Twenty minutes later, I returned to the Club Building with Misaki. She didn't want to return to her club anymore, claiming that she already finished their practice for the day.
As I obviously didn't want to leave her behind in the clubhouse, I allowed her to join back at the Literature Club.
With Misaki being Misaki, she would probably go anywhere as long as I'm with her. And it's not like I could say no to her puppy eyes. Plus, I'm sure the girls wouldn't mind having her around. Her adorable innocence was also a soft spot for them.
We entered the Literature Club's room and everyone looked at us with varying expressions. Rumi had a look that seed to say 'As I expected'. Kana shyly waved as she welcod a junior. Hana and Rae welcod the girl with a smile. Otsuka-senpai was naturally curious about the girl as she imdiately swooned around her. Reira-senpai looked at with a raised eyebrow. And lastly, Nikka-senpai was just amused at seeing another girl basically sticking to .
I saw her nudging Reira-senpai and whispered, "Reira, you should be more proactive. Onoda- kun might be snatched up before your eyes."
Yeah. Despite being in the sa room, she didn't really see flirting with the girls earlier. She still thought I was just in a club filled with girls.
With Misaki's addition, the room beca even more livelier and as soon as we filled her in on what we wanted to do, she imdiately volunteered to be another actor.
Rae took her in, telling everyone that she already had an idea of what role she would hand to Misaki.
I got freed again but I stayed there, coordinating with everyone while stealthily flirting as well, spending this day's club activities preparing for our booth.
When it was close to the end of the club hours, I slipped out again to check upstairs. The Student Council was also slowly getting busier with the upcoming Cultural Festival. Although Shizu made sure that I would only need to do my duty two tis a week, I thought I should still stop by and check.
The mont I stepped into the Student Council room, a familiar scene greeted . Shizu was seated at her usual spot, a stack of papers before her. Her pen moved with precision as she signed off on docunts. Her expression is one of focus and authority.
Despite the busy atmosphere, the room felt calm. Komoe and Minami Shouko had started working together. As for the couple, Masato-senpai and Watanabe, they were in their own world, discussing sothing as they were probably working on a task set by Shizu.
When she noticed , her pen paused mid-motion, and she looked up, a faint smile gracing her lips. "Numbskull, did you miss already?"
"I do. I always do, you know?"
"Cheeky bastard." Shizu quipped but she couldn't help her lips from curling into a jovial grin.
"There you go. Your smile will never fail to make lt. Anyway, I figured I'd check-in. I thought you might need a hand with the preparations," I replied as I stepped further into the
room.
I greeted Minami Shouko who was pouting again because she still felt I tricked her to be in this council.
Then I patted Komoe's head, praising her for a good job. Although the girl was my assistant in na, she ended up helping more in the council than staying with in the other room.
Watching approach, Shizu leaned back in her chair, stretching slightly as she looked at with an appraising and affectionate gaze. "Free ti, huh? Rumi-senpai would scold you again if she heard those words from you."
"Hey, I told her where I'm going. And they're a little busy too. You know. We're quite ambitious for our booth," I replied with a playful grin. "Anyway, I know how hard you're all working here. I wanted to see if I could ease so of your load."
After saying that, I also looked at Komoe, Minami Shouko and even Watanabe who was already jotting down sothing on her notepad. Masato-senpai next to her could only shake his head at his girlfriend's antics.
At the very least, he's still not seeing unfavorably.
Shizu's eyes softened for a mont before she masked it with her usual cool deanor. "Flatterer. But since you're here, I suppose I could find sothing for you to do."
From her tone, I could tell she appreciated the gesture even if she wouldn't outright say it.
Shizu had always been the type to carry burdens quietly, rarely asking for help. Well, not until I broke into her bubble. Now, she loves delegating work. So, in a way, the Student Council was now more efficient with her lead.
"Alright, Numbskull. If you're serious about helping today, there's a stack of event proposals that need reviewing. Komoe's been learning, but I'd like a second opinion. Think you can handle that?"
"Mhm. Leave it to ." I took the folder she handed over and pulled up a chair beside her. But before focusing on it, I couldn't restrain myself from reaching for her hand and pulling her for a kiss.
The girl's eyes widened in surprise but only for a mont. As always, he leaned into , her cheeks flushing a darker shade of red. It was a simple, yet intimate mont, our lips pressing together for a brief second before we parted.
She pinched my cheek before puffing her cheeks as she complained, "I love that kiss, but blockhead, we have a lot of work to do. Give that as a reward for later.
"I understand." I impishly smiled before picking the folder back to start my work
While I read through the proposals, Shizu returned to her own work, occasionally asking for my input or explaining a detail.
Not long after, Komoe and Minami Shouko also started coming to for help. But it was quite obvious that they just wanted my attention. I understand that for Komoe since she's also my girl but Minami Shouko? The girl was still focused on feeling that genuine connection with so... I didn't turn her down in helping her settle further.
At least, she's now spending her ti more efficiently than trying to cause trouble around the school. Nevertheless, she's still far from being considered 'rehabilitated'. Maybe if she beca unhappy, she might just return to her ways.
Well, we're here to prevent that. Give it a week and she'd be fully settled as the Student Council's General Affairs Officer.
