Chapter 48
Nya

nya~t
done yet.
Shizuna staggered up at Ryuichis words and embraced him. They were both unclothed, so it was easy to imagine what they had been doing until now.
Well, I knew this would happen, though.
With that thought in mind, he embraced her body as well. Unlike his muscular body, he could clearly feel Shizunas smooth and soft skin.
After everything that had happened that day, they enjoyed their date and took the train back home again in the evening.
Lets leave it at this for today, okay? Cmon, lets lie down.
Okay.
She had proudly proclaimed that being dominated wasnt all she was capable of, and that she too could be on the aggressive side, but well, that turned out just as well as youd expect.
There was no part of Shizunas body that Ryuichi did not already know, and the same was probably true for Shizuna as well, but the difference in experience between them was evident.
I wonder why sex feels so good.
Beats me. Maybe women are just more sensitive than men.
Maybe. Of course, it wasnt like it felt so good that I felt my consciousness leaving me, but there were definitely times when I thought Id go a little crazy.
Ever since he first slept with Shizuna, hed always tried to take care and be considerate of her when he handled her in bed. He already knew very well that she was a masochistic girl, but that didnt mean he could just go absolutely wild and rough on her.
Fufu.
Whats wrong?
Shizuna, who was using Ryuichis muscular arm as a pillow, raised her index finger and poked it against his sturdy chest. She then gently traced her finger across his skin and muttered.
After everything that happened today, I was able to reaffirm my resolve once more.
Reaffirm?
YesI reaffirmed the fact that I really love you, Ryuichi-kun.
Guh
Her smile was more beautiful than any smile hed ever seen before. The expression she had as she looked at him with gentle eyes was truly beautiful, like a holy mother, and her smile felt incredibly maternal even though she was still in high school.
Whenever she gazed at him with eyes like those, a thought always crossed his mind. She loved him and him alone, but on the other hand, he had relationships not only with her but also with Chisa, Sakie, and Satsuki.
Hey, Shizuna.
Yes~?
She mustve been able to infer from his expression that he wanted to say something. She looked straight back at him, as if she was implicitly telling him to say whatever he wanted to say. Thanking her for her kindness, he proceeded to utter the following:
Youreally care about me, no matter what.
Yup.
I also care about you, toobut, youre not the only girl I have a relationship with.
Do you not have any thoughts about that, Shizuna?
Those words were, in a way, words that hed always wanted to ask her. Shizuna put her finger to her mouth and went Hmm~ as she began to think. Then, perhaps having found an answer, she nodded her head
Theres definitely a part of me that wants to monopolize you and keep you to myself. But I also know how Chisa-san and Satsuki-san feel about you.
My mom seems to think of you as a son these days, so I dont think she feels romantic love for you, but Fufu, Im sure you cant let go of those girls now, can you?
Yeahyoure right.
He didnt want to let go of them because they were wonderful women, that was for sure. But that was not the only reason. Those women, like Shizuna, were the ones who gave him warmth. That was why, when asked if he could let go of them, he could only say that he could not.
Im so foul, huh? I know for a fact that if it were me, I would ask for a straight answer.
Hmm, are you thinking about something complicated?
Huh?
He was at a loss not necessarily because it was complicated, but because it was a problem he had to think long and hard about.
However, it seemed she didnt understand why he was worrying so much about itor maybe it wasnt that she didnt understand, but she was trying to say that he didnt have to worry about it.
I, Chisa-san, and Satsuki-san all love you. We all know that and we all know that you have relationships and sleep with all of us. Even so, there isnt any sort of rivalry between us, and we arent at odds with each other.
True.
Then isnt it fine? I think its okay to leave things that way for now. You shouldnt overthink things too much; treating us the way youve always done until now is perfectly fine in my opinion.
I see.
When he heard her words, he turned his gaze to the ceiling. It was as if her words were urging him not to worry about the troubles he had, and that he should just go on with his life as before, not worrying about anything.
Shizuna, youreno, maybe thats okay for now. But man, I cant believe youd say that of all things.
Hey, why are you laughing
Of course Id laugh,he remarked as his shoulders trembled in laughter. It was certainly not an impossibility that shed say that since it was Shizuna, after all, but he found it hilarious that shed really told him that he should continue his relationships with Chisa and Satsuki as he had until now.
As has been mentioned many times before, Shizuna was a pure and beautiful girl, which actually made her the type of person who was suited to be careful and considerate about these kinds of things.

I just thought that, in the end, youre you. A woman whos been dyed by meand a woman whos also dyed me.
Whuh?!
He hugged Shizunas face to his chest as hard as he could. Surprised, she let out something like a cute scream, but she quickly quieted down and let him do as he pleased. Her long, silky black hair flowed pleasantly through his fingers without getting tangled.
You have beautiful hair.
U-Umm
She was surprised by his unusually gentle voice. However, even though she was surprised, the blush on her cheeks was a sign that she was embarrassed, and she seemed to be feeling comforted by Ryuichis voice and touch.
Your skin is so soft, warm, and smooth. Touching it is so comforting, I want to touch you all the time.
Hnng.
Shizunas face blushed endlessly. She looked at Ryuichi with moistened eyes, seemingly asking to be praised with more kind words, which was so cute that he continued to say more.
Ive done a lot of thinking. I cant easily change the way things are now, which is really irresponsible of mebut I want to try and change things at least a little bit and take a step forward toward something new.
Take a step forward?
He nodded. As he said, it wasnt easy to change ones way of life, and his relationship with Chisa and the other girls probably wouldnt change anytime soon. In fact, it was conceivable that things mightneverchange.
Nevertheless, Ryuichi wanted to build a slightly deeper relationship with the one girl who was giving him warmth and love like this.

Shizuna, will you go out with me?
Will you be my girlfriend?
!!
Shizunas eyes widened. Ryuichi and Shizuna had an overwhelmingly intimate relationship with each other, much more so than between a normal man and woman, partly because theyd already slept with each other many times.
However, their relationship up until now has been more of that between sex friends, so this proposal was made so that they could have a relationship where they could confidently declare to everyone around them that they were proper boyfriend and girlfriend.
I do.
I want to be your girlfriend, Ryuichi-kun!
All right. Youre now my girlfriend, Shizuna.
Yes!
He stole her lips up close. One might be tempted to say, Is there anything thats actually going to be different from before? But at the very least, this would bring about a major change in the way they felt about each other.
After they kissed, as if their extinguished flame had been reignited in an instant, they passionately and heatedly made love to each other for the second time tonight.
Haaah Haaah.
HuffHuff.
Huff
.
Ryuichi was unusually short of breath, as was Shizuna. They both looked up at the ceiling as they caught their breath and looked at each other from either side.
Haha.
Ehehe.
They then hugged each other again.
Thus, Ryuichi and Shizuna came to build a new relationship with each other. It may have seemed like itd taken them a long yet short amount of time to get to this point, but needless to say, at least the relationship between the two had become what they both wanted.
It feels like Im dreaming.
Really?
Yup. Thats just how happy I am.
What if this really is a dream? she muttered, to which Ryuichi replied with a laugh that it was not a dream at all.
He knew that Chisa, Satsuki, and Sakie would surelyno,definitelygive them their blessing, no doubt about it. He didnt know if it would make them a little sad or not, but it likely wouldnt make any difference to his relationship with them.

Are you really okay? With me not changing anything with the others like Chisa and Satsuki?
Yup. Chisa-san and the other girls are important to me, too. Thats why its okay.
Youre seriously such a strong woman, Shizuna.
Ive been with you for so long now, so obviously Id have to be strong, you know?
Youre getting too strong, he remarked, this time stroking her head roughly. She was concerned that her hair would get messed up a little too late, but she had a glowing smile on her face as she was being roughly stroked on the head all the while.
