...
Badr emerged from his room, still dressed in his yukata.
"Itsuki?"
"Oh, Badr! I brought back some late-night snacks. Would you like some?"
"Sure, let's see what you got," Badr replied with a smile.
Itsuki seemed a bit concerned about Nino.
"Um...is Nino feeling alright...?"
"What's wrong?"
"I just saw her walking a bit strangely..."
Badr: "..."
He blinked, a thought dawning on him. He understood.
He chuckled softly. "Nino said her legs were a little numb from standing too long..."
Itsuki tilted her head cutely, puzzled as to why Nino's legs would be numb. Badr, of course, wouldn't explicitly explain the real reason. Nino's thin skin probably wouldn't survive it.
"Is that so...?"
"That's so," Badr confirmed with a serious nod.
It was impossible for her to be uncomfortable. On the contrary, she was probably too comfortable...
As for her unusual gait…
Well, it was their first time, and they'd chosen to do it standing up. Perfectly normal...
…
Since they'd had dinner not long ago, they didn't eat much of the late-night snacks.
Badr and the girls, after all, weren't big eaters like Itsuki.
After sampling a few bites, they decided to head back to their rooms to rest. A day of classes followed by a long car ride and a relaxing onsen experience had left them all feeling languid.
Back in his room, Badr glanced at the time. 10:30 pm. He wasn't sleepy yet.
He picked up the remote, turned on the TV, and flipped through the channels, landing on a movie channel. As expected, the film playing was one starring Mai Sakurajima.
Mai had recently landed a movie role, and she would be busy for the next two to three months. Badr couldn't bring himself to disturb her, so he resorted to occasional phone calls and watching her movies.
In the adjacent room, Ichika and Miku were both in a state of indecision.
They were debating whether or not to visit Badr's room.
After confessing their feelings to Badr, they both wanted to be as bold and decisive as Nino, but they couldn't quite muster the courage at this moment.
But… they had already confessed. Surely, it was okay to just go see him?
He was their boyfriend now, after all.
Ichika thought to herself, lightly slapping her cheeks as she stood by her door, gathering the courage to go to Badr's room.
She opened the door, ready to step out, but froze when she saw Miku standing in front of Badr's door.
Ichika: "…??"
Seeing Miku, Ichika stopped in her tracks and quickly retreated back into her room.
"I'd like to chat with you, if you don't mind…"
Ichika heard Miku's voice, followed by Badr's gentle reply: "Sure."
Then, Ichika heard the sound of a door closing. Miku had gone into Badr's room…
Ichika gave a wry smile. She had hesitated for just a moment…
And now, her younger sister had beaten her to it…
The thought of missing this rare opportunity because of Miku left Ichika feeling a bit dejected.
Oh well… it seemed tonight wasn't her chance. She would try again tomorrow.
Meanwhile, inside Badr's room, Miku sat with a slightly nervous expression.
Her cheeks were flushed, making her look incredibly cute. She wore the same yukata as the others after the onsen, revealing her slender waist and ample curves.
Badr, having just experienced intimacy with Nino, subconsciously compared Nino and Miku's figures.
And he had to admit, all five sisters were similarly well-endowed…
"Are you always up this late?"
Badr picked up a carton of milk from the table and offered it to Miku.
"Um… I tend to sleep late. Usually around midnight…"
Miku sat down on the edge of the bed. Noticing the movie playing on the TV, she smiled faintly. "I often watch movies or play games at night, and then I can't get out of bed the next morning…"
"Still into Three Kingdoms stuff?" Badr asked with a smile.
"…Yeah. Am I weird for liking those older warlord characters…?"
"There's nothing weird about it. It's the same as liking Gundam. You don't need other people's approval. Just enjoy what you like."
Badr smiled. He was genuinely surprised that Miku was into warlords, though.
Miku pursed her lips slightly and held up a box she had been carrying.
"I brought a game. Want to play together?"
She looked at Badr expectantly, clearly eager to play games with him.
Badr chuckled. "You brought a game and controllers on a trip?"
"Yeah," Miku admitted shyly. Thinking he might not want to play, she added with a hint of disappointment, "...Is that okay?"
"Of course, it's okay. I just didn't expect you to bring a game."
Badr smiled as he opened the game box. Inside was a fighting game featuring warring generals, designed for two players with controllers.
"This looks great, I'm in."
Truthfully, what boy didn't like video games, especially fighting games? What they usually lacked was a friend to play with. And now, not only did he have someone to play with, but it was his girlfriend. It was like a dream come true.
Seeing Badr's enthusiasm, Miku's face lit up. She quickly set up the game, and the TV screen transformed into a giant monitor.
Perfect!
Badr lay back on the bed, controller in hand, looking at his girlfriend, who was eager to play with him. He couldn't have been happier.
"Miku?"
"Hm?"
"How about a penalty for the loser?" Badr suggested with a playful grin.
Miku blinked. "What kind of penalty?"
Badr's eyes scanned Miku's figure. His initial thought was "loser removes a piece of clothing," but they were both only wearing yukatas, so that wouldn't last long...
Tempting as the idea was, he decided against it…
"The loser of each round has to kiss the winner. How about that?" Badr proposed with a smile.
Playing video games with his girlfriend and getting to be affectionate with her? It couldn't get any better!
Miku's face flushed at his suggestion.
The loser kisses the winner… Was this a punishment for the loser or a reward for the winner…?
"O-Okay…"
Miku couldn't resist the temptation and agreed.
Badr smiled, gently pulling Miku closer by her waist, so she was leaning against him on the bed, and picked up his controller.
Miku froze, her back pressed against Badr's chest.
S-So close…
Her heart pounded in her chest, her mind feeling a little fuzzy.
They quickly chose their characters.
"Ready?"
"Y-Yes…"
They pressed start, and the characters appeared on screen. The countdown began: three, two, one.
Miku focused, her fingers instinctively working the controller. She managed to land a few hits, chipping away at Badr's health bar.
Badr tried to counterattack, but he was clearly at a disadvantage.
"Wait, which button is the special attack...?"
Badr rested his chin on Miku's shoulder, chuckling as he fumbled with the controls. "Why is the jump button this one? This button layout is so weird."
"Take this!"
Miku giggled excitedly, ignoring Badr's struggles with the controls and unleashing a rapid combo that left him defenseless.
[KO!]
Miku's character let out a taunting laugh as Badr's long-legged female warrior crumpled to the ground.
"I win!" Miku cheered cutely.
Badr conceded defeat and kissed Miku's cheek.
Smooch
Miku's legs straightened stiffly. "...Eep!"
…
Miku's reaction was rather dramatic, as if she had been greatly startled. Her legs were completely rigid.
But she looked incredibly cute like that, which Badr found amusing.
It took Miku a few seconds to recover. She turned to look at Badr, her lips trembling slightly.
"Badr, Y..."
Badr smiled, tightening his hold on Miku's waist and whispering in her ear,
"A bet's a bet."
"..."
Miku was speechless for a moment, her blush reaching her ears. But she was undeniably thrilled.
"A-Another round?"
"Let's do it." Badr gripped his controller, a look of mock seriousness on his face.
The second round began, and Badr's playing improved considerably. He landed a few consecutive hits, surprising Miku, who quickly retaliated. Soon, however, Badr's female warrior was defeated once more.
"...Miku, how are you so good at this?"
Badr was impressed by how easily Miku had executed a super move to finish him off. He hadn't expected her to be so skilled.
"I've just played a lot…"
Miku was a bit embarrassed by the praise. She wondered if she should go easy on him.
But she also wanted to win. Her competitive spirit was getting the better of her…
However… losing meant she got to kiss him. That was quite a tempting reward…
Miku wrestled with these conflicting thoughts. If Badr knew what she was thinking, he would probably find it quite amusing.
