What transpired between a young man and woman sharing the same space
shouldn’t require much elaboration.
Kei drew my arm further into her embrace.
Except for the time we were changing our shoes after arriving at the gate, we
were stuck together from start to finish until we entered the classroom.
“Everyone, good morning~”
It was the start of the third term. Upon entering, Kei waved to her friends in
the class. She slowly released her hands from around me and winked at me saying,
‘see you later.’ Leaving behind that deep affection, she left. Afterward, I moved
inside the classroom to my seat and placed down my lightly-filled bag.
Ever since tablets were introduced in classes, we didn’t need to carry as
many things, but the bag was still indispensable.
“Damn, don’t come to school like that. It’s embarrassing, Ayanokōji.”
Sudō, who was already in the classroom, looked awkward as he called out to
me.
“Going to school arm in arm, isn’t that the peak of cheerful people? Dammit,
I’m envious.”
Although he found the situation embarrassing, he was somewhat envious of
it.
“I want to clarify that it wasn’t my idea.”
“Obviously! Hell, it’d be seriously creepy if you’d wanted that, for real.”
He continued to murmur, objecting to the idea, while bringing his face closer
to mine.
“Being lovey-dovey is fine and all, but have you seen the school’s email
about first-years being caught during winter break? I’m not worried about you
guys, but just be careful.”
“Oh yeah, I did see that email.”
Near the end of winter break, an email arrived from the school stating that
penalties were imposed on two first-year students.
The names were kept anonymous, but it was said that a male and female
student were spotted by a third party, engaging in an act deemed as an impure
interaction.
Any activities with the intent of sexual stimulation were strictly prohibited,
so they naturally were punished.
“They should’ve just done it indoors. How about you? What are your
thoughts as a senpai?”
“What do you mean, ‘how about me’?”
“Do you... want to do various things... outside?”
He shouldn’t have asked if it made him so embarrassed, but I didn’t say that.
