Chapter 45
Yuriko's classroom was silent as everyone did their best to answer the question in their tests, to be more specific it was the last test of their midterms. Meaning that everyone was on their toes as they got ever close to their awaiting freedom
And Yuriko was the same, but for a slightly different reason, as could be seen by her lightly tapping one of her feet on the floor as she looked outside, since she had already finished answering the test
-
Meanwhile
-
"..."
Takeru was looking at his test sheet with the face of someone who was struggling a lot, and that was reasonable since he was bad at math, and it was only made worse because he had forgotten which formula he was supposed to use
"... ... ..." <...> *Crunching face up in anger at himself*
And then his mind decided to go blank again
-
Some time later
-
*Bell ringing*
The school bell had just rang signaling that lessons had ended, or in this case, that the maximum time limit for the tests had ended, so everyone that was still doing their tests had to stop their hands and wait for the teacher to take their tests away
And that was exactly what Takeru was doing, as he had barely managed to finish answering the last question on time. When the teacher finished retrieving everyone's tests, he allowed them to leave which they all did. Takeru who had just passed through the door noticed a shadow in front of him, but it was too late...
"Takeru!~"
Yuriko tightly hugged him, burying his face in her chest, just like how she usually would, hadn't it been for the fact that Takeru was desperately tapping her on the back, since her hug was tighter than usual. To his luck, Yuriko noticed it so she loosened up her hug
"Ah! Sorry, sorry, Takeru. I just missed doing this to you"
"I-It's fine"
"That's good to hear, shall we go home then?"
"Sure... ... ... So?... Aren't you going to let go of me, so that we can get going?"
"Nope! Today, I won't let go of you under any circumstances"
"..."
Hearing Yuriko say that, Takeru couldn't help but just make a troubled face, as she hugged him from behind with a big smile on her face, without any other option Takeru just sighed and gave up resisting. The two then made their way back to their apartments, with Yuriko never once letting go of Takeru as she had said so
-
Some time later
-
"We're back"
"Yes, we are"
Takeru had just finished closing and locking his front door when he said that and went to take off his shoes
"... Yuriko, aren't you going to let go of me?"
"Nope, I said I won't be letting go of you today"
"Haa... Fine, do as you wish... Hm? HUH?!"
Then before he could do anything, Yuriko began dragging him to his bedroom, and soon after, Yuriko threw him on his tatami as she pinned him in place, way more aggressively than she already was
"Erm... Y-Yuriko?"
"This is payback for not letting me tease you for these past few days, Takkun"
Yuriko then gave Takeru a very passionate kiss on his lips as he flailed his arms in protest, which Yuriko stopped and then held both of his wrists with only one hand. It was only after 3 long minutes of kissing him, Yuriko separated her lips from his, Takeru glared at Yuriko with an angry and embarrassed expression, showing that his tsundere side was kicking in, while Yuriko...
"Fufu..."
She undid the lace holding her ponytail with her free hand and then said...
"I won't let you run away, Takkun~"
As she licked her lips as if she was looking at something really delicious in front of her, while Takeru had a despairing face as he blushed a lot
.
.
.
It was almost evening, the sun was setting down and with lights were off, making the room dimly lit with the sun's orange-ish light
"... ... ... *Slowly opens eyes* Hm?"
Then Takeru who just happened to wake up, slowly sat up and yawned. Because his brain wasn't fully awake yet, Takeru ended up staring at nothing for a few seconds, before he noticed something
"..."
Then he began tapping the floor as he searched for his phone, but instead what he felt on his hand first was some sort of fabric, he ended up picking it up and bringing it close to his face since he hadn't his glasses on him
"?"
Takeru squinted his eyes as he brought the cloth closer to him, and using the dim setting sunlight coming from the window, he was able to see that it was a black sailor summer uniform, the very one that Yuriko used
"..." *Rubs his eyes* "Hm?"
Since he was still half asleep, Takeru was taking an awful lot of time to process what he had just picked up, then as he did so he heard a very familiar voice coming from beside him
"*Yawn*... Ah, Takkun!"
"Yu... Riko?"
It was Yuriko, who also just woke, but different from him, Yuriko was quick to fully wake up. She then sat up and kissed Takeru on the lips, and only after giving Takeru a short kiss, that she notice that he was holding her school shirt, which made Yuriko show a teasing smile
"Hmm... Is there something that you want with my shirt, Takkun?"
"Huh?"
Takeru who was looking at Yuriko's face got slightly confused, and because of her words his eyes slowly drifted down, and then he saw Yuriko's plentiful assets being held by a cute light blue piece of cloth that contrasted perfectly with her white skin, which made Takeru stare at Yuriko's half-naked chest for many seconds
"... ... ..." *Nose starts bleeding* *pomf*
And just like last time, Takeru started to have a nosebleed and then passed out right after receiving too much stimulation in such a short period of time, and Yuriko also got worried about seeing Takeru pass out again. After that, Yuriko had mostly returned to her usual self around Takeru, though she remained a bit clingier than usual, and after having dinner, they slept together
-
About a week later
-
It was a Friday, the last day of the week, and also the day the students would see if their efforts paid off or not. Which caused most of them to be on their nerves, Takeru was one of the few who felt pretty calm
"Tanaka Takeru"
Then when the teacher called his name, he got up from his seat and went to retrieve his test paper, and when he looked at his score after returning to his seat, he saw that he had scored 79 points, he felt good since this was his math test, which he more often than not would pass just barely above the passing grade, so for him, 79 was pretty good
The teacher kept calling the names of his classmates, with some making a guts pose, while others had faces of those who decided to give up on life or that they were going to be in danger, which was seen the most amongst the boys. After handing out everything, the teacher began to help some of his students who came to question him about some things about the test, so there were no lessons until the school bell rang, meaning that everyone was dismissed for the day
Takeru, who had already organized all of his belongings and put them inside his bag, just got up from his seat, picked up his bag, and left the classroom. After some time, he arrived at the shoe lockers, where he began to swap into his outdoor shoes
"Takeru! Look!"
"Ah! Yuriko... Eh?"
Then as usual, Yuriko appeared shortly after to meet with him, but this time she was holding one of her test sheets in front of her, with the score in full sight to Takeru, and there he saw a perfect 100 points written on it, which made him feel a chill running down his spine
Then Yuriko, slowly turned the first test, this time... Revealing another 100 points on another test sheet, which only increased the bad feeling that Takeru was feeling now. Which only got worse as Yuriko showed another two 100 points
" "..." "
The two were silent as Yuriko had yet to reveal her last score, and the fact that she was happily smiling, only made Takeru cold sweat even more, since his worry only got worse and worse, then... Yuriko showed another 100 points as her score, a perfect score on all of her midterms tests
"I got 5 perfect scores, Takeru"
"Y-Yes, you d-did, Yuriko"
"And you remember your promise, right?"
"... ... ... Yes..."
Hearing Takeru confirm it, only made Yuriko's happy smile beam even more, while Takeru cold sweated heavily with a worried face
