Reincarnated As A Tutor (Quintessential Quintuplets x Reader)

My Love Is For... [61]

Itsuki and I stared at each other. The message I saw on my phone caught me off guard.

Y/N: I wasn't supposed to see that, was I..?

Itsuki: N-No. I don't know what you're talking about!

I looked back at my phone and the message was deleted from the group chat. It didn't matter, though. I had already seen it.

Y/N: Five rooms, huh?

Itsuki: Y-You weren't supposed to-

Y/N: You guys are making me choose..? What do you guys want me to do?!

What was sent to the group chat was a message outlining the Quints' plan to settle who would get to have me once and for all. They planned to all go to different rooms after the festival ended and force me to go to one of the rooms and decide which one of them I loved the most.

**That isn't fair at all... Especially not after what they all did these last two days! What the hell?!**

Y/N: You guys didn't even ask me first before coming up with something like this?

Itsuki: I'm sorry.

Y/N: Ha, it's funny because I actually wanted to talk to you about it before... I'm not so sure, now.

Itsuki: Y/N-

Y/N: You know all of your sisters kissed me, right?!

She froze.

Itsuki: Huh?!

Y/N: Except maybe I was hallucinating with Yotsuba... I can't think!

Itsuki: Take your time.

Y/N: I don't have time! Not anymore at least-

I stopped myself and calmed down.

Y/N: Sorry, Itsuki... I didn't mean to yell at you. I'm just frustrated is all.

Itsuki: I get it. It wasn't fair for us to plan something like this behind your back.

**Maybe they're right, though... I'll never come to a decision if somebody doesn't force me to.**

Y/N: Just... just tell me what you girls were planning to have me do.

Itsuki: Okay. When the events of today are finished and the festival is ending, each of us would have been waiting in a different classroom... clutching our respective feelings... waiting for you. B-But if it's something that upsets you, I can tell my sisters and we'll call it off-

Y/N: No. I think you guys are right. I need to own my feelings, too. It's not fair to just say that I love all of you.

I looked at her.

Y/N: I'm gonna head back to the festival. Just... Just give me until the end of today to think, okay? I need some space.

Itsuki: O-Okay.

I left the apartment and headed back to the festival. My heart was racing fast, but not because I was in love. It was skipping beats because I was nervous and afraid.

**I should've just told Itsuki to call it off... I don't know what to do. I really love Nino, but I also really love Miku. I really love Yotsuba, but I also really love Ichika. Itsuki's no exception to this little game... How do I make a decision with this mindset?!**

{Later That Night}

I spent the entire festival thinking about what my decision would be. The closer I got to the time, the more cloudy my thoughts became. I sat outside during the festival after-party so that I could think. Ryuji, Takeda, and Maeda were still cleaning up, and they found me sitting by myself before they came over.
