Chisa, therere so many things I want to say to you.

Ahaha, I wonder what that could be?

She was grinning widely in front of him, while he was clutching his head in his hands. It was already the last day of Mays Golden Week, and tomorrow school would start again as usual.

He had planned to spend his last day off peacefully by himself, but at the last minute, some visitors unexpectedly showed up. It was Chisa and one other person.

Are we being a bother to you, Ryuichi-kun?

It was Satsuki, and she was currently looking up at Ryuichi with a despondent look on her face. It wasnt very unusual for Chisa to come to his place, but he hadnt expected her to bring Satsuki along.

Sure, she had asked him if she would see him again at the club, but he wouldve never expected that this was how theyd meet again: here, in his own home, even though theyd only just met the other day.

Oh, come on, Ryuichi, whats the big deal? Dont you think its nice to have the three of us together like this?

You do know this ismyplace, right?

You do know this is

my

place, right?

Even though it wasnt her home, she had already popped open a can of beer and had even gotten a little drunk. Satsuki was also drinking some small sips of beer, but she wasnt as drunk as Chisa. Although shed been brought here by her, she seemed a little apologetic and reserved.

Sigh.Fine, Im only making an exception for today, got it?

Sigh.

Fine, Im only making an exception for today, got it?

Got it. Ill be coming back sometime soon, kay?

It seemed that at this point, anything he said would just go in her left ear and out the right. Well, that being said, however, Ryuichi wasnt going to keep complaining to them now that theyd occupied his room and drank his alcohol. He would just have them make it up to him with something else.

Alright, Ill have you pay me back with your body later.

Sure. Ive been wanting to have some fun with you anyways.

Pffft?!

Hearing this exchange, Satsuki spit out the beer in her mouth. She stopped herself short of spewing it all out on the floor by covering her mouth with her hand at the last second, but now she was the one in a pinch as some drops of beer started coming out of her nose.

Ryuichi wordlessly handed her a piece of tissue. No lady would ever want to be seen like that, and even he knew this as well as he was trying to be considerate of her.

T-Thank you sho much.

Dont mention it.

Seeing her pinching her nose with the tissue convinced him once more that she was just as adorable as a small animal. Her eyes were hidden by her hair, giving her a gloomy impression as always, but she had more than enough beauty and a stunning figure to compensate for this.

Youre such a cute girl too, Satsuki.

Fueeh?!

The voice she made whenever she was surprised sounded ridiculous, but insanely cute. If he had been his previous self, he would have attacked her as soon as she came to his house; he would have corrupted her body and soul with the techniques he had cultivated.

However, the current him had no intentions of having relations with her as long as she had no intentions of having relations with him. Well, this was how it normally went; the Ryuichi of the past was just that abnormal.

I know, right? You have such a cute face, yet youre hiding it with those bangs of yours. Its really a shame.

Thatswellbecause Im too shy.

Holding her beer can with both her hands, she shrank back even further.

Yeah, you could say that.

Umm!

Satsuki suddenly raised her voice. Ryuichi and Chisa both looked at her with surprised faces. Her face turned even redder than before, she said:

If youre seeing lots of women, then adding me to the count shouldnt be a problem, right?

Wow.

He laughed at her very straightforward words and wondered why that had been the only sentence she could utter clearly without stuttering.

I really do attract the strangest of women, huh.

And with that, he stole her lips.

Afterwards, there were three naked people on the futon. Ryuichis muscular torso and the two womens seductive bodies were completely in the open. This scene was exactly the kind of paradise that all men desired, and Ryuichi was at the center of it.

How was it, Satsuki?

It was incredible. Was I really loud?

Anxious, she asked this question and was met with nods from Ryuichi and Chisa. She immediately looked as if she was going to cry, and instead of hiding her face using the futonshe hid her face by hugging Ryuichis chest tightly.

Fufu, looks like youre head over heels for Ryuichi too now, huh, Satsuki?

Yes. Im head over heels for him.

Satsuki looked up at him with an intoxicated look in her eyes. Her bangs had been pulled up with a hairpin, so her beauty was on full display in its unadulterated form; if she showed her face now to a man at her university, they would definitely mistake her for someone else.

Dont show that face to anybody else, got it?

Got it.

Frankly speaking, it was unusual for them to have a sexual relationship with each other in such a short period of time, but ultimately, Ryuichi was still Ryuichi. He didnt think much of it, and since both parties agreed that this was normal, there was nothing to really worry about.

Im gonna take a shower.

With nothing but a change of clothes, Chisa headed for the bathroom.

Ryuichi-kun.

Sheesh, when youre like this, it almost seems like youre the younger one.

Watching her rub her cheek against his chest, she really looked like a small animal. Now then, although they were right in the middle of their pillow talk session, there was a question hed wanted to ask her for a while.

It was about the feeling of discomfort hed felt before, a doubt thatd always lingered in the back of his mind.

Hey, Satsuki, do you have a younger brother?

I do. Hes the same age as you Is there something wrong?

So I was right all along.Ryuichi let out a sigh. There was a boy in his class whose last name was Shirasagi, and he was a boy who often hung out with Sohei. He was also one of the boys that hed met in the city while he was with Shizuna in disguise.

So I was right all along.

Ryuichi let out a sigh. There was a boy in his class whose last name was Shirasagi, and he was a boy who often hung out with Sohei. He was also one of the boys that hed met in the city while he was with Shizuna in disguise.

By the way, his name is Akira. Oh, come to think of it, isnt he in the same high school as you, Ryuichi-kun?

So thats the connection, huh.

It seemed that Ryuichis guess had been spot on. There was one more memory of his that was bothering himbut he couldnt quite put his finger on it.
