COTE x Quintuplets

The Trial

After the incident everyone gathered at the living room. It looked like I was in court and waiting to see if I was guilty or not.

Itsuki: Your Honor...Please Look At This

Itsuki proceeded to take her phone out that had the picture of me on top of Nino to Ichika.

Itsuki: The Defendant, Who Is Currently A Home Tutor, Tried To Sexually Assault The Female High School Student In Front Of Him.
The Person In This Picture Is The Defendant Ayanokouji.

They all looked at me and I kinda just sat there. I already tried to tell them it was a misunderstanding but they still wanted to do this trial.

Nino: Your Honor. This Person Intentionally Left The Flat In Plain Sight, Then Waited Until I Came Out The Bathroom. Considering This Purposeful Crime, I Suggest We Ban Him From The Building.

Ichika: That Might Be A Possibility.

At this rate I'm going to be considered guilty. Since I'm here I might as well play along with their skit.

Ayanokouji: Your Honor! I Returned Because I Left My Phone.

Ichika : That Also Might Be A Possibility

Miku: I Object.

Miku: I Opened The Door For Him Through The Intercom. There Should be A Recording Of That Conversation. This Is An Accident.

It actually makes me quite happy that Miku is helping me in my darkest times.

Nino: You're Still Protecting Him...?

Nino: Your Honor! I Think Miku Currently Influenced By Her Affection For The Defendant.

Miku: N-No...I'm Not...

That seemed to affect Miku a lot because she started to Blush, I should probably leave her alone for a while.

After that Miku and Nino argued back and forth that even the other sisters were shocked.

Itsuki: Guys, This Is Not The Time For Fighting...

Miku: Be Quiet, Itsuki!

Nino: And Delete The Photo Immediately.

Itsuki started to run away crying from getting yelled at.

Itsuki: Your Honor...

Ichika: There, There...It's Okay...

Ichika: AHEM. Even If What Miku Said Was True, The Result Will Be The Same.

Nino: I Know You Will Understand Ichika. This Guy Suddenly Jumped At Me.

Miku: Is That True?

Ayanokouji: Well Yes and No.

Miku: So, It's true. Then You Should Commit Seppuku.

Ayanokouji: Really!?

Well this turned for the worst, I went from having at least one supporter to zero. I think now is to best time to explain why I jumped onto Nino.

Ichika: Then We Can All Agree That The Tutor Is Guil-

Ayanokouji: Wait!

Ayanokouji: I Was Going To Wait Until One Of You Actaully Looked At The Picture But Whatever.

Ayanokouji: If You Look At The Photo Closely You Could See Books On The Ground. That Indicates That I Was Actually Protecting Nino From The Falling Books. That Explains Why I Was On Top Of Nino Because I Didn't Want Her To Get Hurt.

Itsuki: H-Huh? It Does Look That Way

Miku: I Guess It's True

Ichika: Well Kiyotaka Isn't That Kind Of Person.

Nino: Hey Wait! So That's Its? You Can't Brush Things Off Like That.

Miku: Grow Up, Nino.

Nino: Shut Up Miku!

Ichika: Hey Don't Fight Like That. We Used To Be Close, Remember?

Nino: Used To Be, Huh...

Nino started to run off, She just dashed through to the doors to entrance of the House.

Ayanokouji: I'm Glad Everything Ended Alright, But Is Nino Going To Be Alright?

Miku: Just Leave Her Be...

That was kinda cold, I know she tried to ruin my reputation but it wouldn't be good if Nino got upset.

I decided to leave since I had no other reason for being there. Nino Shouldn't be far because she has nowhere to go. As I Leave through the main entrance I see Nino by the wall on the floor. She got up and tried to go back inside but the doors quickly shut her outside.

Nino: Hmph...You're So Useless.

Ayanokouji: Sorry. Want Me To Call The Others To Let You In?

Nino: N-No. Just Go Away, I'm Sick Of Seeing Your Face.

I started to walk away but then I turned around to see her still sitting there on the floor. She was completely alone, I would feel bad if I let her alone like that, besides I want to have a little chat with her. I started to approach her and sat right next to Nino.

Nino: Wh-What Are You Doing?

Ayanokouji: I Just Thought We Could Talk For A Bit Just You And Me.

Nino: Why Would I Want To Talk To You?

Ayanokouji: Well Your Talking To Me Anyways, So Let Me Ask You This. Why Did You Run Away?

Nino: Huh? Because I Cant Stand Any Of You, You're All Just Idiots, That's Why I Hate All Of You.

Ayanokouji: Your Lying. We Both Know That's Impossible.

Nino: W-What Is?

Ayanokouji: You Hating Your Sisters.

Ayanokouji: You Actually Care For Your Sisters The Most, Which Is Why Your So Against Me Being In Your House.

Nino: S-Shut Up! I'm Not Lying! And What Makes You Think You Know So Much About Me?

She got up in a hurry and I followed her. I quickly pinned her against the wall and forced her to face towards me.

Nino: Huh?

Ayanokouji: Because I Know Your Greatest Fear.

Ayanokouji: Your Greatest Fear Is Growing Up.

Nino Turned Bright Red From My Actions, she probably thought I was actually going to sexually assault her.

Ayanokouji: When Ichika Said You Guys Used To Be Close, You Had A Sad Facial Expression. Since You Girls Are Quintuplets You All Looked The Same, Well You Still Do But It's Different Now Right? You Used To Act The Same But Now Each Of You Has A Different Characteristics That Represents You.

Ayanokouji: They All Changed And That's What You Hate The Most, Change. Your Still Living In The Past And I'm Afraid To Tell You, But You Can't Do That Forever, Your Eventually Going To Have To Change Yourself.

Ayanokouji: My Advice For You Is To Not Resist The Current. Go With The Current And Let It Carry You, Life Will Be Easier If You Listen. You Will Thank Me Later, Nino.

And with that I let go of her, she was still so stunned that she couldn't move. She was unable to respond back because she knew I was right.

Looks like my time is up. I could see Miku coming towards the main entrance, it would be bad is she saw me with Nino like this.

Ayanokouji: Don't Forget What I Told You Today.

I proceeded to excuse my self, leaving her and her confused expression.

Miku: Nino. How Long Do You Plan On Staying Out Here By Yourself? Come In Quick.

Nino: ...

Miku: Nino!

Nino: H-Huh? Oh. Y-Yea, I'm sorry.

I Guess You Call Today A Success. The Door To Nino's Heart Is Being Opened Little By Little.

[A/N] - This Was A Pretty Short Chapter But I Enjoyed It So I Hope You Guys Did As Well.
