"You—what are you two doing?!!!"
As soon as Kawasaki entered the classroom, she noticed Hikigaya and Kasumigaoka, both with slightly disheveled clothes, sneaking around and engaging in some questionable activities.
Hikigaya was sitting on a student bench, while Kasumigaoka was perched on his lap with her fair legs crossed, wrapping her arms around his neck in a manner that suggested she was about to kiss him.
Of course, it was just a kiss—nothing more, for now. But with the way they were positioned, it was clear that things were about to get out of hand.
"Oh, it's Kawasaki," Kasumigaoka glanced at the angry girl before unhesitatingly kissing Hikigaya.
Hikigaya struggled for a moment, but Kasumigaoka was so eager and assertive that it was hard for him to resist. Eventually, he had no choice but to let her kiss him.
"!!"
Kawasaki stood frozen in shock, her anger surging as she walked toward the two, shouting, "Kasumigaoka, stop it right now!"
"Nope," Kasumigaoka purred, clearly enjoying herself, "I'm going to devour Air-kun now~ Ahh, it's so nice! Air-kun, you feel so different now. Your taste is amazing, your scent is intoxicating, and your level... is fantastic, Air-kun~ Air-kun~ I love you so much~"
Kasumigaoka gazed at him with affection, shamelessly expressing her feelings.
"Are you out of your mind!!"
Kawasaki trembled with fury, immediately grabbing Kasumigaoka's shoulder, trying to pull her away. "You're not going to touch Hikigaya today. I won't let you. I... I won't let you wear him out!!"
"Wear him out?" Kasumigaoka suddenly laughed. "Kawasaki, Air-kun was fed by Yukinoshita this afternoon. He's full of energy now~"
"That's impossible!"
"Don't believe me? Haha, well, take a good look at Air-kun's complexion. See? He looks so healthy, full of vitality~"
As she spoke, Kasumigaoka cupped Hikigaya's face and presented it to Kawasaki.
Earlier, Hikigaya had looked pale, clearly exhausted, but now... he looked flushed, full of energy.
Even more strangely, there was a strong masculine aura surrounding him—intense and pleasant, complementing his handsome face that made Kawasaki's heart race.
Without thinking, Kawasaki instinctively squeezed her legs together, dazed by the sight.
"Kawasaki, Kawasaki..." Kasumigaoka called several times, her smile widening. "Hmm? Do you want Air-kun too?"
"Eh? Eh!!!"
Kawasaki quickly snapped back to reality. When she saw the teasing glint in Kasumigaoka's eyes, her face flushed bright red, and she hurriedly said, "I-I'm not interested."
"Not interested? Haha, your eyes are practically glued to him, and you tell me you're not interested?"
"I'm not!"
Her face still burning, Kawasaki tried to stay calm, saying, "Kasumigaoka, this is a classroom. This is where we learn! We... we can't act like this!"
"Yes, it's a place for learning. But now I'm going to teach Air-kun properly~"
Kasumigaoka smiled sweetly, and sitting on Hikigaya's lap, she secretly kissed his cheek again.
"You—" Kawasaki ground her teeth in frustration. "We still have to clean up! Don't forget our task for today!"
"It's fine, fine. After we're done, cleaning can wait."
"You... you..."
"Well, what do you think? Want to join in?"
"Go to hell!"
Kawasaki, of course, wasn't the type to give in to such temptations.
"Oh, I see. Since you're not joining, Kawasaki, you can just stay and watch. Feel free to clean a little if you want. We'll clean up afterward, Air-kun and I."
With that, Kasumigaoka prepared to kiss Hikigaya again.
Kawasaki was beside herself with fury, her body trembling with indignation.
As for Hikigaya, he barely managed to speak, "S-Senpai, c-could you... wait a moment...?"
"What is it?"
"I'm... I'm a little thirsty."
"Thirsty?"
Kasumigaoka raised an eyebrow, surprised. "Didn't I just kiss you?"
"My throat... it's so dry..."
Hikigaya's voice was trembling, as though he was being roasted in a desert.
"I can't stand it, let me drink some water first..."
"I've got some here," Kawasaki said, her face full of concern, rushing to add, "I have some in my desk. I'll get it for you."
"No need," Kasumigaoka interrupted before Kawasaki could turn away. "I have water too."
"Under your desk?"
Kawasaki asked, because Kasumigaoka's seat was directly behind Hikigaya, so it was closer than Kawasaki's seat.
Kasumigaoka smiled without replying, slowly standing up from Hikigaya's lap and sitting back at her own desk.
"Air-kun, I'll get you the finest mineral water~ Hehe~"
"Then hurry up and get it!"
Seeing how thirsty Hikigaya looked, Kawasaki became desperate.
"Why the rush? I'm preparing it now."
"??"
Kawasaki was confused, but as a woman, she soon sensed something was off.
"Wait a second..."
...
Five or six minutes later.
Kawasaki was stunned, frozen in place, unsure of what to make of it.
What the hell!
What happened to Hikigaya today? Compared to this morning, he's practically transformed from a little kitten into a fierce tiger! So full of manly charm!
Wait...
What am I even thinking?! These two were just...
"Se-Senpai..."
"No worries, Air-kun~"
"You two, stop it! Not on the seats! Don't do this on the desks!"
Seeing them gazing lovingly at each other, Kawasaki immediately interrupted.
"Well... Kawasaki's right, we shouldn't do this on the desks."
Hikigaya tried to maintain some last shred of reason.
"Air-kun," Kawasaki sighed in relief.
"Okay, the desks are out, then... Air-kun, let's go to the podium~ You carry me there~"
"Podium..."
"The desk still needs cleaning, Kawasaki, so let's go to the podium first. Pick me up quickly."
"Senpai..."
Hikigaya, looking at the long-legged beauty before him, continued to struggle with himself. He wanted to remain faithful to Yukinoshita, but for some reason, his hands moved on their own, and he ended up lifting Kasumigaoka into his arms, walking toward the podium.
"Hey, you two..."
Kawasaki was left dumbstruck, her face bright red.
That's the teacher's podium!!
