o1. Intro

[dedicatus545]

Ayase’s jaw almost dropped at Kyosuke’s baffled expression. She doesn’t really understand what was going on here. First he tells her that he doesn’t remember her confession, then he acts like nothing had happened, and now he doesn’t have a girlfriend?

This is nuts.

Perhaps she should  call Kiri- er no wait, she can’t talk about that kind of stuff with her. Ah yes, Manami! Manami could tell her if-

” Oh. Huh, imagine that. Would have expected a pervert to have had two or more girlfriends. Er. You’re not lying are y-?”

She shook her head. Nah, everything was too complicated at this point. Perhaps the best way to do this was just to accept things as they are. 

” w-well. Never mind that! Anyways, you know where my classroom is right? Let’s get going. First period is gonna start soon”

Maybe a few hours in class would help her think.

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[The development of things didn't help Kyosuke to follow the conversation but still he had no clue what was on her mind.]

Ugh,...

Like I said, when did I have a girlfriend?

[He couldn't talk her back at her calling him a pervert after the times he had the thing he had told her before. And it wasn't like he didn't enjoy watching her photo shoots. Still, it hurt whenever she said it. Then she just changed the subject like that and even though he wanted to keep asking, she started walking ahead of him and then he followed suit.]

Wa-Wait! Won't you let me at least walk beside you?

[He was walking a bit behind but given her mood, maybe asking for things was stretching his luck a little.]

[dedicatus545]

o1. Intro

[dedicatus545]

Ayase listened to Kyosuke’s reply carefully. She tapped her foot on the tiled floor, a pensive look crossing her delicate features. She stayed silent, observing Kyosuke’s every move carefully. The way he looked when he said those words, his very visage…she didn’t want to admit it, but it seems as if he was telling her the truth.

What was going on…? Did he already forget?

“ Y-you know who I’m talking about. That girl you like, your girlfriend!” 

The blunette whispered ferociously, a bit self conscious of the people staring and whispering. She was no stranger to these kinds of things, seeing as how people were always openly staring and whispering while she was around, but she felt like she had to protect Kyosuke’s reputation somehow, even if she sort of hated him at the moment.

” O-or was that just a lie? Is she not your girlfriend…or?”

If she wasn’t his girlfriend…if he didn’t remember everything after all…

Perhaps.

There was a chance

[lifecounselingoniisan]

My girlfriend? I don't remember ever having a girlfriend in my life.

[Kyosuke was seriously lost, he had no idea what she was talking about and as far as he remembered, he had never had a girlfriend in his whole life.]

Did you hear some sort of rumor from someone or something like that? Because I surely have no idea what's going on here.

[Was this perhaps the reason why she was avoiding him as well? She thought he was telling her those things while having a girlfriend and then she got mad at him? Because at least he knew she had somewhat let go of the whole incident with Kirino but of course he had no idea she already knew the truth about him saying all of that to protect Kirino and her hobby.]

[dedicatus545]

o1. Intro

[dedicatus545]

” An email? I…I hadn’t received any emails from you ever since…that day! I thought that you were uh. Well. Avoiding me.”

Ayase bit her lip uncertainly, averting her gaze away from Kyosuke. Even if she herself seemed to think that she knew Kyosuke thoroughly in and out, there were still times when he surprised her. It was both thrilling and unsettling all at the same time, and though it used to amuse her, it became a moot point for Ayase at the moment.

Why was he smiling and carrying on like that? Shouldn’t he be at least a wee bit awkward around her considering the situation they got into because of her declaration of love for him? Shouldn’t he be at least thinking about it a little? Don’t tell me that he already forgot about it!-

But how do you want me to stop looking at you? You’re the girl I like most, after all!

Ayase turned a tomato red, Kyosuke’s next set of words rendering her speechless for the third time that day. ” W-wha…you!” She took a deep breath, then slowly turned on her heel to walk away. ” Stop saying things like that if you don’t mean it! After all considering how you responded to me the last time…”

“…you still like her right?!”

She spun around, hair whipping back to her side; revealing an angry…or was it anguished? expression on her face. She bit her lip, then looked down at the ground. ” You’re acting so cheery all of sudden. What’s with that? Does that mean that you forgot? Or…do you have an answer for me?”

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Her reaction was quite unexpected. As far as he remembers, he had no idea as to what she was talking about. "like her"? Who might she be referring to? Was this some sort of misunderstanding?]

Avoiding you? I thought it was you who didn't want to see me or hear about me.

  [What was more confusing was that she was talking about an answer for her but he had no idea what answer did he promise to her. Was it something he forgot? But he couldn't have possibly forgotten something that had to do with her. Kyosuke felt troubled now that she had said all of that and was trying hard to remember anything that could've been said that he might've taken the wrong way but there was just nothing.]

Ayase, I seriously don't know what you're talking about and who is "her"?

[Everything he could do was to ask her directly or this wouldn't go on and there were already people watching from far away and peeking at them while whispering to themselves.]

[dedicatus545]

o1. Intro

[dedicatus545]

” W-what?! Y-You! W-What are you-“

Ayase was temporarily at a loss for words. To think that she’d come across someone familiar here, in this prestigious academy of all places! And to think that it had to be him. Why is he here?! More importantly, why didn’t Kirino and Manami tell her that the was transferring here at Tancho? Didn’t she tell them that she was going to transfer to this academy in a couple of weeks? They could’ve at least given her a heads up or something…

” W-what are you getting so close to me for?! Stop looking at me like that you pervert!”

The raven haired girl balled her hand into a fist. First she comes across this weird…stupid, idiot who she is secretly in love with by the way  has the audacity to stalk wishful thinking, Ayase her all the way here to this academy and now he’s looking at her with those…lecherous eyes?!

The way he looks at you seems even more tame compared to the fans from earlier Ayase, what are you talking about? 

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[To say that Kyosuke wasn't secretly a fan of her works as a model would be a lie, since he even visited the blog that someone else had set up with more photos of Ayase and always uploaded the cutest pics into said blog that Kyosuke already considered his haven where he always went to "recharge" whenever he was feeling down or on low energies.]

Eh? Pervert? But I've been attending to this school for quite a while already...

And I think I sent you an e-mail about it as soon as I got changed...

[He had sent said e-mail and even though Ayase had already taken his number out of her black list, she might've not done the same with his mail and that would mean that she never got the mentioned e-mail but Kyosuke didn't have any way of knowing that since not getting reply from her about it could've meant that she didn't want to reply at all too.]

But how do you want me to stop looking at you? You're the girl I like most, after all!

[dedicatus545]

o1. Intro

” Hmmm…this sure looks like a pretty prestigious school. I guess I didn’t make the wrong decision by transferring here.”

Flipping her hair behind her, the raven haired girl continued on her way towards the bulletin board, where the class assignments were listed. A couple of the male students gaped in her presence, then started pointing her out frantically to their friends, who whipped out their cellphones and started taking pictures of her.

Ayase sighed. She should’ve already been used to this by now, but up to this day it still bothered her. Shouldn’t they at least ask permission from her first before taking those damned pictures? But then again, there was her reputation as a model to think about. She had to smile and act like nothing was wrong, even if this made her feel sort of violated. 

The model bit her lip. If only Kirino was here with her…Kirino wouldn’t stand for this. She had the courage to mouth off even if it would probably harm her popularity. A bitter smile made it’s way into Ayase’s features. That courage and honesty…it made her feel jealous in a way.

Deciding not to dwell on it for now, Ayase focused her attention back to the board. “…class A huh? Hm…I wonder where class A could be…” Noticing another person next to her, she sauntered over with a smile. ” Um excuse me! Do you know where I-A’s classroom is? I just transferred here so…”

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Another boring day at the academy. It was still start of the new school term so it wasn't strange to see still new students coming and going from the main board at the entrance. Actually he decided to stay and see the list in case he could spot any name he already knew. As he was looking at it, he was asked a question by a girl. For some reason the voice sounded oddly familiar but he started his reply before actually turning to see whoever asked.]

Ah, yes, you just go through the main entrance and the classroom is right afte-

[Just as he finally turned to see who he was talking to, his ability of speech was briefly taken away from him.]

AH-AH-AYASE?!

IS THAT REALLY YOU?!

[LOVELY MY ANGEL AYASE-TAN! Would have been what he wanted to yell instead but that would've undoubtedly grant him a high heel kick straight in the face. Engrossed in the excitement of meeting his favorite idol here, he got too close to her as if trying to confirm he wasn't mistaking her from someone else or even dreaming.]

[lifecounselingoniisan]

Away from home [Nina]

[magichalcyon-blog]

Dense as she is, Nina did not really understand at first what all the fuss was about and she only looked on in confusion at the smirking cleaning lady. How many cleaning ladies had entered her room today? Was her room really all that messy? What is…going on…

But then of course, there was that little issue of Kyosuke accidentally groping her left boob.

Nina was temporarily rendered speechless by this sudden turn of events, and she could only stare at the young man who had now rolled off the bed to yell at the cleaning lady who, had once again misunderstood like the one who had gone into her room earlier. But that wasn’t something important at the moment. Dense she may be, but perpetually clueless about this whole situation she was not. 

” Y-you….you…”. Nina bit her lip and trembled, looking like she was about ready to cry. ” I…I…AHHHHH!!!!!!”.

Nina let out a shriek that sounded like it came from someone who was being molested by some random pervert. The misunderstanding will definitely escalate because of this.

…And sure enough, the pair could hear people murmuring and talking to one another behind the closed door. 

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[For one reason or the other, Kyosuke was always drawn to compromising situations where misunderstandings that are quite difficult to be cleared arise. Apparently, this was going to be yet another one to the list of those scenarios he's had so far.]

I-I-It wasn't my intention I swear!!!

[However he wasn't so confident that this would just go away with an apology so he didn't get closer to her or she would most likely either punch him or kick him. She could also throw stuff at him but Kyosuke had still no idea how he was going to make her up for this accident and he hadn't even taken into account the voices outside of the room and the giggles from other girls in the dorms as well.]

[lifecounselingoniisan]

Away from home [Nina]

[magichalcyon-blog]

Nina was blissfully oblivious to the predicament Kyosuke currently was in; which was to be described with the following, namely: teenage hormones, a cute girl and her chest. She was still too busy trying to discern whether she had enough money to buy the items she needed to even think of the following aforementioned. Then again considering her personality it might not even come to mind at all unless one were to literally shove the thought into her brain.

“ hey Kyosuke-kun, I’m really sorry about this”. She cuddled the Kyosuke plushie gently, patting it’s head. “ Don’t worry! I’ll find some way to get us out of this mess”.

Back at Nina’s dorm room, right after ravaging her grandfather’s closet for the needed items at hand, Kyosuke was at Nina’s lap, her magitech and a miniature treasure box resting atop both of her palms. “ Ok lesee…”. Blowing up one side of her cheek, Nina started tossing a few suspicious looking items into a small treasure box, then started tapping a few keys on her miniature pink magitech. “ …ar ar ear aeal flammabillis…practice!”.

A bright pink aura engulfed Nina, which was soon absorbed by her magitech. A few seconds later, a small orb which seemed to reflect the different colors of the rainbow emerged out of the miniature treasure box. “ Ok. Looks like this is it. Kyosuke-kun. Here!”. Nina held out the Kyosuke plushie right in front of her then threw the orb right into his/it’s face. Once the orb made contact with the plushie’s face, rainbow colored smoke erupted out of the orb, and voila…

“ Ah Kyosuke-kun looks like it was a success! You’re back to normal now”. The only problem at hand was being in another compromising situation because of well…Kyosuke was a plushie earlier being held by Nina and is now a human…so well, hooboy he’s right in top of her isn’t he? Yes.

“ I’m glad, otherwise I didn’t know what I might do”. And of course it’s just like Nina to not notice it unless someone points it out to her.

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Nina's words were barely heard by a troubled Kyosuke that was trying as hard as his mind allowed him not to focus on the sensation that embraced him right now and they weren't exactly reassuring since one thing had led to another so far and every development had proven to be and even less when he looked at a lot of random stuff that he had no idea how would they even help to let them out of the current situation.]

Are you sure this will work?...

[And his words received no response before she started doing her stuff and finally he could start seeing an aura enveloping her and the events unfolding one after the other and leading to an orb finally being rammed onto his still doll form and within seconds he looked back at his hands which were back to normal and Kyosuke was careless enough to stretch it forward and to add up to the already bad situation, the cleaning lady opened the door to the room and given the surprise, Kyosuke turned around out of reflex to watch a blushing maid who seemed as if she was reading a steamy novel since her face was red but couldn't take her eyes out of the scene and Kyosuke wondered why was her reaction like that when the soft sensation on his hand made him realize what kind of situation he was in and turned around slowly.

Kyosuke finally realized what kind of scene was this. Not only was him on his knees, basically straddling on Nina but he was now groping her breast, or at least touching it. The sudden realization of this made him almost fly back away from Nina and drop off the bed she was sitting at but made a back roll and then turned around to almost yell at the lady.]

THIS IS A MISUNDERSTANDING!

[However the lady now had a huge smirk on her face and slowly closed the door while Kyosuke tried to futilely struggle to yell to clear the misunderstanding.]

[lifecounselingoniisan]

Away from home [Nina]

[magichalcyon-blog]

” K-Kyosuke-kun, you shouldn’t move around so much. Seeing as how you’re a plushie right now you’re well…very fragile”. Nina plopped down on the bed, then started tapping some keys on her magitech. After awhile, a whizzing sound was heard. ” Ah there it is! Some of those beans, then a moonstone…”.

While all these was happening, Rio hopped onto the window, then scrunched up his eyebrows at the plushie that was moving around on Nina’s bed. ” hey. Do I even want to know what’s happening here?”. 

” Er. No?”. Nina laughed sheepishly, then turned to Kyosuke. ” Oh by the way, this is my pet Rio. As you can see, he’s not exactly…your average cat”. She coughed awkwardly, then went back to her magitech as the kitten, without question, waved a paw at Kyosuke. ” Yo”.

” ok, looks like I got all the necessary materials needed. Let’s go Kyosuke-kun!”. Nina scooped up the Kyosuke plushie, cuddling it in the same way one would to a teddy bear as she scrambled out the door. 

Once they were out of sight, the kitten smirked to himself. ” lucky guy”. 

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Kyosuke was jumping on the bed and then a cat appeared on the window for some reason the cat was talking and if he hadn't witnessed everything that had happened so far, he would have brushed it as a dream yet again. Now thinking about it, a witch having a cat as companion did sound like the image that people mostly had about witches so he could believe it now.]

Yeah, I can see that. Or more like hear that.

[Kyosuke waved back at the kitten and felt himself being pulled back toward something soft and then he became stiff. Even if his body was that of a plushie right now, he could feel the heat of the body behind him and where he was being held and before he could argue, they were out of the room so he had to stay still if he didn't want to startle people by moving around and even worse, yelling in his currently fluffy form.]

Thank goodness her partner was so nice… Fuyuka felt herself become a bit more relieved. She had been terrified that she would be paired a cruel, or cold husband, so Kyousuke’s kind attitude and words made her feel better about the situation. Even if she didn’t love him, at least they could get along as friends, right?

In that case, I’ll be under your care as well.

“All right! I’ll do my best!”

After all, wasn’t part of being a wife being there for the husband? Even if neither had entered this relationship willingly, she still felt as though she should perform her duty as a wife. Which meant giving support, care and friendship to her husband, all of which she felt she could do. In a way, being married was a bit like being a manager; taking care of someone as best you could. Thinking this, she began to feel more confident. Maybe she could do this!

Ohh, in that case I’ll gladly accept that offer.

“I’m glad,” She beamed at him, clasping her hands behind her back. “I’ll do my best to teach you well, then.”

At his next suggestion, her expression became thoughtful. Now that she thought about it, she was quite tired, and seeing their new living arrangement would put another tick on things she had to do. So, after a moment’s contemplation, she nodded.

“That’s a good idea. Shall we try and find it, then?”

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[It seemed that Kyosuke's effort had payed off since seeing Fuyuka being a bit more energetic was a relief to him as well. He wasn't sure what their future would be but if he was going to be forced to live with her, he might as well enjoy it and do whatever he can for her.]

Oh, I already know where it is. I was there before coming here but I didn't want to go inside since I was still having a lot of trouble accepting everything.

[Now he at least wasn't so against it since his spouse came out to be a really nice lady who seemed to be very caring as well.]

Well, shall we go?

[Kyosuke waited for a moment for her and then started walking towards the apartment they were supposed to be living. It was only around 10 minutes by foot and since it was only a couple of turns, he didn't get lost on the way back. Good thing he had noticed where he was going when he found his way into the park so it didn't end up being that much of a problem to find his way back.]

She smiled again at his words. She felt truly grateful to him, really; despite the fact he was going through the same awful situation as she was, he was willing to try and help her get through it. That meant a lot to her.

“Thank you,” She found she said those words quite a lot to Kyousuke, and that thought made her slightly embarrassed. “I-I’ll try my best to help you, too!”

She giggled slightly at his small joke. Luckily for him, Fuyuka was an excellent cook; having no mother to cook for she and her father whilst she was growing up, she had taken it upon herself to learn the skill as soon as she could. Her father was a good man who took such good care of her; she felt that she should at least be able to cook something nice for him to show how much she appreciated him.

“Don’t worry about the cooking,” She said with a small smile. “I’m a good cook, so I’ll handle that. But I could try and teach you, if you’d like?” He’d done his best to make her feel more comfortable with the situation, offering to teach him to cook was the very least she could do.

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Seeing Fuyuka smile made Kyosuke smile back as well. He felt that if he could help to at least get her to smile, that would be a victory to him in this place at least. Maybe he would find himself being able to smile frequently too if he kept up like this? Right now the main issue was perhaps to just focus on the day and worry about the rest little by little.]

“I-I’ll try my best to help you, too!”

In that case, I'll be under your care as well.

[He wanted to help her out rather than being helped but he knew it wasn't polite to refuse an offer to receive help back so instead he felt grateful to her as well. For now it seemed to him that trying to avoid meeting her wasn't really needed since it seemed now that they could get along well even if they were forced to live together like this.

To Kyosuke's surprise, she claimed to be a good cook so Kyosuke felt relieved that he wouldn't have to just go ahead and learn on his own and since she even offered to teach him how to cook, that was another offer he couldn't refuse and maybe being taught by her on this would help to get to know her better.]

Ohh, in that case I'll gladly accept that offer.

[After a brief pause, Kyosuke continued with a more warm tone now.]

So, I guess there's no real point in any of us avoiding going to that apartment so if you wish we can go there? You also seem like you could use a good rest.

[And then Kyosuke remembered that being the kind of cohabitation they were supposed to be going to be living in, there might be only one bed. If that's how it was, then he would have no problem in sleeping on the floor so she could have it for herself since even him wouldn't be able to sleep if he had a girl sleeping next to him, specially when they didn't know each other that well.]

Ohana smiled gratefully. “I’m glad you think so. I’m pretty skilled at talking, in case you didn’t notice!” She placed her hands on her hips. “Unfortunately, I’m not the best at listening.” She didn’t mind pointing out her flaws, they were obvious anyways.

“Oh!” Ohana said surprised, snapping to attention. She had almost forgotten that they were going to get something to eat. “Right!” She looked back and forth before entering. How exciting, her first meal in Civ. 9.

She felt giddy and enthusiastic, almost child-like. “There a lot more people here then I expected.” She sat down at the counter and greeted the people around her. Ohana was a big extrovert, so being around so many people made her unusually happy. She looked at Kyosuke with shining eyes. “Let’s order, shall we?”

[lifecounselingoniisan]

Oh, about that don't worry, I'm a pretty good listener.

[And he indeed was, life counseling wasn't something he could've achieved if he wasn't a good listener in any case.

Kyosuke felt somewhat refreshed by Ohana's energy. Even though she had obviously been crying before, right now she seemed to be enjoying herself so it was alright if she could keep smiling like this. As he was thinking this, Kyosuke caught himself smiling and felt a bit relieved about it himself. He hadn't had too many reasons to smile since coming to this place so this was of course a good change.

He followed after her and someone guided them to a table inside the restaurant. Once they were at a proper table, Kyosuke thanked the man who also handed them a pair of menus.]

Might I offer you and your wife something to drink?

Ah no, she's not my wife...

Is that so? My humblest apology then. Will you and the lady like to order something to drink then?

[Kyosuke then was reminded that this society ran in the arranged marriage system so it might not be uncommon at all that these marriages would come together everyday so he couldn't really blame the waiter for assuming that, specially since marriages in this place were assigned for people even a bit younger than them.]

Just orange juice for me.

[Kyosuke then looked at Ohana to see if she was going to order something as he held the menu without looking at it yet.]

[fu-yu-ppe-blog]

“Ah, yes… We all have quite a bit to think about, I suppose,” She agreed quietly, glancing away from him briefly, a slightly sad expression on her face. She still hadn’t quite come to terms with it all, to be honest; and wasn’t that to be expected? She was only sixteen, after all, and already faced so much pain in her short life. On top of that, this whole arranged marriage fiasco put even more pressure on her — on all of them.

“This whole situation… It doesn’t feel real, does it?”

To her, it felt more like a nightmare, and perhaps some part of her hoped it was just a bad dream, and that she’d wake up, tucked up in her own bed with her father downstairs.

Of course, she knew by now that was just wishful thinking.

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Kyosuke understood very well what she meant since anyone in their right mind would think this was some sort of joke at first and would hope it was just a dream or some well-elaborated joke but the reality was that things weren't as they wished for.]

Well, I think it'll be hard for us to get used to this place, but I hope I can help in any way I can.

[Kyosuke was always one to meddle into a friend's affairs to help if possible and unknowingly to him, this was something that earned him the affection of a lot of his friends, specially among the girls. He was pretty much an average guy, but his best trait was his willingness to help in any way he could and even if he wasn't yet convinced with this arranged marriage thing, he was willing to help Fuyuka to settle here, he could deal with his own problems later.]

Even though, since apparently we'll be living together I just have to say I don't know how to cook but I guess I can learn.

[He tried to lighten the mood a bit more with a small joke there. He could deal with some of the housework but he was definitely not good at cooking so it was best to point that out as soon as possible.]

[ohanass-deactivated20121021]

[ohanass-deactivated20121021]

Ohana burst out into a fit of giggles. His reaction was priceless. He got so flustered, it was better than she expected! Her shoulders shook with laughter. Poor guy. She didn’t mean to make him react so hilariously!

Patting him on the back, she wiped away some tears that sprung to her eyes from laughing so hard and she managed to choke out an apology. “S-sorry about that,” she said, trying to regain her composure. “I was only joking around.” She had a habit of trying to lighten the mood when things were getting too serious. “You’re easily embarrassed, huh?” She said, with an eyebrow raised and her grin as sly as before.

Afterwards, she turned around and kicked at a rock on the ground. “I was being serious though, about spending time with your wife and all.” It was a least a start that he didn’t dislike her. Now all they needed was all connection.

“It’s hard on everyone really.” She rubbed the back of her head, chuckling. “It’s nice to know you have someone there by your side…” She blinked upon realizing that she was talking excessively, then turned back to him. “Oh sorry about that.” She titled her head. “I’ no expert at love or anything! It’s just what I believe.”

[lifecounselingoniisan]

[Ohana's reaction made Kyosuke look somewhere else in embarrassment. If it would be normal circumstances, he would've surely retorted back at her apology but since she seemed a bit more relaxed now, he let it go and actually smiled in relief.]

“You’re easily embarrassed, huh?”

Well, I wasn't expecting that kind of comment...

[Truth was it, he was usually the one who enjoyed to tease girls with comments if they made them blush and react in a cute manner but when it was actually him the one being teased, he was quite weak to it. He enjoyed the fun of such friendships but he was rather afraid when things got serious like the time he asked teasingly to Kuronkeo if she liked him and she actually said yes. At first he was so shocked he almost fell backwards from his bed to the ground but after her following comment, he felt both relief and a bit of disappointment.

As they kept walking, he listened to Ohana's words with great attention and when she apologized, he shook his head and replied.]

It's alright. Sometimes talking helps out to lessen the load on your shoulders.

[Kyosuke knew that he might not be able to see all of his friends again but if Manami was here, he would definitely be dependent of her on this matters so he had to grow up and become able to do things on his own already and maybe even help others while at it. Kyosuke stopped suddenly while pointing to his left to a door.]

We've arrived.
