A few hours in, I had scheduled a hangout with just Haruka, not the Ayanokoji-group and this was to discuss how to handle Airi when she hears of mine and Kei's relationship. I figured I'd tell Haruka about us beforehand and I knew she wouldn't tell anyone before Kei revealed it. I wanted to consult Haruka since she's best friends with Airi and having Akito and Keisei around wouldn't really make sense since they wouldn't really be helpful in talk like this. It was just a few days back when we had all booked the private pool but I hadn't talked to Haruka since so I thought we'd be able to catch up today.
"Thanks for taking your time to meet up with me" I said walking towards her at our determined spot.
"Oh Kiyopon, good to see you, did you want anything? It's unusual for you to call only me out instead of the whole group."
Haruka might've had the wrong idea of why I wanted to meet with her but it's fine, I'll clear it up right now.
"Yea about that, I wanted to consult you about something actually."
"Hm? Could it be that you like a girl and need advice?"
I'm sure Haruka was just teasing me but that was more-less on the money.
"Uh yea, basically but it's more detailed than that, how'd you know?"
"W-wait what?? Huhh? What're you talking about? Are you serious?? You like someone?"
"It's not that, look you have to promise not to tell anyone this until I tell you that you're allowed okay?"
"Yea sure sure but who?? It's not Airi is it??
"Yea no, the thing is...believe me but I've been going out with Kei since spring break but we had to keep our relationship secret due to some circumstances, that's basically it."
"Whaaat?? If this is a joke, it's a really bad one Kiyopon.. You.. are joking right?"
"..."
"So you're telling me, not only do you not have a crush but instead you've had a girlfriend already for the past 7 months without telling us? And the girlfriend happens to be Karuizawa-san?? I've never even seen you two interact."
"Hence why the relationship was secret, I determined that it wasn't time to tell anyone yet so we both agreed to keep it behind closed doors, but we were gonna reveal our relationship once we returned back to class..."
"Hmm.. I see.. It's just, I'd never expect Kiyopon to have a girlfriend so soon, you're always too serious and never give off the vibe of wanting to be in that sort of relationship."
"Well, I can see why you think that but I'm 17 and it's kind of been something long due for me." I replied
"I see... It's still mind blowing to me, I have no idea how the class is gonna react when they hear about it. If you don't mind me asking though, why Karuizawa-san? Hasn't she like... already involved herself with other guys and been in past relationships?"
"That's completely wrong, I've been with her for awhile now and I'll tell you right now, every single rumour about her is false rather, she's pretty pure in my eyes"
"It's weird hearing that from you but I know you don't lie but if you say so, I have no choice but to believe you. Karuizawa-san seems like a nice girl although I don't talk to her much. Good job Kiyopon."
Good job? For what?
"Yea so that's not all though, it's just that, I know that Airi has something for me too so I'm kind of worried how she'll react so I wanted to ask you to handle it when she finds out. That's why I wanted to talk to you today."
"Wow how considerate of you Kiyopon... I think we both know how much Airi is in love with you and I don't really blame you for not liking her back since I can't really force you to like someone but I think she'll definitely be heart-broken at the very least."
She's right about that..
"So can I request you give her the support she needs if she ends up really sad? I know it's a big ask but I don't know anyone else who can do this job."
"I was going to support her anyways but now that I know ahead of time, I can help her more. Do you think she's gonna lose her motivation since she'll know you have a girlfriend now?"
"That's a tough question, you recently helped her find her resolve so she could become someone more helpful and bold so I don't know how much her development will be hindered when she finds out. Hopefully it's very minimal."
"Yeah, there's only one way to know and that's when she finds out but anyways, if thats all Kiyopon, leave it to me. Also... B-best of luck with your relationship and never make Karuizawa-san sad! I'm not friends with her but she's still a girl..."
"I'll try my best Haruka but thank you again."
"Y-yea no worries, I'll head back now, see you later."
With that, Haruka left the area and I was left to ponder about what I'd do now that someone significant had heard it.. I noticed her presence a while ago, more like I saw her high ponytail peaking through and of course, I was referring to Kei who happened to be eavesdropping on my conversation with Haruka. She probably happened to run into us and decided to listen in being the jealous person that she is when it comes to her boyfriend. She didn't know about Airi liking me so I was most likely about to receive an earful from Kei right about now.
To be continued...
New chapter out either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!
