Episode 9: Changing Clothes Panic
As I was on my way out to the nurse’s office to get changed, Saki insisted on coming with, but Ranko’s overbearing spirit managed to quiet her down. I think Ranko just wanted to pull one over on Saki more than anything else. Ranko had a firm hold on my hand, so I quietly followed after her to the nurse’s office. After the echo of the knock against the door faded down the hallway, we opened the door.
“It looks like the nurse isn’t here.”
“You’re…..right”
“Then let’s just head in.”
Unlike yesterday, the nurse’s office was empty for us. The teacher who’s supposed to be in here isn’t, and since school hasn’t even started yet, all the bed curtains were wide open with nobody resting on the beds.
“You can change your clothes behind these curtains.”
Ranko guided me to the front of a bed she had ensured was made up. As she put one hand on the curtain, she used the other to pull another towel out of her bag.
“I’ll get changed….so don’t sexually harass me, okay?”
“You want me to attack you instead then?”
“No, that isn’t needed either.”
“Then hurry up and dry yourself already. You won’t make it to morning homeroom at this rate.”
“R-Right”
I was a bit taken aback. I guess being a perverted lesbian really is just a pretence, and deep down, she’s as cool as she always was.
“Good. I’ll straighten out your uniform for you, so pass it over to me when you’ve taken it all off.”
“Okay, thank you.”
She was holding a hair dryer from I have no idea where. I’ve gotta say, Ranko is a lot more of an adult than I’ve given her credit for. I’m surprised to see how thoughtful she is.
But, I better get this done quickly. I removed my skirt first before slipping on the pair of tracksuit pants. I then slid my blazer off my shoulders like it was a race to see how fast I could finish.
Out of respect for her show of kindness, I wanted to hand things over to Ranko for her help cleaning. Once I was decent again, I opened the curtain to hand off my first round of clothes, and…..
“Huh? Where’d she go?”
“Over here”
Ranko’s voice came from a completely different direction than what I had thought. They had moved onto one of the adjacent beds with the curtain drawn. I have no idea when she moved.
Without thinking anything of it, I pulled back the curtain…..
Bare skin.
Shoulder blades.
A bra lined with mature black lace that stands out even when looking from behind.
Her skin may have been a little pale, but a well-toned, muscular back drew my eyes in and focused my gaze there――――.
In a single breath I had that curtain closed back up again.
“Sorry. I didn’t know you were changing too.”
“You can come in if you want”
“No, I’ll wait for you over here…..”
I swiftly made my escape back to the bed I had occupied. While wondering why she needed to change her clothes, I continued to change out of my soiled blouse. I set it across the cot before realizing that just by looking at it, you could tell the shirt Ranko had given me was too big. Well, there is a height difference there. If I borrowed a shirt from Saki, it would’ve probably been too tight with how slim she is, so this is better. Even discounting that though, Ranko really is the only one who could help me out with something like this. A small chest…..No, I mean, sometimes to solve a problem you have to stick out your chest and make small sacrifices. It’s not like I’m trying to say that Saki has a small chest or anything of the sort.
“I’m ready Yuriha”
“Okay, give me a minute”
When I did eventually hear Ranko call for me, I quickly covered up the upper half of my body with the towel I was using to dry myself, and I stuck part of me out of the curtains to hand over my blazer and skirt.
“Sorry for just opening your curtain without even saying anything earlier, and WHY ARE YOU NAKED!? That’s not even close to being okay!”
“Hm? Oh you can go ahead and open your curtains. I’ve already made all the preparations for us to have sex.”
“Sex….”
My eye twitched as I pulled the curtain over to block her out of my sight.
“Two people doing something while they’re both naked…..that something should be pretty obvious shouldn’t it? It’s still too soon for you to be putting on that jersey.”
“It’s not obvious, and it’s not too soon you damn pervert.”
“It’s fine. I’m not actually naked. I’ll still wear my panties since I’ll be on top.”
“What is that supposed to change!?”
“Now come and become like the day you were born. I’ll open the door to a wonderful garden for you.”
“That door’s staying closed! Geez, you said you weren’t going to attack me or anything…..”
“It’s not considered an attack if it’s between two consenting people.”
“And where did you get my consent from….”
I was right from the beginning, this whole thing was just another opportunity for her to act as the perverted lesbian. Is this supposed to be a joke? A lesbian joke? It’s not really funny though is it?
Well, setting sexuality aside, knowing how much of a narcissist Ranko is and how considerate she can be, I can’t deny the chance that she really is just trying to make me laugh by showing off her beautiful body. It’s just a bit cheap selling off your body like this for one joke….
“To begin with, isn’t it weird to be talking about consent between two people when they aren’t even dating!”
“Huh….? So then….. I see”
Ranko sounded disappointed, almost as if my serious retort had hurt. D-Does that mean she was seriously expecting me to say yes to sex here…..? Scary….
I heard the sound of a hair dryer blowing from behind the curtains. It must be Ranko working on drying my blazer. It’s one of her strong points that she can always manage to follow through on what she says no matter what even when she was just acting like a crazy person a second before.
After a couple minutes had passed, the sound of the hair dryer disappeared and was replaced by the sound of cloth being whipped into the air. Ranko must be trying to get the wrinkles out. The reason why she’d go that far is something I played with in my mind as I finished drying myself before slipping on a baggy shirt. It’s a little too big on me though and makes it hard to walk, so I rolled up the hem some until it stopped at my waist.
“Are you done Ranko?”
I cautiously opened the curtains once again while calling out to her…..
Wearing the blazer….Ranko is literally wrapped up in my blazer. And I know it’s my blazer because I can see the spare hairpin I keep in my breast pocket sticking out. My blazer with nothing but pale white skin underneath…..
“What are you doing….”
“Right now, I am wrapped up in Yuriha. It’s like the morning after a night of passion.”
“No, you can’t have a morning after with no night before. Anyway, give me my blazer back.”
“Fufu. So you’re finally getting in the mood. I didn’t expect you to undress me just as I was covering up….. All right. I’m not mentally prepared just yet, but I can deal with it if you’re this keen to get started. Do you want to enjoy taking it off me?”
“Ah….! Don’t take it off right now! You’re not even wearing a bra!”
“So you’re the type who prefers to undress yourself. But I’m a top. Having someone else undress me just wouldn’t make sense.”
“Like I need to know that!”
While continuing to play out this ridiculous bit, I overheard a couple of voices coming from the hallway.
“Oh no! It’s Saki and Honoka! We can’t let them see us like this!!!”
“Now, let’s join together and take the first step in building a wonderful future together.”
“This isn’t the time for that you idiot! …..Uwa!”
Ranko got too into the act and pushed me down into the bed, but to counter her, I used my feet to pull up the blanket and completely cover her from view.
“Excuse meeee! And, there’s nobody here!”
“The nurse…..isn’t here. But where are Yuri-chan and Ran-chan~?”
“A bed…..I see shoes…..there!”
“We found you Yuzurin!”
I could hear the footsteps making their way over from the other side of the curtain. How are things getting this out of hand!?
“You’re so intense right from the start Yuriha”
“Will you just shut up and stay quiet!”
It felt like I was shouting at the top of my lungs despite my words being little more than a hiss. And then in that exact instant――――！
“Open!”
