The Story Of How I, A Gloomy Guy, Ended Up Surrounded By the Top-Tier Beautiful Girls In Class After A Seat Change - Chapter 115

When Airi complimented me, saying I looked “cool,” I, the typical virgin who gets excited too easily, stood at the entrance, waiting for her. I held a plastic bag with some smelly banana stockings, a jar of honey, and a brush.

“So, I’ve finally become the kind of man that Airi would praise…”

(Lately, I’ve been able to talk normally with Yuria and Rui too. Maybe it’s time I graduate from being just an introverted nerd.)

Feeling like I had leveled up to an elite nerd, I stood by the sliding door with a smug look on my face. Suddenly, the door slid open with a “splash.”

“Ryota, sorry to keep you waiting!”

Airi appeared, wearing a straw hat.

Her usual twin tails were undone, and her flowing hair was smooth and shiny, rivaling even Rui’s. As the wind blew, a gentle fragrance teased my nostrils.

Countryside, natural beauty, straw hats…This is exactly the kind of situation that I love.

However, I didn’t expect to see “huge breasts” standing before me.

“What’s up, Ryota? Oh! Ryota, you’re staring at my breasts again!”

“Well, yeah, I was looking…but you’re the one who said it was okay to look last time, right?”

“Y-Yes, but! Come on, don’t you think you should at least try to hide it a little?”

“If I’ve got permission, there’s no need to hold back. That’s what being a man is about.”

“Haa…Ryota, you perv.”

Am I the only one who thinks that Airi is just as much of a perv for giving me permission? (No, Airi is definitely pretty perverted too.)

“Anyway, forget about the boobs. Let’s go catch some bugs!”

It seemed she really was putting the boobs aside.

Airi started walking briskly down the country road, and I followed her.

“So, where exactly are we catching the beetles?”

“At the village chief’s mountain!”

“The village chief’s?”

“Yeah, the village chief of this village owns the mountain behind us!”

Airi said, pointing to the back mountain. Apparently, this “back mountain” was the unnecessarily huge mountain deep in the village.

“Grandma got permission from the village chief to catch bugs there.”

“Airi’s grandma is way too prepared.”

“Well, in this village, everyone’s like family.”

Everyone is like family…huh. That’s something I can’t really relate to, considering I’ve barely ever spoken to my neighbors. I guess that’s the difference between the city and the countryside.

We continued chatting as we made our way to the entrance of the mountain path. Bathed in the light of the setting sun, we walked along the path.

“Hmmm, this tree looks good too.”

As we walked, Airi scrutinized the trees along the path, trying to decide which one to use.

It was getting late, and I didn’t want to be out after dark with the mosquitoes. I hoped she would hurry up and choose a tree.

“Hey, Airi. Trees all look the same to me…wait, huh?”

While waiting for Airi to finish choosing a tree, I heard the sound of wings from above. W-Wait, no way!

“Whoa! It’s a bee!”

I’ve always hated bees. The moment I spotted it, I instinctively tried to run away.

“Oh!”

But the mountain path was uneven, and when I moved hastily, I slipped and nearly fell forward.

“A-Airi! Move out of the way!”

“Huh?”

I shouted desperately, trying to avoid colliding with Airi, but it was too late.

Just as Airi turned around from examining the tree, I tripped and my face dove straight into her breasts, causing her to fall backward and land on her bottom.

“Ow! Wait, it…it doesn’t hurt. And what is this soft feeling…oh.”

As I tried to lift my head, I felt something soft and squishy against both of my cheeks.

“Ow…wait, Ryota!? Why!?”

What was enveloping my cheeks was Airi’s massive, squishy breasts.

Unlike the marshmallow metaphor often used in light novels, the real thing was much softer and more tender. Airi’s breasts, pressing against my face through her clothes, felt like a memory foam cushion gently holding my face in place.

B-Boobs!? This is the real feeling of boobs!? Compared to this, a boob-shaped mouse pad doesn’t even come close. I was genuinely moved by the sensation.

“Uwaaahhhh!”

“Ryota, get off me!”

“Oh, right.”

Just as I was about to shout in amazement, Airi scolded me.

“Geez! You totally jumped into my breasts on purpose!”

Airi brushed off her bottom with a clearly annoyed expression as she spoke.

“No, no, that’s not it! There was a bee flying above my head!”

“That sounds suspicious…and besides, there’s no bee.”

“I swear, it really scared me! Please believe me!”

“It’s probably because you’ve been misbehaving lately.”

Airi puffed out her cheeks and gave me a doubtful look.

(Damn it! It’s true, though!)

I had never been so frustrated with myself for my usual behavior.

“Ah, but I’m glad you’re okay, Ryota.”

“Huh?”

“It would have been bad if you got hurt, especially since you came all the way to the mountain just because I asked you to. So, I’m relieved.”

Airi smiled gently and softly brushed the dirt off my face.

“A-Airi…thank you. And sorry for suddenly pushing you down.”

“It’s fine! I just fell on my bottom, so I’m not mad at all.”

Airi…she’s seriously too kind.

“But, you know, if you do something that seems perverted like this to anyone other than me, they might hate you, so be careful, okay? Especially with Yuria, she’s scary.”

Come to think of it, Yuria said something similar before.

“Alright, let’s find a good tree quickly and head back! We might actually get stung by that bee you mentioned!”

“I-I’m telling you, it was real!”

Despite being teased by Airi, we set up the trap on a tree and started walking back down the mountain path.
