Hmm? Look at her saying my na as smoothly as that. Isn’t she sticking to calling ‘Onoda-kun’? What changed?
In any case, Futaba failed to account for the fact that Akane, Fuyu, and Eimi could see us directly from where they were sitting.
When I glanced at them, they all looked at suspiciously with a hint of jealousy.
Yeah... I can’t make an excuse for this.
“Hey, is it true? What did you do?” Eri turned to again, her inquisitive gaze felt like it was drilling into the back of my head.
“Do you really want to hear?” I replied with a question, making it sound mysterious even though my hand was still steady on Futaba’s waist to keep her from swaying with the train’s rhythm.
Eri’s eyes narrowed at my answer. She’s quite sharp in things like this, after all. And given that she also knew about what happened between us, she couldn’t help but be more intrigued.
“Oh? Now you’re being all mysterious? Co on, Ruki. Are you hiding things from your girl best friend? Hmph.”
“Alright. I’m not hiding anything. It’s just going to be uncomfortable for her if I tell you.”
“Is it sothing personal?”
“Mhm. Pretty much.”
“I see...” Eri’s voice trailed a bit there as her gaze once again landed on her friend. “... Futaba, lucky you. Ruki here is so gentlemanly. I’ll let it pass to not make you uncomfortable.”
She brushed the tip of her nose with her fingers as though she was proud of her choice.
Seeing that, Futaba glared at again before shifting back to address whatever misunderstanding Eri was currently thinking.
“Eri! It’s nothing too serious. He’s just... Um... helping keep my feet stabilized. That’s all.”
She tried to pull away from my hold, but the crowded car made it impossible. Her front pressed firr against my chest instead, and I couldn’t help but feel her bountiful softness pressing on .
“Helping, huh? Husband’s hands look pretty comfortable there. Fuyu, what do you think?” Akane chid in with a teasing smile.
Fuyu, who was staring at as though she was also demanding an explanation, coughed once before responding. Her eyes focused on where my arm wrapped around Futaba’s waist. “It looks... supportive. But I guess it’s pretty comfortable. Her ears are red.”
Eimi couldn’t help but cover her mouth. Most likely, she’s holding back a giggle. When our eyes t, she slightly widened her eyes as though warning not to get too comfortable, as it was becoming conspicuous. After all, we’re still in a public place. The other passengers could still see us.
“Akane, Fuyu... It’s not like that. Ugh.” Futaba groaned in resignation. At the mont, she’s practically helpless in our situation. If I pulled my arm back, she might bump into the passenger behind her if the train sways again.
And it’s not like I can easily pull it back. We’re like sardines at the mont, squeezed together in this crowded car that any sudden sway of the train made her body press even tighter against mine.
The three girls in front of us just shook their heads while Eri, who was behind , couldn’t help but lean closer as though she was trying to see what our current situation was exactly.
“Must be nice to have soone help you stabilize your footing, huh? Your balance is whack because of that massive... asset.” Eri playfully said before she stopped tiptoeing.
Like this, Futaba, the supposed most sensible girl among their group, could only close her eyes or look in another direction just to not beco too conscious of .
Of course, I also didn’t do anything else other than this. I could already sense that Akane and the other two wouldn’t take this lightly. They’d probably scold later. Or perhaps, demand to ease the slight jealousy they’re feeling at the mont, even if our situation wasn’t even that intimate.
Around fifteen minutes later, the train arrived at our destination. Futaba quickly tried to take a step out of my hold as soon as a space opened up.
I didn’t make it difficult for her. I pulled my arm back and twisted slightly to offer my hand to the three in front of us, helping them up from their seats.
Eri circled from behind as she went to check on her friend, who was still trying her best not to act flustered. But with how playful Eri is... it didn’t take long before I heard her giggling while Futaba growled at her friend.
As we got out of the train car, the two girls’ boyfriends were waiting by the stairs.
They didn’t notice anything, of course. Naturally, Eri wouldn’t say anything as well. After all, it’s not like anything indecent happened. But I doubt she’ll be able to continue being quiet if... she learned about Futaba’s request to continue that session about testing her sensitivity...
Those two greeted as though we were friends. After all, the girls we are dating are part of the sa friend group. Too bad though. I was still the bastard who couldn’t really see any guy as a friend if they treated as one.
Anyway, they walked ahead of us while I got sandwiched between Eimi and Fuyu, with Akane just a step in front of .
As always, the other students from their school stared at us with curiosity and envy.
Most of it was directed at . With Akane and Fuyu’s popularity, seeing them with is enough for so of the boys to seethe. Then, there’s even the addition of Eimi.
Although she’s not as famous as the other two, she’s still attractive and full of charm.
“Ruki, stop teasing Futaba so openly...” Fuyu whispered at my side with a hint of her jealousy. At the sa ti, she linked arms with . She slipped her hand in mine with her fingers perfectly filling the gaps.
When I glanced at her side, her face was already pink. This was her first ti openly acting like this while disregarding the gazes focused on us.
“Sorry, Fuyu. Was that how it appeared to you?” I apologized first to show her my sincerity. “Maybe it ca off like that but I didn’t intentionally tease her. As for how the situation turned out like that... I won’t make any excuses. It’s my reflex acting out before I can think again.”
“... I don’t want to sound like a petty and jealous girl, Ruki. And I believe you. It’s just... I can’t help but overthink because of her request.”
Ah. As I expected, she’d be bothered by it. Even though Futaba promised to be honest about it, it’s still sothing that won’t sit right for any girl who’s closely related to .
Akane was also feeling the sa but that girl... she’s already used to this kind of situation, it wasn’t bothering her anymore. If those sessions with Futaba truly develop in a certain way that the girl eventually becos the sa as them... she’ll accept it.
But at this point, it’s still up in the air.
“Mhm. I understand. Given the situation, it’s normal to feel like that.”
I held myself back from blurting out how horrible I am. They also won’t like it if I take all the bla again, after all.
On my other side, Eimi was just silently matching our pace. Whatever was in her head, I could tell that she was feeling the sa as Fuyu.
As for Akane... Well, my silly wife, she’s clearly listening closely.
“Ruki, take care of her, okay? I know you will do that. You’re always considerate. But if things went out of hand, scold her for us.”
“Mhm. I’ll rember that.”
If things went out of hand, huh? It probably will. However, how will I scold the girl? What if I also lost control at that mont? Haa...
That’s a dilemma I have to solve myself. And honestly, I don’t want to disappoint my girls. And at the sa ti, I also don’t want Futaba to feel worse than she already is.
After a while, we soon approached their school gates. Akane turned around to pinch my cheeks and kiss openly.
Gasps openly rang out around us, but the girl ignored all of it. In her eyes, there’s only .
Fuyu, who was still holding my hand, stiffened slightly. But as if she rembered her declaration, she tiptoed from my side as she pulled on my hand. The mont my head turned to her, her lips also pressed on mine. It was quick. But despite that, those who were already staring at us caught it again, and it drew another round of gasping from everyone.
And it didn’t end there. Eimi also stopped hesitating. After Fuyu stepped forward and joined Akane at the front, she tugged at my sleeve, prompting to look in her direction next.
Looking at her expression and her parted lips, I didn’t make her wait anymore.
Just like with Akane and Fuyu, I kissed her. Then, before everyone could react to that, she joined Akane and Fuyu, and the three of them disappeared into the school gates.
As for Futaba and Eri. They already went ahead with their boyfriends. Well, they probably noticed the commotion, but that’s not important anymore.
I nonchalantly turned around and left the place before anyone could block my path out of curiosity over my identity.
