◎Kiss (Two-in-One)◎
This suggestion seems very useful.
Yuuki Matsuna's eyes suddenly lit up. She turned around, pressed down on Inuyama Toji's shoulders, and said with a hint of excitement, "Toji, let's test it now!"
Dog Curly was taken aback.
[How does Matsuna want to test?]
"Hmm...that's a good question." Yuuki Matsuna frowned in annoyance, then suddenly remembered something and slapped her forehead. "Thorn, let's kiss!"
In shoujo manga, kissing is the most heart-fluttering gesture.
Unlike hugging and holding hands, kissing is an act that only couples in love will do. If the other person is not someone you like, then kissing them will not bring you excitement, but rather something worse and more unpleasant.
"Disgust".
No one wants to kiss someone they don't like.
"Bokuyu Hana!" Dog-roll Thorn's eyes widened. He shook his head several times, forcefully expressing his refusal, as if afraid the other party hadn't noticed.
“Thorn hates me?” Yuuki Matsuna blinked, her eyes slightly downcast, her head drooping. “I thought Thorn still liked me. If Thorn hates me, then forget it.”
It seems that in Yuuki Matsuna's mind, disliking equals hating.
This is a misconception, because dislike encompasses many types, but she didn't realize that. She lowered her head, a slight ripple appearing in her eyes.
[That's not true! I don't dislike Matsuna.]
Seeing that the other person was really frustrated, Gou Juanji quickly typed on his phone and held it out to them.
"So that means you like it?" Yuki Matsuna looked up again.
Dog-Roll Thorn's kindness gave the girl, who had a misunderstanding, an opportunity. She leaned forward slightly, pressed Dog-Roll Thorn's shoulder, and actually kissed him.
Lips and teeth touched.
A strange yet soft texture.
Unlike feelings of disgust, what rises from the bottom of my heart is a different kind of emotion, an emotion that makes my heart beat rapidly.
The youthful face was right in front of him, which made his heart flutter even more. The boy's eyes widened, and surprise was written all over them, but for some reason, he did not push him away.
Why not push it away?
The sensation of their first encounter left Yuuki Matsuna's mind blank for a moment. They remained in that position for quite some time before she finally pulled away from Kōmaki Tsubaki's lips.
"It doesn't feel like I hate it, does it?" she commented. "I genuinely like Thorn from the bottom of my heart."
She pointed to her heart again: "Because it's beating violently here, for Thorn."
Dog-Curl Thorn swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Reason vanished for the moment. He opened his mouth slightly, revealing a scarlet tongue with runes inside his lips. This time, he took the lead.
He wrapped his arms around Yuuki Matsuna's waist, pulled her tightly into his embrace, cupped her face in his hands, and kissed her.
Unlike before, this time it wasn't just lips and teeth touching; the tongue also entered the mouth, creating a completely different sensation.
This time, it was Yuuki Matsuna's turn to be surprised.
The herbivorous senior suddenly turned into a carnivorous boy, which would surprise anyone, but she didn't really want to push him away because she was also enjoying it and wanted to continue.
But a voice that shouldn't have been there rang out.
"What are you doing—!"
A shocked and angry voice rang out from not far away. Before Yuuki Matsuna could even look over, the boy grabbed her arm and pulled her up. She turned around and finally saw who this person was.
It is Fushiguro Megumi.
Anger appeared on his face.
Why are you angry?
The sensation of the kiss made Matsuna Yuuki's mind go blank. She stared blankly at Megumi Fushiguro and answered her question in a slow voice, "Ah, it's Megumi."
"We're doing an experiment, an experiment about whether I like thorns."
Why is there no answer?
Why is there still an angry expression on your face? Haven't you already explained it?
Yuki Matsuna grabbed Fushiguro Megumi's wrist, trying to reach out and touch her cheek, but Fushiguro Megumi dodged her.
His hand froze in mid-air, too embarrassed to do anything.
She tilted her head: "Yesterday Hui told me that liking someone is unique, so I came to ask Ji what that means."
"That's what Thorn said too, so to test whether I liked Thorn or not, I kissed Thorn."
She paused for a moment, then asked tentatively in a questioning tone, "Does Hui want to kiss me? I also want to know if I like Hui or not."
Her reply was a furious, clenched-teeth voice: "Who wants to kiss you?"
Why is Hui always angry?
*
"Little Huihui-chan—"
Matsuna Yuki resorted to his old tricks again.
She leaned over Fushiguro Megumi's desk, staring intently at her, but this time the other woman was much angrier than usual, and no matter what she said, Fushiguro Megumi didn't say a word.
He seemed determined to completely ignore Matsuna Yuki.
"Seriously, if you get angry all the time, Hui will become an unpopular boy." Helpless, she could only return to her seat for the time being.
She nudged Yoshino Junpei, who was sitting in front of her: "Junpei, can you say a good word for me? Kei gets angry with me every day. Even if I have a good temper, I can't stand it, right?"
Fushiguro Megumi spoke up before Yoshino Junpei could: "I didn't make you put up with it either."
He was genuinely angry this time: "Aren't you going to reflect on your own actions at all?"
What should we reflect on?
Yuuki Matsuna didn't think she had done anything wrong at all. She blinked and asked bluntly, "Was there anything wrong with me kissing Thorn?"
Now Yoshino Junpei understands why Fushiguro Megumi was so angry.
"Yuki-kun, you...you kissed Inu-maki-senpai?" His voice trembled slightly. "Are you and Inu-maki-senpai a couple?"
“No,” Yuuki Matsuna said matter-of-factly. “Does that mean you can’t kiss if you’re not in a relationship?”
These words shocked Yoshino Junpei. He gasped and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Tsk." Fukuguro Megumi clicked her tongue. "Scum."
This remark angered Yuuki Matsuna.
"Why are you saying that about me?" Yuuki Matsuna stood up and said with dissatisfaction, "Megumi is so strange. She clearly likes me, but she gets angry with me every day, and now she's calling me a scumbag."
"If you keep doing this, I won't like you anymore."
Yoshino Junpei was taken aback.
He mechanically turned his head and looked at Fukuro Megumi, whose face had completely darkened. Just as he was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, the classroom door was suddenly pushed open.
The assistant supervisor called out Yoshino Junpei's name from the doorway: "Yoshino-kun—"
"Come here for a moment, there's a problem with your transfer paperwork that I need you to resolve."
After Yoshino Junpei left, the atmosphere in the class became even more awkward.
Yuuki Matsuna sat down angrily, turned to look out the window, and suddenly said, "If Megumi keeps doing this, I really won't like her anymore."
This threat has no power whatsoever.
But this time, Fushiguro Megumi's answer was completely different from before: "It's not fair."
"What?" Yuuki Matsuna turned her head, frowning as she was about to ask Fushiguro Megumi what she meant, but just as she turned her head, Fushiguro Megumi grabbed her wrist and pressed her against the window.
The boy holding her wrist had a gloomy expression: "Why is it Senior Dog Roll? Didn't I ask you this question? Then why did you go to Senior Dog Roll for the test instead of me?"
The reason for being angry is actually this?
She was about to explain, but the moment she opened her mouth, the other person took the opportunity to enter her.
Unlike the feeling of dog-rolled thorns, Fushiguro Megumi's kiss had a cooler, more detached quality, just like the person herself.
The kiss, restrained yet tinged with a hint of irrationality, seemed to indicate that the person in front of him had been holding back for a long time, or perhaps was angry. But whatever the reason, it showed that the person in front of him had temporarily lost his normal rationality due to some dark emotions.
She paused slightly, then began to try to respond to the kiss.
Awkward kisses and awkward responses.
Seemingly because this wasn't the best, secluded place for a kiss, Fushiguro Megumi released Yuuki Matsuna, opened his mouth, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Want to continue?"
The girl's misconception gave him an opportunity, and he asked, "Want to try kissing some more and continue your 'test'?"
The answer was as expected.
The girl looked at him, her lips still damp with warm saliva: "...Yes."
*
Is the stairwell the most suitable place for a kiss?
Looking at Fushiguro Megumi's serious face, Yuuki Matsuna was momentarily lost in thought, briefly pondering the question in her mind.
The other person noticed that she was lost in thought, frowned in displeasure, pressed down on Yuuki Matsuna's face, and pulled her back to her senses.
"Wait...wait a minute." Yuki Matsuna was having trouble breathing.
She pushed Fushiguro away, taking a break, but he grabbed her wrist, looking at her with a hint of doubt and undisguised aggression in his eyes.
Is Hui really that kind of persona?
"I...I'm a little confused," Yuki Matsuna said slowly.
She swallowed hard, looking at Fushiguro Megumi with caution and care: "Megumi said that liking someone is unique and only applies to one person, but whether it's kissing Thorn or kissing Megumi, I don't feel any disgust in my heart."
"My test results all showed my heart was pounding violently. Doesn't that mean I like him?" she muttered to herself. "Don't I think I've fallen for Thorn and Megumi?"
“…No.” Fukuro Megumi’s eyes dimmed.
He opened his mouth, playing the role of a con artist: "The tests weren't enough, so we can't make a judgment."
He lifted Yuuki Matsuna's face, his eyes flashing with intense emotion: "We need to conduct more tests before you can determine whether you like me or not."
"But that's not enough."
A secret, repressed, and anxious kiss.
Whose needs are they not enough?
Yoshino Junpei stood at the top of the stairs, listening to the untimely sound, and felt as if he had learned something he shouldn't have known.
Seeing that neither of his two classmates were in the classroom, Yoshino Junpei originally intended to go out and look for them, but he did not expect to stumble upon this scene, nor did he expect to hear his usually serious male classmate become a con artist at this moment.
He clenched his fist, then relaxed it.
*
Yuki Matsuna was in a daze.
She had been in a daze ever since that incident happened that morning.
Her mind went blank, sometimes recalling her kiss with Inu-chan, sometimes with Fushiguro Megumi. This feeling was so strange that it made her, who was usually talkative and even a bit noisy, unable to utter a single word, and she couldn't think of anything else.
Yuki Matsuna squatted blankly at the door of the first-year classroom, staring at the floor in front of her.
He looks like an idiot.
This is the scene that Yoshino Junpei saw.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward anyway.
Upon seeing a pair of shoes appear in front of her, Yuuki Matsuna looked up. When she saw Yoshino Junpei, she let out a blank "Ah," as if she had just realized who was in front of her: "Ah, it's Junpei."
Junpei Yoshino:…
He crouched down, hugged his knees, and looked at the completely stunned Yuuki Matsuna: "Yuuki-kun, what's wrong?"
The other party did not reply to him immediately.
She seemed confused about what was wrong with her: "Shunping, so this is what kissing feels like."
“I had only ever seen this kind of thing in comics before, but when I actually experienced it myself, I had a sudden realization: ‘Ah, so this is what kissing is.’”
She tilted her head and continued to describe her feelings about the kiss: "It felt magical. My heart was racing, and I could only see the other person. It felt like I got excited in some other parts of my body too."
After saying this, Yuuki Matsuna touched her lips, as if savoring the kiss she had shared with the two of them.
Yoshino Junpei, who was baffled by her kiss as a thank you, was speechless for a moment. He didn't understand what this complicated emotion in his heart was.
After a moment of silence, he asked, "Yuki-kun, why did you kiss Inu-maki-senpai and Fushiguro-kun?"
"To confirm whether I really like them," Yuuki Matsuna frowned slightly. "Megumi and Toji both said that liking someone only applies to one person, so to confirm whether I really like them, I did the same thing to them."
Suddenly remembering something, she turned to look at Yoshino Junpei: "Junpei, would you like to give it a try too?"
Yoshino Junpei was taken aback.
Whether or not to try it, and whether or not to agree, is a choice that tests his conscience.
In this situation, refusing seems to be the only option that doesn't violate one's conscience or the girl's trust.
But since both Inugami-senpai and Fushiguro-kun agreed, isn't it normal for him to agree as well?
Yoshino Junpei opened his mouth slightly, his voice low: "...Is it alright?"
He cunningly presented Yuki Matsuna with another choice in a different form.
The answer he chose was: "Of course!"
The girl's voice accompanied her movements as she moved closer to Yoshino Junpei, but just as her face was inches away and she was about to kiss Yoshino Junpei's lips, this action was forcibly stopped by an outsider.
"What are you doing?" Gojo Satoru asked.
He lifted Yuki Matsuna by the neck, raising her into the air. He was smiling, but for some reason, his expression still seemed gloomy.
He then asked, "Were you two about to kiss? Wasn't that a bit inappropriate for a school setting?"
The cunning adults find seemingly legitimate reasons for themselves, saying grandly, "How surprising! Naughty children who want to do such things need to be punished!"
Before he finished speaking, Yuki Matsuna had already disappeared from Yoshino Junpei's sight.
Yoshino Junpei touched his lips, lost in thought.
After a long while, he belatedly realized that he should tell Fushiguro about Yuuki being taken away by Gojo-sensei.
*
"Then, shouldn't Yuuki give me an explanation?" Gojo Satoru said with a smile.
He threw Yuki Matsuna onto the sofa, the force of which made her rub her sore nose.
While rubbing her nose, Yuuki Matsuna glared at Gojo Satoru, unaware that tears were involuntarily welling up in her eyes due to the pain.
"What is the teacher saying?" she asked, confused. "What kind of explanation do I need to give the teacher?"
"Hmm... I'm not sure if he's pretending not to understand or if he really didn't understand what the teacher was saying." Gojo Satoru was still smiling, but Yuuki Matsuna felt that he was emanating black energy.
What is this? The ultimate scene of darkness?
"Teacher, are you turning evil?" she asked, frowning as she added, "You're almost 30 years old, so stop acting like a child and trying to turn evil. It's a bit immature."
Gojo Satoru could no longer laugh.
He stopped forcing a smile, his face darkening as he walked over to Yuuki Matsuna and asked her the question he had just asked again: "Yuuki, you owe me an explanation."
The question was phrased in a declarative tone.
It looks a bit scary.
Unsure, let me take another look.
Yuki Matsuna rubbed her eyes, afraid that she hadn't seen clearly.
Has the strongest really turned evil?
It's over, the world is going to end.
To prevent the world from truly being destroyed, Matsuna Yuuki tried to calm her strongest emotions: "Teacher, you have to tell me what kind of explanation you want so I can know what to say."
“Indeed.” Gojo Satoru misunderstood her meaning. “It takes time to organize your thoughts and weave a lie. Yuuki is so stupid, it’s impossible for him to do something so difficult in such a short time.”
Upon hearing him call her stupid, Yuuki Matsuna's eyes widened instantly, ready to retort, but Mitsuru grabbed her chin.
“That doesn’t seem right either,” he said.
"Yuki isn't such a stupid child; she's quite smart. Otherwise, how could she have made a male classmate who just enrolled in school fall for her and want to kiss her in just a few days?"
He reached out and violently rubbed his fingers against Yuuki Matsuna's lips: "New students can kiss, but what about the others? Has Yuuki already kissed anyone else?"
"Have you kissed Otsuko many times? You've been with Otsuko for a while now, haven't you? Oh, and Megumi too, since you're classmates. Poor Inu-maki, she hasn't had many opportunities to spend time with Yuuki and the other one."
Matsuna Yuuki felt a little scared by her self-absorbed words.
She swallowed hard, bracing herself against the sofa as she tried to back away, but Gojo Satoru saw through her intention.
He pressed down on Yuuki Matsuna's hand, interlocking their fingers, and asked the same question again: "But I don't think Yuuki would do these things, so give me an explanation, why did you kiss Yoshino?"
This time, Matsuna Yuuki finally understood.
"Because I want to confirm it." She tentatively revealed her reason, "I want to confirm whether I like Shunping, so I want to kiss him."
"Oh—" Gojo Satoru drawled, his tone strange, "Why would you come up with something like that?"
“Because kissing is the best way to confirm whether you like someone.” She frowned. “Other actions are fine for ordinary friends, but kissing is not.”
"No one can kiss someone they hate; only when kissing someone you like can you feel genuine happiness and a rapidly beating heart."
“That sounds reasonable.” Gojo Satoru nodded, seemingly agreeing with her statement.
He curled his lips into a smile, pointing to his own lips with a hint of malice and unreadable emotion: "Then why not try it with the strongest? The strongest will definitely be the one who makes Yuuki's heart flutter the most~"
"After kissing the strongest, Yuuki can fully understand her own feelings~"
An attitude that leaves no room for refusal.
Gojo Satoru was a free spirit. Before Yuuki Matsuna could even say "okay," he had already made the choice for her, pressing the back of her head and kissing her.
Adults' kisses are definitely different.
It's less a kiss and more a plunder.
The strongest is undoubtedly a carnivore. Seemingly because the eyepatch was blocking his vision, Gojo Satoru took off the eyepatch, revealing his indescribably beautiful azure eyes.
As if he wanted to see all of the other person's expression, he didn't close his eyes at all when kissing, and just looked at Yuuki Matsuna with those eyes.
Yuki Matsuna felt that the other party had seen through everything about her.
It was the look in her eyes as she stared at her prey. At that moment, she suddenly understood why rabbits on the grassland had a sense of crisis called instinct when they were being watched by a leopard, urging them to run away.
Because she, too, felt the same sense of crisis.
A sense of crisis permeated her entire body. Gojo Satoru was right; Yuuki Matsuna's heart was indeed pounding violently, but it was different from the heartbeat she felt when kissing Inuyama Toshiro and Fushiguro Megumi.
This rapid heartbeat was a reminder that she was in a very disadvantageous position and that she had to escape quickly, that she had to raise all her defenses and flee from the person in front of her.
Rather than feeling excited, this kiss was more accurately described as one of fear and dread.
I can hardly breathe.
Yuki Matsuna tried to push Gojo Satoru away, but he wouldn't let her. He grabbed Yuki Matsuna's waist and pressed her down even harder.
She had nowhere to escape, and she couldn't push Gojo Satoru away either; it seemed that her only option was to let him continue.
I'm going to die.
She frantically patted Gojo Satoru's back, her survival instinct driving her to even kick his legs, but he remained unmoved.
Fortunately, there was a knock on the door.
“Gojo-sensei—” came Fushiguro Megumi’s voice.
"Teacher, are you inside? Is Yuki alright? I can explain what I just did!" Yoshino Junpei's voice was panicked.
Gojo Satoru finally stopped moving.
As if reborn, Yuki Matsuna broke free from Gojo Satoru's embrace. Using both her hands and feet, she crawled up the sofa to the other end, looking at Gojo Satoru with fear on her face.
"It seems like I've gone a bit too far," Gojo Satoru said, rubbing his head.
Although that's what he said, his expression was that of someone who had just tasted their prey.
He laughed again: "Yuki, were you scared? I told you, your heart only beats wildly when you kiss me, right?"
It sounded like a voice from hell.

Time to run away!
