The Hide-and-Seek and the Darkness and the First Love (1)
The current time is 17 hours 15 minutes. The āHide-and-Seek of Hellā will terminate at 18:10 but just in case Iāll stay hidden till around 18:30 hours.
Itās already been 5 minutes since it commenced so heās probably already searching for me now. If so, itās better if I distance myself as much as possible from the classroom.
The 2nd school building is the furthest from the classroom. Itās settled, Iāll head for the 2nd school building.
Iāll have to pass through the passageway on the second floor to access the 2nd school building.
Now that Iāve decided, itās time to dash to the best of my ability towards the 2nd school building.
āItās probably better to not move around too much, huhā¦ā¦ā
Since I might bump into him somewhere, itās better to lessen my movements.
Iāll boldly hide in the storeroom-like place at the first floor and wait with bated breath by the window. I feel that this is the best plan. Although with my current considerably large physique, itās rather hard to be stealthy, but as much as possible Iāll make myself smaller and be silent.
I headed towards the 2nd school building via the connecting passageway. I skipped the last 3 steps of the stairs as I descended and dove into the storeroom near the stairway. Despite being beside the stairway, there was a window in the storeroom.
This narrow space which was about the size of 8 tatami mats, was packed full of teaching materials. There was an unused organ by the window side.
I didnāt want to touch it since it was so dusty, but in case the worst scenario happens, I climbed on the organ and rested against the window that was above it. Even if Narahashi comes in, I should be able to escape him in about 10 minutes if I jump off from the window.
Through the window I could hear voices of students who were engaging in club activities. The voices could be heard probably because the 2nd school building was situated near the gymnasium and pool.
āMaybe I should join a clubā¦ā¦ā
Mitsuki also mentioned that she wanted to join a club, maybe I should join the same one to protect her from strange guys. But I have no idea which club to join and I also donāt know which clubs sheās been attached with up until now.
Iām not particularly good at sports, and there will be a tall hurdle since Iām joining in my 2nd year.
From the window, I can see that the Swimming Club are having club activities now.
My eyesight is poor so I canāt see very clearly but, isnāt that, Takayanagi?
Wearing a gym uniform and while holding cleaning tools, he seemed to be giving instructions. It seems the Swimming Club is going to cleaning the pool.
In regards to the season, I think itās too early[1], but perhaps they planned to clean it bit by bit, starting from today.
I spotted the uniform-clad figure of a girl nearby.
āAre ā¦ā¦ is that Mitsuki?ā
This pink-coloured bob hair was undoubtedly Mitsukiās.
Although I couldnāt see her expression, she was seemingly happily talking to Tayakanagi.
Is Mitsuki going to enter the Swimming Club? Onii-chan will worry a lot if Mitsuki whoās so cute and has a good figure exposes her swimsuit-clad appearance. But if she really wants to join, I wonāt stop her.
Besides, the Prince isnāt involved in any club activities and itās also impossible to expect him to enter a club just to enjoy club activities with her. Perhaps her sports and similar parameters will raise by joining the Swimming Club.
Itās okay if I, her onii-chan, protects her if some idiot tries to start something strange.
Looking at my watch, itās 17:30 now. Thereās about 30 minutes left.
I should have brought my phone along. This boredom is so difficult to bear. Because there was PE during the 6th period today, I felt unduly sleepy.
Ah, Iām dozing off. Even though I shouldnāt fall asleep, my eyelids feel heavy.
Just for a while. Just for a while, Iāll close my eyes. Iāll close my eyes for just 5 minutesā¦ā¦
While coming up with an excuse, the sleepy darkness quickly engulfed me, sending me deep into the land of dreams.
I wonder how long I dozed off for. It might be because I slept in a strange position, or because I slept above the organ, I woke up with a crick in my neck. I woke up to a pain in my waist and shoulder.
āOuchā¦ā¦! Nowā¦.. now, what time is it?!ā
āItās 19:45ć¼ā
āNo way, the schoolās closed[2]ā¦ā¦ā äøę ”ęå» gekÅ jikoku
Izumino Gakuen completely closes down at 19:15. Apparently, at 19:00 the clubs are still active but by 19:15 they have to change and leave. And 30 minutes after that, all signs of students disappear.
But if itās 19:45, the sensei might still be here. If I knock on the door, they might notice us.
My thoughts stopped there. Just now, who was the one who answered my question?
I vaguely understood that there was someone else here. This voice and this way of speaking, itās without a doubt that hentai, the worst Student Council President whom I hate a lot.
āā¦ā¦ Narahashiā¦ā¦ā
āUn?ā
A low voice that shocked even me came out.
With that Cheshire Cat-like smile of his, Narahashi tilted his head. Even though when Soutarou does this it seems cunningly kawaii, when this guy does it, it just pisses me off.
āWhy didnāt you wake me up?ā
āItās because bunny-chan slept so peacefully. Your sleeping face was also cute. Almost like an angelās.ā
His superficial words annoyed me deeply.
I seriously hate you, Narahashi.
This guy doesnāt like me. This guy doesnāt likeĀ anyone. This guy doesnātĀ loveĀ anyone.
Shallowly saying superficial words of love, youāre probably just scared of being alone.
The only one, you like or love, is yourself.
Donāt put on such a fake smile.
Donāt say that you like even though you donāt.
Donāt cling to things you donāt even like and cause trouble.
I wasnāt born to fill the gap in your heart, and neither do I possess what you need to fill the gap in your heart.
āThatās why, from the depths of my heart I hate you. I hate you a lot, Narahashi.ā
For the first time, Narahashiās smile was destroyed by my heartfelt words.
I wonder what his twitching cheeks were trying to express.
āEhā¦ā¦ bunny-chanā¦ā¦ I donāt understand what youāre trying to sayā¦ā¦ā
When I averted my gaze from the bewildered Narahashi, I saw a black rabbit parka lying on my lap.
Narahashi was probably the one who placed this on me. His scent was faintly lingering on it. It smelled like punk spicy and sweet cologne.
The Princeās smell calms me down but Narahashiās was an uncomfortable smell that sets one fidgeting or makes oneās heart throb.
āYou know, I love bunny-chan a lot and I also love Mitsuki-chan a lot? Of course, I love the other girls too. But even though youāre bunny-chan, I canāt say Iām impressed to hear such things from you.ā
Narahashi who regained his usual self held my arm and pulled me down from the organ.
Because he suddenly pulled me, the numbness that came from sleeping in a weird position spreaded to my entire body and I lost my balance. My back became nailed to the bare concrete floor.
āOuchā¦ā¦ā
āBunny-chan, I wonāt go easy on you today.ā
He straddled my waist and pressed down my arms above my head. When I tried to move, I realised that his strength was beyond my expectation and resistance was futile.
No, thatās not it. Itās because he pushed me down with such a sorrowful face that I found it hard to resist. Iām a guy now after all. If I seriously resist and if itās just him alone, I probably can take him down.
My necktie was removed and the buttons on my shirt were completely unfastened. This guy, such practised movements.
Even though I was originally female, as expected I still felt embarrassed when my upper body, lit by the fluorescent light, was seen.
Narahashiās hand smoothly stroked my flank. It was ticklish.
āNa, youā¦ā¦ will Narahashi-kaichou be satisfied if you have sex with me? Youāll be satisfied if you sleep with me once?ā
āThatās right? As long as bunny-chan does ecchi things with me, kiss me and say you like me, itās fine.ā
His voice clearly sounded hollow.
Even though he tried very hard to give his usual Cheshire Cat smile, he failed big time. His allure-filled ikemen face became unattractive.
āThat so. Ja, I shall say it. Like you. I like you.ā
Saying āI like youā, having sex and kissing. Are you satisfied with this?
Iāll yield my body to Narahashi just once. Even though I had some anticipation about my first time with a guy, Iād have never imagined that Iāll sleep with another male while still in this male body.
But if with this heāll stop getting involved with Mitsuki and I, I canāt be bothered anymore. He can do as he likes.
I stopped resisting completely and let the strength leave my body. And then I immediately stared straight at Narahashi.
Narahashiās facial expression was warped. It seemed like he fell into despair. Grasping the nape of my neck, he brought his lips so close to mine that they almost touched.
āā¦ā¦ why, did you ā¦ā¦ *sniff*, sayā¦ā¦ such a thingā¦ā¦ā
āā¦ā¦ Eh?ā
At that moment, I realised.
Heās crying. Narahashiās crying.
Drip by drip, Narahashiās tears fell onto my cheeks.
āIsnāt it fine to just be quiet and sleep with me? Why did you expressly dredge out the things I didnāt want others to see? Incomprehensibleā¦ā¦ I hate you too. I hate you a lot.ā
āHah?ā
The half-naked me whoās prone on the ground. The sobbing Narahashi whoās straddled on my waist.
Iāve had enough. Isnāt this a ridiculous scene?
And for some reason Iām being told that Iām hated. Being hated by Narahashi and no longer having him following me around is a cause for celebration.
Itāll be good if I can go, āHai, sayonaraā and leave but that wonāt do, huh. The me whoās like a horse being ridden on canāt escape even if I want to.
For now Iāll start by trying to sooth the crying Narahashi and coax him to get off me.
