Chapter 2251: Not so gloomy anymore



Upon arriving at Rumi's house, I was greeted by the sight of her eagerly waiting at the door, dressed in a simple yet alluring loungewear that hugged her curves in all the right places. It once again reminded me that her charm wasn't ordinary at all. If she wanted to, she could make a lot of boys fall for her. Alas, she was too focused on her Literature Club and she was also refraining from opening up to other people.

If she hadn't brought me to this house back then when I noticed her gloominess, I'd probably continue thinking that she's just our diligent Club President. Now, all of that has changed.

"You're here. A little late, don't you think so?" Rumi's cheeks flushed slightly when she saw my bag, hinting at how excited she was for our first night together. We exchanged smiles and she took my hand, leading me inside.

Although I already expected it, I was still surprised to see the girls of our club waiting inside. Kana shyly smiled. Rae closed her book, fixed her glasses and waved at me. Hana secretly winked And lastly, the curiosity incarnate, Otsuka-senpai standing up and running to me. Looking at the table in the middle of the living room, they were still discussing our Literature Club's project for the festival. We revised it earlier and now, everyone is working on it.

But the one thing that I was really glad to see was... Rumi finally has someone else other than me over. The gloom of the house had disappeared and in exchange, there was a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

"Alright. Tell me, did you all intentionally wait for me to arrive?" I playfully asked as I looked at all of them before pulling Rumi by her hips closer to me. She pressed her lips together as if she didn't intend to answer me. Instead, she grabbed the bag in my hand and walked away, possibly to bring it upstairs, into her room.

Left behind, I was faced with three of my girls and Otsuka-senpai who... I hadn't seen for a few days.

"Onoda-kun, uhm, R-ruki... So, it's true. You're going to stay the night with the President." Otsuka-senpai, despite her stiffness with calling me by name like I told her before, meaningfully grinned with her purple eyes sparkling with both curiosity and mischief. Even without saying it, it's pretty clear what she was trying to say.

"Well, it's not like it's something new, right, Karen? Next time, I'd be sleeping over at Kana or Hana's house. Will you also invite me to yours?" I shamelessly answered before adding that tease.

Otsuka-senpai's cheeks reddened as she quivered, trying to come up with a suitable response. Kana and Hana giggled at her reaction while Rae simply raised an eyebrow at my boldness. It was clear that the dynamics in our Literature Club had already shifted to this comfortable atmosphere. We were still a tight-knit group, but now, with all of them being involved with me romantically - even if it's only an act with Otsuka-senpai - it added a new dimension to our interactions.

Since Rumi had yet to return, I grabbed the curious girl's wrist and brought her back to the couch, joining up the other three.

Without delay, I kissed them one by one with the last being Otsuka-senpai herself. She blinked a few times as though wondering if I would do it. But then, I whispered, "What do you think, Karen? Are we going to continue practicing or not?"

The practice that we started back at the camp so that we could fool her friends that we would be meeting for a group date had ended with us kissing quite intimately.

"Y-Yes," Karen tried her hardest to get the approval of the other before stutteringly as she closed her eyes, waiting for my lips to drop.

"This guy... He's really not going to spare anyone." I heard Hana mumbling in her seat.

"That's Ruki for you..." And then Kana added.

"In my observation, this was bound to happen. It was too late for Otsuka-senpai to get away from Ruki." Rae analytically commented, not even bothering to hide her amusement at Karen's flustered state.

I inwardly shook my head but there's really nothing to retort about it. What they said was more or less true.

And with that, I also bestowed my lips to Otsuka-senpai, albeit a swift one as opposed to my intimate exchange with my girls.

When she noticed that it ended with a peck, she blinked at me, her eyes filled with slight confusion. "Is that all?" she whispered.

"Mhm... It's only practice, Karen. Or do you want more?" I teasingly said. At this point, it didn't really matter anymore if it was a quick kiss or not. I just thought teasing her would be fun. Plus, I knew she had to experience more of this with me, otherwise, we could forget convincing her friends about our relationship.

But then again, if it all became real, would they even need convincing? Probably not.

After giving her another peck, I sat her back on the couch before I let myself be squeezed between Rae and Kana who immediately updated me about what they finished while I was away.

"I see. So, all of you added another scene in the middle part." I said as I read through what they finished.

At this point, Rumi had already returned from upstairs and joined the others to fill me in. "Ruki, we figured out we can ask the others as actors. Rae asked them through the group chat and they agreed." Rumi then pointed at the new roles that needed to be filled in. They even have candidates for it already.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Mhm. Our Cultural Festival Booth was already shaping up even before the start of

preparations.

"I got it. I'll read through this again later. For now... have you eaten yet?" As I said that, my eyes wandered to all of them, getting the answer from their faces. "Not yet, huh?"

They all nodded in unison. Rumi had probably asked them to wait for me. It was sweet, but it also meant that she had to wait for me, too.

"Alright, then wait for a moment. I'll be the one cooking." I stood up and started making my way to the kitchen.

But before I could even take a step, Rumi already sidled up next to me before saying, "I can't let you do that, Ruki. I waited so we could cook together."

With an impish smile, she glanced back, winking at the other three...

I got it. They talked about this already and sure enough, they all agreed.

"It's making me wonder when all of you will scheme at me in the future." I playfully said as Rumi hooked her arm on mine.

"You're overthinking, Ruki. We know the way you think. You're so considerate you will serve us right away as soon as you hear we haven't eaten yet. I already prepared the ingredients, by

the way."

And with that, as soon as we stepped into the kitchen, Rumi's words proved true. The countertop was laid out with a variety of fresh ingredients, the scent of them wafting through the air, making my stomach rumble. She had meticulously picked out a recipe that she knew that we could cook together.

Not knowing what to say, I could only turn to her, pinch her cheeks, and then give her another

kiss.

"You're the best, Rumi" I whispered into her ear before letting her go.

She blushed as she licked her lips before responding, "It's you who's the best, Ruki."
