?

There's that possibility but yeah, it will only be a possibility unless I learned what the incident was about.

"That. I don't know. This is why I told you it's complicated."

He answered with a complicated expression on his face.

He's really thinking over my words. If he's really just chasing after Satsuki because of her sister then this guy, I can just push him to her. That way, it can help Satsuki forget about him.

"Dude. You better clear that up first. From what I can gather, you really like Maemura but that might be you seeing her as a replacement since she's the one closer and someone you can reach. What will you do if her sister appeared in front of you again?"

Even if I'm just assuming things here, I'll confuse him by pushing that idea in his mind.

"I…"

It's taking him way longer to respond now. Is it working?

Well, I'll ask Satsuki about her sister this Sunday and learn everything about that incident this guy mentioned.

"You know, Maemura's feelings for you are too deep. Looks like you did something that got imprinted in her heart but if you're just confusing her to her sister, then you better clear that up before you confess."

"Am I really just confusing her? All this time I was watching Maemura's back."

"Her back? Does it resemble her sister?"

He was taken aback by that question.

"…Onoda, I don't know."

In the end that's all he could answer.

"Haa. I won't ask about that incident anymore but Sakuma. Don't make a mistake. In the off chance that you like them both, who will you choose?"

He's not like me so he will have to choose one. I feel a bit bad for stealing Satsuki from him so I guess I'll try pushing him towards her sister. It will be up to him though if he can make a college girl fall for him.

I might possibly steal her in the future as well but yeah let's give him a chance. I haven't even met her sister so let's cross that thought out for now.

Because of the lack of information, I can only assume but this is enough to confuse this guy and push his attention away from his suspicions about us.

"Maemura is the one I'm looking at since then."

This guy, he answered differently on purpose. He didn't choose one.

"Are you sure you're properly looking at her? You know, if you are really after Maemura, you won't have to wait until now. It turns out there's that incident which also involved her sister and that was the thing holding you back."

Let's confuse this guy more. Make him think that it's her sister that he really likes and not Maemura herself.

"… I need to meet her sister again. But she's away from their home."

This reaction. It's working.

"Why don't we ask Maemura?"

I suggested. I'll still ask her even if it's not for this guy. I'm already curious about her older sister.

"Huh?"

"I'll ask her for you. Where she is or when will she come back."

I patted his shoulder to assure him that I will do it for him.

"Aren't you helping Maemura?"

"You're also a friend, you know? And if you confess to her and it turns out it's not really her who you like, that's just sad. I'll help you clarify what's confusing you right now."

And here's the final hammer to completely nail it.

"Thanks, Onoda."

He nodded and thanked me. Now his suspicions about us were probably sent to the back of his head. His mind will now be full of her sister.

"Alright. I have to go now. See you tomorrow. Check on Maemura for me, okay?"

I stood up and bid farewell to him. I got what I wanted and it's now time to meet Kana.

"Okay. I'll tell her you also came to check on her."

Chapter 105: Karaoke Box

"Ruki…"

Kana whispered in between our kisses. Her arms were completely clinging to me while our bodies stuck to each other.

I successfully met up with her outside the Club Building after leaving Sakuma back there.

During our walk to her bus station, Kana decided to stay a bit longer with me.

Currently, we rented an hour on a nearby karaoke box so we can have our privacy and a place to talk.

Well, we were reminded by the manager not to do things like this inside but we just couldn't help it. Even before we started playing a song to drown out any noise, I took Kana into my arms and kissed her.

"We will get caught and kicked out by the management, Kana."

I whispered to her in response to her calling my name.

"Y-you started it, you bully. Take responsibility."

Kana bit my lips after saying that. Even in this dark room, I could clearly see her reddened face. This cute and shy girl always has this expression whenever we're doing something like this.

I told her I'll tell her everything that happened but we immediately clung to each other after the door closed.

She told me to take responsibility. That just means one thing, right?

I sat and put her on my lap. Her favorite position where we're face to face with each other.

Kana happily sat on my lap like she was waiting for it and our lips met each other again along with our tongue which immediately entangled each other.

I could feel her longing just from this and maybe she could also feel mine.

The reminder from the manager already slipped off from my mind. We only have an hour, I don't know when I can see her again so…

"Kana. I like you…"

And just like everyone I confessed to, Kana paused after hearing what I said. She stared at me like waiting for a follow up to what I said.

When nothing came out, Kana put on a confused expression.

"Ah. I expected that reaction from you. This time, it's real. I genuinely like you, Kana."

"…I don't know how to respond, Ruki."

"You don't have to respond immediately. It still hasn't been resolved, right?"

Kana nodded. Her issue with that Kenji was still not resolved. Even though she's attending their club normally, they probably haven't talked it out yet or it's either one of them refused to talk about it. And it's probably Kenji, he used up two years worth of his just to get to that point with her and now, it's starting to fall apart.

He's probably already suspicious about something but he refused to believe that. He tried to be possessive but it was just Kana playing along with him. Now that I got to her, that guy will have no hope to get her back.

"Hug me, Ruki. Is this what you wanted to tell me?"

I hugged her tight like she asked and she comfortably leaned her body on me. If the staff of this Karaoke box peek through that glass window at the door, they will only find a couple being intimate to each other.

I told Kana everything that happened and she listened to every word. When I finished retelling my story, she looked up and kissed me on her own initiative.

She then smiled and started patting my head like she would a kid.

"I see. You've grown, Ruki. I'm happy to hear that."

I didn't call her out on that instead I received her praise and buried my face in her chest. The softness of it was felt by me and her scent immediately filled my nose.

She's right about that, I've grown in character, I can now openly admit to them what I truly felt for them. No more 'want', I sincerely like them which led to me stealing them from their guy.

"If you need help, tell me, okay? I'll be here for my Kana."

I looked up and declared to her.

"Un. This moment with you is already helping me. You're taking my mind off the things that's bothering me.."

Kana nodded and kissed me again.

Her words just made me more worried about her. Is she having a hard time resolving it?

"Alright. If this is the only way to help you, I'll make more time for you to relax."

I gave her a smile and we went back to our intimate kisses, not minding the place nor the eyes that could see us from that door. My hands explored her body and groped her well-developed breasts.

Kana moaned a bit when she felt that. She glared at me like I did her wrong but that didn't stop me.

I unbuttoned just the top of her uniform and started kissing her from the neck down to her mountains. The scent of her was already turning me on.

I freed her two mountains from her bra. Exposing both of it with her already erect nipples.

I gulped down as I revel at its beauty, her nipples where too erect that I'm having the urge to bite at it.

I looked up and locked gazes with her I slowly drew closer to one of her nipples. I took out my tongue to lick it.

Kana watched on as I started sucking her nipples. Alternating between the two, Kana couldn't help but moan from it.

I know I can't go farther than this here. Just from the hallway and inside this room, there's a lot of reminders not to do indecent things inside and just focus on singing. That's the real purpose of this room after all.

Kana also saw it but I already influenced her that she started grinding herself on me.

"Uhhn... You're making me want you, Ruki."

She whispered softly as she kept moving her hips on top of me while I sucked on her nipples. It soon became red and glistened with my saliva from how hard I sucked at it. 𝓝𝑂𝗏𝔢𝗅𝑢𝐬𝒃.𝗰𝑶𝕞

"Me too. We should've gone to a more private place. My bad."

I answered her and went back to kissing her lips. It's really bad to continue anymore.

I fixed her uniform and we just went back to our kisses for a good 5 minutes before we separated, out of breath.

If Kanzaki watched our kisses, she'll surely pick up something from it to help her wish to get that perfect first kiss.

Ah. Let's not think of someone I already let off. It won't be too late to target her later.

"You're just bad, Ruki. Only you can make me this lewd. My friends asked me what happened. They noticed that something changed from me. Something like a boosted womanly charm, they said."

Err... I made you a woman, of course, you'll bloom like that. Just like how it changed Satsuki the day after.

The result was probably because what they remembered wasn't the pain but the pleasure after it.

Kana hit my chest before leaning onto it again. Within that short moment, I could feel her feelings to me. She just couldn't say it because of her unresolved issues.

"Ah right. Aren't they curious about me?"

Those 3rd years with her in the cafeteria earlier. Just from how they treated her, they're all good friends with Kana.

"Un... After how I acted with you earlier, they bombarded me with questions about who you are to me."

"What did you tell them?"

"… That you're a special person to me."

She tenderly answered it while looking straight into my eyes. To call me a special person, it made me want to pamper and dote on her.

This girl is too adorable.

I put her into my arms again and we spent another 5 minutes just feeling our bodies together like that.

"Alright let's play a song for now or we might really get kicked out now."

I took the remote control and played an MV then I passed it to Kana. She's already off my lap and was sitting next to me, choosing a song she wished to sing.

When the MV I played ended, Kana stood up in front and took the microphone. As the melody started playing, she turned to me and smiled cutely.

She sang a mellow song that fitted her voice even if she's a bit embarrassed. Since I'm her only audience, someone she opened up to, she sang it clearly and enjoyed it.

Turns out she's really into singing but because of her shy and quiet nature, she's always embarrassed to sing in front of other people, even her friends.

She only always sings in their home together with her family.

I clapped my hands and watched her enjoy herself singing to a series of songs she picked.

There were times where she would just look back and stare at me lovingly. There were also times where she wanted me to join her on the chorus.

I would stand up and go behind her to have our duet. I was a bad singer but Kana didn't mind it. She even enjoyed it a lot whenever there's an opportunity. She would then pull on my hand as her way of asking me to hug her.

Ten songs later, she went back to my side, panting. I let her rest for a bit before handing her a drink. There are only a few minutes left before our time ends.

"Thank you, Ruki. This is the first time I really enjoyed going to this kind of place."

Kana smiled beautifully as she slowly drank it.

"We could always come here if you want. I enjoyed watching my Kana enjoying herself at singing."

"Un. I'll ask you to accompany me again. And next time, I'll be the one watching you from this seat."

"Eh? I'll try my best then."

I want to keep that beautiful smile on her. I probably already love this girl. To think that it will be this easy to determine if I love someone. This is not normal, I know. But I'm not normal to begin with.

Well, let's not say it to her yet. She still has a lot of things to think through. It would just burden her if I told her.

"Ah. I brought some of what I wrote with me. You told me you want to read it."

Kana suddenly remembered after she gulped down the last of her drink. She stood up again to get the papers from her bag.

There's a stack of it that could already be made into a book if she wished for it. But I guess, she's still not confident with her writing.

"I remembered that you were still far from writing one. But this, it's enough for a book."

I teased her and she turned red from shame. She remembered it.

I looked at the title and it really sounded like a detective novel full of mysteries.

I've read the first paragraph and it immediately showcased a scene where a crime happened recently. It immediately draws the attention of the reader.

"You're bullying me again. Read it and tell me what you think. I'm actually planning to submit that to a newcomer's contest."

She went back to my side and pointed at the stack of papers. So she's planning to send it in.

Does she want to become an author? Is that what she will pursue after graduating?

"Really? Then I'll properly read this."

"Thank you, Ruki. I'll wait for your feedback before sending it in."

Kana smiled. There's a hopeful look in her eyes.

Right. This is probably what she wanted to do in the future. I don't need to ask her about what she wanted to do after graduating.

I'll put in the time to properly read this and give her insightful feedback. This is the best way to help this girl.

Soon the phone connected to the counter rang. It told us if we will extend our time. Well, we only planned to talk, Kana enjoyed herself and I also enjoyed her earlier. Err. This is enough for now. I'm sure there will be more chances to be with her in the future.

After leaving the Karaoke Box, I held her hand and walked her to the Bus Station. The sun was already nowhere to be seen and there were fewer students now. I kissed her again before sending her off. Kana liked it that she was all smiles as she got on her bus.

I succeeded in telling her what happened and enjoyed a time with her. Now, it's time to go home, there's a troublesome girl waiting for me there.

Ah. Let's hope Yae behaved herself, she's the most competitive one among my girls. Well, I'm sure Akane can hold her back. Let's just hurry home and stop worrying about it.

Chapter 106: Granting her Wish

"Welcome home, husband!"

Akane greeted me as soon as I entered from the door. She then jumped at me and kissed me more intimately than normal.

It's like she was waiting for me at the door all this time or did she have a radar that could detect my presence?

Ah. Right. That should explain why she's acting like this. It's because of Yae, isn't it?

"Ah! Unfair, Shimizu! Welcome home, sweetie. Give me a kiss too!"

Like I thought. Yae showed up seconds after Akane. She's still in her uniform but this girl, is that an apron she's wearing on top of it?

Ah. Only now did I notice that Akane also has an apron on top of her clothes, so they're both at the kitchen? Are they cooking our dinner together?

Well, this is new.

Akane really detected my presence when I arrived at our doorstep that she immediately rushed to the door to greet me first. Does she have a Ruki-radar now?

Yae who I haven't seen since last Sunday also reached in for a kiss. I didn't reject her and gave her one, partly because she's asking and partly because I really missed her.

Like Akane, Yae clung to me after the kiss. This girl was conveying how much she missed me as well as her intention to not lose against Akane.

"You girls, you left the fire on."

Miwa-nee's voice also sounded right after. Unlike the two, I could see her only looking at me. She's restraining herself not to jump at me like these two or that's just me imagining what was in her mind.

Though she's not wearing an apron like the two, she looks more of a housewife than them.

Err... she really is a housewife.

"I'm home, Miwa-nee."

I greeted her and she welcomed me back. Miwa-nee was showing her adult front. I guess she didn't want to be like these two affectionate girls.

"Husband, I'll get jealous if you only greet Miwa-nee."

This silly girl. You're always jealous, you know? Well, that's my fault why she's feeling like this anyway.

"I hate to say it but she's right, sweetie."

Not you too, Yae.

"You two, stop competing. You both jumped at me, is that not a greeting?"

To go home with 3 beautiful ladies waiting for you. This is a fulfilling life, eh?

At least it's not as chaotic as I expected. Yae behaved herself. The fact that I called her to meet me was probably enough to satisfy her.

After removing my shoes and changing to house slippers I moved to the living room while the two went back to what they were doing in the kitchen.

These days, the times I have to cook are lessened and well, the dishes I got to eat now have a variety unlike before where I could only cook what I can cook.

The previous silent house was also turning livelier. With the addition of Akane at first, now Miwa-nee and Minoru were also here adding color to the colorless house before.

Miwa-nee was watching TV with Minoru but since the kid's attention span is still short, he soon grew bored of watching and went to his toys leaving the two of us.

"You brought another girl home. I should stop being surprised at how many you have."

With her eyes still fixed on the TV Miwa-nee commented.

"Are you jealous, Miwa-nee?"

I tried teasing her to see her reaction but it only earned me a hit to my head.

"I told you, not in front of Minoru."

Miwa-nee reprimanded me. The hit on my head wasn't painful but yeah, Minoru might start asking questions if I keep showing him how close I am to his mother.

Maybe I'll find the time to talk to Miwa-nee again and ask about their plans. If her husband suddenly shows up one day, I don't know how she will react. If he asks her to go back with him, will she accept it?

And as to why they fought that led to her leaving their house, I also wanted to ask her about the reason.

After apologizing to Miwa-nee, I stood up and went upstairs. Since they're still cooking dinner I decided to change my clothes first. And during it, I also thought about how to deal with Yae.

To this girl who wanted me to fall for her, I could finally tell her the words she always wanted to hear. Apart from Akane, she's the only one who always demanded it, Haruko only silently accepted that I couldn't feel that emotion back then

My original room will be used again, I guess.?It's already this late, Yae might stay the night here.

Akane knew my intentions for inviting Yae and she would concede her time with me again like what she always does.

About Miwa-nee though, not only will she ask about Yae, Yae will also ask about her for sure. She's the most competitive and she's probably more threatened by an adult like Miwa-nee than Akane.

Ah. Let's eat dinner first and decide what to do later.

As soon as I started descending the stairs, a mouth-watering aroma filled my nose from the kitchen. They're already doing the finishing touches for our dinner and even Minoru was looking forward to eating it.

It's a bit surprising that the two of them can work this well together. Looking at their backs busily working there, I'm already restraining the urge to go behind and hug them both.

Well, if I did, the dinner would be delayed again so I restrained myself. I spent the spare time watching TV with Miwa-nee and checking my phone for messages.

Minutes later, the dinner was served. Akane and Yae both sat at my sides. And like it's a normal thing to do, they both tried to feed me by themselves, competing on whose food on their chopsticks will I take.

"You cooked this together, why are you competing on this now?"

I used a slightly annoyed tone. I want them to get along together and not like this.

Why is it that they can work together in the kitchen and not when it concerns me?

Haa. What should I do with these two?

Take them together on the bed? Ah. That might work but there's a possibility that they will just compete again.

Miwa-nee read the situation well and what she did dumbfounded the two.

She also reached her chopsticks to me. Now there's a 3rd option.

Well, they're all the same food, what's the point of choosing one? I ate what's on Miwa-nee's chopsticks before singing praise for the food these two girls cooked together.

"Un. This is delicious. You two, keep working together like how you did in the kitchen. You're both my girls so I want you two to get along, okay?"

I alternately looked at them and they were both looking down in shame. I patted both of their heads before eating what's on their chopsticks as well.

That woke them up and they both happily smiled.

"So, how was it? How did it feel being stuck in that situation?"

Miwa-nee commented after. She had a teasing smile on her face. Minoru was looking up, confused at what's happening while he quietly ate his food.

"Hmm. It's enjoyable as long as they don't compete like that."

I answered truthfully. Well, I purposely said that for them to hear.

Akane and Yae reflected from what they did. Throughout the dinner, they restrained themselves from doing a stunt like that again.

After we're done eating, I once again expressed my appreciation for what they did in the kitchen.

Hearing that from me, their spirits were lifted.

Miwa-nee brought Minoru upstairs to put him to sleep after cleaning up so I was left with the two in the living room.

Akane settled herself on my left side while Yae did the same on my right. They both took one of my arms and put it around their shoulder.

"Shimizu, you're already living with him here, can't you give us time?"

Yae started.

This girl…

"I'm his wife. It's normal for me to be at his side."

Akane responded in a teasing tone.

Well, she already knew my intention. Most probably she's just doing this to annoy Yae. Her competitiveness also heightened when it comes to Yae.

Yae glared at her and pouted. In the end, she didn't retort back and just snuggled closer to me.

"Alright, here you go again. I told you two to get along with each other, right?"

It's all fun and fulfilling to have a harem but if it's like this where they will try and compete in front of me, it's a bit tiring to control the situation.

Well, I won't give up on any of them. I'll keep trying to have them get along with each other.

"Sorry, husband. I'll stop and listen to you."

Akane conceded first. Her apology was genuine. She then looked at Yaeko and bowed at her.

"I'm sorry too, sweetie. I'm just jealous that she's living here with you."

Since Akane already apologized Yae followed after. For sure it's not only her who was jealous of Akane. Haruko was one, that's why she came up with that request to stay here once a week. Just that unlike Yae, Haruko was great at restraining herself.

"Akane, you know you're always the most special. I'll make it up to you, okay?"

I turned to her and gave her a kiss on her cheeks.

"And Yae, as you've heard, Akane is special that's why she's here. Get along with her, do it for me, please?"

"Yes, sweetie. Just don't forget me, okay? Shimizu is here with you, while Haruko is attending the same school. I had to restrain myself from going to your school to meet you."

Yae voiced her thoughts. I expected this, out of the three closest to me, she's the only one who would have a hard time to meet me.

It will depend on when I will tell her to meet me like today.

"Hmm. Husband, I'll prepare our bath."

Akane stood up after saying that. This is her way of conceding her time again. Like always, she's helping me be alone with another girl.

"Un. I'll follow you soon."

I answered her.

"Thank you, Shimizu!"

Yae shouted at Akane before she disappeared from our sight.

At least she knew that it's Akane's way of giving us time.

"So, now that we're alone. How are you these days?"

"Missing you, you dummy. I thought you already forgot about me again."

Yae stopped restraining herself and she quickly stuck herself closer to me. She's like a kid who missed her parents.

I looked at her eyes and there's a hint of a tear forming there. This girl…

"Don't overthink it. I already told you that you're mine. There's no way I'll forget about you."

I brushed her hair with my fingers while saying all those.

I can confidently say now that I love this girl. Even now, I can feel that she's pouring in her love for me. It was just last Sunday but maybe for her, it's already a long time since we met at that special place for us.

"Fall for me then. You know, that's what I always wish for."

Muttering the same words she always say to me, Yae longingly clung closer, I could already feel the warmth of her body and the sound of her heartbeat.

"I've already fallen for you, you know? I love you, Yae."

Even before she could react, I kissed her lips and poured in my feelings for her. Loving her was something that was bottled up at the corner of my mind when I still haven't remembered that emotion. Same with Akane and Haruko, all of it was there, just that, I couldn't tap on it.

After remembering it, all of it was opened. I already poured it on Akane and Haruko, only her was left and now I'm letting her feel it through my actions.

I could see her wide-opened eyes from surprise and her lack of reaction because of my sudden confession to her. But all of it was brushed off when I didn't let go of her lips.

Soon she responded to it and it grew more intense as time passed.

"Say it again…" 𝒩𝗈𝗏𝑒𝓛𝑈𝚜𝑏.𝑐𝓞𝑚

She whispered when she took a break to catch her breath.

"I love you. I finally remembered those emotions and I don't know if you felt it but I already loved you way before. I'm just too dumb to recognize it back then."

I won't tell her how all of them have almost the same reactions when I uttered those words to them. Well, it's rude and they might take it in a bad way. I'll just let them feel how I really feel. Even if this isn't normal in the eyes of other people, this is already the norm for me and maybe for all my girls who accepted this arrangement as well.

"I felt like last week was a nightmare when you rejected me once again and now this week, it turned to this dream-like situation where my wish was answered and granted to me. Sweetie, I'm not dreaming, right?"

Yae muttered quietly as she slowly lost herself to what I said. This was always what she asked for me even back before I cut her off. Now that she got it granted to her, she thought she was in a dream. Afraid to wake up from it.

These girls, they all have this same kind of reaction.

Even if I added more girls, Yae and Haruko will always be up there just below Akane. Ah. Of course, others also have that chance to be this special to me.

Chapter 107: A Rather Busy Night (1) *

When Yae calmed down from my confession, Akane appeared from the bathroom. It's like she really timed her appearance until that moment.

The tub was already heated. Since it's now part of our daily routine, I went in with her while Yae reluctantly went upstairs, to my previous room.

Yae already called her house to tell them that she will stay at her friend's house. I already expected it to lead to this when I asked to meet her after school.

Keeping in mind what my Mom told me, our current room was exclusively for me and Akane. No one can set foot in there apart from the two of us.

Like what we always do, we washed each other's bodies and climb together in the tub.

Akane didn't mention Yae or any other girls, for her, this alone time with me was precious so she didn't want to waste it talking about them. It's a different story if it was me who brought it up though.

Everyday was filled with me interacting to girls so there's really no choice but to mention them.

We had an idle talk about how our day went. Akane talked about what went on for her. She mentioned what club she joined in, Home Economics Club.

When I asked her about the reason why she chose that club, she answered that it was to learn how to be a proper housewife.

Of course, those who were trying to woo her also joined there but since she had her friends with her, no one managed to approach her. They knew about us since it's already widespread in their school how the two of us were living together and with the faint marks on her neck, she became the most popular 1st year.

At how elegant she carried herself, there were still guys who denied the rumors about us to themselves, thinking Akane was still their pure idol from Middle School.

Ah. Maybe when there's time, I'll visit their school and show them that those rumors were true.

Err. There's a possibility that I will meet more of my girls there, especially those who I haven't planned on meeting yet and those who distanced themselves from me. I wonder how they reacted about the rumor between me and Akane? That's also a good idea to once and for all deal with them. If they will stay with me or not. It's all their choice. If they choose to stay, it's a matter of course that I will all treat them equally.

I may be stalling for time but I also kind of missed them. Each of them has their own unique traits. Maybe that's why I was also attracted to them before when I was decided to steal them from their boyfriends.

Akane was also invited to the Student Council of their school but rejected it. Like Haruko, Akane doesn't want to stress herself on that busy post.

Well, her reason was always me. She doesn't want to cut her time because of the work that she will have to do if she joined them.

I told her how it's fine for her to accept it but she insisted on rejecting. This girl is too devoted to me that I'm worrying if she was enjoying her high school life. She's like Mori who devotedly likes Ogawa, just that Akane and I are mutually in love to each other.

I'm sure that if I asked her, she would just answer how happy and satisfied she was about us.

After she's done talking about her day. My turn to tell her everything that happened arrived.

I didn't spare any details from her. Only to Akane will I share everything. I want her to know everything that happened to me. She listened to me without voicing out any of her thoughts and when I'm done, she turned to me and kissed me while whispering her 'I love you'.

If it was any other normal couple, just one of the things I shared was enough for the relationship to end but Akane, she took all of it in without any words of dissatisfaction. She would then convert what she felt to her want to be pampered by me.

We finished our bath after we're done sharing what happened to our day.

Currently, we're on the way to our bedroom while carrying her in my arms.

Akane was happily snuggling at me. Like a kid who wanted to be pampered, she requested for a princess-carry.

She really wanted to be spoiled to disperse what she was feeling. No matter how accepting she is, this will still happen. We have just started living together, there will come a day when she will be used to it but for now, I'll ease her mind through spoiling her.

Without putting on our clothes, I dropped her to our bed and took off the towel covering her body.

I already lost count at how many times I saw her fully naked body but my attraction to her never wanes.

I also took off the towel covering me before I got on top of her. My hands started caressing her alluring body as I took her lips into a kiss. Exploring the inside of her mouth using my tongue and exploring each and every curves of her body using my hands, my lust and desire for her was ignited. 𝔫𝑜𝓥𝖾𝓁𝓊𝓈𝔅.𝒸𝚘𝓶

From her lips, I went down to her neck. Kissing and licking every part of her where she felt good, I slowly went down to her twin peaks which were already erect from the stimulation I gave her.

Her arms circled around my head and grabbed at my hair. Akane was already moaning out of pleasure from what I'm doing.

Then my kisses circled the area around her nipples. I made sure not to touch it in a bid to tease her.

"H-husband, stop teasing me... Haahhh suck it."

And that proved to be effective.

I pinched her nipples with my fingers, teasing it further. I watched on as her moans grew louder.

She looked at me with pleading eyes as she mutter the same words. Then as if she thought I will continue teasing her, she pushed my head down to it.

I guess that's enough teasing for now.

Taking in one of her nipples inside my mouth, I played with it using my tongue. One of my hand then went down to her sacred place.

Tracing her body using my finger from her navel down to her slit, her legs opened giving my finger access to it.

My hand was instantly covered by her love nectar. Rubbing her pussy and her swollen clit. Akane's moans grew louder. Feeling the stimulation from her nipples and her pussy, she immediately reached her first climax for the night.

"H-husband, I want you inside me..."

Akane whispered in my ears after recovering from it.

She was panting for breath when she raised her body and reached in for my erect cock. Her hands started stroking it as her tongue peeked out of her mouth to lick the tip.

The way her tongue moves stimulated my desire to take her. After days of doing it with her, she's now too skilled at giving me pleasure.

When the tip started glistening from her saliva, I watched her as she took it inside her mouth.

Akane still couldn't take it all but she used her hand to stroke it at the same time she started bobbing her head up and down, sucking on my cock like a lollipop.

She kept sucking my cock until it twitched indicating my near climax. She immediately stopped and took it out from her mouth.

She looked up at me and pleaded with her eyes.

To turn her this erotic in a few days, I guess I'm really good at corrupting girls, eh?

Since we're both thinking the same thing, I pushed her down the bed and went back on top of her. Her legs were already spread open by herself, waiting for my cock to plunge inside her.

Starting with the tip, my cock easily slid inside her. Her tight insides immediately clung to it in an attempt to squeeze it.

Any other lingering thoughts were already pushed to the back of my mind as it is now fully occupied by Akane and her alone.

"Aahh! We're finally one again."

Akane moaned out when my cock reached her deepest part, the tip kissing the entrance to her womb.

"Haaahh. You're still this tight, wife."

Whispering those words to her, I started moving my hips to pound her pussy.

With every thrust, she would moan out loud while she tried to tighten up her insides to better feel my cock going in and out of her.

"Haah…Kiss me."

Akane's arms once again circled around me as she pulled my head down for her to reach my lips. Feeling her tongue invade my mouth, I didn't want to lose out. Entangling it with my tongue, we started sucking each other as while hips started moving faster.

Soon enough we ran out of breath and I focused on thrusting my hips feeling every corner of her insides.

"… If you could see your face right now, it's too erotic that it turns me on further."

I looked at her crimson face with her lips slightly parted as soft moans leaked out of it.

I really love this silly girl. Never will I get tired of her.

My hips never stopped moving and whenever her pussy twitched, she went closer to climaxing. She even tried to move her own hips.

After getting tired from that, Akane pulled me down to her side.

Changing our position to the side, I raised her leg up and resumed pounding her tight pussy. Our bed were already drenched by the love juices she produced.

"Aahh... Haahh... I love you, husband."

She took my hand and put it on her breasts, asking me to knead it. I pinched her nipples and started moving my hips faster.

These days, we always change the bedsheet because of the number of times we did it.

Soon enough, she climaxed from the intense movement.

And not long after, I also felt my cum reaching its limit. Finishing in that position, my semen poured again deep inside her.

"I love you too, Akane."

My cock were still pumping semen inside her. If not for the contraception, the amount I already poured inside every girls is enough for them to get knocked up with my child.

Those will run out soon so I should start trying to pull out before I cum. But I'm already used to cumming inside...

After I pulled my cock out of her, Akane turned around and snuggled close to me. Satisfied from what we did, she nestled into my arms with her eyes closed.

"Husband, before you go to Yaeko, put me to sleep first."

Akane softly murmured.

Of course, she knew I would slip out again. Akane may be the closest to me but she's also the one at the hardest position. Every time this happens, she will just quietly accept it.

"Alright. I'll stay here until you fall asleep."

I embraced her and let her be comfortable in my arms. We're just starting at this setup where we live together, she knew everything about me especially about how I could not stop this desire. I may have control on it now but that doesn't mean I don't have to satisfy it anymore. In fact, I'm more inclined to satisfy it further.

"By morning, you'll see me beside you again. I will keep coming back to your side..."

I now have a lot of girls who I love and like, even so, that's not enough to satisfy this desire. It will surely grow to a higher number but I'll make sure to take care of all of them.

"Un. I know. I'll soon get used to this so you won't have to worry about me anymore. When I do, I'll help you with all my heart, husband."

"You don't have to, you know? And even if you couldn't get used to this, I'll always be here to remind you that you're the most special. I've known you the longest and we're loving each other since our childhood. No one can break that."

Akane silently took in my words and she responded by clinging to me and kissing me passionately again. She understood all of that but yeah, it will take time to get used to everything.

Soon, I could feel her softly snoring in my arms. We're still naked so I covered her with a thick blanket.

I kissed her forehead before standing up and putting on a shirt and underpants.

Another girl was waiting for me. Well, if she fell asleep then I'll go back to Akane's side after checking on her.

But yeah, it's Yae. When I first brought her here, she couldn't sleep at all even after everything we've done.

I quietly closed the door to our room before walking towards my previous room. Even before I could put my hand on the knob, the door opened revealing Yae, in a nightgown I picked for her.

It fits her too well that just looking at her already awakened my desire to take her into my arms.

"You're finally here, sweetie."

Her arms circled on my neck as soon as I appeared in front of her.

"I want to hear it again, your declaration of love."

Yae whispered before reaching in for a kiss.

I still haven't entered the door and she's already like this. This is her own way of curing the sadness she felt when I was with Akane.

"Won't you let me in first?"

It feels weird asking someone to enter my own room. Ah. Let's not think about useless things.

Yae answered by pulling me inside and closing the door.

Like Akane, Yae refrained from asking about other girls or what I did with Akane before coming here.

"I love you, sweetie. Can you let me feel the words you told me earlier?"

"Isn't that why I'm here?"

Ah. I tried restraining myself but just looking at her, I couldn't continue it any longer.

Picking her up from where we are, I traversed the few steps and put her down to my bed. Yae bashfully smiled as she stared intently at me, expectantly waiting at what I was about to do.

Chapter 108: A Rather Busy Night (2) *

"Haahh, sweetie. You told me you'll tell me what happened."

Yae muttered after we're done doing one round. My cock was still buried inside her as she gasped for breath. I slowly pulled it out and my semen started spilling out from her hole.

The disheveled nightgown looked so sexy on her that I didn't take it off even with our intense lovemaking. Just looking at her again, half naked with only that thin cloth covering her my desire for her was reignited.

For a year that I haven't seen her, that one meeting last Sunday wasn't enough to fill in the longing I bottled up for her. It doesn't matter how many times I reflected, I'm really too dumb to let go of her back then.

Now that her long wait was over. Yae happily accepted everything I was conveying to her.

"Oh. I will. I just missed my Yae."

I kissed her neck again. The marks which I left here last Sunday have already faded. But tonight, she got another set of hickeys. She's even the one who urged me to give her more.

"I missed you too. It's been 4 days and you changed again. I'm not saying I hate this change, I just want to stay by your side again. To watch you when you undergo a change like this..."

Her voice sounded helpless but we're at different schools and I couldn't invite her to live with me here. Not now at least.

"Should I transfer to your school? Haruko is lucky. She can easily see you there."

Yae lamented. She didn't know that even Haruko couldn't see me everyday. Well, there's that one time where she sought me out and she could always do that but she's restraining herself.

This girl's idea. It's still the 2nd week, you know? And our school's not even that far apart.

"You don't have to, I'll always see you when I have time."

We're conversing while I continue raining more kisses. At times she will moan out and squirm like she's feeling good. We just did one round and she started feeling horny again.

Ah. Now that I remember, we often do this before. Well, our topic was on how she could help me during those times. Back then, Haruko was often busy with the Student Council and I was still ignoring Akane so Yae was my closest confidant and aide with my conquest of stealing someone's girl.

Now the situation has changed, Akane and Yae traded places.

"Then what can I do for you, sweetie? I wanted to help you again like before."

As I thought, she brought this up again.

This was the reason why she was too competitive to Akane and Haruko. She could no longer help me since we're at different schools.

Haa. What should I do with this girl?

"Hmm. For now, just get along well with Akane. She might be special but you and Haruko were both just below her. Can you do that for me?"

For now, this is what I wanted the most. If they will stay with me until the end, a little competition to take my attention is fine but more than that, it will just be troublesome to deal with.

"Un. If that's what you want. I'm older so I'll look out for her. I already had my wish granted by you, I'm more than satisfied."

Yae pulled me up and rolled over on top of me.

Having our positions reversed, she's now the one kissing my neck, I allowed her to give me a hickey but only to the obscure spot where no one can see. Well, that's enough to make this girl happy.

"Right. Both of you are so beautiful that boys keep on pursuing you. If you two can help each other to keep them away, then I'll be at ease."

My hands were back on her butt. I squeezed and fondled it which made her grind on me again. 𝒏𝗈𝒱𝓔𝐿𝓤𝚜𝕓.𝒞𝓞𝔪

"To think that you of all people will worry about this. Sweetie, I love this change within you."

I could feel the irony when I forbid any other guys to get close to them when here I am trying to conquer more girls.

This is just how I am, I opened the choice for them to get out if they don't like this setup. Maybe in the future someone will ask for my permission about leaving. Even if I wanted to keep them for myself, if they're not happy anymore then there's no point. If that really happened, I will cut whoever chose that completely, even if they want to come back after some time, I wont make an exception. They made their choice, I'll focus on everyone who stayed.

"You're all mine. I don't want any other guy buzzing around you."

Kana and Satsuki still have their issues so I couldn't tell them this but once those were resolved, I will also utter these words to them.

Err. This is my possessive side manifesting strongly. If before I'm still reveling about filling up my desire by letting them stay with their boyfriends. That wouldn't work anymore. There were other ways to fill it up so the thought of sharing them to other guys even if in name only is something I couldn't take anymore.

"Like you said, we're yours so they can only dream about us. You know how much I love you. No one can steal me, ever."

Her words ignited more of my desire to pour what I'm feeling for her. As she felt my cock harden once more. She didn't wait for me to ask and just lifted her butt up. Aiming my cock on her pussy, she inserted it by herself.

Yae moaned lustfully as she started moving on top of me. I let her do what she wanted and just supported her endeavour. Lifting her butt up and down, Yae rode me in a cowgirl position

My hands reflexively groped her butt as I guide her.

We both moaned out in pleasure as she moved faster. I pulled her down and reached for her erect nipples that were peeking out from her nightgown. I sucked on it like a baby and more moans from the pleasure I'm giving her escaped her mouth.

"Are you fine with this, Yae? I couldn't stop getting more but here I am forbidding you to even get close to another guy, no matter who it is."

And even with what we're doing. We stayed on topic.

"It's a bit late to ask that, sweetie. Haaahh...I've long accepted this part of you. Huaah... Even if you get more… uuuhhh… when we're alone like this, you always make me feel like I'm the most special for you. T-that's enough. Aaahhh I'm cumming!"

Ah. Right. I was asking a question which was already answered by her even without the use of words. She even silently accepted the way I dealt with things before.

This girl. She climaxed while talking. I let her rest first and just continued sucking on her nipples. It's already too red from all the sucking I did earlier but it's never enough.

"I'm really lucky to have you, Yae."

I sincerely whispered to her. My cock was still deep inside her. Her insides tightened on it when she climaxed and it's still squeezing hard on me.

"You're truly a lucky guy, sweetie. Take care of me, okay? Even if it's not me who you will marry in the future, I'll never leave your side."

Yae responded after catching her breath.

"I'll never let you go, Yae. I'm taking away that option to leave. Is it fine?"

"Idiot sweetie. You don't need to ask. Now, let me feel how much you love me again."

She never shies away from me and just gives me that beautiful smile she always shows me.

And after that, she started moving her hips again. The pleasure around my cock started building up again.

My tongue kept playing her nipple inside my mouth and that further stimulated Yae.

"Aahh… Sweetie, I love you… Haah... Right. Do remember the guy I told you?

Yae started another topic and this time it's about that…

That guy? Is he the one trying to woo her? This girl, is she trying to rile me up by mentioning him?

I didn't answer her and just continued sucking her nipples. My tongue played with it until it turned rock-hard. When I bit it lightly, Yae moaned out and her insides tightened and squeezed my cock as her love nectar continued gushing out of her.

"That guy... haaahh… When he saw my neck full of your marks, he didn't ask any questions and just simply avoided me like I'm dirty."

Yae continued mentioning that guy in between her moans from the pleasure we're giving each other.

Ah, this girl. She still wanted me to fill up my desire. I guess this was what she came up with for her to help me.

I have to think up something to ease this girl's worry about not being able to help me.

That guy's reaction was understandable. The girl he's trying to woo showed up full of hickeys after the weekend and she didn't even bother covering it up.

"My Yae was never dirty. But that's good for him, he should stop eyeing out my girl."

I declared with a slightly annoyed tone. Yae's attempt at igniting my desire succeeded. I could feel my fully erect cock deep inside her harden further that I also started moving my hips.

"Aaahh... I'm happy, that works."

As I thought, that's her purpose for mentioning that guy.

This girl. Should I punish her? Ah. Any punishment will be seen as a reward by her.

Haa. There's no use thinking about that. I'll just keep pouring my love for this girl. The night is still young but I have to go back to Akane's side soon.

Using the time I have with Yae, we keep filling up our desire for each other. From that sitting position, we changed at least three times and drowned ourselves into our lust. And in between that, I told her the things she wanted to know. About Miwa-nee and the reason about my desire. What happened and what will happen from now on.

I've only done it with Akane once tonight but Yae, we're now at our third round.

Yae kept trying to take the lead from me but I never let her. This night will be me letting her feel my love for her.

Soon, after cumming inside her for the third time. Yae finally felt satisfied and dropped her body down on top of me.

"Sweetie, let's do it one more time tomorrow. This is not enough."

I heard her feeble voice whispering.

Even after she exhausted herself…

One more time, so she wanted to do it four times originally? Is it because of the four days I haven't seen her?

"Alright. Tomorrow. Take a rest for now, okay? I'll stay here until you fall asleep."

When she heard my last sentence, a flash of sadness passed by her face.

I know. If it's before, I will stay with her throughout the night. But right now, Akane's waiting for me. I told her I'll come back to her side.

Maybe in the future, when Akane fully accepted everything. She herself will propose the idea to let me stay with another girl throughout the night.

Yae didn't voice out what she felt and just nodded before snuggling to me.

I watched her get comfortable using my chest as her pillow and not long after, her drowsiness from exhaustion sent her into dreamland. There's a smile on her lips as she mutters my name lovingly.

As to what kind of dream she's having right now. I guess it's colorful enough that she could smile like this.

Remembering last Wednesday, her face back then looks so sad especially when I rejected her back in that cafe. Her face that's trying not to let her tears spill out. I don't want to see that again. I have to make sure they can keep this smile on their faces.

It will be hard for them to adjust now that I'm taking in everyone and realizing that I love most or probably all of them but I'll do everything to make this work. Not only for them but for me as well.

Chapter 109: A Rather Busy Night (3)

After I left the room. I found Miwa-nee in the living room, drunk and asleep.

Haa. Why didn't she go back to their room?

She already finished two bottles and was probably in the process of downing the next when she got knocked out by it.

My father will probably cry when he arrives home and sees his collection emptied by this beautiful aunt of mine.

She looked so defenseless right now but yeah, I'm not someone who would assault an unconscious woman. But I couldn't just leave her here.

I first went to the fridge to drink water to quench my thirst. This was the reason why I went down, those three rounds with Yae made me sweat a lot.

After drinking, I poured another glass of cold water before bringing it to the drunk Miwa-nee.

I nudged her for a bit but it seems she's too drunk to wake up from just that.

"Miwa-nee."

I went closer to her and whispered into her ears.

Her eyes opened and as soon as she saw me, she pulled me into her arms.

"Ruki… you're finally here. Are you going to steal me from him now? I've been waiting for you all this time."

Her words were still a bit incoherent but it's enough for me to understand it. What happened to us last night was just her giving in to her lust and love for me. She loved me and she still probably does but because she's legally married, I still haven't successfully stolen her even if we already crossed that line. 𝗇𝒪𝔳𝗲𝑙𝔲𝓈𝔅.𝑐𝗈𝚖

I didn't plan to make a move on her tonight. Even if I still want to take her in my arms again, Miwa-nee is too drunk right now that it will just be me taking advantage of her.

Though I wanted to talk to her about her problems, doing it while she's drunk is also not an option. I want her sober mind so she could think clearly.

Miwa-nee hugged me tight like she's afraid I will disappear if she loosened up her arms. I could feel her love for me from this.

"Miwa-nee, you're drunk. Let me take you to your room."

I reached my hand for the glass of water I poured for her. I lifted it up and purposely let it touch her face.

When she felt the coldness of the glass, her eyes opened wide, a little soberness came back to her. Her arms loosened up which allowed me to escape her embrace.

"Huh? Ruki? Why are you here?"

Questions poured out from Miwa-nee's mouth. Looks like she didn't remember what she said earlier and was only confused as to why I am here with her.

"Drink this first. You got yourself drunk again."

I handed her the glass and even though she's still a bit confused, she drank it like I asked.

Soon, Miwa-nee sobered up a bit from that water and she couldn't help but be embarrassed when she remembered what she did.

Those words were probably something she couldn't say to me when she's sober. Waiting for me all this time, eh? I never heard any news about her during the 5 years of her married life. Maybe she intentionally did that, she wanted to forget me after all. But something happened and she had no choice but to go back here.

Well, I remembered that this kind of scenario also often happened when she's still living with us years ago. I didn't always see her drunk before but if by chance I happened to see her drunk, I always bring her water just like what I did just now. After that she will just hug me tight, I remembered struggling to get out of her embrace back then and most of the time I will just give up and sleep with her there.

Err. Right now I can't do that when there's someone still waiting for me.

"Can you stand up, Miwa-nee? Here, hold onto me."

Offering my shoulder to her, I helped her stand up. She didn't reject it nor say anything else. Maybe because she's still embarrassed that I see her drunk like this again. Now I wonder what happened that led to this scenario where she got herself drunk again? She went up early with Minoru.

Err... maybe she heard Yae or Akane's moans?

Most probably she did hear them but that's not enough for her to drown herself in alcohol again.

I couldn't ask her right now, even if she became a bit sober from that glass of water, the effect of alcohol is still there.

Well, that could wait. She needs to rest right now and so do I.

After putting her back to their bed and making sure Minoru was still asleep, I gave Miwa-nee a goodnight kiss. Though I intended for it to be just a peck, it turned to a passionate one when Miwa-nee's tongue turned aggressive, locking my lips for a good few minutes. She only let go when she felt satisfied from it.

Now that I'm looking at Miwa-nee again and alongside Minoru. Her strange words from before suddenly came back to my mind. I think she mentioned something about Minoru resembling us both.

Is it possible that I am his…? But Miwa-nee never mentioned nor brought it up. Even when they first arrived here, she introduced me as a big brother Minoru.

The night when she imprinted those thoughts which shaped my desire. Did something else happen as well?

My memory of that night was too vague. Normally I should've woken up if she kept on whispering in my ears but that never happened. The morning after that, her soon-to-be husband picked her up and that's the last time I saw her until she appeared before me again, with Minoru in tow.

I circled their bed and arrived at the side where Minoru is. And like Miwa-nee said, this boy really resembled me and her…

His age. He's already 4 years old, he was conceived right after their marriage. Or possibly before that…

Ah. Why am I thinking about this now? Only Miwa-nee knows the truth. I should stop assuming things that I have no way to confirm yet. I also wouldn't be able to ask Miwa-nee about this because if I did, there's a possibility that she will leave this house. I couldn't risk that.

Right now, I'm fond of that boy. I'm even willing to be his father when I successfully steal his mother. I'll wait for Miwa-nee to open up to me, for now, I'll take care of the both of them to the best of my abilities.

But if what I am thinking is true, then that means I'm already a father to a child...

I can't deny that it will be too heavy for my mind to process it. How should I say it? I'm not ready for that truth?

Haa…

I released a sigh before covering both mother and child with their blanket before quietly leaving the room.

I convinced myself not to think about it for now. I love Miwa-nee, if that turned out to be true then I'll accept everything.

I went back to our room and to Akane's side. I tried to quietly slip myself back to her side but she felt my presence. Without saying a word, she pulled me into her embrace and like the previous nights, she went back to sleep while snuggling up to me.

This turned out to be a rather busy night, from Akane to Yae and lastly to Miwa-nee. In the end, I'm back at this silly girl's side. I love the two from the other rooms but this girl in my arms is just too special for me. I couldn't see myself without her by my side in the future.

But yeah, it wouldn't be just her, that's the only thing that I couldn't fix now.

After whispering I love you to Akane, I soon drifted to sleep. It's already Friday, and I only have a few hours left to sleep, right now I don't have any plans apart from choosing the club I will join in. I shouldn't really stall it. I'll take one last look tomorrow to determine where I will send my club application form.

When morning arrived, we did the usual routine but with the addition of Yae, even in the bath. I fulfilled the 4th round she asked of me during it.

Akane felt a little jealous watching us so after Yae, she pulled me in and asked for the same treatment. Then after that, they worked together washing my body and I did the same for them. They both wore silly smiles on their lips as I carefully washed their bodies.

Yae remembered my words from last night. She stopped competing with Akane and asked her to work together to make me feel comfortable.

We would have stayed in the bath longer if not for Miwa-nee reminding us of the time.

We're pressed for time so I once again couldn't talk to Miwa-nee. She did thank me from what I did last night though. And when Minoru's not looking, we shared another passionate kiss while waiting for the two girls to finish dressing up.

This time, she's the one who initiated it. She remembered what happened when I put her down to their bed and admitted that she wanted more than that.

Miwa-nee could only express her love for me when we're not in front of the boy.

Well, this is fine for now. I'll make more time for Miwa-nee later after school.

Soon, Akane and Yae appeared from upstairs.

With two beautiful girls at my sides, we became the center of attention during our walk to the station. At that point where we have to part ways, Yae also asked for a kiss.

I immediately received some envious glares from other men passing by who saw that spectacle we just did.

Well, it's not like those glares could stab me so I ignored it and started making my way to the train platform.

Chapter 110: Another PE Class (1)

Today is Friday and that means another PE class with Class 3, the class where Himeko's little sister is. The schedule for it will always be every Tuesday and Friday. We'll be joining Class 4 during Tuesdays and Class 3 during Fridays. 𝚗𝑶𝐯𝔢𝓛𝐔𝔰𝕓.𝑪𝓞𝕞

Ah. I didn't go to their club despite the invitation by Hashimoto this Wednesday.

When I saw him in class earlier, he asked me why I didn't show up at their club yesterday. He mentioned how they prepared an original game for me and even Himeko's little sister was excited to play that. In the end, they played it by themselves and well, Hashimoto described how shitty the game was. It's on par with the board games made by that Game Creation Club(Temp) from a certain comedy manga series.

That sounds like a terrible club already if they keep on playing shitty games. But playing games as their club activity? I know some will enjoy that but not me.

Well, I was only looking for a leisure club so that works too.

I apologized for not coming and told him I will take a look later and this time I won't stood them up.

The act yesterday was more important than some other club after all. I took another step forward with Nami. My relationship with her now depends on whether I decide to tell her my history or not. Choosing the former will lead to an uncertain result but choosing the latter will probably close my chances to steal her.

With the act that happened yesterday, Nami's circle of friends put me on their radar. Though none of them approached me because of the favor we asked, I couldn't shake off the feeling that they kept on glancing at me.

I ignored those and let them stare, nothing's wrong with that. We're not acting right now so no matter how much they do that, I won't go to Nami and announce our relationship.

Instead, I put my focus on class and to the two beside me. Aya was still busy reading her new book but she will often initiate a conversation with me, discussing the book she was reading.

I always showed that I'm interested in what she's reading which made her enthusiastic at sharing her insight about the book but since I don't have time to read a book, I'm often stumped at what she's talking about.

When that happens, she will patiently explain it to me. Aya really wanted me to enjoy the book with her. This adorable girl…

I still have Kana's written novel and I was still at chapter 1. I tried reading it during the train ride. Since that was something she will send for a contest, and without her permission, I couldn't show it to Aya. Instead, I told her that I am currently reading a novel and described to her what I read.

At times she would comment on the details that I haven't noticed. I noted those down to give to Kana. It might help her to polish her novel. I guess this way I could help these two on both ends. Helping Aya be more comfortable at conversations and helping Kana with her novel. Maybe soon, I could introduce them to each other. They're both shy, I wonder how will they interact with each other?

That's something to look forward to. I really want all of them to get along. Not just one or two, all of them.

Satsuki, on the other hand, was silent at her desk. This was the first impression I had on her during our first day in school. A silent beauty. But yeah, when she started mouthing off Sakuma, that image was shattered.

Only when those rumors and Sakuma's endless pestering to me did she show interest to her neighbor and starting from that, we ended up right on our current relationship now.

I just turned Sakuma's suspicion away from us so I'm restraining myself to give him more grounds for suspicion.

Instead, we talked to each other through Messenger, which we agreed to not reply immediately to avoid suspicion.

Satsuki thanked me for the encouragement I gave her yesterday. As it turns out, she did better at their last practice that her seniors praised her

She then told how Sakuma went to see her and mentioned me. She's wondering why I didn't come.

If it's about that guy, I honestly told her what happened and what we talked about which led to me changing my mind not to see her yesterday.

She gave me a complicated look from her seat when I mentioned what we discussed concerning her sister.

She's aware of what happened and when I told her that Sakuma might possibly be infatuated to her sister, she didn't deny it or it may be something she already noticed.

Just that, she still fell for him.

We couldn't discuss it further through this so she told me to drop the topic for now.

After that, Satsuki asked me about Nami. She already knew that I'm also trying to steal her, so I told her what went on. Not that detailed though. Just enough for her to get the gist of things.

And that earned me another hateful or jealous glare from her. Satsuki said she will be completely honest with me but of course, she won't always tell how she feels nor her opinion about me trying to steal another girl.

Since her heart was still longing for Sakuma, she probably thinks it's not right for her to voice out an objection.

As to what will happen when I completely replace that guy in her heart, will she start demanding me to stop making a move to other girls or will she accept it as well?

During the lunch break, I went to that empty clubroom where Nami and I spent our time practicing due to the urging of Imada, the one girl that's not in Ogawa's harem. Looks like Nami's circle of friends decided to give us time during lunch breaks so we could spend our time together.

I bet Ogawa didn't see that coming. Now, even Nami's time during lunch will be spent with me.

When I arrived at that empty clubroom, Nami was already there, quietly waiting.

After what happened yesterday, it's kind of awkward to talk to her that soon but that was another chance for me so I took it. We're alone so I didn't need to put up a pretense around her. During that time I went next to her and we ate our lunch together.

Nami was back to her old self and we talked about what happened after our act ended. They walked home together and that's all Ogawa did. She mentioned that she at least wanted Ogawa to hold her hand but yeah, that's Ogawa, you know? He's probably not threatened enough from our act yesterday.

I just quietly listened to her mentioning her frustrations about him. And through that, I got a glimpse of what Nami really likes and why she was possibly drawn to me.

Ogawa was the one she initially liked but he lacked two qualities. The decisiveness and the courage to try and force things despite the risk. I have both of those qualities. From the way I did things, she became interested in me and now we arrived at this point where I could get to do what Ogawa couldn't with her.

I didn't voice it out to her and just listened until she finished talking. But that girl, she told her frustrations to someone who wanted to steal her. If I could guess what she's thinking then that was probably a hint for me, to not be like him about my decisions. I needed to be decisive on the thing she asked.

After that, we spent the remaining time together. Even if we're not acting, Nami didn't resist when I pulled her into my lap. I tried to kiss her again but she shook her head and stopped me so I settled for just feeling her whole body leaning onto me.

Well, she's already feeling comfortable in that position where she put all her weight on me while her head was resting on my shoulder.

I became a bit bolder by putting my hand on her thighs and felt it over her skirt. It's not as plump as Satsuki's but it's soft enough that I felt like I'll be satisfied rubbing it all day.

Nami only silently approved of me putting my hand there. That was me taking advantage of her and she seemed to like it so I started rubbing it as we continued our conversation.

I also told her about what happened after the act and what I did with Mori. Nami listened quietly and when I mentioned how I decided to give up on stealing Mori, she only gave me a curious glance before her eyes fell upon my hand that was rubbing her thighs.

Like me, she didn't voice out her thoughts about what I shared, she was even more concerned about what my hand was doing.

I don't know if she got excited from it but for the time being, that's all I could do. I'll slowly escalate it every time we were given time to be alone like this. From rubbing it indirectly then slipping my hand under her skirt to touch it directly.

As long as she didn't reject it, I'll be a bit bolder every passing day.

And at that moment, another silence and comfortable mood sprung up around us. We stayed like that for the remaining time that we were together.

I made sure not to force it too much on her. She might like someone who is forceful but too much will just put her off.

I embraced her tight and it somehow made me calm down as well.

When the end of the lunch break approached, I sneaked in a kiss on her cheeks before she stood up from my lap. That made her blush and she responded in kind.

Nami really likes me. At one point, she also has to make up her mind if I ever decided to tell her my past.

Will she stay with Ogawa or will she break up with him and make our act real?

That's something only Nami knows. If she still decided to stay with Ogawa, I might become more forceful to her. Unlike Mori, she's not that devoted to Ogawa when she let me enter her life so I'm quite confident that I could steal her from him even without using those despicable methods. I won't postpone my plan to steal her.

Currently, we're now at the outdoor track and field which were often used by the Track and Field Club. The PE class has just started. Just by looking at the venue, the class today will involve running.

Well, after two PE classes and the last being that intense dodgeball, I guess this teacher found out that most of us have low stamina, I heard that someone from the other class also collapsed when it was their turn to play that dodgeball game.

"Hey! I told you all to fall in line! What are you still dawdling for?! In 10 seconds if you're still disorganized, I'll have you all do 20 laps without rest!"

The PE teacher shouted when she saw the other students still sitting lazily on the grass. Did they forget that this teacher is a discipline-freak?

Those of us who already lined up glared at those lousy ones who were still dawdling. This teacher also loves collective punishments so we ourselves have to discipline our classmates to not be implicated with their blunder.

Ten seconds quickly passed but it still took her half a minute before she turned around again and faced us. Saying 'ten seconds' was just something she used to scare us. There's no way we could be organized in ten seconds after all.

Her eyes scanned the crowd. Everyone was standing still and some even held their breath. I saw someone quietly turning purple from lack of air. Well, he survived it when the guy from his back tapped his shoulder to tell him that the teacher wasn't looking at him anymore.

Then I saw Himeko's little sister in the front row of their class, she still has that kind of luxurious and glamorous air around her, really an Ojou-sama. Himeko described her as strong but Hashimoto was talking about a different side of her at their club. Excited from playing a shitty board game?

Ah. Maybe that's her way to unwind. Well, I still don't know her that well and I decided to only focus on my current girls for now.

Looking at her sister, I suddenly missed Himeko. I'll go and see her later then.

Chapter 111: Another PE Class (2)

"Huff… huff!"

I passed by a girl from Class 3 who stopped and sat on the grass after 5 laps. She was breathing roughly and she might even collapse if not for the water someone gave her.

Well, unlike what I guessed, we're not running, we're just walking. How could someone be so tired from that?

I don't know. Don't ask me.

The teacher decided our PE class for today to be like this. Now we're like zombies walking round and round the track.

Err... It's proven a bit effective to increase our endurance. We were told to walk around the running track for 20 laps. Everyone has to finish that or else, the content of the next PE class will be the same.

"Onoda. Do you think everyone could finish 20 laps?"

Sakuma asked me. He was following behind but it seems after 5 laps, he's also starting to get tired.

You're an athlete. Why do you look tired already?

Well, even if walking is something we do everyday, doing a long-distance walk was proven to be tiring especially if you factor the heat of the sun and the state of one's body. Usually, you should bring a bottle of water to keep yourself hydrated. But we were only allowed to drink after 5 laps. That girl I passed by stood up again after drinking water.

"Maybe? We have less than 2 hours. One could finish walking 20 laps around this track in more or less an hour."

Those like us who exercise regularly could easily do it but it might be a bit harder to those indoor types. Especially Aya. I saw her lagging behind among those like her with low stamina. She was initially ahead of us. But because of her slow walking pace, I already passed by her. I slowed down for a bit and gave her encouragement saying I'll spend time with her later when I visit the Book Club. That energized her and made her more eager to finish the 20 laps.

Remembering Aya, I looked back and saw that Satsuki was now walking with her.

Satsuki can finish 20 laps easily so she's slowing down for Aya's sake. That girl can be quite considerate despite her foul mouth. Looking at them together, I'm glad I made Aya open up even to her.

Sakuma also looked back to follow my gaze. When he saw the two girls, he turned to me and suggested something.

"Why don't we slow down? Let's wait for them."

Wait for Satsuki, you mean?

Ah. Well, I guess that's good too, even Nami and her friends were clustered together. The teacher didn't mind it as long as they kept their pace the same when they group up. I should've done this before when we passed by her earlier.

Well, I didn't know that it was allowed.

"Alright. Rindou looks like she needed more encouragement from us."

His suggestion is also good for me. Aya will be more satisfied with this.

Satsuki told me that Aya was almost always alone back in Middle School. She also didn't get the chance to talk to her because Aya thought of her as someone scary.

Now in High School, she finally has us as her group of friends.

This group of friends might be twisted from the inside though but in normal people's eyes, we're just a normal group of friends, like Nami's and Ogawa's.

"Man, why don't you date Rindou? You two will look good together."

Here he goes again. This guy. Aya is already mine, I don't need to confess and start dating her.

"I'm already satisfied with what we have right now, you know? The problem here is you, do you remember what I told you yesterday?"

I brushed off his pestering again and turned the arrow back to him.

I'll constantly remind him like this so that he wouldn't forget about Satsuki's sister. This way he might not be just confused but also start leaning towards her.

"… That thing about her sister, can you not tell her about it?"

Sakuma wore another complicated face. Ah. This must be why he looked tired already. He kept thinking about it yesterday that he didn't get enough sleep.

"Alright. Don't worry."

I already told Satsuki about it, you know? You're late at reminding me.

Following his suggestion, we slowed down our pace and waited for the two to catch up to us.

Aya's eyes glimmered when she saw me wait for them and her lips turned into a smile.

My schedule was slowly opening up now that I stopped acquiring new targets. I wonder, when can I take her home?

I really want Aya, her erotic face from that day was still fresh to me. I want to see that again.

She already resolved herself for that so I shouldn't let her wait for long.

Ah. I decided.

Next week, I'll make time for her. For us to be alone it's either my house or a hotel. I want it to be somewhere where she can be comfortable and at ease so I'll ask for her opinion when the time comes.

I went to Aya's free left side, Sakuma will be suspicious again if I chose Satsuki's right.

Satsuki didn't mind it or she just doesn't want to voice out any objection, it's not like she wanted me to act as her boyfriend. We're always closer than this to each other whenever we're alone.

When it's Sakuma's turn to choose, he also didn't take Satsuki's right and instead settled on my left side.

This guy, are you and Ogawa related? Or is it because of how confused you are right now that you forget to openly show your affection to her again?

Ah well, he's a bit better than Ogawa at least.

"Idiot."

Satsuki muttered when she saw that Sakuma cowered to walk on her right.

She's still conscious of him and I still have no way to change that yet.

The catalyst being Satsuki's sister is needed. If in the end, Sakuma backed out at confessing to her, then that's probably the time when I will start replacing him. It's a win-win as well, Sakuma will finally have someone I wouldn't target. For now.

Err... well, I could also stop being this cruel to him and let him be happy by crossing out Satsuki's sister if he succeeded. I still don't know the whole story after all. Maybe there's still more to it.

After completing 10 laps the teacher told us that we could rest for 10 minutes. Thankful for that brief respite, everyone was overjoyed and slumped down to the grass.

Us four took our space and sat on the grass like everyone else then I stood up to go to the vending machine to buy drinks for us. Satsuki tagged along with an excuse of wanting to choose her own drink.

"I'm sure you'll pick lemonade again."

On the way, I heard Satsuki's voice that was directed to me.

"You liked the taste of it. Did it change?"

I just really love her reaction whenever lemon or lemonade appear before her. The taste of her lips and tongue back then, it still lingers in my mind.

"You know why, idiot."

She glared at me but there's a hint of blush on her face. Even without me reminding her, she already remembered that scene.

Ah. I want to take her lips again. I got blocked by Sakuma yesterday and now I don't know when I can be alone with her.

This time doesn't count, there's a lot of eyes around us.

"I'll choose lemonade too and drink it with you, that way we can both remember that time."

I tried teasing Satsuki more and that earned me a punch to my shoulder from her. Sakuma isn't around anyway, a little teasing like this is fine.

"Shut up! Someone might hear you."

She raised her voice a bit but the next sentence was told like a whisper.

This girl…

I really love teasing her. I got a bit busy these days so I somehow forgot to keep teasing her. And there's still Sakuma who can't stop being suspicious.

Just looking at her blushing like that, even if she acted like she's mad at me, the things I made her remember was also something she couldn't forget.

"They won't know what we're talking about."

I closed the distance between us and whispered to her.

"What? What are you two talking about, Onoda?"

Another voice rang out from behind me. I looked back and saw a Harada. With a smile that looks like she just caught on something interesting, she put herself in between us.

This girl, how can she show up out of nowhere? Where did she even come from?

Satsuki was startled from Harada suddenly showing up.

"Chii. Where did you even come from?"

I was also startled though I immediately regained myself and acted normally.

Is this girl a ninja? I'm pretty sure I haven't seen her around us when we started heading towards the vending machine.

"Huh? I came back from the restroom, you know. I drank too much water that my bladder couldn't hold up. Enough of that anyway, I saw you two heading this way so I thought I would say hi."

She pointed to the restroom that was located near the track and field.

When I accepted her request to meet her next week, she stopped pestering me in class. That made Fukuda sigh in relief. That delinquent guy seemed to be head over heels for her but for some reason, he's not convinced that they were dating.

Maybe this girl was just using that point to keep boys she's not interested in, who were trying to approach her, away.

"So Harada-san is already this close to you that you're already calling her with a nickname."

Eh? Satsuki? Why of all things to notice you picked that? Is she possibly jealous that I'm calling Harada by the nickname she gave?

"Like, are you jealous, Maemura? Heh. I totally push Onoda to call me like that, you know? He knew I wouldn't stop pestering him if he still calls me using my last name."

Right. In the end, I changed the way I call her to Chii. Whenever she messages me and I call led her Harada, she will keep reminding me to call her Chii. Our conversation couldn't flow smoothly when she kept interrupting it like that.

"Why would I be jealous? It's not like we're dating. What about you, Harada-san? Why are you interested in him?"

Satsuki asked. She's trying to divert the topic to Chii so she could forget what we were talking about before she showed up.

When Chii was trying to talk to me in the classroom, Satsuki didn't move from her chair and just watched on at the spectacle until Nami blocked her and Mori took me away.

"Nothing special. He just really caught my eye, you know? There's a lot of girls around him, it will just be a matter of time before he gets taken away by one of them."

This girl, she doesn't know what she's talking about but I guess she's trying to provoke Satsuki into giving out information about us.

When I looked at Satsuki, she had an expression like Chii's words affected her.

Err... Did it bother her? It wouldn't be me taken away by one of them but them being taken by me one by one.

"That guy's an idiot. He won't date anyone. Oh. Onoda, lemonade for me."

Satsuki answered before turning to me.

In the end, she still chose lemonade. This girl... What's the point of coming here with me? To give us some time alone?

We already arrived at the vending machine and I started choosing our drinks while the two still continued at their topic.

For their topic to be this near them, don't they think I might be bothered by what they're talking about?

Ah. Satsuki knew I'm someone who wouldn't bother about anything about me and Chii was purposely letting me hear it.

"You heard the rumor, right? Andou might get to him before you."

She also heard about that rumor, eh? But she still thinks it's Nami who was approaching me and not the other way around.

"That doesn't concern me at all, Harada-san. Who would like this pervert, anyway?"

You? You already confessed that you like me, Satsuki 𝗇𝒪𝔳𝗲𝑙𝔲𝓈𝔅.𝑐𝗈𝚖

Chii only smiled at that before dropping the topic since she couldn't get Satsuki to be flustered by what she's talking about. Whatever her guess about our relationship, she wouldn't know that we're way past the first stages of dating. We don't need that label on us.

After that, I finished buying our drinks. Of course, this time it's not free. They already handed me the money before going here.

I gave the lemonade to Satsuki and she blushed again while looking at that can.

Chii didn't notice that because she's currently choosing her own drink.

That girl, she just peed because of too much water and now she'll buy herself another drink.

We waited for her before going back to our group. She then separated from us and went back to the Delinquent Group.

Aya was already sweating, she was the most tired among us four. She smiled and happily took the can of juice from me.

Sakuma, on the other hand, was looking at the two of us but he didn't say anything else and just thanked me after handing him his can of soda. He acted normally but that gaze from him…

This guy, is he starting to suspect us again? We only bought drinks not too far from here. I guess once he started suspecting us, that will continue even with as little detail as that.

I don't care anyway, he could suspect us all he wants but I'll keep confusing him to her sister.

After that 10 minute break, everyone continued walking to finish the 20 laps required.

This PE class for today was spent leisurely just walking around the running track.

Of course, it's still tiring for everyone that when they finished, most of us slumped down to the grass and waited for those still lagging behind for a few laps. Everyone was cheering for them and even handed out free drinks to those who ran out of water, just for them to finish it.

It might be easy to complete since it's just walking but it's tiring for everyone's legs. Good luck to them walking back to our classes.

Chapter 112: Few Minutes with Aya*

"What's this room?"

Aya silently asked. Her eyes were scanning the room and when she couldn't see anything noteworthy, she turned to face me.

After changing back to my uniform I waited for her and pulled her into the empty room near the restroom in the School Building.

This girl tried her best to complete those 20 laps so I thought I should reward her or something. I couldn't think of any other form of reward so this alone time with her is the best I can come up with.

Ah. You can say that this is also me wanting to be alone with her. I can feel my desire calling out to have her. I also wanted Satsuki, actually, but if we both disappeared, Sakuma will renew his suspicion about us.

"This is just an empty room where we can be alone, Aya. You did well during PE."

I closed our distance and put her into my embrace. This surprised her but it only put her in a good mood. She looked up and gave me that bashful smile of hers.

"Uhm... I like this, Ruki. Being alone and this close to you"

Her arms also circled around my back and buried her face into my chest, sniffing my scent.

Err… Even if it was just walking, I still sweated, you know? For her to smell me…

I patted her head and tightened my hug. Her soft body was now completely into my arms. She's a bit small and carrying her will be an easy task for me.

"Then Aya, shall we do something erotic?"

When she heard my words, Aya visibly blushed and nodded. Maybe she was also waiting for this or she just really wanted to do something with me. 𝐧𝐎𝗏𝑬𝐥𝔲𝓢𝕓.𝔠𝑜𝓂

There's only a few minutes before the last period starts so I immediately jumped to what I really wanted by bringing her here.

I'm prepared to stop what I was about to do if she rejected me, this girl is too precious for me. I don't want to break her just because of my lust for her.

With her consent, our lips touched and we shared a kiss, Aya's glimmering eyes which were half-covered by her fringes were lovingly staring at me as I took her lips into mine.

All the previous thoughts of wanting to stop were instantly flushed out of my mind.

Her lips that still have the lingering taste of the juice I bought her earlier were so soft. Kissing it was already something I got addicted to.

With the use of my tongue, I licked her lips, wetting it before it invaded inside to search for her tongue.

Even with just this, Aya was receiving me quite well, her arms that were hugging me tightened its hold, our previously close bodies became even closer.

My hands which were like the manifestation of my desire, couldn't contain themselves anymore. From her back it started exploring her whole body. One of it landed on her butt and groped it while the other grabbed her soft breasts. Aya gasped that she almost bit my tongue when she felt that.

Pulling her tongue out of her mouth, I sucked on it and tasted her saliva. Aya's face was continually changing from a blushing one to something more erotic. This was her face back in that room with Haruko.

"Ruki… your hand."

Aya silently whispered, my hand on her butt was already under her skirt, while the one on her breast where currently unbuttoning her uniform. Our scent mixed with sweat further heightened our desire for each other.

I opened her up to have the courage and it's now showing itself to me. Her hands also started moving from my back to my chest then down to that growing bulge inside my pants.

She grabbed it with her trembling hands as she started to pull my zipper down.

Looks like the courage I gave her made her this bold. I could still remember that day when she just watched me do everything to her, from kissing her to sucking her most sacred place.

"I could say the same, Aya, where's your hand right now?"

I teased her as I started kissing her neck.

She didn't answer me since her focus was on the thing inside my pants, after pulling down my zipper, she slipped her hand inside and pulled my cock out. Her hand immediately grabbed it and stroked it slowly.

To where she learned this, it's probably when Haruko did it back then. She was watching us after all, and using what she learned she's now focused on pleasing me using her hand.

With every stroke of her hand, I could feel my cock harden further.

Not wanting to lose to her, I slipped my hand inside her skirt and inside her panties, tracing her slit downwards, my finger found her hole. It's already starting to get wet and when she felt my touch, Aya couldn't help but shiver in pleasure.

She looked up and reached for my lips, I respond in kind and we shared another passionate kiss where our tongue kept entangling each other. The taste of our saliva mixed in together were already something we were accustomed to.

Now, while kissing, she's continuing her strokes on my cock and I am continuing to stimulate her hole.

"Uhm… we couldn't do it yet, so I want to try putting this in my mouth."

After making my cock fully erect, Aya broke free from our kiss and earnestly told me what she wanted.

Her hand increased the pace of her strokes. Even with her inexperienced hand, I really felt the pleasure she's trying to give me. By wanting to put it in her mouth, she'll surely be giving me more pleasure than this.

But this girl, she's really copying Haruko.

This will be her first blowjob. Will she be fine?

I guess I'll have to guide her like how I always guide my girls when they first give me a blowjob.

"Are you sure, Aya? I mean, I will love it for you to do it for me but I don't want you to force yourself."

This girl is just too precious. To see her like this, the contrast from her usual act and this is probably unimaginable for others.

And I planned to reward her by bringing her here but with this, it's like I'm the one being rewarded by her.

"Un… I'm sure. When I saw Haru-senpai doing it to you, I also got the urge to try pleasuring you using my mouth."

After saying that, Aya kneeled in front of me, my fully erect cock was pointing towards her. She then brought her face near it and sniffed it. Taking in the scent of my cock, she started to extend her small tongue to it and licked the tip.

I felt the jolt of pleasure when her tongue touched it.

Seeing this usually innocent and shy girl who was always buried in her books sniffing and licking my cock like this, it brought me unimaginable pleasure.

I somehow felt guilty that I corrupted her to this degree…

But isn't this what I always do to my girls? Look at Ria, she became that lewd because of me. Now, she can match me in bed.

Err… I will take her first time soon and I will also ask her to do this. For her to offer it now, it probably took a lot of her courage to decide this. If I reject her here, she will take it to heart.

"Aya…"

I watched her do her best licking the tip, her small tongue was slightly trembling but her eager face erased any thoughts of me wanting to stop her. I let her do what she wanted as I held onto her head.

Aya backed her head a bit to lift it up. From the base, she licked it upwards until she reached the tip again.

Still stroking my cock with her hand, she opened her mouth and put the head of my cock inside it.

I could feel her tongue licking the tip as she started sucking on my cock.

Even inexperienced, Aya's teeth never touched my cock, looks like she learned how to do this properly

"Aahh… Where did you learn this?"

"…I watched on the internet."

She shyly answered me as she took out my cock for a bit and went back to licking it.

This introverted girl watched p*rn as reference… I guess what she read wasn't enough for her. She wanted to give me a better experience.

I patted her head and encouraged her to do more. From only putting the head, she tried taking in more of it inside her mouth. Afterwards, she started moving her head. Though she moved clumsily, her eager and erotic look made it more pleasurable for me.

Her hand tightened its hold onto my cock as she increased the pace of moving her head.

Aya kept staring at me as she pleasured me using her mouth. The warmth and tightness of her mouth made me let out a moan. She probably already tasted the precum that leaked out from the tip but Aya never stopped moving her head.

As her speed gradually grew faster, I could feel myself reaching the limit. Usually this will be the time for me to move and finish it by pushing my cock deeper but this time, I'll let Aya finish me off like this.

"Ughh. Aya. I'm cumming!"

I warned her about it but she just became more eager at what she's doing.

Her head moved faster as she took in my cock in and out of her mouth. Aya's face was too erotic as she diligently kept on sucking me. And soon enough, I reached my limit at holding back my cum. With my cock still inside her mouth and her head still moving, my semen burst out without warning. My hips jerked a bit, burying more of my cock inside her mouth.

Cumming inside her mouth gave me so much pleasure that my hips moved unconsciously.

Aya's eyes widened when she felt that and she immediately stopped moving her head as she took in what I released, trying to suck and swallow everything.

When I felt that I've already released everything, I quickly pulled out my cock from her mouth. With her mouth still wide open, Aya showed me how full it was before she closed her mouth and gulped everything down.

Though she tried, Aya couldn't help but cough from the amount I released. Some leftover semen spilled to the ground.

"Uuhh... T-too much... Haahh.. I couldn't swallow all of it."

With an apologetic look Aya gasped for breath.

"You did really well. It felt amazing, Aya."

I knelt before her, took her in my arms and praised her. She smiled upon hearing that praise from me and she immediately threw herself into my arms.

I could feel my cock still throbbing from that immense pleasure she brought me. This girl really did her best.

"I'm happy you felt that way, Ruki. Uhm... What you did to me back in that room, it felt really good too… I even masturbated remembering it."

Aya heaved a sigh while smiling and softly confessed a secret she was keeping.

"I can do it for you again, Aya. You made me feel good, now it's my turn to make you feel the same."

I also softly whispered in her ears as I reached my hand under her skirt again, I could feel that she's wetter than earlier. Moving away the part covering her pussy, I slipped in my finger and started caressing it directly.

"Aahhn... W-wait. It will get too wet…"

Aya held my hand off as she tried to stop me.

"Let's take it off first."

I reached in my other hand to pull her panties down. She's already dripping wet down there. Maybe if we wanted to I could take her first time here but yeah, I want it to be memorable for her so it's not viable for now.

"W-we don't have enough time, Ruki."

Aya reminded me of the time and she's right. The next period will soon start.

"It's fine to be late, right? I want Aya to feel good as well."

"N-no, we shouldn't be late, Ruki. Later, you can make me feel good…"

Since she wanted to stop for now, I heeded what Aya wanted. Pulling back my arm from down there, I fixed her unbuttoned uniform, apart from the bits of sweat that formed in her forehead, Aya looked completely normal.

The trace of what she just did was already gone except that reddened face of hers, it still look erotic for me.

Afterwards, we went back to our class together right before the last period started. Sakuma was surprised and wondered where did we go. Satsuki only looked on and didn't say anything.

Err… she's a bit sharp when it comes to this so she probably already had a guess to what we did and why we came back together.

Nami also stared at me and of course, her friends as well. Since there's nothing wrong with our appearance and I don't even really care what they will think, I ignored it and went back to our seat.

After this last period, I have a lot of things to do. I'll go to the Book club to spend time with Aya and see Himeko. While I'm at it, see my Haruko as well. Then before the day ends, I have to choose which club I'll join in. Will it be the Literature Club?

I don't want to join the Support Club of Nami and Ogawa, it will be too tiring to deal with them everyday, especially that President. Since we're still going to act next time, I will have to visit that club anyway so there's no point joining it.

Chapter 113: Game Club

The class ended with everyone tired from the previous PE class. Good thing the last subject was something we could breeze through easily. It was purposely put at the end of the class as an additional subject.

Normally, there should only be six periods but here in this school, they added one at the end, cutting a few minutes from the 5th period, 6th period and club activity to still fit the timeframe. It's something the school board decided to add.

Satsuki and Sakuma already went to their respective clubs while Aya was called by the teacher in Japanese subject to the faculty. She will then go straight to her club from there.

So that leaves me alone again.

I also didn't have to act with Nami today. After the introduction yesterday and my time with her earlier, there's no need to reinforce the idea that we were dating. 𝐧𝐎𝗏𝑬𝐥𝔲𝓢𝕓.𝔠𝑜𝓂

I saw their circle of friends leaving the classroom together, Imada even asked if I will visit their club again and I just answered to take care of Nami for me.

That girl seems too eager to see us together. Is she shipping us or there's another motive behind what she's doing? In the looks department, she's only behind Mori, a bit plain but still attractive to most.

More importantly, she's not like the girls in Ogawa's harem. She's the real representation of Classmate A or in her case, Friend A.

It's not that I'm against at what she's doing, she's even helping me to steal Nami unknowingly. I just don't know why she seems too enthusiastic about our supposed relationship.

Nami mentioned that it was also her who suggested giving us time during lunch break, with the impression I gave them yesterday, most of them agreed, especially Izumi-senpai who were gunning for the now freed Ogawa. Mori also agreed even if she knew we were just acting and that Ogawa was her real boyfriend.

Didn't she think for a second that Ogawa might hold it against her?

But that's Ogawa, he'll probably let that slide.

Like with Sakuma, I shouldn't get him overly suspicious for now so distancing myself like this will be good in the future. I'll just keep talking to Nami through messenger.

I also left the classroom afterwards and went to the Club Building, Shio reminded everyone who hadn't chosen a club yet to decide today. It's mandatory for this school to have a club after all, if we didn't choose, they will put us in a random club that will be decided by drawing lots.

It was the SC President, Shizu-senpai, who came up with that idea. And the clubs that will be included in that draw were those who lacked the necessary members to keep their clubs afloat for the school year. That means I would be put to a completely new club I haven't visited yet if that ever happened.

There's a bit of fun to let it be decided like that but that sounds too troublesome for me.

I went up the stairs of the Club Building and my feet led me to the 3rd floor, right in front of the door of the Game Club.

Well, I could've told Hashimoto that I'm not interested in this club but for the sake of having another option and to keep up appearances, my feet led me here.

The Literature Club is located at the other end of this floor and that will be my next destination after here. It has already been more than a week since the trial I took in there. I'm already acquainted with all of them and could be said to be close enough to the two. Kana and Fujii.

Otsuka-senpai was someone really curious about me just that I didn't want to deal with her curiosity too much while Ishida-senpai was someone I'm not particularly close to. She even came clean about what happened between her and that Kenji. So right now, the picture I took from when I saw her last Sunday couldn't be used as a material anymore.

After knocking at the door, I waited for someone to open it from the inside. They seem to have been busy preparing something that I could hear a lot of activity inside.

When the door opened I was greeted by a 3rd year senior, the Club President? I determined him to be a 3rd year student because of his uniform, he wore glasses and seemed to be an intellectual type. He had a smile on his face that could be taken as him being friendly to everyone.

"Hello. What brings you here?"

He greeted me. I got a glimpse of what's inside and there's a lot of students inside. They're sitting around a long table.

"I came here to apologize for not showing up yesterday, senpai. I heard from Hashimoto."

I answered politely.

"Oh? Are you the classmate he invited? For you to come and apologize, I guess I have to reverse what I thought of you."

So by his words, he already had a bad impression of me because of not showing up yesterday. It's not like I agreed that I'll definitely go, you know? But yeah, I told him I'll try it yesterday, he probably brags about it that he pulled one.

Why do they even need more members when there's already a lot of them inside there?

"Something just came up yesterday, so I thought maybe I could make up for it today. Is it fine, senpai?"

"Of course! You're more than welcome to try our club. Come in."

He opened the door wider for me to enter. His attitude towards me is quite good.

He then introduced himself as Nishimura and he's really the Game Club's President.

After entering their clubroom, I got to see how many members this club has. Just from their uniforms, there are 7 first years, 3 second years and 1 third year. If I add Nishimura-senpai then there are only 2 third years among the club members.

With this many club members, I don't see the point of Hashimoto inviting me here. Did he only want to show me that the Oujo-sama is really a member of this club?

There are only 3 girls in this club, one in each year. The large number of 1st years could be attributed to Himeko's little sister. Looks like they chased after her here. That elegance and beauty could really attract these horny teens. This was what also happened to Akane's club. Those guys followed her to her chosen club.

I found Itou Maaya sitting with the other girls, she's quietly listening to the 2nd year girl explaining something to her. My arrival didn't even affect their conversation, at least they didn't ignore me. They both threw me a glance to see who arrived before going back to their conversation.

The 3rd year girl stood up and went next to Nishimura-senpai. By the looks they're giving to each other, the two were clearly dating.

My desire seemed to have been woken up upon seeing them together.

Ah. I still can't stop it from seeing potential targets. Finding a potential target doesn't mean I will immediately go after her, anyway.

She introduced herself as Miura-senpai. Like Nishimura-senpai, she also has that friendly smile on her lips, with glasses on and a fairly attractive face paired by a shoulder-length hair, the two looked good together.

I couldn't help but imagine if I stole her from him, what will happen to this club?

Err… let's stop that thought for now. Let's be civilized here.

I was also introduced to the other first years and second years but those guys, Hashimoto included were all staring at Itou and the 2nd year girl, she's also a looker but compared to the Ojou-sama or Akane, she paled in comparison. She has this nonchalant demeanor that even with stares directed at them, she could still focus on Itou at her side.

As to what they were talking about, I still don't get it even if I can already hear what they're talking about.

Nishimura-senpai brought me a chair to sit onto. Now that I'm here, I guess I could stay for a bit and see what they were about to do as their club activity for the day.

I already noticed the huge board game spread on the table. That was probably what Hashimoto described as the shitty game they played yesterday.

Considering that the board game is so huge, the tiles depicted on it were so small that before you could travel around the board, you'll be needing a lot of dice rolls.

I read the title that was probably hand-written on top of it, it's called 'The Quest for the Lost Kittens'.

The hell is with that title?

After clapping once, Nishimura-senpai took all of our attention. For the sake of the newcomer, which is me, he explained the game again.

Just like most board games, it will be played using dice rolls. It's just about collecting Lost Kittens that were spread around the board. By how absurd the game is, he already lost me when he even provided a background story about the Planet where the Lost Kittens originated from.

The faces of everyone hearing about it for the 2nd time were all complicated, including Itou who Hashimoto told me was excited about this yesterday.

I guess I'll really cross this club off. Well, it isn't bad to visit this again when I'm ready to steal that 3rd year or even that 2nd year and Itou. But there's no way I will join this club.

Nishimura-senpai and the 3rd year girl enthusiastically explained everything about the game. They made this together. Maybe this was why they couldn't voice out that there's something wrong with this game. Their seniors specifically created it for the juniors to enjoy.

The only thing I understood about the mechanics of the game was to successfully bring 100 Lost Kittens back to their planet which was indicated that it could only be accessed at the four corners of the board and next to those tiles were black holes where the player could lose all the kittens they collected. As to how one can collect those kittens, they're spread out over the board and there were cards they prepared for the events that will be triggered by specific tiles.

I eventually gave up and just went along to play one game with them. Though it's a bit shitty, with these many players, it became a bit interesting, especially when someone will step on the black hole, losing every kitten they collected.

In the end, Itou finished first and that made her very happy. She even jumped up in celebration, to think that she could act like that. My guess about this club being something she chose to relieve her stress seems to be true.

I finished 2nd and that made her approach me, with an unusual smugness on her face, she patted my shoulder saying have better luck next time. She's really different from Himeko.

Since we're the first two who finished the game, I got the time to talk to her. When I mentioned her sister, she was surprised that I'm acquainted with her.

From her words, it seems like she felt sorry for her sister. She knew why she became that introverted so when I told her I met Himeko and befriended her, she was overjoyed about it and asked to tell me news about her sister next time.

When I asked her why she couldn't ask her own sister, she didn't answer and just shook her head. Their family seems really complicated, eh?

After the others finished the game, I finally bid farewell to Nishimura, Miura-senpai, Itou and the other club members. Thanking them for the experience.

I guess my visit here was fruitful. I got to talk to Himeko's little sister and added her to messenger, then there's that potential target. I still don't know about the 2nd year girl but I guess meeting her for the first time wouldn't develop to me instantly liking her. The 3rd year is a different story though, someone's lover is still a target of my desire after all. That didn't change even after all the change that happened to me.

Chapter 114: Visiting the Literature Club Again

"You?" 𝔫𝑶𝑽𝖾𝐋𝔲𝒮𝓫.𝓬𝒐𝐦

Kenji was the one who opened the door to the Literature Club and upon seeing me, he was puzzled as to why I came back here.

"Goto-senpai. I'm here to look at the club once more. Err… I still haven't chosen the club I will join but the Literature Club is still one of my choices."

I explained my appearance even without him asking.

I peeked inside and saw the surprised faces of Otsuka-senpai and Ishida-senpai. Kana and Fujii already knew I would be showing up since I messaged them about it.

Kana was smiling at me while Fujii also had a hint of a smile upon seeing me.

This Kenji guy still has no idea that I'm the one that changed Kana. To him, I'm just a 1st year student who tried their club last week.

"Alright. Come in."

He widened the opening of the door and let me in. His expression is sour but at least he didn't turn me away.

Upon entering, I immediately greeted the two senpais, Otsuka-senpai, this curious girl, somehow became tongue-tied while Ishida-senpai stuttered as she responded to my greeting.

What happened last Sunday was still fresh in her mind.

Then I also greeted Kana, I just met her yesterday and upon seeing her here, I already have an urge to go to her and take her in my arms again.

Then there's Fujii, she just nodded and smiled at me before going back to reading what's on her hand.

Now that I'm here, I could feel an awkward air around them, Kana was sitting with Fujii, then next to her was Otsuka-senpai. Ishida-senpai and Kenji were at the other end of the table but they're also apart from each other.

Even with the overflowing curiosity of Otsuka-senpai, it looks like she was afraid to ask them about what happened which leads to this awkward situation in this clubroom.

It's already been five days since that day when they confessed to what had transpired to Kana and until now, it hasn't been resolved. How come this club is still afloat?

Now that I'm here, let's stir up trouble here. Err… I mean, enliven the atmosphere.

I looked at what they're currently doing but it seems there's really no activity going on. Fujii was taking in new knowledge, Kana was writing something and Otsuka-senpai was just sitting there. Ishida-senpai was completely conscious of me that she kept on glancing my way, while that Kenji was looking at Kana.

I settled myself next to Otsuka-senpai. There's that sparkle in her eyes again, the thing she always has whenever she's curious about something.

My appearance here became her salvation to her bottled up curiosity.

"You received my message, senpai?"

I asked her and she immediately nodded.

"I'm waiting for your questions, Onoda-kun."

It's my turn to ask her for questions but there's no way I could ask those to her at this moment. Those were sensitive questions after all so I thought of entertaining her curiosity for now.

"Not now, senpai. I'll ask about it when we're alone. You must be curious why I'm back here, right?"

I kept my voice down as I whispered to her. We already got the attention of that Kenji. Though he couldn't pick up anything from our conversation, it will be strange for him to hear us talking like we're in contact with each other.

I looked at Kana, she's still writing something but her ears were perked up, trying to listen in on our conversation.

I also need to think of a reason to talk to her here, I want to update her on what I've read from her novel.

Since the other members were silent, only the voices of me and Otsuka-senpai filled the room. We might have started from the reason why I came back, it gradually evolved to anything this curious girl could think of.

"So, Onoda-kun, I think you're best suited here, remember what you wrote last Wednesday?"

Well, at least she's sensible enough to refrain from asking things about my relationship with Kana.

"How could I not remember? I heard Ishida-senpai's shout back then. But is it fine for me to join here?"

"Of course! Look how silent the club room is, with your addition we will be more lively. Are you considering other clubs?"

" Yes. Apart from this, there's the Game Club and the Book Club."

When I mentioned Book Club, it took Fujii's attention from what she's reading and she suddenly stood up and shouted.

"No! Don't go to that club. Their members are scary!"

Ah. Right the impression she had on that club was about those six members.

"Eh? Mirae-chan, it's rare for you to speak out. What happened?"

With that sudden outburst from Fujii, Otsuka-senpai's curiosity was now switched to her.

Ah this is good too, it's a bit tiring satisfying that girl's curiosity.

"Uhm. She mentioned to me about the members of that club. She got scared of them so she chose to join our club."

Kana provided an explanation. They're both a bit reserved when speaking and it seems they got closer this week.

"This is the first time I'm hearing this, tell me more!"

Like there's an invisible curiosity meter that was suddenly filled up, Otsuka-senpai stood up and asked to switch places with Kana.

She already forgot about asking me more. The thing she just heard was more interesting for her.

I watched on as Fujii flinched and started to back away from her but under Otsuka-senpai's barrage of questions, she gave up eventually.

Kana exchanged glances with me, now that we're suddenly next to each other, I didn't miss the chance to reach for her hand.

That Kenji was still looking at her but yeah, I don't really care about him. Crossing our fingers together, Kana visibly blushed from her seat. We don't need to converse to each other right now, just feeling our hands together like this was enough.

Now I'm more inclined to join this club. There's this interesting awkward atmosphere around them, if I join, I will make sure to make it more awkward for them.

Ishida-senpai, on the other hand, was still conscious of me but she couldn't get herself to come and ask me.

I wonder what it is that she wanted to ask. There's already no point to talk about how I caught them in that love hotel.

But there's no point of me being here if there's no activity, right? I still need to put up a pretense that I'm here for their activity.

While still holding Kana's hand, I turned to Ishida-senpai to ask her. I could ask Kana but I opted to ask her to get her to talk.

"Senpai, is there anything I need to do? Don't we have a club activity today?"

But instead of Ishida-senpai, it was Kenji who answered my question.

"Not today. But if you want to do something, you can read those."

He pointed to a bookshelf at the corner of the room. There were books and stacks of papers stored there. As to their contents, I guess I can only know by checking it.

"I see. Then is it fine for me to read something else?"

I don't want to leave Kana's side just to check those books so I thought of just reading her own novel. He won't notice that it's hers, right?

"Sure. I'm sorry about this, Onoda. We'll resume activity next week. Right now, we're only gathering together here."

Still clueless about what's happening, Kenji even apologized to me. Looks like they were really strained here. I still couldn't get the whole picture but something already happened, Kana was ignoring him while he still kept looking at her. Then there's Ishida-senpai who didn't know where to place herself.

What should I do about this situation? If nothing happened maybe this situation will persist even until next week or the week after that.

Kana insisted on handling it by herself, I wanted to respect that. Should I just show this guy that I'm close to Kana? That way it can push him to question her and through that, they will arrive at the main point. Or maybe they're already past that main point, they just need to start moving forward again.

"I see, you don't need to apologize, senpai. I'll be reading this."

I released Kana's hand for a bit to take out her novel from my bag. After putting it down to the table, Kenji curiously glanced at it but he didn't recognize the familiar handwriting used.

Kana never showed him this.

At that same moment, Kana was half-smiling as she watched me flip open the stack of papers.

Then from it, a small piece of paper was clipped. I took it and gave it to Kana before I whispered to her.

"I've read the 1st chapter and this was what I noticed. Err, I also got the help of a book enthusiast."

She read the contents of the paper and she fell in thought at the insight and ideas written there.

Letting her think, I started reading from the 2nd chapter. About 10 minutes later, not minding the watchful gaze of Kenji, Kana moved her chair closer to me before whispering.

"Thank you, Ruki. Those were really insightful."

"I'm glad it helped."

This time, she's the one who reached for my hand. Unlike earlier, it was at the top of the table and was in full view of everyone.

This girl suddenly made this bold move. She probably thought the risk of showing this but she still chose to do it. So without rejecting her, I opened my hand and received hers.

She then gave me her sweet smile as she rested her head on my shoulder. The thought of Kenji seeing that was already out of her head. Maybe she really wanted to show him this.

I took a glance at his way.

That guy was really watching everything, his expression was indescribable but he couldn't utter words that he wanted to say. He just watched on as we crossed our fingers together.

This was his place before but now, I'm occupying it. As to what's going through his head right now, I have no idea.

I thought he would confront me or Kana but he only stood up, took his bag and left the clubroom.

What's wrong with him?

I turned to Kana expecting an answer and from her mouth, the answer cleared everything.

"I've already ended everything between us."

"K-kana, he…"

Ishida-senpai couldn't help but ask, she was also watching from her seat.

And even Fujii and Otsuka-senpai's attention were switched to us when Kenji left the clubroom. Fujii didn't have that much of a reaction since that girl knew things about me and Otsuka-senpai also knew how close we are, she even watched us have sex in this very room.

"Rumi, this is the guy I told you about. I couldn't hide it anymore."

Only Ishida-senpai had no idea about us but yeah, she was the first one to get suspicious back then when we ran into her on the stairs.

And as if that's not enough shock I supported Kana's claim by taking her lips into a kiss.

Kana didn't reject it as we kissed each other in front of them. At this moment, Kana finally got out of her shell she made for herself. The shell that caged her to the thought of liking that Kenji.

Chapter 115: Surprise

Ishida-senpai was speechless as she watched me kiss Kana. Since we're in a room where Kana knew everyone, her shy nature wasn't triggered. From a simple kiss, it turned to a passionate one where we also used our tongues.

Ishida-senpai as well as the other two watched closely. I could feel Kana's feeling through this kiss, she's trembling, afraid and needed comfort. Looks like the way she ended it with that Kenji took up all her courage. Now that it's done, she needs someone to support her again. And that person should be me. I want to take her away from here but we also need to deal with the other members especially the Club President.

Kana's words to Ishida-senpai was what I didn't expect. She already told her about us but she didn't name me. With my appearance here, she decided to come clean about it.

"Onoda. Are you really here for the club or for Kana?"

That's all Ishida-senpai could ask me after our lips separated, after all, she's the President of this club. Her personal feelings aside, she also cared for the club. If I'm just here for Kana, then she'll probably not accept if I ever submitted an application.

There's a possibility that Kenji will quit the club. If that happened they will be short of a member again.

But will he really quit or stay? I don't know, what I do know is he will soon confront me about this. If not today, next week for sure.

Ishida-senpai also saw me with Yae last Sunday, I'm sure that's still in her mind but for now, she is more concerned for the club than Kana or Kenji.

Ah. But I'm not just here for Kana, I'm here for all of them, including her…

As if I could tell her that.

"To be honest, at first I tried the club because of Kana. But this time around, I'm really considering joining to help her."

My answer was still honest just that it's not the whole reason why I am here. I have to plan well on how to deal with these four girls.

So, I finally made up my mind.

I will join the Literature Club. I could visit the Book Club anytime after all. They were located at the floor below hence it will be easy for me to slip out of here to go and see Haruko, Aya and Himeko.

Kana had a peaceful look on her face as she snuggled closer to me, not minding the gazes of the other three in this room.

I filled up the application form and gave it to Ishida-senpai. She didn't ask too many questions as if what happened earlier was something she's not concerned about.

And just like that, I joined the Literature Club.

The curious girl couldn't find the timing to ask questions and Fujii went back to what she's reading unconcerned to what had transpired. I need to talk to these two, alone. But not now, Kana was stuck to me as if she didn't want to leave my side.

I asked her about what happened and she told me how she broke it off with Kenji. He was already ignoring her for days or maybe not ignoring her, he thought she'll bounce back if he acted like that.

Then this morning, when he heard about what happened at the cafeteria yesterday, he confronted Kana.

Since they're already in that situation where Kenji was confronting her about everything and bringing up everything that he did for her, Kana gathered up her courage to tell him everything.

Including the things about me and what happened between us, but with his reaction when he opened the door earlier, he didn't know who was the 1st year who took Kana from him.

We were talking silently to not disturb the three but I guess they're all eavesdropping since when I looked around they all suddenly buried themselves on whatever that is they're doing.

After 30 minutes, I took Kana with me and bid farewell to Ishida-senpai and the other two.

With everything that happened, I couldn't leave her alone. Kenji might even be waiting for her somewhere. I don't know, it's better to be cautious since I don't know what's going on in his mind after being dumped by Kana.

I walked her to the bus station and sent her home. I watched on as she reluctantly got on the bus. She probably wanted to stay longer with me but it's best for her to rest her mind after everything that happened. I also restrained myself to bring her to an empty room.

Err... Of course, my desire for her was still fully ignited, what we did inside that Karaoke Box wasn't enough for me. But today, it's not really appropriate.

Before the bus left, I told her that I will call her later. That somehow calmed her as she smiled and waved at me.

I waited until the bus disappeared from my sight before going back to school.

This time, my destination was the Book Club.

I caught sight of Kenji as he was entering the Club Building, I don't know if he wanted to go back to the clubroom or if he even saw us leaving but at least, he didn't follow Kana. There will come a day when that guy will confront me about Kana. Even if I don't see him as a threat, since he knew my face, I have to prepare if things got out of hand.

My Pretend Dating Act with Nami and now admitting my relationship with Kana. I have to make sure not to let the two converge at one point.

Ah. I should also add the rumours circulating in Akane's school about us living together under one roof. It will be somewhat of a chaos if someone connected the dots between the three, right?

When I opened the door to the Book Club, I was met with a surprising scenery, the six reading-machines, err, members of the club were nowhere to be found. What happened?

"You're finally here, Ruki." 𝓝𝞸𝒱𝓔𝑙𝑈𝓢𝓑.𝓒𝑂𝓂

I heard Haruko's voice and turned to her corner and saw a more surprising scenery.

Haruko, Himeko and Aya were there. But that's not all, two more girls were with them and they're wearing a different kind of uniform, it's the uniform from Akane's school.

The two weren't a stranger to me, just looking at their faces brought me back to the time when I was trying to steal them. Imai Sena and Kaneko Otoha.

Sena still sported her short black hair that was tied into a ponytail. She never let her hair go past her shoulder to not let it be a distraction when she's training, despite being a boxer, she took great care of her very attractive face. You will only see a beauty but underneath that is a fully aggressive boxer who seldom puts her guard up.

Otoha, on the other hand, still has her long brown hair. Oftentimes, she just let it flow freely on her back, only when she's practicing Kendo will she put it up in a bun on top of her head. At first glance, one can see a demure and noble lady. She always has trouble talking to people but if there's a Shinai on her hand, you should prepare to get beaten by it.

Ah. I remembered becoming their practice partner during and after stealing them. Sena from her fellow boxer boyfriend and Otoha from her supposed fiancee who followed her to our Middle School. Now, they already broke up with them after Ria and Aoi told them that it doesn't matter anymore.

Upon seeing me, the two stood up and ran up to me with their arms wide open.

"Finally! I got to see you again, my Ruki."

Sena energetically said as she hugged and took my lips even without my permission.

"I missed you…"

Unlike Sena, Otoha only silently whispered it as she circled her arms around my waist. This girl was still like this, even after all the things we've done.

I see. Haruko chose this day to go to my house and called them here first.

"You two, I missed you too but can you let me go first?"

I asked them when Sena separated her lips from mine.

"No! A little more. You neglected us, Ruki. Give us more time to do this."

"A little more…"

Then Otoha also reservedly kissed me after seeing it freed by Sena.

I looked at Haruko and saw her amused expression as she watched the two cling to me. She's having fun seeing my troubled face.

Aya and Himeko were also looking at them, surprised at how they're acting right now. Looks like they already had a lengthy discussion and got to know each other.

Haa. I guess I'll let them do what they want for now.

I started responding to their kisses and from there, they alternately took my lips, filling in the longing they had for me.

They didn't even mention how I cruelly cut them off, especially Otoha, she cried in front of me back then and for 1 year that I haven't seen her, she grew more beautiful befitting a noble lady of a prestigious family.

Himeko might be a daughter of a rich and powerful family but Otoha came from a real noble family. Her fiancee was something prepared for her by her grandfather to establish connections to another noble family but because of me, she cut that off.

After 10 minutes of our intimate moments, they finally let me go but they both took my arms and clung to it like they're afraid I'll run away from them.

"Haruko, you didn't tell me about this."

"You silly, I wanted to surprise you. How was it, happy?"

How can I not be happy? Being pressed between two beauties, only those impotent won't be happy about this.

"Ruki, don't complain to Haruko, we also wanted to surprise you."

Sena defended Haruko.

"Uhm, right."

Otoha also asserted.

"Haa. Alright. For the sake of the two of you, I'll let this pass."

I sighed before I reached in to kiss Haruko.

I couldn't just favor these two, right?

And Haruko also knew what I will do so after kissing me, she then urged Aya and Himeko to do the same, Aya also happily kissed me while Himeko deliberated for a bit before doing the same.

Out of the five here, Himeko was the only one I couldn't call mine yet. We had just gotten our first understanding of each other this Monday, but that's still not enough to claim her as mine. I still need more alone time with her,? not like this where there's a lot of my other girls who clearly show their affection to me.

My purpose in coming here was to spend time with Aya and Himeko. Now, there's five of them here. What should I do about this?

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 116: Experience Sharing

With the situation of having five of them in the same room with me, I decided to just go with the flow, joining them as they talked about things that only they understand. Girls talk.

But soon enough, they ran out of topics and automatically, all of their eyes turned to me.

Four of these girls already expressed their love for me while Himeko being the only one who's not on that level yet became interested.

Haruko started it as she reminisced some of our moments together. Not just the time when we were having sex inside the student council office but also those she deemed memorable for her. Like that time when I helped her catch the student council secretary's stalker. It was a middle-aged man. The event and perpetrator haven't been revealed to the whole school body because of the possible backlash to that girl's private and school life. As to where that girl is now, I don't know, maybe at Akane's school?

Sena, on the other hand, was too talkative when her turn came. She narrated how I stole her before.

Well, everything she could remember.

From creating coincidences to meet her, then me joining her local gym where she always trained. From there, I got to talk to her and became her practice partner and trainer.

As to how I stole her from her boyfriend, I fabricated some evidence about him making a pass on some other girl. From there, I tried to comfort her and told her that I can help her investigate. She didn't agree at first but when those pieces of evidence continued turning up, she agreed in the end.

Then while investigating him, I reported to her during our training sessions about my discoveries that I also fabricated.

By giving her doubts, I planted thoughts on her to get even and use me, someone she already knew to take revenge on him. She didn't give in at first but as I corrupted her mind, the couple started arguing with each other.

As a final trigger, I staged for him to be caught in the act with a girl. That girl was one of the girls I already stole and through my command, I made her flirt with him, giving him suggestive ideas.

I timed our appearance when his hands had just touched the girl, Sena caught him in that position. She immediately walked out and the guy followed after her.

Ah. I remember, the girl who I commanded back then was someone who didn't chase after me again after I cut her off. I made her have a horrible experience like that, she probably hates me even if I made sure that nothing will happen to them.

The night later that day, I met Sena and found out that they had made up. I expected that because nothing really happened.

Because of the thoughts I planted to her throughout the days I was with her plus that scene she stumbled upon, she wanted to get back at him.

And me being present at that time, she let me grope her breasts that night. It was only over her clothes but I let her feel good as I fondled her breasts and nipples which stuck out from being erect.

Then during our training, when there's no one around, what we were doing slowly escalated until she almost forgot that she has a boyfriend. Her time was all spent with me, even in school. We'll meet somewhere and do things that can be counted as cheating for her.

When I successfully took her home and claimed her as mine, I found out that she caught him cheating on her again and that time with someone I hadn't staged. He immediately repented and on the surface she forgave him. She couldn't really get mad at him when she's doing the same thing with me. Just that, I made sure we won't be caught.

Only when I fully grasped her in my palm did I tell her about the things I did to steal her. She got mad at me and blamed me for everything. Since I already saw her as mine, I took in everything she threw at me.

I wasn't regretting my actions after all so it didn't matter whether she's mad or not.

But yeah, the thing about how she fell in love with me that made her keep chasing after me, I couldn't remember.

Aya and Himeko's reaction about what she shared was the same, they're both shocked that I could do those things. But everything Sena narrated was true.

The means didn't matter as long as the result was the same. Though I've stopped doing those anymore, I shouldn't try to hide it and be open to all my girls, especially those who I wanted to be mine. I guess I'll tell Nami about my past deeds. If that will turn her away from me then I'll let her feel that I'm a changed man now.

Otoha was the next one who shared about how I stole her. Different from how I did it with Sena, I stole Otoha by challenging her to a Kendo match numerous times. Whoever wins can command the other.

At first, my commands were mild, like holding a conversation to me and speaking with a minimum of 5 words per sentence.

She's like Aya, I immediately noticed how it's hard for her to talk to other people. Her fiance was a selfish prick who only cared about her appearance. Nothing else matters. Whenever he's with her, he'll just keep talking without minding what will be her reaction. Because of him, that trait of hers grew worse.

So through those matches I had won, I gradually let her open up to me. Of course, I didn't win every match. She's strong and she's like a different person whenever she holds her Shinai in her hands.

All her commands whenever she won was all for the sake of her entertainment. There was one time when she ordered me to enact a small part of a stage play alone. With every character played by me.

She's a noble so watching a stage play and musical concerts were like a normal occurrence to her.

Then the point came when we could normally talk to each other without the use of commands, so my next commands were to slowly take advantage of her. I didn't take her first time in my house, instead, she invited me into their house. Her room was even wider than our living room and kitchen together.

It's wide and… lonely.

Apart from the few decorations such as the small stuffed toys she was collecting, nothing noteworthy could be seen from her room.

So after that day, I kept bringing her new stuffed toys she could add to her collection.

And in that wide room of hers, I took her first time. I must be brave at that time, not thinking about the possible consequences if her parents or the head of their family found out what happened.

There were a lot of servants in her house and all of them didn't dare to be disrespectful to her or anyone she brought home.

In the following days after that, I still continued challenging her to a match. Even if I already claimed her as mine, I still have to deal with her fiance. Though I let her keep that kind of relationship, I taught her to shut him down whenever his mouth started running off again. By letting her bring her Shinai in her person, that guy became terrorized by her that whenever he saw her with her Shinai on her back, he would gulp down his own saliva and run away from her.

Though Otoha's words were often cut off by her, the story she shared was understood by everyone listening. They even clapped that she managed to talk that much.

Looks like, from the time they arrived here, Otoha only spoke a few words. She mostly used gestures to communicate with them. My appearance brought back the previous her that I managed to open up.

When Aya shared her story, Otoha shook her hand like she found a comrade. They hit it off quite well and looking at them like that put a smile on my lips.

Himeko didn't share anything since she's still not mine and there's nothing she could share apart from our first kiss and her decision to let me steal her from Haruko. Instead, she asked Otoha about her family. It appears that they already met each other before, in the Kaneko's ancestral house. The two of them are of the same age so when her Grandfather attended some event held by a noble family, he brought Himeko.

It's a small world. Otoha also remembered the little girl back then and like with Aya they also hit it off like finding an old friend. They talked about what happened back then. Turns out Himeko got lost and it was Otoha who found her. She guided and toured her around the place until Himeko found her way back to her Grandfather.

The talks continued and it became somewhat of a lively atmosphere. Even if Sena and Otoha didn't let go of my arm, the other three didn't comment on it.

Soon the time to go home arrived and like they planned, Haruko and the other two will go home with me, they also asked the other two if they wanted to come as well but Aya needed to go home and Himeko has a curfew, together with her little sister, their chauffeur was already waiting outside.

Likewise, Otoha brought her chauffeur and that's how they arrived here. We will also ride their car to our home.

I urged Aya to come with us since we will pass by the station. Otoha also joined me and in the end, she accepted it.

After deciding all that, I asked them to wait for me outside to give me some time with Himeko.

When we're left alone, Himeko looked down with a complicated expression on her face. I don't know what she's thinking but the things she heard about me was probably playing inside her head.

"Himeko…"

I called out her name as I lifted her chin up to look at me.

"W-what? We should go, right?"

"I just want to say how I missed you."

"You playboy. You already have all those attractive girls."

"Well, that doesn't mean I have to give up on you, right? I really missed you, you know?"

"Uhh. You're unbelievable. What do you want to do?" 𝓷𝑶𝒱𝖊𝑙𝓤𝓈𝒷.𝑐𝚘𝓂

"Nothing. Ah! But if there's something, I want another kiss. The kiss earlier isn't enough to ease my longing for you."

I grabbed her by the waist and pulled her closer. I then lowered my head and took her lips into a kiss.

"This greedy guy. You still haven't stolen me, why are you this demanding?"

She said that but Himeko didn't reject my advances, she responded to my kiss and her experience from kissing Haruko was put to use. She's really skilled that it became hard for me to restrain myself.

"Ah. Right, I met your little sister at her club and she seems very concerned about you. She even asked me to tell her everything about you."

After our hot kiss, I didn't forget to tell her how I met her sister.

"Eh? Why would she ask that? She could talk to me…"

"Uhm. I know it's not my position but it seems she's finding it hard to talk to you."

"…Can you tell her next time to come here and meet me?"

Eh? You're sisters, you live under one house, you even go to school and go home together.

"Alright. I'll tell her that. If I can help you with this, I'll ask for more than just a kiss."

There's probably some things I shouldn't ask yet. I'll wait for her to tell me their circumstances which led to this kind of awkward relationship between the sisters.

"Pervert. You still won't stop."

"I love that flustered look on your face, Himeko."

Before we left the room, I kissed her again to end our day. I won't be seeing her for a few days again so I used this time to let myself be imprinted in her mind which can make her remember about me.

Chapter 117: Understanding

𝓷𝗈𝓋𝑬𝑙𝑈𝕊𝕓.𝑐𝑜𝔪

Before we set off to my house, I called Akane and told her about Haruko, Sena and Otoha.

Haruko told me she already informed her but I also want to tell Akane, just like how she advised me back then.

After Yae, it will be these three. Will I have another busy night?

Ah. Otoha couldn't stay the night so they'll leave by 8 pm. Only Haruko will stay since that's what she asked of me.

"Mihara-san, long time no see. Are you doing well?"

I greeted Otoha's chauffeur. Mihara Hitomi, she's what you could call a cold beauty. Her age ranges between Shio and Miwa-nee. She still has her long hair that was done into a ponytail using a white ribbon. Her naturally glaring eyes which were adorned by a small mole on the left side, one look at it and people would already think twice before approaching her. Partnered by her suit which failed to conceal her huge breast, she's the type of woman who will be popular among young men. She was specifically handpicked by Otoha's grandfather to be her chauffeur, bodyguard as well as an instructor. She was already with Otoha ever since 1st grade.

One and a half years ago, when I was still in the process of stealing Otoha, I met her. I was naturally attracted to her but because of my tendency to only go after those girls who were in a relationship, I never entertained the idea of taking her as well, no matter how attractive she is for me.

Err. It was Otoha who introduced her to me. We never had a long conversation and it only always ended in greetings.

She might be her all around bodyguard but she never interferes with Otoha's affairs, even when it's clear as day to her how I was trying to steal Otoha from her fiance. She's even the one who drove us to their house together with Otoha. She's devotedly serving Otoha's family but Otoha told me that she was instructed to only obey her instructions, not even her grandfather can command her. Despite Mihara-san's beauty, she didn't have any inclination to start a family with someone.

There's only one instance that got imprinted in my mind about her. It was how she was interested in sexual things.

Err… since I knew that she wouldn't report back what Otoha and I were doing, oftentimes we'll be all over each other at the backseat of the car. And through the rearview mirror, I could catch Mihara-san watching us.

"I see. Ojou-sama went to meet you again, Ruki-sama."

Her way of calling me didn't change but I guess this is fine, I'm taking back Otoha after all.

I heard from Otoha that she had already asked her grandfather about calling off the engagement. But the decision hasn't been decided yet.

I might be ignorant but it won't be that easy. Her grandfather probably already knows about me. That is if he treasures his granddaughter.

Haruko sat on the passenger seat while the four of us fit ourselves at the backseat.

With Sena at the leftmost side, then Otoha, me and Aya at the rightmost side. Since we'll drop her off at the station Sena conceded that side to her.

It's great to see that even if it's their first time meeting each other, Aya's introverted nature didn't show up often and she could at least hold a conversation with them. Is it because of their similar circumstances of being connected with me? In any case, I love seeing them get along together.

After dropping Aya off, Sena then changed seats to take that side where Aya was sitting earlier.

I looked in the rearview mirror, not only Haruko was looking at us but also Mihara-san. With these two sticking close to me, I don't know what she will think about this situation.

Ah. There's no point minding their gazes, these two will soon grow content at being this close to me. About Mihara-san though, since I'm attracted to her, there might be a point in time where I will also try to take her as mine and now's not the time. She might be interested but my hands are full that I don't even get to see a time to rest.

Well, that will ease up starting next week. The things I have to do for now is to settle these girls, especially those who I haven't met yet, after that will be to plan for the future.

With my limited abilities right now, it won't be a grand of a plan but something in the lines of what I should aim for. And since we're still in high school, studying seriously to learn a trade or two will be my priority.

Stealing girls will still be there since that's just how I really am. That won't just stop but it will be toned down after I'm done with Nami, Shio and Himeko.

The number of girls I have is not normal and well, each of them has their own views for the future. Take Kana who's currently trying her best to change herself for the better. Breaking it off with Kenji, the path ahead of her was now open.

Soon enough, the familiar neighborhood could be seen from the windows.

I already brought Otoha to my house back then so Mihara-san doesn't need any direction on where to go.

"This takes me back, it's been a while since I stepped foot inside your room."

Haruko commented as she looked straight ahead. There's a bit of excitement in her eyes but yeah, Akane and Miwa-nee are there, I wonder how everything will turn out today.

She expressed her want to meet Miwa-nee, the reason for my desire, but what about these two?

"Your room. I remember when I got mad at you there when you revealed everything that you did. You took all of my punches without putting your guard up. After that, you hugged me tight without saying a word nor groans of pain."

Right. There's that instance with Sena, she didn't mention it earlier in consideration of the other two.

"Ruki's room…"

Otoha only muttered that before giggling by herself.

"You three. Can you get along with Akane? That's all I ask of you."

"You don't need to mention that, only Yaeko wanted to compete with her. But you already fixed that, right?"

From the rearview mirror, I saw Haruko's smile.

Ah. The news about Yae spending the night was probably already talked about in that group chat of theirs.

"I have yet to thank Akane. I'll do it today."

Eh? Aren't you the one who thought she was lying when she sent in that group how I was sleeping beside her?

Ah. I guess after sending that picture before, they already accepted that Akane was now also like them.

"Un. Akane made it possible for us to meet again."

By gathering all of them in that group, Akane got to know everyone who harbored feelings towards me. If not for her, they'll probably start showing up one by one or completely give up on me when I cut them off.

"You girls…"

"We don't mind her living with you, just don't forget that we're also here for you."

What more can I say? They're this understanding of the situation, I don't have any worry anymore.

Only Minoru though. He will see another set of beautiful ladies in our house. That boy…

We arrived at my house soon, after disembarking, Otoha also pulled Mihara-san inside the house. She's already like a sister for her so she always tried to pull her everywhere she goes.

With me leading them to the door, Akane greeted us as soon as the door opened.

Haruko went in first and hugged Akane before thanking her.

Then Sena and Otoha followed suit.

Only Mihara-san watched on as to what's happening. Err. She never voiced her thoughts anyway, she's here for Otoha.

After they're done, I went to Akane and kissed her before leading them all to the living room.

Miwa-nee was at the kitchen, cooking our dinner while Minoru was playing games.

When the boy saw the four new arrivals, he was only surprised for a bit before asking who they are.

Err. He's slowly getting used to seeing more of them.

After putting my bag down, I went next to Miwa-nee and greeted her as well.

Akane probably already told her that Haruko and the others will come so she's cooking on a larger pot.

Miwa-nee shooed me away after giving me the kiss I asked of her. She's too focused on cooking that I felt guilty by disturbing her.

Haruko and the other two busied themselves as they circled around the boy which freed Akane from being a punching bag on the game they were playing.

Seeing that, I called Akane to my side to help me prepare tea for everyone.

She's not pouting today and it seems she's really trying to understand that all this will become part of our daily lives now.

"Will you do it with them?"

As we prepare the tea, Akane curiously asked.

"Not necessarily. Unless they ask me for it. I just want to talk to them for us to come to another understanding of what will happen after this."

Err. But not seeing the two for a while, my desire to have them was already ignited. I'll just restrain myself for now so that everything will end well.

They only stuck to me earlier but before leaving my house, they will also decide whether they will stay with me or not. Just like how I asked Ria and Aoi back then.

I also don't need to worry too much about Haruko, she will spend the night here and maybe she will want to talk with Miwa-nee alone.

"Yaeko and I are getting along now, husband. I thought about what you said. That it's much better for us if we all get along with each other."

"Thank you, Akane."

I sincerely thanked her, I might be doing her wrong here but I'm determined to take care of all of them.

After a while, the tea was prepared. We brought it to them before I took Sena upstairs to my room.

I want to hear all their thoughts. There are always things they're not comfortable talking about with others. If we're alone, they will be able to stop restricting themselves from saying anything to me.

I don't know but I was kind of expecting it. Just after closing the door, Sena immediately turned around and embraced me, with tears flowing out of her eyes, she whispered.

"Sorry for getting mad at you and hurting you before. Only when you cut me off did I realize how much I love you…"

"You did those things to steal me and after you succeeded, you changed. Not for the worse but better. Better than him."

I still have no idea how she fell in love with me but now that she's pouring out everything she bottled up, I guess I'm starting to understand.

I also took her in my arms as I quietly listened to everything she had to say.

Chapter 118: Sena and Otoha

Sena cried her heart out to me that my clothes were soon drenched from her tears. I listened to everything she had to say to me as I quietly patted and stroked her hair. I remembered that this is something she really likes me doing for her.

It's only been a few months since I cut her off but she started longing for me a week after that. During that time she became that active in the chat group Akane created to fish out news about me from the group.

To think that the girls I only thought of stealing could develop feelings towards me, it's a bit unbelievable. With how narrow my views were, I'm like the worst person to associate with back then. Especially for them which I used some really despicable methods just to steal them. Creating rifts that could make a crack to their relationship with their partner, blackmailing, and a lot more.

Comparing it to how I am doing it now, it's miles apart that the worse I did was using Kana's photo which immediately lost its purpose.

Sena used the time just crying and calming herself down in my embrace. The feeling she was trying to convey was all felt by me.

Really, I thought of just talking to her and tell her everything that happened to me but with her starting like this, I couldn't start talking. That could wait. I'll slowly tell her about that and about how I also like her.

Being a member of that group, most of them were already accepting of the situation with me. Some of them only thought of maintaining contact but when I started taking them back in, starting from Haruko, they held more discussions about it there.

I asked Akane not to tell me what they were discussing in that chat group but Sena told me what they've agreed together without mentioning the chat group. All of them who responded there were in favor of not forcing themselves on me, they will wait for their turn if that could mean I will still look at them and take them back in.

They all have different reasons for staying and I want to hear all of that from them before giving them the option. There's just really no way for me to divide my time equally to everyone, the only thing I can promise is how I am willing to take them back in and focus on them whenever we're together.

They're all eager to see how I changed and now that Sena's here with me, after calming down, her gaze never left my face. As to what's going on in her mind, I don't know.

We're currently just sitting at my bed while I hold her in my arms.

"Is there something wrong with my face?"

I asked. Because even after a few minutes, she didn't say anything and just continued looking at me like that. Her face was still flawless. Though I've already seen it swollen after a boxing match, she always takes good aftercare for restoring it back.

"Nothing. Just recording your image in my head. If you cut me off again, I'll use your image as my shadow boxing opponent."

Err… You mean punching bag. My image won't be an opponent since I will just be standing in front, not showcasing any moves.

"My Ruki... Ah. You're not only mine, do I have to change that way of calling you?"

"But I'm still yours at this moment, you know?"

"Heh. It seems not everything changed about you. I thought I'll see a different you after hearing everything from them."

"I just got a clear view of things and my feelings about you. Just like how you all came to like me, I'm the same. It sounds unfaithful but this is one of the things I couldn't change."

"We already understand that. You know, we all have our own version of you in our eyes. But one thing is common, we all felt that you greatly cared for us."

"I'm afraid not everyone thought like that."

"My Ruki, don't beat yourself from those who chose to accept being cut off by you. Maybe you did something that earned their hate but I'm sure, like with us, you took care of them in your own way."

Sena tried to comfort me. Her words do make sense but only they can answer if I truly took care of them.

Wherever they are right now, if I meet them again, I'll apologize. But do I really have the right to apologize if I didn't even regret what I did to them?

"You don't need to comfort me, Sena. I'm fully aware of what I did to them."

"For you to start showing this kind of face… It's really not an exaggeration. Though I don't dislike this, I still want to see your previous self. The guy who no matter what happened has that confident look on his face."

She sat up and started kissing my lips. She's looking for the me who was imprinted in her own memory. The guy who stole her.

I responded to her kisses as I mulled over her words. My previous self was still here but because of the realization and changes that happened these past few days, I might've become a little lost on how I should really act around them.

Who they fell in love with wasn't the changed me but the one who at one point made them fall away from normality. The me who despite countless challenges, never gave up on them.

Thanks to Sena, my head became a bit clearer. I might still be a little lost but the path ahead became a bit clearer now. I shouldn't show them my weak side again. Confidently face what's ahead, be it my future with them and everything that will come right after.

Sena and I never went past our passionate kiss, despite being this close to me, Sena was already satisfied at what I showed her. I also conveyed my feelings for her through our time together. My desire for her was still satisfied even with just this, there's still more time in the future when we will just feel that need to feel each other in a more intimate way

After a while we decided to go back down, she only requested one thing from me, it was to go back to the gym again and train with her. She claimed that her performance was better when there's still me around.

I accepted it and told her that I can only go there at least once a week. I've only registered there for the purpose of stealing her after all. So we'll schedule it through messenger so our time will match. I also offered her that if she wanted she could go here once in a while to train with me in that mini-gym I had.

She happily accepted that suggestion. Because of that, She jumped at me again and we shared another passionate kiss where she kept whispering her affection to me.

When we arrived downstairs, everyone was looking at us, well, except Minoru.

We didn't take too much time so they were probably wondering if we did it or not.

I'm not inclined to answer so after settling Sena down, I took some time to call Kana first. I told her I'll call in to check on her. When she answered, I could feel Kana's joy at hearing my voice. After making sure she's fine, I said goodbye to her after making a promise to not skip club on Monday.

After that, I went to Otoha next.

I asked Mihara-san for permission but since the decision still depended on Otoha, she looked at her. Otoha nodded indicating her willingness to come with me upstairs.

Miwa-nee was still at the kitchen and she only took a glance before going back to what she's doing, Haruko and Akane were alternately fighting Minoru on that game and they're both losing at him, well Haruko purposely let herself be defeated, unlike Akane who seriously play but still lose against the boy.

After bringing Otoha to my room, unlike Sena she didn't immediately cling to me but instead, she looked around it, trying to remember the time she was last here.

"Something changed from your room, Ruki."

With us being alone, Otoha's trouble from talking vanished, only with me will she fully open up. But her actions earlier were all genuine, that's how she acted around others but it's different with me.

"Yep. I wasn't using this room for some time now. And I moved some of my things to our room."

And when we're alone, I never hide things from her. That's my way for her to trust me completely, she believed I would never lie to her. Even after a year that we haven't met each other, that trust she has with me never faded.

"... You always sleep together with Akane now. We never slept together yet, right?"

Otoha fell silent for a moment since her back was facing me, I couldn't see what face she's making right.

"It will be bad if we did, you can't stay the night here and I can't stay the night in your room."

Mihara-san was always with her and she couldn't go to someone else's house. Likewise, I couldn't stay there with her. Her family were always around at night. I could sneak in, yes but I'll probably be hanged if they found me inside her room.

"I always wanted to do that with you, Ruki. Sleeping next to you, waking up next to you. You being the last person I will see at night and the first person I will see come morning…"

"Then let me think of something, I'll make it possible for us."

I went closer to her and this time, I'm the one who initiated, hugging her from the back, I rested my chin on her shoulder. I finally got a glance at her face and it's showing her gentle and satisfied smile from my words and my action right now.

She knew that if I told her that, I would really make it possible.

"One year. Did you also miss me?"

She put her hand over mine as she let herself be comfortable with this position where I'm hugging her from behind.

"I do. I'm sorry for making you cry, Otoha."

I really missed this girl, well, all of them actually. The day I cut her off, Otoha really cried a lot that I thought that would be the end of me interacting with someone of her stature. But now, here we are again, this time I won't make her cry for a second time.

"Uhm… take responsibility."

Like she rehearsed it, Otoha voiced out her thoughts.

"How?"

Taking responsibility. I already decided to do that for everyone. 𝗇𝒐𝗏𝐄𝓵𝓊𝗌𝐛.𝗰𝗈𝓜

"I will introduce you to my grandfather."

Otoha said with conviction. Her face turned serious like this is something she planned.

"Are you sure? It's your grandfather while I'm just a nobody"

That's a head of a noble family, no matter how brave I am, that's someone where words couldn't buy my way out if I offended him.

"Un. I want to change too, with you. It's time for him to finally acknowledge me."

Otoha nodded and explained why she wanted to do that. Looking at her determined face, I finally get to see that this girl finally grew up from her previous state.

"I'm glad. My Otoha finally started to step out of her insecurity."

Her insecurity, being a daughter of a noble house, she thought she wouldn't have a chance at normalcy. That's the real reason why she's finding it hard to talk to others, those who know her family were afraid that they might accidentally offend her so they always talk to her in a respectful tone while those who do not know, they try to get closer but she doesn't know most of what they're talking about so most of the time she only listened and hardly talk.

"It's all thanks to you… When you left my side, I once again fell into the same situation before I got to know you."

"Mihara-san was still there for me but without you, I felt incomplete. There's no one like you, Ruki…"

Otoha turned around to return my hug before initiating a kiss. I could feel her shaking like she used all her strength to say all of this to me. Like Sena, I'm taking her back so whatever she wants me to do, I will do it.

It's just meeting her grandfather. I will be taking her granddaughter for myself, sooner or later I will also have to deal with him so this is for the better.

Chapter 119: Kaneko Otoha*

Unlike Sena, Otoha asked me to push her down to the bed. It's been more than a year for her so her longing that was bottled up was more than what Sena has.

Putting her down to the bed, I immediately got on top of her.

Her long brown hair sprawled on the bed and with her uniform a bit disheveled, her figure which became sexier than how I remembered lay before my eyes. Even her breasts that were previously on the average size grew and were now approaching a bigger cup.

"You've become sexier, Otoha."

I revelled at her figure as I started kissing her. From her forehead, down to her nose and her lips that were already red from all the kisses we shared since earlier at school.

"E-eh? I've only grown a bit..."

Unconvinced by what I said, Otoha tried to deny it. But before she could even shake her head. My hand went straight to her breast and grabbed it.

"No, not just a bit. Look, before, this wouldn't spill out of my hand."

I grabbed her breasts and squeezed it, which made her produce a soft moan.

"Ahn! This naughty hand."

Otoha grabbed my hand and instead of removing it, she pushed it further, encouraging it to do more.

"I knew you like this. Can I take this off?"

Though I asked, my hands were already unbuttoning her uniform.

"Y-yes..."

Otoha muttered her consent as she watched me undress her. Her face was already so red, anyone would be turned on and will definitely pounce on her if they saw her like that.

"There. My Otoha is always this beautiful."

As I finished undressing her, I ran my hand on her smooth skin, relishing her body once again. This demure lady was already defiled by my hands a year ago, and today, after a year of not seeing each other, my desire for her reached its highest.

I feel like I will still push her down even if she didn't ask for it.

"Hearing your voice and feeling your touch again, I feel like I'm back to that day when I first met you."

Otoha started reminiscing as my hands slowly explored her truly erotic body. She felt my hands and talking about this is probably her way not to moan out.

"Ah. That day when I first challenged you."

I completely forgot the instance where we first met but when Otoha mentioned it, memories about her and the memories I had of her started resurfacing. Especially those memories that could be said to be important to her.

Licking her down from her neck, I reached her two soft mountains with her nipples already standing erect, waiting for someone to take them.

I licked it and played with it using my tongue, coating her nipples with my saliva.

"Y-yes, Aahn! Mmhh… A cute little junior challenged me in a Kendo Match. I only thought of putting you in awe."

Cute little junior eh? But yeah, Otoha looks so cool back then. She's even popular to those who couldn't understand the gap with her personality.

Otoha started moaning from what I'm doing but it didn't stop her reminiscing. Of course, I also joined her while I was sucking her nipples. Alternating the two, I enjoyed it thoroughly before travelling further down.

"But I didn't dodge your shinai and instead, I circled my arms around you."

Right. I wonder why I did that. To surprise her? She wouldn't expect me doing that during a match after all.

With my tongue travelling down, my hands also worked at pulling down her skirt and panties.

"N-naughty junior."

I don't know if she's pertaining to the me she was reminiscing about or to the one enjoying her body right now.

Either way, Otoha let me do as I wish. Spreading her legs open, her sacred place was once again in my full view.

I couldn't help but gulp down my saliva as I started salivating due to it. I raised her legs and got down to it. With my tongue, I licked her already wet pussy slurping her love nectar.

Otoha couldn't contain her moans because of it. She held my head and pushed it down as if encouraging me to do more.

"You got too flustered that even when holding your shinai,? you reverted back to your usual self."

The way she turned red from someone suddenly hugging her at that time further strengthened my desire to steal her.

I continued her reminisce as I ate her out, from licking it, I started sucking on her entrance and her clit. And not satisfied with it, I also started fingering her which resulted in her producing more love nectar.

"Haahn... I thought you wouldn't remember. Mmmhhn"

From the stimulation I'm giving her, Otoha soon reached her first climax. But even with that, I didn't stop eating her out. Climaxing once isn't enough to satisfy her. I'll fill in the days we were not together.

"Sorry, I really forgot but the memory resurfaced as soon as you started talking about it."

I honestly told her about not remembering it. Otoha smiled, seemingly satisfied by my honesty. She then proceeded to pull me up, halting my work on her down there. Staring at her erotic face, there's no doubt that she wanted more than just my tongue and fingers now.

"You, remembering about it is enough. Promise me you won't cut me off again."

Otoha pleaded with her eyes which already had the hint of tears. She probably remembered the day I cut her off. About how I just turned my back to her even if she started crying.

I took her lips again, to convey what I'm feeling about her right now. Pouring in the affection I have for her, Otoha received it smilingly.

"I promise. Never will I say something like that again."

"Then hold me, Ruki."

With her arms and legs spread open, Otoha was completely giving herself to me. I didn't let her wait any longer.

The others were probably waiting for us now but my whole focus was on this lovely lady pouring her heart out for me.

And without any more words between us, my cock once again plunged deep inside her after more than a year.

The room was then filled with Otoha's moans and the sounds made from our intercourse. Otoha matched my moves and sometimes took the lead. Everything I taught and did with her back then was once again put to use.

Drowning ourselves to our lust towards each other, Otoha climaxed at least 4 times while I cummed inside her twice, filling up her womb with my semen.

When we went back downstairs, the glint in their eyes? already told me that they knew what happened or probably heard us. Even Mihara-san who almost never gets flustered even when she's watching us through the rearview mirror had a hint of blush on her face.

Her noble lady had just an intense lovemaking session with me.

At least even if they knew, no one mentioned it. Or they're afraid to mention it because it might turn the atmosphere awkward. Sena had a longing on her face, maybe regretting she didn't ask for it as well. That girl, I'll visit her in the gym soon.

Miwa-nee then called us to dinner. Minoru was all smiles as he dragged Akane and Haruko to the table. Looks like he's too happy and satisfied about winning against the two in that game.

Since Otoha was already satisfied with our two rounds, she didn't fight for the seat next to me. Akane took my right and Sena took my left. Haruko was someone who's not really competitive when it comes to me. She always does things on her pace, sometimes she can be clingy but most times she will silently concede her place to others.

She's not like this before, maybe the time when she will just contain me in the Student Council got to her. Afraid that I will just escape from her again, Haruko never got that restrictive anymore ever since meeting her again and taking her back in.

Miwa-nee's cooking was really something on the level of a housewife, not as good as those in the restaurant but tasty enough for the family to enjoy. We all ate quietly at first but soon discussion arose.

Since she was busy earlier, the four who came home with me, including Mihara-san, were introduced to her. Then Haruko, like meeting an older sister, thanked her like she planned to do ever since I told her about the reason for my desire.

If not for Miwa-nee, I won't go out of my way to steal girls left and right. I wouldn't have any contact with other girls such as Haruko, Yae, Sena, Otoha and all the others that I have stolen from their boyfriends.

Sena and Otoha followed suit, thanking her but with all that gratitude, Miwa-nee refused to accept it. She's still blaming herself about what happened to me.

Akane only silently listened as we both ate our dinner. Sometimes she will wipe a stain on my face and she will do the same. And that's enough for her to take her mind off their topic that's somehow uncomfortable for her.

After dinner, I told Otoha to take a bath first but since the time is approaching 8 o'clock, Mihara-san told her that she already told the servants to prepare for a bath at home. Hearing that, I didn't insist anymore.

They will drop Sena at her doorstep so I don't have to worry how the two will go home. I walked with them outside and watched on until the car they're riding in disappeared from my sight.

Another two were added to the girls that I took back in. The four who I encountered when Akane showed me their group were all back to being mine. But there are still others waiting for their turn, I'll meet them all in their school soon. 𝐧𝑂𝒱𝓔𝓵𝑢𝕊𝑏.𝑪𝒪𝑚

When I went back inside, Akane and Miwa-nee was nowhere in sight. Only Haruko was left in the living room. She told me that Akane was preparing the bath while Miwa-nee took Minoru upstairs.

Haruko pulled me to sit next to her and like someone who wanted to be pampered, she clung to me tightly.

"Everything went well with Sena and Otoha?"

She asked. This surprise from her, I'm glad it turned for the better.

"Un. Thank you for bringing them, Haruko."

I nodded as I put my arm over her shoulder.

"Stop thanking me, silly. I'm just doing what I can do for you."

Right. That's what she always does. Taking care of my desire, helping me with Aya, giving me advice and now this time with Sena and Otoha.

"You've already done enough, you know?"

This girl is really turning herself to something more special for me.

"It will never be enough. Won't you marry me as well?"

Haruko shook her head before dropping that question.

"Err… I will if possible."

"Then let's make it possible."

"Huh? How?"

"Silly, there are other places allowing that or we can just make a new identity for you."

"This girl, your ideas… it's still too early for that."

"I know. But it's better to be prepared."

"…Alright, we'll prepare for it as well."

"Yes! I love you, Ruki."

Like a kid who has her wish granted, Haruko threw herself to me and rained me down with kisses.

"Un. I love you too."

Now that she brought up that idea maybe it's really not bad to prepare for it. Unlike Yae who was satisfied even if I didn't marry her in the future, Haruko was different, she wanted to take my name and replace her last name with mine.

Haa. I'll respect each of their wishes and try to grant them all to the best of my abilities.

Akane soon emerged from the bath, since I planned for all of them to get along, I asked Akane to let Haruko join us. Knowing my intention, she reluctantly accepted it after I promise to spoil her more tonight and tomorrow at our date.

Ah. It will be a long night again.

Chapter 120: Restraint*

Though I expected this to be a long night, it was about to be over. Or is it?

I planned to go to Haruko but she specifically told me after our bath that it's fine not to come since the time we had at the bath and the promise I made was enough to satisfy her for tonight.

I don't know but I felt like that was her restraining herself again. But since she told me not to come, am I supposed to just accept it?

It's not only them who were longing for me, I am longing for them as well.

"Akane. You heard what Haruko said, right?"

I called out to Akane who was making herself comfortable as she lay her head on my chest, she's still short of breath after a round of sex with me. Though already used to it, we never get tired of each other and the pleasure was still the same as our first night.

"Yes, actually I'm happy she said that. But husband, you can't accept it, right?"

Getting straight to the point, this girl can really read me.

"…Yes."

Haruko asked to spend a night here. It will be a weekly occurrence and the only time I can be alone with her outside of school.

"I think I'm starting to understand it, husband. All this time I thought it was only us longing for you but you also wanted to be with all of us, right? You treat them equally, I'm already lucky enough to be the one taking this place beside you as someone special. So if I try to restrain you, I feel like it will be just me acting selfishly."

Looking up to me, Akane voiced out her thoughts. She's right. I really want to be with all of them, that's why I always ask them to get along together.

"But I'm the most selfish here, Akane. As much as I want to do right for you, I already love most of them and I want them as much as I want you. I couldn't blame this on just my desire now, this is also on me."

I also told her about my thoughts. If before I can conveniently say it's my desire to call out for them. But this time, feeling that emotion for them, it's not just my desire that Miwa-nee implanted but also what I really feel.

"Un… So what are you waiting for? Go and check upon them, husband. I'll stay here and wait for your return."

We maintained eye contact and I could see Akane accepting what I said. We're growing and through this growth, we will understand each other much better. I decided to marry her in the future and this won't change.

I'm selfish, greedy and stupid. I'm thankful enough that all of them are this understanding of our own situation, I guess making this all work out will be my goal.

"I'll always return to your side, Akane. And I'll always stay until you fall asleep."

These are the only words I could say to her for now. No matter what happens or no matter how many girls I add, I will always return to her side. That much is true.

Akane nodded and kissed me. And through that kiss, her feelings were being conveyed to me. there was helplessness in it and also acceptance. Helpless of our situation and acceptance of what it really is.

Before she fell asleep, Akane told me how Miwa-nee received a call earlier and it was possibly from her husband based on her reaction after the call.

I found nothing wrong with Miwa-nee earlier but it was probably her putting up a front again. I couldn't find the time to talk to her these past few days after that night between us.

Ah. Right. I might find her emptying my father's collection of wine again. Let's see.

After leaving the room, I went to check on Haruko first. Like I thought she's still not asleep.

"Silly, why are you here?"

Upon opening the door, Haruko's figure welcomed me. Since she knew she'll stay the night here, she brought her own sleepwear. A negligee that's tight enough to accentuate her curves. She even removed her bra and that made her already sexy body turn even more erotic. Just looking at her with her hair let down, I already felt the urge and desire to have her.

"Guess?"

I answered in another question. But yeah, the lust I'm feeling for her right now will probably not go unnoticed.

"I don't need to. I can see it with your eyes. I'm foolish, aren't I?"

As I thought, she felt my searing gaze directed at her body.

"Yes, you are. I also long for my Haruko, you know?"

As I stepped my foot inside the room, I pulled the door close behind me.

"I tried to restrain myself here but I guess I shouldn't have done that from the start. Ruki, is it fine to be as selfish whenever I stay here?"

Haruko stepped forward and circled her arms around my back. Hugging me like that, my arms also moved and pulled her even closer.

"It's more than fine. In fact, I don't want to see you restraining yourself again, Haruko."

I whispered in her ear as I started to suck and lick on it. Haruko shuddered slightly as she felt my tongue and lips encroaching her ear.

"Ah. That I can't do, I'm not just doing that for you, Ruki. Understand that to make this setup work, all of us should learn to restrain ourselves, you included."

With her eyes closed, as she was relishing the sensation brought by what I am doing, Haruko rejected and explained her reasoning.

Restrain ourselves. I guess she's right about that. I also needed restraint.

"I understand, but not in a night like this, right?"

Even so, now's noy the time for restraint. Moving on from her ears, I went to her lips and took it in a passionate kiss which Haruko responded with the same passion. Putting my tongue inside her mouth, she sucked on it and after a while, the situation changed to me sucking her tongue. It was in that heat of passion that we slowly moved towards the bed.

"Just tell me you want me, silly. I still want to hear words like that from you."

Breaking off our kiss to catch our breath, Haruko found the window to answer me.

"I want you, Haruko."

I smiled and wholeheartedly told her. I want her. Right 'want' again but this is not the convenient word I often used before. It's the genuine want to take her.

"I want you too, Ruki. I missed you, I mean I always want to do this with you, anytime, anywhere."

Haruko smiled back and poured out her feelings.

With the restraints removed from both of us, just like back in that sound-proofed room, Haruko and I revel at each other.

Starting from foreplay, she pulled me down the bed and got on top of me with her back turned to me, she then bent down to settle herself near my mouth. Haruko was not wearing any underwear. I only noticed her not having a bra earlier but I guess, she didn't put on any down here as well.

This girl was also waiting for me to come so she prepared herself like this.

Understanding her intention, I immediately plunged my tongue on her sacred place, licking it and sucking on it fervently. Along with her moans, her love nectar started gushing out of her.

And while in that position, Haruko bent down and took out my cock, after stroking it to make it stand up, she started sucking it off. With her head skillfully moving up and down, my cock became fully erect in no time and it even started to produce precum which she also sucked out and gulped down.

We continued in that position until one of us couldn't hold it anymore. Haruko reached her first climax, my mouth never let go of her pussy as I sucked everything she cummed.

I pulled myself up from below her before kneeling behind with my cock aimed at her. While still bent down and in the process of recovering from her climax, I raised Haruko's butt up and pushed my cock inside her, from the tip up to the base in one thrust.

Haruko couldn't help but moan out loud as I started pounding her from behind. With every thrust of my hips, she will tighten up, making it both feel incredible for us. And like what she always wanted, her buttcheeks weren't spared, slapping both of them until it turned red, Haruko's moans filled the room.

We continued in that position with my hands holding her hips, the pace at which I pounded her started to speed up. And soon enough, I also reached my first climax and Haruko her second. Pouring in everything deep inside her.

I didn't pull my cock out as we changed our position to go to the second round immediately. Pulling her body up, I put us in the sitting position and turned her around.

Now face to face to each other, we started kissing again while my hands were on her butt supporting her hips as it moved up and down, slowly reaching our tempo.

Once she got her tempo, I removed my hand in there as I took off her negligee, revealing her twin peaks again. My hand immediately grabbed then and pinched her nipples which made her move faster. 𝔫𝓞𝚟𝓮𝓵𝑈𝑠𝐛.𝚌𝓞𝗆

Breaking off our kiss, my tongue slid down from her lips down to her neck before arriving at her breasts.

I sucked at her nipples as she continued humping down my cock, when she got tired from it, I laid her down to the bed and continued what she was doing.

Haruko clung tightly to me as her legs circled around my back. Now it's even tighter as I increased the speed of my hips, intent on finishing and cumming inside her again.

Her moans and the wet sounds that were being made every time I thrust deep inside her were the only sounds filling up the room. We don't need words to convey our feelings for each other.

And just like that, our second round ended with me finishing inside her for the second time.

Both catching our breaths, I pulled my cock out from her and my semen immediately spilled out from inside.

She used her hand to put it back inside her before cleaning her hand using her mouth. Ah. This girl was always this erotic. Only to me will she show this side of her.

Pulling her back into my arms, I repositioned ourselves to bed. Haruko didn't say a word and just snuggled herself into my arms, feeling my warmth.

Satisfied with what we did. Haruko soon fell asleep while making sure she's as close to me as possible. Her peaceful face as she snuggled to me was something I always wanted to see. What she said about learning to restrain ourselves, it does make sense. Especially for me who's the only one catering for their needs.

But yeah, it's a bit hard to restrain if you have these beautiful girls waiting for you.

Chapter 121: Miwa-nee's Worries

When Haruko fell asleep, I didn't leave immediately. For 10 minutes, I watched her sleep peacefully. She had a smile on her face and she kept mumbling my name. Whatever she was dreaming, I was there.

As I thought, I couldn't afford to lose them again. I want to satisfy all of them so they wouldn't be able to think about leaving me. The purpose of opening the option to leave was to let them feel that I'm not taking away their freedom to choose. And if ever someone opts out, I will surely be hurt by it. It just meant that I failed to satisfy her.

Err but I already took away that option for Haruko and Yae. Like Akane, they're the ones I don't really want to lose, no matter what. This might be my possessiveness again and it now encroached the three of them.

After leaving the room, I went downstairs first to see if Miwa-nee is there, and surprisingly she's nowhere to be seen. Not even an empty bottle. She didn't leave their room after going upstairs earlier.

Should I check their room?

Of course, I should. Let's assume she also wanted to talk to me.

Taking my feet to their room, I was hindered by the door. It's locked and it's a bit rude to knock on it when it's already this deep in the night.

Miwa-nee was probably already asleep.

I'll be with Akane for the whole day tomorrow and we'll only be back in the morning the next day. Should I wait until Sunday to talk to her?

I spent the next 15 minutes mulling over that thought. Only when the drowsiness took over me that I decided to not wait until Sunday. There might be a possibility that tomorrow will be the day her husband will come here and pick them both up. I need to know now so I can feel at ease at my date with Akane tomorrow.

Putting my hand on the door, I knocked at it while calling out Miwa-nee's name.

What should I say to her, anyway? That I heard from Akane that she got a call earlier and I was wondering what was that about?

Haa. Or should I straight up ask her about the reason why she left home?

Miwa-nee purposely did not mention it because I'm still a kid in her eyes and that I couldn't really help her.

And it's probably true. But I won't stay as a kid forever, I will grow up, we will grow up and we will be exposed to that adult world Aunt Akemi, Shio and Miwa-nee was talking about.

It took me about 10 knocks before I heard activity inside and footsteps going to the door. A short while later, the door opened with Miwa-nee still half-asleep.

"R-ruki? What is it? It's still the dead of the night."

She started, there's nothing wrong with her voice nor her question. Did something really happen?

"I came to see Miwa-nee. We haven't had a proper talk since that night."

In the end, this is the reason I can come up with. But it's true, after that night, we did have a certain connection now but we haven't talked about the important things.

Like what will happen between us now or does it mean she also loves me? I don't know and Miwa-nee never voiced it out.

"This brat. That could wait, right?"

Putting a hand on her forehead, Miwa-nee expressed dissatisfaction.

"No. I…"

Why am I stuttering? Am I actually afraid to tell her that I want to know everything?

My gaze traveled from Miwa-nee to the boy sleeping soundly on his bed.

Ah. Right. That's what was making me afraid. I became too conscious of Minoru.

"Huh? What?"

Miwa-nee was starting to frown. Her half-sleep state was removed. I woke her up but here I am hesitating.

Haa. I should stop doing this and come clean to why am I here.

"I heard from Akane, you got a phone call earlier."

When she heard what I said, Miwa-nee's expression turned from a frown to a gloomy one. It was only for a split second and she shook her head immediately.

"It's nothing, you don't have to concern yourself over it."

Miwa-nee averted her gaze from me as she whispered those words. In the end, she still doesn't want to tell me.

"Can I be honest with you, Miwa-nee?"

This is the last resort. I'll tell her everything I am worried about. If it's still not enough for her to talk about her own problem then that's my loss…

I stepped closer to her and reached for her hand which was balled into a fist. This happened when I mentioned the phone call.

I didn't let go of her hand and held onto it until she somehow calmed down.

"Haa. Alright. Come in first. I don't want us to keep talking by the door."

Sighing in resignation, Miwa-nee invited me in. I didn't miss that opportunity to hug her. She was surprised at first but in the end, she let me hug her as the door closed behind me.

"Coming here at this time. What are you thinking?"

The volume of her voice lowered in consideration for the sleeping boy. I feel sorry for him but I really love his mom and I want to share her worries, even if there's nothing I can do yet.

"I'll be with Akane tomorrow and we'll be back by Sunday morning. I'm just afraid that during that time, you'll leave and I won't see you again."

I could feel her tremble a bit upon hearing what I said, then Miwa-nee turned around and patted my head.

"We won't leave, Ruki. This much, I can tell you. But more than that, don't ask me yet."

She lifted my chin and stared at me. Our lips were only a few centimetres apart. The words she said about them not leaving, is it fine to believe it?

"Why can't I ask about it? Miwa-nee, I want to hear what's troubling you and share your worries."

I'm probably reaching too far here. But I can't think of anything else.

"No. I don't want to drag you into it. You let me remember my buried feelings for you and that just further heightened this sense of responsibility I'm feeling."

Miwa-nee shook her head and moved her gaze away from me like she's afraid I'll pick up something from her eyes.

"Why? Does it concern me?"

Sense of responsibility... Is it really about Minoru? I really won't know if she won't tell me. And I don't want to assume things. Should I really wait until she decided to tell me? 𝑛𝑂𝗏𝑒𝑙𝑈𝓈𝔅.𝗰𝑜𝑚

"Ruki, please? I'll tell you when it's all over."

Miwa-nee turned her gaze back to me and with pleading eyes and tone, she begged me.

"Is it because I'm still a kid in your eyes?"

I asked her back and the answer she gave me was as I expected.

"Yes. It's like that. I don't want to burden you by telling you that. Just grow up and in due time, I'll tell you everything."

Nodding her head, Miwa-nee hugged me back. My face was immediately buried in her voluptuous chest. Normally I would enjoy this sensation but after not getting the answer I want, I was frustrated instead.

"Why am I not satisfied with this answer?"

Now, this is just me pressing the issue but Miwa-nee calmly answered me. She's adamant about her decision.

"Because you're stubborn. Ruki, I love you, okay? For now, let me protect you from any unnecessary worries."

Hearing 'I love you' from her should make me happy but her next words just really hit me too hard.

I'm the one being protected and not the other way around.

"Miwa-nee, you're being unfair."

"Maybe I am. And I won't say this is only for you. Alright. You can go back now."

Releasing me from her arms, Miwa-nee started walking back to their bed. Minoru was still sleeping there. That boy…

"Am I really no good?"

Now I'm just repeating everything. No matter what I say, Miwa-nee won't tell me. Should I just make her drunk and ask her during it?

But if I did, she'll surely be disappointed in me. It will be like I forced her.

"You're more than good but you see, it's not something we can solve just by sitting and talking it out. So as much as possible, I don't want you to know."

But I already have an idea. I somehow already knew about it.

Miwa-nee, her gaze was alternating between Minoru and me. As much as I don't want to believe it yet, her words, even if it's vague, it all points in that direction.

"When will you tell me?"

Giving up, I could only sigh and turn to the door while throwing this last question that meant giving up on making her talk.

"When everything's over."

I stopped my tracks and looked back at her, Miwa-nee also stopped and just stared at me after saying that.

"Miwa-nee, I love you. Even if you tell me that, I will probably keep asking you, maybe not tomorrow or the next, but it will happen. I just can't stand seeing you shouldering all of that."

I'm planning for our future but this, this just proved that I'm still far from accomplishing anything. I might've been good at coaxing girls at my age but that's all there is to it. Miwa-nee couldn't even tell me her worries because she wanted to protect me.

What should I really do? It's not like I can stop and focus on making Miwa-nee acknowledge me. I know that my thinking is flawed. I'm loving a lot of girls and sacrificing everyone for only one is something I cannot do. Not at this point. Should I really just accept this and wait?

"I know but this is my choice, Ruki."

Right. Miwa-nee's choice.

Even if I'm feeling indignation about this, there's really nothing that I can do.

Turning around again. I continue traversing the last few steps to the door to leave their room.

But before I can reach for the doorknob. Miwa-nee came running and hugged me from the back, I could feel my shoulder turning wet. Tears. Miwa-nee is crying.

"Can you stay for a bit?"

She asked.

"If it's for Miwa-nee then I can."

Right, for now, this is all I can do for her.

I turned around and reached my hand to her face, after wiping her tears away, I took her lips into mine. She didn't reject it and instead, she responded to it.

We left the room right after to not disturb the sleeping Minoru, settling on one of the empty rooms. Our inhibitions were released and from there everything naturally happened. I've just thought of putting restraint earlier but this one time, I couldn't pass up on this. After all, time with Miwa-nee were always this short.

I really love this aunt of mine and I'm sure she's feeling the same towards me. I can't do anything for her yet, but I'll make sure there will come a day when I can carry her burden for her. Well, not only for her but for everyone else.

Chapter 122: First Date (1)

"Good morning, husband."

Akane greeted me as soon as my eyes opened. She's already out of her sleepwear, did I oversleep?

Her golden hair that was usually undone was tied into a bun and an apron was draped over her body.

Did she just finish cooking?

It's a new day and Akane was beaming an excited smile. Today is our date, I already planned everything except for dinner. Well, it's not exactly planned. I'm also new to this so we'll go where our feet go.

"Good morning, what time is it?"

After sharing our morning kiss, I asked Akane.

After spending the time with Miwa-nee last night, I walked her back to their room. In the end, we only satisfied our lust for each other. I liked it, yes. But soon, I want her to open up to me to share everything she doesn't want to tell me.

When I went back to our room, Akane woke up and we talked in length about how I couldn't get Miwa-nee to open up to me. That continued until I fell asleep snuggling to her. 𝒩𝑂𝗏𝐄𝓵𝓊𝐬𝐁.𝒸𝑶𝔪

"Half-past eight. Come down now, Haruko, Miwa-nee and Minoru are waiting."

She pulled me up by the arm. She's really in a good mood today, it's because of our date right?

But I really overslept. It's probably because of how tired I was yesterday. I lost count how many times I did it with them. Starting from the morning with Yae and Akane. Then with Aya after PE and at night starting from Otoha and ending it with Miwa-nee.

Restraint. Haa.

But it's really hard to hold myself back for them.

"Looking at you, you cooked for us, wife?"

After standing up, we went out of the room together with her sticking close to me. All that's left was for her to ask me to carry her.

"I suddenly thought that you would wake up soon so I left it for Haruko to finish."

Eh? Akane? Do you really have a gadget that not only detects my presence but also monitors whether I am asleep or awake?

"I'm really glad you two never clash like with Yae."

Well, it was partly because of me. I knew Yae wanted to do something for me but since there's nothing yet, I ended up neglecting her.

"But I'm more afraid of Haruko than Yae. Her attitude and demeanor scream housewife..."

Akane's voice trailed as she described Haruko.

"Oh? Actually, she expressed how she wanted me to marry her as well. She's not trying to compete, she wants the same position as you."

Marrying the two of them. Ah, maybe not just the two. That's something I need to prepare for the future.

"Will I still be special if you also marry her?"

When she asked that, I could feel her worry. The position she managed to get will be shared. That's a needless worry though, even if I marry everyone that doesn't change that she's the most special.

"Of course. You'll always be."

I stopped walking and turned to face her. We're already about to descend the stairs but this girl needs another reminder so she wouldn't worry about this again. I'll keep reminding her until she fully accepts it.

She's the one who understands me the most but at these times, she always forgets the words I had told her. No matter what happens, she'll be the most special.

Pushing her inside my previous room, the bed was neatly arranged and it still has the scent of what transpired here last night.

"Akane, you can come here anytime you want. But no one else can set foot in our room besides the two of us "

I hugged her from the back as she took in the state of my previous room.

This was where we first slept together after years of neglecting her. She basically forced herself in here to sleep with me but that night where I held her in my arms once again became a fond memory to me after remembering my love for her.

"Un. No matter what happens, I'll be your most special."

Muttering those words, Akane turned to me and hugged me back.

Her worries weren't unfounded anyway. Anyone will feel the same if they're in the same position as her. I'll use this day to let her feel those words and not just hear it from me or from her memory of me saying that to her.

When we arrived at the dining table the breakfast was already arranged by Haruko and Miwa-nee, they all waited for me to wake up so that we could eat together. Haruko was beaming with happiness which she rarely shows in front of others but I guess that's the effect of last night.

And Miwa-nee, though she still seems down, she wouldn't show that in front of Minoru.

After we're done eating breakfast, I told them our plans for today. When I mentioned the Amusement Park, Minoru's eyes lit up as he stood up and declared he also wanted to come with us.

Though Miwa-nee scolded him for being wily, Akane agreed to take him with us. It's supposed to be our date but since Akane agreed, I followed suit. Taking the boy with us to the Amusement Park to enjoy it as well will not only ease Miwa-nee but also please Akane.

She's really fond of Minoru that even if he somehow bullied her in that console game, she still kept playing with him.

By agreeing to take Minoru with us, Miwa-nee can finally relax for half a day.

Well, since our date wouldn't end in just the Amusement Park, Miwa-nee will pick up Minoru before we go to the theater and the hotel. The house will be left to Miwa-nee for the day. I told her to treat this as her day-off and we'll take care of Minoru.

It's great that I didn't make a date plan in which rides we will go to in order to enjoy the Amusement Park. Akane told me that we'll let Minoru decide what we will ride. Since he's still a kid, we wouldn't be able to get on any thrill rides but I guess that's for the best.

After finalizing everything, I had them prepare first since I still have something to do first.

It was to escort Haruko to the train station.

On the way, Haruko teased me about not telling her that we were going on a date. It seemed she planned to stay until the night before going home.

It's Saturday after all, and she already told her parents where she was, though it's a lie, they wouldn't worry about her not coming home early.

Well, it's already planned so I told her I'll spend more time with her on her next stay over.

Err.. like Akane and Yae, she also requested for a kiss before getting on. I anticipated that so I pulled her on a corner to give her what she wanted.

I escorted her up to the train platform and after seeing the train departs only then did I go back home

It was already 10 o'clock when we departed from home. Miwa-nee couldn't help but worry for Minoru, this will be the first time they will separate for half a day since she gave birth to him.

All this time, she was always with her son. Taking him with us was really a good decision. Not only will she have time to relax, but she will also have time to think about things.

I thanked Akane for that but she just shook her head as she happily took Minoru's right hand. Putting the boy in between us, we looked like a family. And when a passerby commented that word, Akane couldn't help but blush.

She imagined us in the future, with our son or daughter, walking like this together.

The Amusement Park is located in a business district a bit far from here, it will be a train ride that will last for an hour. It's Saturday so there are also others who have the same destination as us.

During the train ride, Minoru was too excited that he kept trying to run off somewhere. I thought of scolding him but Akane stopped me. Instead of scolding him, Akane told him a story that scared the wits out of the kid which made him cower in between us.

When the other passengers saw that, they couldn't help but smile at us then praised Akane. We're still young so they thought Minoru's my little brother and Akane, my girlfriend. They commented on how the girlfriend could handle the little brother better than his older brother. Those comments made Akane happy as she clung to me while patting Minoru's head.

After an hour, we finally got out of the station and soon the Amusement Park appeared before us.

After waiting in line for 15 minutes, we finally got our turn to buy the tickets and enter the park.

Just from the entrance, Minoru's eyes lit up as a number of mascots were performing for the children not far away from it.

Akane saw that and she urged me to come with them.

Err… her eyes also lit up upon seeing the mascots. That girl is still a child at heart. It has been a long time since we went here and if both of them can enjoy it then that's great.

I followed after them and watched the show.

Eh no, it's more like I watch over the two of them enjoying the show.

Watching them be like that was more enjoyable than any rides or mascots.

This was supposed to be our first date but with the addition of Minoru, I guess it became a family day.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 123: First Date(2)

By the time that Mascot show ended, Minoru was already hungry. Akane, like a mother, chided him as we went through waves of people to the food court.

Akane was also hungry so I guess we'll have an early lunch. Besides, it's already near 12 o'clock. We have just arrived and haven't ridden any amusement rides yet.

I thought she would soon be annoyed by Minoru but Akane was all smiles as she took care of him. There's a huge possibility that he's my son but without confirmation with Miwa-nee, I won't go there yet. Maybe she's seeing our likeness hence she could be patient with him and it's not like she's faking it.

I really like seeing her smile like that, even if this date didn't turn out that romantic for us, just seeing her enjoy the day was enough.

After eating our lunch, Minoru got his energy back as he led us. Yes, he's the one leading us on where he wanted to go. Since we couldn't just leave him alone, Akane and I followed him and rode the rides he wanted to.

Of course, only those rides which allowed children. Sometimes Akane or I will ride with him but oftentimes we will just watch him enjoy it with the other children in the park. Like a married couple watching their child enjoy our visit to this park, we took pictures that will serve as our memory for this day. 𝓝𝑜𝓋𝗲𝔩𝑢𝑆𝑏.𝐜𝒪𝚖

"Husband, thank you."

Akane suddenly muttered at my side.

I was holding her hand as we both watched Minoru play with the other kids, this time it's not a ride but an area where they could play, there were all sorts of different kinds of recreational equipment that were designed for children.

"Hmm? Why? I should be sorry, this is our date but we're both stuck looking out for Minoru."

Yeah, it's supposed to be romantic but this isn't that bad. That boy was already stuck in our house for a few days after coming here. A change of pace to unwind like this is good for him, and also for his mother.

"Don't say that, I really enjoy it, being here with you and looking out for him. When we have our own child in the future, I want us to be like this as well. Take him to places like this and watch him grow up."

There's a sparkle in Akane's eyes as she starts talking about our future child. She's genuinely wishing for it. Not with anyone else, but with me.

"Right. We'll do that. And we can go back here next time, just the two of us. I wanted to ride on some with you, you know?"

Especially those rides where she will surely cling to me. Even if she always does that whenever we're together, the experience of enjoying things together is different. We couldn't just fill our daily lives with erotic situations.

"I've always wanted to ride the Ferris Wheel with you, husband. With only the two of us."

Akane then looked towards the direction where the Ferris Wheel is. Looking over the city from up there, with only the two of us, of course, it's bound to be romantic. There were even some who will be taken by the situation and do something erotic inside it but that's something dangerous, you know? I wouldn't risk it if ever. Just enjoying the view with her and a little romantic moment will be enough.

"Huh? Shimizu-chan?"

Suddenly a man's voice called out to Akane, we both turned to the direction of the voice. There lies a guy not far from our age. He looks handsome with his attire and the way he carries himself. Like those cool guys often depicted in anime or movies. And by the looks he's giving Akane, I immediately determined that he's one of those guys aiming for her.

He's not alone though. There's a girl beside him and I think I saw her back in middle school, a senior. She's a looker but also a loner back then. But she's not considered an introvert, she just didn't want to associate herself to others, an antisocial, I guess?

Did she change?

"Hayami-senpai, Matsumoto-senpai."

Hayami-senpai referred to the girl and this guy is Matsumoto-senpai.

Well, his eyes were only focused on Akane and it seems he's treating it like I'm not here with Akane.

"What are you doing here?"

Matsumoto asked.

This guy, isn't it obvious? I know he purposely said that to irritate me but yeah, he doesn't know Akane that well.

"Senpai. Are you just blind or what? Can't you see this?"

Akane with an annoyed tone raised our hands that were clasped together.

I could see his eyebrows twitch as he finally decided to stop ignoring my presence.

"O-of course I could see that. Who is he?"

Not having a choice but to acknowledge it, eh? Well, let's see what this guy will do. To walk in like this. And what about Hayami-senpai who's with him? Is she okay with this?

"My husband, Ruki."

Akane answered in a matter-of-fact way. After that, she clung to me and showed him how close we are. This guy was just acting ignorant, of course. He thought he could try to hit on Akane and appeal to her with his looks.

"Huh? What husband?"

Confused, he alternately looked at us. I'm still not inclined to butt in since Akane could handle him by herself. She's really a different person in their eyes when it concerns me.

"I'm sure you're aware of the rumors about us. Everything about it is all true, so please, can you stop acting ignorant?"

Akane glared at him and that made him flinch but he still continued, maybe to regain his dignity? I don't know, these guys were often prideful and full of ego. They wouldn't rest until they got back at the other person.

"Matsumoto, isn't that enough? Are you here with me or not?"

Hayami-senpai finally interjected. And with the same annoyed tone as Akane.

"Ah. Tomo-chan. It's not like that. I saw a junior and thought of greeting her."

Now stuck between a rock and a hard place which he put himself through, Matsumoto tried explaining to her.

"Oh please. I went here with you because of how you begged. This is enough, I'm going home."

Did he beg? Err. Okay, that one's funny. For sure they're on a date, for him to suddenly lose focus, any girl will be annoyed by that.

"Ah. Hayami-senpai, do you still remember me?"

Now choosing this time to further bury this guy under, I approached Hayami-senpai.

I first looked at Akane and surely, she understood my intention. It's not like I'm putting this girl on my target list but she's interesting enough. The Hayami-senpai I remembered was cold enough that no one dared to approach her. If there were some, they were immediately shut down.

"You're often scurrying around with Fujimura at the library, of course, I remember you."

Right, Yae and I were often discussing things at the library and that's where she always stays. Yae also has a good relationship with her but yeah, you couldn't call it a friend. That girl was too antisocial. To think that she would accept this guy's invitation, it's either she's starting to change herself or she's kind of attracted to him. Either way, I guess she already had enough of him after this kind of pathetic show he presented.

"I see. I'm glad Hayami-senpai is this easy to talk to now. Please take care of Akane as a junior."

Flattering her then asking for a favor. Well, it's unnecessary, they're of different years so their encounters will be minimal.

"Huh? You're a bit cheeky, don't you think so?"

It's not just a bit if you ask my girls. But yeah, she really changed. If this was before, she will only take a glance before she ignores you.

"Err. What do you think, Akane?"

I turned to Akane to answer for me. Matsumoto was already speechless. Now he will be left without a date because of how stupid he is.

"Yes, you are. Nice to meet you Hayami-senpai."

Akane answered before greeting Hayami-senpai again. She only knew her by name so using this opportunity to get acquainted with her, Akane greeted her politely.

"I see. Nice to meet you too. You also need to put a better leash on your man or he will bite anyone."

If only she knew I've already bitten a lot, she'll be in for a surprise.

Hayami-senpai left after that, leaving the frozen Matsumoto where he's standing.

Soon enough, Minoru finished playing and went out of the playground. Likewise, we left the still frozen Matsumoto there.

He ruined his own date. Idiot.

That little episode was soon forgotten by us since it's not even noteworthy. Trying to hit on my Akane? Let's see. I'll deal with all of them when I visit her school.

Time passed and it's almost 5 o'clock, after playing for almost the whole time we're here, Minoru was already tired as I carried him on my back.

This trip to the Amusement Park was still enjoyable at least. We all walked to the train station and found Miwa-nee waiting there. After seeing the exhausted Minoru who already fell asleep with a smile on his face, she thanked us and told us to take care. We won't be going home tonight, after all.

After sending the mother and child off, we're finally alone again. And the next stop will be the theater before going to the hotel.

Taking her hand to mine, we strolled along the streets first and at times we ate some snacks on the food stalls Akane took interest in. Our day still hasn't ended so I wanted to make her feel more special. Tomorrow, my focus will be on another girl again but this time, I'm all hers.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 124: First Date (3)

The theater wasn't that crowded when we went in. That gave us a chance to choose for a better seat. Akane was too excited to see it that she literally pulled me into the front row.

Well, it's her day so I let myself be dragged by her. Throughout the movie, she will sometimes comment and then ask me what I think. Even if she was too focused on it, she still wanted me to enjoy the movie with her.

Because of that I didn't disappoint her and watched it in earnest.

The movie was about a girl and a guy who was separated by a distance of lightyears. Right. It's sci-fi. The girl somehow found the guy's holographic phone that was swept away by a black hole and was then sent to the girl's planet. From there they started talking to each other. At first, the girl was skeptical and thought the guy was joking about him being on a planet she didn't recognize. As to why they can understand each other, I guess that's one of the many plot holes of the movie, they just naturally talk to each other in the same language.

So the plot goes, a girl meets a boy. Then the development happened when that holographic phone was tracked by the boy's civilization that led to them sending an expedition force to retrieve lost technology to prevent leak.

The girl's planet was destroyed in the process but she was saved by the guy's instructions, leading to her drifting away in space in a pod, with her only companion being the guy on the other side of the holographic phone. He told her how to disable the tracker and that ended the pursuit for the lost technology.

Well, since his planet couldn't track it anymore, he also started searching blindly as to where the girl is.

He kept blaming himself that if not for him losing that, she could be living peacefully at her planet.

So along the way of searching for her, he already resolved himself to take responsibility for what he's done after making sure the girl will live on.

Though the movie ended in an open state when the guy finally found her drifting pod and saved it from getting pulled by a dying star's gravity, it gave the chance for a sequel.

And Akane's not liking that. She was complaining to me how the ending did not satisfy her. That's just the strategy of producers to make more money out of it eh. If the movie became popular then they would earn more from it.

Leaving the theater with the still upset Akane, I pulled her into an ice cream stall to get her favorite ice cream. And that somehow calmed her down. The sky was already dark so I decided to just take our dinner at the hotel. In the end, I couldn't find somewhere I could take her.

When I told her that, she just shook her head and said it's fine as long as I am with her. She's already satisfied with what we did for today. Dedicating my whole day for her, she's more than satisfied.

After finishing the ice cream, we went to the hotel I made reservations from. It's not a fancy hotel but it's a high class one, at least. Every guest they had wore formal suits or fashionable outfits, good thing we prepared for that.

After checking in to our room, I first observed it, this is the place we will be staying for the night and this night will be just about her, no other distractions.

In the end, we even forgot to take our dinner because once we entered the hotel room, we were immediately pulled in by the atmosphere around us. It didn't just end with one or two rounds, like savoring the moment we have alone like this, Akane became too wild in the bed that after everything, she just fell asleep on top of me.

This first date of ours might not be perfect but yeah, as long as I made her happy, that's enough for now. We can do it again next time and I will do better by then.

When the morning came and the time to checkout arrived, we met an unexpected person.

Err. Well, Akane didn't know her but I just met her this Friday at her club.

Donning a white gown that looks expensive at a glance, she really looks like a rich Ojou-sama and that gown really suits her, paired with her pearl accessories.

Itou Maaya.

"Ojou-sama, you're here."

One of the receptionists of the hotel went out of her station and greeted her.

Only now did I notice that every staff member was respectful to her. I didn't check who the owner of this Hotel was but I guess, just from their attitude, it's quite obvious now.

"Someone you know, husband? She doesn't look like she's one of your girls."

Akane curiously asked me, she looked at Itou and immediately determined that.

Well, there's really no reason to start with her.

"No. But she's the little sister of one of my targets."

I told Akane, if it's about this, I never once lied to her ever since realizing how special she is for me.

Itou, after nodding and dismissing the staff also looked around the lobby. We're checking out of the lhotel so she immediately saw me. I thought she wouldn't remember me but upon noticing my gaze was also on her, there's a mysterious glint in her eyes.

"You, Onoda. You're here…"

Eh what do you mean by I'm here?

When I couldn't answer her, her gaze then locked onto Akane. Err. If I compare the two, Akane will win just by the looks department. She doesn't need those expensive clothes to accentuate her beauty but yeah, if I imagine Akane also wearing that kind of dress, most men will fall under her feet.

"Itou. Yes, as you can see. We're checking out."

I answered her like normal without hiding the fact that I stayed at their hotel with a girl.

"Ruki, who is she?"

Akane acted like she hadn't asked me yet to get Itou's attention.

"A schoolmate, I'm her sister's acquaintance, so we somehow knew each other."

I answered Akane before turning to Itou. I couldn't read the expression on her face but I guess she's probably thinking about what we did at their hotel.

"Ah. I told Himeko about what you said, she told me to tell you to visit her in her club if you can."

These two sisters' circumstances is a mystery to me. Is it a family rivalry using the two? That's something out of a drama, right? But the concerns I picked from both of them for the other party were genuine.

After all this, I'll try and open up Himeko, to understand them and to help them if possible.

"Really?! Then tell me which club is it?"

Itou's eyes glimmered brightly. Looks like as long as it's about Himeko, she will be like this. She even forgot that I'm here with a girl and we had just checked out after staying the night here. She also didn't ask how I got acquainted with her sister.

But really, she didn't even know Himeko's club?

"Poem Appreciation Club. It's next to the Book Club."

"I don't know where that is, can you guide me tomorrow?"

This girl, it's only below your club's floor.

Could it be?

I looked at her and I could somehow read her expression now, she's showing anxiety and uneasiness. She knew where that was, but she needed someone to be there with her. She's afraid to meet her alone.

"Accept it, Ruki. She looks like she really needs your help."

Akane interjected, she's just watching our conversation and maybe observing Itou as well, I'm gonna ask her what she thinks later.

"Alright, should I go to the Game Club to pick you up?"

I'll also be attending my first official club activity at the Literature Club so… she will have to wait until it finishes.

"Yes please! And thank you, uhm, can you introduce us, Onoda?"

Err. Right, why didn't I think of introducing them to each other.

After I introduced them, they somehow hit it off together. Two beautiful girls like that, I guess, they have something in common that makes them feel comfortable with each other.

After 15 minutes, we finally left the hotel. Akane wore a smile like she just met a long time friend.

"What happened? You both became surprisingly close this fast."

"Ehehe. I also don't know but we could never run out of topics. It's like our minds were alike."

With her silly giggle, Akane told me everything she found out and what she thought about Maaya.

I didn't ask her about it but I guess she noticed my slight attraction to the girl. Akane is now trying to actively help me. 𝑛𝑶𝗏𝑬𝓵𝑈𝗌𝗯.𝗰𝒐𝓂

They both have the same situation in school, someone who keeps getting chased by the boys. Asking them out at every turn, so they somehow put up the facade that will make them harder to approach which lessened those occurrences. Akane used her friends as a shield and the rumors about us while Itou just acted aloof when in fact, her true nature is someone outgoing and very energetic. The one who cheered when she won that shitty board game was the real her.

I see that's why it's that easy for her to talk to me. I guess she thought I was harmless back then. I'm not the other 1st years who were there just because she's there. I also didn't look at her that much during my visit to their club.

Then along the way to the station, Akane continued relaying to me about everything. I thanked her and gave her another kiss which made her blush immediately.

Even if we already did more than just a kiss, Akane still gets flustered whenever I kiss her unexpectedly.

During our train ride, Akane recounted everything that we did and everything put on a smile on her lips. Our first date is a success. She loved it and well, I also enjoyed a whole day with her.

But yeah.

There's another appointment I have to go to today. Satsuki.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 125: Sunday Appointment(1)

I messaged Satsuki before going out of the house. It was to confirm where she is currently. She replied immediately and told me she's at the Gymnasium doing club practice.

Akane was still tired from last night so she went back to our room to take a nap. Miwa-nee, on the other hand, urged me to take a rest. She probably saw how I was always moving and with the number of girls who visited us, she thought I'm pushing myself.

When I heard her say that, I could feel her concern for me. Even with Minoru looking I hugged her right there and made up an excuse of I'm recharging my energy through hugging her.

Minoru, who was curious about what I did, followed my example to hug his mother. Because of that, Miwa-nee couldn't do anything but yield to the both of us.

A little moment with her like that somehow satisfied my longing for her. At least she's not rejecting me anymore, just that she's still not inclined to tell me her troubles with her husband. I guess I could only do something for her if her husband showed up one day.

During the train ride, I pulled up my phone and checked my messages. There were a lot, especially from the girls who I haven't met yet. Surely, they got the news about Sena and Otoha meeting me. They're all asking when will their turn be. I couldn't give a date for now but I told them soon I'll visit their school to see them and that satisfied most of them.

Before I left the train station, I messaged Satsuki again telling her I'm already near. She then replied telling me to just go straight to the Gymnasium and up to the audience stands.

Today will be the day she will tell me about their past. I told Sakuma I'll go to her house again today, is he imagining us together, right now? Or is he still occupied by the thoughts of her sister? Either of it is good.

"Why are you not in your uniform?"

That was Satsuki's first words when she saw me from the gate. She was in her club uniform, short sleeve sport shirt and a short that only reached to half of her thighs. Those exposed thighs of her paired with her outfit and a bit sweaty appearance is too sexy for my eyes 𝓝𝑜𝓋𝗲𝔩𝑢𝑆𝑏.𝐜𝒪𝚖

This girl. She told me to go straight to the Gymnasium but there she was, waiting for me at the school gate.

"It's not like I'm attending a club. I'm only here to see you."

I answered her as I closed the remaining distance to the school gate.

It's Sunday and there were only a few students passing by.

"There's your mouth spouting nonsense again. I just thought of getting some fresh air, I didn't specifically wait for you here."

She turned her gaze away but the moment she blushed and smiled was captured by me. She's not being honest again. She turned into a full-on tsundere now. Or is she just embarrassed to admit that she's waiting for me in public?

"Eh? I didn't say anything about you waiting for me here. Are you actually hinting me about that?"

Ah. Teasing Satsuki is always this enjoyable.

"Shut up. Idiot!"

Satsuki realized that what I said was right and that made her more flustered. She then acted like she would walk away but she stopped when she heard my next words.

"I missed you, you know? Will you just leave me here?"

"I told you to shut up. Will you stay there or follow me?"

I didn't answer and just walked behind to follow her. She might get violent if I continue teasing her here. There are more chances for it later, anyway.

Satsuki led me to the Gymnasium and using a side door, we went into their clubroom where they often discuss things after practice. Her seniors and the other members were still practicing, based on the sounds of dribbling travelling from inside the Gymnasium to here.

After closing the door, I swiftly pulled Satsuki into my embrace.

"You're not being honest again, Satsuki."

I whispered to her ears as she tried to squirm her way out of my arms. But all of it was futile as I held her firmly.

"It's you who told me not to show it publicly, idiot. But you still keep teasing me. Do you want to announce it to everyone?"

I did say that, but yeah. When I saw her there, I couldn't help but grow more fond of her. She brought me here for us to be alone but there's still the risk of her clubmates finishing their practice and finding us here.

"Err. I couldn't help but tease you knowing you went to the gate to wait for my arrival, and in that sexy club outfit no less"

Satisfied from the hug, I let go of her and once again revelled at her figure in that outfit. It's still too sexy for me that I might not be able to resist the temptation.

"Just admit you're this perverted. This is the normal outfit for practice, how did you even find this sexy?"

Satsuki even stretched the shirt down and that made her bra peeking out. That's what everyone wears but yeah, it looks really good on her, more so now that she stretched it down.

"It's sexier now, Satsuki. I can see your--"

Before I even finished my sentence, Satsuki already hit my head while blushing profusely, as she let go of her stretched shirt to let it go back to normal.

"You pervert! You really won't stop. I'm going back!"

Though she said she'll go back. Satsuki stayed at her position.

"I just really missed you, Satsuki. I'm already resisting myself to pounce on you."

I honestly told her and yeah, the effect of my words were always effective on her.

"Then just say that from the start, idiot. Hug me…"

Ah. This girl can also act cutely like this. Granting this wish of hers, I closed our distance again and took her into my arms. Her scent is something that always turned me on.

"Did you miss me too?"

I whispered into her ear before biting it lightly.

"Of course, idiot. You're always busy with someone else."

She totally ignored my light bite on her ears as she grumbled her complaint to me.

"Eh? You just have to tell me and I'll make time for you."

"No. Today is enough for me. Don't think of any other girl, the practice will end before lunch, wait for me."

Satsuki couldn't admit how jealous she was whenever I spent time with another girl. She's probably still thinking the same thing as always. With Sakuma still hanging around her, she couldn't openly display her affection to me.

"Alright. Let's eat together."

It's Sunday so there's less risk to eat out with her.

"Uhm. Okay. I'll go back to practice first, see yourself out."

A smile bloomed from her lips when she accepted my suggestion. I guess she's also looking forward to it.

"Wait. Satsuki."

I pulled her arm before she went out of the door. Taking her into my arms again, I went in to kiss her this time.

It's like she's expecting this, her arms reflexively circled around me as she responded to my kiss. We immediately used our tongue turning it into a passionate kiss for a good 3 minutes.

Satsuki didn't say anything when we separated from each other. She just stared at me with her face beet red from what we just did.

I really changed her to become like this with me. From our clumsy first kiss to this one where she always didn't want to lose out, if Sakuma knew, he'd really die from jealousy.

The thought of just stealing her at first turned to the thought of loving her that I'm already against of her still being in love with Sakuma.

It's only a matter of time before I completely replace him. When that happened, I'll take her home

"Satisfied? I have to go back there now, Ruki."

Though her words sound like it came from someone who just gave in to the temptation, Satsuki reluctantly let go of me.

"Alright. See you later. I'll watch the practice from upstairs."

I resisted myself to tease her to not make it hard for her. Her practice was still important. I really wanted to see her play the sports she loves.

I wonder. What will Satsuki want to do in the future? The probability of her to go on and be a pro basketball player is low. She would've gone to a specialized school if that's her dream. But there's also a possibility that she will be scouted during her third year if she performs well at that time.

After Satsuki went back to practice, I stealthily went out from the side room we entered from, before going to the stairs from the side where it would lead me up the Gymnasium where people could look down from above. There were other students also watching the basketball club, boys and girls alike. Usually, they're not allowing spectators during practice since that will distract them but today, they allowed it to show off the members who will play for the upcoming practice game.

Since there's also the practice of the Boys' Basketball Club, the crowd was divided to those who were watching the boys which mostly consisted of girls cheering for them and boys who were doing the same but for the sporty girls.

Err… There's even someone specifically cheering Satsuki's name.

And that voice is familiar.

Sakuma.

I see. Did he purposely come here knowing I will meet Satsuki? Looks like Satsuki hasn't seen him earlier. Did he just arrive?

Either way, I'll take Satsuki with me after their practice. Let's see what he will do.

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 126: Sunday Appointment (2)

I made sure not to show myself in front of Sakuma but I'm sure he's looking out whether I'll show up here or not.

Just to be sure, I messaged Satsuki that after their practice, I'll wait for her just outside that side door we entered from earlier.

She probably already noticed Sakuma from the audience, it's now on her whether she will show herself before him or go with me.

This might look like I'm testing her but yeah, I want to know just how much Sakuma weighs on her at this moment.

But first, let's watch her for now. They're having a practice game, the Starter team that will play first at the upcoming practice game against the Bench Team consisting of bench players.

Satsuki was among the bench players. Since there's still the third year who took up the Center Position, she will only move up to that position next year.

But since they're playing among their regulars, Satsuki will lead the Bench Team. She will face off against that third year.

The Boys' Basketball Club stopped their practice at the urging of their coach to watch the ongoing match of the Girls' Basketball Club that made all the eyes focus on their court.

Satsuki had a game face on as she stood next to the third year who's taller than her for a few centimetres in the middle of the court for the tip-off. With this kind of matchup, I wonder how she will fare?

Their coach and club advisor is surprisingly that discipline freak of a PE Teacher.

After checking that everyone's in position, she tossed the ball up high. Satsuki and the third year Center jumped for the tip-off.

With that as the start of the game, both of them gave their all since there were other spectators, they wanted to show off that even if they will not aim for the Interhigh, they're still a formidable team.

By the stroke of luck Satsuki touched the ball first and aimed it to her teammate, through that, her teammate whose position is a Shooting Guard drove forward under the basket, with a layup, they quickly got the first point of the game.

Sakuma shouted as if Satsuki's the one who got the ball in.

With a quick play like that as a start, the Starter Team got fired up, with an overhead pass, their point guard waited from the center of the court before driving it back to their goal. Satsuki was already in her position, with only the two of them. Satsuki tried to block it but the Point Guard of the opposing team passed it behind her where the Small Forward of their team was. With Satsuki still in the air, they immediately got back the 2 points the Bench Team made.

Satsuki didn't get it to her head, continuing the game from that, it became somewhat intense.

The Bench Team, not wanting to lose against the Starter Team, fought them neck and neck. Satsuki did her job as the Center well enough, but sadly the opposing team was more experienced.

The practice match for today will only cover until the 2nd quarter. At the 1st quarter, the Bench Team could still hold a 4-point deficit. But when the 2nd quarter started, it grew larger up to a 10-point deficit. They did their best, even Satsuki got a few blocks and most of the defensive rebounds but it's just proven that the Starter Team was still stronger.

Well, if they lose against their bench players then they should reconsider changing players for the Starter Team.

When the game ended, everyone clapped their hands to the showing of the Girls' Basketball Club. After organizing themselves, they all went back to the clubroom. 𝑛𝑂𝗏𝑒𝑙𝑈𝓈𝔅.𝗰𝑜𝑚

That time also became my cue to go out and wait for Satsuki there.

Sakuma was still at the audience stands. Maybe he will also wait for her. I don't know. I made sure not to be noticed by him so I can take Satsuki away from here but yeah, plans will always go awry.

"Onoda?"

Sakuma called out to me as I was about to turn around and leave for the side door.

"Yo. You're also here. Did their practice end?"

I acted like I just arrived, it doesn't matter if he will buy that or not.

"Yes. She played against the starting team and man, if you saw her, you'll be amazed."

Like a fanboy, Sakuma retold what happened on the court. And of course, he only highlighted Satsuki's feats.

"Really? Too bad I just arrived. Looks like I was late. By the way, why are you here?"

"I heard they'll be having a practice match so I came to watch. Ah. We also have practice after this. I'll leave it to you to ask her, Onoda."

That's a bit unbelievable, he purposely comes here to wait here for me and see if I will really show up. What's going on in your mind, Sakuma? In any case, I'll keep confusing you.

"Alright. About her sister, right?"

"Yes. See you then."

Surprisingly he didn't ask me about Satsuki but this is possibly him just trying to feel me out. I already told him I'll meet her again so that's a given, he's here trying to figure out what I really think about Satsuki. But since I'm not giving him any signs, he can't do anything.

"See you. Work hard on your practice."

I saw him go out and went towards the soccer field where their practice will occur, I then went to the side where I told her I would wait.

20 minutes later, Satsuki came out, fresh from the shower. She's now wearing her uniform and her previous practice outfit was on a small pouch she's carrying. Her hair was still wet and her face was a bit flushed. I already see her once like this, back in that bathroom of theirs.

"Did you wait long?"

Satsuki asked when she saw me leaning on the wall.

"You played really well, Satsuki."

I shook my head and praised her play earlier.

"But we still lost."

She turned a bit downcast for a moment before it returned to normal.

"You know it's not a matter of winning or losing in that game, that's the Starter Team. You held yourself well against the third year Center. She'll surely be happy to pass the baton on you."

Looks like this girl has the habit of turning downcast whenever she loses a game. But this simple encouragement could easily let her recover from it.

"Thank you, Ruki. You watched everything, right?"

"Of course. How can I miss your game? You're really a great player. If you need encouragement, I'm always here, okay?"

She nodded and she took a step to close our distance. She then took the initiative to hold and kiss me. Her tongue immediately turned aggressive as it searched for mine.

From there she pushed me back to the wall I was leaning to as our tongue and lips continued to entangle each other.

Only after she was satisfied did she separate from me.

"That was delicious, Satsuki. You don't mind others seeing us now?"

I asked her when she separated from me. That was an intense kiss that I wanted to do it again. Her face was beet red from it.

"No one's looking anyway, it's not like you hate it."

She answered while licking her lips. And that action of her immediately invokes my desire to have her.

"I love it, of course. It's my Satsuki taking the initiative to kiss me."

When she heard the way I called her mine, she immediately hit me on my shoulder.

"Idiot, don't call me like that."

Satsuki said in a small voice but it's really clear that it put a smile on her lips. That didn't escape my eyes.

"Why? It's the truth, you're mine Satsuki."

Another chance for teasing her, there's no way I will miss this.

"Ugh. Suit yourself, so where will we go?"

Satsuki immediately gave up when she took notice that I'm starting to get right on teasing her. Diverting our conversation to another topic.

"You won't ask about Sakuma?"

I curiously asked her. Normally she would always mention that guy. It's not like I wanted to hear her talking about him, I was just not used to it.

"I know that some guy here will be jealous if I mentioned him. He's not here so it's fine not to talk about him."

With a teasing smile on her lips, Satsuki turned to me.

"You know you're making me fall deeper in love with you."

She thought that would make me flustered but it only evoked my feelings for her and in turn, it's her who got flustered by my words.

"Stop spouting that cheesy nonsense, idiot."

She then made a gesture as if she's pushing me away from her.

"I'll wait for the day when you can say that to me too."

I stopped her flailing around as I took her hand on mine and I led her to a route where we wouldn't pass by the soccer field. Sakuma is suspicious, yes, but it's still not the time to reveal everything to him. Not until he completely turned his affection to her sister and Satsuki completely fell for me.

Satsuki didn't reject it and somehow timidly followed me while our hands were linked together. Since it's Sunday, there's only a few handful students nearby and most of them are minding their own businesses. That made us traverse the way from the Gymnasium to the school gate without any hindrances.

Well, if someone we knew apart from Sakuma saw us, it will spark for another rumor. But at this point, I don't care about any other rumor. There's already a lot about me and they will confuse it soon when at every rumor, there's a different girl linked with me.

I will only admit the rumor about Nami though to not complicate things for all of us.

"Where do you want to eat? Or is there something you want to eat?"

Since we're eating out together, I opted to let her choose her preference.

"Cake. I'm craving for sweets."

Eh? Will that be okay for lunch?

"You'll get fat, you know?"

"Didn't you tell me it all goes down here?"

She pointed on her juicy thighs. Right. I told her that when we were bringing Sakuma to the infirmary before.

"Ah then divert some of it on your butt and breasts."

Repeating my words from back then, it made her reflexively cover it.

"You pervert, do you like them big?"

She then silently asked, confirming if it was my preference.

"Not really, I just thought it will make you sexier."

And that's the real reason. I don't really care if it's big or small. As long as it's from the girls I like.

"As I thought, this perverted guy. Hurry and take me to a cake shop!"

Flustered again. Satsuki raised her voice and hit me on my shoulder once more.

"Alright. You don't have to hit me again, right?"

"Idiot."

I took her hand again as we strolled towards the nearby cake shop. There's a lot of time to spend with her today. I'll thoroughly satisfy her and in turn, learn everything about their past and her sister.

Chapter 127: Cake Shop Date

"What do you want?"

Satsuki asked as she browsed on which cake she will choose, we're currently at a Cake Shop which she just admitted she frequented these past few days.

The owner already knew her by face and treated her as a regular.

"Your boyfriend will probably like this."

The owner then pointed to a triple chocolate roll. Being called as her boyfriend, I guess it's kind of a weird feeling.

"He's not my boyfriend, owner."

Satsuki flatly rejected but the tone of her voice wasn't that of someone rejecting.

"Yet?"

The owner added as her gaze turned to our hands that were still linked together.

"She's just too shy, owner. I'll take that one you recommended."

I interjected before Satsuki could retort. She then glared at me and tightened her hold on my hand as if she wanted to crush it. But too bad, her grip wasn't strong enough to do it.

"I see. You two look good together. Take care of her, okay? I won't give you a discount if someday she comes here feeling down because of you."

The owner carefully placed the cake on a platter while saying all of that to me. Satsuki is somewhat popular among Cake Shop owners, eh? I remember that owner near her place.

"She'll surely punch me until I fall unconscious if I do that. Right, Satsuki?"

Satsuki's glare was already stabbing into me. More teasing will probably result in me dropping down to the ground. Let's tease her moderately.

"Do you want me to punch you right now? Give me that and pick another one."

And like I thought, Satsuki took the plate and went to a nearby table without waiting for me.

"Don't worry, there's more of that. You could share that first while I make another one."

The owner laughed at how Satsuki behaved before she went back to make more of the same cake or maybe she just wanted to watch a good show from us even though there's already a spare she could get any time.

Either way, the way she does things is to my liking. I followed Satsuki and sat next to her.

"What? Where's yours?"

"The owner said we could share that for now while she makes another set."

I even pointed to the owner and she waved while smiling towards Satsuki.

"You're colluding together…"

"How could I do that? This girl. You can eat it, I'll just watch you from here."

"Idiot. You told me we'll eat together."

"Then feed me?"

"Ugh… Why do I always end up being taken advantage of by you?"

"You must be imagining things."

After giving in to our situation where we had to share that slice of cake, I had a somewhat satisfying time with Satsuki. When we finished it, the owner immediately brought two more slices, one of which was a freebie from her who was satisfied watching us.

Since there are two plates, Satsuki stopped feeding me through her fork and scurried away from me. I stood up to take the latte we ordered. The owner even teased me that I should push Satsuki further. That way, she will eventually give in to me.

She didn't know that Satsuki was just acting like a tsundere. She might act las if she didn't like doing it but in truth, there's a hint of a smile on her lips whenever she fed me a piece.

"Will we go to your house?"

I asked her after putting down her latte and sitting in front of her.

"My family is still there so we have to wait for a bit."

Satsuki answered as she stirred her latte, erasing the heart decoration the owner made on it.

"What if I told you I want to meet them?"

Not necessarily her whole family, maybe only her sister? But yeah, she's not there so it's only her parents and little brother.

"Not now, idiot. How will I introduce you? And they will surely not allow me to be alone with you."

Not now eh? Then it's possible in the future. She could just introduce me as her boyfriend err but it would conflict with Nami.

Let's think about it when the time comes.

"Right. I still want to be alone with you."

"You're thinking something perverted again."

And with those words of mine, Satsuki glared once again. This girl is really so fun to tease and the way she reacts is something I am fond of.

"Well, being alone with my Satsuki is something I always look forward to."

I sipped the latte in front of me and smiled teasingly at her. Satsuki was once again flustered from that.

"Ugh. This pervert. What should I do with you?"

Giving up on retorting, Satsuki said that before downing the last piece of cake in front of her.

"For a start, you can ask me anything. I find it unfair that I'm the only one asking about you."

Right. After Satsuki accepted that there could be many girls aside from her, she never asked me anything again. It should be fine but I already love her, I want her to know more about me. Even if that might change her views, at least I could be honest with her.

"Anything? Really?"

Satsuki asked as she started drinking her latte.

"Yes. While we're here, ask me anything you can think of."

The shop was devoid of customers aside from the two of us. It's Sunday and the students who normally come here are nowhere to be found.

"Then Ruki, what will you do if Sakuma finds out about us?"

She saw Sakuma earlier, for her question to start off like this...

"What will I do? I'll admit it to him, that I made you mine because I fell for you."

There's no point lying to him if he really found out.

"He'll surely be angry at us."

Who wouldn't? I told him I would help them but in the end, I took her as mine.

"There's no doubt that will happen. But I'm prepared to face him, I can't just give up on you."

He could be angry all he wants but I'll never give up on Satsuki.

"Why can't you? You have other girls, there are Rindou, Andou and all the other girls still unknown to me, right?"

Ah. I see, she's gauging her worth on me. Satsuki already finished her latte. Her eyes were intently staring at me, waiting for my answer.

"They are they and you are you. I know this is not normal. To love multiple girls. This is already how I am, Satsuki."

They're all different from each other. Even if I have more, they're all important to me. 𝓝𝒐𝒱𝗲𝒍𝓊𝚜𝗯.𝒸𝔬𝑚

"Won't I just be set aside if I also fall for you? If it's with Sakuma, I'll be his only one…"

She still wanted the idea of being the only one. Well, any girl will.

"True, you can be his only one..."

I admitted that what she's thinking was right. I couldn't come up for any reason that could beat that. Or it's just, there's no point beating that. I wouldn't change to choose only one.

"You won't make any reason why it will be better with you?"

"No, because that point you just said is something I cannot beat with any reason I can think of."

I sighed and broke gazes with her. I couldn't look her in the eye. Does this mean I already cut off my chance with her?

"It's unusual to see you this dispirited, Ruki."

Saying that in a low voice, Satsuki reached her hand to my chin and raised it up to have me look at her again.

"I told you I will be honest. Of course, I'll feel down when that point you just said might be the cause of you not choosing me."

"Idiot, I'm here with you. Don't you think I already finished choosing?"

Dropping those words to me. I got a realization. Satsuki. She chose me. Right. Sakuma showed up for her earlier. Just by how much he cheered for her, he's already admitting his feelings for her. At that point, she could just forget about our appointment and go to him.

"Does that mean?…"

"Don't make me say it, idiot."

She let go of my chin and turned her gaze away but that hint of red on her face was apparent.

"I want to hear it."

Whispering those words to her, I urged her to admit it in front of me. I might be pushing her again but I really want to hear her say it.

"Not here."

She shook her head. She's probably too shy to admit it.

"Then just your reason."

I think I got over excited from hearing that she had chosen me over him. I just hope this wouldn't make her uncomfortable.

"This persistent guy. I also don't know. Maybe it's because of how different you are from him. At times you'll be a pervert but most times you'll be as considerate as if you're afraid I will break."

Satsuki gave up before my persistence and said all that under one breath.

"Can I kiss you, Satsuki?"

Overjoyed, I couldn't contain myself anymore.

"What?! I told you. Not here."

Faced with my sudden question, Satsuki slightly raised her voice.

"There's only the owner and she's not looking."

I looked back and saw the owner busily making more cakes inside. There's a window in which she could see but she's too absorbed in what she's doing.

"Haa. Should I change my choice?"

Satsuki sighed as she pushed the plate and cup away, freeing her side of the table.

"You already admitted it and look how happy you made me."

Showing her a smile, I pointed at my face.

"Does being happy equals to the amount of pervertedness you have?"

Satsuki smirked and her eyebrows raised as she asked me that.

"Maybe?"

Answering like that, I changed seats and sat next to her again. The window is tinted anyway so it will be hard for those outside to see.

I closed the distance between our faces and took her lips into a kiss.

Satsuki closed her eyes at first but she soon opened it again which made our eyes locked gazes. Not minding the owner who could see us making out at this moment. I savor this moment with Satsuki. Circling my arms to her back, I pulled her closer to me. Satsuki was also taken in the situation that her arms were circled behind me as it rested on my shoulder.

From a simple kiss, we soon used our tongues. The taste of latte and the cake we just ate were mixed with the taste of our saliva but that detail wasn't enough to make us stop.

She just admitted that she might also be in love with me now. But yeah, it didn't mean Sakuma was already out of the picture. The way she mentioned his name earlier had some sort of longing.

"I really want to replace him inside that heart of yours."

I whispered to her when we separated after satisfying ourselves from that kiss.

"I chose you so work hard on that."

I thought Satsuki would retort to those words but she encouraged me instead. Sakuma is still there but even so, Satsuki is already looking at me. I'm already at the same position as him

It's possible to love multiple people, just look at me as an example. But even so, I selfishly wanted to be the only one in their hearts. Is it wrong? Of course, it is. I'm well aware of that.

Chapter 128: House Visit Again

"Next station in 5 minutes. Press the button if you will get down."

The announcement from the Bus Driver woke me up from watching Satsuki's current sleeping face resting on my shoulder.

After the Cake Shop and determining that her family already went out, we rode the bus to their house. On the way, Satsuki fell asleep on my shoulder. The practice game took a toll on her and knowing I'm next to her, she thought of resting her eyes but instead, she drifted to sleep. It's only a short ride from the station near the cake shop to here. It's not even 15 minutes. For her to fall asleep, it just showed how tired she was. Maybe not only from practice but also from thinking about our situation. Sakuma included.

The next station is the one near their house so when I heard that announcement, I woke her up.

"We're almost here."

I whispered to her and that made her look out of the window. Seeing the familiar neighborhood, she nodded and fixed her posture.

After we disembarked she's still a bit sleepy so I became the one to lead her to her house. There were a few of their neighbors outside so when they saw us, they immediately teased Satsuki about bringing a boy home.

Looks like my visit this time will be known by her family when they get back.

"They saw us…"

Satsuki muttered as soon as we entered through their front door.

"Just make up a reason?"

"Idiot. They already saw us holding hands."

And even now, our hands were locked to each other, even with what happened, neither of us wants to let go.

"Then. There's no other choice but for me to be introduced as your boyfriend."

I closed our distance and circled my free hand to hug her.

"Stop dreaming, idiot."

Using her free hand, she smacked my head and pushed me away.

"Why? Either way, your parents will ask you if they heard about this from your neighbors."

I asked her as we went to their living room.

"I can't have one yet."

Eh? What's this? Then why do you want Sakuma to confess to you?

"What do you mean? You asked me to have Sakuma confess to you, didn't you want to date him?"

She pointed to the sofa from before and gestured for me to sit there and this time, we finally released our hands.

Satsuki then dropped her bag before sitting next to me.

"If it's Sakuma then it's fine but if it's another guy they'll only be meeting for the first time, they'll be against it."

That reasoning, why is it like that?

"You came here to know about our past, right? It's because of that."

When she saw me confused, Satsuki mentioned the reason why I am here.

Their past. The reason why she fell deeply in love with him and the reason why Sakuma couldn't make up his mind.

"I see. Then let me hear about it. So I can find a way to be accepted by them, if ever."

But will they really accept that Satsuki will be just one of the many girls I have? I don't know and I don't think she will want me to tell them that.

"You're really persistent, Ruki."

"You already know why I'm like this, Satsuki."

I whispered to her ear as I moved closer to her. I could see how she shivered from it when I blew on her ear.

"Ugh. You're going to tease me again."

"Why? I just love teasing my Satsuki."

"So will you just keep teasing me or hear about it? Choose."

"Can I choose both?"

"Idiot. No."

"Then, let me tease you for now."

After saying that, I turned towards her and pushed her down the sofa. Our position reverted back to when I first kissed her here in this very room, on this same sofa.

Looking at her reddened face, I couldn't resist myself to kiss her. At first, Satsuki tried to resist it but when I didn't let go, she eventually succumbed to my kiss.

From the somewhat awkward atmosphere around us, it quickly turned this passionate. There are no more eyes who could see us so the restraint we had placed was already released. My hand immediately went to work, exploring her body as our tongues entangled each other.

"Hey, save it for now. Hear me out first."

After that passionate kiss, Satsuki stopped me when I was about to undress her.

"Sorry. I got carried away."

Pulling myself up and releasing her. I couldn't help but show my disappointment and that didn't escape her eyes.

"Don't be disappointed, pervert. There will be time for that. But let's get to the main reason why you are here first."

Her second sentence lifted my spirits up and like an obedient dog, I nodded as I started behaving myself.

Satsuki somehow found that funny. She giggled as she placed herself on my lap, with her body facing me.

I looked up to gaze at her but her lips dropped to mine on her own initiative. Her aggressive nature took over her as she sucked on my lips and tongue before biting it lightly. Only when she was fully satisfied did she release me.

"Satisfied?"

I tried teasing her but I was only met with her lustful face nodding at me. She just told me that we should get to the main reason but it's her who couldn't restrain herself. But yeah, let's go along with what she wanted for now. We have plenty of time.

Satsuki never left that position as she started talking about their past.

It also started on the day Sakuma started living here.

In Satsuki's perspective. She found him a bit irritating at first. But when he kept stopping her to beat up those who bullied her or teased her about her height. She started to understand what it was he was trying to do.

And soon, she just enjoyed beating Sakuma up and ignored those who tried to tease or bully her. She admitted that at that time, she's slowly seeing him as someone reliable. She's starting to like him by then.

When she arrived at the point where the incident happened, Satsuki paused for a moment. Her face is somewhat complicated as if she didn't want to remember that moment.

But then, before she could start at that important part, we heard someone knocking at her door.

Satsuki became alerted as she stood up from me and fixed her slightly disheveled appearance. She then told me to go upstairs and wait in her room.

I didn't make it difficult for her so I followed what she said and started making my way to the stairs while Satsuki went to answer the door.

"Sakuma?!"

Before I could set my foot on the first step, I heard Satsuki exclaim.

Eh? Sakuma? Did that guy come here? Why? I thought he couldn't set his foot towards here. And isn't he still in his practice?

"My mother told me to bring this here."

Though the volume was a bit low, I could still hear their voices from where I am.

"I see. Tell her I said thanks."

I don't know what it is he brought but it might be another basket of fruits. For him to make a reason like this to come here. I guess he's really wary that I'm here with her. Alone.

"I thought there's no one here, your dad's car wasn't here eh. Did they go out?"

What? Is this really Sakuma? Why is he somehow different today?

"Yes. They did. So. What brings you here after all these years of avoiding our house?"

Satsuki also found it unusual for him to suddenly show up after years of refusing to go here. She probably already knew the reason. It's because of me.

"Can I go in?"

He didn't answer her question, instead, he asked permission to go inside.

"Huh? What for?"

That guy. What is he thinking?

"Onoda is in there, right?"

Now he specifically mentioned me. Of course, I'm here, I even told you I'll come and meet her.

"Yes. Want to talk to him? I can call him down."

Satsuki also didn't deny that I'm here. Well, I also told her about me mentioning my visit today to Sakuma.

"Down? Where is he?"

"At my room."

Err. I'm still at the stairs eavesdropping on you.

"You let him inside your room…"

His tone sounds like someone who couldn't believe Satsuki will let me in her room.

"What's wrong with that? And why do you care?"

Satsuki's voice was also starting to carry a hint of irritation. Maybe it's because of his sudden appearance here or because I was here and she was stuck between the two of us. She still loves him, yes but they haven't even talked properly for how long? 𝓝𝒐𝒱𝗲𝒍𝓊𝚜𝗯.𝒸𝔬𝑚

"Maemura, What is he to you? Did he do something to you"

He probably thought I won't hear him so his suspicions were all being brought out by him. He's really wary of me being this close to Satsuki.

"Huh? What are you talking about? That's none of your business, idiot. Go back now. I'll be closing the door."

I could feel Satsuki was slowly getting annoyed at his questions. Maybe because of his interrogative tone or because she somehow felt guilty of what we did and that she couldn't tell him what I am to her.

"Wait!"

Sakuma raised his voice and the sound of some struggle happening was heard from where they are.

At this point, I decided to show myself in front of him to calm things down. It's not right to leave this all to Satsuki.

Should I try to quell his suspicion or should I come clean about my relationship with Satsuki? Either way, I need to calm him down.

"Sakuma? I heard raised voices from upstairs and I thought something was happening here. What's wrong?"

I saw Satsuki trying to close the door, the basket of fruits he brought was already on the floor while Sakuma was trying hard to stop the door from closing.

When I showed up, they both loosened up and Satsuki picked up the basket before going in, leaving me alone with Sakuma.

"You handle that idiot. I'm going in."

Leaving those words, Satsuki disappeared into the living room. Maybe she will also eavesdrop but I guess it's fine.

Sakuma was standing there as he watched our interaction towards each other. It's just a normal interaction so I don't think he could pick up something from that so I went to him and asked.

"What's wrong? I told you I'll come here. By the way, how's practice?"

I started with that and Sakuma only stood there. Staring at me.

I don't know what's going on inside his head. Did he finally break? In any case, for him to show up here is really something I didn't expect, I tried to confuse him with her sister but that's probably not enough. With that inquisitive tone of his, if not for considering Satsuki's feelings, I would've already shown him and confirmed that his suspicions were all correct.
