In the end, Futaba's tickling was just one of the many episodes happening in this long sleepover night.
After I swept Akane's no-filter question by laughing it off and bringing Futaba to the front to show that nothing was wrong with her other than not being able to recover from being flustered, I brought the girl to her seat next to Eri.
Futaba was still glaring at though but that's fine. She'd calm down soon. On the other hand, Eri teased her friend, asking her how the experience was.
And Futaba's answer? "I wish for you to experience the sa thing."
Eri got confused by that since she's the one who got tickled first but Futaba refused to elaborate.
When Eri turned to for clarification, I also didn't say anything other than winking at her. After that, I went around the table to take a seat in the middle of Akane and Fuyu. Perhaps because of what happened, Futaba and Eri didn't find it strange that I sat between them.
Thanks to that, I could sneakily grab Fuyu's hand who reprimanded through her gaze to behave. She's still this adorable. Good thing she didn't watch that tickling session, otherwise, I wouldn't be reprimanded lightly like this. She'd straight up interrogate and then secretly hint that she wanted the sa treatnt.
Ah. That last part was just my wishful thinking. But considering how assertive she was already, I could already imagine her asking for more intimacy. I an, last night, even though that should be her first ti sleeping next to a guy, she cuddled with and felt so secure within my embrace. Shouldn't that need so kind of progress first?
I guess that's not needed for Fuyu. The girl harbored her feelings for for so long in consideration of Akane. And now that we took the cap off of it, her feelings were like an unleashed dam, flooding down on us.
Also, thinking about it, Marika was another example. We started with fake kisses in order to take a photo to provoke Ichihara Jun. But then, when an actual kiss happened between us, she started demanding more. And lately, she doesn't really mind where we do it anymore.
Uh. I'm afraid Misaki is also going down the sa route. But at the very least, I can still limit it with her through pecks and swift kisses. However, it's undeniable that the innocent forehead girl is also close to getting addicted to it. Every ti we're alone, she'll ask for one. Maybe this Sunday, she'll ask for a kiss right as soon as we et up.
Anyway, that's that.
Soon, with Akane and the others already finished fixing the table, we paid our respects to the food and started eating.
That episode with Futaba was soon forgotten as we enjoyed a hearty al that Akane especially prepared for her friends.
As we finished a bowl of rice each, Fuyu praised the taste of Akane's beef stew. She used the recipe of her mother, Aunt Akemi. It now tasted the sa as that leftover she brought to during the first week of school or the day I brought Kana ho.
That felt like ages ago but it's just over two months. And we're now living together.
Apart from the praise for her stew, Eri fought against for the potatoes. I found out that she's a fellow carrot hater when she set aside all her carrots on one side. On the other hand, I still hid my dislike of that vegetable. For every cube of carrots, I would eat three cubes of potatoes. That's the perfect ratio to ignore the rubbery taste of carrots.
But well, that led us to be scolded. This ti, by Akane and Fuyu. In the end, seeing the piled- up carrots in Eri's bowl, she forced the girl to eat half of it. As for the other half, I beca the sacrifice.
To eat all those carrots without chewing, I drank mouthfuls of hot soup to soften them. Thankfully, it worked. Or so I thought.
I almost choked myself from forcing a huge cube. That one, I was forced to chew while Eri laughed at my plight.
I noted that and decided to punish her when another opportunity to tickle her arrived. Speaking of soup, Futaba went quiet on her side as she kept drinking those. It's as if she was trying to cleanse her sugar intake from the crepe through it. Or maybe she's already preparing to negate the incoming sugar intake from our dessert.
And to her horror, after I cut the cake into six pieces, I put two slices on her plate while the four of us only got one each.
Once again, she glared at and hatefully muttered, "I'll rember this, Onoda-kun!" Well, I don't mind her listing my offenses to her. I'll pay it back twofold if I have the chance to help her with sothing. But at this rate, that'll probably not happen soon so... the girl has no choice but to continue listing it, hoping that soday, she can exact her revenge on . Upon finishing our dinner, I went to the bathroom to fill the tub and heat it for their use. Since it was already close to 9 pm, the official start of their sleepover was after dinner. With that, as soon as I returned from the bathroom, I took on the job of taking care of the dishes. It's not everyday that we have guests. And it's still technically our house, right? I should play the part of the host other than teasing them.
Even when Akane and Fuyu ca to my side offering their help, I told them to go back and join the other two to prepare the room and the sleepwear they'd be using tonight.
Fifteen minutes later, the first ones at the sa ti as I finished cleaning up the kitchen and the table, I returned to the living room where a pillow and blanket were already brought down
by Akane.
Eri and Futaba were nowhere to be found. They're already in the bath, taking it together.
Thanks to that, I got the ti to spend with my two girls as we once again played the ga where every ti I lost, I would give them a kiss.
Wait. Win or lose I still have to kiss them so I guess there's no stake in it. In any case, we enjoyed that ti together, especially when Fuyu would be listless after kissing .
On the other hand, Akane was just being Akane. She acted more intimate with and teased Fuyu until the girl folded.
After a while, we set aside the controller and turned off the console to cuddle while waiting for the two to finish their bath.
"You're too considerate, husband. Why don't you join us in the room?"
"You know why. It's for those two. They'll be uncomfortable if I'm also there. Besides... isn't this supposed to be a sleepover for the four of you?"
"Ruki-kun is right, Akane. It's inappropriate. They already lied to Toyama and Maeda-kun that Ruki-kun won't be here."
"Now that you ntion it, why lie? Won't it be bad for them?"
"Uh. Technically, they didn't lie. But maybe they did? It's complicated. But our sleepover has already been in the plan for a while now. Even before you and Akane started living together. They probably still think that this will happen at Akane's house next door so they never said anything when the two told them about today. As for Eri and Futaba, they're afraid they won't let them co even if they say that the venue changed to your house and you won't be in the sa room as us."
I see. I understand now. They lied because they knew how they would react.
But then again, they'll be justified to react that way. I'll also tell my girls not to join if I find out so other guy will be there.
I'm not an ally of justice since I'm soone who steals girlfriends. But is this really okay?
Also, that tickling session happened. Didn't I still end up touching them even if it's just the result of their own 'requests'? Won't they feel bad for them? Or maybe not because they can just look at it as sothing that doesn't have any aning.
Ugh. Am I having a moral dilemma here? Ah. No. It's just worrying about their friends'
relationships.
"Husband, I know what you're thinking... You won't be the reason if their relationship fails at this point. They've been together for so long already. They know the right and wrong."
As always, Akane could read like a book.
What she said was a mature outlook, all things considered. And it's not wrong... How long are they together? They've been in a relationship since their 2nd year in middle school.
Maybe I was just overthinking about it.
