195 Intruder

The school day soon ended, and then came the usual wait in the classroom for the hallways to clear as well as the calm walk up to the accessway that connected the main lecture building to the secondary club building. It's actually been quite some time since I've taken this path, and it's actually quite surprising to me how the scenery had changed.

I looked out from the accessway, feeling the cold, winter air as it blew on my face in a piercing manner. However, I ignored the slight discomfort that the cold and dry winter wind brought and focused on the beautiful scenery. From here, I could look out and see the beautiful skyline of Palisia where the windows of the skyscrapers reflected the blue sky overhead. In the distant horizon, a plane flew by from the airport located just outside the city to the north, occasionally being obscured by the skyscrapers that stood before it.

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" Loyd stopped by my side and also looked over the railing and at the school grounds as well as the sprawling city before us.

"Yeah," I responded, listening to this new voice of mine and still trying to familiarize myself with it.

"Well," Loyd softly chuckled as he took a small step back from the railings. "Let's not let the others wait too long."

For a brief moment, there was a somewhat awkward, maybe even considered rigid, moment where he seemed as if he wanted to raise his arm in my direction but restrained himself. However, there was still that slight movement which had caught my eye, causing me to look up from his arm and into his eyes.

"Is something the matter?" he asked when I stared into his eyes.

"Nothing," I shook my head. "Let's go."

Then, I walked past him and towards the door on the other side of the accessway where the Irina was holding the door for me. Loyd waited momentarily, almost as if he was thinking about something, but he soon started walking as well, and with his larger stride, caught up with me in a few steps. Irina was holding the door for the two of us, and I smiled and thanked her when I finally entered the secondary club building and escaped from the winter frost.

With the sound of the door unlocking, Loyd slid open the door to the club room, and once again, I was greeted with the familiar scenery of the room. There still existed the long, rectangular table with school chairs neatly tucked in on each side. The same cabinets were present, the same lights, and the same decorations on the wall. Everything just appeared to be as the way that I had last seen it, which has been for a while now.

Upon entering, I stopped in my footsteps, confused as to where my seat will be. The others walked past me and mobilized to their usual spots. Muria walked over to her chair by the closed window and Irina walked over and sat down in the seat next to hers. Loyd first went to the air conditioner to activate the heater before he went to his usual spot on the left side of the long table. Then there was Noah, who wandered over to the seat next to Loyd's and sat down where he usually did so.

I looked over at the seat that 'Alevian' used, which was the one closest to the door and the one that's slightly further from the other seats. I frowned as I recognized the fact that I will be unable to use this seat as it is not for 'Alvelyn'. Therefore, once again, I felt the awkwardness and that slight feeling of loneliness in my mind that stemmed from the fact that I am no longer myself and have to endure such a feeling for a month.

"Alvelyn!" Irina called my name, waving in my direction. "Come on."

With a slight show of hesitation, I clenched onto the strap of my school bag that I wore over my shoulder like a purse and walked over to her. However, upon closing my distance with her, I realized that my body slowly relaxed, and I believe that this was due to the welcoming atmosphere Irina and Muria, to some extent, had displayed towards me. With a confident smile on my face, I carefully tucked my skirt against my back thighs and sat down on the chair.

The day went on as usual, or it should've gone on, as usual, depending on how one would define usual to be now that I am in a girl's body. Zaksus showed up soon after us, greeting us in the energy that only someone that participated in sports would. Based off of his reaction to seeing me, it would appear that he also had memories of 'Alvelyn' created. Whatever the case may be, things went on as smooth as it could possibly go. That is until Luna arrived.

The door slid open, revealing a familiar figure at the door standing beside Luna. If I've recalled correctly, this new girl is...Erith, Luna's best friend. I have a pretty deep impression of her. It is quite hard to forget someone who has slapped you in the face in the past. Therefore, seeing her, it automatically made my now more frail body tense up.

"So this is the place that tore my Luna away from the student council," Erith said out loud when she entered and looked around.

"Erith," Luna whispered to her friend in a restraining manner almost like a mother scolding a child that has said something that they should not have said.

"So," Erith ignored Luna's warnings, eliciting a sigh from the girl, and continued on. "Where's that boy?"

"You're looking for someone?" Loyd asked, speaking first out of everyone else in the room as he was technically the club president if we even have that position.

"Yeah," Erith nodded. Her voice was...how do I describe it...rather mature like. It's as if it was made to be used to tease others in a... lascivious manner. "The boy who is messing with my Luna's heart over here."

"Erith!" Luna's face turned a scarlet color as she took a step towards Erith in panic, bringing her hands to Erith's face intending to stop her from saying anything else.

"Now, where is Alevian?" Erith continued after gently pushing Luna's arm away from her. She took another step into the room, looking around until her eyes lingered on me. "You look oddly like him."

Luna tried to stop her, but she ultimately forfeited the effort as Erith took large strides in my direction. Then, she performed a surprising gesture. She brought her right kneecap up onto the chair that I was sitting on, forcing my legs apart such that her kneecap rested on the padded school chair, and with two slender fingers, lifted my chin up as she brought her face close to mine. It was so close, that I could feel the air that she breathed out hitting my face.

I gulped as I was petrified in place by those fierce and yet oddly playful eyes of hers. In addition, my mind was further clouded by the scent of her perfume as well as the shape of her slender lips that was slightly upturned at the corner as if she was in an amused state of mind.

"You're his sister?" she whispered to me in a rather lewd voice. "You're pretty cute."

"Hey!"Irina stood up from her chair in an angered manner. "Stop. Can't you see that she's uncomfortable?"

"So," Erith brought her arms gently around my head, slowly bringing it close to her chest as she rested the side of her face on top of my head in an oddly erotic manner. "If I make her comfortable, then it's fine?"

"That's um..." Irina blushed at what Erith was suggesting.

As I was being suffocated by Erith's soft breasts as well as the fragrance of her perfume, I looked over in Muria's direction and met eyes with her. Like I had expected, no other stimulus from me was needed for her to come to Irina's aid.

"Would you stop with your lewd behaviors?" Muria crossed her arms and sighed. "I would expect more decency out of a student at this school."

"So is Ms. Perfect over there getting mad?" Erith chuckled in an amused manner and continued in a seductive voice. "Because Ms. Cuty over here isn't pushing me away?"

I saw a look of hesitation on Muria's usually composed countenance, which surprised me greatly. She's usually someone who is unfazed by anything, yet for some reason, Erith just seems to be able to overpower that naturally calm demeanor. Looks like I better step in before things get worse and Muria's image is ruined.

With a sigh, I decided to take action. "Can you give me some space?" I said out loud, bringing my hands over to push her away.

However, to my surprise, what my hands came into contact with were...oddly soft. I understand that a girl's body is usually soft, but...not to this extent. When Erith finally took a small step back and released me from her hug, I saw that my two hands were on her breasts.

With a somewhat surprised and yet unfazed look on her face, Erith looked down and at her breasts which were still in contact with my hands. From the corner of my eye, I saw Irina's face as well as Zaksus's turn red. However, that's not important right now. What is though, is that smile on Erith's face.

"I'm just kidding," she softly chuckled. "I like men, so can you let go of my boobs now?"

"S-sorry," I stuttered somewhat out of embarrassment.

"Maybe girls as well," Erith then smiled and winked in my direction. "I'm not exactly sure about that part though. You want to experiment?"

Upon hearing that statement, I felt my face warm up as blood rushed to my cheeks, causing me to blush. The combination of Erith's naturally seductive, mature, and lascivious voice and her pretty appearance was over what I could handle in my already flustered state. Her words proved to be critical to me, causing to me to blush and stop in all my thinking as this sense of embarrassment caused my brain to just stop.

"Erith," Luna called her name in a warning tone.

"I'm sorry, Luna," Erith laughed. Then, she turned towards Irina and Muria before she lowered her head. "I was just messing around, so please accept my apology."

"F-fine I guess?" Irina's voice was somewhat wavering and unsure. She glanced at Muria from the corner of her eye to see what her reaction would be.

"Fine," Muria sighed, crossing her arms before her chest.

"Oh, and one more thing," Erith turned and looked over at me. "You know when Alevian would be back?"

"In a month?" I responded, my voice trailing off from my lack of confidence. I glanced over at Noah from the corner of my eye in search of his confirmation but was only greeted with him trying desperately to hold in his laughter.

"A month," Erith brought a finger to her chin. Then, she turned over to look at Loyd. "May I join the club?"

"Huh?" A soft sound of surprise escaped from Luna.

"I don't want him to be able to flee," Erith explained. "And ever since she joined this club, Luna hasn't been spending enough time with me."
