for Advance Chapter
"Oh no."
Yuu muttered as he watched Takuya and Mina's exchange from the bushes a short distance away. He was holding a smartphone in his hand, the lens of which was pointed towards Takuya and the others.
"If it had only been the first time, I might have been able to get away with it."
Mina had clearly initiated the first kiss, and it was clear that there was a wall behind her and she couldn't escape.
However, it was clearly Takuya who had initiated the second kiss, and after they had parted their mouths and looked at each other, they were now kissing for the third time.
"From the looks of it, it looks like you haven't seen Yui-chan in a while. I guess it's my fault... but even so, it was a good idea to make a video."
The reason for this was that it is easier to understand what happened with a video than with photos, and it is less likely to raise suspicions of fraud such as compositing. However, as things dragged on longer than expected, I am convinced that it was the right decision to make a video that could show everything.
"...I'll film the surroundings too."
I point my smartphone at the surrounding area to make it clear that this video was filmed on the day of the school festival.
"......"
Yu thinks as he watches Takuya and Mina kissing each other like lovers.
Mina is certainly cute. I don't know all the first-year girls, but I'd say Mina is probably the most beautiful out of the first-years. Though she's not on Yui's level, there are probably very few men who wouldn't be at least a little shaken by the temptation of such a beautiful girl. However, that doesn't mean that someone who is easily seduced by her would be disqualified as someone with a girlfriend.
It was fine that Yu was the only one watching this in the first place, but what would he have done if other students had been hiding and watching?
As I continued to gaze upon them with this thought in mind, their kiss became more passionate and intense.
"This might... I might go all the way to the end..."
The two of them had enough momentum to think that way.
Confessions at the after-party itself are not uncommon. A campfire is held on the school grounds, and apart from the student council setting up a snack stall, students are free to choose whether or not to participate, where they are, and with whom.
The light of the large flame illuminating the dark night is romantic, and it is not surprising that the flames of love burn after the cultural festival, which created a sense of solidarity.
Some brave souls even make public confessions around the campfire. This is especially common among third-year students, who, once this is over, have only one school event left - their big day - the graduation ceremony.
Yuu could understand the desire to take advantage of this atmosphere. However, a confession that was successful because of that "something" is difficult to maintain even after that "something" is gone. Even if that wasn't the case, it is extremely difficult for the person being confessed to to refuse, such as in a public confession. For this reason, it is not uncommon for people to only pretend to accept in front of everyone, only to be rejected immediately behind closed doors.
Considering that, Takuya and Mina were doing rather well... if only the man hadn't had a girlfriend.
"I guess it's about time."
We've already taken more than enough photos to scare Takuya. From here on out, it's up to the two of us to enjoy.
"I didn't tell Asakura-san the truth, but he still helped me, so I'm saying this as a token of my appreciation. From now on, I'll give you some time alone with Takuya."
If this video were to be made public, it would not only be a problem for Takuya and Yui. Naturally, Mina, who appears in the video, would also be the center of attention. If that were to happen, and the video showed more than just kissing, it would be best if she ended up skipping school. If things go wrong, it could lead to bullying or even suicide.
That's not what Yuu wants.
Having finished what he had to do, Yu stops recording on his smartphone and leaves the scene. Now, even if the two of them do the "real thing," there will be no one to spy on them.
"Well then, Takuya, take your time. I'm going to meet Yui now."
Yuu made a detour to a certain place as he headed towards the place where he was supposed to meet Yui.
--Near the rooftop entrance.
"Sorry, Yui-chan. I'm late."
"Ah, Yu-kun. No, I just got here too."
When Yui was called, she smiled knowing that the person she was waiting for had arrived.
"But Yu-kun, are you sure it's okay?"
"It's okay. Even the teachers are all excited."
It's not just the students who get excited about the after-party. The teachers are human too. They're swept up in the atmosphere, remembering their own school days, and things aren't going as usual.
Yu took advantage of the opportunity to borrow the key to open the door to the roof from the staff room.
"At first I thought of the classroom, but some people confess in secret in places like that."
If they were going to be alone together today, they decided that the rooftop would be the best place. Especially here, they wouldn't have to worry about arousing suspicion if they locked the door after going out onto the roof.
Also, the angle of the usual empty classrooms makes it impossible to see the campfire.
"Come on, Yui-chan. Let's go."
After unlocking the door, Yu and Yui hold hands and go out to the roof together.
Since it was my first time going up to the roof, I looked around the surroundings.
When this school was first built, it was likely that the rooftop would be open to the public, as there are fences to prevent people from falling and several benches nearby to allow for a good view of the scenery. However, as it has been left abandoned for many years, it is too dirty to sit on.
However, that was something I had expected when I decided to spend the after-party here.
"Even though there's a bench, it's dirty."
"That's what I thought, you see."
He took out a small picnic sheet from his pocket and laid it on the bench.
"But Yu-kun, only one person can sit like this."
Because portability was emphasized, larger sizes could not be brought, so only Yu or Yui could sit on it.
"Okay, don't worry about me. I'll either stand or just sit on the bench."
It's not that he doesn't mind, but it's better than making Yui sit there with her bare skin underneath her skirt.
"Hmmm..."
Yui thinks, looking back and forth between Yu and the bench.
"Hey, Yu-kun. Sit a little deeper."
"?"
I didn't understand her intentions, but Yui let go of my hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay," and pushed me back, so I sat down on the bench.
"A little deeper... hmm, right. I think that's about right. Yu-kun, isn't that position uncomfortable? Are you sure you're not going to fall over?"
"Yeah, I'm fine."
This bench is wider than normal. It was probably intended for students to eat their lunch here. It is wider so that it is easier to place your lunch box.
"Well, then, spread your legs a bit.... excuse me, Yu-kun."
Yui sat down, fitting perfectly between Yu's spread legs. Yui in front, Yu behind her.
It's true that this is a little larger than one person's seat, but two people can still sit on the picnic sheet.
"Hehe... I'm happy to feel closer to you, Yu-kun, but this is a bit embarrassing."
"I haven't done it recently, but I used to do this for Airi until recently," Yui said blushing.
In front of Yuu is his beloved Yui, sitting with her back to him.
The warmth of her body, her soft, feminine skin, her cute, gentle voice, and the pleasant scent of her beautiful, shiny hair all come through.
Feeling Yui with all five senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, excluding taste) naturally makes your heart beat faster.
Even though they've had sex many times and their skin has touched, the excitement of a moment like this is something else entirely. Yuu can't help but feel so loved by Yui that he wraps his arms around her slim waist and holds her tight.
"ah..."
Yui lets out a happy voice.
The woman I love is in my arms, and she seems happy that I'm holding her. Could anything be more satisfying?
"I'm embarrassed too... but Yui-chan smells nice, so I don't mind."
"Don't you hate it?"
"Sorry, sorry, I'm actually really happy. I can feel Yui-chan with my whole body."
"Yuu, you're so naughty."
Even though she said that, Yui's tone of voice sounded happy, far from being displeased.
"...The campfire is beautiful."
The light seen after the sun goes down is beautiful. There are many things like night views and fireworks, but among them, campfires are the most beautiful because of their pure flames, and you can feel the warmth even from a distance.
The flickering light of the flames is soothing to the soul when you just stare blankly at it.
"I agree..."
A happy and peaceful time spent together, just the two of you.
What interrupted what felt like a few minutes or even a few tens of minutes was a high-pitched voice coming from near the campfire.
"Oh... it looks like someone is going to confess."
I turned my eyes towards the source of the voice and saw a male student coming forward with a female student a few steps behind him.
"That kind of thing is good."
"Yui-chan, do you like that kind of confession?"
"Because it's romantic and wonderful... But if someone were to confess their feelings to me, I'd prefer it to be just the two of us, in a quiet place with a nice view. It's better to keep something important like this a secret between just the two of us."
"For example... like now?"
"Huh?"
Yui was confused for a moment by Yu's unexpected reply, but when she realized what he meant, she turned her head to the side with an expectant look on her face and met Yu's gaze.
On the rooftop, only Yu and Yui are present; a campfire can be seen in the distance, and if you look up a little you can see the night view with the twinkling lights of houses and shops, and all that can be heard is the faint cheers of the students gathered on the playground.
Apparently the confession was successful.
"...I love you, Yui-chan. I still can't answer what you said yesterday about wanting to go out with me, but my feelings of love are genuine. I've been devoted to you ever since, for years and years."
"...Thanks, Yu-kun. I like you too... I really like you. I've been feeling that way really strongly lately."
Yui is embarrassed.
You can tell that from the tone of his voice.
As an actress, Yui has always spoken embarrassing lines earnestly and seriously in front of a large number of staff members, but now she feels embarrassed. And because of this, it is clear that her words are her true feelings.
"Mm, I'm happy, Yui-chan."
Almost at the same time, they both stretch out their necks and their lips gently touch.
Compared to the kiss Takuya and Mina had shared a while ago, this was a gentle, childlike kiss, with their mouths simply touching, but for the two of them, whose hearts were so tightly connected, it was enough.
Now is the time to whisper words of love, not to vent your sexual desires.
"Yu-kun..."
"Yui-chan..."
There's no meaning to it, we just call each other's names as if searching for our beloved and confirming their existence.
Compared to the long two-day cultural festival, the after-party lasted less than a few hours, but the two still spent a fulfilling and happy time together.
