Mami was instructed to run away, to physically distance herself. After parting ways with Sho, she met up with Madoka and the others. They had all gathered in Mami's small apartment. It was a one-person place, so five of them felt cramped, but none of them felt like going back to school now. Besides, in this room, they could have all the tea Mami could brew.
"I'm not sure if I can make enough to call it all-you-can-drink," Mami said with a wry smile, preparing tea for everyone. She also set out some cake.
"Your place always has enough cake for everyone. How do you do it?" Kyoko asked, already poking at her slice with a fork.
Kyoko actually lived next door to Mami. The fact that these two, who seemed so different, were close was largely because of this.
"I just happened to buy some," Mami replied.
"But that's a pretty big coincidence, isn't it?" Madoka said. They had been to Mami's apartment a few times before, but it wasn't a regular thing. Every single time, there had been a perfect cake set ready for them. The odds of that happening by chance seemed astronomical.
"Still, skipping school to do something like this feels so strange," Madoka said.
"Yeah, it feels like we're doing something really bad," Homura added.
"Come on, Homura and Madoka, you two need to get used to it! We got a much bigger scoop out of this!" Sayaka said, trying to cheer up the two still moping girls.
After everyone had a sip of their tea, Sayaka burst out.
"But seriously, what's with him just straight up admitting he's cheating?!"
"I kinda liked it. It's way better than making a bunch of excuses," Kyoko countered.
"He wasn't admitting it, he was just brazenly owning it!" Sayaka was the most fired up, with Kyoko as her sparring partner. Their opinions were completely at odds, but the intensity of their debate was very different. This was mostly because Kyoko didn't have much of a problem with Sho to begin with.
As Kyoko calmly deflected Sayaka's fury, Madoka turned to Mami.
"What about you, Mami-san? What did you think after talking to him?"
"Huh? Oh, um..." Mami had been the one to actually meet and talk to him, even if it was under Sayaka's direction. Her experience must hold more than words alone could convey. After a moment of thought, Mami said, "Honestly, we didn't talk that much..."
"Oh, right..." Madoka's voice trailed off. Sho's frankness had unexpectedly cut their conversation short, and they had left much earlier than planned. They couldn't really blame Mami.
"...But, he didn't seem like a bad person," Mami continued. "I think he was sincere."
"Sincere?"
"Yes. What he said was so shocking it was scary, but I think the reason it felt scary was because he was so serious about the people he was talking about. So, in that sense, he was really genuine... I'm sorry, I'm not very good at putting it into words."
Mami felt that Sho was not a bad person. At the very least, he didn't seem like the kind of guy who would use girls to satisfy his own desires. Despite the shocking truth she had heard, Mami didn't feel any ill will toward Sho.
"Oh no, Mami-san has fallen for that man's poisonous fangs too..." Sayaka muttered, looking dejected.
"Poisonous fangs? Sayaka-chan, come on..." Mami sighed.
"No, think about it rationally! No matter how serious and sincere he is, it's wrong to go against modern ethics! Our friend—Yukina—might be involved with someone like that!" Sayaka exclaimed.
"That's... you're right," Madoka agreed with a serious expression. After all, someone who proudly declares they are dating multiple women is not sincere or genuine—they're a lunatic. You can't be fooled, Sayaka insisted.
"Sincere, huh? Then why don't we test his sincerity directly?" Homura asked cautiously, a fork in her mouth.
"What do you mean by that, specifically?"
"I mean, we should make him act. From what we've heard, he's a real womanizer, right? A guy like that wouldn't pass up an opportunity."
"What are you talking about, Kyoko?"
"Calm down, Sayaka," Kyoko said, continuing with a mischievous glint in her eye. "We'll put him in a situation where he'll be tempted to make a move and see if he actually does. If he's serious and truly cares about Yukina, he won't give in to temptation, right?"
It was a terrifying plan—a classic honey trap.
"I see... that might make me feel a little better, but..." Mami said, but then stopped herself.
"Wait, wait, wait a minute. You mean you want to bring him here, to this room?" Mami asked.
"Something like that, yeah?" Kyoko replied.
"That's a bit much..." Mami made a face. Bringing him to her room would mean he'd know her address. Even if he was a friend of a friend, she was hesitant to let a near-stranger into her home.
"Yeah, I agree... letting him into my own room is too much," Sayaka, who had been all for it, couldn't get behind Kyoko's idea either.
"Really? Then my room is fine," Kyoko said, pointing her thumb at the wall. Her room was just on the other side.
"That's no good either!" Mami flatly refused.
"Huh? Then what about a karaoke bar or something? It'd be hard to find a reason to ask him though."
"That's not it! I won't allow a plan to tempt him like that, no matter who it is! It's too dangerous if something happens!" As their senior, Mami was adamant.
"I'll be fine. If he tries anything, I'll just kick him away," Kyoko said with a laugh, tossing another piece of cake into her mouth. Whether Kyoko could actually do it or not was debatable, but she certainly wouldn't hesitate to try.
"For now, we should just ask Yukina about this, right?" Sayaka said.
"Yes. At the very least, that's a better idea than Kyoko's," Mami agreed. With that, the discussion about Sho came to an end.
---------
I was pulled into an alleyway, where I came face to face with Kurumi.
"So, Kurumi. Why are you here? Did something happen to Lala?" I asked. I was told to rest while she took care of Lala, so why was she here, and why had she so forcefully pulled me into an alley? Was it an emergency?
"No, it's not. I'm taking good care of Lala-san," Kurumi replied.
"You... you're a clone, aren't you? No, you're the main body, aren't you?"
"Tee-hee, you're so smart, Sho-san," she said.
So if that's the case...
"Then what is it?" I was genuinely confused. What did she want with me?
"How can you say that? Do I need a reason to come and see you, Sho-san? I just wanted to walk home with you..." Kurumi said, feigning tears.
"If that were true, you'd have come yourself, not sent a clone." There was no reason to send a clone if she was just here to hang out.
"That's also true, isn't it?" Kurumi immediately stopped crying. Not a single tear had fallen. She was just playing around.
"Alright, so why are you really here?"
"I shouldn't say 'here.' I've been with you this whole time," she said.
"Huh?" I was confused, but then a possibility dawned on me. "You've been hiding in my shadow?"
"That's right."
"Why would you do that?"
"For emergencies. I'm responsible for the princess on your behalf, Sho-san. It's only natural that I would be prepared for anything, don't you think?"
"I guess so." Lala might be a bit naive, but she's still royalty, and she's been a target of kidnapping before. It made sense to have a way to contact me, her main bodyguard. If anyone was being careless, it was me for not thinking of it.
"Not at all. You have so many jobs on your plate, Sho-san. It's only right that I would think of something like this for you," Kurumi said, smiling gently. It was such a kind smile. The evil one she showed me from time to time seemed like a phantom.
Then, I realized something. "Hey, Kurumi."
"What is it?"
"Why didn't you tell me? That you'd be hiding a clone in my shadow for emergencies? An emergency communication method is useless if I don't know it's there." That was too simple of a thing for Kurumi to forget.
"That's..."
"That's?"
Kurumi took a step closer to me.
"Because there was another reason."
"Another one?" Kurumi had closed the distance between us in an instant. Her face was so close I felt a slight jolt of surprise. Even though I knew this wasn't that kind of situation, being stared at by her mismatched eyes made me nervous. I tried to take a step back, but my back was already against the wall.
"Yes. A very important mission: to keep an eye on you, Sho-san," she said.
"Keep an eye on me?" That was an unexpected reason. I hadn't done anything that would require surveillance.
"Oh my, it seems you don't understand what you've been doing at all," she said.
"What do you mean?"
"You've been getting to know women and sleeping with them everywhere you go. As your lover, isn't it only natural that I would be curious about what kind of life you're leading?"
"Well, I guess..."
"So, I thought I would secretly investigate what kind of life you live. My main body, that is," Kurumi said. "And I was all for it."
"I've been watching every single moment of your life since Lala-san arrived."
"Every single moment?"
"Yes, every single one. You seem to be having a lot of fun at school, don't you?"
"Oh... right." I thought back over the past week or so.
"You took your junior, Kirin-san, home, only to do it at her house, didn't you?"
"Ugh."
"The next day, you even did it with Mere-san at school."
"Ohh."
"And after you became an engagement candidate, you started sleeping in the same room as Lala-san and even saw her getting out of the shower... Is it only a matter of time before you 'do it' with Lala-san?"
"Ugh, ugh..." She had really seen everything. As for "doing it" with Lala, there were no plans for that, but everything else she said was the truth. Cornered by the facts, I looked away.
But then, "Don't look away from me." Kurumi grabbed my face with her hands, forcing me to look at her.
And then, she kissed me. "Mmm."
"Mmmph!?" It was just a light touch of the lips, but it was clearly not an accident. It was a purposeful kiss.
"Y-you..."
"I've been silently watching the person I love have sex with other women. Surely I'm allowed to do this much?" she said.
"Well, I guess, but that's not the point..."
"Oh, my... You get like this from just a kiss, Sho-san, you really are..." Kurumi noticed and let out a little chuckle.
"I can't help it," I said, looking down at my pants. The light kiss had been enough to make me hard. I had been praised for having the willpower to not do anything with Lala, despite her being so close all the time. But that just meant I was "saving it up," and now I couldn't help it.
"Yes, yes, I know. Being with Lala-san all the time would make anyone like this. You've been so good to endure it. You could easily have sweet-talked the innocent Princess Lala into anything you wanted."
"If I did that, it would be a straight shot to marriage. Sleeping in the same room is one thing, but if it goes any further than that, it's over."
"That's right. If you were to go to Deviluke, you'd be separated from all of us. So, what will you do? Can you go home like this?"
"I-I'm going to go home, of course..." What else was I supposed to do? It would go down in a bit if I just waited quietly. But then it hit me.
"Yes. If you'd like, I can help you calm down," she said.
"Here?"
"Hardly anyone comes here, and you have the ability to erase your presence while 'doing it,' right? ...I do have some shame, so I'd prefer you to only use your hands and mouth here, if you don't mind..." she whispered seductively in my ear. The thought of not getting caught was enough to break down the wall of my rationality.
"Then..."
"Heh. Understood. Then, if you'll excuse me..." Kurumi knelt down and unzipped my pants.
"Eek! M-my, what a magnificent..." My penis, now fully erect, was right in front of her nose. Kurumi tentatively reached out her hand.
"I don't have much experience with this, so please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong."
"Agh...!" My penis was pulsating, as if to say, "Don't mind the preamble, just touch me!" and I felt the same way. Kurumi's nose moved, and I was swallowed by something wet and slimy.
"Ugh..."
"Oh, my..." She slowly took me into her mouth. It was a different sensation from having sex. It wasn't the feeling of flesh parting, but rather her tongue licking all the way up and down the frenulum. When my penis was halfway in, she stopped. She probably couldn't go any further because of how deep it was. She started to move in reverse, slowly pulling out. When she reached the head, she gripped my penis with her hand and pulled her mouth away.
"Is that okay, Sho-san?"
"Yes... please keep going," I said.
"Yes." She swallowed my penis once more. Just like before, she moved in slowly and out slowly. She seemed to be trying to be gentle and polite, but it wasn't enough stimulation for me. Well, it was enough stimulation for me, but since we were in a public place, I wanted to finish as quickly as possible. I was tempted to start moving myself out of frustration.
"What are you doing? Are you trying to move your hips yourself? I'll do it for you, so just stay still, Sho-san."
"Yeah, I know, but you know... given the location..."
"Is that so? But I heard you did it with Alter-san outside before? And I heard you were the one who initiated it?"
"That's..." As she spoke, Kurumi's hand didn't stop. But it was so slow and leisurely, it was frustrating.
"I see, it's quite fun to have the upper hand..." she muttered.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing. I understand. In that case..."
"Ugh...!" She started to massage my testicles, the place where semen is made. Was she trying to break up the thick fluid to get more out? She also started to switch from her hand to her mouth, not moving slowly like before, but rhythmically, squeezing with her lips.
"Are you... are you really a beginner?!" I asked, and Kurumi pouted, pulling her mouth away. She switched back to her hand.
"That's so mean. Do you really think I would let anyone else touch me but you, Sho-san?"
"I-I get it, I get it, now please...!"
"Mmmph." She swallowed half of my penis again. At that moment, I let go.
"Ugh! Damn it...!" I shot my load deep into Kurumi's throat.
Splurt! Splooosh, bluuuuuuurgh, pshooo!
"Mmmph! Mmm..." Kurumi's eyes widened the moment I came, but she didn't pull her mouth away. Instead, she swallowed everything that came out. Her hand massaged my testicles to encourage more to come out, and my twitching shaft was handled gently by her lips. Even the semen caught halfway up was gently squeezed out.
Finally, Kurumi released me.
"That was a lot... It makes my heart race just to think you fill me up like this every time we do it," Kurumi said with a dreamy look on her face, having swallowed everything. With one release, my penis had calmed down.
"Well then, shall we go home?" she asked.
"Yeah, I guess so... You're going back into my shadow, aren't you?"
"Yes, I don't have any other clothes." It was true, walking around in her Spirit Dress would draw a lot of attention.
"Well then, Sho-san. Until we meet again," she said, before disappearing into my shadow.
"Right, I should go home too..." I thought as I stepped out of the alley.
