Meanwhile, on the other side—
Haruno, naturally, was using Lin Ye's body to begin this after-school date with Isshiki Iroha.
For Haruno, this feeling really wasn't bad at all.
Going on a date with a cute little underclassman, and being able to tease her every now and then—this feeling was just too wonderful!
Because she'd been a woman, teasing had never carried much of a thrill. But now it was different—she was in a man's body, and she could clearly feel the extraordinary sensations that came with a male form.
The same actions, yet the sensory stimulation was completely different.
She quite liked it.
"Senpai, Senpai…"
At the school gate,
Isshiki Iroha had already been waiting for a while.
Along with her sweet smile, she also waved her hand to show her eagerness and warmth.
A youthful, radiant girl bathed in the glow of the setting sun.
She really was cute.
As Haruno walked closer, she noticed that Isshiki Iroha's face wore a delicate, light layer of makeup.
Oh—that hadn't been there at noon.
This girl must have snuck off during the afternoon to secretly put on makeup, wanting to present her very best appearance in front of her.
How nice!
This really was just too good.
Haruno figured that with a little effort tonight, getting Isshiki Iroha to stay out overnight really wouldn't be much of a challenge.
She felt a little tempted.
She wanted to sample the taste of a girl, too.
A youthful, radiant high school student—and one who liked her, no less—this kind of experience felt completely different!
To be honest,
Haruno's heart was pounding faster with excitement now, and a certain idea kept climbing higher and higher.
Making a move on Sister wouldn't be appropriate, and making a move on Meguri gave her some pause too—but with this girl, Isshiki Iroha, the psychological pressure really wasn't all that great.
So, today, she would watch for the right moment and then decide.
Haruno came up in front of Isshiki Iroha. "Let's go!"
"Mm, mm, mm."
Although Isshiki Iroha claimed she didn't particularly mind other people's gazes, if she could avoid them, she'd still rather avoid them.
After all,
Lin Ye was now, in name, Miura Yumiko's boyfriend. If she walked this close to Lin Ye in front of everyone, it would definitely draw attention.
She wasn't especially fond of that feeling.
Soon enough,
Haruno and Isshiki Iroha headed off to the dining room.
Haruno deliberately brought Isshiki to a rather private yakitori restaurant.
Under the dim lighting, in a secluded booth, the two of them sat side by side.
Isshiki Iroha simply felt that Senpai was being awfully aggressive today.
In the past he'd always sit across from her, but today he'd sat right down beside her. Even though Senpai hadn't done anything, she couldn't shake the feeling that in the very next second he'd do all sorts of intimate things.
"Please enjoy your meal, guests."
The yakitori skewers came out fairly quickly and in large numbers.
In no time, skewer after skewer appeared, giving off heat and fragrance.
"Go ahead,"
"Senpai, um, aren't the prices here kind of high?"
"Mm, a little."
She said, "If I don't have enough to cover the bill, I'll just leave you here as collateral."
"Ehh, no way! Senpai, how could you do that to me? I'm this cute—can you really bear to treat me like that?"
"I can bear it."
"Wuu, wuu, ohh."
"But I'll spend the money to buy you back, Isshiki, so rest easy, rest easy."
"Mm, mm, mm. That's more like it."
Isshiki Iroha nodded repeatedly.
And in the very next second, Isshiki Iroha felt an extra hand on her thigh—it was Senpai's hand.
Wuwah.
Senpai really had gotten aggressive.
He'd gone straight to hands-on!
Isshiki Iroha gazed at Senpai's profile and carefully shifted a little. Even if she was willing at heart, she couldn't just let Senpai have his way outright.
She had to take it slow; as a girl, she had to hold herself with some reserve.
Soon enough,
Haruno's hand naturally slid back down, and she stopped keeping it on Isshiki Iroha's thigh.
This threw Isshiki Iroha—who had already braced herself to refuse once more—into confusion.
Senpai just gave up like that?
No way!
Surely not!
Had Senpai gotten angry and just given up like that?
Isshiki Iroha instantly fell into disarray, subconsciously wondering whether her earlier behavior had been too off-putting, prompting Senpai to lose his nerve.
The yakitori dinner had begun,
and Haruno even took the initiative to place a skewer in front of Isshiki Iroha, leaving Isshiki stunned for a moment, wondering whether she was seeing things.
Since when did Senpai ever have moments this proactive!
Still, watching the gentle gesture from the Senpai beside her, Isshiki Iroha couldn't help but part her lips slightly, ready to bite down—only to find she'd bitten into empty air.
The skewer was gone.
It had already been pulled back by Senpai.
What was going on?
How did it just vanish?
Isshiki Iroha looked over at Senpai, only to see him open his mouth, put the skewer inside, and begin savoring it himself.
"What's wrong? Didn't you say you weren't going to eat it?"
Haruno spoke in a deliberately nonchalant tone.
Isshiki Iroha: "..."
Senpai, how could you do this.
Isshiki Iroha said inwardly.
"If Senpai wants to feed me, it's not like I can't eat it."
She said.
"In that case, never mind, I'll just eat it myself."
That reaction instantly made Isshiki Iroha even more displeased.
How infuriating—Senpai really did love to tease her.
She turned her head away, yet her gaze still kept darting over toward Haruno from time to time.
Haruno's inner amusement kept bubbling up.
This underclassman's acting skills—she'd give her that.
It just didn't work particularly well on Lin Ye.
Swap in any other man and he'd probably have already fallen for it.
Haruno figured that it was precisely because Lin Ye kept rejecting her that Isshiki Iroha's competitive streak had been sparked, making her so unwilling to give up on Lin Ye.
Once she successfully won Lin Ye over, Haruno figured Isshiki Iroha would suddenly lose her original drive and slip into a state of emptiness.
Of course, this was just Haruno's speculation.
As for how it would actually turn out, she wasn't sure either.
"Senpai,"
Isshiki suddenly raised her voice, then continued.
"I'm hungry."
She expressed her wishes in another way.
"It's all ready, help yourself."
Haruno wasn't about to indulge her at all, saying it bluntly. She wouldn't follow Isshiki's script and let Isshiki have things her way.
"Senpai, Senpai, you're treating me to dinner—you've got to see it through with full service."
"Shouldn't that be my line as the Senpai?"
Haruno replied.
But Isshiki, as if she'd finally gotten the very answer she'd wanted, immediately smiled and picked up a skewer of grilled chicken, holding it out in front of Haruno.
"Senpai, here you go."
Haruno looked at the skewer right before her eyes, then looked at Isshiki's smiling, expectant gaze, and so she too pursed her lips, opened her mouth, and bit down.
"Hm?"
Empty.
She hadn't bitten into anything at all.
Haruno saw the smile curling at the corners of Isshiki Iroha's mouth, one she couldn't suppress no matter how hard she tried.
This little brat did it on purpose—it was definitely payback for what he'd done earlier.
Fine, very fine.
It had been a long time since Haruno had experienced something like this.
Today, she was going to see just how far Isshiki Iroha could take it.
'Pat…'
Haruno went hands-on directly, placing her left hand on Isshiki Iroha's thigh.
The sudden assault made Isshiki Iroha freeze, her muscles subconsciously tensing. Senpai always caught her off guard, always striking out of nowhere.
Infuriating.
As she thought this, Isshiki Iroha keenly sensed that Senpai was pushing his luck even further, growing even bolder. This… where exactly was this heading?
No, no, this couldn't go on any longer.
Isshiki Iroha tensed both legs and clamped them down hard, trapping Haruno's mischievous left hand.
But Haruno's strength was who knew how many times greater than Isshiki Iroha's. With just a little force, the hand gradually began to move once again.
That hand advanced further and further toward the sensitive area,
and Isshiki Iroha pressed even harder. In the end, faced with a momentum she couldn't stop, she couldn't help but let out a faint, pleading sound.
"Senpai…"
She pleaded, hoping Haruno would know when to stop. If this kept up, it really wouldn't be appropriate.
"A certain underclassman did something very naughty just now."
"I, I apologize, I sincerely apologize."
But in Isshiki Iroha's heart, she grumbled that she'd only been imitating what Lin Ye had done to her. Yet Senpai, faced with her behavior, had actually retaliated like this—Isshiki Iroha was quite unhappy.
But,
when you're standing under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
It couldn't be helped—she was simply no match for Senpai, and that left her no way to keep up her strong front.
In the end,
Isshiki Iroha could only choose to compromise.
But, if she ever got the chance, she'd definitely pay him back. Yes—that was exactly what Isshiki Iroha was thinking inside.
"Displeased?"
A voice suddenly came by her ear, making Isshiki Iroha shake her head over and over. "Where would I be displeased? How could I possibly be displeased? This is all my own doing—yes, it's all brought on by myself."
Inside, Isshiki Iroha was bawling.
But there was nothing for it; she could only say that. If Senpai kept getting more and more out of line, then what was she supposed to do?
In the past, Isshiki Iroha had always wished Senpai would be more proactive, more aggressive, instead of forever being passive and forever rejecting her.
But now that Senpai had actually turned into the very image of a fully aggressive carnivore, Isshiki Iroha started to get a little scared, worried she might end up getting hurt.
Things were moving too fast; she wasn't mentally prepared at all.
What she needed was a gradual, step-by-step approach.
For that reason, she felt it would be best if Senpai went back to how he used to be.
"Here, eat."
Haruno's right hand held a skewer and brought it in front of Isshiki Iroha.
This time, Isshiki Iroha had turned obedient. Without any hesitation she opened her mouth and ate—she'd even braced herself for not being able to reach it, but in the end she successfully bit down on it.
This actually threw her into a bout of self-doubt for a moment, wondering whether Senpai had turned over a new leaf.
"How does it taste?"
"Mm-hm, it's pretty tasty, very tasty."
"Since it's tasty, then eat more."
Haruno immediately placed more skewers in front of Isshiki Iroha.
Isshiki Iroha ate without stopping, and before long her little tummy was already stuffed full.
"No, no more, I can't, Senpai, I really can't eat any more,"
She shook her head, refusing again and again. "Senpai, eat a bit more, really—Senpai, why don't you go ahead and eat my share too!"
Instead, she'd turned to coaxing Haruno to eat.
Haruno savored it in small bites as Isshiki Iroha brought it to her lips.
At the same time, Haruno's left hand didn't stay idle either, stroking Isshiki Iroha's smooth, supple thigh and, now and then, sliding upward to enjoy the soft touch of her belly.
This feeling really was nice.
This experience really was wonderful.
Haruno drew Isshiki Iroha into her arms.
A beautiful girl in one hand, delicious food in the other—could there be anything more comfortable and pleasant than this?
A dozen or so minutes later,
having eaten the banana Isshiki Iroha handed over, Haruno stood up. "I'm going to settle the bill. Isshiki, wait here for me a bit."
"Mm, mm."
The little underclassman nodded repeatedly.
She had no idea how much it had cost.
If it was too high, then… there was no way she could pay off the debt with her body.
Senpai was so rich; he surely wouldn't need her to work off any debt.
Soon, Haruno returned.
"Let's go!"
"Mm, mm, Senpai, where are we headed next?"
"There's a place I've always been quite curious about, one I've always wanted to go see and broaden my horizons at. I wonder, Isshiki, if you'd be willing to go there with me."
"Of course I'm willing!"
How could she not be willing?
That was impossible.
As for the matter of accompanying Senpai, she was definitely willing—she was absolutely, wholeheartedly willing.
"Good, let's go!"
At the very instant Haruno turned around, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth—the smile of someone whose scheme had succeeded.
Let this little underclassman Isshiki Iroha broaden her horizons a bit!
Hahaha.
Haruno looked forward to Isshiki's reaction the moment she laid eyes on it.
It was sure to be spectacular.
A while later,
Haruno led the way up front and, at just the right spot, came to a stop.
Isshiki Iroha looked up and immediately spotted that enormous signboard.
Love… love-what-again.
Senpai had actually brought her to this kind of place—this was totally inappropriate!
This wasn't right, was it?
Could it be that Senpai now had ideas and urges toward her?
"Don't dare to go in?"
"Ha,"
"Too scared to go in?"
"How could that be,"
Isshiki Iroha immediately denied it,
but the moment she'd said it, she came to her senses—this was completely Senpai's provocation tactic!
She'd fallen for it.
"Since you dare, then let's go! Tonight we're spending the night here, so you don't need to go home either."
"Eh,"
Isshiki Iroha grew increasingly flustered inside.
Senpai, Senpai couldn't seriously be planning to spend the night here—this… this was a bald-faced hint!
Isshiki Iroha was pulled along by the hand by Haruno as they walked into the building where the love hotel was located.
Before long,
Haruno had finished the check-in procedures.
Isshiki Iroha clearly saw that Senpai had selected the overnight-stay option rather than the hourly room.
She was shocked.
By the looks of it, Senpai was serious.
Haruno led Isshiki Iroha to the room.
'Click…'
The lights came on, and the room's whole layout was revealed.
All those stimulating items made even Isshiki Iroha blush.
Many of the items she was seeing for the very first time.
All she could say was that a professional establishment truly had more than enough professional equipment.
Isshiki Iroha's eyes were opened wide.
"Quite the selection—it lives up to being a love hotel. My dear underclassman, there's a little favor I'd like to ask of you."
Suddenly, Haruno looked over at Isshiki Iroha, brimming with a smile, and that grinning expression made Isshiki Iroha's heart quail.
Isshiki Iroha already had a guess—this favor probably had something to do with these items.
She didn't want to, she absolutely did not want to.
"Senpai, I'm… I'm sorry, I'm not feeling… particularly well today, so I can't help out."
"Aiyaya, is that so! How disappointing."
Haruno shook her head.
She blocked the doorway and, slowly moving her lips, continued, "This isn't exactly a place you can just leave whenever you like. Could it be that my cute little underclassman doesn't know what it means to come to a place like this?"
At this moment,
Isshiki Iroha's heart hung at its highest point.
It seemed a development was about to unfold that even she hadn't anticipated!
