Chapter 12
In Rena and Shiori’s dorm, Rena was finishing reading a manga that Airi had lent to her during the summer. Shiori was elsewhere.
“I finally finished,” Rena sighed. “I’ll return it to her.”
Rena and Airi haven’t talked much since Airi confessed to her. Rena felt bad for it.
“I want to talk to her,” Rena said softly. I want us to still be friends if she wants to.
Someone knocked on the door.
“Hai?” Rena asked.
“Rena-chan~,” Jurina said as she came in.
“Jurina…” Rena blushed as Jurina went over to hug her.
“What’s that?” Jurina asked.
“A manga I borrowed from Airin,” Rena said.
“… You like manga?” Jurina said.
“Yeah. I like anime and manga a lot,” Rena said.
“Eh… You don’t seem like the type,” Jurina said as she walked over to the nearest bed which was Rena’s.
“R-Really?” Rena asked.
“Yeah, but it’s not a bad thing,” Jurina said before lying down. “Hey, is this your bed?”
“It is…” Rena said.
“It smells like you. I never get tired of it~,” Jurina said.
“Mou…” Rena said.
“Rena-chan,” Jurina sad. “I heard you talking earlier with Ogi-chan.”
“What?! Y-You really heard us?!” Rena asked.
“I was going to go in, but I stopped when I heard my name,” Jurina said. “So I listened.”
“Uwah, Jurina, gomen nasai~~,” Rena went over to her bed.
“W-What are you apologizing for?” Jurina asked.
“You’re disgusted, right?” Rena asked.
“No. Not at all,” Jurina said.
“Eh? By that you mean…” Rena started as Jurina pulled Rena up onto the bed and kissed her. It was a short, but passionate kiss.
“I might be young, but I don’t mind going further at all,” Jurina said.
“Jurina…” Rena said.
“But, if you don’t want to, I’ll wait,” Jurina said.
“Eh? Um, this is backwards, right~?” Rena asked.
“Backwards?” Jurina asked.
“I admit I’m not ready now,” Rena said. “But, if Jurina is willing to put up with me like this, I’m happy.”
“But, my backwards you mean-?” Jurina was cut off.
“Just forget it!” Rena blushed.
“I really want to do more~,” Jurina said.
“It’s okay. I think… it won’t be too much of a wait,” Rena said, hesitating a little before kissing Jurina on the cheek. She moved back covering her face.
“Eh… Did you just kiss me?!” Jurina asked.
“I did,” Rena said. “Ah~, it really is embarrassing~!”
“It was the first time, right?” Jurina said.
“Yeah…” Rena said. “Now we’re even, but this position is…”
“I was so comfortable,” Jurina said as she moved so Rena could get up. “Where are you going?”
“I was going to return this Airin,” Rena said. “Come with me.”
“Eh? Why?” Jurina asked.
“Just come!” Rena said, pulling Jurina off her bed.
Somehow I don’t want to leave her in here…In Akane and Airi’s dorm, Airi was in the library, but Akane was there.
“I make sure she gets it,” Akane said.
“Arigato, Churi,” Rena said. “Are things okay between you and Airin?”
“We haven’t talked much so I don’t know,” Rena said. “I’m leaving to find her.”
“I’m going to stay with Churi for a while,” Jurina said. “I have something to ask her.”
“Okay. Bye then,” Rena said before leaving JuriChuri alone.
“What do you want to ask me?” Akane asked.
“Did you used to have longer hair?” Jurina asked.
“Eh? I did, but why?” Akane asked.
“It’s nothing. I was just curious. Bye!” Jurina said before she left.
“That was weird…” Akane asked, combing through her hair with hand. She had long,
flawless hair before deciding to cut it during the summer.
Could it be that we really have met before…?In the library, Rena found Airi at a table in the library. She had fallen asleep on top of a picture she had been drawing.
“So cute~!” Rena exclaimed as quiet as she could, reaching for her phone. Just one picture and I will wake her up…
So Rena took a picture, but forgot about the shutter sound. It woke up Airin.
“Rena-san?” Airi asked.
“Ah… Airin, um, I’m sorry for waking you!” Rena said, hiding her phone.
“No, it’s okay. I didn’t mean to fall asleep,” Airi said. “Why are you here?”
“I wanted to talk to you,” Rena said.
“About what?” Airi asked.
“Well, recently we have become distant since a few days ago,” Rena said.
“It’s about that, right?” Airi asked.
“It’s my fault!” Rena said. “I didn’t realize Airin’s feelings earlier!”
“It’s okay. You wouldn’t have accepted them anyway, right?” Airi asked.
“Ah… well, no,” Rena said.
“Ah, gomen nasai. I didn’t mean for it to sound that way,” Airi said.
“Airin…” Rena said. “We can still be friends, right?”
“Of course! I thought you wouldn’t want to be anymore,” Airi said.
“It’s the opposite!” Rena said.
“Honestly, all I wanted was to confess so I’m happy,” Airi said.
“If Airin’s happy, I’m happy,” Rena said.
“Rena-san,” Airi blushed.
“Ah, you’re expressions are cute~,” Rena said.
“I’m not cute!” Airi blushed again.
Nearby, after talking with Akane, Jurina had heard some of their conversation. Oya Masana caught her.
“Jurina!” Masana said, making Jurina jump and turn around.
“M-Masana… hi!” Jurina said.
“Eavesdropping again?” Masana asked.
“She’s my girlfriend so it’s okay,” Jurina said.
“It’s not okay,” Masana sighed.
“I love you, Masanya~,” Jurina said, hugging her.
“I won’t stop you, just don’t make it a habit. It could get you into trouble,” Masana said.
“I get it,” Jurina said, releasing the girl.
Jurina and Masana have been close since elementary school. Masana, a third year, was one reason Jurina chose to come to AKB High.
“But, I’m glad things worked out for you two,” Masana said, walking over to another shelf. “You always admired her back in middle school.”
“Don’t let her hear you!” Jurina blushed.
“Don’t tell me you haven’t told her yet?” Masana asked, smiling.
“It’s not that serious…” Jurina said.
“I think it’s romantic,” Masana said.
“Shut up… lolicon,” Jurina said before walking away.
“Hey!” Masana called, but Jurina already left.
In Kojiyuu’s dorm, right after Yuko had come back to school. Haruna was sitting on
Yuko’s bed.
“I’m back,” Yuko said.
“Welcome back,” Haruna said.
“Nyan-Nyan, aren’t you on my bed?” Yuko said.
“Yeah. Is it a problem?” Haruna asked.
“N-No!” Yuko said.
“How did lunch with Acchan and Takamina go?” Haruna asked.
“Overall, I can’t complain, but those two got in an argument,” Yuko said, sitting beside Haruna.
Why do I feel like something bad might happen?“Hm…” Haruna said. “Hey, have you been avoiding me lately?”
“No, well… um,” Yuko said.
“So you are!” Haruna said. “Why?!”
“If I tell you, just laugh,” Yuko said. “Something good will come out of it.”
“What good would come out of this? What’s going on?” Haruna asked. “I won’t laugh, so tell me!”
“On Thursday, I made a bet with Miichan and the others,” Yuko started before sighing. “I’m not supposed to do anything perverted to you for a week, or I’ll have a pop a balloon. If I win, Acchan, Takamina, Mariko & Miichan go through the same bet.”
“…” Haruna stared at her a bit before bursting out laughing.
“You said you wouldn’t laugh!” Yuko said.
“Gomen, gomen!” Haruna said. “This is why you’ve been acting weird?”
“I guess so…” Yuko blushed. “I should of you just told you after all…”
“Yeah,” Haruna said. “But, I’m happy, too.”
“Happy?” Yuko asked.
“Yeah, because you said you wanted to make me proud of you, right?” Haruna asked.
“Because everyone says I’m too perverted…” Yuko said.
“Well, that’s because it’s true,” Haruna said.
“Even Nyan-Nyan thinks so, too!” Yuko said. “I’m going to lose, right~?”
“How many days are left?” Haruna asked, moving closer.
“It’s next Thursday so four days… What-?” Yuko said before Haruna kissed her.
“I-It’s not like I don’t want you to do those things to me sometimes, but this is for own your good,” Haruna said, blushing. “It’s not like you can’t kiss me, or hug me, or sleep with me…”
“Haruna…” Yuko said. “But you always tell me to get in my own bed!”
“Because you would be annoying!” Haruna said. “J-Just forget that part.”
“If I hug you or kiss you, it’ll be hard to stop,” Yuko said.
“But the longer you wait, it’ll become even better,” Haruna said.
“Maybe…” Yuko said.
“A-Anyway, I just want you to stop avoiding me! It makes me feel like you’re cheating or something…” Haruna said.
“I would never!” Yuko said. “…After last year, you still don’t trust me.”
“That’s not true!” Haruna said. “You just changed so I didn’t know what happened.”
“And I’m apologizing for making you worry,” Yuko said.
“And I’m accepting your apology,” Haruna said.
“Nyan-Nyan, I want to kiss you,” Yuko said.
“Baka, kissing is okay,” Haruna said as Yuko brought her in for a heated kiss.
“But… I want to touch you,” Yuko said between kisses.
“… When you win you can touch me all you want,” Haruna said.
“Wait, really?!” Yuko said, breaking the kiss.
“I said once you win! If you try anything before Thursday, I’ll tell!” Haruna said.
“Eh…” Yuko said. Haruna laughed. “Why are you laughing again?!”
“Because I love Yuuchan~…” Haruna said, smiling.
“I love Haruna, too,” Yuko smiled as well.
