"Your classmate?"

"Yeah, he fought down that villain and beat him!... but he had to give the fame to the sixth year senpai who he saved."

Koka was inside an expensive looking violet car with her mother on the driver's seat.

She was wearing her school uniform while her mother wore a black office skirt.

"He was so cool too! He risked his life even though he's facing against a B class villain! A B class villain, mom!", she told her with excitement.

"...although, he....almost... got... killed doing it.", Koka said with a sad tone.

"...but it's alright now, right? He still defeated the villain like a superhero.", her mother told her while patting her head.

"Mooom! I'm not a kid anymore! You don't need to rub my head...", Koka told her, feeling slightly annoyed.

"Well, Koka... It looks like this guy who saved you seems to be a really amazing person. You should do your best to conquer his heart.", she said with a smile while still patting her head.

"M-M-M-MOM! W-W-WHAT... NO! IT'S NOT LIKE I LIKE HIM OR... ANYTHING! I just... umm...", Koka who was suddenly agitated told her mom with a loud voice before lowering it.

"Calm down, Koka. I think that classmate of yours is a really great guy. You should introduce him to me one day.", she replied with a gentle smile.

"I-I-I... M-mom! W-we're here! Stop the car!"

"Koka, don't be so embarassed..."

"S-stop it!"

Koka's mom had to stop car because of Koka's sudden agitation.

She then opened the door and quickly ran to the school's entryway.

"Haaah, that girl's starting to like a boy...but it's really hard for her to be honest about herself.", she said as she slowly drove the car again.

"Hmmm...?", she then noticed Koka standing just by the entrance as if waiting for someone.

"She's working hard.", she said with a smile and drove off.

______________________________________

"Haaaaaaahhh..", Akira yawned as he walked to the subway.

"You sure are really sleepy today, bro. Something got you up at night?", asked Akio.

Akira and Akio were both in their uniforms as they got in the train together.

"Well..."

'I still haven't told him all about that weird ability I gained yesterday...I've been trying to use it again for a while but it takes a lot of energy...'

"H-hello! I'm Mia, I just saw you guys and my friend asked me to get your number!", a plain looking highschool girl with black long hair called on Akio.

"Uh, well...sorry, but I got a girlfriend...", Akio felt a little shaken as a random highschooler came to ask for his number.

'Damn, Akio. He's always getting girls to ask for his name and number even if he already has a girlfriend. Wish I was attractive like him... Girls would never flock on me like that.', Akira thought.

'Somehow I feel like someone around me's being a big idiot right now.', thought Akio.

______________________________________

"Good morning, Akio! Good morning, Akira-nii!", greeted Ana.

"Good morning, Ana."

"Morning."

They greeted back.

Koka, hearing them, turned around and wanted to greet Akira as well... when she noticed...

Megumi was hiding and waiting in between the buildings beside the school road.

"Akira!", Megumi said as she ran towards Akira and the second year couple.

"Good morning, Megumi-chan. You just got here, as well?", Ana greeted and asked her.

"Yeah, I was just running towards here actually because I thought I'd be late.", replied Megumi.

"Good morning, Akira!", she said as she greeted him with a big smile.

"Y-yeah, sure, morning.", Akira seems a bit shaken after being greeted by her.

"You seem kind of nervous, Akira-nii. Is something wrong?", Ana asked him.

"Actually, it's about what happened last weekend, right-", said Akio.

Ana showed a slightly devious grin as she heard that.

"...about when we caught you two together and she was sitting on your-"

Akira immediately tried to block Akio's mouth with his hand from his back when suddenly...

*BAM*

"GUHA!", Ana elbowed Akio's stomach with a serious expression.

"W-what was that for...?", Akio asked Ana as he limped on the floor.

"You should learn when to stop talking, alright...Akio?", she said with a cold smile.

"Uhh..alright...", he accepted with a slightly nervous face.

Akira and Megumi were already walking ahead as Akio and Ana were chatting.

"You stayed up playing games again?"

"I'm not like Keima, woman."

'Are those two really that close?', thought Koka as she saw them walk and chat together.

I've been noticing it for long now but...

'I have to do my best!', thought Koka.

"G-good morning, Akira!", Koka then came from the entryway and ran up to Akira.

Megumi showed a slightly irritated expression seeing this.

"Yo, morning. You waiting in the entryway again, huh?"

"Y-yeah."

"You should learn the wonders of sitting in an air conditioned classroom for once. You don't need to wait for me everytime I go to school. I told you I'm just a nosy piece of shit that's good at nothing but butting in other people's businesses-"

""YOU'RE WRONG!"", both Koka and Megumi, suddenly screamed at him.

Akira's eyes widen as the two both suddenly screamed at him.

Both of them had an angry expression in their eyes as if Akira said something really bad.

Megumi and Koka then took a look at each other with widened eyes and then fixed themselves up.

"Good morning, Koka, by the way!"

"Good morning to you too, Megumi!"

They both smiled at each other but somehow an intimidating aura came from the both of them.

'What's up with them?', Akira feeling a bit confused thought to himself.

______________________________________

"Self study?", Avaron couldn't help but voice her complains upon hearing what Sir Knight just said.

"Yes, self study. You'll be doing this a lot for this week so you won't have to worry about this class for now.", Sir Knight explained.

"...but... Savior University is supposed to be a prestigious school known for it's excellence in molding students into the best saviors or supports out there! I can't believe you'd let a day pass without teaching us anything!"

"...The truth is, me and the other teachers will be attending a few meetings this week and your highnesses will be given a chance to rest easy for a while. Besides, this might be the perfect time to study for the quiz we have next week.,"

Sir Knight then took his books, and walked to the exit.

"So long, your highnesses!"

He then started running away.

The other students, besides Avaron and Kazuki seemed to show relief in their faces.

'It's pretty obvious that'll happen... since there was the incident about that villain.', thought Akira.

"Yo, Keima. Let's play Dungeon Warriors while teach is out."

"Sure, just don't weigh me down."

"Who the hell do you think you're talking to?", Akira replied with a confident expression.

Akira and Keima both brought out their PSPs and started playing.

Koka, Megumi and Ai, were seated behind Akira chatting with each other, when they suddenly noticed Eiko walking up to Akira.

"Hey, Akira, Nakamura-kun, can I join in?", she asked while holding a PSP.

"Sure thing."

"Do what you want."

Both of them accepted and started playing.

Eiko sat on the floor next to Akira's seat with her PSP and played too.

They seemed to be having a lot of fun playing while Koka and the others seemed a little bit irritated by this.

'Akira...',thought Koka while looking at Akira with a sad expression.

I just showed a blind eye on it...

______________________________________

"Akira-sama, here's an ointment my mom gave me. This would help patch up your injuries quicker.", Ai said approaching Akira with some sort of balm on her hands.

Akira took the balm and showed her a a slight smile.

"Thank you, love girl."

She blushed as she heard Akira thank her.

"Ehehehe~"

Koka and Megumi were about to have their lunch with Ai when she suddenly ran back to give Akira that ointment.

...but it's not like I can keep running away from the truth...

______________________________________

'First there's Megumi and Ai. Then there's Eiko. Why do a lot of girls flock around him... Well, he's a great person...but...', Koka thought.

That Akira has a close relationship too many girls.

It was still self study up to their last class so most of them are just chatting their way with others.

Akira was playing dungeon warriors with Keima. Ai and Megumi were chatting with each other and Eiko was also busy conversing with Mitsuko and Hana.

'Isn't this the perfect chance?', thought Koka.

'There's no one else approaching Akira.'

Kami, who was chatting with Takumi, seeing Akira and Keima play with their PSPs, decided to walk up to them.

Koka stood up and walked up to Akira too.

"A-Akira-"

"Oh hey."

Koka approached Akira, when suddenly Kami walked behind her and touched her shoulder.

"NNN!"

Koka who was trembling, suddenly fell down on the floor due to fear and looked at Kami as if he was terrifying.

She had slight fear and tears in her eyes as she trembled.

Some of their classmates saw this and became a little worried.

"K-Kokachi?"

"Kawai-san?"

"Nagai-san, what did you do to her...?"

"Koka, are you alright?"

Ai, Mitsuko, Avaron and Megumi all came near Koka worrying about her.

Kami's eyes widen seeing this, and showed an expression of guilt although he hasn't done anything wrong.

Koka was still trembling with fear as she tried avoiding eye contact with Kami.

'...She still can't get her mind off that incident, huh.', thought Akira, with a serious expression.

"Oh, I think she's just a little sick.", Akira said trying to relieve them.

"Sick?", asked Avaron.

"Akira...", Megumi called out his name with a confused expression.

"Yo, weaken girl, let's get you something to calm you down."

Akira stood up from his seat and asked her to join him.

"Y-yeah..."

She was still trembling a little as she slowly stood up to follow Akira.

The two left the classroom with their classmates in complex moods.

"Kami, sexually harassing girls isn't manly.", Takumi teased him with a deadpan expression.

"I-I just touched her shoulder. I only came here to ask Akira and Keima what they're playing. When I saw her suddenly walk in front of me, I just reflexively touched her shoulder to not bump into her, man. Besides, I got a girlfriend."

"That's lame, Kami, you sexual deviant.", Ken with a big smile teased Kami.

Avaron was showing him a slightly annoyed look as well.

Megumi and Ai just showed a worried expression.

"Is Kokachi okay?", asked Ai.

"I don't know...but if it's Akira, I'm sure he'll help her.", replied Megumi

'I know it's just to help her but still...'

Megumi then showed a pouting expression.

'I wish Akira would go out of his way to comfort me as well.'

______________________________________

"Here, some water.", Akira and Koka stood next to a vending machine as he gave her a water bottle.

"This might fix you up."

Koka, who seemed to still be trembling, with both of hands, she took the water bottle from Akira's.

She has a slightly blushing face but her hands were still shaking..

Akira couldn't help but feel a little worried.

'I don't really know what to do with her. I've never met a classmate who had this kind of trauma with her before... I guess she still remembers that event, huh?', Akira thought.

She took a sip of the water bottle with both her hands, when suddenly...

"Don't be so scared, ok?"

Akira patted her head as he said that.

*PPPWWWTT!*

Koka suddenly spilled the water from her mouth when she heard his words.

She then blushed and stopped trembling.

'...That...took me by surprise...'

Koka looked at her hands and noticed she wasn't trembling anymore.

She then turned her blushing face that was looking down on her hand towards Akira...

...who was trying to scrape the water off his face with his hands.

He had a straight face and seemed slightly annoyed with water on his clothes and hair.

"I know you got stuff going on with you, but you didn't have to spit water on me.", Akira said with an incredulous expression.

"S-sorry! I'll t-take care of it!", Koka then put her hand in her skirt pocket and pulled out a cute looking hankerchief with a cute anime cat design.

She then touched Akira's cheek and used her other hand to wipe his face with the hankerchief.

"W-wait! I could do it myself, just let me borrow your-"

"N-no! L-let me do it!"

Koka who seemed a bit nervous was wiping Akira's face who seemed to look nervous as well.

'What's going on with me?', Koka thought.

Koka focused on Akira's face as she kept wiping it.

"H-hey. My face is dry enough. You can stop."

'Touching him makes me feel so...'

"Weaken girl. Y-yo...?"

Koka's face suddenly turned into a mesmerized expression as she wiped his face.

'W-what's going on with this chick? Why's she suddenly looking at me all hypnotized like that?'

*flick*

"Iya!"

Akira suddenly flicked his index finger on Koka's forehead.

"I told you my face is dry enough. You should rest easy for a while and calm down so you'll stop trembling. If it's okay with you, maybe we should tell our classmates about your fear of men."

"Uh...yeah...", Koka said while holding her forehead and showing a slight smile on her face.

'Oh, she stopped trembling... Guess spitting on me worked wonders.', thought Akira, noticing she's not trembling anymore.

"You alright now?", asked Akira.

"Yeah!", she replied with her cheeks blushing and her lips showing a gentle smile.

'Cute...'

"Let's go back to class then.", Akira said as he put his hands in his pockets.

'My uniform's still wet though, guess I'd just let it be since we're about to finish our last class's period for today.'

"W-wait!", Koka then called Akira as he was planning to head back to class.

"Hm?...What is it?"

"...ummm...uhh..."

'... I want to... talk to you some more...'

"Ummm...are you free this Saturday?", Koka asked with a hopeful expression.

Akira then turned around to face Koka.

"Yeah, I am. Wanna treat me the meal you promised me?", Akira asked with a deviant grin.

"Y-y-yeah!"

'I actually forgot about that...but he seems to be looking forward to it so...', thought Koka.

"Then let's meet this Saturday. You can set the time and place, tell me tomorrow where you want us to meet."

"W-well..."

"I'm definitely going. No matter what happens.", Akira replied with a slight smile that made Koka blush.

At that time, I was still a bit confused...

______________________________________

"Clothes?"

"Y-yeah. Do you have any cute clothes I could borrow, Aichi?", Koka asked Ai on the phone as she laid down on hee bed.

Koka was wearing her violet kitten hoodie pajamas as she lied down on her large bed calling Ai on the phone.

"I'd like to let you borrow my clothes, but it probably wouldn't fit you...because of my height...", Ai soundly slightly sad in that last line.

"Ummm... Thank you anyways, Aichi"

Koka hung up then sighed.

'I'm just gonna have to ask mom then... although it's so embarassing.'

She then put her hands up before her face while lying down, covering the light above.

["Don't be so scared, ok?"]

["I told you I'm just a nosy piece of shit that's good at nothing but butting in other people's businesses-"]

["You should rest easy and hang out with your buddies for now. You don't have to burden yourself just to thank me."]

["At your service, ma'am."]

["I just wanted to try to actually become a hero once. That was just me being selfish there."]

'Akira...'

She then imagined the face of the boy who saved him.

She could never forget that scene, that scene where all of her worries, all of her fear, all of the pain she's been carrying, were all erased with a single line.

["Everything's gonna be ok."]

She had a blushed, mesmerized face as she reminsced his face and words that day.

'I don't understand... why I feel like this...but... I want to see him. I want to touch him... I want to hear his voice.'

She then sat up and made a gallant look on her face.

'Time to ask mom...'

______________________________________

"I'm home...", Akira said as he walked in his house.

'Oh yeah... Akio's out. That fucker's probably out on a date with his girlfriend again. Wish I could go on one someday.', thought Akira.

Akira then went to the living room.

'Why's the TV on...?'

"RRAAAAAA-CCCHHHAAAANN! WELLCOMMEE HOOOMMEE!"

Akiko suddenly ran out wearing casual clothes and an apron planning to hug Akira.

*Pak*

Akira's palm stopped her head before she got close.

"I forgot you're supposed to take a longer vacation today... And stop trying to hug me everytime you see me, mom!"

"Oh come on! Let's have some mother and son love!"

Akira looked kind of creeped out when he heard that.

"Stop saying that, people might misunderstand."

"Uhhhhh.... My Ra-chan really is in his rebellious phase!", she said as she backed away a little.

Akira just stared at her with an incredulous expression.

"By the way, I'm going to hang out with a friend of mine this saturday. So don't just cry and wonder why I'm not here that day."

"Is it a boy or a girl?"

"It's a girl."

"It's a date then!"

"No, it's not."

Akira who was looking a little bashful thought:

'Come to think of it, it does sound kinda just like a date since it's just the two of us.'

"Ra-chan, can I ask you something?", she then asked with a serious expression.

"...What is it?", Akira felt a little bewildered seeing her ask him with a serious expression, but let her do so anyways.

"What are you planning to wear for your date?"

"...

...My gray hoodie... What about it?"

Akiko showed him a smile but with an intimidating aura.

Akira slightly shook seeing her like this.

"Let's go shopping this friday. Shall we, Ra-chan?"

Akira wanted to reject her offer but it seems like all hell will break loose if he declines so he just responded:

"Y-yes, mom.", with a slightly uneasy tone.

______________________________________

"Sorry, Aichi, Megumichi... I need to go shopping with my mom today.", Koka told Ai and Megumi in the cafeteria.

"Hey, I got something to do later so I can't go home with you.", Akira told Keima in class.

'Okay!'

'...okay...'

Koka and Akira thought.

'Time to go shopping with mom.'

'...Time to go shopping with mom.'

Koka immediately went to the violet car that just parked near the entrance and let it drove off.

Akira walked towards the exit and made his way to the station...

What he didn't notice though...was hidden between the middle of the buildings where Megumi hid earlier, were three punks that looked like delinquents, staring at Akira's back.

"We found him.", one of them said, while showing an evil grin on his face.

______________________________________

..but slowly, I was starting to understand these feelings.

"RAAA-CHHHAAANNN!!", Akira 's mom said as she ran over, planning to hug Akira yet again.

Akira just placed his palm on her face before she could reach him and stopped her again.

"Let's just go already."

"Are you rejecting my love again, Ra-chan?"

"I'm going home."

"Wait! Ra-chan!"

Akira and Akiko were both in the Denki mall entrance.

Akiko was wearing casual clothes long sleeves and jeans while carrying a handbag.

"Let's get you some nice clothes.", Akiko told Akira.

The two of them, then walked together to some clothing shops.

"Jeez, why don't you be like Akio? Akio's got a great sense of style. There's a reason why he gets more attention than you, you know."

"That just doesn't suit me. I'd be better off wearing a normal T-shirt than leaving the house wearing a blazer."

Akiko and Akira were at an all gender clothing store, looking at clothes there.

"It's been so long since I've bought a man some clothes. I've sent you two some pretty great clothes from UK, why won't you wearing those?"

"I gave them all to Akio. I'm more of a simply suited guy than a fashion geek like him."

"He's not a geek, he's just knowledgable. Here, try these out."

Akiko said as she handed Akira a blue polo.

Akira then walked to the fitting room and started changing into the polo.

"Oh, it's you! It's been so long! How has it been?"

Akira could hear Akiko's voice from the fitting room.

'Is she talking to somebody? Seems like she found someone she knows here... It's gonna be pretty awkward.'

Akira then buttoned up the polo he wore.

""I'm done changing.""

Suddenly, as Akira opened the fitting room curtain, beside him was another person who just finished changing at the other fitting room and also opened the curtain at the same time.

"Akira!"

"Weaken girl!"

Akira and Koka widened their eyes and called each other at the same time.

Koka was wearing what seems to be a a black mini skirt, a white camisole and a violet cardigan.

Akira couldn't help but look at her, especially at her spilling cleavage.

The dress seems rather tight on her chest and her bottom.

'Woah.'

Akira felt a little mesmerized by her who seemed to be having a troubled and blushing look.

Koka also looked at Akira and blushed.

"A-A-Akira! What are you doing here...? Don't tell me you followed me-", Koka said while still showing that troubled look at her.

"Ra-chan, is she the girl you're gonna go on a date with?"

Koka's mom showed a devious grin as Akiko showed a slight smile.

"D-D-D-D-DATE! I-i-it's not a d-d-date!", Koka said trying to profess her complains.

'U-unless... Akira thought it was...'

"So basically, what happened here is that both of us met each other with our moms picking our clothing for us to use tomorrow.", Akira explained with a straight face.

"Nice deduction, Ra-chan!"

"So you're not just looks, huh."

Akiko and Koka's mom said.

Koka had an embarassed look on her face as they were talking.

"Doesn't it make this really awkward, now that we both caught ourselves picking clothes for tomorrow?", asked Akira.

"I don't think so. This way I could see if the man my daughter chose has a great sense of style."

"Mom!", Koka complained to her mom who was already judging Akira with her eyes.

"Well, seems like it's time for me to get serious-"

"No."

Akira showed a sparkling confident smile as if thinking that he was a great fashion connoisseur, but her mom interrupted her.

"Akira's got the worst sense of style."

"What...? Just because I like wearing comfortable stuff like hoodies doesn't mean I'm not stylish!"

"Let's see what's the most stylish outfit you can show us then.", Akiko challenged Akira.

"Oh, you're so on!"

Koka was slightly smiling at this homely scene between Akira and Akiko.

She then walked beside her mother as they watched Akira's gallery of his chosen clothing.

"Black hoodie.", Akira tried posing like a supermodel although failing greatly as he wore a black hoodie.

"No.."

"Black tracksuit.", he posed again with the clothing.

"No. Why don't you pick something actually stylish and not just comfortable.", Akira's mom said with a dead tone.

'Dammit, she's gonna keep rejecting everything I show her...wait, I know!'

Akira came out wearing a black fedora, a black furcoat, black shades and even has black gloves for some reason.

"This is not even my final form."

"Rejected."

Koka's mother was howling of laughter while Koka was just giggling at this scene.

"C-come on! These are really cool, you know!"

"You mean cool for looking like a weirdo. What man in their right mind would walk in public wearing a furc-"

Akiko then stopped as if reminded by someone.

'Actually, I think I kind of remember seeing someone who wore a furcoat. I just forgot who it is.', thought Akira.

...

"What about this black trenchcoat!", Akira went ahead and showed them his last piece.

"Who would wear a trenchcoat for a date especially at this time of the year?"

'Damn you, mom! You guys just don't get the coolness of this outfit.'

"Why does your son love black so much?"

"He's sort of a chuuni."

"I'm not!", Akira looking kind of defeated finally went out of the fitting room, wearing his uniform again.

"Hehehehe.", Koka's mother laughed.

"Unlike you, my daughter has a great sense of style! Come on. Show them, Koka!", she said as she pushed her daughter to get clothes.

"M-mom!"

"Come on, show off to your cute little Akira.", Koka's mom whispered to her ear.

"...b-b-but..."

Koka then changed into the clothing she took.

"HAHAHAHAHA"

"HAHAHAHAHA"

Akiko and Koka's mother were roaring with laughter as Koka showed them her plain shirt with a giant cat face on it.

"I-it's not that bad!"

Akira was snickering to as well.

"A-akira, you idiot!"

"Hey, you were laughing at me too earlier!"

"...b-but that was..."

"I think what you picked was very cute."

"Y-you're mocking me, aren't you?"

"I am."

Koka then suddenly threw tantrum punches at Akira that didn't really hurt him.

"Hey Kotone-chan, don't you think they look like a great couple?", whispered Akiko to Koka's mother, Kotone.

"Yes, they very much do."

Both of them were gently smiling as they saw this scene.

______________________________________

It didn't take long till I finally realized...

"Lingerie store...?", Akira couldn't help but show an incredulous expression when he heard what the two mothers said.

"Yeah, want to help pick out Koka's lucky underwear for tomorrow?", Kotone asked.

"M-mom!"

"Just kidding, you two are such wet blankets. We'll be stopping here to buy some extra lingerie. As you can see, both of have grown a size this year again.", Kotone said while both of them flaunt their chests.

"Uh...yeah."

"Sure, mom."

Akira and Koka then both stood in front of the lingerie shop.

"I have a feeling they did this on purpose.", said Akira.

"Y-yeah...", replied Koka.

Akira felt a little awkward with just them waiting for their moms.

'Man, I think mom's really gonna take her time there...'

"Hey, I'm just gonna take a piss."

'Still as straightforward as ever.', thought Koka with a slight smile.

"Okay!"

Akira then walked to the bathroom to take a break as Koka just stood there.

A minute pass after Akira went to the bathroom...

"Hey, miss. You waitin' for someone?", a gaudy looking punk with sharp eyes, medium length black hair, wearing a black unbuttoned school uniform asked her.

Beside him was a thin skinny looking punk with brown hair.

"...", Koka didn't answer him and just stared at him with an expression of distaste.

"Hey, hey. Don't be like that. Answer me.", the punk, with a smile, put his hand on her shoulder

"Nn!"

Koka started trembling as he put his hand on her shoulder.

"N-no...please... l-leave."

"Oh, come on. Just come and play with-"

"Hey, babe.", Akira suddenly walked quickly and put his arms on her shoulder.

"Who're these stupid looking punks with you?", Akira asked with a slightly annoyed smile.

Koka blushed as she felt his arms on her and suddenly stopped trembling as she stared at Akira.

"Hmmm... You have a boyfriend? We're sorry then. Mr. Boyfriend, can we borrow your girlfriend for a bit?", the punk asked with a smile.

"Sorry, mates. She's got a tight schedule you see? I also think you guys might have a tight schedule too.", Akira replied while keeping his smile.

"Really?", the punk said while keeping his smile.

"Maybe... this will change your mind!"

*TSSSKKK*

Suddenly, the punk's right arm turned into a large bloody blade while his comrade turned his feet into large hooves.

'A villain...?', Akira's eyes suddenly turned serious.

'In the middle of the mall?'

"TAKE THI-", as the villain was about to strike down it's blade to Akira and Koka, Akira started to construct his barrier on his right forearm and took his arms off Koka...but before he could...

"COMING THROUGH!", a man who had rockets for feet, and a gold robot suit charged at both villains.

*BAAAAM!*

"AAUUGGHH!"

"GAAAH!!!"

States, the water bodied teacher, ran after him beside Akira and Koka.

"You're too quick, Jet."

"Nothing is too quick for justice, States."

"Tch- the saviors are here. Run!"

"Get back here!"

Jet ran to follow the villains.

"You kids need to run away too. We'll take it from here."

"...but-"

"No buts! The other heroes are planning to evacuate the people."

"Akira... I think we need to just follow them.", Koka said with a concerned expression while holding his sleeve.

"What's going on here?" Akiko asked as she and Kotone went out of the store.

"We have trouble, we better run away."

"...A villain, huh?"

"Let's go."

______________________________________

"So... We split up halfway earlier and you got to pick which clothes Akira will wear tomorrow, are you sure it's enough to get my Koka's heart to skip a beat?"

"M-mom!"

"I'm sure you've also picked a daring outfit for our darling Koka-chan here that will take Ra-chan's breathe away!"

"I bet."

Akiko and Kotone sat at the front seats of Kotone's car while Koka and Akira sat in the passenger's seats.

They split up earlier to look for clothes just to not spoil the surprise they'll be having for their date tomorrow.

"You better tell my Koka how cute she is in her outfit tomorrow."

"I'm sure her cat outfit would blow my mind.", Akira teased.

"H-hey! It was a cute shirt!"

"It might be, but mine's still cooler."

"No, it's lame."

"Yeah, it's lame."

Both Kotone and Akiko rejected Akira's opinion.

"I..t-think it was kinda cool."

Akira then turned at Koka, who was slightly looking down.

"T-that doesn't mean I think you're cool or anything! I-I just think your outfit was cool."

"Yeah, yeah.", Akira replied.

"...

...By the way..."

"...What is it?", Akira asked.

"T-thanks for saving me again.",

"It was the heroes who saved us. That large blade might've killed us, you-"

Koka then closed in on Akira with cute big eyes.

"Akira...thank you."

"N-no problem."

The two moms smiled while listening to this scene.

"I'm looking forward to tomorrow.", Akira said with a slight smile.

"I-I'm not really looking forward to it... or anything...", Koka replied to him with a blushing shy face.

______________________________________

Koka and Kotone waved them goodbye as they left Akira and Akiko by the front of their door.

"Koka, huh...", Akiko poked her elbow on Akira's chest with a teasing expression.

"Yeah, yeah. Say whatever you want."

It just hit evening at that time as they stepped through the front door.

*Knock knock knock*

Akiko knocked on the door, but no one answered.

"Akio's not here yet? That's strange."

Akira, who was a bit bored waiting for Akiko to open their front door, turned his eyes towards the sky.

'Those villains, they aren't connected to the one I fought with, are they?', he thought.

He then noticed something else...

'It's cloudy.'

______________________________________

*splash splash splash*

Koka, who was wearing a violet cardigan, a white camisole and a black miniskirt was staring at the window.

It was currently raining.

Yesterday, the weather was kind of fine...but just after the day passed, it started raining heavily.

"I know your date didn't continue, Koka, but you just need to accept that things won't always go your way.", Kotone advised her with a concerned expression.

Koka was sat on an expensive looking chair staring at her room window.

Even after hearing her mother's words, she never said a word back and kept looking at the window.

Kotone looked concerned, but thought that she just have to leave her alone now.

"Don't think about it too much, okay? Go downstairs once you get hungry."

She then left her room and closed the door.

...

["Yeah, I am. Wanna treat me the meal you promised me?"]

'I...even gave it my all asking him out...'

["I'm sure you've also picked a daring outfit for our darling Koka-chan here that'll take Ra-chan's breathe away!"

"I bet."]

'...Mom and I took a long time picking this outfit...'

Koka seemed like she was about to cry while looking outside.

["I'm looking forward to tomorrow."]

'Akira...'

...

..

.

'I...'

["I'm definitely going. No matter what happens."]

...

'Wait...

...

...could it be...?'

______________________________________

"Koka, I'm sure not even your Akira would walk in this heavy rain just to go on a date with you."

Kotone and Koka were inside Kotone's car as she drove to the park.

"No! He promised! Akira's the type of guy who'd worry so much about others, although he tries to not show it. He probably thought I might be waiting there in the rain as well..."

"I just have a feeling that we might just be wasting our-"

Suddenly, as they reached the park...

...they noticed a familiar figure, sitting on a bench.

Raindrops were falling from his smooth black hair to the blazer he was wearing.

"N-no way.", Kotone felt a little embarassed while he noticed Akira sitting there with his arms crossed.

Koka's eyes widened as she saw him and a slight smile was shown on her face.

What I actually feel about him...

"Mom! Stop the car!"

"Wait, Koka! Get an umbrella!"

Koka immediately opened the car and ran to Akira in the middle of the rain.

"Y-You idiot!"

She immediately took off the cardigan she was wearing and tried covering Akira with it while showing a worried expression.

"Hey! What about you!"

Akira took off his blazer and put in on her.

"You were in the rain for so long, you idiot! You need it more!",

"You just lunged right in the rain! And besides, I'm a guy, I can handle this much!"

"Hey, you two lovebirds! Get in here before you two get sick!"

Kotone called them to her car.

"Haaah. I thought you guys weren't gonna come anymore.", Akira said with a tired expression as he walked to the car while using Koka's cardigan as a shield to the rain.

"I wouldn't just leave you here...especially since you told me you'd definitely go.", Koka said with a worried expression while using Akira's blazer a shield to the rain.

Both of them entered Kotone's car, wet and tired.

"Since you're both too wet now, how about we stop you by our home, Akira-chan. Might as well have your date there.", she said while winking at them from the driver's seat.

"Yeah, whatever. I just want that meal she promised me."

Koka giggled as she heard Akira, she then showed a gentle smile while looking down and blushing.

'He's an idiot, alright.'

______________________________________

It took me a while but I finally...

Akira had an incredulous expression as he bathed in a large expensive bath.

'I can't believe they talked me into this...', he thought.

[Akira, who was at the entrance of Koka's house was holding a towel and a tracksuit on his hands.

"Ma'am, what's this for?"

"Hmmm... The towel's to dry you off and the tracksuit's a change of clothes."

"I just want to eat that meal, I'll take a bath in my home later."

"Oh come on, don't be so stiff. You'll get a cold if you stay wet like that."

"...but-"

"If you don't go in, I'm gonna make Koka strip down her clothes right here right now."

"H-hey!"

"I'm not going after all."

"A-A-A-Akira!"

Kotone then pushed Akira's back.

"Just go already."

"Hey!"

"I promise you'll eat a delicious meal later. So just do it!"]

'I've never really took a bath in a girl's place before, except for Aunt Kana's place. Bathing in a classmate's especially a female one's bathroom makes me feel kinda nervous.'

He then lied his head on the thick pole in the middle of the bath.

'I know all those cliches though. I've locked the door to make sure noone's getting through as well.'

*Click*

'Huh?'

Suddenly, someone slided the door to the baths and came in, wearing only a towel.

"W-W-WHAT ARE YOU DOING...!?"

"S-s-s-shut up! I-I-I-I'm really nervous too, you know."

Koka, who wore nothing but a towel, entered the bathroom. On the door of the bathroom, was a key that she used to unlock the door.

Her plump but smooth and long legs shined with every step she took.

Sweat was also dropping on her cleavage as her chest bounced with every move.

Her ample buttocks was almost coming out of her towel as well.

She looked like a supermodel that stood in front of Akira wearing nothing but a towel.

'SH-SHIT!'

A picture of a soft limp banana suddenly hardened in Akira's head.

"WHA-WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!? IF YOU WANNA TAKE A BATH, I'LL GET OUT!"

Akira stood up as to leave the baths...

"W-w-wait... A-at least give me a few minutes. I just want to... tell you something..."

Koka showed a pleading expression on her face that made it hard for Akira to reject her.

'Damn it, woman. I'm holding back as hard as I can right now...'

She kept looking at him with that face...

"Alright...just... m-make it quick."

______________________________________

I finally...

Akira and Koka sat back to back from each other on the middle of the baths.

Both of them were blushing hard.

"R-Remember when Nagai-san touched my shoulder and...made me... scared...", Koka asked.

"...Y-yeah, what about it?"

"Both that time, the time when I was targeted by Ryo and the time when I was threatened in the mall... they all have the same thing in common."

"...

...It was...scary?"

"W-well, there's that...but that's not the only thing."

"...They were all done by idiots?"

Koka giggled after hearing this.

"Ehehe. Nagai-san will be angry when he hears that you called him an idiot."

"Well, he is sort of an idiot."

She then giggled again.

"That's not it though..."

"...then...what was it?", Akira asked her.

From behind her, she then reached for Akira's hand.

'I'm usually scared when a guy does it, but when it comes to you...'

"Your touch always calmed me down."

That's when...

She said with a blushing smile.

Akira's face became sort of red after hearing this and he made a slightly nervous expression.

'W-why's she holding my hand in this situation...?'

"Y-yeah..."

Koka's face was really red and it felt like this was just about time for her to say it...

...understand these feelings of my mine...

....

"And I think... it's all because..."

I'm...

"I..."

really really...

"...caught your idiocy!"

...in love with you...

"Wait, what?"

"Caught you!"

Suddenly, Koka turned around and hugged Akira from behind.

'B-b-b-Boobs!'

In Akira's mind, the stiff banana grew even longer.

"Thank you, Akira..."

Akira.

"...

...

...y-yeah..."

She kept hugging him...until finally...

She pulled away from him, completely red and steaming from her face and had an embarassed expression.

"I-I-I'm gonna go now!"

"Y-yeah..."

Koka then ran out of the baths.

'I gotta take a break...', Akira thought with a red and tired face.

______________________________________

"Okay, take care!", Kotone said as she saw Akira off.

Kotone and Koka were in Kotone's car as she dropped Akira off in front of their house.

Koka had a red expression in her face and seemed to still have that embarassed look on her that doesn't seem like it's about to disappear anytime soon.

Akira looked slightly tired as well as he stood and waved them goodbye.

'Today was a long day..', Akira thought as he was about to walk to his front gate.

'I might as well rest, and practice using that claw for tomorrow...'

Kotone and Koka already drove off as Akira took one step in front of their house's door...when suddenly...

*CCCCCCHHIIIIWWWWW!*

A swarm of spears was suddenly thrown to Akira.

'SHIT!'

Akira noticed this immediately, and planned to construct a shield on the right moment when...

*SSSHWW!*

A transparent barrier suddenly showed in front of him...as a large man wearing a furcoat showed up while holding his left palm in front of them that created that barrier...

'Who...?'

"X-tinct-sama!", Strategiser or Strategist, Akira's psychology teacher who was a middle aged who had brown pineapple hair, wore an office outfit and glasses and had a buxom body called on the large man.

'X-tinct? The top savior? What is he...?'

The figure of one villain was seen on the top of the rooftop showing fear.

"That's-"

Suddenly, before the villain could escape... X-tinct held out his other palm and...

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM*

An extremely large white laser shot out of his palm and struck the villain striking it up reaching to the sky.

'Holy shit...!'

After his shot, nothing was left anymore of the villain, but his ashes.

'Did he just...kill that guy...?'

Akira's eyes were wide open as he watched the whole scene.

'This...

...is the top savior?'

"Akira Ishikawa.", the white haired, red eyes, muscular savior wearing a furcoat, turned to him and called his name.

"W-what is it?"

Even just by looking at him, Akira could feel the strong intimidating aura that man carries.

'What does he want from someone like me...?'

"Be my support for tomorrow."

...

..

.

"Eh?"
