Chapter 2297: Helping Out (2)



I nodded and patted her head dotingly, "Don't worry, I've got it covered. You can trust me, senpai. Shall I escort you back?"

"N-no... It seems you still have some business here so, I'll just... leave you to it." Yuika- senpai mumbled, her grip on my hand loosening as she made to stand up.

"Hmm... Nope. I'll walk you outside. It's fine, right, sensei?" I said as I tightened my grip on her hand before turning to Hayashi-sensei.

"Go ahead," Hayashi-sensei waved us off with a knowing smile. "Just remember, Onoda-kun, no funny business. Don't let me find you kissing someone in the hallway again."

This woman. Did she have to bring that up? Look at how it made Yuika-senpai flustered... It did happen with Marika last time so, I guess... her warning was deserved.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"I'll keep that in mind, sensei," I said with a playful smirk while waving her off. I then turned to Yuika-senpai who couldn't look at me straight, guiding her to the door.

As soon as we exited Hayashi-sensei's office, Yuika-senpai let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Onoda-kun, you're a lifesaver,"

"Not really. But I'm always here to help. I'm glad you came to me for this. Now, shall we go?"

"Un..." She nodded reluctantly. I could tell Hayashi-sensei's words somewhat affected her. She was probably imagining me kissing someone in this hallway. But for her sake, I tried to keep myself in check.

Or so, that's the plan. But before we could reach the stairs, Yuika-senpai turned to me and tiptoed, placing her hand on my shoulder.

"Onoda-kun. Can you keep a secret?" she whispered, looking around nervously as if afraid someone would overhear.

I leaned down slightly, "Of course, senpai. What's on your mind?"

Her eyes searched mine for a moment before she spoke, "I... I've never been kissed before."

I blinked, surprised by her sudden confession. "Oh?" I tried to keep my voice neutral, not wanting to make her feel any more embarrassed than she already was. "Is there a particular reason why you're telling me this now?"

Yuika-senpai's cheeks turned a brighter shade of pink as she whispered, "I just... I just wanted you to know. In case you were wondering why I was so nervous earlier."

"I see. I thought you were going to ask me to give you a demonstration." I teased her gently, trying to ease the tension.

Yuika-senpai's eyes widened before she realized what I meant and smacked my arm playfully, "Onoda-kun, you're terrible!"

"Sorry, you have a shameless junior." I chuckled at her reaction, feeling the warmth of her hand on my arm. "But don't worry, I'll make sure to respect your boundaries."

See that? Then, she also quickly reddened as though it was simply a slip of her tongue.

But well, since she's doing it like this, who am I to turn her down?

Without a word, I leaned in as I caught her lips once more.

This time, it was more than gentle. I pressed my lips with an intensity filled with a quiet passion. It's my silent declaration of the support and comfort she's seeking.

Without pushing me away, Yuika-senpai's arms moved around my neck as she melted into my embrace while savoring the kiss as her body leaned against mine for balance.

I opted not to use my tongue but hers came knocking. So, I welcomed her in as our kiss grew deeper. With this, our soft gasps for breath intertwined in the empty hallway.

It was a moment of pure intimacy, hidden from the prying eyes of the school. Gradually, I pushed her back against the wall of the hallway, my hands moving up to cradle her face, exploring the entirety of her lips, giving her an experience she wouldn't forget. Her body responded to my touch as her breaths became more erratic. I could feel the rapid beating of her heart against my chest, matching the rhythm of my own.

"Onoda-kun, you're so gentle and warm," She breathlessly whispered as our lips parted. Her eyes stared straight at me with her face crimson red.

Her gaze was a gentle storm of emotions, a mix of surprise, satisfaction, embarrassment and affection.

I stepped closer, my thumbs tenderly stroking her cheeks as I whispered, "You deserve all the comfort in the world, senpai. And I'm more than happy to provide it. Now, we really need to get out of her before we get caught."

"Y-you're right." Yuika-senpai nodded as she touched her lips, feeling the lingering warmth

of our kiss

We shared a meaningful smile before walking down the stairs, her hand still locked in mine.

I honestly never expected things to turn out like this but there was no rewind button. It

happened.

I wonder what Minori-senpai would say if she found out that I'd taken Yuika-senpai's first

kiss.

Uh. I better set that aside for later. For now, my attention was on this girl.

Since she didn't want me to escort her back to the School Building, I just watched over her until she disappeared from my vision once we were out of the Administration Building. Even from afar, I could see her cheeks remained a charming shade of pink. Will she be alright?
