Reincarnation. According to Oxford Dictionary, it is the transmigration of the soul. Alternatively it is also known as "Metempsychosis", the supposed transmigration at death of the soul of a human being or animal into a new body of the same or a different species.
Now you must be wondering why I'm talking about "reincarnation" of all things, right? Simple.
I, Izayoi Hyoudou, am a victim of "Reincarnation". Or in Weeb terms, I have been "Isekai'd". You already know where I'm going with this don't you? I mean, you did read the story summary above, and reading the tags I'm sure it's obvious to you that the world I've been reincarnated to is High School DxD. And the surname should give it away that I'm related to the main protagonist of the story; that being, I'm the younger brother of Issei Hyoudou by two years.
To many of you, it will seem like a joyous experience being so close to the Harem King that you admire, and to some of you it will be hell. Then there's the extra bunch that decides to cuck him- I hate guys like that- and/or bash him around like some sandbag or reduce him to an extra/background character. For me, it is hell. I mean, I'm cool with reincarnation, but I'm definitely not okay with being involved with the main cast, let alone cool!
To me, this is nothing but punishment, and sadly for me, I'm not Darkness who's going to enjoy being in my place.
That being said, I'm not exactly going to go on a full lengthy explanation on what I've been doing since rebirth. I'll just explain the last 15 years of my life as "Preparation" as one of the moments that I've been expecting just happened.
Issei, my perverted fool of an older brother is bragging to me about his new girlfriend "Yumma Amano" or as I know her- Raynare.
"Hah! In your pretty little face Izayoi!" I dryly stared at my brother who was jumping in joy. "And you know what's better?" He stood straight with his chest puffed out and pointed a thumb at himself. "She asked me out! Someone finally recognized how great I am!"
'More like how much of a fool you are.' I thought to myself. I sighed and boredly looked at him. "Really now?" I drawled.
"Yeah!"
I cringed at his loudness. "And how can you be so sure that the girl genuinely likes you?" He paused mid-jump and crashed. Ignoring what happened, I continue. "Even if she, let's say, called you "cute" and "attractive" what makes you so sure that the girl didn't do it because she lost a bet, or is simply doing a dare?" I really enjoyed how his and dad's cheerfulness dropped. I'm a sadist, and I enjoy hurting others verbally.
"Let's face it." I looked at him seriously hiding all the glee I felt at seeing how reality started sinking into him. "You are a well-known pervert. In fact, you are the only one regarded as "Women's Enemy" out of the Perverted Trio. So tell me…" I crouched and got close to him. "…what makes you think she genuinely asked you out?" I grasped his chin. "What makes you think she isn't luring you into a trap where at the end of your date…she'll kill you?" His face lost all its color and I let his jaw hit the floor, horror reflecting in his eyes as he lied on the floor motionless in shock. "Think about it. If she were to kill you, the supposed "Women's Enemy", society would see her as a hero. And after you, your so called "friends" will be next. She would be doing a community service by getting rid of you and your friends."
"NO!" He yelled jumping off of the floor. "I refuse to believe what you said!" As I expected, he got into denial. "You're lying! Yuuma-chan wouldn't do something like that! She's too pure and sweet for that! She's also got amazing oppai! You're just jealous that I got a girl-"
"Did she even give you her phone number?" I interrupted him mid-rant and again, as I expected, he paused and shakily pulled out his phone looking through his contacts. Sitting down on the couch, I hid a grin as his soul seemed to come out of his body.
"S-She didn't…"
"She didn't what?" I demanded hiding my glee.
"She didn't give me her phone number…" Issei slumped barely holding on to his bag and phone.
"See?" I asked our parents who quietly watched the entire spectacle. "If you listened to me and had been a bit strict on him and forced him to properly study, then he would've recognized the flags." The atmosphere of the house became heavy and somber, all the cheerfulness gone. When he first stepped into degeneracy, I had warned mom and dad that something like this will happen. They didn't listen and let him do whatever he wanted. I myself warned Issei but he didn't listen either. And now, Issei barely has enough brain cells to function as a basic human.
Having enough of suppressing my laughter I dramatically stood up shaking my head with a sigh and headed towards my room. "I've lost my appetite because of his sheer idiocy. I'll skip out on dinner."
Once I closed the door to my room, I placed a soundproof barrier and laughed.
As per my routine, I woke up at 5:30 AM and started meditating. I expanded my senses across the entire Kuoh Town and checked up on everyone's Ki to find out about any kind of anomalies. Having done that, I went to the front yard with a pair of bokken and started going through my Kendo and Iaido katas, and after that I did the Karate katas. With my morning training done, I freshened up and donned the school uniform except I wore the waistcoat instead of the blazer. Eating something light for breakfast by 7 AM I left home with my bento in hand and headed towards school for the early morning sessions of the Kyudo Club.
When I signed up for the Kyudo Club, I was half expecting a not-so-warm welcome because of my gender. But I had forgotten something. I was famous in Kuoh Academy on par with the likes of Rias, Akeno and Sona, not only because of my status as a Scholarship student, but because of my reputation as the National Kendo, Kyudo and Karate Champion. But even those weren't the reason I was warmly welcomed into the Kyudo Club.
No. The reason was something completely idiotic and hormonal. I, Izayoi Hyoudou, am a Prince in Kuoh Academy. Because of my 4'10" height and fragile looking body, along with my slight feminine appearance I earned the title of "The Effeminate Prince". It doesn't help that my skin tone is milky white, and my once brown hair now snow-white matched well with my gold eyes. For this many had assumed I was Momo Hanakai's younger brother, which was until they learnt of my surname.
I maybe a male, but I also look female from certain angles and areas. Because of this Aika Kiryuu labeled me as "Reverse Trap" much to my irritation. I'm not a girl dressing up as a boy dammit!
At first the girls were worried if I should be physically exerting myself because of my fragile appearance, but then I reminded them that I'm a National Champion in not only Kendo and Kyudo but Karate as well, so they caved in. Oh how I wanted to tell them that I could snap all of them like twigs with a squeeze of my finger but held back. Don't need the wrong ears to hear them.
But once word got out that I joined the Kyudo Club, all hell broke loose. Girls from every class and clubs accused the Kyudo Club members of "seducing" me- 'Hah! As if anyone who's not Sera can seduce me!'- and soon a fight broke out that the Student Council Members had to stop while I silently laughed from the sidelines.
Once that silly quarrel was settled down and club properly started, I smoothly integrated myself into it and in two weeks, I became the top archer of the club. And like all times I was given the offer to be the Club Captain, and I accepted it. I mean why shouldn't I? My word becomes law and I have all the power in the club. I will also be representing our school in the Interschool Tournaments where I get to crush more competition. All in all, I get to satisfy my sadism streaks, but best of all I get to teach the newbies and those that need corrections.
I plan to be a teacher in the future, so the earlier I get the teaching experience, the better. And no, it's not because I get to touch the soft bodies of the girls in the club, though, they do blush, stammer and moan inappropriately when I touch them to correct their stances!
The club practice session in the morning goes on from 7:15 AM to 8:15 AM. Since classes start at 8:30 AM, it's not mandatory for everyone to come or stay the full time. Only I and a rare few attend the sessions. Sometimes those that are out of form attend, but most don't.
Once I was done with my practice, I showered in the club's shower room for the males and headed for class. As I did so, I expanded my senses to get a read on Issei's mood and as I expected, he was giddy while the other two creatures named Matsuda and Motohama were reeking of jealousy. I guess he got her number today and is waiting to shove it in my face. Here's to hoping he didn't bring up the points I made last night to her.
Classes went by as normal as it can be with me being the only male in my class 1-A. Unfortunately for me, Koneko is my classmate and I have a feeling she can tell that I'm not a human as she'd stare at me from my left and would look away if I were to so as much turn in her direction.
Much to my amused irritation, this scenario reminded me of the first episode of "Absolute Duo", except our homeroom teacher didn't wear a bunny suit. I had half a mind to suggest her about the bunny suit, but held back as it would label me as a pervert and I loathe those creatures. Everyone was surprised when on the first day I made it clear that I loathed perverts considering who my brother is.
They had asked if I hated Issei. "I don't hate him, but I don't like him either even if he's my brother. Kill him if you want to." That was my answer to them. Soon the rumor mill started spinning and within the first week of school, I was known as "The Effeminate Prince" and "The Prince who hates Perverts". Truly teenagers are an amusing bunch.
Even though I act coldly towards Issei, that fool still acts like I don't mean it. I didn't bother correcting him because I know how words- and some times the truth- can harm someone and send them in the wrong direction in life. I may be a devil now, but that doesn't mean I'm going to push my brother towards the dark path. Issei may be a pervert but there are good qualities in him.
Issei is honorable and has the potential to be a gentleman. He is pure hearted and lets his heart do the thinking for him, unlike me who doesn't even use his. He is honest with himself and doesn't hide who he truly is. I on the other hand am hedonistic, morally gray, cold hearted, sadistic and cruel. I am willing to do questionable things to achieve my goals, play dirty and manipulate people for my advantage or sometimes amusement. I hide who I am under the mask of an innocent 15 year old boy as people expect me to be with the appearance of a Shota.
I am a dishonorable person. I don't give a damn about my pride. I'm paranoid and hardly trust anyone but my parents and Sera. Even then my parents don't know about the things I do, only Sera does as we perfectly understand and complete each other. I don't hate myself but I don't like myself either. I'm not proud of who I am but I am content.
Therefore, I, Izayoi Hyoudou am a despicable former human, current devil.
"Heeeeeey~! Izayoooi~! Hold uuuuuup!" I sighed and slowed down my gait to match Issei's as he ran up to me.
"What do you want Baka-nii?" I grunted out as I lead him to my lunch spot under the shadow of a large tree beside the Old School Building. I've started calling him "Baka-nii" since he started walking the path of a degenerate since, you know? Degenerate? Like F/GO Black Beard or Edward Teach as many know of him as.
"Hehe! Guess what?"
Opening my foot tall bento divided into three compartments I deadpanned, "Your "girlfriend" dumped you?" I need to eat a lot. Turns out, having large reserves of Demonic Power and immense physical parameters make you hungry. That'd explain why all the Artorias eat a lot what with their Dragon Core and what not.
"What?! NO!" Issei shook his head opening his own smaller bento box. "She gave me her phone number!" He thrusted his phone at my face and I dully glanced at the "Yuuma-chan" named contact with a number. "I asked her this morning if she was pulling a prank on me or doing a dare. She vehemently denied it!" He smugly grinned at me. "In fact she herself came to our house to walk me here to school. So there's no way she's deceiving me!" He looked so proud of himself that I couldn't help but pity him. He's gonna get killed and he doesn't even know it.
"Aren't you ashamed?" Ignoring the inevitable, I decided to poke fun at him as I finished the food on the first compartment of the bento. I'm a mix of normal Artoria and her Alter counterpart as I eat both healthy and junk food. "You, a man, need to be walked to school by a woman? No wait, calling you a man would be insulting us real men."
"Hey! Her school is far away from here and since mine is closer, she decided to walk me here." I blankly stared at him as I drank the chicken soup from the vacuum flask. "And you are no man." He said pointing at me. I was tempted to snap that finger but he retracted it noticing my stare. "You're just a Shota! Not even 5 feet in height!" He smirked saying that trying to get under my skin.
Calmly packing up my bento box I sneered at him. "At least girls adore me!" Seeing him turn red in anger I picked up my bento box and ran. "Giiiiirls! Baka-nii is trying to hurt me!" I screamed out loud making Issei pale in fear. I gave him a victory sign and ran away towards the class just in time for my fan girls along with the Kendo and Karate Club to jump him with a furious shout.
"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH HIM WITH YOUR SCUMMY HANDS YOU BASTARD!"
Issei's screams and yells of pain echoed across the entire Kuoh Academy grounds.
The Kyudo Club had approximately 27 members. Twelve first years including me being the current captain. Ten second years and five third years. Most of the third year students had to quit the club in favor of preparing for their college entrance exams, so our total number fell from 39 to 27.
Currently I am preparing for the Interschool Tournament that's going to happen next month, sometime after the Riser Arc if I'm right.
There are days when girls not in the club gather here to wait for their friends to walk home together. And by that, I mean them ogling me as I take my shots. Neither the anime nor light novel expanded much on the school grounds. The Kyudo Club has one of the larger buildings because of what their sports basically revolve around. Range. The targets are placed haphazardly at different distances. The closest one is at 5 meters while the furthest is at 30 meters.
Practicing here doesn't help me much but I want to keep my motions sharp as I tend to shoot at all the targets one after the other, sometimes even stabbing through someone else's arrow- that is- if they hit the Bulls-Eye. It's only on weekends when I go to the Underworld in the territory of my King under her supervision that I get to fully train with no limits placed on me and try out new spells and techniques.
Hitting another Bulls-Eye I paused and slowly turned around as my senses registered a familiar presence close to the entrance. Everyone paused and followed my gaze just in time for the Student Council President to come into view.
Smiling at the girl I raised a hand and waved. "Heya Prez! What brings you here?"
Sona Sitri returned my smile and spoke. "Just here to observe. Had some free time and decided to check up on you. Especially since you're participating in the Interschool Tournament."
Cupping my right cheek I cooed. "Aww~! Are you here to cheer for the little ol' me Prez? I don't see the pom-poms though~."
"Don't get ahead of yourself. Just be glad that I'm here."
"Sure am~!" I sing-songed as I and a few others headed to the target boards to collect the arrows. "Anyway Prez, thank you very much for dropping by! It lifted my spirits by lots~!"
"You're welcome." Sona replied adjusting her glasses as she sat down on the chair a member brought for her softly thanking her.
With her settled down, I got down to shooting more arrows. While shooting the arrows I decided to get a feel of her emotions. To my surprise, she was nervous. Externally she was hiding perfectly under her usual stern mask and sharp observing eyes, but internally she was nervous about something. Did her sister do something embarrassing to her again?
"Something on your mind Prez?" I asked putting down my bow and picking up a towel to dry off the little amount of sweat that my body produced. My body having being used to life threatening situations and the intense training that I've been doing since I was a kid hardly produces sweat from this kind of activities, neither do I feel the rush nor adrenaline of being chased down by wild monsters, Trolls, Orcs etc. or chasing them. "You look like something's bothering you."
Just as she was going to say "no", I gave her my puppy dog eyes. "You're not going to tell me?" My lips quivered and I could see the panic rising in her.
"I, uhh…um…" she was struggling to compose herself, not that the glares on her back helped. "…can we talk in your office?"
I flashed her a wide grin and cheered. "Okay! Let's go!" She yelped as I grabbed her hand and dragged her to my office and placed her on the seat opposite to my one. "Want something to drink? Snacks?"
Sona shook her head. "No, thanks."
I shrugged and sat down on my chair. "So what troubles you Sona?" In private I call her by her true name as she is the only one that knows that I'm a devil and with who my King is, we got to know each other for more than six months by now. As for my King? I should've dropped enough hints by now. Yes, it's Serafall Leviathan who my King is and I am her pretty little Queen. Don't ask how it happened. Flashback Arcs will come later.
"Well…" she started fidgeting in her seat. I didn't have to use my Ki to know that it's something embarrassing, so I placed a soundproofing barrier just in case someone's eavesdropping. She coughed in her hand and looked at me seriously, well as serious as she can be with the pink dusting on her cheeks that she couldn't push down. "WillyougooutwithmeonadatethisSunday?"
Silence descended in the room as I tried to process what she stammered out while she resolutely stared at me waiting for my answer not even backing down for a second. I'm not deaf. Even if she said what she did at hypersonic speeds I still understood what she said. And as my brain registered this- to my absolute shame- my face turned red letting out steam while my heart started beating at 4th Cosmic Velocity.
For several seconds I dumbly stared at her imitating a gold fish. 'Get a hold of yourself me!' I shook my head and removed the ribbon that tied up my hair in a ponytail letting my mid-back length snow-white hair fall over my back and shoulder. I took a deep breath and shakily ran a hand through my hair, a nervous tic I had even in my previous life.
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you just ask me out on a date or am I imagining things since I've already told you about the type of girls I prefer?"
Sona took a shuddering breath and nodded. "Yes. Yes, I did. I really like you Izayoi-kun and would like to become… closer to you by taking what we have to the next level."
I pinched my arm really hard and feeling the sting despite my absurdly high pain tolerance I knew that I wasn't dreaming. I've already had a crush on her in my previous life, and now, with her- my waifu- right here asking me out is making it hard to control myself.
And just as I opened my mouth to answer… I stopped as a familiar magic circle appeared in the room with Serafall Leviathan shooting out of it.
"Lucifer's rotting corpse!" I shouted in surprise falling off of my chair while Sona let out a scream as Sera glomped her.
"Kyaa!"
"Yay~! So-tan finally did it~! Way to go~!"
I placed a hand over my heart to calm it down observing a squirming embarrassed Sona being hugged by Sera. Standing up I looked across the room everywhere realizing how exactly Sera found out.
"How…? How many monitoring spells did you put here?!" I asked with wide eyes.
"Hehe~! So-tan finally asked Iza-tan out~!"
I could feel a vein popping up on my temple. "Oi! Don't ignore me woman! Omph!" And before I could say anything more, Serafall glomped me faster than I could react. She knows that normal speeds won't work on me and with her being there in every single training session in the Underworld she knows every single tricks I know and how to go around them. After all, she was there when I created them.
"You will say "Yes" right? Right? Right?!" Sera maniacally stared into my eyes. The hell's with her all of a sudden?
"Hold on a moment Sera!" I looked at Sona and asked, "You do know what Sera does with me right?" She nodded and I frowned. "And you're still asking me out despite knowing that?" She blushed and nodded.
"I-I want to join in too but…" she fidgeted in her seat and gave me a wobbly smile. "…I want to take it a bit slow. Get to know you better first…you don't have any problem with that right?" Sera and I…our relationship can't exactly be given a label, because well…there's lots of groping and nudity involved whenever we spend our weekends together after training. Sona one day walked in on us doing it and well…she outright fainted on spot with blood dripping out of her nose.
Sera and I never talked about our relationship as we didn't do anything more than kissing. She's my Master and I'm her Servant. She is a Maou and I'm just a Low-Class Devil. Both of us are on opposite ends of the world and I can't reach out to her, not until I stand beside her, not behind. We take baths together sure and there are times when she's a bit too stressed and I…relieve her of said stress… with her returning the favor most of the times as I am quite shy when it comes to… sexual activities.
"Well…no." I shook my head and replied gently. "I don't have any problem with it."
"So is it...?"
"Iza-tan, stop bullying So-tan!" Our moment immediately came crashing down as Sera once again said something ridiculous and how am I bullying her? "Just answer her already!"
"I was going to say "Yes" until someone decided to ruin the moment!" I deadpanned reflexively and she grinned widely lighting up like a sun hurting my eyes. "Gah!" Is this how others feel when I use my "Shota Charms"?
"Yay~!" Serafall jumped up and down with her arms up in the air wearing that damnable Magical Girl outfit with a skirt too short in length. "Good! Good!" I curiously looked on as she pulled out her phone and tinkered with it for a bit before pocketing it with a grin. "I just booked you two reservations at a fancy restaurant in downtown Kuoh for the date at evening 7 PM. Have fun you two~!"
I pinched the bridge of my nose in annoyance. There she goes deciding things for us again. Was a fancy restaurant really necessary?
"O-Onee-sama…what are you doing here?" Sona finally asked still shaken up at Sera's sudden appearance. Unlike Sona, I've already gotten used to Sera's antics. The only reason I lost composure is because of Sona suddenly asking me out.
And now I want to slap myself in the face. Since the last two weeks she'd been flashing tiny barely noticeable smiles at me whenever we crossed paths or played Chess, and before that since last month she'd been showing up during my training sessions in the Underworld.
'How could I not notice it earlier?!' Sure there was the fact that I've defeated her in Chess, so I should've expected this to happen! "Are we even engaged officially?' I keep forgetting that I'm in a world where Anime logic is applicable. We've even had a study session together before my entrance exams to Kuoh!
"Hehe~! One of the wards here notified me of your presence So-tan so I decided to check what's happening here!" She giggled. "Imagine my surprise when I saw So-tan looking embarrassed and that was when I knew you were going to confess!" Cupping her cheeks Sera cooed. "And you were sooooooo adorable! You too Iza-tan after So-tan confessed!" She squealed. "I could kiss the two of you now!"
Sitting down on my chair I ran a hand through my hair. "Sera…just how many wards did you put here and why?"
Seeing blood drip out of her nose I realized why she put them.
"Hehehe~! I can't help but watch you Iza-tan! You're so adorable! And oh how I want to hug that tight body of yours!" More blood dripped out of her nose. She then drooled as she looked at me with hungry eyes. "And you look so tasty that I could gobble you up~!" Are you telling me you haven't?
Sona sighed and pulled out a napkin rubbing Sera's nose cleaning the blood and then the drool. See what I mean? Nosebleeds are a thing in this world, and so are the tic marks, therefore definitely this world follows Anime logic. And yes, tits do bounce and jiggle. It takes all my willpower and self-control to not stare at them, as doing so would hurt my pride. I'm no gentleman but I'm no pervert either.
Hearing a knock on the door Sera quickly hid herself under the table and Sona sat down on her chair straightening out her skirt.
"Come in~!" Sona briefly gave me an amused smile. She knows that this is all an act. She thinks she knows the true me, but that's only half-true. Only Sera knows what kind of person I truly am, and the fact that she basically forced me to say "Yes" means that she trusts me enough to take care of Sona, and that means a lot in and of itself.
"Cap'n, we're done for today. Can we leave?" A third year asked poking her head into the room and nodded at Sona.
Just as I opened my mouth to answer, I felt Sera run a finger across my dick over the pants. I took a sharp breath and straightened up gulping down a moan. I weakly smiled at the third year and nodded. "S-Sure thing S-Sawa-s-senpai!"
Sawa-senpai raised an eyebrow. "You okay there Cap'n?"
I smiled. "Y-Yes I-" I had to take another sharp breath as Sera stroked my dick. I don't have to look down at her to see her grin. "I'm fine Sawa-senpai! Have a nice weekend~!"
"If you say so." She shrugged and left closing the door shut. Putting up a barrier to prevent anyone from coming towards my office I pushed my chair back and stood up.
"The hell Sera?!" Sona jumped at my shout.
"Hehe~! Naughty Iza-tan~ have you grown bigger?" Sera grinned as she came out from under the table.
"O-Onee-sama…" Sona covered her mouth blushing as she realized what exactly Sera was doing under the table.
"Don't worry So-tan~! He can definitely fit inside you!" Sera replied with a thumbs up. Saying something like that so brazenly would even make me lose composure.
"Sera!/Onee-sama!"
"I'm home!" I called out as I shut the door close.
"Welcome home Izayoi!" Dad called out from the dining room.
I walked into the living room and snorted seeing mom treating a badly wounded Issei.
"Y-You d-damn shota b-bas-OW!"
"Language!"
"How did this happen?" Dad asked looking amazed and worried.
"He was picking on me, so I threw him to the lions." Dad deadpanned at me. Despite being the younger one I'm far stronger than Issei, so he definitely can't pick on me as I could and would break him if I felt like it. I shrugged and left the bento box on the kitchen counter. "By the way, Sera's sister asked me out on a date this Sunday."
"Really?!" Mom and dad both enthusiastically asked.
"Who?"
Mom and dad looked back at Issei and realized that he doesn't know everything they do.
"Souna-kaichou asked me out you dunderhead." I deadpanned.
"Oh! She's Serafall-san's sister "So-tan"?" Issei asked realization dawning on him. "Wait! Are we talking about the same Souna Shitori who's known to be feared even by the teachers?" I nodded. "She asked you out?!" I nodded as he slumped against the couch. "Damn. To be asked out by the third most popular girl of our school…" then he smugly grinned. "Well not like it matters! She's got no oppai unlike Yuuma-chan who- GUH!" He doubled over my fist as I punched him in the gut faster than he can react to.
Mom pinched the bridge of her nose while dad face palmed. "Honestly…"
"Hmm? I'm sorry I didn't quite hear you dear brother of mine. What was that you were saying about her again~?" I sweetly asked the wheezing pervert.
"S-She's… awe…so...me…ugh…!"
"Good boy!" I patted his head and turned around heading towards my room. "I'm gonna take a bath first, by then you should be fine, right onii-chan~?"
Issei shuddered. "P-Please don't call me that. It's creepy."
"Okay onii-chan~!" I snorted as he shuddered again and walked to my room. Opening the wardrobe I pulled out a yukata and a towel. Yes, yukatas and kimono are what I wear at home. They are comfortable to walk around in, don't judge me. Then I proceeded to quickly be done bathing as Issei also needed to take one to prevent any kind of infections. The nurse in the school infirmary has banned the Perverted Trio from entering it, so they can't exactly go and get treated by her. I don't care if those two die but like hell am I letting my brother die that much of an idiotic death.
After that I dried off my body and donned the yukata, then walked back to my room with my hair free untied letting Issei know that I'm done. Once Issei was done with the bath mom called us out for dinner.
"Well…looks like both of us have dates on the same day huh?" It's really hilarious how awkwardly Issei sometimes starts a conversation.
"Yep and I already have some stuff planned out for it." Can't say that it was Sera who did the planning.
Issei looked at me in awe. "Really? Damn you work fast. I still need to do some research before making a plan. Have any advice o "Effeminate Prince"?" He's really sour about my reputation in school. By now you would think he'd be used to it, but he still isn't. So sad. "You're pitying me aren't you?"
"Yup."
"That's awfully blunt of you."
"Eh, I try." I shrugged. "Anyway, just be yourself on your date, no need to go over the top about everything. This is a date to mainly know each other, so think of places she'd like to go to and also take her to places you yourself like to go to. That way both of you will know of each other's preferences."
The look Issei gave me almost made me laugh. It's like he's looking at a deity.
"Thanks a lot lil bro. I'll keep that in mind."
Sitting down at the dining table I rolled my eyes and slapped his back. "Eat."
"So Izayoi." Dad began. "Aren't you already going out with Serafall?"
I sighed. "How many times will I tell you she's joking? She's a prankster and is quite well known in her area to make fools out of everyone." In fact Sera is the only one who can get on my nerves and knows which buttons to push. Moreover I'm still not sure about our relationship but with her encouraging (read: threaten) me to accept Sona's confession, well…I didn't exactly have a choice. "We may be Mythology nerds but at best, we're best friends if not closest strangers. Her sister on the other hand is an entirely different matter altogether." I raised my hand and started pointing out what I like about Sona. "She's smart, sharp minded, perceptive, logical and an understanding person. Despite her strict and stoic exterior she's a big softie- but I did not tell you that. She may be lacking in the chest department but that doesn't matter to me because she's more beautiful in my eyes than Rias Gremory-senpai and Akeno Himejima-senpai."
"You really like her don't you?" Mom softly asked with a kind smile.
"Like is an understatement. Look at him. He's already in love." Dad commented with a laugh and I kicked him in the shins for that. "Ow!"
"I'd much rather you go out with Serafall-san, at least she has oppai and knows how to have fun." I kicked Issei in the shins for that. "Ow!" No one insults my waifu and gets away with it!
"Shut it."
Issei only grumbled.
Originally I was planning to have my familiars stalk Issei on his date and wait for Raynare to attempt to kill him so that I could jump in to save him. But looks like I'll have to leave it to my familiars. I'm sure a low class fallen like her wouldn't be a problem for them to kill.
There are two things I can think of if Raynare were to kill Issei. First would be to let canon events take place by letting him die and subsequently let Rias reincarnate him into a devil. Or I could prevent that, save Issei myself, bring his world crashing down on him by opening his eyes wide to the Supernatural myself and train him.
Following the Canon Route, things would be easier for me to tackle. But I also want to follow the other route, but that would open lots of unknown routes for me to choose. And who knows? Asia might not even come to Kuoh because of that.
Now, on the other hand if Raynare were to spare him by dismissing him as a non-threat, she'd clear his memories of her and go on her own merry way to extract Asia's Sacred Gear. And if Issei were to somehow swoon that decades old fallen, then well, he'd be shipped off to the Grigori where he'd be under the judging eyes of Vali and be properly trained by the Governing Crow into an ordinary Red Dragon Emperor, nothing outstanding like Elsha or Belzard. But that's better than what he had become under Rias's so called care. Or worse depending on how you look at it.
Oh well, I'll just leave it to his luck or fate or destiny. Hmm, I wonder if my presence is Ishibumi's doing or not, as technically he is the True God of High School DxD for creating it.
I just arrived at "Twilight", the so-called fancy restaurant that Sera booked a table at for us. It's 6:40 PM as I decided to arrive 20 minutes earlier to wait for Sona. I wore a royal blue colored formal suit with white full-sleeve button up shirt and black and yellow pinstriped tie. For footwear I wore a pair of black formal party shoes and styled my hair into the same style as Marisbury Animusphere's from Nasuverse. Sera had told me to wear formal dress and what I wore is something Sera and I bought some time ago for formal parties. Tonight is the first time I wore the entire thing.
But I'm curious. Why did Sera reserve a table here? I expanded my senses and tried to get a feel of the energy signatures in there.
"…"
I stoically stared at the restaurant. This place was packed full of devils that I have no doubt work under Sera. For Irkalla's sake… how would Sona react if she found out the truth about this place? Before I could further curse Sera's insanity in my mind I registered Sona's energy signature several meters to my right. Turning to face her, I raised a hand and opened my mouth to greet her but ended up speechless at the sight that greeted me.
Sona stood there wearing what I could recognize as an evening dress the same color as my own suit. She had a light make up and a blush on her cheeks and was missing her glasses but nonetheless…
"…You're gorgeous Sona…" I breathed out dumbstruck at how much the dress suited her. It hugged her entire body and reached her ankles. There's also a slit running up her left leg revealing quite a bit of her skin. Honestly the make up is unnecessary but I guess she wanted to look the best she could be. Either that or Sera forced her to.
"Th-Thank you Izayoi-kun. You look handsome yourself." Sona stammered out with a blush pushing a lock of hair behind her ear. Aww isn't she the adorable one?
"Well then…" I jutted out my arm. "…let's get on with our date shall we?"
Sona smiled and linked her arm with mine. "Yes."
Entering the restaurant a waiter directed us to our table that happened to be next to a dance floor with couples slowly dancing to the slow soothing music plated by the band on their platform near the wall. I noticed Sona briefly glance at the dance floor as I pulled Sona's chair and pushed her in before taking my own keeping in mind to dance with her.
"So? Is your Peerage aware of the fact that you're out on a dinner date with me?" I started the conversion ordering our food for the night. "I mean surely Shinra-senpai questioned you considering the amount of time you spent with me back at the club."
"Yes. When I returned to the council room I was interrogated by them." She smiled softly. "They were happy about it."
"What about Genshirou-senpai? It should be pretty obvious that he's crushing on you." Then there's his dream…
A frown settled on her pretty face. "He was less than pleased about it."
"Let me guess, he started hollering at the top of his lungs and badmouthed me? Calling me "short-stuff" and what not?"
Sona stared at me for a couple of seconds. "It's quite impressive how quickly you can read a person and deduce their thought pattern Izayoi-kun." That's cause of my prior knowledge about you guys. "It really showed when you first defeated me in a Chess match." Ah, sweet victory. Sona's reaction was priceless. "I still remember what you told me that day."
I winced internally. It was really edgy in my opinion.
"You know it really fascinated me how you defeated me so quickly." Sona looked me in the eyes openly expressing her awe to me. "At first I found it hard to believe what you told me after the game, so I challenged you to several more games."
"Repeat and average?"
She nodded. "Repeat and average."
"Though I'm really curious, what did you do to Genshirou-senpai?"
She smiled in a way that half scared me and half aroused me. "I lent him to Akeno."
"Oh man… not even I could've imagined doing that." I visibly cringed. Sure I am a sadist, but Akeno is a sadist you definitely don't want to be alone in a room with- that is- unless you're a masochist the likes of Darkness.
"Then he shouldn't have said those things about you."
I couldn't help but stare at her for a few moments and smiled in gratitude. "Thank you Sona. You defending me like this really means a lot." It really shows how serious she is about our relationship.
She smiled back in return. "You're welcome Izayoi-kun." We shared a smile and quietly ate the food we ordered- all paid by Sera beforehand.
As we silently ate one of my familiars contacted me through our bond. "Sir, everything went as you said it would. The Fallen did kill Issei Hyoudou, by impaling a spear through his heart. Then the Gremory heiress showed up and used all eight Pawn pieces to revive him."
I didn't visibly react as Rina, my Griffon familiar reported. "And what of the crow?"
"Shina has injured her. She's in captivity now."
"I suppose there were no other problems then?"
"None."
I internally smiled. It really feels great when a plan comes to fruition. "Good. You are dismissed. You know where to grab your rewards."
"Thank you Sir."
"Same to you and Shina." I let canon do its thing because as much as I don't like how Issei gets integrated into the Supernatural world, he would be in a better care with the Gremory House than being an independent Red Dragon Emperor because of his naivety. But I want to prevent Asia's death, so I had Shina, my Shadow Panther familiar capture Raynare. After all, I have my own plans for her.
Pushing Issei and Raynare to the back of my mind I focused on Sona. She seems to have finished eating her portion.
"Well then Sona…" I jerked my head in the dance floor's direction. "…would you like to dance with me?"
Sona looked surprised for a moment not expecting me to offer then nodded. "I'd love to."
With an eager smile I led the taller girl to the dance floor and joined the other couples in dancing to the tune of the soft jazz music. I held her hand with one of mine and placed the other on her waist and began to dance in sync with the others.
After several seconds of gazing at each other's eyes as we danced I spoke up. "How's the night so far Sona?"
"I should be the one asking you that. I did ask you out." Sona smiled softly. "But since you asked…it's good…" I pouted. "…great so far." She corrected exasperatedly and I grinned. "I got the chance to unwind tonight from the duties and responsibilities as the Student Council President. Izayoi-kun…" she lowered her head to touch her forehead with mine and gazed deep in my eyes openly expressing her emotions, and the sight of it all stunned me. "…thank you for this lovely evening. I'm having a great time."
I heartily smiled back at her, this time no masks or acts involved. "So am I Sona, so am I. I'm even willing to say that tonight's one of the best ones I've had in my life." And that's a lot coming from someone like me who has trouble truly expressing themselves with words.
"I've never really been on a date before. I'm glad my first one is with you." By this point we were at the centre of the dance floor. "You've really made me feel special Izayoi-kun. Will…" Is this the moment I've always been dreaming for? "…will you be my b-boyfriend?" I couldn't stop the gasp from leaving my mouth. Neither could I stop my eyes from widening. We didn't pause in our slow dance, and I completely ignored the disguised pair of Serafall and Grayfia.
"…yes." I breathed out. Taking a deep breath I gazed deep in her eyes. "Yes. Yes. A thousand times yes." Our roles are kinda reversed aren't they?
Sona looked shocked at my answer for a few moments then smiled with tears at the corner of her eyes. And as I had half-expected, Sona swooped down to kiss me on the lips.
'Soft…' I silently thought to myself as I closed my eyes and tightened my arm around her waist. It was a euphoric moment for the both of us and we completely ignored the world around us. If the world ended now, I wouldn't care. Sona- my waifu- truly has become mine and I will kill anyone who so as much dare to come between us even if it is Ophis itself or Great Red.
Sona and I walked down the streets of Kuoh towards her residence in Kuoh. After the kiss we shared, we didn't stay long. That one kiss alone was enough to tell me everything Sona felt about me and I've never been happier at that moment than others.
Once we had our fill of dancing we left the restaurant. I gave a thankful nod at the disguised Grayfia for gagging the equally disguised Sera from making a scene during our kiss on our way out. I have no doubt Grayfia was dragged here by Sera to record our date and I'm sure Grayfia even bothered coming here because one, she was interested, and two, she wanted to keep an eye on Sera. I'll eternally be grateful to her for this.
Once we reached her residence Sona paused at the door and looked back at me. "Do you want to stay over tonight Izayoi-kun?" I was actually surprised that Sona even asked that question. On one hand I want to say "no" and go check up on Issei then interrogate Raynare, but on the other hand…
"Only if you want me to." I left the decision to her since Issei and Raynare can wait for a day. At the moment she's more important than those two.
Instead of answering Sona opened the door and slightly stepped to the side. With a chuckle I gestured her to enter first. "Ladies first." With a shake of her head Sona entered first and I followed. "Pardon the intrusion." Sona's house is close to the school, about five minutes away. It's a rather well designed family house colored in light blue and white with a front lawn similar to ours. The sight isn't completely unexpected as Sona according to Sera doesn't like needlessly spending money despite the fortune she and her family has in store unlike Rias who spends to her heart's content.
"Do you want something to drink?"
"No, thanks." The interior of the house was similar to ours but I could tell they were made of more expensive stuff. The furniture in the living room certainly looked expensive but not over the top. There was a 42" TV atop a cabinet with… I squinted my eyes in disbelief. "Are those… video games?" I asked Sona who came down in casual home clothing with glasses on.
She blushed and nodded. "Y-Yes. Why?" She crossed her arms becoming defensive. "Is it really unexpected of me to play video games?"
I raised my arms in the air in a gesture of peace. "Frankly? Yes. I kind of expected you to have tons of books."
She huffed. "Well, they can be quite relaxing you know? Besides…" she coughed to the side embarrassed. "…it was Rias and Onee-sama who got me into them." Oh~! How cute~! "As for the books, I do have quite a few in my study room." By "a few" you mean thousands right? She pushed her glasses up. "Also, should I get you some clothes to sleep into tonight? I'm sure…" she subconsciously licked her lips as she eyed me up. "…some of my older ones would fit you well."
"Are you offering because you want my scent on them?" I quipped back at her and much to my amusement her face exploded in a massive blush.
"Wha-?" she stammered unable to deny or admit.
I laughed. "Calm down I'm joking!" She glared at me trying to appear menacing but instead looked adorable instead. "I wouldn't mind sleeping in your clothes, but I can quickly go and grab a yukata from my house if you want?"
She opened her mouth to answer but instead grasped her chin thinking of an answer. Is it something you really should think before answering? If she wants to keep her image then she'd agree to me quickly bringing a set of clothes from my house. Sona suddenly stared at me for a few moments before nodding coming to a decision.
"Follow me. I'll grab you one of my yukatas to wear." I couldn't help but smile. Looks like she really wants me to leave my scent in one of her clothes. If she didn't then with just a snap of my fingers I could've changed into a yukata. She led me to her room uncaring of the fact that a person of opposite gender is entering her room. Maybe she didn't let Japanese culture affect her? "Here." She thrusted a blue yukata that looked relatively new.
I raised an eyebrow at her. "This looks new."
Without missing a beat she pointed at what I assumed to be the bathroom and ordered, "Wear it."
Stifling a laugh I entered the bathroom and changed into it folding my suit into a neat pile and sent it away back home through a magic circle. I splashed some water to my face and used a nearby towel to dry my face. Stepping out of the bathroom I noticed Sona roaming her eyes over my entire body.
"It suits you." She said with a nod.
I smiled in amusement. "Yes, I can see that." Raising my arms to the side I spun around and had to stifle another laugh as I heard a gulp from Sona. 'Ah~ poor girl's getting all thirsty~' Pretending to not hear the gulp I asked, "What now? We could play games all night long but there's school tomorrow."
Sona shook her head. "It is as you said, we have school tomorrow. So we have fall asleep now."
I nodded in faux wise manner. "I'll take the guest room then?" I tried walking out of her room as I said that. Keyword being "tried" as she held onto my left arm's sleeve. I had a feeling I know where this is going but I'm gonna pretend I don't. You never can be too sure of yourself and maybe this will turn out to be hilarious. "Yes?"
"Not the guest room."
I raised an eyebrow. "You're gonna make me sleep on the couch?"
"No!"
"Then where? The attic?"
"Argh! I meant you will be sleeping with me in my room!"
Oh she's so adorable~! And I'm an evil person for teasing her like this. I'm sure Sera would say something among the lines of "bullying her cute So-tan" or so.
"On the floor?" I further prodded her. Teasing her is so damn fun that it's no wonder Sera does what she did in canon.
"Arrrrr!" Frustrated at my "denseness" she grabbed me by the waist and with a surprising display of strength threw me at her queen sized bed.
"Omph!" I grunted as I bounced on the bed. She must have asked Sera my training regime if she can lug around someone as heavy as me like that. I weigh 90 kilos by the way. Despite my lack of muscle definition, my bones are dense, extremely so. I may not be able to flex like other body builders, but that's more because my muscles are compact. My body is suited for someone whose fighting style heavily revolves around speed and technique. Perfect for a Knight Piece. But sadly for my opponents, I attack with speed, power and technique.
I got snapped out of my thoughts as the bed shifted with Sona getting on the bed in a pair of shorts and tank top.
"What?" She asked noticing my stare.
I shook my head and positioned myself properly on the bed. Opening my arms I asked, "Wanna sleep cuddling?" I may be rushing things but seeing as she's being quite daring- first with the kiss she initiated, secondly inviting me into her house, thirdly making me wear one of her new yukatas and finally making me sleep with her- I decided to see how far she's willing to go tonight.
Contemplating for a few moments Sona nodded. I scooted over to her and wrapped my arms around her back resting my head at the crook of her neck. She placed her chin on top of my head and wrapped her arms around my waist quite close to my butt. Sera did say my butt is irresistible and delicious looking. There were times I caught her staring hungrily at my butt drooling at the same time and let me tell you, it was a great boost to my ego.
Sona snapped her fingers and the lights went off. "Good night."
"Good night."
In the silence of the room only our breathing could be heard. After several moments of feeling her fingers twitching barely I spoke up. "You do know that you can grope my butt to your heart's content now right? I mean we're dating now aren't we?"
Sona snapped open her eyes in surprise. I didn't open mine but I can tell she did. "Isn't doing that…a bit early?"
Cracking open one eye I deadpanned, "Your sister makes me sleep naked with her whenever we're spending the night together and gropes me while smothering me with her breasts." Closing my eye I guided her hands with one of mine to my butt. "We're dating Sona. I belong to you and vice versa. So go ahead and grope me to your heart's content." I moaned into her neck as she squeezed my butt.
"What about you?" She silently asked kneading my butt like dough.
"I love cuddling. Whether it's you or Sera doesn't matter." I cracked open my eye and looked her in her eyes. "Don't tell anyone that. Not even my family knows I love cuddling."
Sona nodded kissing my forehead getting a mewl out of me. If it were anyone else from my previous life then they would've teased me, but Sona and Sera didn't. Sona pressed her nose into my hair and inhaled its scent. Before the date I made sure to properly make myself squeaky clean. Sera said that she loves running a hand through my mid-back length snow-white hair, so with mom's help I made it silky smooth and soft to the touch just in case Sona does it too. My milky-white skin- much to Sera's jealousy- has always been soft to the touch and- weirdly enough- quite sensitive to touch outside of battles or more specifically to the touch of the opposite sex. Maybe the one who reincarnated me in this logic rejection world made it like that?
I lightly groaned as Sona slowly rubbed my back with one hand and kneaded my butt with the other. She then ran a hand through my hair like I predicted her to do and softly spoke up with a hint of concern to her voice. "Speaking of my sister… how will this development of ours affect your relationship with her?"
I hummed lightly. "Well… I'd be quite depressed if she stops our activities. Don't get me wrong, I love you just as much as I love her but I've grown quite a lot attached to her, not to mention I'm extremely grateful to her for… everything. But if that doesn't happen then knowing her, she'd somehow find a way to convince you into sharing me with her."
"Technically it's her who's sharing you with me. She's told me many times that you belong to her. It's only recently that she urged me into asking you out."
"Hmm… maybe it's because of the deal you made with your parents. You know? The one where the first person to defeat you in Chess gets to marry you?" Sona roughly squeezed my butt in surprise and flinched when I let out a rather loud moan.
"S-Sorry about that!"
Before she could remove her hands from my butt I pushed her hands back to my butt. "It's fine, that just felt great is all."
"O-Oh…" she seemed surprised at my shameless admittance and I have no doubt she is blushing too from the sound of my moan. "I guess Onee-sama told you about it?"
"That she did when she found out I defeated you in chess."
"That's…like five months ago… why didn't you tell me?"
"You never brought the topic up so I didn't bother either." Of course I knew of her situation from beforehand but having Sera confirm it was a relief for me.
"Well, I couldn't just bring it up out of nowhere without establishing something between us. My parents are unaware as well."
"Knowing Sera, she'd tell them sooner or later now that we know our feelings are mutual. I guess you wanted to tell me about the engagement thing once we formed a solid relationship?"
Sona nodded against my head. "Yes. I may not look like it, but the idea of romance before marriage do…intrigue me."
"That's fine. You are a teenage girl after all."
I could feel Sona's dubious gaze on me. "And you're not a teenage boy?"
"I definitely am!" Physically that is. "Anyway, it's getting late. We should sleep."
Sona hummed bringing me closer to her. "Yes. Good night."
Snuggling into her I mumbled out a soft "Good night" to her.
And while we peacefully slept, Serafall and Grayfia watched over us, one cooing at the sight of us and the other smiling softly.
Sona POV
I slowly opened my eyes and glanced down at the mop of white hair that rested at the crook of my neck, the owner peacefully- and cutely- sleeping away. It's 6 AM, the time at which I usually wake up and prepare for school, but seeing Izayoi-kun sleeping peacefully I decided to delay the time a bit. He did mention he leaves for school by 7 AM, and with the school being five minutes away from here we have plenty time to get up.
Deciding to wake him up in 30 minutes I decided to observe him at a closer range. I don't know if I'll get this chance ever again, so I might as well savor this.
There are times when I'm really envious of Izayoi-kun. He is after all the poster boy of perfection. This white hair which was once brown is so silky smooth and soft that it goes to show how much he cares for his hair. His skin, such a beautiful shade of white not unlike to milk is so soft and smooth to the touch that it makes even my sister and me jealous of it. Despite his short stature and frail look, he gives off this aura of confidence and power that draws everyone like moths to a flame.
Then there's his intelligence. The fact that he is a scholarship student says more than enough about it. Getting a scholarship for a male student at Kuoh Academy is no laughing matter. But that's not all there is to his intelligence.
He is sharp like a sword, cunning, smart and calculating. I have experienced those first hand when he defeated me in our first Chess match in barely 10 minutes. I was truly shocked. I honestly never thought anyone who isn't my family would defeat me in something that I excel in. I still remember what he said when I asked how he defeated me.
"The moment you made your first move is the very moment I came up with plans upon plans to defeat you, and counter plans over counter plans in case those plans failed. Every move you made were what I calculated you to make. That's why I could defeat you. In fact you're the second person who has lasted more than four minutes against me."
Back then I didn't believe him, so I challenged him to more matches. The next five matches went like this: 12, 08, 09, 11 and 10 minutes. Having lost to him so many times quickly gave me all the proof I needed to believe his words. That's when I realized one thing. The moment I first challenged him is the very moment I lost. Even Onee-sama has lost to him but did win a few.
"Eh? Iza-tan is really hard to defeat! He's scary when it comes to strategic games like these. Even I had a hard time against him!"
I never expected my Onee-sama of all people to lose to anyone.
Then there is his skills with the bow and swords. I'm not a physical combatant, I don't know much about how to fight with swords or hands but seeing him train his techniques and moves, even I can tell that all of them were created to kill quickly and efficiently with the least of efforts made. But that's not all, I've even witnessed his magic training and the things he can do left me stumped and doubtful of what I knew about demonic power myself.
The way he deals with my sister is also something that surprised me. It's like he knows what she will do and when. He doesn't even bat an eyelash to her antics going along with them as if what she does wasn't anything new to him. He even knows how to keep her on a leash, unlike Grayfia-sama, who no matter how much was feared by Onee-sama couldn't properly control her. She even asked Izayoi-kun how to deal with Sirzechs-sama and Onee-sama despite having the former at a leash.
Over the six months that I've known him told me everything I needed to know about him. He truly is worthy of being Onee-sama's Queen. He is talent given human- now devil- form. And I'm glad she did because if not then I wouldn't have been able to meet someone as great as him.
I looked down and had to suppress a flinch when my blue eyes met his gold ones. I couldn't help the smile when I saw the love he felt for me in his eyes. "Good morning."
He pouted in a manner that if I didn't have any self-restraint I would've already started kissing him. "Only "Good mooring"? What about a kiss?" I couldn't help but blush lightly. Last night I completely went with what my instincts demanded me to do. Well, mostly, because if I went with everything it demanded then I'm sure both of us would have sore hips and I probably wouldn't have been able to walk. 'Probably.'
Shaking those thoughts away I leaned down and kissed him fully on the lips swallowing the moan that left him. While kissing him I trailed my hand downwards and softly kneaded his rather plump and bubbly butt. He let out another throaty moan and opened his mouth. 'Does he…?' Noticing the expectant look in his eyes I realized he actually wanted what I thought he did. But sadly I had to break off the kiss as I needed to breathe. Hearing his whimpers I actually felt bad for breaking the kiss. So taking a deep breath I pulled his small body against me by grabbing his butt and captured his lips. The moan this time was deeper and longer.
Tilting my head I licked his lips and his mouth opened easily letting my tongue inside his cavity. Being the experienced one out of the two of us Izayoi-kun guided me into the French kiss as he tightly wrapped his arms around my back. We swallowed each other's moans as we wrestled with our tongues for dominance but soon he won out due to his experience. It's a bit depressing that I wasn't his first kiss but something insignificant like that didn't matter because we love each other and that's all that matters.
Soon we had to break off the kiss for my lungs screamed for Oxygen. I cursed myself having less Oxygen capacity than him, if I had a larger capacity then our kiss would've lasted longer.
"Don't worry Sona." As if reading my thoughts he cupped my cheek and lovingly gazed at me. "No need to be depressed. We have all the time of the world to kiss for longer periods of time. No need to rush, okay?" I nodded and he pecked my lips. "It's nearing 7 AM now, let's get ready for school. I don't have any problem skipping my club's morning practice session but you can't afford to miss out on your duties can you?" It's already that late? How long were we kissing?
"What are you? My house husband?" I couldn't help but ask that question. Half of it was out of reflex and the other half was out of curiosity for what his answer would be.
"For you I'm more than willing to be one if it means waking up to your presence every morning."
'Damn you Izayoi-kun! Don't be so smooth or I might just melt~!' I tried to force down my blush but remained unable to do so as he gave me another kiss full of love.
"…if we keep going like this then not only would we be late to school but also would make me want to marry you right here and now."
"Then what are we waiting for?" he smiled widely at me. "Let's do it now."
'Ahhhhhh! Nononono! Control yourself Sona! Control yourself! Don't let your base instincts get to you!" I couldn't help but run my eyes all over his delicious body and gulped. 'I really am a Shotacon aren't I like Onee-sama said?'
"Enough." I tried to sound stern but failed as my voice wavered. "Let's get ready for school." The "before I lose control" was left unspoken in the air.
He chuckled and got up performing stretches in the loose yukata- which revealed the soft skin of his neck and shoulder- that did things to me I don't want to put into words. Before I could lose control I quickly pulled out my school uniform and entered the bathroom to get ready. The longer I stare at him the hungrier I will be.
Did I mention that even boys give him love letters? It's only been a month into the school year and he has already received over hundred love letters, a fifth of them being from boys even though he made it clear that he is straight.
I checked myself in the mirror and paid a bit of extra attention to my appearance. I guess it's a subconscious need to make sure I look the most pleasing in his eyes?
Coming out of the bathroom I found my room empty except for the yukata I lent him. Honestly last night he was right in assuming that I wanted something to keep his scent with, so I gave him the yukata I bought for him in case he ever stayed over. Do I sound like a pervert? Yes I do. Do I care? No. He did say that we belong to each other so I guess it's fine if I wear this one later. No one would blame me if I do right? 'Hopefully…'
I walked down the stairs towards the kitchen to see him already in school uniform preparing breakfast. Like any model student he wore the entirety of the school uniform except he wore the waistcoat instead of the blazer, and I'm glad he did because otherwise the blazer would've been unable to properly highlight his body. His hair this time was done in a bun with two bangs framing the sides of his face down to his chin. The first time I saw him with this hairstyle I took him for a girl who preferred men's clothing.
"Take a seat Sona, you came just in time for me to serve breakfast."
Who's the host again? "I should be the one to prepare breakfast Izayoi-kun. This is my house and you're my guest."
"Am I?" he chuckled as he placed a several plates containing sunny side up eggs, bacon and bread. "I doubt you'd let your guest sleep in the same room as you and engage in romantic activities."
"…"
Why does he have to make good points? It's not fair! I should be the smarter one among us! I levelled a glare at him for being all smart and logical, and he only chuckled amused!
"Mark my words Izayoi-kun, I will get back at you for this."
"Ohhh scary!" Saying that he giggled. All I could do was growl at him, damn him and his adorableness. If he wasn't adorable then I would've hit him upside the head for this. Nobody one-ups me! Nobody!
Checking the time I stood up and gathered out plates. "I'll wash them after school. Let's go."
He shrugged. "If you say so. But be sure to take that bento with you." He looked down and shuffled his feet. Looking up at me with big eyes that tugged at my heartstrings he nervously (not) said, "I prepared some lunch for you. I hope it will be to your liking."
I nodded not trusting my voice. Don't worry Izayoi-kun, even if it was Nuclear Waste you prepared for me I would still eat it, after all it is you who made it. "What about yours?"
"Mom will make Baka-nii bring it to the school for me."
Well that's convenient. "Okay."
He smiled widely. "Great! Let's go then!"
That smile, that damned smile. Even the coldest of hearts would melt at its sight. "Yes. Let's go." Listening to Onee-sama and asking Izayoi-kun out has so far been one of the best decisions in my life. I'm not perfect, I have my errors but that doesn't mean I can't aim for absolute perfection like Izayoi-kun. I won't give up, because as his significant other, even if the perfection is a mask I will obtain it.
This is a promise to myself.
Author's Note: Hey there everyone! Once again I present to you another story. This time being a SI-OC one. Mind you this is another plot bunny that has been hopping around my brain for a while like most of my stories. I hope you liked it!
Many of you might point out that I united Sona and my OC too quickly. In a way you're right but mostly you're wrong. As I mentioned earlier in the story, there will be small flashbacks in the form of interludes in the future where the 15 years of my OC's life will be shown. So please don't bully me in the reviews by bringing this topic up.
Also, are any of you willing to help me progress with the story? "The Killer Mohawk" has already helped me out with this chapter. We have shared a lot of ideas on Discord, so if any of you are willing to co-operate then you can add me as a friend using "Hikori Takeo#3025".
If there is anyone willing to Beta read my chapters then please contact me on Discord. I know I'm not the best writer and make a lot of mistakes, so if anyone is willing to help me out with my chapters then feel free to let me know. That is of course as long as you don't ask for any kind of payment or make ridiculous demands.
Criticism is welcome.
The date scene is written by using Whackybiscuit's story "Even Bees Love Strawberries" chapter four as reference.
