1133  Little Progress

Holding Fuyu’s hand and whispering to her ear, it’s clearly bad from a normal perspective. However, I intentionally did this to instantly get a reaction from the girl after she froze up. I had no idea if she was trying to digest everything or simulate scenarios in her head. Either way, I have to at least get some progress before I go and wake Akane up.

Sure enough, I was successful. The girl instantly moved away and pulled her hand out of my grasp. Unlike what I did with Nakanishi-senpai earlier, I loosely held her hand which made it easy for her to pull back.

While shaking all over, Fuyu’s sharp gaze stabbed through me as she raised her voice at me, “You! As I thought! You’re up to no good! Why did you touch me so casually?! I… I’m not Akane!”

Faced with that furious response, it sounded natural to me except for that last sentence where she stuttered.

Well, I was probably overthinking so I dropped prying on it right away. Instead, I first saved the ladle that she also left behind on the pot, preventing it from falling down because of her hasty movements. Following that, I lowered the heat and continued stirring what she was cooking at the same time as I replied, “You froze up, Yuuki-san. Won’t this burn if you left it at that? I only tried the fastest way to bring you back.” Follow current s on N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net

“E-even so, that’s not enough reason for you to hold my hand.”

“Alright, I apologize. But what I whispered to you were my honest thoughts. You don’t have to answer right away, you can think about it. Just know that I only wanted us to get along.”

After saying that, I stepped away and let go of the ladle, giving the space back to her.

And although she returned to take it and finish what she started, the girl’s meaningful eyes never left my figure.

 I put on a smile and backed further away.

Once I saw her relax and release the tension on her body, I stopped and continued, “Uh. I’ll be in our room, Yuuki-san. I’ll wake up Akane after you’re done here.”

 “S-sure.” Perhaps not expecting me to leave her after what I did, Fuyu’s confusedly said.

I ignored that and continued, “Ah. And also, I look forward to our dinner. Sorry for troubling you on that.”

“Please, stop saying that. You’ve already apologized and thanked me a few times since you arrived. I’ve had enough.” This time, she recovered already and answered in a reprimanding tone.

“Well, I can’t help it. I appreciate everything you did but I also feel sorry for leaving it all to you.”

After pausing for a good while, perhaps thinking of an apt response, she eventually sighed in surrender. “… Okay. I won’t argue anymore. Suit yourself.”

As I started walking out of our kitchen, Fuyu turned her focus back on what she was cooking. Before going upstairs, I glanced back and saw the girl looking in my direction.

Fuyu acted like she was doing something even though I already caught her red-handed. In any case, I simply smiled and continued ascending the stairs.

That’s progress, right? I managed to calm down her wrath and whatever suspicion she was nestling was also weakened.

For the next ten minutes or so, I spent my time just sitting next to the sleeping Akane while also messaging the girls I promised to give an explanation to.

It’s no surprise that all of them reacted the same upon knowing what I went through. When I told them that it ended with only a punch and a kick, they couldn’t believe it and asked for proof.

Well, the proof was a photo of me showcasing the upper half of my body that neither had any bruise nor cut.

That successfully eased their worries with the added bonus of their appreciation of my nakedness. Some of them even sent the same shot of their upper body thinking it was an equivalent exchange.

Obviously, I appreciate all of those photos, making my desire for them burn fiercely.

Anyway, Fuyu called us to dinner not long after I finished chatting with my girls.

Akane, who's still influenced by her quirk, stuck close to me all throughout our dinner, giving me no chance to do a follow-up on my attempt to befriend Fuyu.

I thought of asking her to stay the night but decided against it in the end. I better do that when Akane returns to my insightful yet silly girl. I want her opinion on how to proceed in befriending her best friend.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to walk you, Yuuki-san?”

“I’ll be fine. This isn’t the first time, right? Besides, you better tend to that clingy girl. She’s a hopeless case whenever that time of the month arrives. It’s a lot better that you’re now by her side.”

“Alright. Take care. Uh… We will be relying on you again tomorrow. I will apologize in advance.”

“Don’t! I don’t need your apology or gratitude, Onoda-kun. I’m her best friend. I’m only doing what I can for her.”

“I understand…”

I still had a lot to say for that but I guess it’s best to let it rest at that tonight. Before closing our front door, Akane and I watched Fuyu walk out of our yard and turn to the street where she disappeared from our sight.

And with this, Monday was finally over.

Or not yet. Akane had just woken up so… for the next three hours before resigning to bed, I pampered the girl a lot.

Oh. I didn’t forget to drink Ishida-senpai’s tea.

Tuesday morning passed by quickly. Although the effect of the tea manifested for the third time, Akane once again took care of it. Using her mouth.

Like we both predicted, her period came in the afternoon. It’s not a day yet so her quirk’s effect was still going strong. I actually woke up from the warmth of the insides of her mouth as well as the feeling of her lips enclosed around my length.

As always it felt heavenly that I almost disregard that she was having her menstruation. Funnily enough, Akane stopped me. Even though there’s not really a drawback if we did it while she’s still bleeding, we’d probably spend all morning in that bed satisfying each other.

On the train, we met up with Fuyu again and the same as yesterday, the girl somehow ended up sitting beside me.

During the few minutes we were sitting next to each other, I noticed that the girl’s averseness towards me already lessened and in fact, we managed to exchange a few words even without touching the topic of yesterday.

Since she still hadn’t come up with an answer I left it at that.

After separating from the two, I once again found myself at the same park as last week. There, Yukari was waiting for me, looking as beautiful as ever. Her long dark purple hair was once again done in two low pigtails. They swayed along with the morning breeze as she stood up from where she was sitting to welcome me.

Naturally, after making sure that no one was around except for the few kids and their parents playing on the playground side of this park, I walked to her and held her tightly, easing up my longing for her. The girl did the same before pulling me down with her to the bench and letting my head rest on her bountiful front.

While gently brushing my hair and spoiling me this early in the morning, Yukari started our conversation, “Where do I start? Is it fine for me to scold you for your reckless act yesterday? Or better yet, get you to repent by skipping the day with me?”

I first acted troubled which made the girl amused but after a while, a smile naturally landed on my lips as I raised my head to get a proper look at her, “Let’s see... Anything you wish. After all, this is your special day. Happy birthday, Yukari.”
