My Online Friends Turned Out To Be the Ultra-Beautiful Girls in My Class and They Were Yandere - 13

Chapter 13: Don’t Ever Do Something Like That Again

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Then, after a while, Haruna came back. That took a pretty long time. Did she get an upset stomach or something? The lunch had already been finished without me noticing. It was delicious. No, it wasn’t just delicious—it was unbelievably good. Honestly, calling it “delicious” might even be rude to Haruna. That was how good it was.

“…I’m back.”

“Yeah, welcome back. Are you feeling sick or something?”

“N-no, I’m fine! I just had a bit of stomach trouble. But I’m okay now!”

“I see. Good to hear. And thanks for the meal. I really appreciate you making something this good for me.”

Even after coming back, Haruna’s face was still a little red, and she kept getting overly startled at random things. Was she actually not feeling well?

“Thank you for the meal. I’m glad you liked it. It was worth all the effort.”

“So… I’ve got a question. Is there anything else we’re supposed to do?”

“Ah. U-um…”

“You didn’t plan anything else, did you? Well, I guess there’s nothing in my room anyway.”

I hadn’t really planned anything either. We’d finished eating, studying was basically already done, and my mental state had recovered. So… what now? And why was Haruna fidgeting like that? She was so cute it felt like I was going to die.

“There is… something.”

“Oh?”

“I… um… I want to try… sleeping together with Hakkun!! Is that… not okay?”

Ah—this is bad, this is bad. I feel like I’m going to cough up blood. What is wrong with this girl? She’s too cute it’s downright dangerous. That blushing face, that upward glance—this is lethal-level stuff.

“S-sleeping together?”

“Y-yeah. I wanted to hug you while sleeping… You’re not disgusted, are you? Right? I’m sorry. You’re right, it’s too much when you already said you like me. I’m gross, aren’t I? I’m sorry, I’m sorry… but please, don’t throw me away. Don’t leave me. Please don’t abandon me…”

Ah—wait. Right. I got completely overwhelmed by how cute she was, but this girl is actually pretty heavy.

“Hey, it’s fine! I’m not disgusted, okay? Sleeping together, got it. Let’s do it. I was actually getting a bit sleepy anyway.”

“R-really? Is that okay?”

“Yeah, it’s fine. I just… I’ve never done something like this with someone as cute as you, so I’m kind of nervous, I guess.”

“Hakkun can do anything to me.”

I steeled myself and lay down on the bed. Carefully, Haruna slowly got into the bed too.

W-what is this… kind of indecent atmosphere!? Stay calm, me. I’m fine. I’m fine.

“Haruna… you really like me, don’t you?”

“Yeah, I love you. Oh, but about my confession! Don’t give me your answer until I say it’s okay, alright? You’re really lucky, you know. Being loved by someone this cute.”

She said that so casually.

She likes me… huh. I feel happy, but at the same time, it’s strange. I don’t remember doing anything special to deserve this. I really don’t understand a girl’s feelings. But still… I am happy. So happy it almost feels like I’m going to get punished for it. I can’t believe my life changed this much out of nowhere.

“Yeah… I really am happy.”

“So, Hakkun… never do that again, okay? If you do it again, I’ll have to either lock you up or kill you.”

“Do what again?”

“Ah, don’t worry about it. More importantly… hug me properly, Hakkun. Like you’re squeezing the life out of me.”

“Do what again”… what does she mean? Does Haruna know me from before middle school? No, that can’t be right. There shouldn’t have been anyone like that in the photo.

And then Haruna pressed her face against my chest.

Whoa—!!! This is seriously bad! The impact is insane! So I should hug her… right? Even though she’s saying scary things… it’s okay, right?

“L-like this…?”

“Yeah. Hey, Hakkun, you’re nervous, aren’t you?”

“Of course I am. What about you?”

“I am too. Good night, Hakkun.”

“Yeah. Good night, Haruna.”

♢♢♢

I had a dream. A warm dream. It was a middle school graduation ceremony. In front of a school gate wrapped in cherry blossoms, three girls were running around, one girl was trying to calm them down, and a boy was there too.

“Mii-chan gets all the unfair advantages! I want to stand next to Hakkun too!”

“You already played a lot, Haru-chan! Mii is starving for Haa-chan energy!”

“Then I’ll just—”

“Hey, why don’t we all take a picture together? In a bigger space. Can’t I stand in the center?”

“Hey, hey, you three. You’re making Hakkun uncomfortable. And it’s almost time for photos anyway.”

In the end, the photo was taken with the three girls still causing chaos, and a mature red-haired girl standing next to the boy. I couldn’t remember anything. I couldn’t recall anything at all. But it was a warm, nostalgic dream. Had we known each other before?

♢♢♢

How long had I been asleep? Something soft brushed my cheek, and I woke up. When I opened my eyes, Haruna’s face was right in front of me. The room was bathed in orange light, and her face looked unbelievably beautiful.

Wait… that feeling just now—

“Good morning, Haruna.”

“Ah… ah…”

That suspicion turned into certainty as I saw her face turn the color of a ripe apple. A kiss. She just kissed me.

“S-sorry! I’m going home!! Sorry for disturbing you!!”

“Hey, wait, Haruna!! Wow… she’s fast…”

After a brief freeze, she sprang into action, grabbed her stuff at super speed, and thundered down the stairs. It was around 4 PM. I must’ve slept way too long. I should apologize to her later. But my doubts kept piling up. The dream, the possibility that we had met before, my missing memories, why Haruna liked me so much.

And above all, the thing Haruna said…

『Never do that again.』

What exactly did she mean by “that”?
