Chapter 2148: Deciding the conclusion
On the station before the one that leads to their school, Futaba and Eri's boyfriends met up with us.
They squeezed in through the crowd after we pointed out where we should be.
When they reached us, both of them looked like they fought a hard battle against the wave of other passengers or just those who refused to let them squeeze into the already cramped space.
Still, a relieved smile appeared on their faces upon seeing their girls not in any inconvenience at all.
Futaba and Eri greeted them and as what any normal girlfriend would do, they attentively looked after them.
Although they were curious about what happened last night, they didn't ask for the exact details. They only asked if they enjoyed the sleepover.
Eri naturally boasted about how fun it was while Futaba silently nodded. Her furtive gaze occasionally landed on me.
I don't think she's feeling guilty about what happened but she's probably feeling conflicted about keeping things from him.
I mean, they already talked about not revealing the fact that I slept in the same bed as them - and cuddled with me too.
Eri was aware of the complications that might arise if she revealed it. She might be pretty naive but not foolish and insensitive.
However, despite that, she still revealed how we got closer over playing a game.
Without mentioning the 'tickling' part, she revealed that I didn't win a single game against them which led to some kind of punishment game.
Upon hearing that, the two boys tapped my shoulder, sympathizing with my plight.
I laughed it off with them by jokingly admitting that I went easy against them.
It was partially true though. But they didn't know that.
Eri immediately clapped back at me, calling out that I was lying. Then the other three also drove their stakes at me as they jointly agreed to Eri.
I continued my playful act by telling them I wouldn't hold back next time.
They then challenged me again and even bet on it.
As for what they put out as a bet, they didn't get to say it because the train already stopped at our station. Also, I made everyone around us, including the other passengers, a little uncomfortable when I pulled Akane to my front and cuddled her which my lovely wife happily welcomed.
On our way out of the station, Fuyu cutely displayed a hint of her jealousy by sticking close to me and then squeezing my pinky and ring fingers that she sneakily grabbed.
I appeased her by locking our fingers together and hiding them from the crowd using our bags.
With Akane on my right who openly hugged my arm and Fuyu on my left who was sneakily holding hands with me, I walked them to the gates.
Eri, Futaba, and their boyfriends walked ahead of us so those two guys also didn't notice anything unusual about us.
Before I separated from them, those two boys, who I still couldn't remember the names of, sincerely thanked me for hosting the girls last night and escorting them today.
Without any change in my expression, I nodded at them in response as though conveying that I only did the right thing.
Well, they wouldn't know about what happened unless either of the two let it slip. I could just continue acting like normal around them.
That's better for everyone, no?
-
On my way back to the station I met up with Elizabeth and Yukari who also ran into Aoi and Ohori-senpai.
Looks like they're also helping with their search for that cuck's followers.
However, they also still couldn't catch him today. He was probably warned. Searching for him would be fruitless by now.
Since I still want to take the remaining time to spend with my girls before I go and pick up Marika, I brought them to the same cafe as before.
Ignoring the judging gaze of the owner, I had Elizabeth and Yukari clinging to me.
Ohori-senpai also reacted to it but not strongly anymore. After interacting with them, she'd be an idiot not to notice that everyone who helped her was connected to me.
As for my unruly girl, she pouted and then used her feet to convey how jealous she was by sneakily stretching it underneath the table and rubbing her toes between my legs...
Mhm. She was acting boldly but despite noticing that, Elizabeth and Yukari didn't do anything. In fact, they're probably just waiting for their turn to tease me.
Elizabeth was already whispering about how much she missed her Prince's presence while Yukari was just silently enjoying the touch of my hand that she placed on her thigh.
Thankfully, I got saved when the drinks and bread we ordered arrived.
In any case, even if that made them behave, I already decided not to separate from them without returning the favor.
I miss them just as much as they miss me...
But before that, we still have a topic at hand.
"Alright. Let's go over this again. Ohori-senpai, are photos still being sent to you?"
"There were a few in my shoe locker yesterday. But don't worry. I think it will be over soon."
"What do you mean?"
"... He will stop. No. I will make them stop. Onoda-kun. I cannot keep relying on you, Aoi, and the rest. I also have to stand up for myself, right?"
"Heh. Ohori-nee. Did you finally find your footing?"
"What footing? I think I'm just trying to go back to how I was before meeting that bastard.
Ugh."
"That's good to hear, senpai. If you can, shame him as much as you want to get back at him. Aoi and the rest will support you." I said as I tried to encourage her again. I looked at the three girls and they all nodded at me in approval.
"That's right. We'll free you from whatever rumors he tries to frame on you. Those other girls already confessed anyway. He's cooked!"
"Verily, it is as you say! I, along with my loyal servants, shall stand behind you, noble senior. We shall be the sword of justice that strikes down upon the wretched scoundrel who wronged you! Fear not, for My Prince here shall trample upon his foul ambitions, putting an end to his villainy once and for all!"
"Uhm. What Elizabeth meant was, she's also going to rally our class to your support, senpai. And with Ruki here, no matter how disgusting his fetish is... he stands no chance against him
if he puts his mind to it!"
Like Aoi, Elizabeth and Yukari also added their input.
Well, Yukari just translated Elizabeth's chuunibyou antics again. She's more versed in it than
me.
But why are they pitting me against him? Uh... I guess that works too. It's also within my plan to ensure that this issue will be buried without any chance of returning afterwards. Ohori-senpai smilingly nodded in gratitude as she looked at us with a slightly tearful expression, "Thank you... I won't forget this. And Onoda-kun. I'll turn a blind eye to all of
this! You have my word."
"Senpai, do you really have to add that last part?"
"I can't just pretend not to see what's happening, right? You're unbelievable. There's not only
Aoi and Shimizu..."
I laughed and raised my arms in surrender, "Alright. I'm not the villain here but it feels like I just became one in your eyes."
"Sorry. I can't help it. But I think I get the gist of it. Take care of Aoi... And the rest of them. They're all so devoted to you... I'll hate you more than my disgusting ex if you hurt all of
them."
"Mhm. You don't have to worry about that part, senpai. My whole life is already centered around them."
I know she will find my words ridiculous but it is what it is. Hearing our conversation, Aoi, Elizabeth, and Yukari giggled and affectionately whispered
their feelings for me before restarting their attempt to tease me without Ohori-senpai orn/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
finding out...
Shortly after that, while enduring my girls' playful intentions, we quickly finished what we ordered and left the cafe before the owner could kick us out for being so openly intimate it was becoming irritating for the other customers.
Then, just like what I planned to do. I made sure to take care of my girls before separating
from them.
In the same narrow alley that we used to go to that cafe, we found an obscure corner where my three girls surrounded me, their desires already apparent on their faces.
Ohori-senpai had to turn around and walk away from us when she noticed what was about to
happen.
Nonetheless, she didn't leave us behind and waited patiently while also keeping an eye out for
us.
Obviously, I got scolded by her and dubbed as shameless for not picking a better place to be
intimate with them.
I graciously accepted that scolding because she was right regardless of how little time we
actually had.
