The night was already set as we walked the street of this shopping district towards our next destination. The street became more crowded than earlier due to the new influx of customers in the form of salarymen who had just gotten off their work. Some are walking to find a bar to drink or are just passing by to buy something from one of the shops around.

Before continuing with our dinner, Shizu and I stopped at an apparel shop. Since I dont really bother about spending Ichihara Juns money to treat ourselves, I feel like getting a change of clothes for both of us.

Thankfully, theyre still open so Shizu and I went to take a pick. The clothes arent branded but theyre good enough for everyday use. With the help of the store assistants, the two of us changed into a rather stylish outfit that was, according to them, trending for college students.

And it turned out amazing for Shizu. In contrast to her uniform, the ones she picked by the end made her look more like a traditional Japanese beauty coming out of the painting.

Despite wearing a plain set of clothes consisting of a shirt topped with a comfortable jacket and long skirt, her image and figure alone were enough to make her look like a model.

As for mine... well, I was bad at picking before but thanks to Juris aesthetic, I probably started to get a hang of pairing the top and bottom.

And since were going to change out of our uniform, I got Shizu a pair of sandals to match her skirt while I got myself a pair of sneakers.

Shizu was reluctant to buy it all at first but when I told her where I got the money, a sinister smile flashed on her lips as though saying, Oh, its from the thugs he hired to beat you up? Alright, Ill help you dispose of his dirty money.

Normally, one would be averse to knowing that its dirty but for Shizu and me, it didnt matter at all. And were even eager to spend more just to spite that pompous clown. Who told him to pay them that much? No one. Then well happily take us for ourselves.

After putting our uniform inside another bag, we soon left the apparel shop.

Seeing how we got our hands full with additional bags apart from her school bag, my duffel bag, and the paper bags from the bookstore, we decided to use a coin locker to store them before getting our dinner.

As we have money to splurge, Shizu got this mischievous idea.

Numbskull, lets not go to a western restaurant. Lets get you grilled eels. Eat a lot.

Understanding the connotation behind it, I pinched her cheek. Still, I agreed with the idea.

Grilled eels are known for boosting ones stamina, after all. Theyre pretty expensive, especially if its not summer yet. But with Ichihara Juns money, we wouldnt need to worry about its price. Hence Shizu thought it was a brilliant idea. But well, isnt she being naughty? This girl truly didnt want this day to end early.

Although it already took me that long to cum with Orimura-sensei earlier, I was still confident in my stamina. But then again, if I wanted to accomplish what I declared earlier of not letting her sleep tonight, another stamina boost would be great.

Alright. Lets go. You should also eat some. Youll be exhausted, you know? What if you lose consciousness on our third round?

... Third round??? Numbskull, youre thinking too far ahead.

She stared at me with an incredulous expression but little by little as though she was imagining it playing in her head, her blush returned to her face.

This girl... despite her straightforwardness to do it with me, shes still going to be this shy at the thought. But thats fine, shes also adorable this way.

Why not? You dont believe me? Ive held back for too long. And since its with my lovely Shizu... I dont think I can be satisfied with just once.

I replied in a whisper.

Anyway, that was partly a joke on my part. I still want to consider her state after our first time. If I did it too roughly on her, she might not be able to get up tomorrow. Itll be bad that she might miss the camp.

Okay... Lets eat eels together. I wont let you look down on me, numbskull.

Im not looking down on you though.

Psh. Youre being so raunchy today. You always find it fun to tease your girls.

Heh. Sorry, your reactions are just priceless, Shizu. Since I cant get it every day, Ill take as much as I can while I have the chance.

Oh? Is that so? Then come here, let me put you in your place first, big pervert.

With the girl acting like this, I couldnt help but reminisce about our shared moments ever since I broke into the barrier she holed herself in. Who wouldve thought that she could display these kinds of faces, right? No one. Not even Nami.

But now, shes being so open that no one could point out that shes the same Student Council President.

As we kept bantering like that, slowly but surely, we also returned to our previous setup. Shizu hugged my arm, pressing it deep in her valley, and had our fingers entwined as we continued to walk this busy street.

Soon enough, the Japanese Restaurant that was serving grilled eels even if they were off-season entered our vision. We looked at each other and while I grinned, Shizus smile came out naturally.

With a nod, we then stomped our feet and continued on our way.

However, it looked like our night wouldnt be that pleasant, after all.

Someone ran into us.

Who?

The Vice President of the Student Council, Inugaki. And hes not alone.

President andyou. With his glasses seemingly falling out of his face, the barking dog stopped in his steps as he saw us approaching the restaurant.

The guy was about to exit and behind him, two more guys appeared most likely his friends. They were wondering why he stopped but even though I dont know them, they surely recognized us as soon as their eyes found us in front of Inugaki.

Shizu on my side tightened her hold on my hand but shes a little disturbed to be seen by them. However, that only lasts for a moment.

Wearing the same expression as she usually does with her mask, she eyed the three and raised her eyebrows.

What? Did you three see a ghost? Stop blocking the door. Youre not the only customer.

As she spat those words with her usual authoritative tone, the two behind Inugaki trembled from the chills brought about by her countenance.

Unfortunately, it wasnt that effective against the dog. He already built some tolerance for it.

W-what? Before that, President. Why are you here with him?

Why? Do I have to report my social life to you, Vice President? Youre aware of my relationship with him. Dont act so surprised.

N-no... But.

Senpais, good evening. Can you please move and let us into the restaurant? Weve just finished watching a movie and were hungry.

Ignoring the dogs stuttering, I addressed the two behind him. Since theyre seniors and they had to truly see what Im capable of apart from hearing the rumors, theyre probably at the stage of viewing me as though my reputation precedes me. They wouldnt give me the same respect or show fear as they did for Shizu. In their eyes, I was still this freshman who suddenly got promoted to be the Disciplinary Officer out of nowhere.

And thats why, their initial reaction when I addressed them was to compose themselves and act like a superior.

Junior, its not that were blocking you. Inugaki is blocking us. said one of them.

He looked like another asshole who would definitely lick someones paw as long as they gave him a treat. Still, theyre probably not Ichihara Juns lackeys like this dog.

I can see that but you can move him out of the way. Its a lovely night, lets not ruin it just because of something petty like...

I didnt finish my sentence there but I made sure to make a gesture of turning my gaze to Inugaki before looking at Shizu and pulling her closer to me.

Shizu was also ready to berate them but perhaps wanting to see me in action, she also closed her mouth and allowed me to take the floor.

I heard her little whisper though. She said, Numbskull, is this the part where I have to act like a damsel in distress? No. Its tasteless. Just tell them about our relationship and make their jaw drop. Were past being secretive, right?
