Game Gyaru

Chapter 81: The Other Guys

As Hakuta laid on the hard rough surfaces of the rocks by the ocean. He pondered on what it was his friends were doing at this moment. They had sent him here just for the sake to not get in their way, supposedly, when it came to making any moves. He wasn't against them doing that despite all his constant whining about how they acted. The boy simply wished they'd just do it rather than worry about his impact on things.

"If you promise me you won't leave right now." Ninka spoke up as they continued being in the resting positions they were in. "I promise no more fooling around with you. We can just chill and chat about whatever." It was a suggestion he didn't expect would come from this girl of all people. Especially after everything she had just put him through. But this was definitely a welcome change for him.

"Beach and chill? Now that's something I can get behind." He got himself comfortable in his laying spot. Well, at least as comfortable as one could get on a sharp rocky terrain. "...Maybe we should move somewhere else first."

Elsewhere, Yuusen and Itsuki were ready to make this day one of the greatest of their lives. Without Hakuta around to get in the way, which was ironic since they were always asking him to join them whenever they were with the girls. The pair felt confident they could really show themselves off in a different light to the girls. Perhaps that might impress them and see they could be more than just friends.

"I hope you don't mind if I try and talk with Rouko first." Said Itsuki. There was one matter they still needed to work on and wished they could've planned this out ahead of time. "Now that I think about it. I don't think you've really talked with Iruka that much at all."

"That's because she's closer to Hakuta." He replied. "Personally, even though she doesn't say it. I think she's interested in him." Yuusen sighed over the matter as they looked at the trio of girls by the beach. If what he said was true, that would be two girls Hakuta basically took from him. Even though none of them were dating anyone and his friend spoke often on his desire to not be involved with the gyarus. "Man, it's no fair. When did he become a chick magnet?"

"I think we're just overthinking things there bud." Itsuki gave him a pat on the back for assurance. "She's just the new girl who wants to get all friendly with someone she sits next to. But that's just friend zone material, it's time you show her what boyfriend material is."

"You're right." He stood up after being given a bit of a pep talk. "Hakuta's just that nice guy girls hang with, but won't consider dating." He said, despite knowing full well that Ninka wanted to date that boy in particular. "I mean, I'm good looking and I'm near the top of the class... Oh why do they always ask for his help instead then."

It was true that he was much smarter than Hakuta. So being aware of this fact and still losing in the tutoring battle was painful. Still, this didn't mean he was going to give up against his rivalry that didn't even exist in his friend's mind. "Now let's go!"

The pair got themselves hyped up, this would be the time that Hakuta told them to take their chance and make a move. So they walked along the hot sand on the beach towards the three girls to say something, even though there was no need for any dramatics as they all already came here together as a group.

"Finally you guys decided to stop sitting around staring and do something." Rouko greeted them not so warmly. "We were starting to wonder if you actually thought being at the beach was lame or something."

"Anyway, I'm glad you finally joined us." Said Iruka, who was much more bright about the matter. She was also already enjoying most of what the beach had offer as the girl waded into the waters. "It's great out here, you should join me." She gave them the offer and Yuusen immediately went and snatched the opportunity.
