Chapter 42
(A/N Notes: Yuriko will regret)
School had already ended, Yuriko and Takeru were already in front of their apartment doors, with Yuriko giving him one last kiss on the lips for the day, then when she finished her kiss she smiled and said
"See you tomorrow, Takeru"
"Ah, y, y, yesh... S, see you tomorrow... Yuriko..."
Takeru who wasn't used to Yuriko being that forward shyly answered her back, and they both went inside their own respective apartments
"Phew... Today was more tiring than usual... But I got to see Takeru being very cute today... ... ... Hm?... ... ..."
<... ... ...>
"... ... ..."
<... ... ...>
"... ... ..." *Fall on her knees and hands*
Yuriko suddenly fell on the floor and looked down as she quickly began to process everything that she did today. Then a drop of water fell on the floor... Her eyes were tearing up, and she was sweating a lot, as her face immediately turned bright red while she had a trembling very happy smile and an immeasurable feeling of regret
...
"... *Closes her eyes and deeply inhales*"
WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING WHEN I WAS DOING ALL THAT!?!?!?
*Grabbing her head in panic*
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhh...*Sniff*"
Not only I kissed his... His... H, h, h, h, h, h, his lips in front of everyone multiple times!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!! That was so embarrassing!!! Why! WHY! WHY DID I KEEP DOING ALL THAT EMBARRASSING STUFF WITH HIM IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!!! WHY DID I GIVE HIM A KISS LIKE THAT!? WHAT THE HELL WAS "If you come, I'll let you rest your face on my chest" THAT I SAID TO HIM!?!?!? WHY DID I UNDRESS MY BLAZER!? WHY DID I UNBUTTONED MY SHIRT NEAR THE CHEST!?!?!? WHY DID I LET HIM BURY HIS FACE ON MY CHEST!?!?!?!?!?!? WHY DID I DO ALL THAT!?!?!?
"... *Deeply inhales and gets up*"
*Goes to her bedroom and cover her face with a pillow
"*Muffled crying scream*"
YOU IDIOT!!! IT'S ONE THING TO SAY YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND! BUT IT'S A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THING TO OPENLY FLIRT WITH HIM IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
*Beating the hell out of her pillows*
About half an hour later
"Haa... Haa... Haa... I'm calmer now..."
After crying, screaming, and shouting to herself, Yuriko finally calmed down enough to stop herself from constantly cursing herself for her embarrassing acts earlier today
"..." Yuriko was now analyzing her earlier situation
And when she started thinking of someone badmouthing Takeru, she immediately began to feel her blood boil
Yuriko then looked at her phone and picked it up, then she put on the messaging app and on Takeru's contact, but from there, her hands stopped moving, as her face turned red, as everything that they have done together today was still fresh in her mind
"... *Puts her phone away*... I should, take a bath, make dinner, and go to sleep today... Yeah, let's do that"
She decided to not think about today for the rest of the night, after some hours when she laid down to sleep, she was unable to fall asleep, as everything that she did together with Takeru came crashing in one after the other, which only made her embarrassed and ashamed, which made it harder for her to fall asleep
Takeru at that time
After entering his apartment
"... ... ..."
Taking a bath
"... ... ..."
Having dinner
"... ... ..."
Going to sleep
"... ... ..."
His mind simply went blank for the rest of the day
At Mitsuto's mansion at that same time
"..."
"... So? How was your new school?"
His father asked him as they had dinner, inside their luxurious mansion, as he looked at his son who had bandages on his nose
"I had a rough start... But I'm sure, that I'll get Nanami-san's heart soon!"
"Tenacious as ever, huh? Just like me, when I was your age, I still remember the first time I confessed to your mother"
"Really? And how did it went?"
"I received the most painful punch of my life right in the face. And look where we're now! A happy family! Sadly it wasn't with her... But I'm sure you can do what I couldn't! So keep it up because the girl you're into will surely fall for you soon"
"That's right!"
The two were a father and son duo of annoying idiots, who never knew when to give up
"By the way where's mom?"
"Oh! She went to... Participate in the women's MMA world tournament"
"So she won't be coming back for a while, huh?"
"Yup... Now tell me more about the girl you're into"
"Okay, so..."
And Mitsuto told his dad about everything he knew about Yuriko so far, minus the part about Takeru being her boyfriend since he didn't think that Yuriko would stay with Takeru for a long time... To which he was wrong! Because I say so
The next day, early morning
"G, good morning, Takeru"
"G, good morning, Yuriko"
They both greeted each other as their faces were red from embarrassment due to Yuriko's actions yesterday, and looked away due to their embarrassment
"... Hmmm... T, Takeru..."
"Ah? Y, yes?"
"W, what would y, you do... I, if someone insulted me?"
"... Nothing much..."
"I see..."
"Aside from giving the person a free pass to the hospital. Why do you ask? Did someone insulted you?"
"Huh! N, no! I, it's just... That someone insulted you in front of me yesterday... And I got really angry at them... A, and I just wanted to know... If... You would do the same"
"..."
"Hiya!"
And Takeru hugged Yuriko, which startled her
"Thank you for getting angry about me"
"... Ehehehe... Of course"
And she hugged him back with a cute happy face. And they went to school while hold hands (A/N Notes: Lewd)
And on their way to school
"*Yawns*"
"Did you had a bad night?"
"... Yeah, you can say so"
Yuriko was unable to say that she was unable to sleep earlier because she was feeling too embarrassed and ashamed, and a little happy too, as she kept remembering everything she did to Takeru yesterday
"I see... Do you want me to give a lap pillow during lunch break?"
"... Yesh..."
Yuriko accepted Takeru's offer as her face turned red
Some hours later
Lunch break
"..."
"Zzzzz..."
Yuriko was soundly asleep as she received a lap pillow from Takeru, as he petted her tummy and caressed her hair
"There you are!"
"Hm?"
A boy that Takeru never saw before stood in front of his line of sight
"... Who are you?"
"... I'm the one who should be asking you"
Mitsuto asked Takeru so, as seeing him with a single red streak of hair near his left black eye that was slightly longer than the rest of his very dark brown hair, a hazel right eye as he wore a pair of old and nerdy looking glasses. Way different than what Mitsuto saw him yesterday
"Anyway, I came here to ask Nanami-san to break up with you-"
"Fuck off"
Takeru said so with a smile
"Do you know who I am?"
"And I said fuck off" *Smiling*
Then Mitsuto made an intimidating condescending face, to which Takeru answering by making his own intimidating condescending face, but differently from Mitsuto, the fact that Takeru had Yuriko soundly asleep on his lap as he petted her tummy and hair, didn't make him look intimidating at all
"..." But it was enough to make Mitsuto feel jealous of Takeru's privilege
(A/N Notes: The new not-love rival father is an idiot just like him)
