Chapitre 44: Chapter 44: Trio Wants Party
Returning to his seat, Hikari tidied up his student ID and other documents, preparing to head off and apply for a club membership.
Just then, the trio of gyaru girls approached, gathering around his desk.
Without looking up, Hikari asked, "You three again? What is it now?"
"Hey, that's cold, Hikari-kun. Can't you at least look up at us?" They whined in feigned disappointment.
Without thinking, he lifted his gaze.
"Smack!"
The moment he looked up, Ruri, the white-haired girl with twin tails, seized his neck, leaned in, and pressed her soft lips firmly against his!
"Muah~!"
After the kiss, Ruri stepped back with a triumphant grin, striking a bold pose with her thumb pointing to herself. "Hah! Guess what, Hikari-kun. Your first kiss wasn't stolen by Natsuha—it was taken by me, Ruri Kurumizaka."
Seizing the opportunity, Reina leaned in next. "Muah~!"
Then Yukina finished off the playful assault, sneaking in a quick flick of her tongue.
"Muah~!"
They all stood back, hands on their hips, laughing triumphantly.
"Haha! Your second kiss wasn't with Natsuha either. It was with me, Reina Hamazaki."
"And the third? That was with me, Yukina Sasaki."
Left speechless by this string of ambush kisses, Hikari froze, completely dazed.
Meanwhile, the commotion had drawn the attention of the entire class. Students looked over in shock, their expressions ranging from disbelief to amusement.
Several girls, like Chizuru Shiina, blushed and covered their eyes, unable to look directly. But they still peeked through their fingers, curiosity getting the better of them.
The boys in the class, however, all shot Hikari envious, jealous glares, watching as he was surrounded by three bold beauties.
A brooding student, Morishita, nudged his desk-mate with his elbow. "Hey, Ayato, you jealous?"
Ayato Haruno, with his cute, innocent looks, wiped a bit of drool away and replied earnestly, "N-no, not jealous at all. I have my own Kasumi-nee-chan, who's way better than them." [T/N: For those who are wondering, he is from Netosis, I will add picture shortly.]

As the three girls stood there, hands on their hips and laughing in satisfaction, Hikari could only cover his mouth, feeling completely at a loss.
'What the hell? So this is their so-called revenge.'
He had to admit, he was feeling a bit awkward. Hikari usually didn't care much about appearances, but being ambushed like this by three girls in front of everyone… it was a bit much, even for him.
But the real issue wasn't about pride. He had to restrain himself from retaliating—not because of honor or anything, but because he knew if he actually kissed them back, they'd react in a big way.
His tongue was far more… skilled than theirs, and he knew a few gentle moves would leave them blushing and stammering, probably flustered for the whole day.
But no way would he let things escalate in public like that. If someone caught it on video and posted it, he'd never live it down.
And about the whole first kiss thing? Hikari didn't mind at all.
His first kiss hadn't been with Natsuha Shinomiya either; he'd actually given it away back in preschool to Mrs. Mira.
These girls were probably still in diapers back then, so their triumphant smirks didn't really faze him. Plus, after what happened yesterday with Natsuha, the idea that these three thought they were his firsts was a little… well, laughable.
But as he observed them, he could see their attempts at bravado were covering up a blush on each of their faces. He figured it was probably their first kiss, after all.
If he had more time, he would've liked to teach these brats a lesson for their troublemaking, but he had his club application to handle, so he simply sighed, saying, "Fine, you win. Now move aside, I've got stuff to do."
The trio, however, weren't about to let him go so easily. They surrounded him in a triangle formation, each blocking his way.
"Nope! You're not going anywhere."
"When are you taking us to your place for a party?"
"Promise us you'll take us there, or we're not letting you go!"
Looking at the massive barrier formed by their… sizeable assets, Hikari didn't hesitate. He braced himself and did a light, firm shove forward.
"Eek!"
They let out surprised yelps as they stumbled back.
By the time they recovered and looked around, Hikari had already left the classroom and vanished down the hallway.
"Darn! Hikari-kun slipped away again." Reina grumbled.
"What can we say, he's just too slick," Yukina replied, sighing.
Ruri on the other hand, smirked. "It's fine. Based on that 'first kiss' we just stole, he's got no experience. Completely inexperienced."
Reina's eyes sparkled. "Exactly! I could tell too. He's totally a… you know, a virgin."
Yukina grinned mischievously. "Which means that when we finally get him over to our place, he'll be putty in our hands."
Ruri chimed in, "A virgin, and that well-built? Oh, he's definitely falling under my spell."
Reina added, "He's not getting away. I'm definitely going to show him what a real woman's like."
Yukina raised her fist, laughing. "Three against one, with him being totally inexperienced—oh, we've got this in the bag."
Full of confidence, the trio of girls were convinced they'd have Hikari wrapped around their fingers before long.
"Hold on, though… we still don't know when Hikari-kun's usually at home," Reina realized, frowning.
Yukina snapped her fingers. "Simple! When school's out at noon, we'll follow him home today and finally get that party started."
"Perfect!"
"Let's go with that plan."
What Hikari didn't realize was that his classmates weren't the only ones who had witnessed the gyaru trio's ambush.
One other person saw it all.
—
Recently, Akane Nanao had been going through some rocky times with her boyfriend, Shouya Katase. She'd noticed that Shouya seemed to be getting close with Coach Togo, who often gave her unsettling looks.
It made her uneasy, and she remembered Hikari's offer of support if she ever needed it.
Wanting to talk, she'd gone to Hikari's classroom, only to find him surrounded by the gyaru trio, receiving kisses one after the other.
At first, like Chizuru and the other girls, Akane shyly covered her eyes, cheeks turning red.
But soon after, a wave of envy bubbled up within her.
'Why can Hikari-kun and those girls kiss each other so openly, while Shouya and I… can't even call each other by our first names?'
'What's even the point of my relationship with Shoya?'
'Even if we do get together someday, would he ever hold my hand in front of Coach Togo?'
