Chapter 4 - I'm traumatized...

Secrets. Some have many while others have none. Most secrets exist due to some kind of embarrassing experience or seeing something "bad". I say bad loosely because "bad" can be taken as a scandal or perhaps the murder of another individual.

I'm a big fan of secrets because I don't want to speak about my life with other people. Maybe Komachi or Ichigo and that's where the list would stop. Personally, I think secrets are a way to bond with others. You could only tell secrets to your closest person, so telling someone something precious is a show of trust. Like how Ichigo told us his identity last night.

Here's the part that I don't like. When you discover something you didn't want to know and it happened to also be about you, it creates distrust. For my situation in this very instant, I can't even process my emotions due to my disbelief of what I'm hearing right now.

"Mmmm Ichi-nii...harder..." Oh my God. Oh my GOD! OH MY GOD!!!

Now, I was having a wonderful day. I had a dreamless night, but I was going through the best morning I have gone through all my life. Yes, I'm exaggerating once again, but who cares; bite me.

Anyways, I went down to get some water and to see if Komachi is making breakfast. To my surprise, she wasn't there at all and so being the good brother that I am, I decided to wake her up. That's how I ended up putting my ear on the door and hearing my little sister MOAN the name of my BEST FRIEND!

"Your fingers are a gift from above Ichi-nii. It feels so good..."

I was imagining the worst thing ever and I couldn't stop myself from forming visual images. Some part of me was deciding on what to do with Ichigo. Castration? Maiming? Throat punch? I don't know. All I comprehend is that something is going on behind this door and I have to figure out what.

"Koma-Chan. Why don't you go on top now? It's my turn." I shivered. Ichigo wouldn't...would he? Komachi just started middle school! Does...d-did he developed some strange tastes while he was away?? That can be the only explanation.

Hold up Hachiman. You're better than this. Your life is not an anime nor a manga. Besides, Ichigo always saw Komachi as his own little sister. There is n- Oh no. What if he's into sister play?

Maybe we should get your brother to join in our next session." You dirty bastard!! This...this isn't right! I have to stop this now!!

"HEY!!"I opened the door violently and what I saw was kind of normal? Ichigo was laying down on Komachi's bed with eyes closed while Komachi was standing on his back, looking at me.

"What's wrong Onii-Chan? Did you need something?" Wait. They were massaging each other...

"Hachi, what happened?" Ichigo asked as he slowly got up. I couldn't even look them in the eye as I tried to find some type of excuse. It was only a moment later did I look up to see Ichigo s**t-eating grin. Damn his intelligence! He figured me out way too quickly.

Ichigo opened his mouth. "Koma-Chan. Everything is okay. Your brother just has a very broad imagination." Curse you, you smug bastard.

"Okay?" She tilted her head in confusion. Ahhh Komachi. You and your innocence. How precious. Good thing kids don't ask questions. Ichigo still kept his smile on his face and it threatened to blow up in laughter.

"Not a word," I said before I closed the door and left. Walking down the stairs, I heard howling, muffled laughter that came from behind me. I was so flustered by everything that I nearly tripped on the way down.

During the ride to school, I tried to outspeed Ichigo so that I could ignore him, however, I forgot one thing. His annoying physical prowess. I can't outwalk him, much less beat him in a race, so I sighed in resignation and slowed down to save energy for the rest of the day. There goes my perfect morning.

Overall, it was a pretty normal day. Who am I kidding? It was a disaster! I always thought that Ichigo liked being low-key and hated attention and what does he do on this fine day of school? He gathers everyone from the sports club during the lunch break and advertises himself. 5,000 yen per match for every club and 20,000 yen per tournament. First time deals are free for every sports club.

It was easy to guess as to what the reaction was for every student there, but I didn't care. I was happily consuming Ichigo's homemade bento like a pig in the background. I love Stealth Hikky so much. Too bad it's ineffective on Ichigo. I couldn't hide from him when we were kids and now as a teen, he had way too many resources to use to find anyone that is breathing.

Going back to the show, Ichigo challenged every sports club after school with him being at a disadvantage in every match. If he can win, his words will take effect and they would have to start paying for his services if they needed him. If he loses even once, he will immediately drop out. Of course, the principal and the teachers decided to interfere since they didn't want to lose their best student, but Ichigo had a way with words that I can't measure up to. The guy was oozing charisma everywhere.

What I witnessed was nothing short of a miracle. For the Tennis Club, it was a doubles match against 3rd years with Ichigo by himself. I understand that Ichigo asked for a disadvantage, but this was way too much. The 1st year versus two 3rd years? Do they not have shame? Those were my initial thoughts.

Ichigo service aced through all 3 sets. He actually let them play another set for some kind of mercy, but I knew better. I knew Ichigo. He wanted to completely crush them and he did it perfectly. Similarly, this happened to the other clubs. The only time Ichigo lost a point was in the soccer club, and that was because eight people blocked him while the ninth held onto his legs. If they were cheating, Ichigo stayed quiet and tore through them which helped to break their spirits faster.

Seriously. it's never boring with Ichigo around is it?
