Helping Out (2)

I nodded and patted her head dotingly, "Don't worry, I've got it covered. You can trust me, senpai. Shall I escort you back?"

"N-no... It seems you still have some business here so, I'll just... leave you to it." Yuika-senpai mumbled, her grip on my hand loosening as she made to stand up.

"Hmm... Nope. I'll walk you outside. It's fine, right, sensei?" I said as I tightened my grip on her hand before turning to Hayashi-sensei.

"Go ahead," Hayashi-sensei waved us off with a knowing smile. "Just remember, Onoda-kun, no funny business. Don't let me find you kissing someone in the hallway again."

This woman. Did she have to bring that up? Look at how it made Yuika-senpai flustered... It did happen with Marika last time so, I guess... her warning was deserved.

"I'll keep that in mind, sensei," I said with a playful smirk while waving her off. I then turned to Yuika-senpai who couldn't look at me straight, guiding her to the door.
