"We're dating!"

It was a big announcement Mahiru and Kazuichi made to the class upon their first day back from winter break, and while the two had expected confusion or shock as they declared this statement to the class, the only one who seemed surprised was Sonia. The rest of the class merely glanced around at each other.

"Well…yeah, we kinda knew that already?" Fuyuhiko said as the class continued to stare.

"You…you did?" Mahiru asked.

"Yeah, it was kind of obvious," Akane replied, which, if she was saying it, meant that they hadn't been as sneaky about it as they'd thought.

"I…I didn't know…" Sonia said, then suddenly stood up, her assets bouncing as she did so, making Kazuichi glance over before he could stop himself. "Th-Then I have an announcement too!"

"Y-You do?" Kazuichi and Mahiru said at once.

"Mhm!" Sonia strode across the room to Gundham's desk and slammed her hand down onto it, beaming as she turned to the rest of the class. "We are dating as well!"

Once again, not a single shocked face was present in the room. The only sign of any real emotion was Kazuichi's slightly deflated look.

"I already knew, but to hear it so confidently kind of hurts…" he said, and Mahiru gently bumped him. They were still covering themselves with their hands for now, or else Mahiru would've grabbed his shoulder for comfort. Nevertheless, he leaned against her, enjoying her warmth against his body.

"Well then…if we're all done with that, can we start class?" Chisa asked. "Or does anyone else have a dating announcement?" Chisa pointedly looked over at Chiaki as she said it, and the girl shifted away as she did but didn't speak. Chisa sighed again as she walked over and placed both hands on Kazuichi -'d Mahiru's backs, making them jump. "Get back to your seats, please! You too, Sonia!"

And with that, the class began as usual.

"I-I'm surprised you're so comfortable with…being outside."

"Well, yeah, the attention is actually kind of nice. Plus, I know with Sonosuke around, no one will come near us~" Ruruka cooed as she rubbed her boyfriend's chest. The three of them had gone out to a cafe to eat together and were currently sitting at one of the outside tables. Dozens of passerby as well as the other customers, were all staring at the beautiful naked woman sitting with them, and it had been making Seiko feel a little uncomfortable, even if the attention wasn't on her. Maybe it was jealousy since she couldn't stop herself from staring, either.

Which apparently Ruruka had noticed.

"The attention from you is really nice as well~" she teased, and to everyone's shock, she reached up and cupped her boobs in her hands to shake them around, eliciting a shriek from Seiko as her face burned. "You know you should sign up. It's really freeing~"

"P-Please stop doing that!" Seiko cried, seeing several of the men nearby reaching for their groins.

"Why? Because it's bothering you~?"

"Y-Yes!"

"I will if you show me yours~"

"WHAT?!" Seiko cried, and before she knew what was happening, Seiko reached over and flipped up her shirt, snagging her bra along the way and causing her breasts to bounce free, which got an even bigger reaction from the people around them. Seiko shrieked as she grabbed Ruruka's hand and tried to throw her shirt back down before someone took a picture.

"Ma'am?"

Ruruka turned to find a waitress with a red face staring at them. "Yeah?" Ruruka asked.

"I-I know you're part of the n-nudity program and everything," the girl stammered, "but she isn't, so if you keep doing that, I'll have to kick you out."

"Awww, fine," Ruruka said as she finally let go. Seiko ducked down to fix her bra and shirt, desperately hoping no one had caught a picture.

"Also, please try and keep your disruptions down," the waitress asked before skittering away. Ruruka pouted as she leaned back in her seat. Seiko emerged again as everything was fixed, her face burning hot.

"I-I can't believe you did that…" Seiko said, and Ruruka shrugged.

"You need to lighten up a little. Plus, it's only fair for how much you get to see me nude."

"Th-That was your own choice!"

"Yeah, but you're always staring. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing," she remarked, "but it's not fair that I don't get to see you too. I'm sure you'd be cute naked."

"Y-You could just ask…" Seiko said quietly.

"Huh?"

"Nothing. Can we please just eat in peace?" Ruruka sighed.

"Fine," she answered, and finally, the three could eat normally, with Ruruka taking some wrapped candy out of her bag to hand to Sonosuke.

All the while, Seiko continued to be unable to stop staring at her friend.

"Why not?!"

"Because they already denied you."

"That's not fair! I call for a recount!"

"Hanamura, this is not up for debate," Jin said sternly. "We will reject your application to join the program because you have been put on a 'deny' list."

"Give me a good reason why!"

"Well, you attempted to assault Miss Saionji when you had that incident with the aphrodisiac soup, did you not?"

"H-How did-?"

"I'm aware of many of the things that go on in this school, I'll have you know."

"E-Everybody else was acting weird too, though!"

"According to the report, you were the one most forward and harsh with your advances. You were ready to turn the situation into something positive for you, weren't you?" he questioned.

"I don't see what that has to do with-"

"You are considered as someone potentially dangerous even without nudity, so you are absolutely not becoming a nudist. That is final." Teruteru stared at him for a while.

"You'd…really deny me such a wonderful thing…even though you're a man like I am?!" Teruteru cried.

"It has nothing to do with being a man. Now leave my office," Jin said sternly.

"Gahhhhh! How could you!" Teruteru continued to cry. "This is injustice! This is misery! Unfairness! Cruelty!"

"If you don't get out, I'll force you out," Jin threatened, but Teruteru just continued.

"As men, it is our duty to stick together and see the bountiful beauty in front of us. Allowing me this privilege may give me the access I need to appreciate all the beauty this school has to offer! I've heard that Sayaka Maizono may be joining next year, and to be able to stand beside her and show off everything I have to offer without persecution?! How could you deny me such-"

The boy would've gone on, but Jin had walked over, picked him up, and tossed him out of his office, closing the door and locking it behind him with a sigh.

"No way I'm letting you run around nude with my daughter around," he snarled before returning to his seat to tackle the paperwork he still had left for that day while hearing Teruteru pounding uselessly on the door.
