After school, I was on my way home after finishing my duty in the staff room when I felt a heavy weight on my shoulder.
I thought I was possessed by a group of evil spirits and panicked, but it was worse than that.
An arm was around my shoulder.
“Yo!”
The source of the voice was the ruler of the school who smirks with his fiery red hair.
“Uwahh, it’s the President.”
I was caught by the most annoying person ever.
His entire body weight is on me. He’s so heavy.
Behold, the cliché scene of someone being surrounded by yankee(s) yet again.
……But even though they’re brothers and he’s the President, I don’t feel nervous around him.
Even when he’s sticking so close to me, I don’t think anything of it.
No, I guess there’s this nervousness where I feel like he’d molest my butt.
“You’re thinking something bad about me, aren’t you?”
“What delusions are you having? Or rather, I don’t have any money on me;so even if you jumped on me, it wouldn’t make a sound.”
“Ah? What’re you talking about?”
“Eh? You came to molest my butt, right?”
When I said that, my cheeks were pulled with his brute strength.
“Id hurds!”
“Well, it’s interesting that you can talk to me like that……What, you look so sad. And you didn’t come to the Student Council Room last week, right?”
“I’m not as free as you.”
I answered while rubbing my cheeks that were released.
That hurt, this is why gorillas are no good.
I thought my cheeks would rip.
I’m going to tell big brother President bullied me today.
“Ahh? Don’t be so full of yourself.”
He threatened me with his arm still around my shoulders. It was terrifying.
I was too used to it that I’ve forgotten, but President is the type of person to use his strength to coerce someone.
“My apologies. I’ll be careful in the future. I will not go against you from now on.”
It’s a hassle to go against him, and I don’t want him to get angry at me anyway.
I thought that I would live in fear like other weak boys from now on, but……
“Huhh? I’ll beat you up if you say something so boring. It’s interesting when you resist(?).”
“Which one is it……”
He gets angry if I get carried away, but he also gets angry if I obey him……
As I thought, he’s so troublesome.
“Hm? I knew it, you’re quieter than usual. Alright, I’ll take care of you. We’re going out now!”
Just where did that idea come from?
I suddenly recalled the nightmare of what happened when we visited the castle.
“No need……Well, it’s useless to say that, isn’t it? I’ll go get my bag.”
I refused because of a conditioned reflex, but I remembered that this person was President.
I gave up on resisting as it was a waste of time and effort, so let’s quietly obey.
Since I have a wallet this time, I don’t have to worry about money.
We left school and got on a bus.
I was scared of what kind of remote area I would be taken to this time, but we surprisingly arrived within 30 minutes.
It was also in front of a large building in the city.
“This is……”
“An aquarium.”
It was a huge square-shaped building with a wide field of view.
You can see pictures and illustrations of fish and sea creatures everywhere.
In front of us, there was a couple taking a commemorative photo while riding a statue of a polar bear walking on four legs.
It’s another date spot.
Last time, I was terrified by the trauma that made me want to hide in a hole whenever I saw a duck.
This time, I was only afraid of what kind of emotional scars I’ll have today.
For the time being, I wasn’t told to take a picture while riding the polar bear, so I patted my chest in relief.
If it was President, I think holding down a real polar bear while riding it suits him better.
“Can you stop trying out date plans with me? Well, this does seem like a place that big brother would like though……”
“Is that so? That’s good then.”
Huh?
I was impressed and thought that he did a good job on the research, but was I wrong?
“Aren’t you doing a thorough preliminary investigation this time?”
“It’s not for me. It’s not for Makoto either.”
“Huhh?”
Then who am I being tested for?
Whatever, it’d be troublesome if I ask any further.
Besides, I think I can enjoy it more than the last time.
This was a relatively new aquarium in the city. Although the site wasn’t that large, it was a hot spot for various events.
I wanted to come here at least once.
It seems like the event was still being held. A big and bright poster was posted at the entrance.
“Ah……This is……!”
I remembered when I saw the poster of the event.
I’ve only heard about this aquarium recently, but I knew this was a collaboration with an online game!
The online game that I play has a new update where the new area they opened was a town under the sea, and they reproduced that event area here.
“Let’s go! This instant!!”
I immediately felt excited.
I had given up because I couldn’t find anyone to accompany me, but I never thought that I could get President to take me here!
It was weirdly irritating to see President grinning at me, but I’ll endure it.
I left President behind and rushed to buy a ticket. Then I went down the gate at the entrance.
“It’s deeper inside, huh.”
Looking at the map, the event area was the farthest.
“Are you going there now?”
“No, I’ll take my time and take a look around since we’re here.”
I was surprised and impressed that President gave me a choice.
The first animal to appear before entering the building was a penguin in the rocky area.
The others seem to be in the ice area inside, but this penguin didn’t seem to care whether it was cold or not.
It was standing on the rocks.
We stopped walking and stared at it.
It seemed relaxed, and it looked a little silly and cute.
But……
“It stinks……”
“It sure does……”
I don’t know if it’s the smell of food or the place, but it’s a fishy and nauseous odor.
“If Natsuhi-senpai was here, he would probably complain about it, haha.”
I laughed when I remembered the time he complained how stinky it was when we were fishing.
‘What a troublesome person he is!’ I thought at that time.
I have never imagined having a romantic relationship with that person.
……Well, it can’t be helped that I’m thinking about someone who’s not even here right now.
I stopped thinking about it and wanted to go inside the building, but when I looked at President, he had a look that made me annoyed.
“What’re you smiling for? That’s disgusting.”
“Nothing much?…… Hey, who’s disgusting? Are you one of them?”
With that said, President tried to grab my collar and throw me into the penguin area.
Someone stop him!
While I resisted, we were bothering the couple nearby.
The girlfriend was blushing when she saw President and she was in a good mood, but when the boyfriend saw that, his mood soured even further.
The careless President was unaware of the couple, but I don’t know what will happen if he notices the boyfriend’s attitude.
I don’t want to cause a dispute in such a place.
I hastily pulled President away.
There were various fish in the aquarium.
Not only that, but many other sea creatures.
As I looked at President while thinking it was strange for him to stop in front of such a cute animal, it seemed like he was looking at the couple that were looking at the sea otter instead.
The couple were holding hands while watching the sea otter swim around.
“That’s cute,” the couple were talking to each other when President started muttering–
“Wild sea otters connect seaweed to their bodies so that their partners don’t leave while they sleep, but the aquariums don’t have that so they hold hands. They do that because they’re tamed. It’s a shame.”
He said and continued walking forward.
“”……””
Perhaps the couple heard what President said, because their conversation stopped.
I wasn’t the person at fault, but I felt bad for them.
I couldn’t bear staying there, so I fled from the scene.
I went after President and scolded him.
“President! Don’t throw cold water on them!”
“I was just stating facts though?”
“You don’t have to bother saying it! Don’t disturb them and shatter their dreams!”
“Is that even a dream?”
What a troublesome person.
I have to explain every single thing to him.
“‘They look so cute holding hands so maybe we should do that too’— if you’re a couple, such development could happen!”
Why do I have to explain this to him?
While I was feeling frustrated, my hands felt warm.
“……What’re you doing?”
For some reason, President was holding my hand.
“You like this kind of development, right?”
“I don’ttt!”
Just what was he hearing!
Didn’t I say as a ‘couple’!
He’s not listening to me at all.
Why do I have to walk hand in hand with President at an aquarium?!
“You’re going to get lost, so this is just right.”
“I won’t get lost on a straight route! Let go!”
I shook President’s hand off and continued walking ahead.
Aah this is so tiring……I’m not raising a gorilla!
“Sighh……I can feel the hardships of Natsuhi-senpai.”
I wouldn’t be able to relax living under the same roof with him.
“Really, you should learn from Natsuhi-senpai once in a while.”
“Did you want to come with Natsuhi that much?”
“What?”
How did it come to that?
“You’ve only been talking about ‘Natsuhi-senpai’ since just now.”
“……No I didn’t.”
……Did I really?
I think I just end up comparing them whenever I’m with President though.
As I thought about it, President overtook me with a smirk.
What’s with that expression?
Just what do you want to say?
While suppressing the urge to kick President who was walking in front of me, we passed through the exhibition area and finally reached the event area.
“Uwahhh……Awesomeeee!!!!”
There was a piped-shaped passage through the bottom of the huge aquarium so you could enjoy the view from below.
The colour of the walls and the lighting were devised; the pale violet light shimmered, making it look as if we were in the dragon king’s palace.
The mobs that appeared in the game sank in the water, and a keeper wearing a fish-like wet suit, who seems to be a townsman, swam around. The world of the game was reproduced perfectly.
It really felt like you were in the game.
Being inside the BL game world was nice and all, but I also want to reincarnate into a fantasy world.
As I stared at the scenery for a while, I was illuminated by a flash and a “Kacha” sound.
“……What’re you taking a picture of?”
The President was smirking as always, but he had his phone’s camera lens facing me.
What’re you doing, I’ll sue you.
“I was just thinking of boasting.”
“Huhh?”
I don’t like anyone taking pictures of me and I have no idea what he’s talking about, but it’s a waste of time to be with President.
President left and ambled around to enjoy the scenery.
If you looked closely, the figurines and decorations were also elaborate. The quality was better than expected.
The clerk at the small shoe in the aisle was also dressed as a merchant who appeared in the game, and I took a picture of them without thinking.
I also got a serial number of the costume item that I got when I came here; it was a blissful time.
“Thank you for today! It was unexpectedly, and miraculously, fun!”
“You really have a lot to say, don’t you!”
I was able to have fun without any trauma today!
“Here, as thanks.”
I gave President something like a plastic toy that imitated the sword in the game, which I bought at the shop earlier.
“What’s this, don’t need it.”
I knew you were going to say that though.
“There’s gum inside. You can eat it if it’s gum right? Since I bought it too, we’re matching. Well, take it as a commemoration of coming here!”
“Commemoration, huh. It can’t be helped. I’ll accept it. Heh……matching, huh.”
I was about to be rejected, but I managed to make him take it.
But with that smirk of his, he was probably up to no good.
It seemed like he was thinking about throwing it away somewhere.
It was cheap so it was simply made and obviously just a toy, but it made President look like he was a knight holding a sword.
A bow would suit Natsuhi-senpai.
……I was thinking about Natsuhi-senpai again.
It was definitely because I’m with President.
There was no other meaning than that.
“Both of you went out together before, right?”
As I tried to get rid of Natsuhi-senpai from my head while walking down the road to the bus stop, President began to talk.
I walked and listened to President talking while recalling the time we went out.
(T/N: Maybe it’s because lotsa shit happened in this novel but when did Natsuhi-senpai and Akira go out together?)
“Since then, Natsuhi has strangely been playing with his phone very seriously at home. When I wondered what he was looking at, I saw that he was looking for a place to have fun. It was the aquarium.”
“He-eh……”
……Why is he talking about that?
I didn’t know what to say and just replied vaguely. Perhaps President knew that I didn’t feel like talking, so he opened his mouth.
“Maybe to compete with me, he planned to bring you here?”
The moment I heard that, I almost stopped in my tracks.
That’s……
I knew that it wasn’t a place that President researched for big brother, but……
Does that mean it was actually ‘a place Natsuhi-senpai researched about for me’?
At that moment, I felt my face burning with heat.
But I didn’t want to be seen by President so I continued walking emotionlessly.
“It’s not guaranteed that it was for me……”
“All the places he researched were ones that you would like, you know? You actually had fun at the aquarium, right?”
“That’s right, but……”
It certainly was a place that I wanted to go to.
Natsuhi-senpai also wanted to say something to me, didn’t he?
I didn’t invite Natsuhi-senpai because he didn’t seem to be very interested in the game in general, but did he remember what I said?
Did he really intend to bring me there?
……Is it okay to think so?
My mind was restless, but I desperately pretended to not feel anything.
I didn’t know if President was aware of it, but he glanced at me and started talking again with a laugh.
“Do you fight with Makoto?”
“Not much. I’m not someone who can fight with big brother. It’s mostly me who’s the wrong one anyway.”
“You’re right.”
Just which part of that are you affirming?
It feels like he’s trying to say,‘There’s no way Makoto will ever be wrong. It’s like that because you’re stupid.’
It’s true though!
“How about President and Natsuhi-senpai?”
“We used to fight a lot when we were kids, but……before I knew it, he started to put up with whatever I did. We don’t fight much now. He’s become such a boring guy.”
I’m sure he just gave up and said nothing to President.
Natsuhi-senpai is pitiful that it can’t be helped.
I wouldn’t like having that kind of older brother.
But Natsuhi-senpai loves President.
I wonder if brothers are supposed to be like that.
“I expect him to get angry this time.”
“Huhh? Did you do something to offend him?”
“I am, right now. Well, look forward to it.”
I can’t look forward to angering Natsuhi-senpai.
I don’t know what he did, but I don’t want to get involved.
※※※[Part 5]
Friday morning——
As I passed through the school gate, I felt the same heavy weight from yesterday.
As I thought, this was worse than evil spirits.
“Yo.”
“……Good morning.”
Needless to say, it was President.
I wanted to avoid taking care of President because it was tiring, but……to meet him in the morning, I’m so unlucky.
“Sighh, so boring.”
His tone matched his words, but his expression didn’t.
He seemed to be having fun.
His words were contradictory; I couldn’t understand him.
“As expected, he was mad but he sure is being quiet. And here I was looking forward to him punching me.”
Is this about what he said yesterday, about making Natsuhi-senpai mad?
I don’t want to get involved, so I don’t want to hear about it.
“Look behind you.”
“Eh?……!!”
When I did as I was told, there stood Natsuhi-senpai, angry with those dark and ice-cold eyes that seemed to show the illusion of a blizzard.
“Eek-“
I’ve seen something that shouldn’t be seen.
It felt like I would be frozen if I looked any longer, so I hurriedly looked away.
“He seems to be in a really bad mood!? What did you do!”
“What, you say…… I just talked about it. Hey, what do you think I should do after this?”
“I don’t know! Don’t get me involved!”
Even if I had a few extra lives to spare, it wouldn’t be enough.
Even if it was, it was awkward to be with Natsuhi-senpai!
Shaking off President’s annoying arm, I hurried to the classroom to escape before getting involved.
※※※[Part 6]
“Let’s not get involved with President or Natsuhi-senpai for a while!”
I made a resolution and finished school with dedication.
President will find me if I wander around, so let’s quickly go home.
As I was getting ready to go home, I heard the familiar sound of the school broadcast.
They always use it to tell students that clubs are starting everyday after school.
I was going to ignore it, but……
“Amachi Akira, come to the Student Council Room immediately! If you don’t come in 5 minutes, I’ll be the one to bring you over!”
The bag I held fell out of my hand.
I was dumbfounded, and then I felt the anger building up.
That idiot President! Natsuhi-senpai should’ve nailed you in the head!
I wanted to ignore it, but this was President’s territory.
All the girls who were in the classroom stared at me with their faces saying, ‘Hurry, go.’
I knew I couldn’t escape from this siege.
Fine, I only need to go, right? I’ll go!
There wasn’t any useless resistance, but there’s nothing more annoying than this.
I opened the door of the Student Council Room and shouted.
“Don’t use the broadcast to call me out! Don’t you have a phone?!”
“You might not pick up though? That was the most reliable and quickest way.”
With his long legs crossed in his usual pipe chair, President, who was sitting proudly, said fearlessly.
Only a murderous aura arose.
Certainly, if you were called out in President’s territory, you must go because you would be caught by all the ‘thug girls’; but it’s cowardly to use the broadcast.
“And? What do you want? Should I buy juice for you!?”
I didn’t conceal my annoyance, cursing at him as I prepared myself to listen to what he was going to say.
I won’t forgive you if you really called me over to run errands for you. I’ll tattle on you to big brother about it.
“You think I called you over just to make you run errands?”
“It’s possible for the insane President.”
It doesn’t seem like he called me over for errands.
Then what did he call me here for?
I sat at the edge of the long table that was arranged in a ‘コ‘ shape, and decided to listen to him.
After hearing what I said, he glanced at me for a moment, but soon returned to that irritating smirking face that looked good on President.
“You’re interesting. Sometimes you’re courageous and other times, you’re just a simple idiot. I never get tired when I’m with you. I can see why he’s interested in you.”
“Huhh?”
I don’t know if I’m being insulted or complimented.
I leaned on the long table with one elbow while thinking it was troublesome to argue with him. Then he moved from his seat and sat next to me.
He looked at me silently.
“W-what is it?”
“I can spoil you until I get Makoto.”
“Huh?”
I thought there was something wrong with my ears, but was he sane?
Or did you mean something different and I just misunderstood?
“Wait, please stop with the weird jokes.”
I looked into President’s face to confirm once more, but I couldn’t read his mind from just his usual smirk.
“It’s……it’s a joke, right?”
Ah, this is bad.
I instinctively thought that I should run away, so I stood up, but……it was too late.
I was immediately caught by President.
I couldn’t compete with his brute strength. By the time I realized it, I was lying on the long table.
(T/N: Heh things are getting spicy aye *grins*)
I couldn’t move as he grabbed my wrists and pinned them down.
The handsome President’s face was right in front of me with his usual smirk, looking down at me.
“What’re you doing! I’m telling big brother!”
Since it came to this, I’ll have to use the special word: ‘big brother’.
If I said that, he would withdraw quietly……Or so I thought.
“If I can’t have Makoto, then I can only have you as a substitute forever?”
“Huhh!?”
You’re kidding me……I couldn’t believe that President gave up on big brother, and that he wanted me as a replacement.
Regardless, I couldn’t move because I was surprised and confused, President’s face slowly approached mine.
I had a bad feeling and turned away.
I wasn’t expecting it, but I realised that President had his head buried in my neck.
He was so close……The bright red hair was in my face, and I could hear his breathing.
Without being able to do anything, President stopped moving and quietly muttered in my ear.
“I think it’s about time he’s here.”
“Heh?”
When I was confused about what he was saying, I heard a faint noise from outside the Student Council Room.
“See?”
It tickled when he spoke into my ear like that.
I understood that President was having fun, but what was this situation!?
While I was confused, the door of the Student Council Room opened with a loud ‘Bang!’ It sounded like it was going to break.
The person who opened the door was Natsuhi-senpai……and our eyes met.
Natsuhi-senpai’s eyes were wide open as he froze in place.
I couldn’t cope with the sudden situation, and just watched, but……Natsuhi-senpai’s face became even colder.
It wasn’t just a stern expression……It was an expression that I had never seen before. You could tell that he was really angry this time.
Scary!
“What’re you doing! Older brother!”
When I thought he was going to run in, Natsuhi-senpai yanked President off of me and grabbed his collar.
Eek, I’m scared of Natsuhi-senpai!
Soon after, I escaped and went to hide somewhere in the back and watched them.
“What my younger brother has, is mine too, right?”
President pulled Natsuhi-senpai’s hand away, and said without flinching.
It was as if I was watching a terrible recital and I was shocked to hear that line of the Bratty General, but Natsuhi-senpai was different.
‘Snap!’ I could hear the sharp sound effect of him snapping.
Natsuhi-senpai, who was trembling, couldn’t suppress his anger as he grabbed President……and punched him in the face.
Uwahh, I wanna run away already!
The brothers’ quarrel was too intense.
It was very different from our Amachi family.
Since I was a kid, big brother was already doing so much. That was why he could still control himself even if I got angry.
I’m glad I was born to be big brother’s younger brother……I’m so glad I was the second son of the Amachi family!
“Older brother! Don’t even think of claiming him as yours! He’s mine!”
“……Eh?”
(T/N: AUSHDIASGDGASD AHHHHH SO MANLY I’M- ASDGAHKAGSD DID YA’LL SEE THAT!?)
My thoughts wandered elsewhere but immediately returned after hearing that.
Natsuhi-senpai pulled me and grabbed my arm.
Eh, what’s this about?
I heard that I’m “Natsuhi-senpai’s” or something like that……
……Is that what they’re talking about?
……Wait, what kind of topic is this!
Do I belong to Natsuhi-senpai!?
The quarrel was so shocking that I couldn’t make any sense, but was it related to me?
The talk between President and Natsuhi-senpai continued, leaving me desperately trying to grasp the situation.
“You idiot. All you had to do was say that from the start. It’s pathetic that you can’t even say it unless you’re pushed to the edge.”
President’s cheek turned red from the punch, but he didn’t seem to care about that at all as he laughed.
Hm? Pushed to the edge?
By the way, President said before that he wanted to purposely make Natsuhi-senpai mad. Is it about that?
Hearing President’s words, Natsuhi-senpai stopped moving.
I could see his anger slowly dissipating.
And when he glanced at me, he muttered softly.
“……So that’s what you were doing.”
It seems like he’s convinced.
I want an explanation though……
Ignoring me, who was left in the dark, the Aogiri brothers calmed down and returned to normal.
……I’m glad that it’s all over now, but just what was that about!?
“But what was that pathetic move, that punch doesn’t count-“
As he said so, President punched Natsuhi-senpai.
Obviously, he was stronger than Natsuhi-senpai and the latter fell down.
“Natsuhi-senpai!”
“It’s a punch to give you energy.”
When I looked at President, he was grinning widely.
This barbaric gorilla is really…!
“There’s a limit for everything!”
“It’s not a big deal.”
President, who didn’t seem to be worried even though that was his younger brother, threw something at me.
I hurriedly caught it and saw that it was a key.
“I’ll lend you this place for a while. Lock it when you leave.”
After saying so, he casually walked out.
What’s with this person……
It’s certain that he’s a walking man-made disaster.
“Haha, I’m so pathetic. As expected, I can’t beat older brother.”
Natsuhi-senpai muttered as he looked at the door that President had walked out of.
When I approached Natsuhi-senpai who was crouching down and looked at his face, his cheek was more swollen and red than President’s.
“I’ll go get something to cool it down.”
“Don’t go.”
I stood up to go to the infirmary, but I was grabbed by the arm and stopped in place.
But if it leaves any scars, it’ll be a waste of his ikemen face.
‘Let’s go get something after all,’ As I thought so, the hand tightened and pulled on my arm.
I was going to fall down due to an unexpected action, and as I accepted that fact……
“!”
When I realized, I was being held by Natsuhi-senpai.
“I take back the ‘Forget it’ that I said before.”
“Eh?”
I don’t understand both this situation and what he’s saying.
“Y-you’re not making any sense!”
I tried to escape from this embarrassing situation, but I was firmly caught by Natsuhi-senpai and couldn’t move.
Although I resisted, he was angry and said, “Shut up, don’t move”……
While calming down, I decided to listen obediently and stay quiet.
“You were avoiding me, weren’t you?”
I didn’t……I did do that.
I worked hard on ignoring him.
“I thought you didn’t like it. The fact that I told you that I liked you. That’s why I decided to take back what I said.”
“It’s not like I hated it……I was just self-conscious about it. I couldn’t look at you in the face.”
So I was the reason he told me to ‘forget it’.
Certainly, it couldn’t be helped that he thought that I hated it if I avoided him right after he confessed.
But I didn’t want him to take it back.
“To be honest, I was really scared of being hated by you. I didn’t want this relationship where we could talk normally to end. That’s why……I regretted telling you that I liked you.”
After Natsuhi-senpai confessed to me, we stopped talking.
Now that I think about it, Natsuhi-senpai might’ve been trying to talk to me to fix our relationship.
But even if I was being normal about it, it might’ve been a rejection to Natsuhi-senpai somehow.
“But now I regret taking it back.”
The arms that held me tightened.
It was painful, but it didn’t seem like he was going to let go of me.
“I like you. I won’t take it back anymore.”
I felt my body temperature rise due to the embrace.
My face was definitely red right now.
Natsuhi-senpai’s face was really close to mine.
I was embarrassed to be found out by Natsuhi-senpai so I looked down to hide my face, but it ended up hitting his chest.
It made it look like I rubbed against him on my own accord, and my face felt even hotter.
What am I doing?!
“How about you? Did you think about it with that small brain of yours?”
“!”
He said the line that I knew was going to come, making my heart race.
Although I was being quiet, I panicked and racked my brain. ‘What should I do!? What should I do!?’ These words ran in my mind on an endless loop.
How should I answer him!?
“Whatever. Who cares about your answer. I’ll just make you fall in love with me.”
During my silence, Natsuhi-senpai found an answer for himself.
Eh, you’re fine with that!?
But I think I should properly say it though.
I don’t know if I can say it well, but I have to say something…!
When I mustered up the courage and raised my face, I was surprised to find Natsuhi-senpai’s face closer than I expected it to be.
I turned away unintentionally, but my face was grabbed and in the next moment……
When I thought I felt a warm feeling land on my forehead and lips, it was gone immediately.
Forgetting to blink, I looked at Natsuhi-senpai.
He seemed normal.
He had a stern and expressionless face.
It’s the usual ikemen.
Was it just a dream?
“Did you do something just now?”
“I sure did.”
So you did.
I see, so it wasn’t a dream.
……
Ehhhhhh!?
“W-what is it! Didn’t you say it was disgusting to do that!”
“I’m fine with it because it’s you.”
When I realized that it wasn’t a dream, my panic gauge shot up immediately and my head turned white.
I was suspicious of his behaviour and started wriggling in his embrace, but Natsuhi-senpai firmly detained me indifferently.
I mean, how was this person so calm about it!
“Why’re you so calm!”
“There’s nothing I can do even if I panic.”
“That’s true, but……”
“If you want to make noise, then go ahead. I’ll stay like this until you settle down.*”
(T/N: AHEM excuse my dirty mind but, why does this sound so suggestive ////)
I can’t calm down in this position though……
When I stole a glance at Natsuhi-senpai’s face, he was smiling serenely and I was mesmerised by that.
Seeing that made me think that it was ridiculous even for me to panic now.
“Me too……If it’s Natsuhi-senpai……I don’t mind.”
I tried not to think about it, but I already knew from the start.
I like Natsuhi-senpai.
That was why I was happy when he confessed to me, and upset when he told me to forget about it.
It was so simple.
“I wonder how we ended up like this.”
Me who told myself that I won’t be gay, and Natsuhi-senpai who hated homos, are now hugging each other like this.
“Really.”
If you showed this scene to me a while ago, I wouldn’t believe it and say that it was a lie.
As if they were thinking of the same thing, their eyes met, and they laughed aloud together.
——Knock knock
I was surprised by the loud noise that suddenly resounded and jolted.
When I looked towards the source of the sound, President was looking at us with a grin by the door.
Apparently, it was the sound of President knocking on the door.
“……Ah!!”
Recalling my current condition, I hurriedly separated from Natsuhi-senpai.
However, it was too late and President’s grin stretched even wider.
This guy, he was watching from somewhere……!
“My bad, I thought I forgot my phone but it was just my imagination.”
That’s a lie, it’s obviously a lie!
My face felt so hot as if it was being boiled.
We were seen by President……!
“Older brother!!”
“Lock the door before continuing, okay?”
President, who was grinning from the beginning to the end, left after saying so.
He knew what was happening and deliberately came to make fun of us……!
“Natsuhi-senpai, I……I wanna kill that person!”
“……Hold it in, he’s still my proud older brother.”
Natsuhi-senpai, who seemed shocked, stood up to check outside the door and locked it.
He checked all the windows to see if they were locked too.
I don’t think you have to go so far.
Natsuhi-senpai, who realized I was looking at him strangely, continued checking while muttering.
“Certainly, we’d be distracted if it wasn’t locked.”
“Huh?”
After that, he closed the curtains that were a little open.
Why did he have to go to such lengths?
We should be finished with our conversation by now.
“You don’t have to be so……”
“You’re fine with being seen?”
“Well, it should be fine if they see us talking……”
“You want to continue?”
Natsuhi-senpai said as if it was natural and walked back to me.
Continue what?
When I was staring at him blankly, I suddenly returned to the embarrassed state I was in just now.
Why?
…Eh…No way…Rather than ‘continue’, you’re willing to move on?
I peered into his eyes to see if he was serious, but it didn’t seem like he was fooling around.
I feel like he’d say, ‘Obviously,’ if I asked him so.
Just, wait a minute……
President did say, ‘Lock the door before continuing’!
“No no no!! You don’t have to listen to big brother’s words!!”
“It was my intention though?”
That can’t be.
Natsuhi-senpai isn’t that kind of character!
“You’re more familiar with it than me. You better teach me properly?”
Familiar, you say……I am though!
Unfortunately, I’m extremely familiar with it!
This development is too fast!!
I’ll be troubled if I suddenly become the BL game world character.
“Please calm down!”
“You calm down.”
Certainly, I’m the one who is more worked up over here, but I’m the one who’s reacting normally.
This calm Natsuhi-sepai is the weird one here!
“Don’t think you can run from me?”
How did it come to this?
Didn’t I say that I wouldn’t become homo, and the person who’s smiling suspiciously in front of me said they didn’t like homos either…!?
It’s unlikely that he’ll be able to escape from his destiny or this person.
I was reincarnated as the main character’s younger brother in a BL game world, but I’m likely to follow the same fate as my brother.
