Chapter 115: Surprise

Ishida-senpai was speechless as she watched me kiss Kana. Since we're in a room where Kana knew everyone, her shy nature wasn't triggered. From a simple kiss, it turned to a passionate one where we also used our tongues.

Ishida-senpai as well as the other two watched closely. I could feel Kana's feeling through this kiss, she's trembling, afraid and needed comfort. Looks like the way she ended it with that Kenji took up all her courage. Now that it's done, she needs someone to support her again. And that person should be me. I want to take her away from here but we also need to deal with the other members especially the Club President.

Kana's words to Ishida-senpai was what I didn't expect. She already told her about us but she didn't name me. With my appearance here, she decided to come clean about it.

"Onoda. Are you really here for the club or for Kana?"

That's all Ishida-senpai could ask me after our lips separated, after all, she's the President of this club. Her personal feelings aside, she also cared for the club. If I'm just here for Kana, then she'll probably not accept if I ever submitted an application.

There's a possibility that Kenji will quit the club. If that happened they will be short of a member again.

But will he really quit or stay? I don't know, what I do know is he will soon confront me about this. If not today, next week for sure.

Ishida-senpai also saw me with Yae last Sunday, I'm sure that's still in her mind but for now, she is more concerned for the club than Kana or Kenji.

Ah. But I'm not just here for Kana, I'm here for all of them, including her…

As if I could tell her that.

"To be honest, at first I tried the club because of Kana. But this time around, I'm really considering joining to help her."

My answer was still honest just that it's not the whole reason why I am here. I have to plan well on how to deal with these four girls.

So, I finally made up my mind.

I will join the Literature Club. I could visit the Book Club anytime after all. They were located at the floor below hence it will be easy for me to slip out of here to go and see Haruko, Aya and Himeko.

Kana had a peaceful look on her face as she snuggled closer to me, not minding the gazes of the other three in this room. 

I filled up the application form and gave it to Ishida-senpai. She didn't ask too many questions as if what happened earlier was something she's not concerned about.

And just like that, I joined the Literature Club.

The curious girl couldn't find the timing to ask questions and Fujii went back to what she's reading unconcerned to what had transpired. I need to talk to these two, alone. But not now, Kana was stuck to me as if she didn't want to leave my side.

I asked her about what happened and she told me how she broke it off with Kenji. He was already ignoring her for days or maybe not ignoring her, he thought she'll bounce back if he acted like that.

Then this morning, when he heard about what happened at the cafeteria yesterday, he confronted Kana.

Since they're already in that situation where Kenji was confronting her about everything and bringing up everything that he did for her, Kana gathered up her courage to tell him everything.

Including the things about me and what happened between us, but with his reaction when he opened the door earlier, he didn't know who was the 1st year who took Kana from him.

We were talking silently to not disturb the three but I guess they're all eavesdropping since when I looked around they all suddenly buried themselves on whatever that is they're doing.

After 30 minutes, I took Kana with me and bid farewell to Ishida-senpai and the other two.

With everything that happened, I couldn't leave her alone. Kenji might even be waiting for her somewhere. I don't know, it's better to be cautious since I don't know what's going on in his mind after being dumped by Kana.

I walked her to the bus station and sent her home. I watched on as she reluctantly got on the bus. She probably wanted to stay longer with me but it's best for her to rest her mind after everything that happened. I also restrained myself to bring her to an empty room.

Err... Of course, my desire for her was still fully ignited, what we did inside that Karaoke Box wasn't enough for me. But today, it's not really appropriate.

Before the bus left, I told her that I will call her later. That somehow calmed her as she smiled and waved at me.

I waited until the bus disappeared from my sight before going back to school.

This time, my destination was the Book Club.

I caught sight of Kenji as he was entering the Club Building, I don't know if he wanted to go back to the clubroom or if he even saw us leaving but at least, he didn't follow Kana. There will come a day when that guy will confront me about Kana. Even if I don't see him as a threat, since he knew my face, I have to prepare if things got out of hand.

My Pretend Dating Act with Nami and now admitting my relationship with Kana. I have to make sure not to let the two converge at one point.

Ah. I should also add the rumours circulating in Akane's school about us living together under one roof. It will be somewhat of a chaos if someone connected the dots between the three, right?

When I opened the door to the Book Club, I was met with a surprising scenery, the six reading-machines, err, members of the club were nowhere to be found. What happened?

"You're finally here, Ruki."

I heard Haruko's voice and turned to her corner and saw a more surprising scenery.

Haruko, Himeko and Aya were there. But that's not all, two more girls were with them and they're wearing a different kind of uniform, it's the uniform from Akane's school.

The two weren't a stranger to me, just looking at their faces brought me back to the time when I was trying to steal them. Imai Sena and Kaneko Otoha.

Sena still sported her short black hair that was tied into a ponytail. She never let her hair go past her shoulder to not let it be a distraction when she's training, despite being a boxer, she took great care of her very attractive face. You will only see a beauty but underneath that is a fully aggressive boxer who seldom puts her guard up.

Otoha, on the other hand, still has her long brown hair. Oftentimes, she just let it flow freely on her back, only when she's practicing Kendo will she put it up in a bun on top of her head. At first glance, one can see a demure and noble lady. She always has trouble talking to people but if there's a Shinai on her hand, you should prepare to get beaten by it.

Ah. I remembered becoming their practice partner during and after stealing them. Sena from her fellow boxer boyfriend and Otoha from her supposed fiancee who followed her to our Middle School. Now, they already broke up with them after Ria and Aoi told them that it doesn't matter anymore.

Upon seeing me, the two stood up and ran up to me with their arms wide open.

"Finally! I got to see you again, my Ruki."

Sena energetically said as she hugged and took my lips even without my permission.

"I missed you…"

Unlike Sena, Otoha only silently whispered it as she circled her arms around my waist. This girl was still like this, even after all the things we've done.

I see. Haruko chose this day to go to my house and called them here first.

"You two, I missed you too but can you let me go first?"

I asked them when Sena separated her lips from mine.

"No! A little more. You neglected us, Ruki. Give us more time to do this."

"A little more…"

Then Otoha also reservedly kissed me after seeing it freed by Sena.

I looked at Haruko and saw her amused expression as she watched the two cling to me. She's having fun seeing my troubled face.

Aya and Himeko were also looking at them, surprised at how they're acting right now. Looks like they already had a lengthy discussion and got to know each other.

Haa. I guess I'll let them do what they want for now.

I started responding to their kisses and from there, they alternately took my lips, filling in the longing they had for me.

They didn't even mention how I cruelly cut them off, especially Otoha, she cried in front of me back then and for 1 year that I haven't seen her, she grew more beautiful befitting a noble lady of a prestigious family.

Himeko might be a daughter of a rich and powerful family but Otoha came from a real noble family. Her fiancee was something prepared for her by her grandfather to establish connections to another noble family but because of me, she cut that off.

After 10 minutes of our intimate moments, they finally let me go but they both took my arms and clung to it like they're afraid I'll run away from them.

"Haruko, you didn't tell me about this."

"You silly, I wanted to surprise you. How was it, happy?"

How can I not be happy? Being pressed between two beauties, only those impotent won't be happy about this.

"Ruki, don't complain to Haruko, we also wanted to surprise you."

Sena defended Haruko.

"Uhm, right."

Otoha also asserted.

"Haa. Alright. For the sake of the two of you, I'll let this pass."

I sighed before I reached in to kiss Haruko.

I couldn't just favor these two, right?

And Haruko also knew what I will do so after kissing me, she then urged Aya and Himeko to do the same, Aya also happily kissed me while Himeko deliberated for a bit before doing the same.

Out of the five here, Himeko was the only one I couldn't call mine yet. We had just gotten our first understanding of each other this Monday, but that's still not enough to claim her as mine. I still need more alone time with her,  not like this where there's a lot of my other girls who clearly show their affection to me.

My purpose in coming here was to spend time with Aya and Himeko. Now, there's five of them here. What should I do about this?
