Chapter 37

Later in the year…

"You're back late," Twilight said as he came through the door. "Were you held up somewhere or was the traffic that bad?"

"Both. I was at my parents' place with Yuri so we could try and get ourselves out of this mess. Her parents were there too, and her mom practically fainted when Yuri came out of the closet and confessed to already having a girlfriend for a while. There were arguments about what to do now. My dad then told Yuri and me that we can leave and that he'll keep us updated. I don't know if they're still arguing, but the drive back was exhausting."

"Sounds messy, but low-key wish I was there with popcorn."

"Speaking of going somewhere, where are you going all dressed up?"

"Nowhere yet, but I'll tell you later."

"Ok. Are those heels?"

"They're only one and a half inches, so I don't know if it counts, especially since the ankle straps make them look like sandals."

"I think the block-like structure makes them count, but what do I know? By the way, a package came for you," He gave it to her. "I think it's your new laptop."

"Finally. That reminds me, while I was using yours, you got an email from the university. I didn't open it, so I have no idea what it says. I'll leave you to decide when to open it."

"I'll open it now."

"Are you sure? I can hear your heart racing."

"I was about to take a nap, but I doubt my nerves will let me enjoy it, so I might as well get it over and done with."

"Ok then."

He opened his laptop and was silent for a while.

"What does it say?"

"I got in."

"That's great, but you don't look happy. What's up?"

"You know that this means I'll be away for months for the next four years, right? Are you sure you're ok with that?"

"Don't worry about me. I'll be ok; Oreo will keep me company. And we can always call and video chat. It'll take some time, but we'll get used to it. Besides, it's only four years, not forever. Oh, and I can meet your grandparents too."

"Have I ever told you that you're the best girlfriend ever?"

"No, but I wouldn't mind hearing it more often."

"You got it, best girlfriend ever."

"But I have a request. No way in hell are we going to do that whole hang-up-no-you-hang-up-first nonsense. If you tell me to hang up, I'll most definitely hang up on your ass."

"Noted."

"Do you still want to take that nap?"

"Not anymore."

"So about where I'm going. I had a feeling the email had good news so I made last-minute plans for us to go out."

"How did you manage to find a nice place at this time?"

"That's not important. Go get ready."

"Ok, but will you, at least, tell me where we're going?"

"It's a surprise that's within walking distance."

Later…

"Are you sure we're at the right place? It seems empty for a restaurant."

"Yes, this is the right place. Come on." She dragged him inside.

"Surprise!" All his friends exclaimed.

"What's all this?"

"This is sort of a congratulatory party. We had it planned since you told me where you wanted to study. The place usually isn't busy at this time of the year so renting without a specific date wasn't a problem. We were just waiting for the right time to set everything up. It helped that you were gone for longer than expected."

"Thanks, guys. It really means a lot."

After an hour, everyone was a little drunk.

"Anyone up for truth or dare? That or spin the bottle." Ayaka said.

"Truth or dare." They all answered.

"I'll go first then," Ayaka said. "Takumi, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to take your shirt off."

"What?"

"A dare is a dare. And no take-backsies or whatever you call it." Twilight said.

"Fine." He unbuttoned it and took it off.

"That's a fine boy," Ayaka commented.

"Correction, man," Twilight said.

"For real," Atsumi added in.

"Alright. Uh... Keito, truth or dare?"

"Truth."

"Is it true that you like Atsumi?"

"Oo."

"Yes."

"I smell a ship coming on," Ayaka said.

"Ichiya, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to stop using those ridiculous pickup lines."

"That's actually a good one," Hansuke commented.

"Fine. Atsumi, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

"I dare you to go on a date with Kei-kun tomorrow."

"Underhanded, but smart. Tisiphone, I dare you..."

"Hey, aren't you supposed to ask me truth or dare?"

"We all know that you were going to pick dare."

"Fair point."

"I dare you to tell us whether you and Takumi have had sex."

"That's a little personal, don't you think?"

"Hold it, Short Stuff, you said it yourself that a dare is a dare."

"And no take-backsies," Takumi said.

"Alright, fine. Yes, multiple times. Happy now?"

"The "multiple times" part wasn't needed but yes."

"Anyway, I dare everyone to get more drunk than they already are."

"Best one so far," Hansuke said.

"You know, your shirtlessness is really distracting."

"How much?"

"Too much."

She straddled his lap and kissed him again. He moved his hands down to grope her ass, earning a moan.

"Ew, get a room." Ayaka fake gagged.

"That's not a bad idea."

He picked her up and slung her over his shoulder before leaving.

When they got there, he sat her down on the dresser and they ravaged each other's lips.

"Oh wait, we haven't had dinner." She said.

"Oh yeah. What do you suggest?"

"Something that my mom once made."

"And what's that?"

"Me," She bit her bottom lip suggestively and unbuckled his belt.

"I'll definitely have that."

He went on his knees in front of her, and threw her legs over his shoulders, keeping his hands on her thighs. He blew into her, sending a jolt throughout her entire body, and she fisted his blonde locks. He circled his tongue against her clit, and that got her hips moving. He put his hands on them to keep them still and plunged his tongue in and out of her.

The next morning, he woke up with a headache and something heavy on her chest, more like someone. She moved him off her. That was the plan until she discovered that her wrists were handcuffed to either side of the bed.

"Hey, wake up."

"It's too early to wake up on a Saturday," He mumbled.

"But it's not too early for me to kick you, so get up already. These handcuffs are digging into my wrists."
