Chapter 1468 With Ryouko-San

In the end, with all of them expressing their intent to meet the letter sender, I arrived at a decision to let one of them go while I tailed them. But first… I told them that I would scout later during my patrol as the Disciplinary Officer.

I would intentionally walk toward the location of the storage room on the 3rd floor of the School Building without actually going inside it.

That way, anyone who would be around that area during that time would be the suspected sender.

Upon hearing that plan of mine, everyone agreed.

Well, that didn't end there. I also thought of consulting Haruko and the others, that way, they wouldn't feel left out since this letter still had the possibility of being a trap against me. It's a lot better to hear everyone's sentiment rather than impulsively do something.

Ten minutes before the end of lunch break, after another round of doting my girls which escalated to a more intimate moment, leaving most of them panting for breath, I wiped the sweat and other bodily fluids off their bodies before excusing myself from the room.

It's time to meet up with Eguchi-sensei and act on my role as her Student Assistant, after all.

Ah. No. I changed into my PE uniform first which the girls helped me put on before they started preparing for it themselves. Like the previous times, even if it's just a lecture, Eguchi-sensei would still get everyone to do some set exercises first. That's why being in a PE uniform was still needed.

Well, with the girls a little exhausted because of me, I told them to take a rest first and I'll join them later in the Gymnasium.

With that, I continued to my destination.

As someone who was already close to being a regular at the Administration Building, the teachers that I ran into seldom pay attention to me anymore unlike before when I would always be called Shio's pet or Eguchi-sensei's errand boy.

Yeah. They also tagged me with something else with Eguchi-sensei. Errand boy was a little tamed compared to a Pet. And most likely, they're afraid to offend the woman. They're unaware of how much of a fluff she is internally, after all.

Anyway, since it's my Shio's 'workplace', I also kept an ear out for whatever happens inside the faculty room. Thankfully, despite knowing Shio's divorce, none of them brought up that bastard again. And while it's kind of a kept secret, most teachers already became aware of his misdeeds and how he's on the run from the authorities. Good for them to know when to step back, right?

"Sensei, I'm here," I said after knocking twice on the door.

A moment later, Eguchi-sensei's faint voice could be heard from inside, telling me to enter.

I prepared myself in case Orimura-sensei was there before twisting the knob and pushing the door open.

Well, she's not inside. Eguchi-sensei was already sitting on the sofa, arranging papers where her lecture for today was written. She's rereading them so that she wouldn't fumble during it.

Closing in on her position, I didn't hesitate to sit next to her. And that actually made the woman flash a smile before turning her head to me.

Being this close to her again, I admit that the urge to just push her down or hold her was nagging me. Good thing that I already reinforced my self-control. Furthermore, this wasn't the time to flirt with her.

"What do you think, Onoda-kun? Wanna do the lecture with me?" Eguchi-sensei asked as she pointed at the spread-out papers on the coffee table.

I tried reading the topmost one and… honestly, I doubt I would be able to digest the knowledge right away and discuss it in front of everyone.

"Does sensei need my help with it?" Instead of rejecting her right away, I raised a question to probe what was really on her mind.

For sure, a part of her just wanted me to be as close to her as possible while another was that of an educator, wanting me to excel in her class.

Thinking about it, I heard from Aya, Satsuki, and Sakuma earlier that when they passed by the school gate, Eguchi-sensei who was standing guard there told them that she was going to give the three their rewards for the last activity during class today.

As for my reward… I already got it two days ago.

"I'll be honest, Onoda-kun… The lecture is easy… This is just me selfishly thinking of ways to keep you close to me."

There she goes… Openly admitting that and also blushing because of it.

When she tried covering her face, my body moved unconsciously, preventing her from doing that. And for the next few seconds, I simply watched Eguchi-sensei's exquisite face turn crimson.

"Alright then. I'll stand close to you during the lecture and help you with this lecture. Only halfway though, will that be fine, sensei?"

As I tried to prevent my smile from stretching out into a grin, I gave Eguchi-sensei a condition. Well, it's not like I would be troubled by standing with her there. Once that's done, I could then join my girls at the back. It's a win-win for all of us.

"Un. That's more than enough…" Eguchi-sensei nodded continuously. She's really acting more like a maiden-in-love rather than our strict and military-like PE teacher. And all of this was exclusive to me.

With that decided, Eguchi-sensei spent a few minutes telling me the key points of the lesson, most likely to have me answer with it when she needed an engagement in class. And while that was happening, slowly and perhaps, unconsciously, the distance between us closed.

By the time she finished with it, my arm was already stretched from her back and hooked on her sides. Our cheeks were only centimeters away from touching. When the two of us turned our heads to each other, a small nudge would be enough to close that distance.

"Onoda-kun…" With her voice sounding a little dreamy, Eguchi-sensei called out my name at the same time as she dropped her hands on top of mine.

I turned that hand over and opened my palm, interlocking our fingers.

"Ryouko-san?" Switching to calling her by that name, Eguchi-sensei didn't mind it and maybe she expected me to do so. She nodded her head before her eyes heatedly focused on my lips.

But then, she quickly closed her eyes and shook her head before saying, "I'm losing control again, right?"

"Not really. I'm actually the one who lost control first… But then again, you allowed me to hold you this close so… it's a tie?" I slightly tightened my grip on her side which immediately made Eguchi-sensei quiver from being tickled a little.

Her eyebrows then slanted as she partly rebuked and partly praised me. "You're right. My Student Assistant is this naughty. But Onoda-kun, have you noticed? I'm not shaking anymore. If it's you, I feel like I will never be uncomfortable anymore."

"I'm glad to hear that, Ryouko-san. But we still haven't tested if the help I provided you last time is effective."

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ "Un. I'm afraid it will be hard to test it. My male colleagues are always zoned off by my presence. They knew I was uncomfortable around them, after all. Also… I will never let anyone hold me like you did." Upon saying that, Eguchi-sensei ashamedly lowered her head before inching even closer. And this time, she copied me and stretched her other arm out to my back, pulling us closer to each other.

"I see. Then there's no need to test it right away… Instead, should I hold you like that again, Ryouko-san? I'll make you so used to it that the memory about that incident will never resurface again."

As I suggested that, I nudged her head with my own to have her look at me. And even before she could answer, I pushed my head in, giving her lips a swift kiss.

However, before I could retreat, Eguchi-sensei chased after my lips, locking us in a more intimate exchange. She then murmured breathlessly, "Yes, please. Onoda-kun."

As our lips once again locked in, Eguchi-sensei slowly moved from my side to occupy the space between my legs. Naturally, I followed up on that and held her the same way as before. A tight embrace while my hand caresses her body.

With this, our time together gradually reached an end. And as though it's a miracle or perhaps she timed her entrance, Orimura-sensei only showed up in the room when Eguchi-sensei and I already went back to our original position. Even if she looked at us with slight suspicion, she couldn't say anything because there was no evidence in sight.
