BBQ Party

"Cheat day? What is that?" Umi asked.

"If you're on a diet then your body will enter a low-energy state. Then your body will decide to enter low energy mode. To correct this, you have a "Cheat Day". You delude your body into thinking, "I have enough calories" by daring to over-eat," Haru explained. He told them how to do a diet and rather than cutting down the food, it was better to lower the calories since all of them were a growing up girl.

If they didn't eat normally then their growth would be stumped.

"Stumped?!"

Everyone was looking at Nico at that moment.

"....."

Nico was startled and then became furious. "Why the hell are you all looking at me?!" She hurriedly covered her chest and stared at Haru with teary eyes.

"....."

"Cough! Cough! I'll try to gather a sponsor so you'll get healthy food to maintain your figure later," Haru said.

"Wait, wait, a sponsor?" Umi was startled.

Haru nodded and said, "A-Rise, Futari Girls, ...." He listed a number of school idols that were popular on Love Live School Idol. "All of them receive various support from companies, schools, etc and of course, they also receive a sponsor."

"Sponsor, huh?" Nico rubbed her chin and nodded. "We're going to be super popular and I guess it is normal for us to have a sponsor."

"Yes, but you need to use the money sponsor wisely and not to use it for an idol's items..." Haru glanced at Nico at this moment with a speechless expression.

Nico looked away with a blush and said with a bright smile, "Hanayo-chan, do you want to eat rice? It's very good."

"...."

However, Hanayo didn't seem to glance at the rice and also looked at Nico with an expressionless expression.

Haru heard that they had received a club fund from the school, but all of the money had been used by Nico to buy an idol's item such as CD, posters, etc.

"So what are we going to do with the money sponsor?" Eli asked.

"Well, there are a lot of things such as healthy food for your diet. You can ask your school cafeteria to prepare for you later," Haru said.

Hearing Haru's proposal, they nodded and felt that it was a good thing to do, especially Umi, who nodded several times since she knew that Honoka and Hanayo had an unhealthy diet.

"Then you can use some for your costume, stage, decoration, etc." Haru then noticed the gaze of Honoka, Rin, and Hanayo who couldn't look away from the meat. "We can discuss this matter later. Let's have a BBQ first." Even if everyone had decided to become an idol, in the end, they were a normal high school girl after all.

Though, at the same time, it was the thing which made them attractive.

"Yay!"

Everyone was eating the bear meat with a smile since it tasted delicious.

Haru had marinated the meat so it had erased the gamey smell on the meat.

"Don't forget to eat the vegetables!" Umi put vegetables on the plate of Honoka, Rin, and Hanayo.

"Eh....?!" 3x

Haru only shook his head and continued to grill the BBQ.

"Haru, you're not eating?" Eli asked.

"I can eat later. My hands are full after all." Haru was grilling the meat and other ingredients. When he was cooking, he wanted to focus on himself since he wanted to give them the best foods.

"Then, I'll feed you." Eli blushed and took some meat with a chopstick ready to feed him.

"..."

Haru blinked his eyes and opened his mouth. "Ahh..."

Eli fed the meat to Haru and asked with a smile, "How is it?"

"It's good."

Haru ate the meat and had to admit the food which he grilled was really good, but then someone nudged his side.

"I'll feed you too." Maki also took meat with her chopstick and tried to feed him.

"..."

Haru blinked his eyes and opened his mouth to eat the meat.

"Is it good?" Maki asked while smiling.

"It's good."

"Haru, here, open your mouth again," Eli said and fed him again.

"Eat more," Maki said and fed him again.

Eli and Maki tried to feed him at the same time, so he could only eat those mentas since he knew that was the only way to make the situation harmonious.

---

Nozomi was also eating, but her eyes had always been staring at Maki, Eli, and Haru. She loved meat after all and of course, even if her mood wasn't good, she would keep eating since her mood wasn't good.

"Nozomi-chan, what's wrong?" Kotori asked.

"Hmm... what do you mean, Kotori-chan?" Nozomi asked.

"I can see that you've been looking at him," Kotori said while looking at Haru. Her opinion about Haru was pretty complicated since he had seen him working in the maid cafe and she was glad that he didn't tell anyone, but at the same time, she knew he had a lot of relationships with various girls. However, she had never told anyone about it.

Unlike two of her childhood friends, Umi and Honoka, Kotori wasn't as dumb as Kotori and she wasn't as sheltered as Umi. She knew about the relationship between boy and girl and she knew that Haru wasn't a good guy, but this guy was very attractive.

However, it seemed that he didn't have an interest in her so she didn't do anything about it. She also could see that his relationship between Maki and Eli was pretty complicated and she didn't want to make it even more complicated.

Kotori also thought that the reason why he decided to become a producer was because of Maki and Eli.

'Then....'

Kotori thought that Nozomi also had feelings for Haru, but when she looked at Eli, she knew why Nozomi didn't do anything.

"Kotori-chan, you're very sharp..." Nozomi smiled and then she raised both of her hands, aiming at Kotori's cute boobs. "For a sharp girl, let me give you a gift."

"N, Nozomi-chan... what's with those hands? W, where are you aiming?! S, stop...!" Kotori's eyes turned watery and she moved back slowly.

"Fufufufu.... I want to see your Kotori-chan grow!"

"NOOO!!!!!"

---

"What are they doing?" Nico shook her head and continued to eat the meat since it was a rare chance. 'Damn, it's so delicious.'

"Nico-chan, you eat more meat so you'll grow up," Rin said.

"Ha?! What do you mean by that?!" Nico glared at Rin.

"N, nothing, nyaa!" Rin hurriedly ran behind Hanayo with a scared expression.

Honoka looked at everyone and said, "It's a very good day!" Though, she was wondering why she felt uncomfortable when she saw Haru, Maki, and Eli together.

---

The party quickly ended and everyone helped to clean up since they had eaten so much meat.

Haru told them that he would help them to make a MV, but he told them to prepare for the concert of their school first so they could gain support from every student at their school.

Everyone nodded and they were ready to prepare themselves for next week's concert.

Then they quickly returned home, Haru offered to send them back, but they didn't want to trouble him that much. He didn't mind and was about to go home, but someone stopped him.

"Haru, can we talk for a bit?"

Haru looked at the girl in front of him. He nodded and said, "Sure, how about we talk inside?" He knew that he needed to solve this matter or else, it would become even more complicated.
