My Cool and Straightforward Girlfriend Won't Let Me Sleep Today Either - Chapter 5

Episode 5: Overcoming The Wall Of Restraint With 4th Year Girlfriend

It was ten days after the summer vacation had started.

Around 6pm, Natsuki came to my apartment.

“I’m here.”

“What’s up today?”

“A present.”

Natsuki took out onigiri and a pack of tea from her bag.

“Why something like this?”

“I got the leftovers from lunch.”

“Ah, I see.”

I remembered there was a presentation at the university we attend for high school students today.

Natsuki said she was going to help out with that.

So I guess she got some leftover rice balls and tea for lunch that the school must have prepared for her.

“You don’t want it?”

“It’s not like that, it saves meal expenses and is helpful.”

As I stored the onigiri and tea that came out of Natsuki’s bag in the refrigerator, Natsuki started talking to me about today’s events from behind.

“Seeing the high school students in their uniforms at the presentation made me nostalgic… It made me wonder if I was like that too.”

“It’s been over a year since we stopped wearing uniforms.”

“If I wear one now, it’ll be tight…”

I imagined Natsuki wearing her uniform now. Her skin still had its youthful glow, and her face hadn’t aged much. I feel like even now, wearing a school uniform would still look good on her.

“Why not try wearing it?”

“…I absolutely hate it though?”

Natsuki looked at me with slightly angry eyes.

Ah, I see… When Natsuki said it would be tight, she meant in terms of size, not visually?

“Well~, Natsuki still looks youthful, so wearing a uniform wouldn’t be strange.”

I didn’t mean to tease her about whether she’s really gained weight by suggesting she try it on, okay? I made sure to convey that clearly.

Phew, that was close. I almost upset Natsuki, who’s concerned about gaining weight.

As I breathed a sigh of relief, Natsuki nailed me with a remark.

“Even if you ask, I won’t wear it.”

I actually felt disappointed since I wanted Natsumi to wear the uniform. But I know.

Stubborn Natsuki can be surprisingly easy to persuade.

With a slightly disappointed look, I gave her a little sermon.

“To be honest, you’ll probably only be fine wearing it for another year…”

“Huh?”

“I mean, You’re only a second-year university student, but when you become a third-year, it’s not about size anymore, it’s about the visual aspect. By then, wearing the uniform would feel really tight! I thought about it like that.”

“Oh, right, Minato has just a year left.”

Natsuki poked my cheek with her finger.

Yes, compared to when I was a high school senior, my face has visibly aged. While touching my face, Natsuki continued.

“I might want to see Minato in his uniform while he’s still cute…”

Gotcha, you fell for it, you fool.

“Oh, if you’re willing to wear it too, I’m fine with it.”

“No way. Even if the size fits, visually it’ll probably be too much.”

“Well, now that you mention it, it makes me embarrassed to wear it too…”

“…I see.”

Natsuki looked a bit disappointed.

Yes, Natsuki knows that my cuteness has been fading away over the past year.

She’s noticed how my beard has been getting thicker and has even gone as far as giving me “facial lotion” to help with the shaving marks and skin irritation.

“Well, maybe I’ll try wearing it before it completely doesn’t suit me anymore…”

“You don’t have to force yourself, you know?”

“No, no, it’d be a waste to miss this opportunity. I know that once I wear the uniform for just a bit longer, it’ll feel more like cosplay.”

“Well… yeah…”

Wearing the uniform now is the best option.

I expressed such a positive thought and pushed the idea that not wearing it now is a waste, rather than being embarrassing. Alright, that should be enough setup. Now, let’s mention what she rejected earlier.

“So, I’ll wear it too. How about you, Natsuki?”

“Well, before it no longer fits, it might be nice to enjoy wearing clothes that suit me…”

Her wording was a bit roundabout, but I think she’s okay with wearing the uniform.

Yep, my girlfriend is easy to handle.

Is it getting to the point where I should worry about her being scammed by a scammer?

※

The next day, when I mentioned wanting to see Natsumi in her uniform, she brought a larger-than-usual bag and came to my room to play.

“It’s a big bag.”

I said carelessly, and Natsuki gave me a bewildered look.

“It’s because of Minato.”

“Huh? Wait, could it be… Is the uniform there?”

I mentioned wanting to see her in her school uniform, almost as a joke, thinking it might easily be forgotten.

But to actually show me the uniform was surprising.

“Oh, was the wanting to see it a joke?”

“No, I really want to see it. So, is the size okay?”

“It was a bit tight, but I managed.”

“Well, that’s good.”

“……” “……”

The conversation ended, and Natsuki and I ended up staring at each other in silence.

In the silence, I cautiously said to Natsuki.

“So, when are you going to wear it?”

“I’ll change into it now.”

It seems like she’ll change into it right away.

Normally, she wouldn’t care about my gaze and would boldly change in front of me.

“I’m getting a bit excited…”

The long-awaited sight of Natsuki in her school uniform.

Now that she’s graduated from high school, she wears clothes she has no reason to wear again, satisfying her hobbies and preferences.

Needless to say, it is immoral and sensual.

And then, about four minutes passed since Natsuki disappeared.

“…Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Saying that, Natsuki appeared from the corridor, wearing a blazer uniform.

Moreover, she was wearing knee-high socks, which she often wore to school.

It had been about a year and four months since I last saw Natsuki in her uniform.

I couldn’t hide my excitement at seeing Natsuki in her uniform again after such a long time.

“It looks nice, really nice…”

“…Pervert.”

Feeling embarrassed at being praised, Natsuki called me a pervert.

But that only fueled my excitement.

And then I realized.

This excitement is something that only Natsuki, who I’ve been with for four years, can bring out.

“When I saw you before, it wasn’t cosplay… But now, it’s nothing but cosplay, isn’t it…”

“Don’t call it cosplay. It’s embarrassing!”

Natsuki kicked me with her foot as I sat on the floor.

“Hey, don’t kick me for real!”

Despite saying I wanted her to stop, I couldn’t deny that, given the situation, being kicked by Natsumi wasn’t all that bad. I even started to wonder if I was a pervert… But then I realized there was someone even more messed up than me.

“Pfft, haa, haa…”

Natsuki, slightly out of breath, stepped on me with a somewhat delighted expression.

She might seem cool and straightforward on the surface, always acting within the bounds of common sense, even when showing a bit of a sadistic side. But we’ve been together for four years. And what that means is that we’ve transcended the need for restraint.

“Pervert… It’s unbelievable that you’d be happy seeing your girlfriend in her school uniform…”

Overcoming the restraint of our fourth year together, Natsuki ground her foot into my head. And yet, she smiled dangerously.
