When I Let My Runaway Senior Stay at My House, Beautiful Seniors Started Gathering Around Me - Chapter 8: Blonde Gal's Request

Chapter 8: Blonde Gal’s Request

It happened so suddenly… or rather, since it had never happened before, I was a little surprised.

“Ah, there you are! Tsubaki~!”

“Hm?”

“What?”

“What is it?”

I was talking to the idiot couple, Kanato and Rio, when a classmate called out to me.

Apparently, someone was looking for me… I talk to people not just in my class but in other classes as well. If that were the case, they could have just come inside instead of calling me from outside.

“I’ll be right back.”

“Ah.”

“See you later.”

I called out to Kanato and the others before stepping out of the classroom.

“…Huh?”

“Finally, you came.”

Standing there with her arms crossed and a sullen expression was Hinata.

Her gal-style look was unchanged, as usual, and she attracted the attention of those around her. But she didn’t seem to care at all. Instead, she grabbed my hand firmly and started walking.

“Uh, um…?”

“Just come with me.”

Of course, our destination was the empty classroom on the third floor.

Many upperclassmen witnessed Hinata dragging me along, but they all quickly averted their eyes.

(This is… scary…)

That was because Hinata was glaring at them.

Of course, among them were those who couldn’t help but be curious, some showing obvious interest, while others had jealous stares. There were a few not-so-friendly looks mixed in.

“Hinata…?”

“………….”

The moment we entered the empty classroom, she pushed me against the wall.

For a weak-hearted person, this would either be terrifying or make their heart race. It was a classic “wall slam,” and I couldn’t help but wonder how I ended up in this situation.

“Call me by my name… Just the two of us, so drop the honorifics.”

“…Hinata.”

“Yeah.”

“So… what is this about?”

“………….”

Hinata’s gaze became even sharper.

I started to worry that I had done something to trouble her, but I had absolutely no idea what it could be.

As I tried to escape her piercing gaze, my eyes inadvertently drifted downward to her ample chest… Her cleavage today was just as breathtaking as ever.

“Arisa told me something earlier.”

“Arisa?”

“What does she mean by ‘she became your big sister’?”

“…!?”

T-That topic…!?

I never expected Hinata to bring that up, but since Arisa was her friend, it wasn’t surprising that they talked about it.

…That said, I also wanted to clear up my own confusion about it.

“Well…”

“What?”

Hinata still hadn’t moved away from the wall slam position.

“Um… If I may explain…”

“Go ahead.”

“Y-Yes, ma’am.”

Since I couldn’t afford to be late for the morning assembly, I gave a brief explanation.

“I see…”

“So that’s how it is…”

After my explanation, Hinata’s expression softened.

“Arisa really loves her little brother. She’s confided in me about it a lot. Maybe after talking with you, the feelings she usually directs at him shifted toward you.”

“It was so sudden, I just nodded at the time and that was it… But nothing’s really happened since then, right?”

“Well, who knows? The way she looked when she told me about it was pure joy. I doubt it’s just nothing.”

“………….”

“Tsubaki.”

“!?”

Hinata suddenly brought her face close and kissed me.

It was rough—so rough that I felt like she was going to drink up all the saliva in my mouth.

“…Tsubaki belongs to me. And I belong only to Tsubaki.”

Hinata’s eyes burned with strong possessiveness.

There was a slight fear in those eyes, but more than that, I remembered everything about my time with Hinata, and I knew she wasn’t someone to be afraid of.

“Hey, Tsubaki.”

“Yes…?”

“How about we skip the morning assembly and first period? Maybe even second period, depending on the situation.”

“…What!?”

She grabbed my hand tightly, trying to take me somewhere.

I desperately tried to reason with her, and after much struggle, I managed to convince her to stop. Apparently, she wanted to take me to the gym storage room… and she pleaded so desperately that it almost broke me.

“How about this week?”

“Uh… My mom’s home this week.”

“…I see.”

Hinata let out a heavy sigh, clearly disappointed.

I couldn’t exactly invite her over when my mom was home… but seeing her this disappointed actually made me happy as a man.

(…So this is what it’s like to not have to think too hard about things. It’s easy, but is it really okay to keep going like this?)

What do I even want?

Lately, I’ve been asking myself that more and more, but in the end, I always take the easy way out, just as Hinata said.

“Sigh… Well, Tsubaki, you should probably head back.”

“Understood.”

And so, I parted ways with Hinata and returned to the classroom.

Since I had been dragged away so suddenly, Kanato and the others were worried, but all I could do was tell them not to worry about it.

(…I really hope this doesn’t turn into some big drama.)

But my hopes were crushed that very afternoon.

“Yoo-hoo~♪ Tsubaki-kun~!”

“!?”

As I walked home alone, someone suddenly covered my eyes.

My vision went black, and at the same time, I felt an overwhelming softness press against my back.

And more than anything, I recognized the voice immediately.

“Arisa…?”

“Yup! It’s me~♪”

The hands blocking my view disappeared, and when I turned around, Arisa was standing there.

“Sorry about earlier. I didn’t think Hinata would react that strongly.”

“It’s fine…”

“But you know, my feelings haven’t changed one bit.”

Saying that, Arisa took my hand.

“Going home already? Isn’t it a bit early? Your big sister wants to go on a date with you.”

“Um…”

For the next ten minutes, Arisa didn’t move an inch.

Her unwavering pressure overwhelmed me, and in the end, I spent some time with her.

(…Arisa is really cheerful.)

Spending time with her was lively in a way that was different from Hinata.

Though her sudden “big sister” declaration and her pushy nature caught me off guard, I couldn’t deny that I enjoyed the atmosphere she created.

“So, what’s next?”

With a mischievous smile, Arisa hugged me, filling the air with her sweet scent.
