“Let’s go back together, Arisa”
“Huh? Didn’t we already talk about this? You’re being hunted by the others. If you’re seen with …”
“Well, look at the ti. It will chi any mont now. Everyone will be in a rush, no one will pay attention if we arrive at the school building together.”
“You really… Ugh. Alright, co help fix this. You did it in a rush earlier, good thing none of the buttons was ripped out.”
We did it. That’s for sure. It’s neither a dream nor an illusion. She’s still moist between her legs and our mixed fluids leaked out even after wiping it. Furthermore, there were traces left on the bed and on the desk we left behind in the other room.
Yet, despite doing it and confirming our feelings for one another, there seems to be no change in our relationship except in the way I called her. Removing the ‘senpai’ in her na. In a sense, our relationship had already reached this point even before all this. In her eyes, I was still her shaless and cheeky junior and she’s still the playful senior in my eyes.
Even now that we’re sitting on the side of the bed and I was directly behind her, helping her button up her uniform, Arisa remained the lovely girl that I ca to love after observing her and teasing her a lot.
Is it weird? I guess not.
With our perceived irresistible attraction to each other, the only thing left for us to take a step forward was her answer to my confession and letting go of her guilt towards Nami.
Then what about her fear of entering a relationship again after that failed one?
I also got an answer to that while we were resting. With that strange effect wherein she’s spilling her mind out to , I got to hear her perceived judgnt of my character and the reason why her hesitation and guilt disappeared.
I listened to everything she had to say and until now, I could still recall her burst of emotions as revealed everything, even so details that I thought I got a grasp on.
“You’re an honest idiot, Ruki. The first ti I saw you, that was my first impression of you. Didn’t you answer all my questions back then? Thinking about it, you probably told us half the truth about how your relationship with Nanami started.”
That’s just the start. Yep. It dated back to our first eting. In their clubroom when Nami first brought there to be introduced as her boyfriend. At that ti, Arisa-senpai was the one who grilled us with questions. To think that I was already judged by her…
“I’m partly annoyed with you for suddenly intruding in our circle, even shaking the core by taking the girl Kazuo had his eyes on for years. I’m rooting for Izumi, that’s true. However, it’s quite clear how those two had a mutual understanding… Until your appearance. Then the ntor Program happened and right there… I got to know more about you. You’re bold but you never minced words…”
“We beca aware of our attraction for each other right there… And I scolded you for the first ti because what we did was definitely wrong… No matter how we explained it. But in the end, that vague relationship we had continued. Every ti we would be together, we’d be so lost to each other.”
“Honestly, I hated the sensation that I’m feeling for you. So much that I wanted to escape from you… But I hadn’t gotten any chance to do so. Seeing you with Hina in that clubroom ignited a fire in . More than wanting to suspect you for making her cry, I just hated the fact that you’re alone with another girl…”
And there, she recounted everything, even that mont where Hina cried after being asked by Ogawa to seduce so that he could get Nami back.
I thought she only suspected back then but for it to be like that, I guess I haven’t read her character thoroughly. Even so, she’s still wonderful in my eyes.
After that, Arisa continued narrating each and every interaction or thoughts she had about . Revealing my past to her and then revealing her past to , beca the start of her acceptance. She accepted in her heart what she was feeling for .
Indeed, she was always afraid of another relationship, even more so when she knew my past and what kind of complex relationships I was cultivating. It’s enough for her to seriously consider giving up. However, after days of observing as well as our continuous interaction, she soon ca to a decision after judging that everything I was showing her was devoid of any lies.
I showed her my entire person without hiding anything. And for her, that’s enough to trust another guy again.
When she saw on that stage and how I ssed up my speech, she couldn’t help but beco restless. She even confessed that she couldn’t concentrate too much on the exam because of how she wanted to see … and comfort even though she knew that I had other girls around . She wanted it to be her…
And so, when lunch break arrived, she steeled herself to look for , even braving it to ask Nami herself…
In a way, Arisa sohow marched on a battlefield with only one thought in mind; to see and comfort .
Who wouldn’t fall in love with this girl?
Anyway, that’s what happened…
“There, it’s done. Let’s go?” I finished buttoning her uniform. At the mont, apart from her rosy cheeks, she looked the sa as earlier. Even her cute side tail was restored to its full glory.
“You’re really calm about this, Ruki. Are you not worried?”
“Why will I? I have many excuses prepared in case soone sees us and questions why we’re together…”
Honestly, even if Satsuki, Nami and the others followed , I could also think of an excuse if we were questioned when we returned. As for their believability, I’d say it’s more than 50%.
“Alright… Let’s go.” Having decided that, we left the Book Club together and locked it again after wiping that desk.
Well, Arisa did ask about that hidden bedroom and I honestly told her about Haruko. Not everything about her, of course. Just enough to explain why it exists. Even if I bare everything to my girls, there’s still the distinction between what’s considered ‘things about ’ and ‘things about my girls’. And that bedroom was Haruko’s and the Poem Appreciation Club’s property and secret.
Fortunately, we didn’t run into anyone on our way back to the School Building, and before we separated, I asked her another question, “Arisa, I’m aware that my speech was a ss but what’s your honest thought about how I delivered it?”
I forgot to ask her this because we got too focused on each other. But I still wanted to hear a different perspective. I already heard Nami and the other girls’ view of it and this ti I want to hear it from her. Just in case she saw sothing else.
Arisa contemplated for an answer. Just by the expression written on her face, she’s currently arranging her words to make understand what I did wrong. “Uhm… If I have to say sothing that got worried enough to co and find you is this… Ruki, you sounded like you’re already throwing your weight around. A lot of 2nd-year and 3rd-year boys got a bad impression of you because of it.”
Bad impressions. I guess that’s better than acquiring enemies…
