Chapitre 71: #71 Vixen and Sae-chan
"Who are you looking for anyway?" Ichinose asked me with a smile, it was easy to see that she was in a good mood but I guess she looks like that permanently.
"A few girls from my class, Karuizawa-san is also among them." I answered with a casual smile while looking around. Although, I was positively sure that Kei is just taking her sweet time getting changed. After all, she has to wait for everyone else to leave.
We were walking close to each other, our shoulders were almost touching with each step we took but there was a slightly awkward silence. I noticed her taking a few glances at me while opening her mouth to say something but in the end, she never said anything.
"Heh, aren't you going to ask about my scars?" I chuckled lightly.
"Ah?! I am sorry if it was so obvious. I am indeed curious about them but it would be rude of me to ask, after all, we aren't that...close to begin with" She panicked a bit at the beginning but she quickly regained her calm, however, there was a slight pause when she mentioned our relationship between us.
"Yeah...you are from Class B and I am from Class D so it's normal that our relationship won't be that strong." I casually mentioned.
"Wha? Hehe, I didn't mean it that way, I think we can be good friends even though we belong to a different class. What I meant is that...I indeed feel like I can trust Walker-kun with anything but...I don't know if Walker-kun feels the same way..." She laughed a bit at the beginning but that was soon replaced with a slightly sad smile.
Well, it's easy to gain her trust so it's not that surprising.
"I guess even rivals can be friends, heh. Don't worry about it too much, I have no problem to talk about it to even complete stranger. However, if it will make you feel better then I can tell you that I was already prepared to tell you" Although my reply might have sounded a little bit cold, I still showed her reassuring smile.
"Hehe, if you truly don't mind then please..." Ichinose giggled when she heard my slightly cold reply while everyone else would try to cheer her up.
"Don't get your hopes up by expecting some kind of tale where I was fighting against evil while rescuing damsels in distress..." I couldn't help but say when I saw Ichinose's excited expression.
She simply nodded a few times and urged me to continue.
"Simply put, I used to live in the mountains together with my master while practicing kendo. My master was very strict but don't misunderstand... I have never thought about it as abusement, I am very grateful to him." I explained to her with the best nostalgic smile I could muster up.
"I see...But even though you have lived such a desolated life, you still can be very funny!" She sounded a bit sad when she saw my nostalgic smile but she quickly changed to her hyped mood and praised me with a genuinely happy smile.
Maybe she wants to ask more about 'my master' or about my parents but I guess she can't bring herself to ask me. Well, we are almost in the second section so I guess no need to keep up this conversation any longer.
"Now that I think about it, Walker-kun isn't member of any club... Why not join the kendo club?" She asked me with a confused expression while holding her chin with her hand.
"That's because of my master's teachings...Ugh" When we walked in the second section I couldn't spot anyone except for 2 women lying on the lounger.
Ichinose noticed my weird expression however even when she looked towards the same direction as me, she couldn't realize why.
"Oh?! Hoshinomiya-sensei is really here. Walker-kun, let's go greet them, it seems that there is also your homeroom teacher." Ichinose giggled and took hold of my hand, dragging me towards that vixen. I could already feel trouble coming my way.
"Hoshinomiya-sensei, Chabashira-sensei!" Ichinose called out and lightly bowed as a greeting but she forgot to let go of my hand which would prove to be a fatal mistake.
Both of them opened their eyes when they heard Ichinose and sat up straight.
When my and Sae-chan's eyes met, she looked slightly surprised by my presence, she even hold her hands in front of her as if to cover herself.
Is she ashamed for being seen by me or what?
"Hello, Hoshinomiya-sensei and Sa *cough* Chabashira-sensei" I was so used to calling my homeroom teacher informally that I almost said my usual greetings when we are alone.
Sae-chan also noticed it but sighed in relief when she heard me, my words also made a mischievous smile appear on her face, maybe she was happy to hear me speak to her using a title and with much more respect than usual.
I guess I was getting on her nerves with my informality but I can't help but speak to her like that since she is about the same age as me.
"Oh?! If it isn't Honami-chan and...together with Felix-kun, hoho" Hoshinomiya, vixen immediately mysteriously laughed when she saw Ichinose hold my hand. Ichinose also noticed it and quickly let go of my hand with an awkward laugh while rubbing the back of her head.
When Sae-chan heard her words, she slightly frowned but no one noticed it.
I feel trouble just by hearing her call out my first name.
"Hehe, I am here as you have requested sensei." Ichinose said and also explained why I was there with her.
"I see, I see...Felix-kun, how about you do me a favor since you are already here?" She asked me with a naughty smile but she didn't even wait for my answer before continuing.
"Would you be so kind as to help me apply sunscreen on-"
"No, thank you" I coldly replied even before she could finish her sentence with a warm smile and closed eyes.
"-my back...Hauu, how cold! Sae-chan, how can your student be so cold?!" She started to fake her sobbing while Sae-chan just shook her head, however, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
"Hm? Hoshinomiya-sensei, I don't think Walker-kun intended to be rude, he is probably not comfortable since he doesn't know you that much. How about I help you apply the sunscreen for you?" Ichinose quickly tried to comfort her.
"I am so experienced yet I can't see through one boy...how humiliating" Hoshinomiya sobbed a few times and muttered but everyone was able to hear her words.
Tch, vixen! I thought with a slightly disgusted expression and Sae-chan face palmed herself. The only one who didn't get the meaning of her words was Ichinose who was looking at us with a confused expression.
"Please do, Honami-chan. You are really kind. Felix-kun, if you aren't comfortable with me then how about your own homeroom teacher Sae-chan?" She asked me with a playful smile.
When I heard her words I unconsciously looked at Sae-chan once again. She was wearing a black bikini that possibly couldn't entirely contain her voluptuous body which made her look even sexier.
"Hey wait, don't drag me-" Sae-chan tried to retort but she was stopped by her friend.
"Sae-chan, you won't be able to apply it on your back alone. Why not use kindness of your student?"
"But you said...ugh!" To my disbelief, Sae-chan gave up too quickly. Maybe there is really no hope in arguing with her, she is her friend so I wouldn't know.
"So how about it, Felix-kun?" She asked me when she saw that Sae-chan stopped resisting.
...She really has got me right now. Was it her intention from the beginning?
Maybe she didn't expect me to decline her request but having Ichinose here she could easily redirect me to Sae-chan. While I indeed can refuse but that would humiliate Sae-chan because it would be the same as saying that she isn't a good teacher and I am not comfortable around her.
I looked Sae-chan in the eyes and she did the same and I could instantly feel her helplessness.
Tch, although I don't want to make that vixen happy by admitting defeat, I owe Sae-chan a lot. I asked her for a lot of favors and she never wanted anything back. I guess it's my time to return the favor and if I am about to do it, I should at least make some counter-attacks at that vixen. I won't fall without taking you with me!
A gentle smile appeared on my face.
"Of course I wouldn't mind it when it concerns Chabashira-sensei's health. I wouldn't want my precious teacher to get a sunburn!" I quickly agreed without trying to talk my way out of it.
Both the vixen and Sae-chan looked at me with a surprised expression but Sae-chan quickly buried her face into the towel lying on her lounger.
Didn't think I would accept it without any excuses, huh? If I could, I would have a wicked smile on my face right now.
"Wha? Haauu, how cold? How could you accept it so easily when it comes to Sae-chan? What does she have and I don't?" The vixen started sobbing once again but this time she sounded really sincere.
Maybe dignity?! I had to hold myself back, not to shout it out.
"Come one, Hoshinomiya-sensei. Please just lie down on your stomach so I can apply the sunscreen." Ichinose who remained silent for a long time finally spoke out.
I approached Sae-chan's lounger but when I arrived I couldn't help but feel slightly awkward.
"Just get over with it" Her voice was muffled because her face was still buried in the towel, she abruptly tried to give me a sunscreen bottle without even looking. Thanks to my superior reflexes I was able to avoid a fist in my balls but I still felt a cold sweat pouring down on my back.
I took the bottle from her and poured a fair amount onto my hands.
...It's pretty cold
Since I am doing it for her, I should at least rub it a few times in my hands, to reduce the coldness even by a bit.
...
When I started to apply the sunscreen on her back she shivered a bit due to the coldness but it wasn't that bad.
"*Did you rub it in your hands beforehand?*" I heard a muffled voice.
"*Yeah*" I whispered because I didn't want that vixen to hear us.
"*...t-thanks*" She only said that and remained silent.
...
Alright, I rub it almost everywhere but now I have a dilemma. Should I rub it even under the strings of her bikini or not? ...Whatever.
I shrugged my shoulders and with one hand, I lifted the strings of her bikini and applied the sunscreen under it. However, when I did that, she shivered even more than before.
Yikes! I doubt that was due to the coldness of the sunscreen but she didn't say anything so I guess it's a natural reaction.
When I was done, I noticed that there were still a few leftovers of the sunscreen on my hands so I decided not to waste it and I rubbed it on her legs but far enough away from the danger zone. She once again shivered but not so much as the second time.
"*It's done*" I whispered and expected her to let me go, however,...
"*...You have already started my legs so finish your job*" I had a really hard time hearing her because she said it in low voice and that low voice was even further muffled.
I was slightly shocked when I heard her but a teasing smile immediately appeared on my face.
"*Hmm. Did Sae-chan turn to be lazy just from being taken care of for a few minutes?*" I bent down and whispered right next to her ear.
"*...Shut...up*" Although I couldn't see her face, by her voice I imagined that she is probably blushing right now.
Well... quite a cute reply, I guess it won't hurt to finish it completely.
I looked at her oily back from the sunscreen more accurately and thought: Maybe I won't need to find any material tonight before going to sleep to forget the thing with that crazy girl and Hirata...
