"Fuu! What did you get for us? Is it a gift!?" Said an excited Yotsuba said as she's circling around the boy who just smiled at her and replied,

"That's a secret, Yotsuba."

"Fuutarou is being secretive..." Miku pouted.

"Is it food? Please tell me it's food, Fuu-chan!" Itsuki asked as her eyes sparkled just by thinking about what kind of food they'll eat together.

"..." He stayed silent, looking at the cute redhead whose ahoge was moving like a dog's tail.

"Oh? Fuutarou-kun didn't say anything? So are you taking us out to eat? Are you? Fuutarou-kun is such a playboy. Taking not one, not two but ten girls out to eat! Fuutarou-kun is such a player."

"Well whatever it is, as long as it's with Fuu-chin, I don't mind where we're going." Rikka chimed as Yuki and Tsuyu nodded.

"Mhm, as long as I'm with darling, I won't mind where we're going either."

"Well, I hope it's to your liking since it's my first time." He said but turned to his side where Haruka pulled his sleeve and whispered something to his ear.

"Uh, you don't hate mint do you? Since uhm, mom told me some people don't like it..." She asked softly, making sure that the group behind them didn't hear her question.

"Huh?" He said in confusion until he remembered the kiss she pulled yesterday. "Ah, well I don't dislike mint and I didn't mind that kiss either so... I don't hate it." He replied, making the blonde sigh in relief.

"Phew, I thought you hated it... Guess I was worrying for nothing! Haha!" She laughed before going back to her sisters. As the sidetailed blonde went back, a ribboned redhead was beside him.

"Hm? Nino?"

"Uhm... Thanks for the help yesterday... Fuu-kun." She said as she had a soft smile at him before going back to her sisters.

He looked behind him to see both sets of quintuplets getting along with smiles that made him happy. Seeing how far Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba and Itsuki had come made both corners of his lips slowly move up.

"They've really come so far..." He said before some hands intertwined with both of his and pulled him.

"Come on, Fuu! Don't just stand there!"

"She's right, let's walk side by side."

"Dibs on darling's left hand!"

"Ah! No fair Aki! Leave some Fuutarou-chan for the rest of us!"

Seeing that it hasn't been 10 minutes since they left school and they're already fighting for him made him laugh. 'Seems like I already have an answer for that question that's been stuck on my mind.' he thought as he pulled Yotsuba and Aki who was holding his hands towards him to a hug.

"You girls too, come here." Fuutarou said as he gestured to them to come closer. Now they were all walking close together with some clinging and snuggling their faces at him.

That little scene lasted a few minutes until he tried to pry off Yotsuba who was still on him even when they already reached the bakery with a simple red velvet cake decorated with butterflies identical to the ones Nino was wearing and had 'Congratulations Nino!' written on it.

"Oh? I didn't think that you were the type to make these kinds of things, Fuutarou-kun."

"Fuutarou, the way you applied the icing looks like it was done by a professional!" Tsuyu said as she admired the cake.

"I just did what my mom taught me before. I also followed the recipe she left behind."

"I bet this will taste amazing, Fuu-chan! I want to eat it already!" Itsuki excitedly said as her ahoge wagged like a dog's tail with her eyes sparkling.

"Fuu-kun... Thank you!" Nino said as she hugged the boy with Yotsuba who was still hugging him like a child who doesn't want to let go of its toy.

"Well then darling, let's get some food!"

"Come here, Haruka, Yuki!" Aki and Rikka said as they grabbed their sister's hands and pulled them. Now all of the teens were now surrounding the cake, with Nino in the middle.

"Now, 1, 2... Congratulations, Nino!" They all said in unison as the butterfly ribboned girl smiled and said "Thank you, all of you!"

The group then started to eat the cake, with Fuutarou bringing out a second one just to be safe since they had two big eaters this time and of course, the said two already took a slice for themselves and started eating with the others having a fun conversation.


"Honey, I'm coming home next month. Around mid February." A man with red eyes and black hair said as he was on the phone.

"You're finished with your business there?" Emiko said with a sigh.

"So you don't want to see your husband after a long time?"

"Well, you would usually just be lazy on your laptop either doing light paper work or watching movies and playing games. Or you would harass your daughters by dragging them around to random places. Last time Aki and Rikka didn't talk to you for a month since you brought them to Antarctica just to see some penguins. You're lucky that Haruka and Yuki were on your side that time. Also Tsuyu..." Emiko continued to numerate the numerous times where the man brought and disturbed his daughters whether they were doing school work or working.

"P-please, no more..." The man said as he was kneeling, clenching his hand on his chest as he remembered the cold stares his daughters gave him. Especially Aki's who stare still gives him chills when he remembers it.

"Fufu, well you'd be surprised when you get home next month." She giggled before saying goodbye and hanging up the phone while the man stood up and thought about what his wife just said.

"T-they won't kill me, right?..."


A/N: I'm not dead yet... 5 cups of coffee per day won't kill me, right?
