Chapter 91 - Winter is Coming

A boy and a girl walking side by side on their way to the school. Both of them wearing their winter school uniform since the weather started to get chilly.

Anyone who see them can guess the girl has a feeling for the boy, or maybe they are a new couple since the girl always shyly trying to reach the boy's hand beside her but always pull it again before they're touched.

Ryou who already understands her intention, trying to act like he know nothing. He's smiling at Honami's action.

'She is so cute isn't she?' he thought.

Sometimes her hand trying to reach his, but when they're about touching each other, she pulls her hand again. She did that a few times before Ryou finally put an end to her cute act.

When Honami tried to pull her hand again, she could feel someone grab her hand and make her a little bit shocked.

"How many times are you trying to grab my hand?"

Realizing that Ryou actually know her intention from the beginning make her embarrassed. She lower her head, a little blush appear on her face.

"How long you realized it?"

"Um... since the beginning of course."

She knew very well her new boyfriend habit, he always like teasing people. Now, they're officially a couple, she knew she will be the one who will be teased more.

Honami raise her head and face Ryou.

"Then, why didn't you say or do anything?"

"It's because you're so cute when you trying so hard. I can't help but let you do that." He said while grinning at her.

"Mou... Ryou, can you spare me once please."

"Nope, never."

He said as he ruffled her hair.

This time, Ryou grab her hand and smiled at her.

"Let's go, I don't want to be late."

She nod at him while thinking, 'How's our friends reaction when they know we're a couple now.'

..

Before reaching their school, Ryou let Honami's hand off.

Both of them then enter the class together, and their friends gaze turned to them.

"Morning guys." Ryou greets them.

"Morning Ryou, Ichinose-san."

"Yo Ryou, Ichinose."

"What a lovey-dovey morning from the new couple." Ringo said to them.

Honami was shocked and embarrassed at the same time.

"H... how did you know Ringo-chan?"

"Huh? We're not that dense not realize that atmosphere around you." Ryuji replied

"Well, after what's going on before, I knew sooner or later you both will be a couple. Congratulation." Ringo added

"Congrats Honami-chan, Ryou." Fumino said to both of them.

"T... Thanks, Ringo-chan, Fumino-chan, and Ryuji-kun."

She said as she smiled at them.

But, a few boys didn't easily accept that.

"Thanks for the advice Ryota, it's a good advice to soak myself in cold water to increase my endurance."

"Guhhh... dammit. That's not my intention!" Ryota was defeated on his first try.

"Don't worry Ryota, we're behind you. Let's plan for our revenge to that monster later!"

Ao said to his friends with a burning spirit.

"Yeah, let's make him suffer!"

"Riajuu, just wait for our revenge!"

The boys group looking at Ryou with jealousy.

"Feel free to come at me, I'll gladly waiting for you. Hehehe..." Ryou replied with an evil smile on his face.

The boys group suddenly felt a shiver run down on their spine looking at his smile.

"But man, you're really moving fast on Honami huh...?"

"Well, what can I do. The moment came at the right time."

"I thought you will hurt her like you did to the other girls." Ryuji mocking his friend.

"Nope, I'll try as hard as I can to not hurt her."

Since Honami's seat is in front of Ryou, of course, she heard what the boys behind her talking about. She could feel her cheek warming up.

"Etto... Ryou, Ryuji-kun. I can hear you clearly you know?" she said to them.

"Hm? What's the problem Honami? You're my girlfriend now, is it wrong if I said that? Or... you didn't want me to do that?"

"Nooo... no! That's not what I meant. Of course, you're allowed."

"Oh really? Am I allowed?" Ryou said with a teasing voice.

"What am I allowed to do to you Honami?" He grinned at her.

"To... wait! W... wait, Ryou! N... noo... wait, no! That's not what I mean!" Realizing what she's going to say, she got embarrassed and stuttered.

"Hahahaha..." Ryou laughing with a satisfied expression.

*SMACK*

Suddenly, a book flying to his head from the right side.

"Ouch... Hey Ringo, what was that for!"

"Shut up. You're making Honami-chan embarrassed. Don't worry Honami-chan, if this monster does something to you or even hurt you, your friends always here for you."

"My condolence for you Honami-san."

"Honami-chan, be strong!"
