Chapter 9

During a working day at the pastry shop, Fuutarou was doing his best to take the orders and bring them to the customers while Nino did the same to bake delicious cakes and pastries. While doing so, the social butterfly had a happy smile on her face, blushing everytime she glanced at the boy.

In fact, ever since they got "married" in his house, her already strong feelings for him skyrocketed more and there wasn't any day she wasn't clinging on him or looking at him. She also had started to consider herself as his real wife, so not just as his girlfriend anymore, and she got also more protective of him.

'Fuu-kun is doing his best everyday to help me, his family and my sisters, so I won't forgive anyone that mocks his efforts. Especially that jerk of Takeda.', she thought, with her eyes getting darker at remembering how the sparkles guy dared to insult her and Fuutarou's love. They loved each other deeply and they were destined to be together forever, so he had no right to talk bad about their relationship. At all.

But while she was thinking about that, a sudden loud sound coming from the shop's hall caught her attention. So she went to see what happened, only to gasp out of horror; her boyfriend fell on the floor and seemed to be sick, with everyone around him shocked and worried for him.

The girl left immediatey the kitchen to go to Fuutarou. "Fuu-kun, what's wrong?!", she asked him, helping him to sit down.

"S-sorry, I don't feel very good. I feel like my head is spinning.", he said, sweating and touching his head.

Touching his forehead, Nino was scared when she felt that it was too hot. "You have a fever! We must go home immediately before it gets worse!", she said, starting to cry.

"Fuutarou-kun, I can't forgive myself if I let my employees work while they're sick. Go home with your girlfriend and rest well. Don't worry, I won't pay you less because of some missed work hours.", told him the shop's owner, smiling.

"I'm sorry and thank you, Boss.", said the golden eyes boy while going with Nino to change their work uniforms in the lockers room. After that and greeting every coworker and every customer, who wished him a fast recover, he took a taxi with Nino to go home.

She made him rest his head on her lap, caressing his head and looking at him with a worried and teary expression. As she feared, studying too much to keep his grades high, tutoring her and her sisters and working as well took a huge toll on him and he got sick as consequence.

She felt at fault for not making sure that he was fine, starting to cry more in silence. But as if he felt her sadness, the young man squeezed her other gently to comfort her, making her blush and smile.

'Even when you're sick you don't stop caring for me…I love you so much, Fuu-kun.', she thought, intertwining her fingers with his while still caressing his head. They were really made for each other, so there was no way they would get separated.

After some minutes, the taxi reached Fuutarou's address, so Nino paid the driver and thanked him before helping her beloved "husband" to walk toward his house's door. "Huh? Are you two back-Onii-chan?!", asked Raiha, who appeared from outside of the kitchen and got worried immediately when she saw her brother's state.

"Raiha-chan, help me to accompany him to our room, please." told her the social butterfly, still crying. Nodding, the little girl helped her to bring the boy to the bedroom, where he laid on his futon and got a wet towel on his forehead to cool down the fever.

"I-I'm sorry, I didn't notice he was ill and he collapsed during work.", said Nino, crying.

"It's not your fault. Onii-chan wouldn't like that you blamed yourself, so don't.", assured Raiha, smiling sadly.

"He always gave his best in his studies ever since Mom died, arriving to overexert himself for our family. But now, he's doing it because he doesn't want to lose you, Nino-san.", she said then, causing the second oldest quint to smile despite still crying.

"I will go to make some good curry to help Onii-chan to get better now. Look after him, please."

Following those words, the little girl left the bedroom after she got a nod from Nino, who looked at her Fuu-kun with teary eyes. Suddenly, his eyes started to open up and met with her blue ones.

"N-Nino, are we in my house?"

"Yes, we took a taxi and I helped together with Raiha-chan to carry you towards here. How do you feel?"

"The fever is still high, so not good at all. I'm sorry for making you worry like this.", he replied, reaching her face with his right hand to clean off her tears.

"You worry so much more for me than for yourself…I'm really glad that we got "married"."

"I didn't want to see you sad after what your father and Takeda said. I want to make you always smile."

Blushing and smiling, the girl got inside his futon and clung onto him. "Really, you make me love you more and more everyday. I will help you to get warm to feel better.", she told him, kissing his cheek.

"Thank you, Nino.", he said, smiling too and closing his eyes.

'It's because I love you so much that I won't forgive anybody that hurts you. You got sick because Papa and Takeda want to make you stop tutoring me and my sisters and dump me, so I will make sure that Takeda renounces to steal your job.', she thought, with her eyes getting darker and planning how to get rid of the sparkles guy.

She hated him ever since he insulted her love for her Fuu-kun, so he had to pay. And it was going to happen very soon.

The following morning, after making dinner for her husband and cuddling with him the evening before, Nino made him breakfast and suggested him to stay at home. She knew that he didn't want to look like a slacker, but his health was very important and he had already done more than his best as student.

"Don't worry, I will study with my sisters later at the library. So you will be proud of us.", she told him, giving him a kiss on the forehead.

"Fine, I will stay at home. See you.", he said, closing his eyes to go back to sleep.

The social butterfly giggled and greeted Raiha and Isanari before leaving the apartment, waving her hand to the neighbors meanwhile. Fuutarou's neighborhood was aware of the fact that his girlfriend was living with him and his family, so they knew Nino and were glad for the boy to have such a beautiful and caring girlfriend.

Being seen as her Fuu-kun's girlfriend by everyone filled the girl with huge happiness, but the fact that her father still wanted to separate her from her love made her both angry and sad. Though, her anger was mainly directed towards Takeda, who was going to pay for speaking ill of her and Fuutarou's relationship. And for that, she had something of very helpful in her bag to use later.

When she entered in Asahiyama's courtyard, some students noticed that she wasn't together with the top student as usual and asked themselves where he was. Meanwhile, Nino saw her sisters and went to greet them, telling them with a sad expression what happened to their tutor.

Knowing that he got sick because of overexertion and because he didn't want to stop teaching them made them very sad and worried, but they assured Nino that he would recover quickly and that they would give their best to achieve high grades. The girl smiled and thanked them wholeheartedly, entering inside the building before going to her class with Miku.

Once there, her attention was focused solely on the lesson, as she made sure to take a lot of notes like her boyfriend taught her. Her friends were stunned by her behavior, guessing that it was due to being Fuutarou's girlfriend that changed her. Even if in reality, after their "wedding", she wasn't just his girlfriend anymore.

'She loves Fuutarou so much that she doesn't want to make his efforts in teaching us to go in vain. If only Dad stopped trying to separate them, everything would be better.', thought Miku, looking at her sister with a melancholic expression. She and the other quints were aware of how much Nino loved the boy, so they just wanted Maruo to accept their relationship. They also didn't want to be taught by another person that wasn't the young Uesugi, as they liked studying together with him. And it was especially Nino that didn't want another tutor at all.

When the first half of lessons finished, every student left their classrooms to have lunch at the canteen or outside. The quints went to the first place to eat all together and chat, with Itsuki savoring the food in full delight.

Still, their attention got caught by the sight of Takeda having lunch with various girls, smiling and saying things like he was going to be the top student. Obviously, the quints didn't like hearing that, but Nino was the one that glared at him with dark blue eyes again.

'How dare you…Fuu-kun is the only top student in this school, you jerk! But you will get what you deserve now.', she thought, still glaring daggers at him. None of her sisters and the other students noticed her expression, but suddenly, she got up from the table and told her sisters that she was going to buy herself a juice from the vending machine.

During that, she walked near Takeda's table, hitting "accidentally" a girl next to him that hit his glass of water next to him that spilled on his sleeve. "Hey, be more careful!", complained the girl, frowning at Nino.

"Ah, sorry hehe. It looks like I made your glass of water fall. Since I'm going to buy a juice, I will buy a drink for you to apologize properly.", said the social butterfly, with Takeda sighing in relief. He was scared when he saw her walking near his table, but she seemed to not be angry anymore compared to when he and Maruo interrupted Fuutarou's attention.

So he smiled and nodded to her, who went to the vending machine and bought a strawberry juice and another glass of water for the boy. Though, smiling and without being observed, she put something in his drink before going back to his table.

"Here's your glass of water. Sorry again for earlier and have a nice lunch with your girlfriends, casanova.", she told him while putting the glass on table, causing the girls to blush or frown at her in embarassment. Takeda blushed too, thanking her anyways and drinking the water.

"I thought you were still angry with that guy.", said Ichika to Nino when the social butterfly returned to their table.

"I was angry with him when he insulted my and Fuu-kun's love for each other, but I forgave him.", she said, eating some noodles.

"That's good. I just hope he doesn't try to take Uesugi-kun's role again."

"Don't worry, Itsuki. I think he understood that he's not suited for that. After all, no one can teach better than my darling.", said Nino, blushing and smiling while her sisters giggled. Even when he boyfriend was sick and stayed at home, she wouldn't stop mentioning him happily during a conversation or worrying about him. As if she was obsessed with him.

They, just like the rest of the people inside the cafeteria, didn't see what she put inside Takeda's drink, so they believed that she wasn't at the odds with him anymore. But whatever she out inside his glass would create problems for him later.

Finishing to have lunch with his fangirls, the sparkles guy returned to his own class, where a science test awaited him and his classmates. With a perpetual smile, he started to take said test confidently at first, but suddenly, he felt like his eyes were getting tired.

'Huh? Why I feel so-', he thought before falling asleep, shocking the teacher and his classmates. Noticing that he was sleeping and that he wouldn't wake up, the teacher guessed that the boy was probably too tired and simply took his test, albeit most of the questions on it weren't answered.

Inside Nino's classroom on the other hand, the butterfly ribbons quint was following the English lesson quietly and drawing her boyfriend's face on her notebook with hearts around too. 'I'm sure that he fell asleep during his lesson. That's what you deserve for daring to insult my and my darling's love story, you bastard.', she thought angrily.

If Takeda's grades got lower, Maruo wouldn't consider him unable to take Fuutarou's job as the quints' tutor. Even if in reality, Nino would not allow anyone to take her husband's role; the only one who could teach her and her sisters was exclusively her Fuu-kun. And for coincidence, looking outside of the corridor, she saw that a teacher was accompanying a sleeping Takeda to the nursery, and the sight made her smile. Putting a sleeping pill inside his glass worked greatly.

Ever since she and Fuutarou started to get along when he told her about his past and they fell in love with each other, she hated herself for having drugged him on his first day as tutor. Though, despite it was totally wrong, she didn't want to let Takeda steal the boy's job, which was why she had decided to drug him. Nothing and no one would separate her from her Fuu-kun.

It didn't take more than just a few minutes for the news about Takeda sleeping during a test in his class to spread around the whole school during the afternoon, and his incomplete test would surely lower his grades. In fact, most of the students were talking about said test after the second half of lessons, with the quints hearing everything while going to study to the library.

"He fell asleep while taking a test? He's lazy like Ichika.", said Yotsuba, making her sister pout.

"I'm tidying my bedroom up in these days, so I'm not that much lazy anymore.", said the oldest quint, causing the bunny ribbon girl to chuckle.

"I knew that that guy wasn't serious like Fuutarou.", said Miku neutrally, with Itsuki nodding in agreement.

"Speaking of him, how is he, Nino?", asked the youngest quint.

"He texted me and said that he feels slightly better. Oh, he wishes us a good studying session too.", she replied, smiling and blushing.

"I'm glad to know it. Uesugi-San is giving his all to teach us, so we must pass the exams at our best!", exclaimed Yotsuba, getting nods and giggles from her sisters.

So the quints went inside the library and started to revise each subject, determined to achieve good grades and to show to their father that only Isanari's son was the best suited person to tutor them. Besides, the main reason he fired him was because he didn't want to let him stay together witg Nino, so every quint was angry with him for that.

Ebata was against Maruo's decision as well, because he could see that Nino was very happy witg the young man, but he couldn't discuss about it with the doctor because he was sure that he would fire him as well. He understood that he was overprotective, but it was clear that Nino loved the young Uesugi very much and the fact that she was living with him was a clear proof of it.

Some hours later, the quints finished to study and Nino greeted her sisters before walking back towards the Uesugi household. Her plan to ruin Takeda's grades worked, so that meant that Maruo was going to be disappointed of him and refuse to employ him as a tutor. The mere fact of still having her beloved husband to teach her made her very happy, but still, she knew that her father wouldn't give up.

'No matter what you try to do, I won't let anybody take Fuu-kun's job. You can't divide us.', she thought while her blue eyes got darker and ominous. They were scary just like Fuutarou's when he glared at Takeda and her father for having made her cry.

Still, they returned to normal once she was in front of the Uesugi's house, opening the door and getting welcomed by Raiha with a hug. "Welcome back, Nino-san! Onii-chan feels better now and he told me that it's thanks to you.", told her the little girl, smiling.

"Aww, your brother really knows to make my heart flutter so much. I will go to him and then help you with the dinner later, so we will eat all together when Isanari-san comes back.", said the social butterfly, getting an "Of course!" as reply.

So she went towards Fuutarou's room and opened the door, finding her beloved laying in his futon in his pajamas like in the morning. Hearing the sound of the door, he opened his eyes and smiled.

"Welcome back, Nino.", he told her, getting up to sit down.

"I'm back. I missed clinging onto you during school.", she said, sitting next to him and hugging him happily.

"Even if you are glued to me basically every day?"

"I love you more than anything in this world, so i will never get tired of clinging on you. Besides, I'm happy to see that you feel better."

"Sorry again for worrying you, but after another day of rest, I will be completely fine.", he said, caressing her head gently.

"Glad to hear it. Say, did you feel lonely without me here?", she asked, gazing into his eyes.

"I knew you would come back, so not really. On the other hand, I think you were sad that I wasn't with you at school.", he said, smiling and leaning his forehead on hers.

"You're totally right~.", she told him before kissing him instantly. The boy kissed her back and their tongues began to dance together while he slowly got on top of her. He also started to kiss her neck then, unbuttoning her shirt and lifting her bra to see her beautiful mounds of meat.

"I adore it when you give me this much love~. Don't worry, I will keep my moans low so no one can hear us~.", she told him, looking at him with pink heart pupils.

"Here I go then~."

After saying that, he gave in it and his mouth proceeded to lick and suck her left nipple while his hands groped both her breasts. His wife couldn't refrain from moaning, putting a hand on her mouth to keep them low as she said. Since she was his, he could do what he wanted with her; their fates got united after their bonfire dance, so they belonged only to each other.

It wasn't a case that Fuutarou's right hand began to touch her under the fabric of her panties, with his fingers playing a little with her clitoris. Nino was already wet while he sucked on her tits, but his hand playing with her pussy made her even wetter.

'Ahn~! I love this handsome so much~! Every part of me belong only to you, Fuu-kun~!', she thought, asking him to kiss her. Smiling, he planted his lips on hers and continued to play with her breasts and her vagina, adoring how wet she got.

'You're only mine, Nino~.'

Maruo could try it in every way, but nothing could make the top student decide to leave his wife. Nothing.

Consequently, due to his ministrations on her body, the social butterfly reached the orgasm and came, releasing some love juices. "Hanf~, do you want to take a bath together, darling~?", she asked him, panting and smiling.

"I didn't take a bath yet, so why not~."

So he took her in his arms and they left the room to go to the bathroom, where they took each other's clothes and filled the bathtube with not too hot water. Since he didn't fully recover, it was dangerous to take a too hot bath. Besides, he got hotter enough due to what he did to Nino, who happily sat between his legs inside the bathtube and leaned her head on his chest.

"I feel in bliss~. Bathing together my husband is the best hehe.", she said, giggling.

"Heh, getting "married" was really a great idea if I can see you so happy. By the way, did you and your sisters have trouble while studying today?, he asked, hugging her waist and leaning his chin on her head.

"There were some exercises or concepts that we couldn't understand, but we revised everything well enough. That's the proof that only your teachings can help us."

"Don't worry, I will never abandon you 5.", he said, hugging her tighter. The girl blushed and smiled happily before locking her eyes with his and planting her lips on his for the umpteenth time.

They didn't care if they kissed too many times every day because they loved doing it just like they adored having sex. Also, hearing him that he will never abandon her and her sisters made Nino's feelings stronger again.

'If someone else dares to steal your job or insults our love, they will reap what they sow like Takeda did. I will allow nobody to break us apart, Fuu-kun~.', she thought while moaning inside his mouth when he started to grope her tits again. Just like he was possessive of her, Nino was the same and didn't want to leave him.

She looked forward to hear Maruo saying that Takeda wasn't good anymore to be a tutor the following day, so he wouldn't dare to steal her husband's job anymore. And what she did to him would happen to other people that dared to separate her from her love or spout rubbish about him because no one had to hurt or make fun of her husband.

A/N

And the first new chapter for this new year is here! Even if it's a bit late, I wish everyone of you buddies a nice 2023!

Things got obscure, huh? Not only Nino drugged Takeda to make him pay for what he said about her relationship with her Fuu-kun, but also she caused his grades to get lower in order to make Maruo decide to not employ him anymore. Also, ever since she "married" Fuutarou, she calls herself his wife constantly.

What happened to Takeda has the high chance to happen to the next person that dares to take Fuutarou's job or to insult his relationship with the social butterfly or to hurt him. But meanwhile, what will Maruo tell the sparkles guy after knowing about his grades? What will happen then? Stay tuned to find out.

See ya!
