Lonely Loser, I’ll Become Blonde Frivolous Gyaru’s Favourite - Chapter 38

Chapter 38 – XX for a Day ⑤

After that, unstoppable flirting continued.

I wonder if until now, there was a day I have played outside so much.
Holding the hand of a girl that I get along with so much and walking in the city without any plan.
Cackling, touching each other a lot and even taking a photo in a photo booth on top of that.
And then, honestly thinking that it is fun.

That is why feeling of loneliness got stronger on a totally chilly road in the night.
Tap, tap, Tachibana was walking next to me saying almost no words. She frankly slowed down her pace and I matched mine with hers. The closer we got to her house, the slower we got.
At that time, while we were walking, she glanced at me as if worried about something,

– Jun… So, um… today’s date, was it fun?

Reluctant to part.
I felt like such a thought of hers was being conveyed through our connected hands.
Instead of answering “It was fun”, I slowly squeezed it back. As I have done that, she brightly smiled, so…

Cute. So cute. I’m embarra.s.sed and happy…
Can you believe it? I can still be, just for a little bit, such a cute girl’s boyfriend. Despite being together with her every day, I can only now understand this happiness.

Today, I’ve clasped her hand. Our arms linked.
Moreover, there was that event in the dressing room… such a thing is normally impossible. The more I cool down, the more my pulse accelerates from realizing what an outrageous thing I have done.
When tomorrow arrives, will everything really be able to return to normal?

Tachibana halted. She had wet eyes, as if wanting to bring something up.

I understand, don’t worry. I don’t intend to go home just like that as well.
Now that it has come to this, I will let you play with me until the last second.

– … There, was a park, right….

– Oh, dummy… Why do you notice all of my feelings…?

Just like when we met at noon, a bookworm and a blonde girl sat on the bench next to each other.
Perhaps, right now, it was enough for both of us. There was no need for us to go to movie, amus.e.m.e.nt park or karaoke. If we can just stay together, we can spend so many hours just like that. And that is despite us being together every day during the school term, there’s something strange with it.

– Ehehe~ One-day… boyfriend……♪

My one-day… girlfriend limply pressed her body against my left arm.

She looked like was having fun. Even though she is with someone like me, she looks like she is having fun. I still feel like seeing her happy face. Well, I may not bite her ear, but I decided to get even with her for earlier.

I lightly shook off the hand clinging to me, hugged her shoulder and… reached out my hand to her head and… caressed it.

– Kya…

– Hm. You didn’t like it…?

– No… There’s no way I can reject you, is there? Carry on…?

Her hair was soft and long. I’m sure it is difficult to care for it.
It seems she felt that I have touched her as someone important, so Tachibana eagerly brought her delicate body closer. Like that, it happened that I was embracing her with one hand and I was inevitably embarra.s.sed that I started this myself.

She let out a high voice which cannot be described in words.
I wonder if it means that she is happy? As I continued to stroke, it changed to a sigh-like voice like “Haa…”.

– When we were lovey-dovey in the morning, you have called me by the name, right…

– Lo-, lovey-dovey… Wasn’t it flirting…

– Uh huh…♪ And during noon, you called me cute

– Stop. Don’t make me recall

– Right now, you’re caressing me. You know, in truth, I always wanted you to do something like this… Jun, is it still embarra.s.sing? Oh, you’re so cute…

Our eyes met and I gulped.
A pair of lovers alone in the park at night. It’s because of this absurd situation.
With nervousness smashed into pieces, my field of vision narrowed. The only ones left in the world were me and her, and if I don’t return to the normal world quickly, I may lose that chance to return…

However, it was already late.
The couple huddling with cold air around them, were probably both feverish. Thinking just a bit, it is obvious that it will be awkward staring from the next day. Perhaps, they were both overwhelmed by this atmosphere filled with magic.

– Today, you were excessively kind… Boyfriend for a day, isn’t it outstandingly effective…?

– Unh… It’s just for today…

– Hey, can you spoil me a bit longer?

– Spoil…?

– Yeah…… Do something, boyfriend-like?

She escalated everything again.
Tachibana brushed her hair aside and stuck out her cheek to me.

– After all… I was the only one doing it

Several seconds later I finally realized what she meant.
Should I say that the fact that she has done something so naughty wearing swimsuit just a while ago, has made her extremely daring now that she is wearing clothes… I want to writhe right now.

Still, I already cannot withdraw.
Slowly and timidly I pressed my mouth against the exposed cheek.

– Mn…

– Ah…

As my lips touched soft white skin… It is unlikely that I can endure even a second.
Yet when I tried to separate from her, my clothes around the lap got pulled. As I was clinging my body to her as if pestering, my face full of embarra.s.sment was about to boil.

And then, when we separated, smile vanished from Tachibana’s face and only sadness was left on it.

– Today, is about to end…

– Yeah…

– Tomorrow onwards, I will become ex-girlfriend, you know…?

– Clinging to each other like this, we might won’t be able to do it…

– Really, I’m so full of lingering affections! What should I do from tomorrow on…

– … Tomorrow is not coming. It’s still… today.

I’m embarra.s.sed saying this myself.
I have looked away for just a moment and immediately looked at Tachibana’s expression.
… Seemingly happy from my few words just now, she had wet eyes on a smiling face. Thus, as a result of staring at each other for a while, I caught Tachibana’s flopping body.
As I was patting her back, she let out a pleased voice.
Her happiness and my happiness… Like this, both of us are about to melt.

– Hug. Lovey-dovey hug… As expected, so pleasant

– … I wonder if I am acting like a boyfriend

– Oh my gosh… Even though I’ve been always playing with you…

– Uh, that’s not like you. Isn’t it alright to play with me

– That is, already not possible… I may, not be able to look at you like that…

– Wh-, Why…?

– Be-, because. Jun… Um…

She stopped talking at that point and it became silent.

Before long, Tachibana pushed my chest, pulled away from the hug and looked at me with sad eyes.
Impelled by the uneasiness that I couldn’t be silent, I reached out to the blonde hair with my hand, but… I couldn’t find the words. I stopped midway.

Our eyes repeatedly met inches apart from each other .
Tachibana wanted to say something, and yet in the end she couldn’t put it into words.

– He-, hey… I… About Jun… About you…

Perhaps, I am failing to notice something essential.
I thought to simply let her play with me.
I just thought I’ll let her fully enjoy today.
Relaxing my guard around an important person and getting healed a lot, how great would that be…

Hey, Tachibana? Up until now and today as well, so it wasn’t a… lovely mischief with no ill will?

The longer I stay silent, the stronger becomes the look of dissatisfaction on the girl’s face and increases the feeling of desperation as if telling that she cannot endure it anymore.

– ~~! Jun… Jun…! You know…

– K, Karen…

– Haa, haa… Jun…… Sorry. I’m so… sorry

For several seconds the silence between us was filled with unbearable sadness.
Her charming lips were twitching…

My last memory of that day.
A fragile moment of directly touching her lips… and then, right after. The girl’s appearance filled with regret.
