1852 A Chance Taken

With Chii’s enthusiasm shooting up to its maximum with my presence, we immediately worked on setting up their tent. The same with the previous groups, they’re stuck with propping it up. If they got careless at handling it, the sheet could tear apart. That’s why, everyone was being very cautious when they reached this point.

Boys were reckless in nature so few of them considered the risk. They're just too lucky that none seemed to break the tent supplied to them. Girls, on the other hand, were mostly meticulous.

If they need clarification, they'd rather get assistance from someone who knows how to do it better.

That's the reason why my assistance was welcomed by the others.

Getting close to me was just a plus.

Ah. Right. As another comparison, unlike boys, it's quite rare for girls to be deluded just because a guy was kind to them.

Those three groups of girls that I helped most likely wouldn't even hope or think that I would be interested in them unless I explicitly showed it with my actions. Our interaction this time was simply me catering to them.

If there's one thing that could be said to be the same between the two genders, it should be the tendency to become more interested in someone they already had an inkling of interest after a positive encounter or interaction.

With that said, those girls might not have hoped for me to fall for or be interested in them but their interest in me after the assistance I provided as well as how welcoming I was to their approach most likely deepened. I won't be surprised if my name is brought up if they are asked who they are crushing on someday.

Of course, at that point, it’s already up to them whether they want to pursue that interest or just look at me from afar. Eimi chose the latter at first but when she encountered me again a few weeks after we graduated middle school, she picked the former. Her gamble paid off. I am now just as in love with her.

Anyway, let’s return to the present.

With Shiina keeping her distance while I helped Chii's group, my patience which was already thin to begin with finally ran out. Soon, I found myself naturally drawing close to either of my two girls within the group.

When I picked up the tube, I intentionally closed in on Hana and sneakily held her in my arms. Although she liked it, she also panicked a little considering we were out in the open. That’s only for a moment, though.

The girl’s golden pupil peeked out and seemingly became like a dazzling gem as it shone with delight. She slipped back to her initial forthcoming personality when it came to expressing her desire for me.

She leaned closer and enticingly whispered, “Should I take this as you flirting with me, Ruki?”

“No? I’m not flirting with you. I’m simply taking my chances to hold my girl. I thought we’re already through this?”

“Yes, we did. However, have you forgotten? I said I wouldn’t give up on stealing you by making you fall for me harder. This is me taking the same opportunity as you.”

As Hana replied like that, I could feel her arms settling on my back. With her head firmly settled on my chest, she’s now enjoying this stolen moment away from the current situation.

Eventually, she lifted her head and parted her lips open. Since we could be caught at any moment, hesitation never rose in my head as I captured her lips. Using the interior of the tent as a cover, Hana and I shared that blissful moment, fulfilling our desire for each other.

It was short-lived though.

Not even a minute later, An-rin, who probably noticed that I was slow at getting back, called us out.

Hana and I naturally separated from each other. However, upon checking the gyaru's reaction, I saw her amusement at our audacious attempt to flirt even while under observation.

When I walked past her, I pressed a finger to my lips.

I saw her meaningful grin as she nodded before I heard her soft voice from behind, “Give our Chii some love too, Onoda-shi.”

I could’ve replied ‘I will’ if not for finding Chii’s expectant eyes following my every move.

“Sorry, I intentionally got distracted,” I said as I closed in on her.

“Don’t apologize, idiot Kii,” Chii pouted as she reached for my cheek. At the same time as she pinched it, she continued, “I’m expecting to be given the same treatment by you. You will, right? Then, let’s finish this quickly and head inside.”

Without waiting for my reply, the girl grabbed the tube from my hand and had me assist her in the finishing touches of their tent. Hana and An-rin went to hammer the foundations while Kushii held the tent on the other side.

As soon as we finished propping it up, Chii walked towards its entrance. I followed after her.

However, my impatience got the best of me again. We have yet to enter it to pretend to check each corner but I already pounced on Chii, hugging the girl from behind.

Chii didn’t even resist that. Instead, she allowed herself to be caught in my embrace. Turning to face me, she sweetly giggled, “Naughty Kii.”

This time, we were obviously caught right away. Kushii, who was just a few steps away from us, faked a cough.

And Shiina who's watching closely was shaking her head at my impulsiveness.

But well, can they blame us? We finally got this chance. It’s a way to let it pass.

Chii put on an embarrassed smile as she apologetically looked at her friend.

Kushii shook her head but then glared at me as though she was saying it was my fault all along.

She’s not wrong though. I was the impatient one who couldn’t wait for a few seconds to get us out of the public eye.

“Let’s go in, Kii.” Chii soon whispered. Without getting out of my embrace, she dragged me into the tent.

The tent was taller than normal but even if it’s like that, the ceiling only reached my neck. Due to that, the two of us bent our knees a little to get inside. Not a second later, our knees touched the ground as we crawled forward.

Naturally, I let go of her temporarily, letting her settle down inside before crawling my way to her.

While acting like she was checking the corner of the tent and measuring its interior, she received me in her embrace and our lips naturally got drawn to each other.

There’s no need for words anymore. The same with Hana, Chii and I just let ourselves lose against our desire for each other. Chii with her inherent clumsiness fumbled a few times and almost bit my tongue. But then once she let go of the other useless thoughts in her head, she soon showed the experience that she accumulated from the kisses we shared back then and in this present.

Of course, since the tent wasn’t fully stabilized yet, we had to be careful not to put too much pressure on the side. I hooked my arm to her back, supporting her upper body.

Then Chii responded by slowly sliding down, allowing herself to lie on the surface.

My arm became her pillow as I followed her lips down which ended up with my body hovering above her.

With her ponytail getting in the way, I removed the band holding it, allowing her hair to sprawl freely beneath her.

Although she still looked like a gyaru like this, her charm went up several levels. She couldn’t really get away from being a natural beauty.

Fueled by more enthusiasm by admiring my lovely Chii’s beauty, our lips’ connection soon resumed and we once again dipped our heads into our desire.

A minute or two later, we were brought back to reality when suddenly, a commotion started outside. It was at a distance, or specifically in the direction of the entrance to this area. But with the girls reacting to whoever arrived, the effect gradually reached our position.

Yeah. What bad timing. Someone arrived and it’s probably not an ally. Either our teachers or their professors who are going to observe and maybe supervise the activity…
